Chapter 688 Who is taking advantage
In a narrow sense, Hetian jade refers to jade produced in the Hotan area of Xinjiang. However, in a broad sense, any jade with a hardness of between 0-5 and a tremolite component accounting for more than 98% can be called Hetian jade, so there is also a distinction between Qinghai materials, Russian materials and Korean materials.
Russian materials are mainly mountain materials. Compared with Xinjiang Hetian jade, its mineral particles are slightly coarse. Therefore, the appearance is not delicate enough and the warm feeling is insufficient. Because of the poor oiliness, it is slightly dry and part of it has a little porcelain characteristic. In jargon, the jade color is "white" but "no spirit".
In addition, due to the thicker structure of the Russian material and being mostly affected by later tectonic movements, its toughness is much inferior to that of Xinjiang Hetian jade. The reaction is that it is easy to collapse during fine processing, and the weight of its jade pieces of the same size is slightly lower than that of Hetian jade.
But this does not mean that there is no good product for Russian materials. In fact, there are a very small number of top-quality white jade mountain materials among Russian materials. The quality is not only not inferior to Xinjiang mountain materials at all, but sometimes it can even surpass the quality of top mountain streams!
The large Russian material that Li Yi just saw was this kind of material. Of course, it is impossible for the whole material to be of this quality, but there is a small part of it in a corner of the material, which has been alienated into this top-quality white jade mountain material.
But the material was too big, so even this small part was discussed in units of 100 kilograms. Li Yi estimated that if all of them were untied, the ones that could be picked out would probably exceed 300 kilograms!
The reason for this situation is that this piece of material is too big. As mentioned in the previous article, there is a type of mountain material called stone mixed jade, also called stagnant stone jade, which can present two textures of jade and stone on the same piece of jade material. This piece is.
Some people think that the reason why this kind of jade appears is that it is because of the movement of the earth's crust that squeezes several different jades and stones together. In other words, this kind of jade is actually not just one piece, but a combination of multiple jades or stones.
Let’s not talk about whether this statement has scientific basis, but it is really appropriate to describe this kind of jade.
The village chief’s family lives on the other end of the village, and you can see some differences from the house. His yard is nearly twice as big as other people’s houses, which probably occupied two homesteads.
The truck drove directly into the yard, but Li Yi and the others were stopped at the door.
"What are you doing?"
The one who stopped them was a thin young man. Because Li Yi and the others wanted to sneak in with the truck just now, they were a little unpleasant.
"I want to see that piece of mountain material."
"There is nothing good to look at now. When the carving is done, you will naturally let you see it. Let's go, we don't make jade in our family."
Let me see it after the sculpture is finished? I'll go!
Li Yi was a little confused just now. The transportation cost of such a large piece of stagnant jade is too high, far from being cut into small pieces. Moreover, even if it means gambling with jade, it is not necessary to bet on such a big body. Besides, even if you want to bet on the mine, you may not be willing to.
But now he knew that he bought such a big stone and wanted to use this big stone to carve things. This is simply a waste of resources!
Thinking of this, he chuckled twice and asked:
"Brother, is this your home?"
"yes."
The young man looked at him with a hint of alertness.
"You are going to use this piece of mountain material to carve something, and then... sell it?"
"How is it possible? We are not short of that little money! We are going to use this to carve a great God of Wealth, so bless you... Hey, can I tell you? You guys go quickly, I have to wait for the crane to come and unload the goods!"
Li Yi scratched his scalp. It seemed that this was almost not easy to pull, so I could just say it directly!
"That... man, let me discuss with you. Look, I have bet on a lot of jade, but I haven't even seen such a big jade! I haven't even seen it yet! Isn't the crane yet? Just let me go in and take a look!"
"Oh, I'm not sure about it. You're a master of gambling jade... No, you won't let me see it!"
The man looked at Li Yi up and down a few times, his tone full of teasing.
"What if I like it and I'm willing to pay for it?"
"Spend money to buy it? It's easy to say, I'll ask for 10 million, and you'll want it?"
The man's tone was even more disdainful.
"That might be possible! If it is really good material, I will be willing to give it any more!"
Li Yixin said that 10 million is considered a fur. Such a large piece of top white jade, even if it is Russian material, it is worth at least several hundred million!
"You? More?"
The man looked at Li Yi suspiciously, and didn't know if he was moved or because of something else, he changed his mind anyway.
"Okay okay, let me take a look, so that you can save the people from outside the country from going back and saying that our Xiaoshang Village is not hospitality. But it cannot be delayed for too long. The crane is coming soon. If the unloading is bumped, we can't afford to pay."
"Don't worry, it won't be delayed for too long."
While agreeing, Li Yi walked into the gate. He climbed onto the truck in two seconds, looked around the mountain materials, and gradually became calculating in his heart.
With such external manifestations, the unit price of this piece of material will not exceed 50 yuan per kilogram, but if you want to ship it from the place of origin, the shipping fee is not cheap, and it may be more valuable than the material itself.
He clapped his hands and jumped out of the truck.
"Brother, give me this material, and you can find another stone carving of the God of Wealth."
The man glanced at Li Yi with a strange look.
"You are really... Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk to you more. If you want it, you only need to have 10 million yuan. If you think it's expensive, you should do whatever you should do. Is it easy for us to find such a big piece of jade?"
"This... ten million is a little more expensive..."
Li Yi hesitated and looked at Tan Moxuan. Tan Moxuan knew his level of gambling stones. Although he had never seen him gambling with Hetian jade, seeing that he was so persistent and knew that this material must be strange, he secretly stretched out two fingers and gestured at him.
"2 million! I'll pay 2 million!"
"Haha, 2 million is not enough for shipping! OK OK, don't mess around here, the crane should probably come."
When Li Yi saw that it was not possible, he decisively flashed back, closed the door, and let Tan Moxuan go!
Tan Moxuan smiled bitterly, walked up to pull the young man aside. The two of them muttered for a long time, and their voices became smaller and smaller. After a while, Li Yi saw Tan Moxuan gesturing a six-handed gesture behind his butt, and quickly coughed, and nodded heavily at the moment when he turned his head. 6 million, this advantage is a big deal!
After a few seconds, the transaction was settled. Now the car didn't even have to be unloaded, so the original car was pulled out of the village again. Now, many people who knew the news were alarmed. What's wrong? The village chief's native rich man is not a god of wealth anymore?
Not long after, the news that a "jade gambling expert" from another place spent 6 million to buy this big piece of material spread throughout the village as if it had grown wings. Many people envied the luck of the village chief's family. This business earned at least a first prize in the lottery!
But how can this one come from winning the lottery? That one depends on luck, this one depends on strength and hard strength!
For a moment, the village chief's son who made this business was also hyped up by people. Before the God of Wealth could be a fortune, he made a fortune first. Judging from his eyes, he should be the village chief!
On the truck, Li Yi held his cell phone and drove the navigation, directing the truck toward the jade carving factory.
Just now, the village chief's son told him that as long as such a large piece of jade material is the only one that can be solved. As for whether he is willing to help, he has no choice.
But this is not a problem for Li Yi at all. What he fears most is that he cannot find a solution. As for the unwillingness to go to the place? Hey, in this society, will there be some people who can't get along with money?
Soon, the truck drove to the entrance of the jade carving factory. When he saw such a large piece of mountain material was transported, even the factory manager was alarmed. He ran out and asked if he wanted to help calcify. He immediately shook his head like a rattle. It was not that he felt sorry for the little blade money. The key was that time could not be delayed. With such a big size, it was all broken into hundreds of kilograms per piece, which was not enough for two or three days!
"In this way, you can help me cut this piece off. If the material is not good, I don't want it all. I'll give it to you, would you please see?"
Seeing Tan Moxuan talk for a long time and not doing it for how much money he gave, Li Yi had to reveal his intention. He was not going to do this, because they were still on the other party's territory. If someone knew that the material was worth hundreds of millions, he still didn't know what trouble it would cause. Now there was no way, so he had to let them cut more points, and then he would be a fool and take a piece of brick material and leave.
"It's okay to cut this corner only. I didn't help you before. Just say, it's not appropriate to remove the jade. If you collect less money, it's too unpleasant to collect too much. If you collect too much, it's too ugly to spread. So, you give 20,000 yuan, and I'll ask the workers to work overtime and help you cut it twice. I'm fine. You'll pay for the crane yourself!"
Li Yi quickly expressed his gratitude. After a group of people accompanied him for the middle of the night, they finally cut a large piece of about 500 kilograms. As for the cost of calcite, they did not pay for it again, because Li Yi left all the remaining materials in the factory, and they even asked him for 100,000 yuan.
But in this way, he became a big joke, because the news that he spent 6 million to buy this piece of material was soon spread to the factory. In the end, not only did he not solve the good material, but he only processed the whole piece of material for 120,000 yuan. This was a loss, but he went to the sky.
But the village chief's son, who heard this news, was depressed for two days. Why did the jade carving factory take such a big advantage? He also bet on jade masters. First of all, he was not smart enough and didn't know how to sell the remaining materials back? Although he must have tried his best to lower the price, it was more than 120,000 yuan!
Now it’s great. You have to contact the mine everywhere. It’s not easy to buy another one such big one!
Not only others are confused, but also Zheng Shusen is very confused. What is Li Yi doing?
However, no matter how he asked, Li Yi didn't say it, so he had to hold the pillow and fell asleep. In the middle of the night, his ears were tortured a lot! (To be continued.)
