At that time, my mother also said that the friend was jealous, so he talked nonsense.

But I never imagined that half a year ago, their business was not turning over smoothly and my father’s company had problems with its capital chain.

My mother sold her gold and silver jewelry to help my father raise funds.

So I sent the pair of jade bracelets to a pawn company to be pawned.

As a result, the pawn company only quoted a price of 20,000 yuan, which made my mother very angry.

She thought the pawn company was deliberately lowering the price, so she went to several pawn shops, but they all gave her the same price.

Then my mother scolded those jewelry dealers, which caused great harm to people.

But my mother still has no idea why this bracelet is worthless.

Chen Rui also checked the information later, but could not find out the reason.

Now hearing what Karen said, he couldn't help but suddenly realized that this was what happened.

"In the past, this jadeite was only produced in Myanmar, and Myanmar wanted to make high profits."

"The export of jadeite rough was also banned for a time, and the largest consumer country of jadeite is the Dragon Kingdom."

"So it's clear who this is directed at."

"In those few years, the price of jadeite was really crazy, and it could easily cost several million yuan."

"But now, because of the emergence of Guatemalan jade, the price of jade has plummeted."

"Furthermore, from the perspective of gemstones, this jadeite is a low-end gemstone."

"It's not hard enough and pure enough, so it's not worth the price..."

Karen explained to Chen Rui.

Chen Rui also nodded and talked about the gem.

Some time ago, when he was supplementing his knowledge of domestic antiques, he came across such a review in a publication published by a domestic museum.

What I mean is that Chinese people like jade and jade, which is actually a helpless move.

Because although our homeland is huge, we have to talk about gems in our country.

There really aren’t many gem mining areas that I want to raise.

We do not produce any of the four mainstream gemstones in the world.

Our domestic production of the best diamonds is very rare. Fortunately, we have now invented artificial diamonds...

Let’s not mention this topic for now.

Just talk about rubies, emeralds and other colored gems.

Don’t we like it?

Of course not, of course we like it, but who told us that there are no mines of colored gemstones like this in our country.

So we can only import them from abroad at high prices.

For example, our ancient rubies and sapphires were mainly imported from Pakistan, the Middle East and other regions.

As for emeralds, we can only use the jadeite produced in Myanmar to make up the number.

And don’t look at the many literati and poets in China who boast about jade very much.

But this thing is only recognized by people in our Dragon Kingdom, but no one recognizes it internationally.

Because from one point, that is, in terms of hardness, this jadeite is not up to standard.

As mentioned before, tourmaline is not as hard as emerald.

The hardness of jadeite is not as good as that of tourmaline.

Ruoyin's score in terms of persistence is extremely low.

If you are not careful, it will break after just one bump. In the eyes of foreigners, this is definitely not a good gemstone.

Karen was able to identify both gemstones.

Now the pressure is on the stall owner's side again.

"So, boss, do you still want to sell these rough stones?"

This time it was Chen Rui's turn to look at the boss with a half-smile.

The boss also blushed and scratched his head.

"Sell, of course, as long as the price is reasonable, then sell!"

"Let's do this. If you want these two jade stones, just give me a thousand swords!"

"These two pieces of tourmaline are more expensive, costing three thousand dollars!"

This time, the boss didn't offer a price that seemed outrageous.

Chen Rui turned to look at Karen, who looked at the four rocks in front of him.

The price of two rough tourmalines is indeed higher.

But the price is not outrageous. Let’s just say that these two rough tourmalines are about the size of a pinky fingernail.

If I go back and process it carefully and make a set of jewelry including necklace, ring and earrings, it won't be a problem.

As long as it is made, the price of such jewelry will start at least 10,000 dollars.

As for the two pieces of jadeite, the price was estimated by Chen Rui.

Indeed, a thousand dollars is not expensive.

He had seen this thing before, and it was enough material to process several rings.

If this is done, take it back to the country.

Even if the price of jadeite in China has collapsed now, just these few rings can still be sold for tens of thousands of yuan.

So there is still something to be gained here.

Chen Rui simply transferred four thousand dollars to the boss and took all the rough stones.

And after taking it, he was in no hurry to leave.

Instead, he shifted his attention to the hundreds of large and small stones of different shapes placed in front of the stall.

"What? Boss, are you also interested in gambling on stones?"

"Haha, I learned this game from you people in the Dragon Kingdom!"

"It doesn't take much, a hundred bucks is enough to make one bet."

While the two were talking, several locals came to the stall.

After chatting with a few guys for a long time, I took out a handful of money and stuffed it into the guy's hand.

The guy took a few people to see some rough stones.

Several locals discussed it for a while and then selected five of them.

Under the leadership of the clerk, the stones came to the cutting machine.

These people are obviously old people, before they started cutting.

They took out their pens and drew a few lines on the stone.

Then there is the process of slicing, opening the window, and polishing a window on the edge of the stone.

You can see inside the stone from here.

If there are really gems inside, they can definitely be seen through this window.

However, these guys seem to be unlucky.

I fired four stones in succession, but all failed.

Just when they were dejected, they unexpectedly made a great harvest on the fifth stone.

When they opened the window on the fifth stone, they saw green crystals inside the stone.

Several people suddenly awakened their spirits and drew left and right on the stone skin.

I spent several lines on the big stone, for fear that the clerk might accidentally cut the stone.

Fortunately, the master who wields the knife is very skilled.

It almost cuts the stone against the skin of the stone.

But what is disappointing is that nothing was cut out of the other noodles.

Then they carefully drew the lines and asked the master to cut carefully.

Finally, after more than half an hour, they dug out a fist-sized gem from the stone.

Seeing the gem, several buddies cheered.

This vote not only ensures that they get their money back, but also allows them to make a lot of money.

"Would you like one? It doesn't cost much anyway."
