After returning to Liang's house, Liang Qian was at a loss as to what to do. He sighed and looked ashamed.

In the antique world, if you borrow someone else's treasure, it should be returned to Zhao intact. Now, Chen Er's family heirloom has been smashed into pieces. If this spreads, Liang Qian will no longer be able to continue to work in the industry.

Moreover, no one will cooperate with Liang Qian anymore.

The most important thing is that the reputation that Liang Qian has built his whole life has also collapsed.

Seeing her grandfather's depressed and anxious look, Liang Tingting felt very regretful and regretted that she should not have raised a cat. "Grandpa, I'm sorry..."

"Hey, what's the use of talking about this now!" Liang Qian raised his head, his eyes filled with bloodshot eyes, "We have to think of a way, first we can find a piece of jade material."

“Grandpa, if it’s ordinary jade, you can still find it, but to find such a large piece of imperial green jade, this… is obviously a difficult task. The current jade market has not produced a piece of imperial green jade for many years.

"

"I know, but even so I have to find it."

After a night of tossing and turning, Liang Qian got up when the sky was slightly bright in the morning, and called all his friends in the jewelry industry, asking him to look for imperial green jadeite.

Three days later, a friend named Qian Suncheng called Liang Qian and said that a huge jadeite rough stone had appeared in Wancheng. Judging from the material exposed on the outside of the leather, it was in excellent condition, reaching the level of imperial green.

, if all of them were cut out to be imperial green, it would cause a sensation in the entire jade and treasure world.

】

Wancheng is on the border with Myanmar. Myanmar's jadeite is the best in the world, and most of the imperial green comes from Myanmar.

This time, a jadeite jeweler reluctantly gave up because of capital turnover and took this fine piece of jadeite to Guancheng for auction.

The starting price for a top-quality jadeite stone like this is over 100 million.

Although the imperial green can be seen on the outside, it is still unknown whether it is true on the inside.

The reason why the original owner did not dare to cut it himself, but to auction it, was because he was afraid that if it was not ideal after cutting it out, the price would immediately plummet, and it might only be worth a few million, or it might be worth nothing.

The original owner didn't want to take any chances, so an auction was the smartest option.

This is what is called in the jade world: one knife makes you rich, the other makes you rich.

If it is cut well, it will be multiplied 10 times or 100 times. If it is not cut well, it will go bankrupt.

A piece of raw stone costs over 100 million, and not everyone can afford it.

After Qian Suncheng told Liang Qian this information, Liang Qian immediately mortgaged his money, sold his collections, and raised 300 million to go to Guancheng.

Liang Tingting also went together.

On the plane, Liang Qian looked at the picture of the original stone sent by Qian Suncheng. The leather of the stone was very good, and the color of the material that had been exposed on the leather was also very good. It was indeed qualified to be imperial green. Generally speaking, the color of the inner material must be

The color is better than the bare material, but this is not necessarily true. There are many examples where the outer leather looks excellent, but after being cut, there are numerous cracks, commonly known as "broken phase stones".

The quality of the jade is very good, but it has many cracks, which means it is damaged.

"Grandpa, do you really want to fight?" Liang Tingting was very anxious. This time, to put it bluntly, it was gambling on stones. Liang Qian had never done such a thing in his life.

"If you don't fight, how can you return Lao Chen's things? The size of this piece of material is exactly ten times the size of the 'Guanyin Sending Son'."

“But it’s still unclear whether the interior is full of green and whether it reaches imperial green.”

"Now I have no choice but to take a gamble. I think the leather is very good, and there is a 50% chance that it will be imperial green."

"..." Liang Tingting stopped talking, and her mood became even heavier. Although there was a 50% chance of getting the imperial green, there was also a 50% chance that it wouldn't be possible.

At around 1 p.m., the two arrived in Guancheng.

Qian Suncheng drove to pick them up and arranged to stay in a hotel.

After arriving in the room, Liang Qian eagerly inquired with Qian Suncheng about the specific situation and discussed the probability that this material would produce imperial green.

Qian Suncheng is a jade merchant. He has been playing with jade all his life. His opinion is the same as that of Liang Qian. There is a half chance of getting imperial green.

If you are half sure in the industry, that would be incredible.

"We both have the same idea!" Liang Qian took a sip of tea and looked solemn.

Qian Suncheng was very confused, "Mr. Liang, why do you suddenly want to buy imperial green stone? It seems that it must be imperial green."

Liang Qian couldn't tell the truth, so he could only lament, "I have difficulties, but it's not convenient to talk about it."

"Forget it's inconvenient, but I still want to remind you that there are risks in stone betting, and the price is so high, many people are waiting to see it now."

"When will filming start?"

"3 days later."

"Okay. Get me a ticket."

"It's a small thing."

"In addition, can you find out who are the capable buyers, their price expectations, etc." Liang Qian asked.

"Okay, I'll go investigate."

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and it was the day of the auction.

This auction was organized by the local Jade Organization Association, and the attendees were all prominent figures in the jade industry. Onlookers were not allowed in.

The tickets were also issued by the Jade Organization Association. Qian Suncheng was a cadre in the association, so it was easy to get two tickets.

The venue is the Llandrin Stone Museum, which has high security and has all the tools for cutting, as well as various stone masters.

2 p.m., Landlin Stone Museum.

Liang Qian, Liang Tingting, and Qian Suncheng arrived at the venue.

The venue was packed with people, about 300 people, all gathered in twos and threes, and jade dealers from all walks of life were also eager to give it a try.

"I heard it's imperial green jade."

"That's not necessarily true. You can't see the inside. It's just that the cortex is exposed. Let's take a closer look later."

"Does the starting price need to be 100 million?"

"It's not clear yet. If the offer is really 100 million, I'm afraid it will be difficult for anyone to follow."

Several jade merchants were discussing in low voices.

Liang Qian frowned and had no idea, "Old Qian, is it possible that the owner of the cargo really offered a starting price of 100 million?"

Qian Suncheng looked around and whispered: "Internal information, the owner of the goods has dropped to 60 million, and offering 100 million is just a gimmick."

"60 million is not low."

"Mr. Liang, if the imperial green is really sold, it will be at least dozens of times higher. This is betting on stones. Either you lose or you win. In fact, I still don't understand why you came to the auction. Your

Isn’t your collection enough? Or maybe you are obsessed with jade now. Although the imperial green is a pyramid, you don’t necessarily want to pursue the pyramid.”

"It's hard to explain in words!" Liang Qian sighed deeply. He didn't want to gamble on stones, but he was really helpless.

Ten minutes later, a truck drove in. Several workers carefully placed the raw jade stones on the stage. A fat, middle-aged man walked onto the stage. He was the owner of the goods, a Burmese man. He spoke with a stiff Yanxia tone.

talk.
