Chapter 1771 Great joy and great sorrow
Wang Daxian pointed out a place on the black sand stone to Master Jie Shi. Master Jie Shi made an OK gesture to him and began to draw the line.
Wang Daxian explained to Yang Tianfu: "It's not that this stone-breaking master has no experience. In fact, he knows how to break stones.
It's just that he has experienced a lot and knows that this black sandstone of yours, Boss Yang, is valuable. He asked me to give him the order because he wanted to buy insurance for himself.
If your jadeite is damaged with one cut, how much money will you have to pay?
To do this, they must not only be bold and careful, but also be observant of words and expressions.”
Yang Tianfu kept nodding his head.
"Zizzizi..."
Lin Tian took his time to look around. He knew the structure inside this piece of black sandstone.
The black sand jade inside the stone is very scattered, in the shape of thin strips, and has many large and small cracks, making it difficult to carve large ornaments.
"Click!"
A stone was cut off, and someone screamed.
"It's foggy!"
"Wang Daxian, it's up!"
Yang Tianfu saw a little bit of green and became excited when everyone said this.
Wang Daxian felt proud for a while, but he still said conservatively: "It's hard to say yet. It can only be said to be a sign of an increase. It's still a bit arbitrary to say the result now."
The stone-clearing master took out his tool and started rubbing the stone in the foggy area. When the fog disappeared, it was clear whether there was jade or not.
Everyone was watching curiously, and some people liked to watch people betting on stones, which felt more addictive.
As the master of calculus used water to scrub away the powder, everyone's eyes lit up.
“Seeing green, it’s time to cut!”
Wang Daxian looked at it with a magnifying glass, nodded and said: "The color is okay, no cracks are seen."
Everyone became excited.
"After cutting just a little bit, the surface has already turned green. This is an excellent black sandstone. As expected, the one produced by Ma Meng is really good."
"There must be a lot of green inside. With this size, it can be made into a very grand ornament."
"Wang Daxian, why don't you tell your friend about it? I bought it from him for 60 million."
"Don't argue with me, I'll pay you 65 million!"
"The price you are offering is too ridiculous. This piece of black sand jade can be made into a handicraft, and the finished product will definitely cost hundreds of millions."
Yang Tianfu was relieved for the most part, and he felt very happy when they asked for such a price.
He smiled and said to everyone: "I'm sorry, everyone, I plan to use this piece of jade for myself, so I won't sell it.
If you sell it, you can't buy it back."
Everyone felt regretful.
Wang Daxian said to the stone-cutting master: "Master, continue cutting."
Xiao Zhang excitedly pulled Lin Tian and said: "Mr. Lin, my boss just bet on stones for the first time and he made a profit. He is so lucky.
It was also the first time I saw it. When I cut it, I saw it was green.
Wang Daxian, he truly deserves his reputation."
Lin Tian sighed secretly.
He knew in his heart that the situation inside was not as good as everyone imagined.
After listening to some of Wang Daxian's explanations, he had a deeper understanding of the price aspect.
If the jadeite from this stone is cut out and made into a finished product, it is estimated to be sold for only a million dollars.
If Yang Tianfu sells this rough stone at this time, he can still make money.
If you continue to cut it and the filling is exposed, it will completely collapse.
He and Yang Tianfu are not that good either, so there is no need to dampen their interest.
Wang Daxian guided Master Jie Shi to continue cutting.
"Master, change this side and cut in a little bit."
The stone-cutting master cut out a larger piece. When he was about to touch the jade, he stopped and started rubbing the stone.
"Seeing green again, he is such a thin-skinned guy."
"Good guy, I call you good guy!"
However, when Master Jiese stopped to show it to everyone, those who were excited just now fell silent for an instant.
Someone said: "The crack is too big..."
"It collapsed, it collapsed..."
The people who had been clamoring to buy it fell silent for an instant, and Wang Daxian's face didn't look good.
Yang Tianfu asked uneasily: "Wang Daxian, what's going on?"
Wang Daxian sighed and took out a magnifying glass to show Yang Tianfu.
"The cracks are too fine and there are too many. I would rather have big cracks than small cracks. This is band-shaped jade, which is not easy to make into handicrafts."
Now it seems that the possibility of it becoming a big ornament is very low."
"Ah, this..." Yang Tianfu was stunned, "Then is it necessary to continue cutting?"
Wang Daxian nodded and said: "Cut it, master, cut it from this side, and then cut it into a larger size."
Next, the stone-cutting master cut out the jadeite inside just like peeling a watermelon. It was not a whole piece, but divided into more than a dozen pieces, and each piece was a strip of jadeite.
Some people shook their heads and lamented: "This piece cannot be made into a whole piece of handicraft. The jadeite is too fine. It would be good to make something worth hundreds of thousands."
Yang Tianfu was stunned and looked at Wang Daxian.
"Is that true?"
Wang Daxian nodded and sighed: "It's true, Boss Yang, this area is completely ruined."
Yang Tianfu experienced the previous surprise to the current disappointment. The psychological gap was too big, and his face became a little gloomy.
In this short time, more than 50 million yuan was wasted.
The first time I gambled on stones, I got such a heart-wrenching realization.
Lin Tian felt sorry for Yang Tianfu.
If he had sold it just now and not continued to cut it, Yang Tianfu would still have made a profit, which would be a pity.
People around him shook their heads.
"It's hard for an immortal to cut through an inch of jade. What the ancients said makes sense. The first cut just now was so good, who knew what would happen next."
"Betting on stones is a matter of winning less and losing more. This is not bad. If you take it home and buy some beads and earrings to wear, if someone cuts into the stone and there is nothing inside, that would be a tragedy."
"One sword goes to heaven and one sword goes to hell. We have seen this kind of thing so many times that it's no wonder."
Wang Daxian looked at Yang Tianfu and asked with concern: "Boss Yang, are you okay?"
Yang Tianfu forced out a smile that was uglier than crying and forced himself to cheer up.
"Fortunately, Wang Daxian told me that I need to be mentally prepared when gambling on stones. I know, just take it slow. If it doesn't work, I still have a piece."
Wang Daxian gently patted Yang Tianfu on the shoulder.
"Boss Yang's gambling products are pretty good. I've had a few of them in the past, and they would curse each other when they lost, and some even walked away on the spot.
So, I don’t help others easily.
There is also a piece that may have hibiscus green, so why not cut it together, maybe you can find something good."
Yang Tianfu nodded and turned his hope to the rough stone that was bid for more than 3.2 million yuan.
Seeing the excitement again, everyone looked at the rough stone.
"This rough stone is firm and stable."
"Wang Daxian has experience, and this one with a good attitude will definitely be more stable than the last one.
The possibility of getting hibiscus green is very high, and it is not as difficult as the black sandstone just now."
Lin Tian remained silent.
This stone is not much better, but it is a little better than the one just now.
There is hibiscus green jadeite inside, which also has cracks, but at least they are not band-shaped.
However, if all the jadeite is taken out and processed, I don't know if it can be sold for five to six hundred thousand.
Compared with Yang Tianfu's capital, he still lost money.
