Zhang Yilong wanted to wipe the stone, so Wang Laizi naturally had no objection. A rational jade merchant would wipe the stone before cutting it to see how it goes and know the prospects before making the next decision.

There are generally three ways to gamble on stones. The steps are polishing the stone, cutting the stone and grinding the stone. As the first step in all steps, polishing the stone is naturally also very important.

Stone-wiping is an ancient rule, which is effective and safe. If the part is not found correctly, it will be cut. Such blind operation may cause the green "solution" that is originally in good condition to run away, so it is easy to lose the bet.

The main thing when wiping a stone is to look at the "fog", as well as the background and color, because with the wiping opening, you can shine the light and look inside to judge the depth, width, and shade of the green.

The order of rubbing stones is as follows: first rub the hair, second rub the dead skin, third rub the ringworm, and fourth rub the loose flower.

The so-called "rubbing stone" has only one purpose, which is to find the true green color.

Although Zhang Yilong didn't understand the very professional aspects of stone gambling, as the name suggests, he was quite clear about its general meaning. The reason why he chose to polish stones at the beginning was not because he was cautious, fearing to damage the jade quality contained in it.

The main reason is that he wanted to use this to cover up his special powers, and he was very cautious when unraveling the stone. When the stone was untied and a piece of beautiful jade was taken out, everything would fall into place. In other words, he was like this.

It was just a show. If his actual situation was based on, the stone could be cut directly with a knife. With his "fierce eye", would he still be afraid of the knife cutting in the wrong direction?

"Brother Zhang, which stone do you want to rub first?" Wang Laizi asked with a smile.

"Just this one." Zhang Yilong pointed to a stone he just bought from the other party and replied. Naturally, he would not choose that good stone first, otherwise the ten thousand yuan would be in vain.

"Well, no problem." Wang Laizi nodded enthusiastically and agreed, and then he prepared the relevant tools to gamble with Zhang Yilong.

When Zhang Yilong started rubbing the stone, most of the people present gathered around, staring at the stone, with curious looks on their faces. It seemed that everyone was looking forward to the outcome of the stone bet, although

From a professional perspective, the materials of the three stones that Zhang Yilong wanted to bet on could be said to be very average, and the other party was an out-and-out novice.

However, in their eyes, Zhang Yilong was not an ordinary novice. The other party was extremely lucky, and the piece of glass jade he had bet on was unbelievable.

Under this situation, many people have doubts about him. They don't know if he is relying entirely on shitty luck, or if he is "pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger." On the surface, he is a newcomer, but in fact, he has real abilities.

, the eyesight is so deep that you don’t need to use a spotlight flashlight when looking at stones. You can see the reality of a stone with your naked eyes alone.

That is because there are constant speculations about Zhang Yilong, which makes Wang Zizi and others pay special attention to his stone gambling situation.

Under Zhang Yilong's personal instructions, Wang Laizi controlled the stone wiping machine and began to rub it slowly and carefully. A small hole was gradually made in the rubbed area of ​​the stone.

But the result didn't seem good. After rubbing it for a long time, I could only see a gray-white texture. Finally, I could see the jade, but the texture was obviously unsatisfactory, because the jade looked chaotic, indicating that there were too many impurities.

Not pretty at all.

"What a pity!" Upon seeing this, Wang Laizi shook his head and sighed, "There is too much white cotton, and the foundation is very average."

"Isn't that true?" Someone next to him agreed, "But Brother Zhang is still very lucky. After all, there is a piece of jade hidden in that stone. It is probably white and not yang in color."

For a moment, everyone pointed at the stone and started talking, and most of the people's faces immediately showed a look of disappointment. The old turtle in the crowd couldn't help but sigh for Zhang Yilong. He knew very well in his heart that the "dry white" jadeite was

Jadeite is the worst quality among the jadeite species. It belongs to the lowest grade and has extremely low use and ornamental value. Compared with Laokeng glass jadeite, its price is worlds apart. One is gold and the other is cabbage. In the market, this

The price of growing jade is extremely low. If you buy it for 5,000 yuan, you may not be able to sell it for 50 yuan. Therefore, Zhang Yilong obviously lost his bet on this stone. Fortunately, it is not a big deal, and it is not a big deal for a multi-millionaire.

.

"Boss Wang, it's okay. It seems that I lost the bet with this stone. Haha, I'm willing to admit defeat." Zhang Yilong said with a smile. He had known that there would be such a result, so he acted very calmly, and it was just a few words.

There is no need for him to pretend to be miserable and embarrassed when he has something worth a thousand yuan, as that will only make people look down on him.

Only people who are comfortable betting on stones will be willing to bet with you. Zhang Yilong wanted to establish such a good image in front of Wang Zizi and others.

"I know." Wang Laizi hurriedly comforted him, "Brother Zhang, there are losers and winners when betting on stones. Although you lost this bet, the one you bet on earlier has gone up significantly. In comparison, this is completely insignificant.

What's the big deal, right? Besides, don't you still have two stones that you don't know about? What should you do next? Should you continue to rub this stone or cut it directly, or do something else?"

Zhang Yilong replied without hesitation: "That's it for this stone. Change to the other two pieces and wipe them first, and then we'll talk about the situation."

He then asked Wang Laizi to help him clean another stone. There was nothing good in that stone, it was just a formality.

The result was predictable. Not long after, the stone also opened a door. It was also a piece of light gray-white jadeite with rough texture and poor transparency. The emerald color was also very light, and there was no beauty at all.

Zhang Yilong’s conclusion is that the seeds are rough, the water is dry, and they are not moist.

Not to mention, through physical analysis of stones, he subtly learned a lot of useful things. He knew what kind of jadeite was a good piece of jadeite and what kind of jadeite was worthless.

This is called "practice brings true knowledge"!

After Zhang Yilong's second stone failed in gambling, those who were watching were not only disappointed, but also confirmed in their hearts that Zhang Yilong was a veritable novice. He had previously been able to gamble on a piece of Laokeng glass worth tens of millions.

Jade depends entirely on luck. There is no suspense in his stone gambling process. There is only one result, and that is losing the bet. After three stones were gambled and he lost consecutively, the third stone is almost enough, unless another miracle happens.

But that possibility is slim.

"Brother Zhang, it's a pity that this stone doesn't seem to be very good. What should I do with it now?" Wang Laizi asked with a look of regret on his face.

Zhang Yilong smiled slightly and said: "It's okay, just put it aside for now. I'll do it when I go back. Boss Wang, please wipe the last stone too."

Wang Laizi said: "Brother Zhang, is that not necessary? Polishing the stone is really time-consuming. I suggest you cut it and have a look. This is more direct."

His confidence in Zhang Yilong was obviously shaken, and he seemed a little impatient. Maybe he thought his suggestion was pertinent. It took so long to get the first two stones, but the final result was a waste of excitement, which was a bit undeserved.

, so depending on the situation, there is no need to spend that much effort on the third stone.

But Zhang Yilong shook his head seriously and said: "Oh, no. Boss Wang, I think it's better to wipe it first. If you are tired, then I will do it myself."

He knew how to polish stones. He had done such a good job on the previous stones, and this one was no exception.

"My hands are indeed a little sore. Brother Zhang, can you do it yourself?" Wang Laizi asked.

Zhang Yilong nodded and said: "I'm okay, I've tried it before."

"Then try wiping it yourself first. If you have any questions, just ask me." Wang Laizi said, and then he handed the stone wiping machine to Zhang Yilong and asked him to do it himself.

After Zhang Yilong took it, he got down to business. He rubbed it carefully and without any ambiguity.

The jade merchants who were watching were a little tired at this moment. Few of them were watching Zhang Yilong polishing the stone attentively. Most of them were talking quietly about something.

Perhaps in their eyes, Zhang Yilong is a "die-hard" who will only work there in vain.

They are not optimistic about the prospect of that stone. Newcomers are still newcomers after all, and there is nothing else except luck and that kind of enthusiasm.

However, there was one person in the audience who watched Zhang Yilong unraveling the stone with rapt attention from beginning to end.

That person was none other than Lao Bi, his best friend on this street.

Zhang Yilong lost gambling continuously and lost more than 10,000 yuan in a blink of an eye. The old turtle naturally felt sorry for him in his heart, but he had no choice but to worry about the other party. After all, gambling on stones was Zhang Yilong's own business. He could gamble if he liked.

, and no one else can stop him. You must know that the first pot of gold in his life was earned through gambling on stones. It would be difficult for anyone else to keep it.

I don’t know how long it took, but Zhang Yilong watched the stone that he patiently rubbed made a deep gash.

The situation of wiping the stone this time is very different from the previous two times. The texture that came out at the beginning was not gray or white, but black. As the friction deepened, the color became darker and darker, and the texture became darker.

Getting brighter and brighter.

"Glass species?!"

The old turtle who first discovered the jade polished by Zhang Yilong had a crazy idea in his mind.

At that moment, he couldn't control himself and rushed out of the crowd, blurting out: "Xiaolong, that looks like Mo Cui with glass seeds!"
Chapter completed!
