This piece of material is black, cannot be illuminated by light, has a rough appearance, the meat is not delicate enough, and there is a crack in the leather shell.
Li walked forward and picked up the piece of material, which was about one kilogram.
He didn't use a strong flashlight, he just touched it with his hand, put it to his nose and smelled it, and he immediately felt it in his mind.
"The material is made of Zhengyang green waxy ice. The cracks in the shell have not penetrated deep into the interior. The material is very delicate. Although the planting water is not high, the color is very rich. It cannot be used as a bracelet, but it can be used to make landscape signs and some small pendants.
"
After Li Xiangqian inspected the piece of material, he looked at the stall owner.
"Boss, how can I sell this piece of material?"
"Ten thousand dollars!"
"Boss, the leather case of your material is not expressive enough. It doesn't fluoresce even when illuminated. Moreover, the leather case is almost full of big cracks. It's too risky and you can't even see it for ten thousand yuan."
The boss also knew that the quality of the materials he produced in Houjiang was really poor. Seeing that Li Xiangqian was young, he thought he didn't understand anything, so he said it casually, just in case someone was stupid and bought it.
Besides, setting the price higher also leaves a lot of room for bargaining with customers.
Therefore, the bidding prices of these stone bump sellers have always been very unrealistic.
Just cut it in half, or even cut it off by 70 to 80%.
Now the stall owner saw that Li Xiangqian was speaking clearly and eloquently, and he also knew that the boy in front of him seemed to have some skills and was not just an ignorant guy.
The store owner immediately gave Li Xiangqian the choice.
"Young man, how much do you want to buy this wool from me?"
Li Xiangqian didn't hesitate and stretched out three fingers.
The store owner was a little excited.
"Three thousand?"
Li Qianqian shook his head directly.
"three hundred!"
This price is really outrageous. I'm asking for ten thousand for this material, and you counter-offer three hundred. If it weren't for your youth, I'd give your legs a discount.
So the store was immediately rude.
"Young man, you are really good at bargaining. If you can't sell this piece of material, you'd better look elsewhere."
"Okay, if that's the case, then I'll take another look."
Li Xiangqian left immediately without any delay or hesitation.
As a result, after walking a few steps, I was stopped by the store again.
This piece of material was given directly by Lao Burma when he purchased a large piece of wool from Lao Burma in Ruijiang, Yunnan.
A total of seven or eight yuan was given away, and he sold the other seven yuan, and as far as he knew, almost all the materials for the seven yuan were ruined, leaving only one piece that was not sold, and the color was the worst.
The stall owner himself was reluctant to cut it directly, always thinking that he could get lucky and trap an unscrupulous person into selling it.
As a result, it has been on sale for almost a year and no one is interested.
It’s better to sell it. It hasn’t opened yet today, so I bought this ugly jade material to transfer my fortune today.
"Little brother, this piece of material, worth three hundred yuan, is yours."
To be honest, Li Xiangqian was a little nervous. He also felt that the price he had just set was too high. Although this piece of wool was only grown in water, it had a lot of color inside.
There is a saying in the jade industry: one point difference in species means ten times the price difference; one point difference in color means a hundred times the price difference.
Although this piece of material only reaches Nuobing, its color has reached Zhengyang. It can be regarded as a medium-sized piece of material. If it is cut, it can be sold for at least 100,000 yuan.
But he only had 300 yuan in his pocket, and he really couldn't give a higher price.
Fortunately, the boss is willing to sell.
After paying the money and holding the piece of material in his hand, Li Xiangqian was about to leave, but the stall owner asked: "Little brother, I have all the tools to cut the goods. Do you want to help you cut it?"
"Brother, no need, I bought it for fun, I don't plan to cut it directly."
Li Xiangqian smiled and left.
He is not stupid. He only spent three hundred yuan on someone else's land, but he directly cut out a piece of waxy Zhengyang green material.
Although the transaction between the two parties has ended, the stall owner certainly cannot default on his debt, but he does not want to be so high-profile, nor does he want others to see his ability.
After all, for some unknown reason, my mother was particularly disgusted with him betting on stones. She even hit his hand with a ruler a few times when she found out he was secretly betting on stones.
Moreover, Li Xiangqian had no intention of making a living by gambling on stones. Today he was just forced to exchange some money to buy medicine for his mother, and the rent was also due.
"Uncle, could you please help me cut this piece of material?"
Li Xiangqian deliberately walked around two streets and walked to an inconspicuous stall. Seeing that there were few people here and that water saws and chain saws for cutting stones were all available, he stood in front of the stall owner.
The stall owner was a man about fifty years old with disheveled hair. He raised his head and looked at the woolen material Li Qianqian was holding.
"Young man, your material is not in good quality and has big cracks. It should be scrap. Is it necessary to cut it?"
"Uncle, I bought this material just for fun. I don't know much about it. I just didn't spend much money, so I just bought it to learn and gain experience."
"Hey, young man, I advise you, nine times out of ten you will lose. Not everyone can do this. Talent is one thing, and luck is another. Your luck is obviously not good."
"It's okay, uncle, just cut it according to the line I drew."
Li Xiangqian took a pen from beside the water saw, drew a line on the piece of material in a formal manner, and then handed the material to the stall owner in a serious manner.
"Hey, what's going on? You look like an expert!" The stall owner smiled and took the ingredients in his hand.
In fact, in the eyes of the store owner, he didn't think highly of Li Xiangqian.
Buying jadeite wool is just like choosing antiques in an antique street. It’s not that you don’t know it at all, but that you only have a little knowledge.
In this business of buying and selling raw jadeite, the stall owners like the most about people who seem to have a vague understanding of the material. This kind of person is most likely to misunderstand the stone, and they feel that they are all right.
As a result, everything just stretched my hips.
The stall owner has this kind of mentality when he sees Li Xiangqian now.
Li Qianqian stood aside and did not move, but patiently watched the stall owner unpacking the stone.
"When the water saw rings, there is a thousand taels of gold."
The shopkeeper looked at Li Qianqian with a smile and hummed a tune to himself.
As a result, he cut the piece of wool and stopped laughing immediately.
After this piece of Houjiang material was exposed to its true colors from Lushan, it turned out to be full of green. It looked very green and rich, and the texture of the meat was particularly delicate.
What's even more special is that the big cracks on the leather shell just now did not extend into the original stone.
This is definitely good stuff.
It has definitely gone up significantly.
Now, in the eyes of this stall owner, although the material from Houjiang is not highly cultivated, it is full of color.
Although you can't get a bracelet, it's enough to make a few pendant brands.
And it's so green. If you hang a few brands on them, a few of them can be sold for 100,000 yuan.
