Everything is ready and the time has arrived. Then the gong will officially start.
The rules of the third game are that both sides must each select three pieces of jadeite within the stipulated thirty minutes.
No matter how big or small, as long as the materials are placed in the hall.
Time was precious, and just after the chief judge Xu Zhenqiang signaled the start, Li Qianqian and Tu Zhen'e each approached the jadeite materials that were everywhere.
The time is only half an hour, and there are three pieces of ingredients to choose from, so it is still very tight.
Li Xiangqian was not in the mood to think wildly. He stood in the entire place, ignoring the eyes of everyone in the hall, and began to concentrate on searching.
Soon, a piece of yellow sand leather material from the wooden entrance came into Li Xiangqian's field of vision.
This piece of material belongs to Muna Laochangkou, weighs 98 kilograms, has a big crack on the top, and a scrape on the corner.
Judging from the exposed mouth, the jade flesh looks like water, and it is also covered with fluffy cotton.
In the jade industry, there is a saying about the wood that makes a miracle happen.
It refers to the materials from Mu Na Chang Kou. Some of the materials have average shell performance, but they swell greatly when cut out.
Of course, nothing is absolute. Although the piece of material that Li Xiangqian is eyeing is also made from wood, judging from the performance of the leather shell and the window cleaning position, it is very likely to be a piece of broken material.
It's as difficult as climbing to the sky if you want to make a profit.
Or, it's simply impossible.
But Li Xiangqian made his own judgment through the wipe. The cotton-like cotton only accounted for less than one-tenth of the material.
The remaining nine-tenths, if he judged correctly, were most likely the very rare Muna snowflake cotton in Muna field.
Moreover, the water on this piece of material covered with snowflake cotton is definitely not the waxy ice on the mouth. After cutting it, it is very likely that it has reached high ice.
Li Xiangqian remembered that a few years ago in Heyang, a pair of Gao Bing's snowflake cotton bracelets were sold for a whopping price of three million.
The piece of material in front of me weighs nearly one hundred kilograms. According to the shape of this piece of material, if there is no big crack, it can be used to make ten pairs of bracelets.
Coupled with the bracelet cake and leftover materials, if everything goes well, the minimum estimate can reach 30 million.
Without any hesitation, Li Xiangqian chose this supreme material as the first material for today's decisive battle with Gambler.
After selecting the first piece of material, Li Xiangqian casually nodded to the staff on the side.
Immediately afterwards, the staff responsible for following immediately covered the piece of material with a piece of red silk.
These are the rules of this duel.
Both parties are too powerful, and they do this so as not to cause interference to the other party, let alone let the other party peek.
And when Li Xiangqian finished selecting the first piece of material and looked up at Gambler Tu Zhenxie, Gambler had already chosen the first piece of material.
He really deserves his reputation as a gambling tyrant.
Li Xiangqian didn't wait any longer. Looking at the thirty-minute countdown in the hall, eight minutes had passed. Li Xiangqian immediately started looking for the second piece of material.
Soon, a red water stone at the entrance of Damakanchang came into Li Xiangqian's field of vision.
Red jade is the abbreviation of red jade, which refers to jade with red as the main color.
This includes yellow-red, orange-red, maroon, bright red and other kinds of jade that are in red.
The color of red jade is not the color of the jade mineral itself. It is caused by the intrusion of iron elements into the gaps of the jade crystal after the original stone has been weathered and hydrolyzed. It is a secondary color of jade.
Because it is an acquired secondary color, red jade mostly appears on the epidermis of jade, which is also called red skin or red mist.
On the market, natural red jadeite with good quality and rich color is really rare.
Among the whole red jadeite, there is a kind of material with bright color, fresh water head, delicate and transparent jade quality, called cockscomb red, which is like the bright red cockscomb on the head of a rooster. It is the top grade of red jadeite.
Red, emerald, green and purple are precious.
The finest high-quality red jadeite is no less good than full green jadeite or violet jadeite.
However, red jadeite, which has good water and color, is more difficult to form than jadeite of other colors.
Because red jadeite is a secondary color, which is caused by the iron element, many natural red jadeites are not good in color.
For this reason, the red jadeite on the market is mostly red jadeite with darker tones, rough texture, short water head, and poor seeding water. Such jadeite jewelry, whether it is a bracelet or a pendant, is relatively cheap.
But never underestimate the creative ability of the Chinese people. For example, some red jadeite that is of poor quality and cannot be sold at a high price will become very beautiful and bright in color after being artificially heated.
This kind of jade is red-hot jade.
Of course, according to the relevant standards of the jade industry promulgated, red-hot jadeite that has been baked like this also belongs to the category of grade A jadeite, and a certificate of natural jadeite can also be issued.
Because to be precise, red-burning jade is completely different from dyeing jade. Burning red only heats the red jade, allowing the bright color of the red jade to be released better, and does not change the natural nature of the jade.
However, even if the color of red-hot jade is equally gorgeous, red-hot jade is hot-red. This kind of jade is not recognized by most people in the market.
Therefore, a natural red jadeite with excellent water color is truly rare and extremely valuable for collection and realization.
now.
Li Xiangqian looked at the ordinary piece of red jade in front of him, and his eyes really lit up.
Because after Li Xiangqian's observation, the shell of this raw jadeite stone is very natural, with no traces of being burned, and it is a completely natural red jadeite.
Secondly, according to Li Xiangqian's judgment, this piece of material is not like most red jade, which only has red outer skin or mist layer, but a very rare red color all over the body.
Third, through Li Xiangqian’s naked-eye observation, he accurately judged that this piece of material had at least reached the level of ice in terms of water content.
Fourth, Li Xiangqian deduced that this piece of material had no impurities inside and very few cracks. It was not only bright in color, but also full of flavor.
Therefore, Li Xiangqian secretly judged that the piece of material in front of him was a piece of pure natural, full red, excellent seed water, delicate and bright color, high-quality red jade, and it was most likely the very rare cockscomb red.
If that's the case, combined with the fact that this piece of material weighs over eighty kilograms and can be used to make bracelets and egg noodles of rare colors, the total cost is at least over fifty million.
good.
That's it.
With the blessing of such a full-color cockscomb red piece valued at 50 million, defeating the evil Tu Zhen and gouging out his eyes would be one step closer.
