"How could I not know about such a dirty thing like skin care?" Li Tiantan snorted subconsciously and said disdainfully.
The so-called veneer is a common counterfeiting technique in the stone gambling industry. It is usually used on the material for opening windows. A layer of sand skin is cut off along the edge, and then a thin layer of jade material is pasted on the inside.
Glue the sand skin on.
At this moment, in this place where hands and feet have been manipulated, if you open another window and look in from the outside, you can only see the layer of jade skin. The value of a few ordinary stones may skyrocket due to this.
Although this method is used very frequently in the industry, most of the time it can only be used to deceive novices and second-rate fortune tellers.
Because the sand leather is glued on, no matter how perfectly the lines on it are, there will still be an irreparable difference from the original stone before the fraud. A discerning fortune teller can quickly spot this and see through the scam.
However, one thing is certain, this kind of fraud can only be judged from the texture of the sand skin. If you start with the jade skin in the sand skin, nine out of ten experts will be fooled. After all, the jade skin is not the same.
The jade used is genuine jade, and it is difficult to tell if the jade is fake.
Of course, there are also some crazy stone gambling shops that directly use jadeite as the skin in order to save this cost. This kind of stone can only be deceived by novices and laymen, so let’s not mention it for now.
"I know what you want to do. In the final analysis, it's just some twisted ideas!" Li Tiantan pointed at the rough stone in front of him and criticized Meng Yan fiercely.
"It would be too fanciful to have this piece of rough stone covered with leather. It's not just any ordinary stone, it's a firefly skin. As far as I know, in the history of northern Myanmar, no master of forgery has ever been able to do this.
Create the skin of the firefly sand shell!"
Meng Yan sneered in his heart, although it is said to be the hometown of jade production, how old are you in northern Burma?
There are countless skilled craftsmen in the Xia Kingdom. Our ancestors have mastered this kind of leather craftsmanship thousands of years ago. However, that kind of craftsmanship is not used in such trivial matters as fake jade shells, but is a kind of exquisite craftsmanship.
Craftsmanship skills.
Meng Yan did not continue to argue with Li Tiantan, but turned to look at Scar beside him and asked.
"I wonder if Captain Dao is willing to believe me?"
"Captain Dao, don't believe him. After all, this man knows some Kung Fu of a three-legged cat. He just said that there is a crack in this piece of jade. He can't even explain the reason. He must be blind!" Li Tiantan was standing aside!
Said sarcastically.
"Then why the hell didn't you blindly find out that there are cracks in this piece of material?" Scar's tone was mixed with anger, and he stared at Li Tiantan fiercely.
"If you hadn't patted your chest and guaranteed that there would be high ice in this piece of jade, would I have had to cut off three rough stones and then lose three million, including the whole coffin?"
Li Tiantan opened his mouth and was speechless.
"Get out of here, if you, a blind old man, dare to say one more damn rude word to Brother Meng, labor and management won't dare to destroy you, and it will be no problem to ask someone to drag you out!" Scar said with a dark face.
road.
Li Tiantan closed his mouth, completely silent, and turned to look at Meng Yan with a sarcastic expression.
Okay, isn't it just because you got it right? There are cracks in this rough stone? This big boss trusts you so much now. I wonder what will happen if you overturn in a while!
Feeling Li Tiantan's gaze, Meng Yan smiled and said nothing, turning his attention to the chipped rough stone in front of him.
He leaned down and touched the sandy surface of the original stone. There was a rough texture on his fingertips. Meng Yan opened his magic pupil again and looked directly through the surface for the veins of jadeite inside the original stone.
After about a cup of tea, Meng Yan raised his head and smiled at Wei Xian who was standing aside.
"I wonder, Boss Wei, if you use any discarded film at the entrance?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, obviously not knowing what Meng Yan was going to do next.
Wei Xian opened his mouth slightly. After being surprised, he immediately returned to normal. After thinking for a while, he spoke to Meng Yan.
"Yes, yes, when we are digging rough stones at the site, if we encounter good material and our customers don't come to see it for a while, we will take a photo first, and then attach a general description of the situation to the mail.
In the past, customers could understand a simple situation before making a decision."
"Whether Mr. Meng wants brand-new, unused film or used film, we have them all at the entrance."
Meng Yan waved his hand: "Brand-new film is too expensive to use. Boss Wei just gives me a few rolls of used film."
Later, Meng Yan pointed to the cut surface of the original stone on the stone cutting table and added: "The film should be of sufficient weight, so that the surface of the entire rough stone and the cut surface can be completely covered."
Scar on the side came forward curiously and asked Meng Yan.
"Brother Meng, what are you planning to do?"
Meng Yan stretched out a finger and made a "shh" gesture to his mouth.
"I'm sorry, Captain Dao. This is a technique that was secretly passed down to me by my master. I can't tell you about it. I ask Captain Dao for your forgiveness."
When Scar heard this, he looked bored: "Since it is the secret craft of Master Meng, I, Scar, will not continue to ask. Brother Meng, if you need anything else, just tell me."
Meng Yan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Captain Dao."
Let's talk. Meng Yan turned his head and looked at the rough stone on the table. He was quickly recalling how to use the fire gilding method. Wei Xian had already sent several employees at the scene to quickly go to the film room to get the discarded film.
When my grandfather was a stone immortal, his friends were not only the jade masters in the jade world, but also countless skilled jade craftsmen from the Xia Kingdom, many of whom were called masters.
Fire gilding method, when Meng Yan and his grandfather went to a master's house to request to use a piece of jade to make a handicraft. Grandpa seemed to have a good relationship with that person, and the whole process of making was done without avoiding suspicion. Meng Yan stood aside and had nothing to do.
I wrote down the entire process in my head.
In ancient times, this kind of craft was generally only available to the royal family, and was used to imprint patterns on the surface of complex and subtle crafts.
The specific operation process is quite complex, because various issues such as temperature, strength, and shaping need to be considered during the creation of handicrafts. These things can only be controlled by the experience of the master craftsman, which is the so-called sense but ineffable.
