Chapter 117: The Legendary Emperor Green
"Sir, this way please."
The shopping guide lady smiled slightly, she was very pretty. The service attitude of the lady here is very good, she always smiles when she sees everyone, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.
She brought Qingfeng Li to the open space to the east, where there was an old master in his fifties who was dissolving stones.
The master craftsman's hands are rough, but they are extremely stable. One can tell at a glance that they are caused by perennial calculus.
In the industry of Jieshi, the older the age, the richer the experience and the better the technology.
"You want to unravel this mallet stone?"
The old master looked at the hammer and stone in Li Qingfeng's hands, his eyes were full of surprise.
He is Ting Yunxuan's stone-resolving master, and he has worked here for many years, so he naturally knows the origin of this hammer stone.
This club stone has been kept here for a full year, and no one cares about it at all, but the young man in front of him actually spent 10,000 yuan to buy a stone that no one is optimistic about. Isn't this being taken advantage of?
"Master, please grind slowly from the outer skin, don't cut it from the middle, otherwise it will damage the jade inside."
Li Qingfeng smiled slightly, and said to the old master.
He is a master stone gambler, and he also knows about Jieshi very well, and he deliberately confessed that he is afraid of destroying the jade inside.
Hearing Li Qingfeng's words, the old master rolled his eyes, and it would be hell if there were jadeite for this stick and stone.
Generally, the stones are untied from the middle, which is more convenient and more intuitive.
But Li Qingfeng asked to grind slowly from the outer skin, and the master could only do as he asked.
After all, Li Qingfeng was the client, and Master Jieshi was only responsible for cutting the stone.
It's just that, when Li Qingfeng said that the hammer stone had jadeite, the master scoffed at it and didn't believe it.
chi chi...
The master craftsman sprinkled some water on the stone, then took out a special scorpion, and slowly ground it against the surface of the stone.
The scorpion is 20 centimeters long, dark black, with burrs, and is a special tool for dissolving stones.
Many old craftsmen who solve stones will choose this kind of scorpion.
Layers of stone powder slowly fell off under the grinding of the scorpion and turned into debris.
After grinding for about 20 minutes, the skin was worn down by 5 mm, but it was still a black stone, and no green was seen.
"Hahaha, you're laughing at me to death. You still don't believe me when I said that this hammer stone has no jade."
Yang Jie laughed out loud, mocking Li Qingfeng.
The people around looked at Li Qingfeng with sarcasm. They all thought he was finished, and it was a shame to spend 10,000 yuan on a discarded stone.
If there is no emerald in this hammer stone, then Li Qingfeng will have to compensate Yang Jie one million yuan, and the people around are all optimistic about the show.
Liu Ruyan also frowned slightly, feeling a little suspicious in her heart, whether this stone contains jade or not. Of course, Qingfeng Li told her that there was, so she decided to take a look and trust Li Qingfeng.
"Sir, why don't you just cut it from the middle, it will take too much effort and time to grind it bit by bit."
The old master was obviously not optimistic about the jadeite in it, so he suggested that Qingfeng Li use a stonecutter to cut it from the middle.
The advantage of cutting the stone from the middle is that it saves time, and you can see whether there is green in it at once, but there is also a disadvantage, that is, it may destroy the complete jadeite.
"Master, I'll give you an extra 1,000 yuan for processing. After working hard, let's grind it slowly from the surface."
Li Qingfeng naturally knew that it would take a lot of effort to grind a stone with a twig, so he directly added a thousand yuan to the master.
"Okay, listen to you."
The old master's expression brightened. He usually only spends 100 to 500 yuan for dialysis stones. Now that the young man in front of him gives him 1,000 yuan more, he is naturally happy in his heart.
Money, everyone loves it.
The old master wiped the sweat from his forehead, and continued to grind the stone with a scorpion.
Huh?
Is it green?
The old master's face changed. When he polished to ten millimeters, he finally polished a little green. This green is extremely rich, green and oily, greener than all the emeralds he has unwrapped before.
Is this the legendary imperial green?
The master was shocked,
Some can't believe it, if it is really imperial green, then it will make a fortune.
Such a large piece of imperial green is worth 100 million raw materials alone. If it is processed into jewelry and necklaces, the price will be even higher, and there is still no market for the price.
People around saw the green color, and they all knew that there was emerald inside, and some people were already ready to move.
"Little brother, I'll offer half a million. Can you sell me the stone?"
An obese middle-aged man with a beer belly said to Li Qingfeng.
He had already seen that the jadeite in this hammer stone was not simple, so he wanted to pick up a leaky basin, so he tricked Li Qingfeng into selling it to him.
In the stone gambling market, there are many obese middle-aged people, who are called "leak pickers". Their goal is to make profits from the newly green stones.
"Not for sale."
Qingfeng Li shook his head, directly rejecting the fat middle-aged man.
He had already seen that this obese middle-aged man saw Chulu just now and wanted to take advantage of it.
You said that it was fine if you took advantage of others, but you actually picked it up on your own head. Li Qingfeng didn't have a good look at him.
"Little brother, although there is a little green in this stone, it doesn't mean that it is all green inside. If there is only this little bit, you will lose money."
The obese middle-aged man obviously did not give up, and continued to persuade.
He likes the hammer and stone very much.
Betting on stones is all about experience and luck. If a piece of stone has only a little green, it will still lose money. Only a lot of green can make money.
"Don't worry about it, I can still afford to pay for this little money."
Li Qingfeng frowned slightly, and stopped talking to the obese middle-aged man, and asked the master to continue dissolving stones.
The old master wiped off his sweat, took a shovel, and continued to grind the surface of the stone carefully, for fear of hurting the green color inside.
green.
It's all green.
The old craftsman wiped off all the skin, revealing the green inside, which turned out to be a whole piece of natural green emerald, very green and very green.
The emerald is the size of a bowl, with the word "Emperor" written in the middle. It is green and oily, and the green is so eye-catching that people can't open their eyes.
Imperial green.
Is it really the legendary imperial green?
The old master burst into tears, he had been unraveling stones all his life, but he did not expect to unravel the legendary emperor green in his lifetime.
Imperial green is the emperor among jadeites, and the most precious jadeite.
There are only four pieces in the whole of China, and these four pieces are all of great origin. The first piece was obtained by Qin Shihuang, the second piece was obtained by Wu Zetian, the third piece was obtained by Yang Guifei, and the fourth piece was obtained by Empress Dowager Cixi.
Of course, the above four pieces of imperial green jadeite are now acquired by wealthy families in Kyoto, and each piece is a priceless treasure, priceless.
Seeing the imperial green jadeite, everyone around went crazy, their eyes were full of heat.
"It turned out to be emperor green?"
Liu Ruyan's red lips parted slightly, her charming face was full of surprise, and her eyes were full of splendor when she looked at Li Qingfeng.
