Chapter 57: Disaster never comes alone

The jadeite rough stone is not big, it is just a big big bread.

Su Ji picked up the jadeite rough stone and looked down. The cut was green and beautiful.

Apart from this, he couldn't see any reputation, but he felt that the jadeite rough stone was just like this, and he was a little disappointed.

People are more likely to know themselves. No matter whether they watch art exhibitions, visit museums, or visit the world, they don’t think so. They are just like this, just a common man.

He prefers the powerful and violent powers of nature, such as water tornado, fire tornado, Katatonbo lightning, death icicles, etc. So far, he has only seen those things online, but he still doesn't know.

After seeing this, will you feel that it is boring?

"How is it?" Xiahou's father came over, "Is it good-looking?"

"Yes." Su Ji said, he was just talking and thinking, and felt that jade was not as beautiful as the colorful black scales on his body.

Su Ji raised the jadeite raw stones and looked at them carefully in the sunshine, hoping to have a new experience.

"Not what you think so... I want to use this." Xiahou's father snatched the jadeite rough stone from Su Ji's hand, and then took out a flashlight from somewhere to aim it at the cutout.

"The ancient saying goes, "Observe the color", high-quality jade can give people a lush and lustrous feeling, with a smooth and neat surface. Jade with inferior products is often dull in color, dull and matte, accompanied by orange peel phenomenon

…” He started to show off and talked endlessly. After saying that, he handed over the jadeite rough stone and flashlight to Su Ji.

Su Ji learned something, holding the jadeite raw stone in one hand and the flashlight in the other hand illuminated the incision, staring at the incision, his head got closer and closer, and he blinked his eyes, and seemed to see the jadeite raw stone in a trance

The interior... except for the green layer on the surface, the interior is actually white?

"Uncle." Su Ji shouted hesitantly.

"Yes." Xiahou's father responded, "How?"

Su Ji only heard about gambling stones. He only learned a lot of knowledge from the novel. He didn't dare to be proud of it. He asked: "Is a piece of jadeite rough stone good? It mainly depends on whether there is too much green inside it, right?"

"In addition to looking at the amount of green in the raw stone, we also need to see whether the color is good. Imperial green is the best color among jadeites and the most expensive green, and then Zhengyang green, Qingshui..." Xiahou's father said

The less confident you are, “It should be like that.”

Su Ji could see that Xiahou's father was also swaying with less than half of the bucket of water.

No matter what, he probably knew that it would not be that simple to judge whether a piece of jadeite rough stone is good.

"Anyway, if you don't look good, you will know it at first glance. Good looks must be expensive." Xiahou's father said arbitrarily.

Su Ji was embarrassed to say that he thought the colorful black was the best, and I wonder if it was considered narcissism.

He thought for a while and said, "Everyone has a different aesthetic taste, just like house decoration, some people like mahogany furniture, some people like simple and generous... Anyway, if it is expensive, things are rare, they must be rare and expensive, and then some people like them.

, at least it can be hyped up."

He is a common man and always thought that many of the jade, agate, coral, pearls, etc. were like diamonds, and most of them were hyped by capital. "Diamonds are forever, and one is passed down forever" is a classic advertising vocabulary.

Otherwise, why are more beautiful artificial diamonds not as good as so-called natural diamonds?

Su Ji can now distinguish many colors, but there is no level to accurately describe those colors, such as whether a green is light green, bean green, gray green, tea green, apple green or tender green, saying: "White has a little green in the white

Is it worth it?”

Xiahou’s father glanced at Su Ji, did not answer his question, and asked: “Is it okay to ask me if I have a little green in white… I’ll just use a flashlight to see what’s inside the stone?”

"Uh..." Su Ji didn't know how to explain, "There's a little bit vague."

"Do you know the historical origin of gambling stones?" Xiahou's father asked again.

Before Su Ji could ask, he started talking to himself.

"During the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, there was a jargon in the jewelry industry called gambling businesses. The so-called gambling businesses refer to the pair of eyes that jewelry players go to jewelry businesses to find jade..."

"The so-called gambling stone is to use uncensored jade to gambling. The jade raw materials are excavated, and there is a layer of rock shell on the outside. No one can tell what is inside the shell. Today, with the development of technology, there is no instrument.

Can detect it..."

"We often see small windows on many rough stones. Although these small windows are very likely to be green, you must be extra cautious when seeing small windows. If the seller can be sure that there is a lot of green inside, why don't he open it?

A big window, a good price..."

"No one can tell what is inside a piece of raw stone that has not been opened except for its shape and weight. So there is a saying in the stone gambling world - it is hard for gods to break the jade..."

Su Ji nodded subconsciously.

"So, when you use a flashlight, you want to see what the stone looks like, it is absolutely impossible." Xiahou's father said, "And from this cut, even if there is only a little green on the surface, it is definitely not white with a little green on the inside.

, but light green.”

He didn't expect that jadeite rough stone would be so good. As long as it's not too bad, it's enough to put on a bracelet and the jade pendant would be fine.

Su Ji didn't say anything, but just turned around with the jadeite rough stone, and soon found a gap next to the cut.

The slit is very small, with a trace of glue, but it still cannot be hidden from his eyes.

He tried to use his fingernails to tick the incision, but unfortunately his nails were too thick and no matter how hard they were, they would be useless.

Xiahou's father saw Su Ji's clumsy movements and said funny: "I knew that there was a way to fake the mouth, which was to cut small mouths on low-end gambling stones with poor water heads, and paste the thin slices of Gaocui to make the best...

I've tried it a long time ago, and I can't deduct it."

Su Ji opened his mouth, wanted to speak but stopped, and pursed his lips. The main reason was that he suddenly didn't know whether he should continue. If he proved that the stone was fake now, would Xiahou's father be embarrassed?

If you don’t lose face, you will lose your inner self. Moreover, if there is any problem with this jadeite rough stone, it will be exposed sooner or later. Even if you don’t lose face now, you will have to lose face.

"I'll try it." Su Ji went to the living room with the stone in his arms and found a fruit knife from the dining table. The blade was very thin and it was enough to use it.

Su Ji's eyes were very sharp and his hands were very stable. He aimed at the cutout of the jadeite raw stone, poked it hard, and then raised it.

"I have seen it several times, but I can't see it. It's definitely impossible-" Xiahou's father was talking when he saw Su Ji use a fruit knife to lift the green thin slices up, and the sound ended abruptly.

The original appearance of the jadeite rough stone is exposed, with a little green on the background color, and no green on the background.

"Why are you wearing autumn clothes on such a hot day..." Xiahou Yue walked out wearing a wide T-shirt, shorts, and a slightly wet hair and rosy face. She saw Su Ji first.

Then I saw Xiahou’s father holding the jadeite stone in a daze, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay." Xiahou's father came to his senses, "It may be impossible to help you with bracelets and jade pendants."

"Why?" Xiahou Yue looked at her head tilted for a long time, and finally found something strange. The color of the cutter at the jadeite rough stone in Xiahou's father's hand changed.

She has also read novels about gambling stones and knows about gambling stones, which means that her parents were deceived.

Xiahou Yue looked at Su Ji and saw Su Ji nodding.

Xiahou Yue bit her lip and said, "That, you will learn from your mistakes. This time I am cheated, I will not be cheated next time."

"And my mother and I don't care about bracelets and jade pendants at all, and we never wear any jewelry."

Xiahou’s father looked at Xiahou Yue. What a caring daughter he was, and finally showed a little smile.

"How did you find out there is a problem?" Xiahou Yue asked carefully.

"I saw a slit in the incision..." Su Ji said.

"So many of us have seen it, but we haven't found the gap. You can find it at a glance. It's so amazing." Xiahou Yue said.

Xiahou’s father noticed that Xiahou Yue’s eyes were shining when he looked at Su Ji.

He looked down at the jadeite rough stone, and then looked at his daughter. The stone was not given to him by his friend who was gambling stones, but he bought it on the roadside. As expected, greed will definitely lose, but it was not expensive at first, but now the stone has no

Sooner or later, such a caring little cotton jacket comes into other people's house, and I feel sad for a moment.

I went to greet the New Year, and then logged into the Warcraft for a long time, full of memories, alas...
