Chapter 170 Gem Processing(1/2)

It was still early. After Xia Yu and Zhou Chen and his son had a while, they did not plan to stay in the restaurant for too long. They said they wanted to do business. At noon, they picked up their girlfriends and came to have dinner together.

"Okay! I know you are a busy person, go there! You can actually do it if you come for lunch." Zhou Chen said very directly.

As a result, he was scolded by his father Zhou Minghao and asked Xia Yu to come to the restaurant for lunch, saying that they wouldn't feel at ease.

Zhou Chen didn't care about being scolded, and just laughed. He was thick-skinned and used to being scolded. In his WeChat group, diners wouldn't scold him for being a profiteer one day.

This will be no exception. The old customers in the restaurant also know Zhou Chen's personality. Even if he says he can help everyone taste seafood, he will guess it.

"This guy Achen must have blackmailed the supplier for this seafood meal at noon."

As for what Xia Yu was going to do, they didn't ask much. This guy made a fortune and some things were not easy to talk about.

When everyone cooperates, they only talk about seafood. Zhou Chen and the others did not think about getting involved in other aspects. It is not easy to be able to run their own restaurant well, and they don’t have the energy and ability to mess with other industries.

Xia Yu drove the car and flew away, then drove to Yulin Temple.

This is the concentration of Yuhai's jewelry market, with basically all kinds of jewelry, including the batch of rubies, sapphires and pearls he just got.

Of course, the most expensive ones on the market now are not these, but jade. High-end jade has already sold at sky-high prices. It’s just that, the price is not cheap, but it’s basically not cost-effective to buy it.

The price of diamonds is relatively stable. After processing and making them into diamond rings, it is more suitable for getting married.

The prices of red sapphires and pearls are not very stable, and there are many ways to do it. The prices of artificial gems and natural gems are very different. If you don’t understand them, you will easily be cheated.

Of course, Xia Yu did not come to Yunlin Temple to buy jewelry and jade.

He just wandered around and saw how the market was.

The real purpose is to buy tools for processing gems.

Yunlin Temple specializes in jewelry, jade and related industries. Naturally, this tool is sold and is not expensive.

Xia Yu purchased a complete set of gem processing tools and materials, mainly a processing platform with a motor, which can also be rotated and grinded manually.

He has to process a lot of gems, and the more materials he uses, the better.

He had never learned how to process gems before, but because of his ability to have space, and it was not particularly complicated.

He decided to do some of the ordinary gems himself, and he would talk about them later.

Of course, when practicing, you should first use the worst-quality gems to process them.

After he got these things done and brought all the tools into the car, he almost reached the point where Bai Yujiao was dismissed from get out of class.

When I drove to pick her up, I put all these tools into the space and assembled the work platform inside.

When I went outside Yuhai University, I picked up Bai Yujiao after school. The girl was full of red face and said with a smile, "I was going to eat in the cafeteria at noon!"

Xia Yu said, "Actually, I don't want to bother Brother Chen and the others, but they are so enthusiastic."

Bai Yu smiled and said, "If my husband is not here, they will definitely feel uneasy to eat."

Xia Yu smiled, "They are just too polite! No matter what, it's good not to cook by themselves."

Bai Yu nodded and said yes, and soon arrived at the restaurant as he chatted along the way.

This time, I don’t have to go through the employee passage and just go to the small private room I used to go to for dinner.

Zhou Chen’s mother Luo Minyi is already there. Zhou Chen is actually quite filial. He thinks about his mother if he has any delicious food, except for lifelong affairs...

There was another greeting between the women, and the conversation between Bai Yujiao and Aunt Luo was also very interesting.

Soon, I served the food and had a meal.

All of them are made of seafood made by Xia Yu, and not all of them are specialties.

Zhou Chen naturally continued to take photos and videos to tempt diners under the guise of tasting.

Everyone else is used to it, just eat what you talk about yourself.

There are also many days when I haven’t had dinner together, so I can talk about a lot of topics. For example, Bai Yujiao’s study status, her family’s health, etc.

After a sumptuous seafood meal, I was very satisfied.

Zhou Chen, a shameless guy, was still saying that it would be better to have such a dinner a few more times.

Then Xia Yu and Bai Yujiao didn't stay in the restaurant for too long. They drove for a romantic trip until she was about to go to class.

Xia Yu drove home by himself and agreed to pick her up again in the afternoon.

Bai Yujiao had already called her grandmother at home and told her that she and Xia Yu would go home for dinner tonight.

When Xia Yu returned home, Xia Xue was still in class and would not come back in the evening. He first took out a batch of seafood from the space and kept it in the fish tank on the balcony. This was their "food ration" during this period.

These seafood were basically what he put into the space when he went to catch Wa Island this time.

The seafood he brought to Bai Yujiao's family was not in a hurry to pack it. This is the one he is most skilled at now, and it can be done in minutes.

Then he settled down and prepared to start.

The gem processing platform is directly installed in the space. Some processing can be done through the ability of the space, while others use this tool.

For example, the final polishing of a gem is applied to a rotating disc with diamond powder and polished.

The design of the gems in front, including placing the tray, punching the blank, and reshaping the shape, is still done with tools first.

Plain-faced rubies feel completely different from carefully designed, crafted, grinded, and polished rubies.

When viewing with the help of light, the effects vary greatly. The shining light and layering are an art, which also makes the whole gem more beautiful and the value becomes higher.

Xia Yu is so skillful that he doesn't look like a novice.

Mainly in space, he can completely control everything inside like an arm, so that it can present the effect he wants to achieve the most.

He still thought it was too slow to process one in half an hour.

"After practice makes perfect, this speed should be greatly improved."

"There are more than 5,000 rubies alone. If you can't increase your speed, you can only find someone else to process them."

Xia Yu thought about it, it was really impossible to process everything by himself, which was a waste of time. At worst, he could pay some wages and find someone to process it.

Just process those fine gems by yourself. The largest ruby ​​weighs 65.8 carats. It must be designed and processed, otherwise it will be a waste of resources.

After practicing for a while, I processed five of the worst-quality rubies, and my speed increased as expected.

Seeing that the time was about the same, Xia Yu stopped processing gems and prepared to set off to pick up his girlfriend from school.

The seafood at home has been put in place, so I also left a message to Xia Xue, asking them to go home and get it for food.

When he drove to Yuhai University, he packed the seafood in the space and put it in the trunk.

He didn't buy other gifts, but there was actually a cultural relics market there, so he could go to Taobao and other places. But he didn't have time to go shopping at all, so it's fine.

After picking Bai Yujiao, the two of them went back directly.

When we moved three boxes of seafood home together, grandma was alone at home.

Bai Hanhai and his wife didn't come back from get off work so early, but Bai Gaorui was almost home.

After a while of greetings, Xia Yu and Bai Yujiao both started to clean up the seafood first. Then Xia Yu then handled the seafood he wanted to eat easily. He was particularly willing to take it to please his mother-in-law and her family were all good goods.

Among the top grouper, he took out the mouse spots, Dongxing spots, and Qingyi fish.

Needless to say, lobster and abalone are the most standard configurations.

There are many crabs. They live long and can be kept for a while. I won’t prepare them tonight to eat them.

Although the shrimps are still lively and leaping around now, Xia Yu can't guarantee how long it will take. If you take some out and eat them into your stomach, you don't have to consider this issue.

When Bai Gaorui entered the house, several people were busy making seafood!

He also came to join in the fun, but his grandmother drove him away and asked him to rest first.

Xia Yu and Bai Yujiao also completed their mission, and just leave the final cooking process to grandma.

Of course, she also asked Bai Yujiao to call Bai Hanhai and his wife and ask them the exact time they got home, so that they could arrange for steamed fish.

If the seafood is steamed for too long, it will definitely not be as delicious as freshly prepared, and the same is true for top seafood.

Bai Hanhai said that he would definitely get home before 7:30, and there was no way, at this time, during the peak hours of get off work.

Xia Yu chatted with Bai Gaorui and heard him talk about all the things that happened around the several pieces of Yuan blue and white porcelain he took out during this period.

Bai Gaorui is now completely sure that Xia Yu has no idea to deal with the buyer himself. With this time, he would rather grab more seafood. Okay! This seems to be something he likes to do. Every time he comes to his house, he brings all kinds of seafood for them to taste.

Today is no exception!

Bai Gaorui was too lazy to refuse. Anyway, it was his kindness and he would not be poisoned even if he took it.

What’s important is that his granddaughter Bai Yujiao likes to be with him. He hasn’t come home for several days. He hasn’t even said that he has fun in Hong Kong City, and he doesn’t want to come home after returning to Yuhai.

Xia Yu was still in his previous attitude. He entrusted the treasures to Yu Xiangzhai and they would handle them with all their powers. He just waited for the final result.

The others are fine, but unfortunately, after so many days, there is still no news about the bronze ritual vessel he wants to continue to acquire.

But there is no way to worry about this matter. After all, the transactions in China are not formal, so it is better to be cautious.

Bai Gaoze in the port city had some gazes, but he was also worried.

Xia Yu could only do this first, and, in his imagination, a bronze ritual vessel with only one or two pieces should not be much improved.

As expected, Bai Hanhai and his wife arrived home before 7:30. At this time, several dishes had been served on the dining table.
