"What do you want to carve this time?" Qin Yuanzheng asked, squinting his eyes and turning on the light to look at the jade.
"I have given this piece of jade to Sister An. Her elderly family member is celebrating her birthday and needs a collectible treasure as a birthday gift!"
Ye Qing smiled and said: "The color root of this piece of jade, according to my judgment, is a piece of royal purple, it should be the size of a goose egg."
Qin Yuanzheng looked at him in surprise: "You can see this!"
Ye Qing said confidently: "This junior still has this kind of eyesight, otherwise how dare he bet on stones!"
"I only saw that it was very rich inside, but I didn't dare to tell that it was the legendary royal purple!" Qin Yuanzheng did not hesitate, moved the jade directly into the studio, and began to process the pictures.
Slicing is the first step in carving jadeite. Whether it is a bracelet or a brand, slicing will not waste materials.
The water jet processing was very fast, and within half an hour a piece of royal purple the size of a goose egg was taken out.
As soon as this piece of jade was taken out, it instantly caught everyone's attention.
The goose egg-sized jadeite shows a rich and pure purple color with a very pure hue.
It shows grace and magnanimity, and the beauty of purple energy coming from the east. Around this piece of jadeite, purple energy lingers, rising like a purple smoke with the sky!
Qin Yuanzheng sighed: "I didn't expect that it turned out to be a top-quality piece of royal purple.
This is a legendary jadeite with extremely high collection value. How much luck does it take to cut it out? "
Ye Qing smiled coquettishly: "Junior is just lucky!"
"Mr. Qin, how much is this piece of jade worth!" Although he had already given it to An Ruoxi, when he saw this eye-catching piece of jade, Bai Hu was worried that it was being sold cheaply.
Qin Yuanzheng chuckled and glanced at Ye Qing: "I don't dare to put a price on this kind of top-quality jadeite.
Besides, since Ye Qing is willing to give up this piece of jade to this girl, it means that the friendship has transcended this piece of jade, and friendship is priceless. "
The white fox curled her lips and stopped talking!
"There's no back-end in this business!" Ye Qing held her waist in a funny way: "Besides, neither royal purple nor violet is suitable for you!"
Qin Yuanzheng smiled and nodded: "Ye Qing's words are wonderful, every piece of jade in the world has its own owner.
Tell me what you want to carve this time, but I will only do the work, and you will be the one to draw the drawings! "
"You can also draw pictures!" Bai Hu asked in surprise.
"Your Willow Leaf Spirit Fox card was designed by me myself!" Ye Qing smiled proudly.
The white fox was stunned for a moment, and the pair of bright eyes looking at him glowed with an intoxicating charm.
Ye Qing picked up the royal purple that Qin Yuanzheng placed on the table, looked at it carefully, and held it in his palm. It was cool and warm, and felt good. He muttered: "This piece of jade is not suitable for too much carving. Just keep it the same.”
Qin Yuanzheng nodded affirmatively: "Any waste of royal purple is a waste of natural resources, but the pattern must also be there."
Ye Qing picked up the paintbrush and painted an old plum tree on it, with branches twisted like dragons. Under the tree, an old man looked up at the sky. Four white cranes in the sky were flying or dancing around the ancient pine.
He picked it up and looked at it, and then placed a white crane standing still not far from the old man, looking at the old man with his head sideways.
"The plum tree shows nobility, and the flying crane has the ambition to reach the clouds. What a metaphor!" Qin Yuanzheng nodded in approval: "This old man seems to be in a high position!"
"I have retired and will retire in Nanshan!" An Ruoxin said with a sweet smile.
Qin Yuanzheng nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Ye Qing turned over the jadeite and wrote a line of small words on the back, "Fang He Weng, Fang He Weng, Fang He Weng". In the southern mountain, he stood quietly against the plum blossoms and watched the purple air, smiling at the morning glow and asking about the breeze.
Qin Yuanzheng took a look and asked with a smile: "It seems that this elder has five sons, four sons, Ling Yun, and one son by his side."
"Grandpa, how did you guess it?" Qin Mingyue, who had been silent all this time, asked in surprise.
Not only was she surprised, even sisters An Ruoxi and Bai Hu looked at him in surprise.
"Ye Qing painted a plum wife and a crane. This pattern has an allusion. It tells the story of Lin Bu who lived in seclusion in a lonely mountain and took plum as his wife and crane as his son.
But Lin Bu only raised two white cranes, but this pattern has five.
Cranes were called first-class birds in ancient times. Four cranes flying high indicate that they are officials and occupy a prominent position, and one crane is guarding them to fulfill their filial piety! "Qin Yuanzheng said slowly.
When An Ruoxi heard this, she was overjoyed and bowed Yingying: "Thank you very much, Master!"
Ye Qing cupped his fists and returned the salute: "Congratulations to sister, the Monkey King has finally arrived at Leiyin Temple and achieved the status of Fighting Saint Buddha."
The two people teased each other, making everyone laugh loudly.
Ye Qing reminded with a smile: "Don't forget grandma to please grandpa, otherwise good things will take a lot of time. Choose the best jadeite from this material and give grandma a bead string!"
Qin Mingyue said suspiciously: "Why is it a string of beads and not a bracelet? You must know that the value of the bracelet is much higher than that of the bead chain."
"The gift given to everyone must be unique." Ye Qing said with a smile:
"As the grandson-in-law of the head of the family, she has to give her mother-in-law a pair of lucky bracelets. Otherwise, her mother-in-law will have a difficult time."
"What is a blessing bracelet!" An Mengxi asked in surprise.
"The inner ring of a lucky bracelet is round, the outer ring is round, and the bars are round, which means it is complete and complete. This kind of bracelet pays attention to fine roundness and thick bars, solemn and upright!"
Ye Qing explained with a smile: "Your mother-in-law will be blessed with many children, so it is appropriate to give her a blessing bracelet."
"Thank you for the tip, little lady, I will remember your great kindness!" An Ruoxi joked: "As for the jewelry, I will design it together for the little girl to wear on her wedding day."
"I also want a string of beads. The beads are smaller than the ones for grandma, and decorated with a drop-shaped pendant."
Ye Qing looked at her face, neck and wrists, and said thoughtfully: "A pair of drop-shaped earrings, a pair of beauty bracelets, and an egg noodle are enough!
The rest of the materials were simply made into bracelets. Since you have four sisters-in-law, it would be appropriate to give them bracelets! "
Qin Yuanzheng looked at the cut violet slices and calculated the materials. He smiled and said: "Ye Qing's calculations are very accurate. The materials are just used up. The bracelet core is engraved with a brand, so it would be good to give it away."
He didn't mention the car beads and scraps. He had already seen that not only was An Ruoxi herself a rich man, but her husband's family was also one of the richest.
This kind of people only want high-quality products and don't consider wasting materials.
An Ruoxi chose the style of the bracelet, and the group walked out of Qiaodiaoyipin.
Arrive at the hotel. Wang Gui has already made arrangements and is waiting for everyone to arrive to serve the food.
The waiter served the dishes like water, and Wang Gui opened a bottle of 1982 Lafite and filled it for everyone. Then he looked at Ye Qing and smiled:
"Brother, you are really awesome. I was very ambitious about that piece of material. I really wanted to cut it open. Fortunately, I listened to my brother's words. Otherwise, three million would have been lost."
Ye Qing smiled: "There's nothing to be proud of. Boss Wang is lucky. If you were unlucky, you wouldn't listen to what I say."
Wang Gui laughed, looking very happy, and picked up the goblet: "For today's gathering, let's drink one together."
Everyone raised their glasses and took a sip with laughter.
Ye Qing then asked with a smile: "I heard that a high-priced rough stone was released in Guangdong, and it was opened by the owner of a stone betting shop, my sister, who gambled on the emperor's crack. Has Boss Wang heard about this?"
Wang Changan glanced at him, smiled and said nothing.
Wang Gui frowned: "I have actually heard of this matter. The four major families of Chen, Zheng, and Li came back from the public auction in Yangon for this piece of material.
After saving it for a few years, it was placed in Jieyang one after another, and it was the top bidder in the Sihui Public Market. Unfortunately, the price of that piece of material was too high, and no one dared to bet! "
Ye Qing pondered: "I am very curious about this material. I have always wanted to know why it appeared in Jie Gao even though it was bought by the four major families in Guangdong."
Wang Gui frowned and said thoughtfully: "Although my surname is Wang, I can only be regarded as a distant relative of the Wang family and rarely move around.
But they knew that this piece of material had not been divided into shares since the auction, and was jointly held by the four major families. "
He sighed: "Brother, you also know the current situation of stone circle gambling. The Ruili Jade Guild is strictly guarding against Guangdong businessmen, and it just doesn't intend to let Guangdong open another public sale.
In order to break this situation, the four major families will definitely release the stored materials so that the Jade Guild can steal the chicken but lose the rice.
But not everyone dares to bet on such a sky-high price tag. Boss Long Ruiwen has been cooperating with Tianlu Jewelry. He is proficient in stone gambling and has a rich net worth, so he is naturally the first choice. "
"Are there no experts in Guangdong who dare to bet on that piece of material?" Ye Qing said suspiciously, "I have to transport it thousands of miles to Jigao."
Wang Changan sighed: "In those days, various stone gambling masters returned to seclusion. Even if they did not quit the stone gambling circle, they switched to selling rough stones or dealing in jade jewelry.
Nowadays, the stone gambling circle is in a state of insecurity.
And even if they dare to gamble, no one will risk all their wealth.
Apart from the Jade King, the only one who really dares to open that stone is General Jade.
But no one except the person involved knows what the mystery is. "
"General Jade! This nickname is domineering." An Mengxi asked curiously: "Who is General Jade?"
"General Jade is Mr. Long Ruiwen!" Wang Changan explained with a smile: "When Mr. Wen was born, Yangon Public Betting Stone rose nine times and collapsed, second only to King Jade, and was respected as General Jade in the circle.
It's just that Mr. Wen has an arrogant personality and has never been willing to be used by others. He is a lone stone gambler.
Even though he opened a stone betting shop in Jie Gao, his relationship with the Jade Guild was not good. "
Ye Qing's eyes flickered: "Since General Yu has opened a store in Jiegao, he is also a member of the Jade Guild. How can the relationship be bad?"
Wang Changanruo gave him a meaningful look: "The rumors are related to General Yu's married wife. The truth of the matter is unknown."
"General Jade also has a married wife!"
Ye Qing was really surprised. After staying with his master for a whole year, he found out that he had raised two Burmese girls in Muse.
But I have never heard that he has a married wife.
"Well, General Jade's wife was also the director of the Ruili Jade Guild, and she was known as the most beautiful woman in the stone circle!"
Wang Changan sighed: "After I got married to General Yu, I don't know what happened, but I walked away to the other side of the ocean and never came back.
It was at that time that General Yu settled in Jie Gao and opened Longrui Gambling Stone Shop. "
Ye Qing's heart tightened slightly, he raised his glass and said with a smile: "I won't talk about these old things. To be honest, it is an honor for me to get to know these two brothers when I come to Tengchong this time.
My little brother's home is in Kyoto. No matter who goes to Kyoto in the future, he must inform me and let him fulfill his friendship as a landlord. "
"Brother, you are a generous person at first glance!" Wang Gui laughed and said, "You heroines are also women, and I am lucky to know you all in my next life."
Everyone raised their glasses and took a sip together.
Wang Guixiao asked: "Brother, Xiangyu masters all have their inheritance. I don't know who my brothers are from."
"I practice Wild Fox Zen." Ye Qing smiled: "I opened a stone gambling shop in Kyoto called Shitou Zhai. I gained all this experience by cutting stones myself."
Wang Gui sighed: "It turns out that my brother started his own business. I wonder if he has the idea of joining the company. We Guangdong businessmen are very hungry for talents!"
Ye Qing smiled: "You will lose your freedom when you join the company. I am used to it and can't stand that kind of restraint.
Besides, there are a lot of talented people in the stone gambling circle in Guangdong, and I was just an unknown person, and it was difficult to establish a foothold. "
"Brother is a real master. I have never seen anyone who can judge stones so accurately!" Wang Gui said solemnly:
"By joining a company, you can not only get the company's shares, but also get dividends. It is much less risky than starting your own business. If you are interested, I can help introduce you..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Wang Changan: "Boss Wang, if you search Shitou Zhai yourself, you will know why Ye Qing refuses to join any jewelry company."
"Is Shitou Zhai very famous?" Wang Gui was a little surprised. He took out his mobile phone and directly searched and clicked on the video. He saw an antique two-story building, crowded with people: "Business is so good!"
Ye Qing said modestly: "I'm just barely making ends meet!"
Wang Gui laughed loudly: "This is higher than my sister, the business of the stone gambling shops in Delong and Tengchong is much better.
It was me who talked too much just now, so I punished myself with a drink to express my apology. "Pick up the goblet and drink the wine in one gulp.
"Brother is also an open-minded person!" Ye Qing chuckled: "Actually, the eldest lady of the Chen family also recruited me, but I rejected it.
My younger brother likes to be free and hates being restricted, so he has no plans to join any company. "
"That's such a pity. Tianlu Jewelry is a tens of billions company." Wang Gui said regretfully:
"I don't know how many masters of stone gambling have squeezed their heads to get into it. My brothers started their own businesses and became their own bosses, but the money they make is far behind compared to Tianlu Jewelry's stocks and dividends!"
"Pfft", An Mengxi laughed: "Boss Wang, you are mistaken, this young man from Kyoto has much more wealth than Tianlu Jewelry.
Just trying to recruit the young master from Kyoto with just a little bit of shares and dividends is just a dream. "
Wang Changan and Wang Gui looked at Ye Qing in shock. His net worth was much more than that of Tianlu Jewelry. Where did this kid get so much money?
Wang Gui stammered: "Real or false!"
"Sister Mengxi made a wild guess!" Ye Qing smiled modestly: "Although I have a small fortune, I can't compare with Tianlu Jewelry.
However, my younger brother is very curious about Tianlu jewelry. "
