The Tengchong Shen family's art of photographing jade is divided into two volumes. The first volume is about photographing jade, and the second volume is about making elixirs and carving jade.
Wen Yuanshan did not hide any secrets when he taught Princess Jinsha the art of fortune-telling, but she had a lot of stones at home and was not interested in finding jadeite from the stones. Instead, she was quite talented in making elixirs.
As for the elixir created by Princess Jinsha, even Ye Qing almost suffered a big loss.
However, he never told Princess Jinsha that it was because the piece of white salt sand was so perfect that he judged it to be an elixir, just to make her feel a little in awe.
But Princess Jinsha thought that Wenyuanshan was hiding something secret, and Ye Qing discovered the elixir he had created.
Li Qingque squatted on the ground and looked more and more frightened.
If you don't see the two pieces of emerald split in two with your own eyes, you will never understand the horror of the life and death knife.
Even if Ye Qing tried to take advantage of the situation, this knife would determine that the piece of jade was half alive and half dead.
The texture of this piece of jade is also like what Ye Qing said is glass.
Blue comes from blue and is better than blue, which refers to this azure color.
Glass means that the crystals that form jade are so delicate that they are invisible to the naked eye.
The cyan color dissolves in the crystal and has no color roots. It is as natural and flawless as a piece of cyan glass.
This kind of jade is the legendary sky green jade.
It is not as precious as imperial green, because the conditions for the formation of cyan jade are too harsh.
Like imperial green, royal purple, top-quality blood jade, and golden jade, they are all rare and rare products that can only be encountered in hundreds of years.
Li Qingque suddenly discovered that he, a graduate student at Xiangjiang University, could not find the right words to describe the rarity of this piece of jade.
Moreover, it also knew why the grandfather, known as the Jade Dragon King, was so afraid of the Jade General Wen Yuanshan.
The master is imaginable that the apprentice is so frightened.
If this kid doesn't take the right path, I don't know how many people will jump from the rooftop when gambling on the stone circle.
She stood up, glanced at Ye Qing with complicated eyes, and suddenly put a green hand into her collar.
Ye Qing was immediately startled. In front of everyone, I am a serious person: "Miss Qingque, wait a minute..."
Li Qingque was stunned for a moment, one hand rested on her towering chest, and she said in astonishment: "What's wrong?"
"I bet on stones, not people!"
"Bah, what are you thinking of?" Li Qingque rolled her eyes at him charmingly, her pretty face was as bright as the morning sun, and she pulled out a green bag from her collar with a blushing face.
Ye Qing was immediately dumbfounded: "You still have a tips bag with you, is there any clever plan in it?"
Li Qingque snorted lightly and without saying a word, he untied the sealing rope of the brocade bag and poured out a ruby the size of a pigeon egg.
Ye Qing's eyes suddenly focused. Although this ruby the size of a pigeon's egg had not been cut yet and had not reached the most perfect shape, it was like a burning flame when held in her white palm. She lost her voice and said: "Pigeon" Blood gem!"
"You know gems too!"
Ye Qing shook his head: "I don't really understand, but I know that gems and jade are similar."
"This pigeon blood gem weighs thirty-five carats. As far as I know, it is the largest pigeon blood gem in the world." Before Li Qingque could speak, Wu Dan, who had been standing silently aside, suddenly said:
"It is also the largest gem unearthed in Mogok over the years. Due to the limitations of the cutting process, it was not cut and was transferred to Miss Qingque for 150 million."
Ye Qingxin said, as long as you have a price, that's fine: "Then how much my piece of green sky is worth, Miss Qingque knows very well."
The corners of Li Qingque's bright red lips twitched: "Although half of this piece of sky green is cut off, there is still at least about six kilograms. But part of it is not glass-like, and the color is not as green as sky."
Ye Qing nodded and admitted: "Although the planting water and color transition of this piece of jadeite are perfect, it is at least about four kilograms. It cannot be called sky green, but the ice glass type, sea and sky blue, is fine.
Therefore, the amount that reaches Tianqingcui is at least two and a half kilograms, which is about 2,500 grams. "
Li Qingque's heart sank. Four kilograms of ice glass Haitianlan was not worth much. It would cost him tens of millions at most.
But the price of 2,500 grams of sky green is quite high.
There is no price for this kind of top-quality jadeite on the market. The only way is to refer to imperial green.
The imperial green with top-notch water color costs 300,000 yuan per gram on the market.
If calculated based on this price, 2,500 grams is 750 million.
The stone gamblers who were watching all took a breath. A stone sold for 500,000 yuan was worth more than 700 million yuan after being cut. This was faster than robbing a bank.
Li Qingque did not hesitate: "Based on 750 million, I can write you a check or transfer the money tomorrow..."
Ye Qing smiled and glanced at the flaming pigeon blood gem burning in her palm: "I'm not short of money..."
Li Qingque knew what he was looking at, and said with a wry smile: "Little brother, I just want this pigeon blood gem."
Wu Dan nodded affirmatively: "This is the only piece of Mogok. Therefore, Miss Qingque cannot come up with gems of the same value as Tian Qingcui, unless you accept small pieces of gems."
Ye Qing rolled his eyes. Although he didn't understand rubies, he also knew that the value of a ruby must be judged based on a combination of color, transparency, clarity, cut, and weight.
Therefore, under the same quality, the greater the weight, the more valuable it is, especially high-quality rubies above 1 carat. Items above 3 carats are very rare, let alone those above 5 carats.
The reason why this pigeon blood red only sold for 1.5 billion is because this ruby is not cut.
No one can guarantee how much will be left after cutting, because rubies are also ten red and nine cracked.
This is because during the formation of ruby in the center of the earth millions of years ago, Cr gave it its bright red color, but at the same time, it was also the Cr element that caused the fine lines and cracks on the ruby crystal.
Only a very small number of ruby crystals grow to a sufficient size under the harsh natural conditions.
But as long as the pigeon's blood gemstone is cut and has more than 30 carats left, it will be worth at least 200 million.
If this pigeon blood gem was not in its original mine state, if this pigeon blood gem was made by Li Qingque.
No matter who comes up with such a big pigeon blood gem, Ye Qing will not take it.
Because rubies are the easiest to fake.
Mogok is the largest ruby producing area in the world, but it is also the place with the most fake rubies.
Princess Jinsha asked solemnly: "You really like this pigeon blood gem."
Ye Qing said seriously: "Liu Yue is a passionate girl, and only this pigeon blood gem is worthy of her."
Princess Jinsha rolled her eyes at him sadly, and said as if I was not enthusiastic: "Since Tian Qingcui is so big, if she loses, just cut her the jade of equal value."
Boss Li took a step forward and said with a smile: "Actually, Mr. Ye, you can make a price, even if it's a bit higher, I will take over this piece of green sky, Jade Dragon Jewelry."
