The cut part has a clear color. The outer ring is a thick yellow leather shell, and a slightly moist white mist layer can be seen inside.
But this knife obviously hasn't cut into the real jade flesh part of the jade.
"It's Violet!"
Ni Dehong took a flashlight and simply shined it on the open window a few times, and saw a condensed purple light coming from under the fog layer.
He sighed and said: "In the past, jadeite was always green, but in recent years, other variegated jadeites can also be sold at good prices."
"When you meet customers who like it, this bright color is actually more popular. Variegated colors are better than colorless..."
Li Yangqiu said: "Violet is not a variegated color. Mr. Ni needs to know that the consumption power of women is much higher than that of men these days."
"If it were really a violet, sometimes the price would even more than double..."
Old Man Ni scoffed at this conclusion. He continued to shine the flashlight and said:
"Looking at it now, the seed water of this material is very old, and it has the smell of old ice oil. It can be seen that the oil is very good. It should be iced to a high level when it is shipped."
He turned to look at Tang Songyuan and said, "Do you still want to continue cutting?"
Tang Songyuan said: "Of course I will continue cutting. Does Mr. Ni have anything to say?"
Ni Dehong touched the fog layer on the woolen window surface and said, "My suggestion is to cut it vertically along the edge of the fog layer."
"Don't underestimate this layer of mist. In some places where people do cutting dishes, this layer of mist can also be used to make flowers."
Li Yangqiu nodded in agreement and said, "That's true. Excessive changes in color from the fog layer to the jade flesh can sometimes have unexpected effects in later processing."
It took more than an hour to finally remove all the leather and wool from this piece of wood.
There is only a layer of white fluorescent 'clean material' left on the outside.
When Tang, Song and Yuan looked through the vision, the flesh part of the violet jade was only 2.8 kilograms, and now more than 1 centimeter of fog layer is added.
The overall weight reaches 4.5 kg.
Ni Dehong looked at the blank with sharp eyes and said: "It's perfect, there are no cracks inside at all,"
"This side basically achieves the effect of high ice seed. Although this side only has ice seed and a little snowflake cotton, it does not affect the pick-up and finished product effects."
He looked up at Tang Songyuan again and said, "Can you tell me how much you spent when you bought it?"
Tang Songyuan coughed lightly, took out the piece of Houjiang material from his pocket, and said, "Together with this small material, it cost 110,000."
"Oh no! What are you talking about? It's only 110,000 yuan!" Li Yangqiu's eyes widened and he looked at Tang Songyuan in disbelief and said:
"Do you know how much this piece of material is worth now?"
Naturally, Tang Songyuan didn't know much about the price, so he immediately asked, "How much do you think it's worth?"
Li Yangqiu hummed twice and said: "This kind of full-color violet, if you want to get bracelets of this size, you can probably get seven or eight bracelets. A conservative estimate is seven. A bracelet sells for 300,000 to 400,000!"
"There are leftovers from the remaining bracelet rings, and they can be used to make more than a dozen brands and high-quality small items. The conservative estimate is 500,000 yuan."
"This doesn't take into account the premium for the high-quality ice here, so your piece of material can be sold for at least 2 million. This is a ridiculous profit of almost 20 times."
Li Yangqiu focused on profits, while Ni Dehong focused on the small piece of Houjiang material.
He took it and looked at it, but quickly gave up.
The discarded shoes are usually left on the workbench without giving them a second glance.
"Have you really never played stone gambling before?" He looked at Tang Songyuan and asked.
Tang Songyuan responded calmly: "No really. I have only read about it in novels before and don't know much about it."
Ni Dehong nodded incomprehensibly, and then fell into deep thought. After a long time, he suddenly spoke again:
"My old man has been playing with stones for so many years. This is the first time I've met someone as lucky as you, but you really don't know anything about stone gambling..."
"Why don't you accept me as your teacher? I'm getting older and I can't play anymore. When you become a teacher, you can choose any piece of material in the room."
Seeing that Tang Songyuan was stunned on the spot, Ni Dehong raised his eyebrows and added, "You know, there are materials as big as glass and jade in there."
Ni Dehong's jade wool collection does include glass wool, and the weight is quite large, and the number is more than one piece.
Tang Songyuan discovered it when he and Li Yangqiu were visiting just now.
Before Tang Songyuan could say anything, Li Yangqiu became anxious first, raised his hand and pushed him and said:
"Why are you standing there so stupidly? Why should you hesitate about this kind of opportunity? How many people want to become Master Ni but don't have this opportunity..."
But the problem in Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties was not that simple.
First of all, it is true that he has clairvoyance powers. It is not a problem that he will develop slowly and develop sooner or later.
But with Mr. Ni as my teacher, the process of development will definitely avoid a lot of detours.
Moreover, I can also draw on a lot of his network resources, which can be regarded as a huge benefit without any harm.
On the contrary, what can Old Man Ni want for himself?
Can you still take away the clairvoyance ability? He hasn't even figured out how to play with this thing yet...
Thinking of this, he immediately said with joy: "Of course I am very willing to become Master Ni as my teacher. I wonder if Mr. Ni has any other requirements?"
Ni Dehong said: "At such an old age, I don't have to worry about food, drink and housing, and I don't have any enemies. What can I ask of you?"
"I don't care about the red tape, but I have to make it clear to you. I used to have a son, but he passed away twenty years ago. Now I am taking over my son's place as a disciple. You still call me master, but he is actually my son." Disciple, if you kneel down now and kowtow to me, we will have the status of master and disciple."
Tang, Song and Yuan were also unambiguous and did not care about the matter of accepting disciples for their sons. They immediately knelt down and kowtowed three times.
Li Yangqiu strode over with a smile, brought a cup of tea and handed it to him: "Here, serve tea!"
Tang Songyuan glanced at him, but still took it and handed the tea respectfully: "Master, please drink tea!"
Old Man Ni took it with a smile and took a satisfied sip.
But he quickly spit it out with a pop, looked at Li Yangqiu fiercely and said, "Damn, I'm even cold!"
Li Yangqiu scratched his head in embarrassment, while Ni Dehong turned around and thought about it, felt it was not appropriate, took another sip and said to Tang Songyuan: "Get up!"
Tang Songyuan patted his pants and stood up. Ni Dehong put down his teacup and asked, "Where do you live now?"
Knowing that he and Li Yangqiu were now crowded in a rental house, he said calmly: "You can clean up later and move in."
"My place is big enough for you to live in, and the machines and equipment here are also available for you to use..."
