"Okay!" The young Burmese felt disappointed when she saw that she had only picked a small piece, but she didn't show it, and still called her the rough stone enthusiastically, "A pound of wool and two taels of silver, this piece is two pounds and two taels. You two catties. A total of four taels of silver!"
Gu Ye dug out a five-tael silver nugget from his purse and threw it to the Burmese youth: "Don't look for it!"
Young people in Myanmar are also experts in selecting wool materials. He looked at the wool that Gu Ye picked at random and looked good, and there should be a great chance of bullishness, so he asked, "Girl, do you need us to cut this wool for you?"
Yo! Also help calcite! That's right, how can you attract more people to buy it if you don't dissolve the stone on the spot? She nodded, drew her fingers on the wool, and said, "Wipe a hole from here!"
The Myanmar youth raised his eyebrows when he saw that she had a confident look on his chest: Could it be that he has met a master? He took the piece of wool and came to a large grinding wheel, and asked the companion who came with him to shake the handle. He carefully put the side that Gu Ye indicated to the grinding wheel...
After a shrill sound, a hole the size of a pigeon egg was wiped in the wool. The Myanmar youth splashed a little water on the cut surface and said excitedly, "It's green! It's rising!!"
Several jewelry merchants approached. Sure enough, there was a touch of green on the sunroof that was wiped open. The Burmese youth grinned, looked back at Gu Ye, and said excitedly, "Girl, did you cut everything?"
Gu Ye nodded and said, "Wipe them all away..."
If this piece of wool can solve half of the jadeite, it can also be worth twenty or thirty taels of silver, which is a small increase! The young Burmese felt that this was an opportunity given to him by God, and naturally he should treat it with caution.
He started rubbing from all sides. The more I rubbed it, the more excited I became, except that the leather shell on one side was a little thicker, the others just rubbed a thin layer to reveal the jade inside. With the passage of time, the light in the eyes of young people in Myanmar is getting brighter and brighter.
When a piece of jadeite about the size of a woman's fist had completely peeled off its outer skin and was presented in front of everyone, a jewelry merchant exclaimed, "Spring belt color, it's actually spring belt color!"
The spring belt color is a piece of emerald with two colors of purple and green at the same time, which means spring flowers are in full bloom.
Gu Ye took over the jade, although it was only a waxy seed, the water head was good. Large areas of blue-green, and beautiful violet, perfect transition, not bad.
"Girl, if you find a good craftsman for this piece of material, you should be able to pick up two small-caliber bracelets that you can wear. This kind of lively spring color is just right for a little girl of your age!" The young Burmese saw the onlookers. In the crowd, some people were already eager to try, smiling brightly, and their exposed teeth were extraordinarily white against the dark skin.
Ling Juechen said unhappily, "It's not a little girl anymore, she's already married!"
His wife was ten years younger than him, and she was younger. Going out, the daughter-in-law is always mistaken for a little girl, and he is either considered to be the little girl's brother, or even lame, and even says that he is the daughter-in-law's father. He almost couldn't help but slaughter the man!
After that time, he began to swear an oath of sovereignty from time to time!
Gu Ye glanced back at him and said, "Can't you wear more lively jewelry when you get married?"
"Of course! My daughter-in-law is so beautiful, any jewelry is suitable!" Ling Juechen said with a strong desire to survive. Duke Zhen rolled his eyes - shame!
A young man in half-old clothes came over hesitantly, gave Gu Ye a polite salute, and said, "Girl..."
Being stunned by Ling Juechen's eyes, he immediately changed his tune, "Madam! Do you plan to keep this material for yourself, or do you want to sell it?"
"This is the first piece of jade that I opened. Although the texture is only average, it has a commemorative meaning. Is Xiongtai the shopkeeper of a jewelry store?" Gu Ye noticed that his hands were rough and had calluses on the index and middle fingers. Accidentally, it should be able to carve jade by himself.
The young man nodded embarrassedly and said, "The family has a small jewelry shop to make a living, and I want to take the opportunity to collect some materials..."
"I'm going to try my luck again. If I open up jade again and don't keep it for myself, I'll sell it to you, the shopkeeper!" Gu Ye said with a smile.
The young man gave another salute: "Thank you, Madam, then!"
Gu Ye asked back: "The shopkeeper doesn't buy a few pieces of wool by himself, why don't you try your luck?"
The young man paused for a moment, shook his head decisively, and said, "It is a small business, and there is no excess funds. For the sake of safety, let's buy the raw materials!"
Seeing that many people were already tempted, the young Burmese hurriedly urged: "The opportunity cannot be missed, it will never come again. These brothers, don't you buy two pieces to try? Maybe you are as lucky as this auntie, the first piece. How about taking out jade?"
"Who knows if you colluded to lie to us?" Suddenly, a voice came from the crowd. A few people who were eager to try, let go of their minds again.
The Burmese youth caught a glimpse of the figure in the crowd, who was one of the jewelry merchants who pressed his prices. He secretly hated in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.
Fortunately, the young lady who bought his wool did not leave, but shuttled through piles of wool, reaching out to touch it from time to time. Originally, he thought he was a connoisseur, but it didn't look like the other party's behavior. It seems that the spring ribbon just now was just a mistake.
Gu Ye had almost touched the material, and had to sigh in his heart that the rough jadeite stone purchased by this young Burmese man was genuine and had a high chance of being green. Nearly half of the wool material contained jadeite.
She wrote down a few pieces of material that made her feel the most, and turned to her father and brother and said, "Father, second brother and third brother, do you want to take a gamble and try your luck?"
Chu Mufeng and Chu Mutong dared to be interested, but Duke Zhen said with a smile, "You guys can play, I guess all my luck in my life will be spent on finding your precious girl. In the past two years, I have almost lost every bet! "
Chu Mufeng and Chu Mutong tried their best to control their expressions and not let themselves laugh. Indeed, my father's gambling luck is really not very good. Even the game of short draw and fine wine is always the one who loses. During Chinese New Year, play this game and get drunk!
"If you lose, you will lose! It's not worth a few coins. It's a rare opportunity, so let's play with him. I know that you don't have much money in your private house, so the money for the stone bet this time is mine!" Gu Ye made a gesture to his dad. Unspoken expression.
The money in the family is all in charge of the mother, and when the father invites his colleagues to dinner, he has to give the mother money in advance!
"Brothers have worked hard for their sister, and this time, the bet is all on the younger sister's head. Especially the second brother, who was separated from the second sister-in-law and the baby shortly after the child was born. The third sister-in-law is also about to give birth, if it wasn't for me... " Gu Ye said a little apologetically.
Chu Mufeng's face became stern, and he was unhappy: "What are you talking about, little sister? You are estranged from your brothers after only a few days of marriage? You are our sister, and your brothers should do whatever they want!"
Duke Zhen nodded and said, "That's right! How can there be a reason for the elder brother to spend and let the younger sister pay for it? Your elder brothers have money in their pockets!"
Gu Ye had to say something else, the third brother said, "Okay, although your brothers are not as rich as you, a little rich woman, there is still money to buy a few pieces of material. If we really let you pay, we will be able to return home. Treat us with family law, do you believe it?"
"How can you be so exaggerated?" Gu Ye smiled, but no longer insisted.
When the father and brothers were picking wool, Gu Ye followed closely. The old man really had his own non-Emirate attributes, perfectly avoided all the rough stones with emeralds, and picked a lot of waste.
The brothers are lucky, at least two of the selected pieces are bullish. Among the rough stones picked by the third brother, there is another piece that she is about to start with.
Gu Ye came to his father's side and whispered to him: "There are actually some tricks in gambling stones. For example, this one..."
Gu Ye took a piece of material that he liked, pointed at the leather shell and said, "Look at the different shades of green and yellow-green on it, do they look like pine flowers? Usually, the leather shell has pine flowers on it, and emeralds come out of it. The odds are higher."
"There is also this piece, which is a strip or sheet of fine sand that is different from other places on the surface of the original stone. Some of the parts that wrap around the entire stone look like pythons and ropes, which are called python belts."
"This aunt... The young lady is indeed a connoisseur. This kind of python belt is indeed one of the important signs to determine whether there is seed, water, or color in the rough jadeite." The Burmese youth appeared behind the father and daughter, smiling authentically.
Duke Zhen looked at the two pieces that his daughter picked, they were a little big. The largest piece, at least one hundred kilograms. It's not that he can't take out more than 200 taels of silver, but he's afraid that there will be no jadeite in it, and the girl will feel guilty, and she is hesitant to buy it. But if you don't buy it, you are afraid that the girl will blame herself for not trusting her.
"Father, don't you want to open a piece of jade yourself and make a set of jewelry for your mother? In Dongling, there is no such opportunity!"
Most of Dongling's jewelry is carved, and a bracelet of ordinary texture costs several hundred taels of silver. The two pieces she chose for her father, not to mention one set of jewelry, even ten sets of eight sets can be printed! Absolutely earned! ! Gu Ye was confident.
"Okay! Listen to my daughter, I want all these pieces, put it on the scale!" Isn't it just a few hundred taels? Duke Zhenguo gritted his teeth and bought it. In his heart, daughters and daughters-in-law are tied for first place.
If he really borrowed his daughter Ji Yan and offered a good idea, he would carve a forbidden step for his daughter-in-law to press a skirt! (Forbidden step, an ancient ornament, is generally made of jade pendants of different shapes, woven together with colored threads, connected into a string, tied around the waist, the original purpose is to suppress the skirt.)
Gu Ye helped her brothers choose two more pieces, and then marked all the pieces of wool that she was optimistic about, so that the Burmese youths weighed them.
