The reason why Yang Qi was able to study the glass seeds for half a month was because he took advantage of the time difference. The glass seeds were brought back by themselves instead of being delivered by a security company.
On the same day, Shen Yuxuan arranged for the stone to be cut. The whole process lasted for six or seven hours and ended late at night. The rough material obtained by Shen's Jewelry this time, the jadeite that was cut out, was more than 100 million, just the part that was raised by gambling, and Yang Qi's dividend was about 15 million. This was more than Shen Yuxuan had estimated before.
There were nearly a hundred pieces of rough stones, but only a few were lost in gambling. Although some of them were because the rough stones from the Myanmar public auction were of higher quality, this was also inseparable from Yang Qi's level of gambling on stones.
"Xiao Yang, your level of gambling on jade is already better than mine." Huang Shi looked at the jadeite he had unearthed and said with admiration.
With such a high probability of betting increase, probably only the Jade King can do it. Apart from the Jade King, he has never seen anyone else who can achieve such a level at Yang Qi's age. Even Sun Lei is a little bit inferior to Yang Qi.
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Huang." Yang Qi said quickly.
He deliberately chose rough stones that would fail very quickly. If Huang Shi knew that the more than 100 rough stones he bought were almost all glutinous jadeite, he would be even more shocked. This was something that even the Jade King could not do. The Jade King had never failed in gambling, but this did not mean that every time the Jade King solved the gambling stones, they were worth hundreds of thousands or even millions.
The rough material I bought for five hundred turned out to be jadeite worth more than one thousand, which can also be considered a gamble on price appreciation.
"With your talent, I believe it won't be difficult for you to become a master in a few years." Huang Shi looked at Yang Qi and said.
The master of gambling on stones!
That person is beyond the level of gambling stone master. In the jade world today, there are no more than ten gambling stone masters, and these people are almost all in their sixties or seventies, and some are even older than Huangshi. For example, Mr. Yun, his gambling stone skills are at the level of gambling stone master, but his status is such that even the Jade King has to be polite when seeing him.
It’s not that Mr. Yun’s gambling stone skills are better than the Jade King’s, but whether it is Mr. Yun’s gambling stone skills or his own cultivation, they are worthy of admiration. Even the Jade King admires him very much.
As for above the master of gambling on stones, there is the king of jadeite.
The Jade King's gambling stone skills have surpassed those of ordinary gambling stone masters. Even if it is Elder Yun's level, there is still some gap compared to the Jade King.
"It's not easy to become a master of gambling on stones." Yang Qi said with a wry smile.
A master of gambling on stones not only needs superb gambling on stones skills, but most importantly, a good reputation in the gambling on stones community!
Xue Qingyan's gambling stone level is even close to that of the Jade King. Even if Elder Yun faces Xue Qingyan, he dare not say that he will win. However, Xue Qingyan is not a gambling stone master, but a gambling stone master. Because the entire jade industry is ashamed of him, he has no reputation at all. Without reputation, he cannot become a master.
"You are still young, you will definitely be able to do it in the future." Huang Shi smiled and continued, "The future of the jade world will belong to you young people."
Huang Shi felt exhausted after this trip to the Burma public auction and Liu Xiangnan's previous threats. After this trip, he no longer planned to participate in any rough material exhibitions, let alone represent the jewelry company in the exhibition.
Yang Qi was not surprised by Huang Shi's decision. If it weren't for Liu Xiangnan's threat and Shen Yuxuan's invitation, Huang Shi would not have participated in the Myanmar auction. He was even prepared to be ruined in the Myanmar auction. If it weren't for Sun Lei's words from the Jade King and Liu Xiangnan's death, his reputation would have been gone long ago.
At Huangshi's age, there is not much that he can value, and his gambling stone skills are unlikely to improve any further. Naturally, he does not want to lose the reputation he has accumulated over countless years before he gets old.
Huangshi left very quickly. Looking at the leaving Huangshi, both Shen Yuxuan and Yang Qi knew clearly that after Huangshi left this time, they would probably never see him gambling on stones in public again in their lifetime.
"By the way, regarding the jade shop matter that I discussed with you last time, I estimate that I can provide a batch of raw materials in another month." Yang Qi suddenly looked at Shen Yuxuan on the side and said.
"One month?" Shen Yuxuan was stunned, then said, "Then it's about time to start preparing now."
"So early?" Yang Qi asked in surprise.
"For this store, I plan to go for the boutique route, and the layout will be different from other stores. Naturally, I have to prepare the equipment and decoration early. "Shen Yuxuan said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Yang Qi nodded. Most stores like Shen's Jewelry are still mass-market and high-end. There are extremely valuable jade jewelry in the store, but there are also ordinary jewelry of little value.
After all, Shen's Jewelry is not an antique shop. There is no such thing as not opening for three years and then making a profit for three years after opening. It is impossible to give up ordinary customers for high-end customers.
“There’s nothing wrong with going for the boutique route, but there isn’t anything in the store that can serve as a signature piece of jewelry.” Yang Qi pondered for a moment before speaking.
Although the rough material Yang Qi bought this time was of great value, it did not contain any glass jadeite, which was hard to come by. Yang Qi was lucky to have come across one, because when he was at the Burmese public auction, the rough materials he observed were worth tens of thousands of yuan.
"I plan to take two pieces to the new store as the store's treasured jewels after the piece of glass is carved out." Shen Yuxuan said with a smile.
"That's good." Yang Qi nodded slightly. As a boutique, how could it not have glass-type jewelry? Even Shen's Jewelry Headquarters used to have glass-type jewelry as its flagship store. If the boutique didn't have it, it would seem a bit inferior.
Yang Qi and Shen Yuxuan discussed some matters about the new store. After all, this was the first time Yang Qi and Shen Yuxuan worked together, and Yang Qi himself didn't know much about business operations. In terms of operations, he mainly relied on Shen Yuxuan, and he mainly provided raw materials.
"Has there been any movement from the Liu family in the past few days?" Yang Qi seemed to have thought of something and suddenly looked at Shen Yuxuan and asked.
"Liu family?" Shen Yuxuan was stunned, then frowned and said, "There is nothing special about the Liu family these days, but Liu Xiangnan has not been buried yet."
"Not buried yet?" Yang Qi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. It has been almost a week since Liu Xiangnan died. Even as a big family, the Liu family should have considered the burial at this time.
"I don't know what the Liu family is thinking." Shen Yuxuan shook her head and continued, "Recently, Liu's Jewelry has been in turmoil. In the past, Liu Xiangnan was almost the only one running Liu's Jewelry. Now that he has suddenly died, everyone in the company is in a panic. And I heard that the Liu family intends to cash out their shares in Liu's Jewelry."
Although Liu's Jewelry is called Liu's Jewelry, it is not a full share of the Liu family. The same is true for Shen's Jewelry. There are very few large companies that can grow up and are solely owned by the family. The shares held by Shen Yuxuan and his father are only 80%. (To be continued)
