This massive pile of raw jadeite stones weighs at least several hundred thousand pounds, stacked big and small, surrounded by a fence.
Ye Qiu approached, just like in the morning, and started touching the stones, first releasing a small portion of Spiritual Energy to see if he could sense anything.
Without a single reaction, he imdiately gave up, only stopping when there was a response.
From the mont he started touching stones, it took almost half an hour to sense Spiritual Energy from two stones.
The probability of gambling on stones is just too low; no wonder those gamblers lose so miserably.
When Ye Qiu had those two bodyguards help move them out, amidst this pile of raw jadeite stones, Ye Qiu released a large wave of Spiritual Energy on a big stone, but got no response.
It took close to another half hour, but he still didn’t find any other jadeite stones with reactions.
Ye Qiu knew not to waste ti here; the other jadeite stones were basically discarded stones. The middle-aged shopkeeper of the previous jade artifact store, Zhou Shengming, had been watching Ye Qiu touch the stones.
This jade artifact store’s shopkeeper was too.
"Just these two pieces," Ye Qiu said.
After weighing the two raw jadeite stones, they cost a total of 150,000, at two hundred per pound, approximately seven to eight hundred pounds.
When store employees proceeded with the cutting, a three-hundred-pound raw jadeite stone was moved to the stone carving machine for cutting. As the shop staff slowly uncovered the jadeite stone, quickly revealing a large area, they imdiately said: "Got it, looks like it’s of good quality."
Jade artifact store owner Zhou Shengming as well as this store’s owner ca over to take a look. As soon as they saw it, indeed it was a piece of quality Huacheng jadeite.
The so-called Huacheng jadeite, green colors are distributed in vein-like patterns, highly irregular; the texture ranges from coarse to fine, semi-transparent. Its base color is light green or other colors, like light gray or pea green, structured mainly in a fibrous and small grain structure. Huacheng jadeite’s characteristic is uneven green color.
So are dense, so sparse, with deep or light color. Huacheng jadeite also has a grain-only structure, lacking a water feel due to its coarse structure, so its transparency is often very poor.
Huacheng is middle or lower-middle grade jadeite.
Evidently, this chunk of Huacheng jadeite is of middle grade.
As the two young shop assistants continued to slowly uncover, revealing a large chunk of Huacheng jadeite stone, Zhou Shengming said: "Sir, this piece of Huacheng is quite good, worth a million."
Only a million?
To Ye Qiu, this isn’t very valuable after all, since consuming Spiritual Energy requires cultivation, even with the constant essence of the sun and moon, it requires him to spend ti cultivating.
Unbelievable, after such a long selection, only worth a million.
Seeing Ye Qiu’s expression, Zhou Shengming was surprised, a million is still a lot of money now; at least in Ruili, it could quickly be exchanged for an ordinary apartnt.
Many people can’t afford one in their lifeti, yet this young man doesn’t seem to fancy it.
Let’s cut the other piece too.
As the two young shop assistants started slowly cutting again, surprisingly, this chunk of raw jadeite stone revealed red.
"This is red jade, and high-grade," Zhou Shengming said.
Indeed, this large chunk of red jade, slowly cut open, revealed a very bright and obvious color of red jade.
The so-called red jade, jadeite with bright red or orange red color, and easy to encounter in the market. The red jade color forms after the formation of jade crystals, caused by hematite infiltration.
Its characteristic is bright red or deep red, good red jade has excellent color, glass-like luster, semi-transparent levels, red jade products are often middle or lower-middle grade commodities, but also have high-grade red jade: bright color, fine texture, very beautiful, popular with people, with celebratory color of jadeite.
The piece in front evidently is high-grade red jade, worth at least over two million, if processed into fine products, could be worth five million.
This mont, Zhou Shengming was a bit astonished by this young man; he rely bought two raw jadeite stones, unexpectedly, both he gambled right.
In no ti, he almost earned four to five million.
But Zhou Shengming noticed this young man seed indifferent.
Ye Qiu knew that massive pile of remaining raw jadeite stones was basically abandoned stones, gambling further was just wasting ti.
After putting into those two bags, having a bodyguard carry them, Ye Qiu continued to the next jade store to continue gambling.
From about two sothing in the afternoon until late six sothing in the evening, Ye Qiu gambled stones in five jade artifact stores, each ti not many raw jadeite stones but every ti it was a hit.
Apart from the previous Huacheng jadeite, red jade, the most was bean-type jadeite stones, plus another piece of water-type jadeite with decent value.
The so-called water-type jadeite, its jade texture structure slightly coarser than old pit glass type, luster, transparency also slightly lower than old pit glass type, akin or similar to ice type.
Its characteristic is clear through like water but with gentle luster, careful internal structure observation reveals slight "wave patterns," or small amount dark cracks and textures, occasionally can see very few impurities, cotton willow. Experts say water-type jadeite is lightly colored or colorless, sowhat inferior old pit type jadeite. Is middle-high quality jadeite, occasionally top-grade variety.
This piece of water-type jadeite, worth over twenty million, calculated roughly, one afternoon, Ye Qiu earned about fifty million.
In other people’s eyes, this fifty million is a large sum, but to Ye Qiu, it doesn’t count for much.
Now all these jadeite stones were moved back to Yang Guang’s mansion.
Yang Guang had already paid fifty million in dical fees, and another fifty million for eliminating those toxic gases.
Now, bringing back this batch of jadeite stones, Yang Guang was even more surprised, wondering how Ye Qiu gambled and hit so many jadeite stones all at once.
Of course, the price evaluation needed an appraiser.
"Boss Yang, no need for appraising, externally said fifty million, I’ll sell to you for fifty million now."
If they take these for fine processing later, definitely the value would multiple fold, but Ye Qiu had no ti for that, plus with Jinling’s Zhou Family Jewelry Group, even though they use jadeite stones, these values are too high, I’m afraid they won’t use them, so Ye Qiu eventually didn’t plan to sell to Zhou Family, better directly sell to Boss Yang.
"Doctor Ye, I feel I’m taking advantage of you," Yang Guang laughed.
Ye Qiu went to shower, then went to dinner, then back to his room.
When Yang Guang called those two bodyguards over to ask how Ye Qiu gambled on stones and hit every ti, Yang Guang thought this young man truly an extraordinary master.
