"To judge whether jade is good or bad, you need to look at its fineness. Fineness refers to the crystals in the jade. The size of the crystals determines the quality of the jade. The smaller the crystals, the better, and vice versa. Crystals are the internal structure of the jade. There are small columnar and cross-shaped crystals. Just shine a light on the jade and look for small snowflakes. The larger the snowflakes, the worse the jade."

"The second thing to look at is transparency. Transparency is also very important. Good jade will not be as transparent as glass. It is good if it feels like ice."

"Another thing to look at is the color. Green is the best color for jadeite, followed by violet, yellow, black, melon-skin green, etc. Hetian jade is white, and the white like mutton fat is the best, followed by yellow, green, black, and sugar color."

Qin Yu said a lot in one breath, and it was obvious that he really understood it.

Ji Zhinan glanced at his jade pendant and asked, "What about mine?"

"You..." Qin Yu examined it for a moment before speaking. "This piece of jade is very delicate and translucent. The carving is very exquisite, and every little detail is very delicate. Just like the phoenix above, the eyes are carved so vividly, as if it were alive."

"Both the carving and the jade itself are of top quality."

Something as perfect as this has a high market value.

After thinking for a moment, Qin Yu looked at Gu Yibei and Lin Que and asked, "Do you still remember the auction we attended in Country A two years ago?"

Gu Yibei frowned, his mind went blank.

Lin Que scratched his head: "I have no impression, I don't remember."

Seeing the two of them looking confused, Qin Yu remained calm as expected.

"Yeah, at the auction, one of us was constantly on the phone with work, and the other was constantly taking selfies and getting notifications on Weibo and private messages."

Gu Yibei, who was constantly working and on the phone, said: "..."

Lin Que, who kept taking selfies and the sound of his Weibo private message notification never stopped: "..."

"There was a jade pendant on display at the time. I remember that its color, style and size were not as good as this one, but it ended up being sold to a collector for 120 million yuan."

Qin Yu weighed the jade pendant in his hand and continued.

"Jade has been appreciating in value over the past two years. According to my estimate, I have at least 200 million in my hands."

"Shit!!!" Lin Que was the first to explode. He stared at the little gadget in Qin Yu's hand with wide eyes, and was so stimulated that he began to doubt his life.

"You mean... I worked like a dog all year, and in the end, I could only buy a few dollars of this?"

“…”

None of the other three paid any attention to him.

Ji Zhinan took the jade pendant from Qin Yu and looked at it for a long time before speaking: "Can you help me find out where this jade is from? Or... the meaning and origin of this jade?"

"Well..." Qin Yu pondered for a moment. "I only have a basic understanding of this, not a professional one. If you really want to know, you can only ask my grandfather. He might know something."

Ji Zhinan handed over the jade pendant: "Then please."

Qin Yu didn't answer, but looked at Gu Yibei.

The man nodded to him and said, "I owe you a favor."

Hearing this, Qin Yu raised his eyebrows: "Good fellow, it's not easy to make you owe a favor."

He took the jade pendant and said, "Okay, I'll go ask my old man and tell you when I have news."

Thinking of something, Ji Zhinan took out another card from his card bag and placed it in the middle of the table.
