Chapter 150: Opened a black coal ball? 】
Qin Yian was excited by the movement on her neck.
Such a big movement must be a big treasure, an incredible and peerless jadeite.
Qin Yian's movements in cutting the stone changed from bold to graceful, and it was much gentler.
Qin Zhengyi saw her cautious movements and became nervous too. He was looking forward to what would happen to this stone.
Qin Yian planned to cut the stone completely by herself. When she couldn't cut it anymore, the stone, which was not big to begin with, was only as small as an egg.
She could already feel that the jade was not far away, and the remaining area was too small to cut anymore. She could only change tools and rub it bit by bit.
When Qin Yian rubbed out a different color, Qin Zhengyi was even more excited than her. His eyes almost popped out of his head. He stood up and looked closer, praising her.
"Mom! Granddaughter, you are really a genius. You guessed it right on such a broken stone with 60% cracks. There is actually something inside. It looks good, a bit like black jade. Keep rubbing and see what it is. It's really amazing. Grandpa declares that you have become a master!"
"I'm not as good as you, Grandpa. I still have a lot to learn. I need to continue to learn from you. I'm just lucky."
Qin Yian said as he wiped the surface with his hands: "Grandpa, please move over a little and block my light. I'll continue to look. There's still so much area that hasn't been wiped."
Qin Zhengyi realized later that he had blocked the light of his eldest granddaughter. He quickly moved away and sat back in his original position: "Oh, right, right, you wipe it first, and I'll wipe the rest."
The old man was doing his work and occasionally glanced at Qin Yian.
In a blink of an eye, Qin Yian had wiped out all the jade on his hand and looked at it curiously under the light.
What kind of jade is this? It's all fake. It looks like a strange thing.
"Grandpa, what kind of jade is this? It doesn't look like black jade? Black jade is not a dark black color. Isn't black jade green to the point of being black? It's actually green, but the thing in my hand is not like this. It looks like a black coal ball."
Qin Zhengyi looked up immediately after hearing this. Oh my god, it really opened. The eldest granddaughter is still fast enough. The one in his hand hasn't been finished yet.
"It opened? Let me see, let me see."
Qin Yian handed this strange thing over. Qin Zhengyi put on his reading glasses and studied the jade carefully.
"It's really not black jadeite. Your piece is pure black. The color, density and glossiness don't look like black jadeite, let alone black chicken jadeite. It may be some mineral material."
Qin Yian was thoughtful. Judging from the excitement of the little thing on her neck, it might not be jadeite. Maybe it's just something it can absorb, a good treasure that can help it grow.
Qin Zhengyi thought his granddaughter was disappointed, so he patted her shoulder and comforted her: "It's okay. It doesn't matter if you don't get jadeite. It's normal that you can't get jadeite from such a broken stone. It's good to get a complete thing without cracks. Your level is very high now."
After that, Qin Zhengyi went to the next room and took out three books and brought them to Qin Yian.
"One is a book on gemstone identification, which contains all kinds of gemstones, one is a book on jadeite types and how to identify raw stones, and there is also a book on antique identification. You can take it home and read it if you are interested. Learning more will always be useful."
Qin Zhengyi was impressed by her personality charm after having a real contact with this granddaughter today. All elders like children who are smart and study hard, and he is no exception. He feels proud and happy to have such a granddaughter. The previous prejudices and barriers are gone.
Qin Yian can feel the change in the old man's attitude towards her, but she is not really sad, she is just thinking about the problem.
But the old man didn't think so. Seeing that she was still staring at the black stone in her hand in a daze for a long time, he thought that his granddaughter was so strong and had never suffered any setbacks since she came back. Now she must be very sad, but she didn't show it.
After being regarded as one of his own by the old man, Yu Shi was very good at comforting people. After giving her the book, he continued:
"You are already very smart. Don't be sad because of a small mistake. There is nothing good in that pile of scraps. It is normal to be empty. I am not laughing at you. Grandpa is the boss. All the raw stones here belong to you. Come down and solve them when you are free. Do whatever you want."
Well, since he said so, it is not impossible to pretend to be sad. She is also very happy to cooperate with the old man's brain.
Qin Yian sniffed immediately, wiped away two tears from her eyes, looked at the rough stones with a depressed mood, and then raised a comforted smile on her face. She nodded and took the book from the old man's hand and held it in her own hand, raising her other hand to cheer herself up.
"Okay, thank you, grandpa, I will work hard, I'm not sad, no matter what it is, at least I opened so many good ones, which is a 99% success rate. Thank you again, grandpa, then I will accept these stones."
Qin Yian tried her best to hold back the joyful smile in her heart and tried to move her eyes away from the rough stones to avoid revealing her emotions too much and being discovered by the old man.
In her heart: Mom, I'm rich, so many rough stones are hers.
"Well, if you have time, come and dig stones more often. It can be regarded as accompanying your grandmother and me, an old man. The children in the family have grown up and gone out. Your sister-in-law has gone to play with your uncle. It's quite lonely. Fortunately, you come from time to time. Let's continue to wipe the previous ones. There are still so many."
Qin Zhengyi said with a lonely look.
It is indeed a bit lonely for an old man to live in such a big house. It takes some excitement to finish writing.
"Grandpa, I won't leave even if you chase me away. Don't worry, I will come to see you often. I will send you a gift tomorrow. If I don't come, he will accompany you. You can rest. I will wipe it. I am fast and it will be finished in a few strokes."
"Okay."
Qin Zhengyi didn't try to be strong. He was old and couldn't stand bending his body for a long time. He just sat and watched.
Qin Yian took the bag and squatted with her back to the old man. She happily began to put the opened jadeite on the ground into the bag. She
continued to work on the unfinished ones. Anyway, these were all used as food for the space, so there was no need to be too careful. She just did it casually, and the speed was super fast, faster than washing clothes. In half an hour, she wiped out all the remaining jadeite and stuffed it all into her bag. The bag was full, but there was still a small pile left.
Qin Yian patted the bag in her hand and smiled until her eyes narrowed into a line. She never thought that she would have the freedom of jadeite one day, a bag full of jadeite, and jadeite of good quality. She actually wanted to use it to feed the space as food.
She is here to live a life of spending money like water!
In the current situation, Qin Yian can even wake up laughing in his dreams.
