There are dozens of raw stones of different sizes placed on the ground.
The big ones are about the size of basketballs, while the small ones are about the size of potatoes or even duck eggs. These materials are all blind materials, that is, they are all gambling materials without windows.
On the counter of the shop, there were seven or eight half-gambling chips with windows already opened, and several people were watching there with high-powered flashlights.
The prices of these blind materials are different, ranging from 41,000 yuan per kilogram to several thousand yuan per kilogram. As for the semi-gambling materials, the prices are much more expensive, and the cheapest one costs 91,000 yuan per kilogram...
The material marked with 41,000 kilograms is not much bigger than a coconut and looks to weigh about seven or eight kilograms. Many people are gathered around the material to discuss the price.
Next to this piece of material, there are three or four large pieces of covered materials, all priced at 30,000 yuan per kilogram.
Yang Jing was standing not far from the material that cost 40,000 yuan per kilogram, so he could vaguely hear words such as "Kandi" and "Laohoujiang", and guessed that the material should be an old pit material from the old field.
But it is hard to say, because there are two mining sites in Kandi, namely Laohoujiang and Xinhoujiang, where old pits and new pits coexist. If this material is really from Laohoujiang, then 40,000 yuan per kilogram is really not expensive at present.
Yang Jing has heard that the materials from old mines like Phakant, Namchi and Moshisar are now priced at one hundred thousand or even more than one hundred thousand per kilogram. For some materials with better performance, it is not an exaggeration to say that one kilogram can cost hundreds of thousands or even millions.
In the Myanmar public auctions in the past two years, a piece of 30-kilogram covered material was priced at six million...that's Euros!
In comparison, the materials here are too cheap.
As the saying goes, cheap goods are not good, so when Yang Jing looked at this piece of material, he always felt that this piece of material did not seem to be the material of the old Houjiang. Maybe the boss used the material of the new Houjiang to pretend to be...
Although Yang Jing didn't know much about gambling on stones, many things in the circle were common. Things like cheating were the norm in the industry. It would be rare if you didn't cheat!
Although he thought that the material was most likely the product of the shop owner's fraud, Yang Jing still moved closer, took a look at it first, and then stretched out his left hand to touch the material.
"Hmm, it feels a little bit cold. Could it be that there is something valuable in this material?" The slight coolness on his hand made Yang Jing happy.
But then Yang Jing realized that this kind of coldness was not like the natural treasure contained in the Duan inkstone that time. If the coldness contained in the Duan inkstone was as refreshing as drinking a cup of iced sour plum soup in the dog days of summer, then the coldness from this material was like touching a stone with bare hands in the coldest days of summer.
"Huh? Touching rocks with bare hands in winter? Damn, isn't he touching rocks with bare hands right now?"
After being stunned for a while, Yang Jing finally realized that the material he touched with his left hand - many people were arguing whether it was material from an old mine or a new mine, was actually just a big stone!
Nine times out of ten you lose when you gamble!
The meaning behind this old saying that has been passed down in China for thousands of years is that nine out of ten gambling games are scams!
It is said that the buyer is never as smart as the seller, and this also applies to the business of gambling on stones!
How can you, a gambler, outsmart the casino owner?
At this point, Yang Jing finally understood that most of the gambling on gemstones business was a scam!
Don't say the shop owner doesn't know where this 40,000-kg material came from. It would be strange if he didn't know!
Let's take a look at Baldy Zhao, who just made a fortune from gambling on stones. He is chatting animatedly with the shop owner. It is estimated that Baldy Zhao knows the tricks in this shop better than the shop owner.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is still unclear whether this store belongs to that store owner or this Baldy Zhao.
There is no one who is not wealthy when it comes to gambling on jade. Many jade shop owners in China are professional gamblers, but they never show off their talents. They even hire people to take care of their shops. The real shop owners are the ones who fight on the front line of gambling on jade. In the field of shops, the real bosses are always hidden behind the scenes.
Just like this Baoyuzhai, why is the most expensive material a big stone? Why can Zhao Tuzi use more than 400,000 yuan to make a jadeite worth more than 5 million yuan?
Do I need to say this out loud?
Baldy Zhao had already picked through this batch of jadeite raw stones more than once or twice, and even picked out the materials with windows, and then took the materials outside to "perform"!
What? You're asking how to act with the material of the window?
Damn, if you don’t even know this, then you should never play the game of gambling on stones. If you dare to play this, you will be 100% cheated!
Who says window material can't be used as blind material? Not to mention window material, even if it's clear material, we can make it into blind material for you!
How much does it cost to paste a stone skin, and how much work does it take! As long as we can solve a piece of "blind material" and increase its value, then we won't have to worry about selling the remaining materials in our store! At that time, we will dare to sell the new mine material that originally cost 2,000 yuan per kilogram as old mine material!
Anyway, this is a performance and we are not allowing you to see the material. Can you tell whether this material is window material or not?
As long as I perform well, and a piece of "covered material" worth about 400,000 yuan can eventually turn out to be a jadeite worth more than 5 million yuan, I won't worry about the gamblers who will flock to me after hearing the news!
If I don't perform like this, how can I sell this stone that costs 40,000 yuan per kilogram?
How can I sell these window materials that cost tens of thousands of yuan per kilogram?
What? You said I was cheating!
I just laughed. People in this line of work who don’t cheat others are called Bodhisattvas if you put it nicely, and they are called idiots if you put it bluntly!
If I don’t cheat you, how can I make money?
Do you think it's 20 years ago? Now, let alone playing with stones, even being an official is hard. If you're not careful, you'll be beaten like a tiger... Oh no, at best, we're being beaten like a fly...
Yang Jing's IQ is as high as 142! This is no joke. As long as he gets a little bit of exposure to the things here and thinks about it carefully, the real situation will be almost there.
Yang Jing could also figure it out. This kind of thing is probably not just done by one or two companies. It is estimated that eight out of ten companies are doing the same thing. Especially in small cities in the north...
There is no way, because all the people who love jade the most in the world are gathered in China!
Besides, the Chinese are very rich now, who else can they cheat if not you?
I'm selling stones and you're buying stones. If I don't cheat you, who else should I cheat?
