Chapter 248 Chapter 248 Stone Cutting by Four People

Together with Uncle Zhou, Jia Sidao, Ah San, and Ali, a total of four people, after closing the 'Zhou Ji', went to the factory in the east of the city!At this time, Jia Sidao discovered that even Uncle Zhou had his own car, and it was the less obvious and ostentatious 'Shanghai Volkswagen'! As for A Li, according to Uncle Zhou's intention, she naturally continued to look after the store at 'Zhou Ji'.After all, it's Saturday.Even the people on the antique street store front were a little quieter than the antique street stalls, but compared to usual, it was the busiest time.However, when Ali said that it was rare to see a big scene of cutting stones, everyone was happy to let her go along with her.

'Zhou Ji' is opening an antique shop here, not other stores, isn't it? "Xiao Jia, how many pieces of rough jadeite can we cut today?" Ah San asked excitedly when she was still sitting in the car. "What do you think?" Jia Sidao smiled lightly. "It should be possible to cut a few more pieces. Ten yuan, no, at least twenty yuan...there are quite a lot of emerald wool over there..." However, Ah San himself felt that what he said was a bit taken for granted. That's right, the voice of that voice is getting softer and softer, and in the end, almost no one can hear what he said.Jia Sidao immediately rolled his eyes at Ah San!

Ali, who was sitting in the passenger seat, also turned her head at this moment, gave Ah San an angry look, and said, "Ah San, you think cutting stones is cutting tofu. Ten or twenty yuan Woolen cloth." Even Uncle Zhou, who was driving the car, smiled "hehe".For a while, it made Ah San feel a little embarrassed, and she couldn't help making excuses to everyone: "I'm afraid that everyone will be too nervous before cutting stones, so I need to adjust the atmosphere." As for whether he really wants to adjust everyone's emotions, or whether it's just that Ah San is nervous, that's self-evident.Jia Sidao looked at Ah San with a smile.But he sighed slightly in his heart!Perhaps Jia Sidao has experienced many stone-cutting scenes, and even in Guangdong, he has seen tens of millions of rough jade stones being unthrown.

With a wider horizon, the anticipation in my heart for cutting stones is naturally not as eager as Ah San. You must know that a few months ago, Jia Sidao didn't say that he participated in the stone-cutting of jade, even when faced with some ordinary antiques, he was quite afraid to start.At this moment, looking at Ah San was a little nervous, which naturally made Jia Sidao sigh unceasingly.Does it mean that as wide as your mind is, so is your stage? If it is said that Jia Sidao is still somewhat nervous at this moment, it is only because these rough jadeites belong to Jia Sidao himself!

... On the east side of the urban area, even if Uncle Zhou himself is not around, there are still many workers operating. When the four of Jia Sidao arrived, they could clearly see that the workers in the factory were banging on the stones, some were peeling, some were cutting, and some were carving. , Jia Sidao took a little look at it. There were quite a few people, more than a dozen, and the whole factory felt quite lively. As for the rough jadeite that Jia Sidao brought back from gambling in Pingzhou, they were all placed in the corner at the end of the workshop. Jia Sidao naturally followed Uncle Zhou and walked over slowly. When he met the workers, Uncle Zhou would greet them with a smile.However, Ah San and Ali, at this moment, were a little anxious to take a few steps first, and rushed to the place where the rough jadeite was placed.There is one person who picks out a piece of rough emerald first, and compares their plans with their own eyesight!

On Jia Sidao's face, there was a slight smile. Uncle Zhou Fugui glanced at Jia Sidao in surprise, and sighed: "It seems that we should go out and venture out. The experience gained is indeed training people. I can still clearly remember that Xiao Jia, your first time here When I gambled in the shop, I was so nervous and apprehensive. You see, it’s better now, it’s like a completely different person.” "Hehe, Uncle Zhou, I'm not as good as you said. In fact, I'm also very nervous." Jia Sidao said, "However, because when we were in the car, we agreed that one person will go first. Choose a piece and cut it open to see who has the best luck, I just feel more confident that I can win."

"Hehe, that's true." Uncle Zhou smiled 'hehe', "Who made you bet on this rough jadeite?" Since the jadeite wool was originally owned by Jia Sidao, it is normal for Jia Sidao to be able to know it well.If not, what did Jia Sidao still buy these rough jadeites for? "By the way, Xiao Jia, what's your plan for the future after you got so much jade material at once?" Uncle Zhou turned his head and asked, "If we plan to do what we did last time, our 'Zhou Ji' won't be able to eat so much." Besides, there might not be such a big market in Linhai as a whole."

"This is natural." Jia Sidao nodded and said!Not to mention Linhai, if Jia Sidao's subsequent two batches of jadeite wool arrive one after another, even in the entire Zhejiang area, it can be considered a relatively large quantity. It is not a jadeite store that can sell them out in a short time. of.However, Jia Sidao was not in a hurry to sell his own rough jadeite. In the field of jadeite wool, Jia Sidao now is no less ignorant than before.The current Jia Sidao can always feel that he should have a farther vision than people like Uncle Zhou and Ah San. Even if it is this batch of jadeite material, if you don't sell a piece of it, if you put it in your hand, if you store it for three to five years, the value can double.You must know that the market price of jewelry in the jade industry has been rising all the way, especially after the new century, almost every four or five years, its value can double!

And in high-grade jadeite, this kind of pure profit is even more obvious!Anyone who can touch this industry can almost feel it deeply.It is nothing more than hoarding jadeite materials, as well as high-end top-quality jadeite. In terms of capital turnover, not everyone can do it. Because Jia Sidao did not disclose the amount of liquid funds on hand to Uncle Zhou, Uncle Zhou must have such worries at the moment. Of course, even so, Jia Sidao would not blew up his huge wealth. Instead, he followed Uncle Zhou's words and said inquiringly: "However, Uncle Zhou, this jadeite wool, as long as it can cut the best jadeite , still has a high collection value. I have borrowed a master engraver from a friend in Guangdong, and the craftsmanship is definitely nothing to say. I am going to let him carve a small amount of jade ornaments first. I need to trouble you, Uncle Zhou."

"Oh, you mean to sell the finished product in our 'Zhou Ji'?" Zhou Fugui quickly understood Jia Sidao's plan.In this way, although the funds will not be withdrawn very quickly, it is better than patronizing the collection of jadeite materials, right? There is a huge difference in profit between selling jadeite jewelry and jadeite material. "Yeah, I don't have anything to sell myself. Of course, I have to trouble you, Uncle Zhou." Jia Sidao said with a smile, "When the time comes, just follow the rules and get paid." Jia Sidao, but I know that in the shops on the Antique Street, there are actually quite a few things that are put there for sale by others.As long as the price is higher than the owner's heart, the antique shop will take a certain percentage of the profit from selling the item.This is not a rare thing. "By the way, Uncle Zhou, I'm also going to do online shopping on the Internet and post some pictures of finished jadeite products. What do you think?"

"Well, I, an old guy, don't know about it." Uncle Zhou was relieved, "Why don't you ask Ali to ask, anyway, surfing the Internet is something you young people like. But, Xiao Jia Ah, I personally think that if it is ordinary jade jewelry, the online transaction is naturally nothing, but if it is those mid-to-high-end jadeite, the online transaction is still a bit uneasy...” While talking, Jia Sidao and Uncle Zhou had already walked to the edge of the emerald wool pile. At this time, Ah San and Ali naturally picked left and right. Their actions were like looking for their favorite rough jadeite in the jade wool market.For a while, Jia Sidao felt that he was like a stall owner of jade wool.Looking at the actions of Ah San and Ali, I guessed in my heart which one of them they would choose. Seeing Jia Sidao staring blankly at the rough jadeite on the ground, Uncle Zhou thought Jia Sidao was thinking something, so he explained, "Xiao Jia, don't just look at things like this." However, the law and order around the factory is not bad, and there are people guarding the factory at night. There is no need to worry about safety." "Hehe, Uncle Zhou, I am absolutely assured of the safety issues here." Jia Sidao said, "Otherwise, you wouldn't be piling up so many materials here, would you?" Although speaking, Uncle Zhou's stone materials include nephrite, chicken blood stone, Qingtian stone, etc., but in terms of price, they are still not as good as Jia Sidao's jadeite rough stones.However, since even Uncle Zhou has the courage to put things here, what else does Jia Sidao have to worry about? The momentary distraction just now was nothing more than re-seeing the rough emerald stones in front of Ao. Jia Sidao was recalling the impression of the supernatural perception of these rough emerald stones in Pingzhou. If not, when cutting stones later, if a lot of good jadeite materials are cut out continuously, it will inevitably make Uncle Zhou, Ah San, and Ali think too much.Jia Sidao didn't want any accidents, it's better to be careful. Hence, when seeing Ah San and Ali, and occasionally touching those rough jadeites that Jia Sidao thought contained good jadeite material inside, Jia Sidao's heart would always involuntarily tug. "By the way, Uncle Zhou, why don't we hurry up and choose a piece?" Jia Sidao suggested in order to hide his emotions, "If not, the two of them might really take the lead in making good materials. It's time." "Xiao Jia, you are not being kind." After hearing Jia Sidao's words, Ah San said, "Uncle Zhou's eyesight is naturally better than ours, let alone yours. Yes. If you come here to compete with us now, wouldn’t we be doomed? So,..." Ah San paused, and said boldly, "Let’s wait for Ali and I to make a choice. Let’s choose later.” As he said that, regardless of whether Jia Sidao and Uncle Zhou agreed or disagreed, he continued to search. On the contrary, Ali, at this moment, patted the rough jadeite in front of her, and said, "Ah San, are you alright? I've made a decision, this is it." After finishing speaking, she glanced at Jia proudly. In the direction where Sidao and Uncle Zhou stood, it seemed that she was full of confidence in the rough jadeite she had chosen! Jia Sidao secretly laughed! Because it was agreed in advance that the objects everyone selected were all rough jadeites that Jia Sidao selected from the gambling stone market in Pingzhou.Those rough emeralds that Jia Sidao and Wang Biao gambled from Lao Tang's house were not counted in it. Therefore, Ah San checked it at a very fast speed. Jia Sidao and Uncle Zhou looked at each other, and they really just stood there, watching Ah San's choice.Xu Shi noticed the eyes of Jia Sidao and Uncle Zhou, and Ah San didn't hesitate for too long, so she immediately identified one of them and carried it out from the pile of rough jadeite. Only then did Jia Sidao and Uncle Zhou calmly stepped forward to check. In fact, Jia Sidao knew very well, not to mention Ali, Uncle Zhou and Ah San must have inspected these rough jadeites more than once before that, not to mention the quality of these rough jadeites. Not bad, just being able to get hold of so many rough jadeites at once is an opportunity they don't want to miss. Ah San's careful selection just now was just an act.When Ah San came into contact with these rough emerald stones, he must have already identified some of them in his heart, right?He was just thinking about which one to choose, which would give him a better chance of winning. Jia Sidao didn't have the same consideration as Ah San, so he chose a piece naturally.I didn't use supernatural perception to detect it, and I didn't choose the one that impressed me. I simply picked a piece and it was done. Uncle Zhou also seemed to be very fast, and within two minutes, he had chosen his target. For a moment, four rough emerald stones were placed in front of the four people's feet, and it was clear at a glance!
