Chapter 194 Un Plain on the Road

Speaking of Tengchong, anyone with common sense will naturally think of jade.

Tengchong County is located in the west of Yunnan Province, bordering Myanmar in the west. The border with Myanmar is about 148 kilometers long, from Tengchong to Myitkyina, the capital of Kachin State. Specific geographical advantages make it one of the birthplaces of industry and commerce in Yunnan Province. Since the Song and Yuan dynasties, it has been the gathering place of jewelry and jade, and the first time in jade processing. In the Qing Dynasty, the processing and sales of jadeite has been very prosperous. Now, the processing and trading of jadeite are unprecedentedly active, and commercial trade, tourism and other industries are increasingly prosperous. "Emerald City" is attracting merchants at home and abroad with a brand-new look. Now, Tengchong is one of the six counties directly under Yunnan. It will be the leader of Yunnan's open bridgehead strategy to South Asia and Southeast Asia, ushering in a new era of development.

So Tengchong is not only a good place for tourism, but also the most frequent gold mining place for jewelry merchants.

In addition, the jade public market is about to begin, so it has attracted more and more tourists and jewelers from all over the world. Now Tengchong has ushered in the most lively and prosperous time every year, and the merchants have made full strength to seize this business opportunity.

The "public plate" of jade wool is a grand event of jade wool trading, which is a unique and fair auction method. The public market usually lasts about ten days.

The Myanmar jade public market is like a "table competition" of jade merchants, which is a big competition of financial resources, eyesight and courage. Before the official public offer, all jade wool was numbered, indicating the number, weight and reserve price, but the reserve price is generally very low. All the wool is on public display for three days. The jade merchants observe all the exhibits one by one, select the wool they need, then evaluate the price, determine the best bid price, and put it into the bidding box. For the same material, due to the competition of many people and not knowing the bidding price of each other, that is, the secret auction method often used in the industry.

Therefore, the determination of the bid price is very subtle. If the price is high, you will lose money. If the price is low, you are afraid that others will buy it. In the public market, there are often cases where the price is lower by a few yuan or dozens of yuan and you lose millions of emerald wool that can earn. From the day after the official bid, the company and the winning price of each material will be officially announced one by one. The wool is transported by the winning bidder to the destination by a special company after payment.

Myanmar has strict management of emerald resources. Only through the "public market" can it be traded out of the country, and everything else is regarded as smuggling.

In fact, no matter how strict the government management is and how good the secret means are, there are still bad wools sneaking out of the market every year. As Tengchong near Myanmar, it is naturally a major trading place. The price of smuggled wool is much lower than the price on the public market, so there are many big jewelers in Fei every year. When Cuigong was on the market, he flew to Tengchong Ruili or Pingzhou Jieyang to see if there was a chance to buy the best jade.

And Daizhi will naturally not miss such an opportunity.

In fact, Shu Ya told herself about this about half a month ago. At that time, she had just established a relationship with Heliandong, and Heliandong was still in the hospital. Although she wanted to come, she still gave up for Heliandong. Who would have thought that it was her own wishful thinking from beginning to end...

Thinking of this, Dai Zhi took a deep breath and stopped thinking about the past. Fortunately, now she finally has time to rush. There are many authentic Burmese old pit glass jade. If she is lucky, she may be able to find the color she dreams of. Jade or bloody jade, after all, the opportunities here are far greater than before.

It's just that she came to Tengchong, but she didn't know how to start. The biggest market of jade wool has arrived, but where the market is, who to deal with, unfamiliar with the place, like headless flies.

There are many ways to gamble on stones. If no one brings it or doesn't matter, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy good jade.

When I was thinking about what to do next, in the bustling street, a crisp girl's voice suddenly came from the vendor who shouted at Myanmar's old pit glass emeralds -

"Boss, since you said this is Myanmar's old pit jade, how much does it cost?"

The sound was crisp and bright, not big or small, and it was instantly submerged on the bustling street, but many interested tourists stopped. Since they came to find the bustle, of course, they would not miss it.

Dai Zhi couldn't help but shift her eyes. Although she did not take the initiative to meddle in my own business, she was also curious about who would stand up. She was very interested in things related to jade.

Strictly speaking, the shops here are not shops, similar to street stalls. Several wooden shelves are placed on the roadside, and there are many jade devices with emerald signs on the shelves, which are dazzling.

And those jades must have bright lights on their heads. Under the light, the jade pieces are particularly beautiful.

Those jade emeralds emit a very dazzling transparent luster under the light and look very eye-catching. Guanyin statues, jade pendants, Ping An buckles, and all kinds of jadeite look very exquisite, and there are semi-finished products carved above the stall, as if to make the jade look more convincing.

usually distinguishes whether the quality of jade is advanced or inferior, generally by color, transparency, presence or absence of impurities, size, etc. After meeting these standards, it can be said to be an excellent quality.

According to this standard, looking around, all the jade on the jade stalls on this street basically meet the requirements, but will such high-end, expensive and precious emeralds really be all over the street? Even in Tengchong, the largest wool market, it is impossible to casually throw millions of millions of best jade on the ground.

These jade stalls cheat those tourists who don't understand jade at all and come to travel and just want to bring some souvenirs back as gifts. Those who really understand jade don't pay attention to it at all.

Looking at that girl, she is a girl about the same age as Dai Zhi. She is tall, but she has a boy's head very innovatively. Such an uncontrollable hairstyle must be nothing special on others, but she is very suitable for this girl. It is simple and neat. It can be seen that this woman's personality must also be very big. Lala's.

When the boss saw that the business seemed to come, he quickly greeted enthusiastically,

"Yo, this girl knows the goods. This Guanyin statue is an old pit jade in Myanmar, glass, and it is absolutely authentic! Girl, if you are sincere, you can sell it to you for 1,000 yuan, and you can't bargain!"

Can you sell it to Myanmar's old pit glass land for 1,000 yuan?

Dai Zhi couldn't help laughing in his heart. This obvious bragging doesn't need to use any power at all. As long as people with reason and common sense, they will recognize it.

She was a little curious. Her intuition told her that the girl didn't look like she really came to buy jade, and although she was wearing ordinary Han clothes, she looked like a minority, and many famous ethnic groups in Tengchong should be locals.

The woman asked in surprise, "Is it so cheap?"

"No, you can inquire. I am the cheapest place in the whole jade street, and it can be said that it is the cheapest jade store in Tengchong. I just want to make a small profit and make a living. Do you want it?"

The girl pretended to be considerated and asked,

"Boss, I'm a stranger. Since you said you are an old Burmese, I can't believe it casually, can I? Why don't you tell me how to distinguish the true and false of jade?

Dai Zhi stood aside and bent the corners of his mouth slightly. This woman was really a ghost. It seemed that she should be an snoy, at least half of it.

The boss didn't notice it at all. He took a Guanyin statue with a smile, raised it under the lamp, and let the light penetrate. The color was really blue and green. At this time, it was close to evening. At night, the faces of the people around the neighborhood were sprinkled with a layer of green light and shadow, which was very crystal clear.

The boss proudly said, "Look, jade, what you pay attention to is color and transparency. In professional terms, it is the water head. Look, how high the transparency of this jade is, like a mirror, it is definitely a good water head!"

When some people around him heard it and looked at it, they all nodded with great agreement, as if they wanted to buy it, but the woman asked for a moment and pretended to be curious.

"Boss, but why did I hear that jade is colorless under the lamp? I heard that any jewelry should not determine the quality of color under the lamp, especially jade?"

Dai Zhi couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing. She was right. The girl really knew jade, and there was indeed a saying in the industry that she didn't look at the color under the lamp. Because the color of jade, especially the color of emerald, such as flash gray, flash blue and oil blue, is much better than that in natural light. If you want to really identify the color of jade, you should be in natural light, not in the light. Under the light, you can only look at the cracks of the jade, the length of the water head, the degree of reflection or other characteristics!"

The boss was stunned and didn't expect that the little girl's film seemed to be an artist. Of course, he knew it in his heart that they were all made of machines, that is, all of them were fake.

These Dai Zhi naturally knew it. I still remember that at that time, Heliandong deliberately took the same jade to test himself. At that time, he hit the nail on the head, tried on each one, and gave evidence, but he didn't expect that Heliandong did those things to confess to himself...

Thinking of this, Dai Zhi's heart ached again. It seemed that no matter where he went, he still couldn't get rid of him. No matter what he did, he would think of things related to him.

Shaking his head and was about to leave, he didn't expect that the boss was ashamed and angry because he was exposed in public. Seeing that the other party was an out-of-town girl, he grabbed her hand fiercely and threatened,

"Bad girl, do you mean that I sold fake goods? I have been selling jade for so many years, and my reputation can't be ruined by you. You can either produce evidence to prove that my jadeite is fake or buy my jade!"

Dai Zhi couldn't help frowning. Isn't this forced to buy and sell? Although she doesn't want to cause trouble, she can't stand by when she sees a big man bullying a little girl.

But I didn't expect that she was about to take action when she heard a familiar voice -

"Boss, you are cheating consumers. That's not good."

When Dai Zhi heard this sound, he was immediately shocked.

Isn't this Shu Liluo...?
