Chapter 25: Betting on a Rise Again (1)
Soon, a clear three-dimensional picture appeared in Li Yang's mind, and most of the gambling stone materials in front of him were displayed in his mind, and everything inside was no longer a secret.
These gambling stone materials piled up together, and the three-dimensional picture opened to reveal everything in Li Yang's mind. This was the first time Li Yang had observed multiple gambling stones on such a large scale.
Even the gods couldn't cut through the gamble stone, now it's stark naked in Li Yang's mind, every internal thing of each gamble stone is seen clearly by Li Yang.
Inside these stones, most of them are off-white, a few have a bit of white jade color, and the arrangement is also very uneven, not to mention compactness. Such nephrite even if it's solved probably nobody will be interested.
Among them, some have a bit of green, but they contain many impurities and have no transparency. Even if they are dug out, they are not valuable. Such jadeite, even if it is solved, may also be used by counterfeiters to pass off as natural jadeite through acid washing and filling with resin, which is commonly known in the market as B-grade jadeite.
Li Yang shifted his body, observing all the gambling stones and wool materials. He couldn't help but shake his head. Among the 43 pieces, only three were semi-gambling wool materials, and their quality was so poor that it was unbearable to look at. The other 40 pieces were all gambling wool materials, and not a single one could enter Li Yang's eyes.
Seeing the performance of these jadeites, Li Yang's desire to gamble on stones had also faded a lot. There were two pieces that could be gambled on, but even if they rose, it would only become two or three thousand yuan at most. At this time, Li Yang really didn't have the interest to play such a gamble.
"Does Mr. Li look down on these?" Zhang Wei had been observing Li Yang's expression, and seeing that Li Yang had roughly glanced around before slightly furrowing his brow, he asked.
Putting away his special ability, Li Yang stood up and shook his head with a bitter smile: "Zhang Zong, to be honest, I'm really not very interested in these new scenes!"
"Old Zhang, aren't you ashamed? Still not taking out something real to show Li Younger Brother!" Wang Haomin chuckled and Li Yang looked at them in surprise.
Zhang Wei smiled and shook his head, saying to Li Yang: "Sorry Mr. Li, I thought you were interested in these new materials since you've been studying them all along. Since you're not interested in these, I have some old materials here that might be more to your liking, take a look!"
Simultaneously, Secretary Lin and Old Guo on the side also smiled and nodded in agreement. In fact, when Li Yang was studying these new materials just now, they were already very puzzled. Most of these were raw materials from Mu Luan Factory and 83 Factory, and it's harder to cut out good jadeite from here than winning a three-billion-dollar lottery prize.
Zhang Wei finished speaking and stood up, walking towards the corridor. Sima Lin, Wang Haomin, and Gu Lao followed him, with Li Yang trailing behind. In his mind, he was guessing what Zhang Wei had just said. According to Zhang Wei's words, it seemed that there were still some other gambling stones here.
The corridor was very short, from the yard you could see that there were two doors inside the corridor, one of which led to the front hall and the other was a security door. Zhang Wei took out the key and opened the thick security door.
This is a small room, very simple, with only two safes and a cabinet, apart from some simple wooden shelves.
On the wooden frame, there are blocks of uneven-sized jade stones, and on the ground, there is a large piece of jade stone over 1.5 meters high. These jade stones are much better in quality than those outside, and nearly half of them are semi-jade stones.
"This is all I have, some of which I bought a few years ago when the value of jade was not so high, and it has been kept until now. If Mr. Li is interested, I can let one go!"
Zhang Wei looked at the dozens of gambling stones in the room and said slowly, with a hint of pride and self-satisfaction on his face. These stones had cost him over 50 million yuan initially, but now they were worth at least 100 to 200 million yuan. Many people wanted to buy them all at once, but he refused, thinking that if he was short of stock in the future, he could sell some of the better ones himself. Even if he didn't sell them, they would appreciate in value over time. This was Zhang Wei's most proud investment in recent years.
"Hey, every time I come here I get jealous. I say Old Zhang, can't you just let us have some? What's the point of keeping it empty?"
Wang Haomin muttered a sentence under his breath, although the voice was small, but everyone in the house heard it. Wang Haomin's eyes turned red to Zhang Wei, these gamblers were not new for one or two days, every time they came here, they would say a few words, except for Li Yang, others had already gotten used to it.
"I've said it before, I only sell one piece per person. Since you've already bought yours, there's nothing more to say!" Zhang Wei smiled faintly, and if Li Yang weren't here, he wouldn't even bother explaining to him.
On the wooden frame where the gambling stones were placed, there were also several flashlights and magnifying glasses, the room was very dark, which was convenient for observing the wool.
Li Yang picked up a flashlight and shone it carefully on one of the pieces of wool, which was a piece of black sand wool. Under the light, some dark green mudstone could be seen on its surface. This is a typical old field Pa Gan field outlet material, generally such materials are also the most gambled wool, ten bets nine losses, but those that rise are easy to rise sharply, making people love and hate it at the same time.
Li Yang observed that this piece of black sand fur fabric is a whole raccoon dog fur, much better than the one he saw in Qingdao. This whole raccoon dog fur cost Zhang Wei 200,000 yuan back then, now it's probably worth at least 700,000 to 800,000 yuan.
After observing for a while, Li Yang put down the flashlight and went to look at another half-bet stone material next to it. This is also an old field stone material, with a yellow sandy shell that has been cut open halfway. From the cut surface, you can see a thick layer of yellow skin, and inside the yellow skin, there is a distinct red skin layer, which is due to secondary oxidation. This is also a prominent feature of old field jade stone materials.
"Mr. Li, which one do you like?"
Li Yang observed for over ten minutes before Zhang Wei smiled and asked a question. During this time, Gu Lao, Sima Lin, and Wang Haomin were not idle, as they had all seen these woolen goods many times before, but it seemed like they still hadn't seen enough.
"Not yet, Director Zhang, there are too many good things here, I'm dazzled by them. Can you give me some more time?"
Li Yang smiled wryly and shook his head, saying that these words were not just for show. He wished he could go back and bring all the books about jade gambling stones he had bought to compare and study with these gambling stone materials. Such a good learning opportunity was not easy to come by in everyday life.
"Go ahead and take a look!"
Zhang Wei let out a light laugh, with a hint of pride in his tone. Anyone who loves to gamble on stones and enters this treasure trove of his will have the same reaction. Every time he recalls his own boldness back then, Zhang Wei feels a sense of satisfaction. Not many people dared to invest like that in Mingyang at the time, but nationwide, there weren't few people investing in gambling stone materials either. These things had cost him quite some effort when he bought them back then.
These woolen goods Zhang Wei has already sold out or dissolved a part, the original cost has been recovered more than half, that is to say, most of the remaining ones have already made a profit, no wonder he would be so proud.
