646 Chapter 646 intense competition (1)
Of course, even if Timothy Ruskin didn’t mention it, Gu Qingchen wouldn’t sell this jade right now. She was very clear about the value of this jade.
After all, this was the only jade in the world. When the time came, she would probably have to personally name this jade! To be able to personally name a jade, that would be recorded in the history books, at least in the history books of jade and jades.
In this way, the value of this piece of jade would become invisible and priceless.
“Everyone, if you really want to buy it and are interested, why don’t you go back tonight and prepare the funds before you come back tomorrow to buy it. You should know that you already have an advantage over the others and know this news in advance.”
Although the few experts felt that it was a pity that they were unable to get this piece of jade in the first place, Gu Qingchen’s words made sense. They were the ones who had obtained the first-hand information. Even if they were to sell the jade tomorrow, as long as they returned today and did their work well, they might be able to get the jade tomorrow.
In this way, they indeed had an advantage over those who didn’t know about the jade.
Thus, an expert immediately said, “Then… Ms. Gu, Can you keep your jade private for the time being? It can be considered as a reward for us to come over and appraise it.”
That’s right, if they wanted to find an expert to appraise the jade, they would need to pay a reward. When Douglas Rowell went to look for them just now, it was because he promised to give them a reward that they came over.
And now, they didn’t want Douglas Rowell’s reward anymore. Instead, they asked Gu Qingchen not to reveal the existence of this jade to anyone else.
How could gu qingchen not see through their thoughts? She smiled and nodded. “Okay, I can agree to it.”
When the experts heard this, they immediately beamed with joy. Their attitude towards Gu Qingchen, Douglas Lowell, and Timothy Ruskin was much better.
Timothy Ruskin looked at the experts, then looked at Gu Qingchen and asked, “Child prodigy, there are still a few pieces of raw stone (s) . Untie them too!”
Timothy Ruskin had been staring at the other raw stone (s) . To be honest, Gu Qingchen had opened two raw stone (s) in a row. The first one was old pit imperial green glass jade, and the second one was a rose-red jade that had never appeared before. To be honest, Timothy Ruskin was a little excited at the moment.
He really wanted to know if the jades that Gu Qingchen casually took could be used to solve the problem of the best jades?
When these experts heard that Gu Qingchen was going to take other raw stones, they initially wanted to go back and watch the process of solving the raw stone (s) . However, when they heard that Gu Qingchen was going to continue to solve the raw stone (s) , they thought about it and actually kept it.
After all, Gu Qingchen had just solved a rose-red, unique jadeite. They also wanted to see what the next few pieces of raw stone (s) that Gu Qingchen would solve would look like?
Gu Qingchen was not affected by these people. The presence or absence of these experts made no difference to Gu Qingchen.
Just like before, Gu Qingchen picked up a piece of raw stone (s) on the table. After feeling it with her hand, she handed it to Ding Hao. Ding Hao picked it up and looked at Gu Qingchen, asking, “How do you want to dissect this piece?”
Gu Qingchen thought for a moment before saying, “Don’t use a table grinder, just use your hand to Polish it!”
Because Gu Qingchen’s perception was increasing bit by bit, now basically, when she used her hand to feel the raw stone (s) , it was more powerful than before.
Previously, Gu Qingchen could only feel the quality of the raw stone (s) , but now she could even judge the size and position of the jade in the raw stone (s) from the strength of the feeling in her hand.
Although it was a little blurry, but generally speaking, it would not go wrong.
Ding Hao did not say anything and gave up using a table grinder and used manual grinding instead. Timothy Ruskin and Douglas Rowell were already used to Ding Hao asking Gu Qingchen before dissecting the stone. They were also used to Gu Qingchen instructing Ding Hao to dissect the stone.
But those experts had not seen it before and still felt that it was very strange. They even thought that Ding Hao was not professional enough and was a newbie, so he asked Gu Qingchen?
When Ding Hao began to cut the stone, they could see that Ding Hao was not a newbie, but an experienced veteran!
One had to know that some theories about jade and jadeite could be lied to, but this method of cutting raw stone (s) was definitely an accumulation of experience. It was impossible to fake it.
They did not expect that among Gu Qingchen’s group, only this unremarkable man knew so much about Jade.
Even if Gu Qingchen had solved a rose-red jade, these experts did not think that Gu Qingchen was an old hand and still treated Gu Qingchen as a newcomer.
They only thought that Gu Qingchen was very lucky to have solved a piece of such a shocking jade.
Because she had solved two pieces of raw stone (s) previously, it was very tiring to solve the raw stone. When Ding Hao solved the third piece of raw stone (s) , his speed obviously slowed down and was not as fast as before.
Gu Qingchen was not in a hurry and waited for Ding Hao to slowly solve it.
After about half an hour, Ding Hao finally opened a window!
“It’s Green.”
One of the experts suddenly exclaimed, as if he was a little excited. Gu Qingchen looked at the experts, as if they were a little excited.
Gu Qingchen could see that Timothy Ruskin and Douglas Rowell were also shocked, but they were not shocked because of the green.
They were shocked because Gu Qingchen had even solved these three pieces of jade, and the first two pieces were of such high quality. They were wondering if the third piece was another high-quality jade?
At this moment, the two of them no longer thought that Gu Qingchen had randomly picked these raw stone (s) .
Previously, they thought that Gu Qingchen was the lucky one. That was why the first piece of raw stone was able to solve the old pit imperial green glass jade. When the second piece was solved, because the Rose Red Jade was too shocking, they did not consider this question at all.
When the third piece was solved, Timothy Ruskin and Douglas Rowell were not calm anymore.
This was definitely not a coincidence!
The two of them looked at each other and understood what the other was thinking.
They had thought wrong before. They had really thought wrong.
They had always thought that Gu Qingchen had chosen the raw stone (s) randomly, but they had not expected that Gu Qingchen had not chosen it randomly at all!
But… what exactly did gu qingchen use to judge the quality of the raw stone (s) ?
Timothy Ruskin and Douglas Lowell were both very curious.
