Chapter 157 Fang Yi's Craft (Part 2)

"I really don't believe it. Don't fool me..."

Yu Xuan glanced at Fang Yi. Although many people who play antiques know about gold and stone engravings, even if Yu Xuan carved his own seals, there are not many people who can make a name for themselves. As far as Yu Xuan knows, except for Mr. Wang Shixiang, he has never seen anyone who can become everyone in the carving industry. Please search and read the most complete novel!

"Wait, I'll find you a carving knife..." In the professional field, Yu Xuan is a very serious person. He doesn't allow anyone to cheat. He turned around and went to Gu Junshan. In such a place, it's probably not difficult to find a carving knife.

"Fang Yi, what's going on?" Seeing that Yu Xuan and Fang Yi seemed to be arguing something, Sun Lianda also came over.

"Teacher, I told Mr. Yu that he could carve, but he didn't believe it..." Fang Yi smiled and said the conversation he had just had with Yu Xuan.

"You really know how to carve?" Sun Lianda was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Although the carving industry did not look like painting, it required a deep foundation that took decades to build.

But those craftsmen who can be called masters are at least 40 years old. Fang Yi started learning in his mother's belly, which was only more than 20 years old, and his foundation was far from comparable to those masters.

"Teacher, I played with a knife when I was three years old. Just look back and carve something for you to see..."

Fang Yi smiled. He did not inject much effort into this industry as those master-level craftsmen, but Fang Yisheng has the ability to do it. Not to mention anything else, his hands are far superior to those so-called masters when dealing with some subtleties.

"Fang Yi, I've found the thing. Do you see if it's suitable?"

While Fang Yizheng was talking to the teacher, Yu Xuan walked back, holding a leather bag in his hand to make a tool kit, and said, "I asked for a piece of seed material from Mr. Gu. What objects can you carve?"

In this kind of jade trading place, I dare not say anything else. But there is definitely no shortage of calculating tools. Although the set of tools Yu Xuan is not used for carving, the carving knife inside can be used with you.

As for the seed material that Yu Xuan took, it was a piece of completely peeled material, with a net weight of about 70 or 80 grams, just a flashlight was used to fire the cotton wool inside, and the quality was not particularly good. According to the price after peeling, it costs about 20 or 30 yuan per gram, and the total should not exceed 2,000 yuan.

"Old Yu, is this a good piece of material or a normal material?"

Fang Yi took the piece of seed material and pretended to pass through the light with the flashlight. However, he had never played with jade before, so using his eyes to distinguish the quality of jade, which was a bit difficult for Fang Yi.

"Average seed material, you can do whatever you want..." Yu Xuan waved his hand casually. Two or three thousand yuan was nothing to him, and it didn't matter even if Fang Yi destroyed it and Yu Xuan, as he could educate him.

"Okay, I'll take a look first..." Fang Yi nodded calmly, and looked at the seed material that was big or small.

Carving jade is not an easy task. Even experienced master craftsmen often have to outline a general image on the jade. After removing the excess, and then carefully scribing the subtleties of the jade, this process often lasts for one or two weeks.

So Yu Xuan asked Fang Yi to carve on the spot, which was actually a difficult task for him. And when Fang Yi agreed, Yu Xuan had already asserted in his heart that Fang Yi was not a person with a professional background in this industry, and at best he was a craftsman in the martial arts world.

"Old Yu, you just asked me for tools and got another piece of jade. Could it be that Brother Fang was carved on the spot?" Just as Fang Yi frowned and thought, Gu Junshan and others also came over, but the accounts there had been settled.

"Hmm? Mr. Gu, how much does those materials cost in total?" After hearing Gu Junshan's words, Fang Yi suddenly raised his head. He remembered that he had a crush on a piece of materials and had not bought them.

"There are a little more than 1.21 million yuan in total. The fraction of it was wiped out by Director Lan, and 1.2 million yuan..." Gu Junshan said with a bitter face: "Dr Lan has caught all the goods I want to buy this time..."

"Don't complain. If Director Lan bought those mid- and low-end jades, you would probably cry?"

Yu Xuan knew so much about this industry. He knew that although merchants like Gu Junshan also took the high-end route, the largest shipment of mid- and low-end jadeware was still mid- and low-end jadeware. As far as Yu Xuan knew, among the total sales of 5 billion jadeware last year, mid- and low-end jadeware accounted for between 40 and 4.5 billion yuan.

According to Gu Junshan's strength, he should be able to account for about 10% of the national mid- and low-end jade market, which means he has sales of more than 400 million yuan every year, which is more than four times his high-end jade market, so the mid- and low-end market is his foundation.

However, it can also be seen from this that Yu Xuan has a nearly monopoly position in the high-end jade market in Jiangnan. With Jiangnan Province alone, he can occupy almost one-fifth of the national high-end jade market. The nickname of Jade King is worthy of his name.

"Hehe, Mr. Yu, you are wrong. I have been exploring the high-end jade market in the past few years..." Gu Junshan said with a smile: "Dr. Lan is my God of Wealth. Most of the good things I have in my hands are sold from her shopping mall..."

"Mr. Gu, I just took a fancy to a piece of material. I wonder how much it is worth?" Fang Yi put the piece of seed material in his hand on the table. For Fang Yi, compared to showing his carving technology, the piece of material he had just liked was undoubtedly more important.

"Hmm? Fang Yi, what material do you like? I'll pay the money together..." After hearing Fang Yi's words, Lan Lian hurriedly said.

"Dr. Lan, no, this is what I bought privately..." Fang Yi smiled and shook his head, walked to the middle of the pile of mountain materials, made a spitting sound from his mouth, and then picked up the stone.

"This material is not light, it should be sixty or seventy kilograms..." Fang Yi came to the middle of the venue with the raw stone in his arms and gently placed it on a floor scale.

"Hey, Brother Fang, what you said is really accurate. This piece of material is 65 kilograms, 130 kilograms..."

Gu Junshan pulled several weights on the floor scale, looked at the numbers on it, couldn't help but laugh, and said, "Brother, although this piece of material is heavy, the performance of the piece of material is also very average. Are you sure you want it?"

The raw stone that Fang Yi held was a typical mountain material. Judging from the window that was opened, it was not very oily. There was a local area and jade stone, so the quality was very average. If this thing was placed on Gu Junshan's hands, it would probably be broken down and made into some cheap bracelets and ornaments, and distributed to the second-level dealers for sale.

"Well, I just want this. I'm not as rich as Director Lan..." Fang Yiba couldn't help Gu Junshan looking down on this material. He said immediately: "I'll buy it and practice it. Mr. Gu wants to give me a little cheaper..."

"This material is not mine..." Gu Junshan smiled and shook his head, and said, "Old Zhao, how about it? I want to buy it, you give it a price?"

In addition to the old Liu just now, the raw stone merchant named Zhao. Both of them came from Xinjiang Province and were also famous jade raw materials merchants in Xinjiang Province.

"This piece of material is 1,510 kilograms..." Lao Zhao was a person who was not good at speaking. After quoting the price, his mouth closed tightly, not even saying a word.

"Brother Fang, 1,500, what do you think?" Gu Junshan knew that Lao Zhao was so angry that he said it was a bargain, so he looked at Fang Yi directly and stopped bargaining with Lao Zhao.

"Old Yu, what do you think?" Fang Yi couldn't even tell the quality of the jade, so he didn't know the price. He could only look at Yu Xuan with a helping look.

"One thousand five, the price is not high or low, it's almost the same..." Yu Xuan said, "The price of mountain materials is usually about 2,000 yuan per kilogram. This material is a little worse, and one thousand five is considered a fair price..."

"After, that's 1,500 yuan per kilogram, and 65 kilograms are 97,500 yuan, and the 100,000 yuan he has just enough.

"Remove the fraction and give it 97,000 yuan..." Seeing that Fang Yi had no bargaining and decided to buy it, Lao Zhao also showed a smile on his face, and he took the initiative to wipe Fang Yi out five hundred yuan.

"Can you swipe your card? I don't have that much cash..." Fang Yi took out his bank card.

"The bank has gotten off work now, so I can't transfer money?" Gu Junshan raised his wrist and looked at the following form. Before he knew it, they had been here for an hour or two. It was already past five o'clock in the afternoon.

"Mr. Fang, I'll pay for you first. You'll give me the money when you go back." Lan Lian signaled Song Qing to open the password box and took out a few stacks of money from it.

"Well, this is OK, Fang Yi, should you carve that piece of seed material for me?" Before Fang Yi could speak, Yu Xuan nodded and agreed to him. Compared with that piece of mountain material, Yu Xuan was undoubtedly more interested in Fang Yi's carving craftsmanship-
