Chapter 143 The blue gem

Hao Huai looked at Chen Fangming and said freely and freely: "Chen Fangming, if you don't give up, you can continue. Anyway, I have time to wait for you."
"Hao Huai, don't be proud, this is just a knife."
Chen Fangming had a premonition, but he did not give up. Instead, he asked Liu Zi to continue to calcify the stone and cut the two and half of the separated stones into pieces, but the result was exactly the same as before, and there was no "chicken blood" he expected.
"No, I don't believe that this stone only has the oily amount of chicken blood outside, so continue to cut it."
Chen Fangming went crazy and it didn't matter if he lost money or something, but losing face in front of Xing Meiqi was something he could not accept, so he did not give up his last glimmer of hope. It was not until the stone was cut to the size of a small seal that he sat on the ground.
"Why is this happening? Why doesn't God help me?"
The winner has been decided. In fact, Hao Huai had already known this result well before, but it was not until this time that he realized that Xing Meiqi was still burying her head in her arms and not coming out.
"Manager Xing, the stone has been untied. Don't you want to take a look?"
Xing Meiqi covered her ears. The sound of the stone cutting machine just now made her a little annoyed. It was not until Hao Huai pulled his head away and slowly poked his head out. When he saw the gravel on the ground, his eyes immediately burst into laughter.
"Hao Huai, you won, you really won."
Xing Meiqi almost jumped up happily, and then she found that there were many people she knew around her, which made her hurry to straighten her clothes, and a hint of blush appeared on her face.
"Ahem..."
Xing Meiqi coughed, suppressed the excitement in her heart and whispered to Hao Huai: "Hao Huai, congratulations on your promotion to the appraisal department manager."
"There is this good thing!" Hao Huai was very happy. Not only did he successfully win two million Chen Fangming, but he also resolved the agreement with Zhen Xiaoren. He also became a department manager in the auction company. It was a good thing.
"Hao Huai, congratulations. My father just called me, I'll go there." After saying that, Xing Meiqi turned around happily, looked at Chen Fangming, and left with a swagger.
"General Manager Chen, thank you for your checks and official kiln porcelain. My store will open tomorrow. This is really a blessing for you."
"Hao Huai, don't be too happy too early. But I, Chen Fangming, can still afford to lose."
Chen Fangming felt angry when facing Hao Huai's sparseness, but then he stood up steadily and deliberately cheered up and showed an indifferent smile.
Hao Huaicai was too lazy to talk to Chen Fangming. He only understood one thing, that is, the most important thing in front of him. He knew the principle of eating food one bite at a time, but now that the successful opening of the store is what he cares most about.
Seeing that Hao Huai ignored him and had no face to stay here, Chen Fangming returned to the gambling stone platform in the hall and accepted the appointment ceremony of the company's board of directors, but his mood was naturally greatly affected.
Only Liu Zi was left in front of the street stall where Hao Huai was, but he looked embarrassed when he looked at the stones on the ground. Because the gambling stones that were almost as treasures were originally wanted to give to Hao Huai, but they were cut out like such a worthless thing.
"Brother Hao. I'm so sorry, I wanted to..."
"There's nothing to be sorry for. I've just seen the quality of the thing, so I'm so angry that Chen Fangming made him fool.
"Brother Hao, you are so amazing. This is the first time I have seen someone betting on stones like this, but how did you know that the stone cannot decompose chicken blood worth more than 100,000?"
Hao smiled wickedly. Of course, he would not tell Da Liuzi that it was the credit of the ring, so he just underestimated it as "good luck", but this made Da Liuzi feel that he was a truly hidden master of gambling stones.
Hao Huai called Li Dun'er and placed the previous large holly glaze bowl in front of him.
After Li Dun'er looked at the three exquisite pieces of Qing Dynasty official kiln porcelain in front of her, she suddenly showed surprise on her face and said with a big mouth: "Good guy, I'm really obsessed with you. Each item has at least 300,000 yuan. You're going to rob the museum."
Hao Huai told him about the matter under Li Dun'er's question, which made Li Dun'er laugh and said, "It's OK now, I'm worried about how to deal with that bastard Zhen Xiaoren."
After Li Dun'er finished speaking, she became a little woman and said to Hao Huai: "Old Huai, you are really great."
"Dedede, please don't do this, hurry up and get the things back. I'll go to Fei'er's school later." Hao Huai arranged for Li Dun'er to transport three pieces of porcelain back to the store. Before leaving, he did not forget to leave the bank card prepared in advance for Hao Huai.
"Brother Liu, this is a little bit of thought, don't think it's too little."
Hao Huai handed the bank card that Li Dun'er prepared in advance to Liu Zi. He thought that Hao Huai would definitely be useful in the future. After the last store incident, he understood the benefits of having more "friends".
"Brother Hao, what are you saying? I just gave a gift with a worthless stone. I am already in a heavy mood. You..."
Liu Zi always felt that the bloodstone incident was a little apologized to Hao Huai, but he paid for it. This really made him lose face.
"Brother Liu, you can't blame you for that stone. After all, no one knows the quality of the things. Moreover, you have treasured that blood stone for so many years. If it weren't for it, I wouldn't have the chance to present it to Chen Fangming and make money, everyone, hello guys..."
Hao Huai asked Liu Zi to accept the gambling stone no matter what, and then he was about to turn around and leave, but at this moment, the shadow also came over.
"Did you see it all?" Hao Huai asked.
Shadow nodded, but did not ask why Hao Huai had the courage to bet with Chen Fangming just now.
"Let's go, we will arrange the opening matter tomorrow." Hao Huai naturally didn't want to say anything, but was thinking about the opening ceremony of the new store tomorrow. That was what he cares most now. I think the antique shop is his biggest goal.
Hao Huai was sitting in a wheelchair, and the shadow pushed him towards the stairs. He happened to see a ritual that was being held by Chen Fangming.
He lifted Xing Meiqi and Dai Yaorao both were standing next to a man in his fifties. It seemed that the man should be Xing Meiqi's father, the chairman of the auction company.
Xing Meiqi saw Hao Huai and reached out to greet him. Dai Yaorao also threw her charming eyes at Hao Huai.
After Hao Huai waved with the two politely, with the help of the shadow, he came to the second floor to visit the jade shop. Because he wanted to go to the University of Geosciences to see Tang Feier in a while, he wanted to buy a gift.
"Shadow, tell me what you like, I'll give it to you."
Hao Huai and Shadow came to a small shop. It was clean and full of modern processed gems, which attracted women's attention, but Shadow didn't seem to be very interested in those shining things.
"This ring is pretty and should be suitable for Fei'er."
Hao Huai was attracted by a four-corner blue gem ring. The blue gem interface was like the color of the sea, and it seemed to have a faint golden color, just like sunlight shining on the sea. The blue gem was inlaid on the platinum ring, and these three small circles of diamonds were dotted around as a foil.
"Take me this ring and see."
At Hao Huai's request, the female clerk took out the ring and then introduced with a smile: "Hello sir, this is a 'Tanzan Blue' gem ring..."
After hearing the name, Hao Huai discovered that the blue gem was not the sapphire he thought, but a blue gem called "Tanzanite".
The origin of the Tanzania stone is because its origin is "Tanzania". So far, this "gem" has been discovered only in Tanzania, and it was discovered relatively late.
It is said that lightning ignited a prairie fire in Tanzania. The fire was mixed with other stones, and the earthy yellow ore turned into a blue gem.
The Marseille nomads who passed by cattle and collected this cute blue crystal. The news soon spread. Of course, the one who was most interested in this was jewelers from all over the world.
Tanzanite was finally recognized in 1967. Until 1969, a New York jewelry company named the gem after its production country and quickly introduced it to the international jewelry market.
The first to accept this gem was American, and North America is still the largest market for Tanzanite. Eighty percent of Tanzanite produced every year are sold to the United States, followed by Europe. There are also a small amount for sale in Hong Kong, and China is still relatively low in its understanding of it.
Tanzanite cannot be compared with ruby ​​and sapphire in terms of hardness, so some people think it is just a semi-precious stone, so its price is also lower than that of red sapphire, and it is easier to process due to its low hardness. It can be cut into various shapes and is large in size, so the jewelry made is particularly eye-catching and is loved by American and European ladies.
When talking about the difference, we should naturally talk about the similarities between Tanzanite and sapphire. The biggest similarity between the two lies in the color of indigo. Of course, there are also some differences in the colors. The indigo of gem-level Tanzanite is bright and uniform, and there is no ribbon or growth line to see, and there are obvious multicolors. From different directions, there are three colors of purple, green and blue, and purple colors can be seen in a certain direction.
Tanzanite also has many imitations, but the most well-known one is synthetic forsteril, which is made by Russians. Some merchants once called it "synthetic tanzanite". Laboratory synthesized forsterilite usually has a crystal structure and chemical composition similar to olivine. Chemical analysis shows that there are elements such as iron, vanadium, and cobalt, which can make it look blue-purple.
