Chapter 54: I'll Let You Appraise (Part 2)
Yang Yawei certainly couldn't have prepared in advance, the two things in his pocket were the two evenly textured blue sapphires that remained after being absorbed by the biological modification device last time. However, for some reason, after the biological modification device absorbed the energy inside, its structure seemed to have changed. Yang Yawei didn't understand it specifically, but it was absolutely more pure than the previous blue sapphire, just like crystal, without any impurities inside.
Although the color had faded to a pale blue, it seemed even more beautiful and perfect than before. Yang Yiwei didn't know if this thing could still be sold as jewelry, so during this time at Xing Meng, he made good relations with those jewelry appraisers and asked for their help to take a look.
Xing Meng in S city is also a leading jewelry store, and from Xing Meng's hardware facilities, it can be seen that the appraisers hired by Xing Meng are not mediocre. Yang Yawei is an employee of the jewelry store, so it doesn't cost much to ask them for help. The appraisers naturally wouldn't refuse, although they're not in the same department, but everyone is colleagues after all. However, several appraisers took a look and said that Yang Yawei's thing is just artificial crystal, not even a gemstone, let alone an artificial gemstone.
Yang Yawei didn't believe it, and entangled several appraisers in the laboratory to identify it by physical methods. The result came out, and the appraisers were extremely shocked. Because the laboratory results all showed that this was a pure natural gemstone! It should be a variety of sapphire, but the quality is too pure! Pure without any flaws! This is too rare!
Such a purely natural treasure, absolutely valuable, several appraisers naturally couldn't let it go, and they all advised Yang Yawei to sell these two things to Xingmeng. Yang Yawei disagreed, this thing is the leftover after being absorbed by the biological modification instrument, if sold, these appraisers would inevitably do experiments again, in case something wrong was found, it wouldn't be good.
Although it wasn't sold to Xing Meng, Yang Yiwei still got these appraisers to issue a certificate of authenticity for the Xing Meng Jewelry Lab. After all, this thing doesn't cost anything for their own people, it's just a stamp. Besides, Yang Yiwei indeed had natural blue sapphires in his hands, so these appraisers naturally didn't hold back.
Later, after coming back, Yang Yiwei directly stuffed the blue sapphire and appraisal document back into his pocket, it was the same clothes he wore that night when he stole the blue sapphire from the killer. Today, when going out, Yang Yiwei was too lazy to find clothes, so he just put on that piece of clothing, usually he wears Xing Meng's work uniform, this clothing is not dirty, didn't think it would be used here.
As soon as Zheng Zhi Xiong agreed, Yang Yi Wei immediately took out two evenly cut and exceptionally perfect blue sapphires from his pocket and handed them over. Zheng Zhi Xiong had thought that Yang Yi Wei was talking about another day, but he didn't expect Yang Yi Wei to take them out of his pocket right now. Zheng Zhi Xiong became alert at once. Just now, Yang Yi Wei's flattery had been pleasant to hear, but Zheng Zhi Xiong wasn't stupid - who would casually carry two precious stones in their pocket?
But Yang Yawei was pretending, this is obviously well-prepared. Zheng Zhi Xiong narrowed his eyes, but since he had already jumped into this pit, Zheng Zhi Xiong wasn't afraid either, because he was confident in his appraisal skills, he wasn't bragging, although he couldn't compare to some of the old appraisers in their own jewelry store, but the number of jade stones he had appraised was absolutely not small, besides, what kind of top-notch stuff could Yang Yawei take out with his outfit?
If it were really a jade worth tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, would Yang Yawei take it out from his pocket like taking out a glass ball? At least he should have a box for it. Several thoughts flashed through Zheng Zhi Xiong's mind, but he still smiled and took the gemstone handed over by Yang Yawei. As soon as he held it in his hand and looked at it against the light, Zheng Zhi Xiong was furious - this was obviously an artificial crystal! It was completely worthless, probably only a little more expensive than glass.
What is an insult to an appraiser? That's giving someone a fake item for appraisal! However, Zheng Zhi Xiong didn't show it on his face. Although he was furious and wanted to slap Yang Yi Wei to death, he still maintained his composure. But thinking again that Yang Yi Wei had come prepared, the words that were already on the tip of Zheng's tongue retreated back in, and he began to carefully appraise once more. Zheng didn't want to accidentally capsize in a ditch.
Jewels and jade, natural ones can't be perfect, but artificial ones can be extremely perfect, just like the crystal in hand. Any natural gemstone has its own natural texture, but the two gemstones in front of me have perfectly regular textures, which is a characteristic of artificial gemstones. All identification methods were used, and even Zheng Zhi Xiong took out a small, exquisite magnifying glass and a portable spectroscope from his pocket.
Yang Yawei slightly narrowed his eyes, this guy didn't seem to be bragging, and should be a real professional appraiser, with some skills in his hands. At least if he was just a rich kid, it would be impossible for him to carry these things around. However, Yang Yawei knew from the appraisers at Xingmeng Jewelry that this kind of portable simple appraisal equipment couldn't distinguish between them, otherwise they wouldn't have gone to the lab later to use professional instruments to identify them.
For ordinary people, it is impossible to distinguish between synthetic blue sapphire and natural blue sapphire with the naked eye. However, for an appraiser, of course, there's no problem. It's just that probably nobody would think that these two pieces in Yang Yawei's hands had been tampered with. After about ten or twenty minutes, Zheng Zhi Xiong finally put down the tools in his hand and handed the blue sapphire to Yang Yawei, saying with a hint of reserve: "Yang brother, if I may speak frankly, this should be just two pieces of synthetic blue sapphire. However, the quality is still good, and these two pieces of blue sapphire are probably worth several thousand yuan."
Yang Yawei originally took out these two things, and Lu still had a wisp of fantasy, hoping that Yang Yawei could stump Zheng Zhi Xiong. But who knew this guy actually took out two fakes? However, thinking carefully about it, if they were really all-natural, how could Yang Yawei possibly have them? His family was just an ordinary household, and even if they were passed down through the family, he wouldn't be able to bring them to school. So there's only one possibility left - this guy must have spent a lot of money buying them.
Thinking of this, Lu Lu couldn't help but want to slap this guy to death. It's not that he can't afford it, but isn't this just letting him get away with her stuff for nothing?
"Oh no, really? I thought these two things were natural blue sapphires." Yang Yiwei slapped his own forehead with some regret.
"Haha, Brother Yang, no need to be like this. If it's a purely natural blue sapphire, its value would really be very high, at least in the hundreds of millions. You know, such a purely natural blue sapphire is almost impossible to come by." Seeing Yang Yawei's expression, Zheng Zhi Xiong's heart also felt a bit more at ease, and he opened his mouth with a pretentious tone.
"Ah, damn it! So, the Xing Meng Jewelry Store is a scam? NND, I spent a lot of money to get it appraised, and they even gave me a certificate from their so-called "National First Laboratory", saying that this thing is a natural blue sapphire. But now it turns out to be fake! I'm going to wipe them out!" Yang Yiwei said loudly with a face full of "anger", while throwing another appraisal certificate from the Xing Meng laboratory onto the dinner table.
The whole room fell silent instantly. With a "pu" sound, Lu Lu, who had just been furious with Yang Yiwei, couldn't help but laugh out loud, but then she restrained herself halfway through the laughter. Xia Xuehan, sitting next to Lu Lu, almost lost it too, but fortunately, her calm nature helped her hold back the laughter, although the smile on her face was hard to conceal.
