Chapter 194: Chapter 196: Selection

The two were speaking softly; by now, many people had already started selecting stones.

Among these people were numerous jade gambling enthusiasts.

Many others hadn't started handling any stones, as they were mainly there to buy directly.

If someone cut a good stone and wanted to sell it, they would make an offer to purchase it.

Qin Hao then asked some basic questions, and Bai Jing answered each patiently.

Jade quality generally depends on its texture and color.

The finer and more transparent the texture, the higher the price.

Jade is classified from high to low quality based on its texture. The best grade is glass-type: fine, pure texture without flaws, with pure, bright, even color.

The so-called imperial green belongs to the top tier of this glass-type jade.

There're also ice type, water type, bean type, ice glutinous type, hibiscus type, horse tooth type, and so forth, with more than a dozen grades in total, quite comprehensive.
