The next day was the day of this gemstones carving competition.Irving also attached great importance to this and passed by it a long time ago.Yada also arrived very early. Irving waved to him from a distance after seeing him, "Brother Yada, good morning." Yada felt that the behavior of a grown man in his twenties waving when meeting was a bit childish. He couldn't act like Irving.However, when Irving approached, he still smiled warmly at him, then walked up to him and said, "Your name is Irving, right?""Yes." Irving nodded."Irving?" Someone suddenly muttered, then looked back at Irving, and then said doubtfully to the people around him, "I have heard of this person, not that he is a good gambler on stones, but he seems to be a You are an expert on ancient gemstones, so why are you still so young when you come here to learn gemstones carving again?""It must be the same name. I can't imagine how an ancient gemstones expert could be so young." The man's companion responded.After
At this time, Irving stood up from his seat, ready to test whether the electric drill in his hand could be used, and then inserted the polishing tip into the electric drill.Woohoo!The familiar sound of an electric drill disrupted the rhythm of everyone on the field.Even Mr. Zachary was frightened. He even wondered in his mind whether Irving did this on purpose to disrupt other people's design ideas.Even Mr. Zachary thought so, and Zadok and the other judges naturally guessed the same. Their faces became slightly unhappy, and they were all ready to criticize Irving for disturbing the examination room if they saw him sitting down and continuing to draw. order.Normally, it takes a newcomer 20 minutes to come up with an idea at the fastest, which means that the sound of some machines and carvings will usually be heard one after another 20 minutes after the game starts.Irving made his machine buzz so quickly that people would inevitably think he did it on purpose.What surprised them
"Okay, the competition is over. Whatever you want to do next, just go and do your own business. But if you have time, you must practice more on carving. If you encounter any problems, just come and ask me." Mr. Zachary said.Irving nodded and said thank you several times to Zachary.Mr. Zachary was also a very down-to-earth person, and he will not mince words when talking to Irving. "I don't like to talk nonsense. If I teach you gemstones carving, it is because you are a talented person."After the two separated, Mr. Zachary was still frightened. He didn't know that Irving had supernatural powers. He only felt that this young man's talent was too terrifying, almost to the point of being abnormal.After experiencing this competition, Irving also knew where he was lacking.Gemstones carving was not about gambling on stones or appreciating antiques. In addition to theoretical knowledge, gemstones carving required more hands-on skills. The saying that practice makes perfect was perfect fo
The next day everyone gathered on the highway again, and then drove together towards Phoenix.At noon, everyone had a light meal in the service area, and then after a short rest, we drove for several hours to Phoenix."I think everyone should spend more money to fly in the future. It won't save much money anyway." After Lindsey got off the car, he just wanted to lie in bed and not get up.In fact, they were not trying to save you money, but it was because it was much more convenient to drive here. After all, there would be some packing materials to take back after the event. If you fly, you would definitely not be able to check in as much packing materials, so you choose to do it yourself. drive.Not long after they arrived, Jillian rushed over and said, "You are finally here. I am almost bored to death by myself here."Jillian felt really bored after staying alone in Phoenix for so long. When he heard that they had arrived, he immediately handed over the company's affairs to his assi
The Phoenix public auction hasn't officially started yet, but it's already very lively outside."Let's go to Jewel Street for a walk!"Even if they are not in the gemstone industry, many people will go to Jewel Street when they come to Phoenix.The Jewel Street here was not just one street, it seems to be one connected to another, as if it never ends.There were also many stalls on Jewel Street with all kinds of things on them."What do you think of the things here?" Yasmin asked Irving.Irving looked at the stalls on both sides of the road and said with a smile, "The things in these stalls are either bought and sold by everyone to get a bargain, or they are just for newcomers to buy for fun. If you want better things, you must go to the store. "As soon as he finished speaking, a young man walked up to him carrying a tray and said, "Boss, these are all emeralds. Good stuff. Do you want to buy some?"Irving thought this man's accent was quite interesting and couldn't help but look at
Zadok's master was Mr. Lincolnton. Like Mr. Zachary, he is the top jade carver in America. He didn't expect that he would be here at this time. Irving said excitedly, "Okay, then I'll try to find it."Soon, Irving pointed to the jade sculpture of flying to the moon and asked, "Is this the piece?""How did you tell?" Zadok asked in surprise.The jade carving was placed in a relatively conspicuous position. He had seen it when he came here before but didn't notice it. Unexpectedly, Irving, a person who had just come into contact with jade carvings, could recognize it at a glance."I am now partly involved in the gemstones carving industry, and I have some understanding of these things. When your dad gave us a demonstration before, Mr. Zachary said that because Mr. Lincolnton's carvings pay more attention to meaning, I took a look. , so the style of this jade carving is more consistent." Irving explained.Seeing that Irving had found Mr. Lincolnton's things, Zhou dollar had no choice but
After saying goodbye to Zadok, everyone did not go to other stores.From the bottom of their hearts, they felt that Irving's luck was ridiculously good, but as Yasmin said, he was also capable. After all, only he could tell where Mr. Lincoln's works were.When Finnegan saw that everyone had just entered a store, he lost his vital enthusiasm and said immediately. "Looks like we should go..."Liam looked at him and said with understanding, "Then we'd better go..."Irving saw the expressions on their faces and immediately guessed what they wanted to do."Since everyone doesn't want to go shopping, why don't we go gambling on stones? I happen to have a boss I know nearby. How about we all go and have a look?" Boss Lindsey, who rarely talks, suggested.Everyone immediately thought of one place. Originally, they came here to bet on stones, and of course they were most interested in this."Okay, then Boss Lindsey will show us the way!"Recently, merchants have been bringing gambling material
After a while, Finnegan moved several pieces of gambling material to ask Irving.This kind of material was good, much better than the one in Jacksonville, but correspondingly, the price was also much more expensive, basically starting at several hundred thousand, so Finnegan was also more cautious, so he wanted Irving to help him give advice.Irving looked at the materials picked out below. The light in the warehouse was so dark that even his perspective was affected.He opened his eyes wide and stared for a while, then gently shook his head and said, "It's just so so."Hearing what he said, Finnegan felt a little disappointed.These few pieces were all materials that he thought were pretty good. Unexpectedly, Irving didn't like any of them, which made him somewhat doubtful of his ability.It's just that he was more willing to believe Irving than himself, and then he cheered up and went back to pick again.In fact, Irving didn't look carefully at the materials inside, but just took a
