The jade industry has always attracted the attention of many people, but not everyone can make a lot of money from it. Zhao Sheliang from Shaanxi, China has been working in this industry for more than ten years, in 2004 he encountered unprecedented difficulties.
At that time, not only did he not make any money in business, but he also suffered heavy losses. He was left with only a few worthless jade pendants that were difficult to sell at a good price. Facing the crisis, in order to save his business, Mr. Luong made a very important decision: go to La Bo Lac, Xinjiang to mine jade.
Many people were surprised, not understanding why he chose to go there. With his experience and deep understanding, he realized that most of the precious gems were created during the movement of the earth's crust. When this process occurs, magma will erupt and then solidify, crystallizing into intrusive rocks (Batholite). The part outside the edge of the intrusive rock has Pecmatite crystals. In which there are beautiful, large gemstone crystals.
To find high quality jade, one must go deep into the mountains, where the movement of the earth's crust occurs, and La Bo Lo is the place that can meet that demand.
After arriving in Xinjiang, Zhao Sheliang carefully screened and finally selected a mine that had been exploited before and signed a contract. In addition, he also hired a group of people and vehicles to start work.
Finally, after many days of effort, a glowing object was found. As soon as Zhao Sheliang and everyone else heard the news, they rushed to the scene to observe. It was a very large stone, emitting a green light. So the workers continued to dig deeper, very carefully until the sparkling stone was dug out. Through measurement, they estimated its mass to be up to 6 tons.
The world's largest and most beautiful night pearl was found in China.
Zhao Sheliang immediately had people polish and carve it meticulously. It took three years for the huge, bright night pearl to appear before everyone. Looking at this bright pearl, Zhao Sheliang was very happy.
Polishing not only takes a lot of effort, but also requires inviting the best craftsmen, spending a lot of time and money, especially for such a huge block of jade material, if not careful, mistakes can occur, damaging the value of the item.
A night pearl measuring 1.6 meters in diameter is extremely rare. After being appraised by experts, they estimated that such a giant night pearl is worth 2.6 billion yuan (equivalent to more than 8,000 billion VND). This amount of money is enough for him to pay for all investment costs, even if he spends it all his life.
However, because this pearl is so large and expensive, no one is willing to spend money to buy such an item, even daily maintenance becomes a problem.
To take advantage of the value of this treasure, Zhao Sheliang decided to open an exhibition in Wenchang City, Hainan Province, China. This method not only helped him become famous but also made money. At night, the light emitted from the night pearl can illuminate the surrounding area without the need for lights, so it is also considered a “street lamp”.
