Famous Twin Mountains 163 Jade
"Li Shao, take the liberty of asking, what kind of antiques are you more interested in?" Wu Rui saw that Li Hao was in the morning, just like visiting the vegetable market, looking here and there, and couldn't see what he wanted to buy at all, so he couldn't help but say a few words, "I'll help you with your staff." ”
"Well...... To be honest, I don't know. Li Hao wouldn't be stupid enough to say that as long as it contains aura, any antique can do, "Well, look at the edge." ”
"Eye-edge?" Wu Rui couldn't help but clapped her palm, "Wonderful! Also, for people who are just starting out in collecting, the eye-edge is indeed the most important condition. ”
"Li Shao, do you want to play with it, or do you want to keep it at home. It's okay to say the size?" Liu Tong also said euphemistically.
"Haha, it is said that men don't like to go shopping," Li Hao squeezed his eyebrows at him, "This is reflected in my brother very thoroughly." ”
"Huh?
Seeing Liu Tong, whose expression was obviously sluggish, Wu Rui also joked on the side, "That's because he couldn't find fun in the process of shopping with the two of us." If we are shopping for guns and knives now, I guess Xiao Liu will not be able to take a step at this time. Haha......"
Liu Tong saw that the two had reached a united front, and he rolled his eyelids helplessly, not ready to say anything more.
"Li Shao, in fact, having said that, Xiao Liu's suggestion just now is also very pertinent. You can tell me a rough range, and we can help you find it. If you go around like this, it will not only waste your physical strength, but also waste time, and it is estimated that you will not be able to visit a few stores in two days. ”
"Well, you're right," Li Hao nodded, "The problem is, I didn't buy it for myself, but I'm going to give it to an elder." ”
"Elders, men and women, how old are they, what kind of occupation do they have? Or what hobbies does he usually have? I will help you analyze and analyze. ”
"Oh, he's a Taoist. What is often on the lips is something, for inaction, nothing, tasteless. I don't know what he likes," Li Hao rolled his eyes and remembered something, "By the way! I remember one time, I accidentally bought a few copper coins." The shopkeeper said that it was the King Kong money sword of Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain back then. He especially liked it and asked straight from me...... It's his birthday next month, so I want to ......"
"So that's the case," Wu Rui pondered seriously, "King Kong Qian Sword...... Taoist...... You'll probably like magic weapons, gourds, bracelets, seals, and the like...... Let me think about where it is......"
Although Li Hao just said that there was no such and such a bunch of words, Liu Tong did not understand a sentence. However, elders, Taoist priests, birthdays...... These keywords are connected together, and he also looks thoughtful, could it be that the Taoist priest Li Hao said in his mouth is the Venerable Qingyue? Could it be that next month is the birthday of the Venerable Qingyue? Well, it must be like this. No, I'll find a time to report to the old man in a while.
"Come to think of it, let's go directly to the Yafeng Antique Trading Center, there should be these things there. Moreover, not far from there, there is a Sanguan Temple with a lot of incense. You can also drop by and check it out. Wu Rui quickly thought of a place, raised his hand and looked at his watch, "It is said that the food in Sanguan Temple is very famous, and there is an endless stream of people who go there to eat every day. It's just the right time, so let's try it. ”
"Let's go, then. "Li Hao actually used his divine sense to sweep this piece a long time ago. No aura-filled objects were found. So, there's no need to stay here anymore.
......
"Li Shao, isn't that Sanguan the Taishang Laojun, the Jade Emperor, those immortals?" Liu Tong asked curiously while driving.
"It's not," there are memory beads left by Master Qingyue, these are really not a matter for Li Hao, he casually introduced them to Liu Tong, "In ancient times, our Huaxia Kingdom had the etiquette of sacrificing the sky, the earth, and the water. The Emperor of the Three Officials, which refers to the heavenly officials, the earth officials, and the water officials, is the earliest Taoist deity. It is also said in the Taoist scriptures that the heavenly officials bless, the earthly officials forgive their sins, and the water officials relieve misfortunes. ”
"Oh......" Liu Tong replied expressionlessly. It seemed clear that he didn't understand.
However, Wu Rui couldn't help but nodded, the more she looked at Li Hao, the more she liked it, and couldn't help but praise, "I can't see that Li Shao understands these things at such a young age." ”
"Where, I listened to my master. Li Hao said modestly.
Sure enough, Liu Tong thought secretly in his heart.
After the three of them arrived at the Sanguan Temple, they found that the incense was really strong here, and the small place was full of people.
As soon as he entered, he hadn't walked a few steps when a few Taoist boys greeted him and politely said to the three of them, "Three laymen, please line up over there." ”
"Queue?" Wu Rui was a little surprised, "When did the meal in Sanguan Temple become so popular?
"Ahh After the Dao boys glanced at each other, they quickly turned sideways and moved out of the way, "I'm sorry, we were abrupt." We thought you were here to ask Feng Zhenren to approve the hexagram and test the characters. ”
......
After the three of them had eaten fasting, they walked around the temple casually.
When I passed by a small courtyard, I saw a long line of people inside. An old Taoist wearing a mixed yuan scarf, wearing a Tianxian cave robe, and holding a floating dust stalk, was sitting behind the Eight Immortals table. On the table of the Eight Immortals, there is a piece of yellow cloth, on which two lines of characters are embroidered with gold thread, the left side is embroidered with random inspection horses, and the right side is embroidered with five lines and four columns. In the center of the table, there is also a stove of sandalwood. Looking at it from afar, it has a little bit of a fairy wind bone.
At this time, Lao Dao was talking about something, and the middle-aged woman sitting in front of the table asked a few more questions with a reverent face, and then stood up contentedly. A little Taoist boy next to her immediately walked over, guided her to a merit box, and stuffed a thick red envelope into it.
After Liu Tong and Wu Rui glanced at each other, they quickly withdrew their gazes, obviously not interested.
Li Hao asked with some curiosity, "Brother Tong, Master Wu, do you two not believe this?"
Liu Tong just smiled and didn't speak. In his eyes, with the Venerable Qingyue in front of him, he naturally couldn't show any interest in the light of these unflowing rice grains!
"Hehe, I can't believe it or not. Fortune telling, to put it nicely, is a traditional folk culture in China. To put it mildly, it is just a means of making a living by fooling others into paying money with the help of clever psychological hints. It's hard to get into the hall of elegance, don't mention it. ”
"Phew, what are you talking nonsense here!" the people in line next to him immediately became unhappy. A young man jumped out and refuted loudly at the three of them, "Who here doesn't know that Feng Zhenren is the landed immortal of Sanguan Temple." His hexagram is the most effective!"
"yes, yes, this boy is right!"
"That's it, Feng Zhenren is a good hexagram!" Everyone cheered up this young man.
"I'm sorry, we're just chatting privately. I don't mean anything else, I'll leave right away!" Liu Tong hurriedly stepped forward and took two steps, blocking Wu Rui and Li Hao behind him. At the same time, he motioned with his eyes to the two of them to leave here quickly.
However, Li Hao was attracted by the person in front of him, a jade ring on his hand, he bypassed Liu Tong and said to the young man, "Mr. Ding Shaode, you are here to find Feng Zhenren and ask you about your future work, right?"
"You...... You...... Do you know me?" a look of doubt flashed in the man's eyes.
"I can help you. But how about you get something in exchange?"
"How are you going to help me?" The expression on Ding Shaode's face was complicated, and he obviously didn't believe it. Liu Tong and Wu Rui also looked at Li Hao in surprise.
"Why don't we talk in another place?" Li Hao smiled and made a suggestion, "Hehe, don't worry, it's at that drink stall at the entrance of the temple." It's only a few minutes, and I can't delay you coming back to line up. ”
The man glanced at the number 178 plate in his hand, then at the long line in front of him, and gritted his teeth, "Okay." ”
......
After Liu Tong saw Li Hao and Ding Shaode sitting down, he stepped forward and said, "Li Shao, why don't you talk to this Mr. Ding first, and Master Wu and I will go to the side for a while." ”
"No, no. Li Hao waved his hand, "Master Wu, I want to trouble you." ”
"Oh?" Wu Rui sat down curiously.
"You can test this Mr. Ding's knowledge of jade. After speaking, Li Hao looked at Liu Tong again, "Brother Tong, you go and order 4 drinks for us." ”
"Good. Liu Tong turned around and walked towards the stall owner.
Although Wu Rui didn't quite understand Li Hao's intention of arranging this, he still said to Ding Shaode according to his words, "Since this is the case, then you can first introduce the types of jade." ”
"No problem!" It can be seen that Ding Shaode's aura has changed all of a sudden. Some of the rickety bodies straightened up instantly, and his eyes also emitted a sparkling light, and he talked to the two of them with great confidence......
Ten minutes passed......
“...... Although the whiter the white jade, the better, but it can't be too white, too white will become 'dead white', white but not moist is not a good white jade. White jade must be moist, warm and fat white is the best white jade...... There is an old jargon in the jade industry, called one red, two yellow, three ink, and four mutton fat. Ruby is a gem in Hetian jade, but just like the dragon stone species in jadeite, it basically only exists in legends. It's rare to see ...... on the market."
At the beginning, Wu Rui didn't pay much attention to Ding Shaode, but he didn't want to disobey Li Hao's face. But when he heard half of it, his eyes lit up involuntarily. looked at Ding Shaode's gaze, and he also had a little more appreciation and attention.
"Mr. Ding, how about you take a look at the two pieces of jade in my hand?" As he spoke, Wu Rui took out two identical pieces of ink jade from his waist and placed them on the table.
Ding Shaode picked up the two pieces of jade, only looked at them for a few minutes, and then said directly, "There is a way, first check the cracks to prevent fatality, and the defects should be less work and fine." If the size does not match, it is difficult to make a deal, and there is a kind of colored square boutique. These two pieces of black jade, although on the surface they look like pure lacquer. But the piece on the left is obviously much softer and more uniform to the touch, and the texture is dense and delicate, tough, the surface is moist and smooth, basically no locks, no cracks, no impurities, and you can know that it is an old jade at a glance. It is suitable for carving human figures. The estimated market value should be around 500,000...... The piece on the right is too inferior, the jade is hard and brittle, the appearance is bright, it should be a piece of black jasper, and the estimated market value is about 50,000 yuan. ”
"What a piece of jade!" Wu Rui muttered subconsciously. He forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, "Dare to ask Mr. Ding, where is your high school now?"
When Ding Shaode heard this, he lowered his head, "That...... I'm still looking. ”
Wu Rui saw Li on the side laughing and silent, and finally understood what he meant. So, he asked directly, "My company lacks a manager of the jade department, if you are willing to go, I will give you a salary of 8,000 yuan a month, how about it?"
"8,000 yuan?" Ding Shaode was so frightened that he stood up directly, and stammered a little, "No, no, no, it's too ...... Too much. ”
"Not much! You're definitely worth the price. ”
Ding Shaode's face turned red with excitement, "Excuse me, who are you?
Wu Rui took out his business card from his pocket and handed it to him.
The design of the business card is very meaningful, with ink and landscape as the base, a column of cursive, written, Tianqingzhai, Wurui. On the back is his mobile phone number.
Ding Shaode put his hand on his clothes and wiped it several times before carefully taking the business card. After looking at it for a long time, he looked up and asked with surprise in his eyes, "Are you beef, Mr. Niu?"
"Poof!" Liu Tong directly sprayed the drink on the ground.
