21 The Magical Stone (Part II)

After staring at the stone for a while, he suddenly felt a wave of dizziness, as if a cool breeze had swept into his neckline, making him shiver all over his body as if he were taking a cold shower.

But when he looked away, the feeling was gone, and when he looked at the jade again, the dizziness returned.

This strange situation, Li Shan thought that it was produced by the reflection of the light, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

Li Shan also knows a little about jade, but there are many types of jade, and he doesn't know which one it belongs to.

Li Shan played with the jade in his hand, and he really couldn't put it down.

Glancing at the black lumps of coal that originally wrapped it, the contrast between these two things is so great that it can be described as heaven and earth.

Li Shan couldn't figure out why this jade was wrapped in the coal, which was beyond the scope of his knowledge.

In comparison, these coal blocks should be of little use, so Li Shan thought about disposing of them.

So, he picked up the coals, thinking that he could easily crumple them into a ball so that they could be cleaned up, but when he pinched them down with his hands, he felt something different.

You can clearly feel that these coals are not so soft, and it is obviously different from the feeling of kneading the dough just now, a bit like touching some kind of rubber, and there is some elasticity under the kneading.

After a while, the situation changed again, and the lump of coal seemed to be transforming into a process of hardening, albeit slowly, but Li Shan believed that the change would continue until it became as hard as it had been when it first came into contact.

These strange things happened one after another tonight, and these were obviously beyond Li Shan's understanding of the world.

The two things in front of me, one so beautiful, the other extremely ugly, such two contrasting things, can be fused together, this world is really wonderful.

It turned out that these two things, if you want to separate them, how can you not do it, but now you can easily separate them, what has changed in the middle?

Li Shan felt that his brain was a little insufficient.

He looked at the quilt and the plastic bag for packaging, the only thing that had changed was that they had been wrapped in the quilt and put into the plastic bag together.

I remember that I just stuffed it in and didn't vacuum the plastic bag. It must be that when my mother came in to clean up the house for herself, she vacuumed the plastic in order to save space in the cabinet.

So the lump of coal has gradually changed in a vacuum, and now it has changed back to its original hard state, because the environment in which it is currently located has changed, that is, it has changed in the air.

It must be so!

The more Li Shan thought about it, the more he felt right, and in order to verify this idea, he stuffed the hard coal into the plastic bag again, and stuffed some clothes into it, in order to increase the capacity inside, so as to avoid the plastic bag shrinking too much and breaking when the vacuum was pumped for a while.

After everything was ready, Li Shan took out the air extraction cylinder and began to pump out the air in the plastic bag, which was originally very large and was immediately compressed into a very solid body.

It may take some time to see what has changed, and wait two days to see the results.

He put the plastic bag back in the cupboard, covered it with a few more pieces of clothing, and was relieved to see that everything was fine.

At this time, only the little jade stone was left on the table.

For things like jade, Li Shan has always been very fond of it, so he wants to find a jade to wear on his body, and the jade in front of him is really suitable.

But Li Shan was worried about whether there was radiation in it, because this jade and the coal block felt a mysterious smell no matter how you looked at it. I don't know where this pale green jade came from, and I really don't dare to wear it casually.

I just happened to take turns off these days, and tomorrow I can go to the larger jade shop in the city to let people identify it, see what kind of treasure this is, and also test whether there is radiation in it, and generally large jade stores should have this kind of equipment.

Of course, if the price is right, you can sell this jade, and you can make a small profit, after all, your economy is very tight now.

After thinking about it for a while, he felt that there should be no problem here, so he began to wonder where to find such a jade shop.

In Li Shan's impression, it seems that the West Market Street in the south of the city is a flower and bird antique market.

Chang'an has been one of the world's nine states since ancient times, is a place with deep historical and cultural precipitation, especially the Han and Tang cultures have been deeply imprinted in this city, and the Han and Tang dynasties and even earlier cultural relics collections can be encountered here, which is also a place that Chang'an people are proud of. Perhaps because of this, collecting has become the joy of many Chang'an people's lives, and happiness and loss come and go one after another.

Xishi Street is the most concentrated and lively place in Chang'an City, and it is a good place for almost all collectors in this ancient city to hang out, and it is a place where opportunities and traps coexist, happiness and loss coexist.

In the beginning, the collection market was not as large as it is now, and most of the shops were operated in a small park next to it, but later the popularity of the outside market gradually improved, and now only a small number of stalls and shopkeepers are operating in the adjacent park, and it seems that the situation is not too good, so most of the shops inside have changed to sell fish, insects, flowers and birds.

There are many types of collectibles on the market, and it can be said that almost every conceivable collectible item is likely to be found here, and collectors will basically not leave empty-handed as long as they pay attention. Jade, bronze, coins, wood, porcelain, silverware, miscellaneous pieces, calligraphy and paintings, villain books...... There are too many types, but perhaps the most Chang'an-style collection is the artifacts of the Han and Tang Dynasties, which are very popular with local and foreign friends in Chang'an.

There are also many shops in the market, but there are not many that specialize in antiques and jade, and there are also some shops that are engaged in teahouses and coffee houses.

Like many collectibles markets in China, there are not too many tourists here at ordinary times, most of them are tourists from other places, but when it comes to weekends or holidays, it must be another bustling scene, most of the time it will be very crowded, on the one hand, many people have time to try their luck on weekends and holidays to see if they can find a satisfactory collection, on the other hand, many small traders in the surrounding areas also come to admire, a newspaper or a piece of flannel has also become a counter, put all kinds of old things in the four corners up, and then get a small stool to sit on, the business is openใ€‚

The next day, Li Shan took the bus unhurriedly to Xishi Street, only to see that on both sides of the street, all of them were scattered stalls, from old books and newspapers to coins, jade and bronzes, and with the antique buildings of the antique market, if you don't look at the clothes people wear, you think you have returned to ancient times.
