What Yu Yao suddenly thought of was that this person who hid a small jade piece was very cherished by him, but it was not necessarily that the small jade piece itself was precious!

It could also be his particular personal reason!

For example, the ancestral jade was lost, leaving only such a small piece, so he had a thought about this section and embedded copper on the rosewood paperweight.

If this kind of jade has only been made in small quantities as ordinary jade in history, and because it is very old, it has not been widely discovered now, it cannot be said that there is no such possibility.

Yu Yao took a deep breath, silently went to open the door of the store, opened it, stood on the inside of the door and lit another cigarette.

If that's the case, then I'm really tossing in vain! I spent a total of 40,000 yuan, the paperweight was pried, and the little jade man bought high, and there must be a part of the loss. Money is still secondary, and the key is that I have little interest in these two things.

But after smoking a cigarette, Yu Yao calmed down.

Because he had already thought of the worst outcome, he was relieved.

With this relief, my thinking was much smoother than before.

Analyze again.

Yu Yao finally believed that this worst-case outcome was indeed possible, but it was still not big!

The focus of his thinking was on the jade quality of this jade.

Compared with other unknown local jade species, the jade quality of this jade is far superior!

And in Yu Yao's personal opinion, its jade quality is Hetian jade, which can be compared with it, whether it is visual experience or hand feeling, it is stronger than most famous jade species!

The texture of this jade, Yu Yao feels a bit like a combination of blue and white pine in turquoise and Hetian jade. If you have to talk about the disadvantages, that is, the hardness is not too high, but this is only compared to Hetian jade, but it is already harder than turquoise.

The hardness is not high, which is a disadvantage and an advantage. For example, from the Warring States Period to the Western Han Dynasty, there were similar small jade people, and the carving of Hetian jade was worse - the harder it was, the more difficult it was to carve. The craftsmanship of this little jade figure is very simple, it is a Yin carved line, but it is very smooth, there is no wrong knife and drag knife, and it is also very expressive.

Such jade, before and after the Qin Dynasty, when jade was scarce, should not be regarded as ordinary jade. Even if it's short-lived.

Still have to check.

Wait until Yang Sihai has the news of the source of the red sandalwood paperweight, and then let Cai Pengxi take a look at this little jade man.

This process of thinking over and over seems to be very short, but when Yu Yao came back to his senses and looked at the time, he found that it was already more than two o'clock in the afternoon!

Chang Huanxi came in at ten o'clock in the morning, and it should have been less than eleven o'clock when he left.

Yu Yao himself didn't know why, so he suddenly grinned, turned around and walked back to the store.

Before he could sit down, he suddenly heard a voice outside the door:

"Gegujae, it doesn't seem to be the same as the other shops on the street. ”

Yu Yao turned around and saw a woman and an old man appear at the door, the door was open, and they hadn't come in yet.

Tan Xinning and Uncle Kuo.

"It's you, it turns out that you run an antique shop!" Tan Xinning saw Yu Yao's face, and stepped into the store.

A hint of complexity flashed on Uncle Kuo's face, but then he smiled at Yu Yao and followed.

"Why did you come here?" asked Yu Yao.

"Is there anyone who opens a store and talks to customers like this?" Tan Xinning looked at the shelves, "It's quite complete!"

Uncle Kuo explained, "Oh, we are also antique lovers, and this is the first time we have come to Jiangzhou. In the morning, I went to the Qixingqiao antique market, where I heard that there were antique shops on an old street near Binjiang Road, so I came to visit. ”

Yu Yao nodded, and turned to Tan Xinning and said, "Then you can take a look at it." ”

"Don't always be you, yours, my name is Tan Xinning, this you are called Uncle Kuo, what do you call the boss?" Tan Xinning walked to the counter while reporting to his home.

Yu Yao just wanted to respond, but Tan Xinning had already taken out a business card from the business card box on the counter, "Yu Yao, Boss Yu, fortunately." ”

"You're welcome, tell me what to see. Yu Yao said as he returned to the inside of the counter.

"Take this waist card first, I'll take a look!" Tan Xinning pointed to a bronze medal placed on the glass counter.

The people who came were all guests, and Yu Yao couldn't help it, so he took out a piece of flannel cloth and spread it on the counter, and took out this bronze medal and put it on.

The bronze medal is round, with a cloud head on it and a perforation.

On one side is the word "order", and on the other side is a few columns of small characters: Whoever meets a straight stayer, hang this card out, the four gates of the imperial city are not used, and the school captain.

"Ming Dynasty. Tan Xinning picked up the bronze medal and asked while looking at it.

"Yes, in the early days of the Ming Dynasty, the capital city of Nanjing, was used by the captain on duty in the imperial city. ”

"What's the price?"

"At least fifteen thousand, no need to cut it. ”

"The captain was a low-ranking officer of the Imperial Forest Army at that time, and this kind of bronze waist medal has been handed down a lot. You're too expensive. ”

"You get what you pay for. Most of the goods on the market are raw pit goods. And this piece is handed down, the pulp is crispy, and it is well preserved, and the words are good, which is not comparable to ordinary products. ”

"Of course I know it's not a pit. But at the Seven Star Bridge, I also saw a piece of the same condition, and I didn't ask for eight thousand. ”

"Huh. Yu Yao didn't say much, he had seen a lot of high-quality imitations, and the pulp was very authentic, with a wholesale price of 1,000.

"What do you mean?" Tan Xinning pinched the bronze medal and looked at him.

"It's nothing, I usually quote 20,000 yuan, and if you can take 15,000, you can take it, if you can't, just put it down. ”

"Hey, your boss is too dragged, can't his attitude be better?"

"Good attitude, what's the use of bad goods? I don't have any fakes here. ”

Tan Xinning's eyes rolled, and he stretched out his finger and pointed to a pastel flower and bird vase on the shelf, "What's the bottom of that piece?"

"Qianlong year. Yu Yao responded.

"And say there are no fakes?

Yu Yao turned around expressionlessly, picked up the pastel flower and bird vase from the shelf, and then put it on the counter, "Look carefully!"

"Do you still need to look at this carefully? Obviously it is not the Qianlong official kiln. Tan Xinning pursed her lips, but she still picked it up, and naturally turned over the bottom to look at the money first.

As a result, the following is a red model of the Qianlong year, but there is also a small label on the side, which reads: Republic of China imitation.

Uncle Kuo had been standing behind Tan Xinning's side, and cleared his throat at this time, "Xinning, this bronze waist card is indeed genuine, take it." ”

In his opinion, Yu Yao's vision is good, he is old and steady, and he is a local businessman. If you don't buy anything, if you offend someone, you may have unnecessary trouble.

Tan Xinning waved his hand, "I didn't like it!"

turned to Yu Yao and said, "You wrote the words 'Republic of China imitation'?"

"Hmm. ”

"That's a good word!"

"Miss Tan, if you just hang out, then take a look. If you're tired of shopping and want to rest, you can sit there. Yu Yao put away the bronze waist plate, put it back on the counter, and sat down on the chair instead.

Tan Xinning knocked on the counter, "The shelves are so big, can you accept things?"
