Chapter 144 Jade Pillar
Zheng Zheng has been loose some time ago, so he developed the problem of sleeping lazy. Usually, Bai Xiaoxue gets up first, cleans up the storefront and makes breakfast or something, and then wakes up Zheng Zheng, who is lazy and sleeping. I don't know what's wrong today, Bai Xiaoxue shouted that Zheng Zheng got up much earlier than before.
"What's the matter......" Zheng Zheng, who hadn't woken up yet, was nested in the quilt, he looked at the time, and begged Bai Xiaoxue for mercy: "Sister, what time is it...... Can I squint a little longer?"
Bai Xiaoxue huffed: "No, get up quickly!"
Zheng Zheng rubbed his eyes, calmed down, and said, "What's the situation...... Cooking so early today?"
"Hmph!" Bai Xiaoxue wrinkled her little nose and snorted, jealous: "You still want to eat, hmph, I won't cook for you! You and the woman who came to the door, you two go to eat!"
After speaking, Bai Xiaoxue turned her head and left, looking like she was really moving.
Bai Xiaoxue's brainless words were said by Zheng Zheng, and all that bit of sleepiness disappeared without a trace. While waking up, he pondered, who could this so-called "woman who came to the door" be? Wang Zhao? Probably not, the girl who had just taken on the style of a queen should not play this kind of "surprise you" drama. Could it be the Song and Tang Dynasties? That's even more unremarkable...... It is estimated that her affairs in H City have not been dealt with yet, and she should not have time to come to Huayin City to talk to herself.
After thinking about the woman he knew, Zheng Zhengleng just didn't expect who this woman who made Bai Xiaoxue vinegar full of energy. But no matter who it is, Zheng Zheng knows that he has to explain to Bai Xiaoxue well, no matter what, Bai Xiaoxue is his real girlfriend, this kind of "woman comes to the door" thing is not explained to Bai Xiaoxue clearly, it will be a problem......
After washing, Zheng Zheng lit a cigarette and went downstairs, and when he came to the store, he was immediately happy: Bai Xiaoxue sat behind the counter with Xiaohuang in his arms, still angry, and his face was not very good-looking;
Although Bai Xiaoxue was very jealous, she still gave Xie Miao a cup of tea, which was in Xie Miao's hand at the moment. Zheng Zheng looked at the tea and nodded secretly: Although Bai Xiaoxue is a bit girly and jealous, she is still quite steady in her work, and she did not do anything rude with her own momentary anger.
Knowing that it was Xie Miao who came, it would be much easier to explain now, if it was really Wang Zhao or Song Tang who came, it would be a bit troublesome for Zheng Zheng to explain to Bai Xiaoxue.
"What's the matter? Is it a counterfeit money to collect your ring yesterday?" Zheng Zheng said with a smile as he walked down the stairs, and glanced at Bai Xiaoxue at the same time. When Bai Xiaoxue heard Zheng Zheng say this, her face suddenly improved, she subconsciously looked at Zheng Zheng, and knew that this was an embarrassment, but she was a little embarrassed when she looked at Zheng Zheng.
Zheng Zheng smiled, didn't say anything, walked straight to Xie Miao, pulled a chair and sat down, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry to snooze in the morning." β
"It's fine. Xie Miao smiled lightly, nodded, and then said, "I came to you today for something." β
Zheng Zheng nodded and said, "If it's okay, you won't comeβsay, what's wrong?"
said so, but Zheng Zheng was also wondering why Xie Miao came this time. Was it because after thinking about it all night that she had lied to her and wanted to buy the ring? If so, it would be interesting......
So Zheng Zheng had a faint smile on his face, waiting for Xie Miao to say what she meant.
Xie Miao was silent for a moment and said, "I thought about it all night, and I always felt that this matter was a little inappropriate. β
Zheng Zheng secretly said "here" in his heart, with a gentle smile on his face, but he began to sneer in his heart.
"The ring was handed down to me by my grandmother, and it means a lot to me, so I ......"
Xie Miao opened the satchel beside her, and Zheng Zheng almost guessed what she would do: take out the money and buy the ring back. This is also an excusable thing, and it is not easy to find people who believe in others casually......
But the next development of things made Zheng Zheng, who felt that he already knew what things were like, dumbfounded.
Xie Miao took out a palm-sized mahogany box, put it on the table, and said, "This is also a family heirloom in my family, and it has also been passed down from generation to generation." Although I heard my father say that this thing is very old, it has no relationship with me, and it is just something that my ancestors bought by accident. β
"I want to use this thing ......" Xie Miao opened the box, revealing the contents of it: "...... Swap that ring back. β
"Uh......"
Zheng Zheng couldn't react for a while, but after figuring out Xie Miao's intention, he immediately came back to his senses, and at the same time, his face was also hot. He cursed himself in his heart: "Look at your own dirty thoughts...... Do you think everybody is the kind of person who is snarky......?
After criticizing himself fiercely in his heart, Zheng Zheng nodded to Xie Miao with a smile and took the box.
Although it didn't matter what Xie Miao took out, as long as it didn't look so modern, Zheng Zheng would return the ring to her. Twenty-five thousand are all losses, are you still afraid of losing 30,000 yuan? This is actually not much difference for Zheng Zheng. But this should be seen or seen, even if it is a formality, you have to walk through this necessary cutscene.
In the box was a milky white jade pillar the length of an index finger, with a round body and a greasy-like glow, almost as thick as a ham sausage that could be bought for a dollar. There are a few winding lines on the jade pillar, almost two or three hairs thick, and you can't really see it if you don't look closely.
Zheng Zheng picked up the jade pillar and looked at it, but found that one end of the small jade pillar was engraved with complex lines, the lines were meandering, and it didn't look like a specific pattern, but it was definitely not naturally generated, each line was carved with heart, and there were deep and shallow with the knife, and it was not unintentional.
Zheng Zheng, who originally thought that this jade pillar was nothing unusual, pondered carefully for a while, put the jade pillar back in the box, and said to Xie Miao: "This pillar should be an accessory on something...... One end of this jade pillar should be pieced together with something else to form a pattern, otherwise it wouldn't be like this. β
A look of surprise flashed on Xie Miao's face, and she asked, "Pattern...... What pattern?" After speaking, her eyes were firmly fixed on Zheng Zheng, and there was some nervousness on her face.
Zheng Zheng's eyes were on the jade pillar, and he didn't observe Xie Miao's expression, and when he heard her ask Zheng Zheng, he spread his hands, and said helplessly: "It's hard to say, we don't understand the ideas of the ancients, who knows what he wants to use such a jade pillar." However, it can be seen that the owner of this jade pillar should also be rich to the point where he is afraid of burning his hands with money, and such a good jade was turned into such a single thing that looks of little ornamental significance. β
Seeing that Xie Miao seemed to be a little puzzled, Zheng Zheng smiled and took a glass of water. He took the jade pillar, immersed it in the clear water, and then lifted the jade pillar out of the clear water.
There are only some faint water marks on the jade pillar that has been passed through the water, which is also the result of the water in the winding lines around the jade pillar that is not easy to fall, except for these carved places, the other places of this jade pillar are not stained with a little water.
Zheng Zheng took the jade pillar and smiled at Xie Miao: "It doesn't get wet when it passes through the water, this is the most obvious characteristic of Hetian mutton fat jade." Because the whole body of mutton fat jade is delicate and oily, it is generally not stained with water. This jade pillar should have been left untouched for a while, but it is really rare to still have this kind of oil head. β
"If you exchange this jade pillar for that ring, you'll lose money. β
Zheng Zheng pushed the box to Xie Miao and said with a smile: "Now the price of one kilogram of Hetian sheep fat jade is about 300,000, and it is still uncarved and unprocessed." For example, this kind of pure mutton fat jade after processing, and there are some years, and the price is at least between 100,000 and 150,000. If you know which dynasty this is from, then the price will have to go up a lot. Antiques, antiques, ancient characters are still more important. β
Speaking of this, Zheng Zheng shook his head and laughed at himself: "I'm not good at it, I don't know which dynasty this is." You can take this to some of the experts and they should be able to name a similar vintage. β
In fact, if Zheng Zheng used a bronze balance, he would be completely clear about what age this jade pillar was and how much it was worth. However, the consumption of this treasure is very serious, and I didn't know that I could use it stupidly and boldly, but now that I know it, I can't do this kind of careless thing.
"If you want me to take this thing, I can give you a price of about 100,000 yuan. Frankly, this is the highest price I can give before a specific dynasty is identified. β
After Zheng Zheng finished speaking, seeing that Xie Miao didn't speak, he pondered in his heart, and said secretly: "Forget it, why bother so much?" Thinking of this, Zheng Zheng smiled and said: "If you really want the ring, then you can take the ring, the money is considered to be borrowed from me, and if you have money, you can pay it back." β
There is a way for good people to do it to the end, and send the Buddha to the west, anyway, they have lost 25,000, and it really doesn't make much difference if they lose a little bit or less. Besides, doing business is cash is king, if you really take this jade pillar, then you have to take out another 70,000, in contrast, it is better to lose the 5,000, save trouble.
If it was a general business, Zheng Zheng specified that he would not do this, but Zheng Zheng did not treat this matter as a business from the beginning, and after taking out the 30,000 yuan, he pondered how simple it would be, whether the money could be recovered Zheng Zheng really didn't care.
"You helped me yesterday but it was a charcoal in the snow, it doesn't matter if you have money or not, it's the most important thing to help me get through the difficulties. β
Xie Miao shook her head, returned the box to Zheng Zheng, and said, "I don't want money, even if you bought this jade pillar with me for 30,000 yuan, just give me the ring." β
