Chapter 517: Buy, Buy, Buy

In the store of the Arts and Crafts Factory, an old technician surnamed Ding talked about Tengchong Jade, and his mouth was like a river, and he was gushing. Huo Ran Wen ?? ww?w?.r?a?n?w?e?na`com

Tengchong jade carving has a history of more than 400 years and enjoys a certain reputation in the national jade carving industry. The jade jade carving pattern was made according to the needs of the nobles of the imperial palace. Generally, it is dominated by auspiciousness, blessing and longevity, fortune and treasure, auspiciousness and evil spirits, and good meaning.

Tengchong's hundreds of years of jade carving history, there is no lack of everyone's works and rare treasures, these works except a small number of people's collection, because of Tengchong's modern wars, most of them have not been preserved.

After the liberation, the state established the Tengchong Arts and Crafts Factory, mainly engaged in jadeite carving. A group of young jade carving workers have grown up vigorously and created a number of treasures that are recognized in the world jade industry.

The jade carving "Sowing Spring" reflects a beautiful Dai girl wearing a hat and sowing seeds in the spring light; her affectionate eyes are full of longing and hope, and her national characteristics are strong and innovative.

"Dragon Horse", a glass dragon is like a divine horse, the clouds roll and wander in the sky, the technique has the Han style, and the local take the long of the Qing Dynasty craftsmanship, imitating the ancient but not the ancient.

"Laughing Lion Arhat" is a majestic Arhat, with strong arms holding a treasure gourd, surrounded by a Beijing ring, a lion on the shoulder smiling proudly of all things, for the Canaga Lama Miscellaneous Venerable, the work has far-reaching implications.

At the beginning of the Cultural Revolution, Tengchong Arts and Crafts Factory was smashed and robbed by the red generals and was forced to close its doors and stop production. It was re-put into production in 1973 at the end of the Cultural Revolution, mainly engaged in the processing of jadeite wool.

Wearing jade is linked to the capitalist way of life, and the original jewelry is not dared to be worn, and no one buys new accessories. Therefore, Tengchong jadeite is mainly carved with jade, and the remaining leftovers are made to make some suitable ornaments.

The works of jade carving have also changed from the theme of Fulu Shouju and Buddha God to the main landscape flowers, birds, insects and fish, with exquisite craftsmanship and novel meaning.

Yoyo knows very well that almost all the jade carving works of this period are treasures in later generations, and they are priceless and have become rare collections.

It took a whole day to walk around more than a dozen jade stores, and although they didn't just look at it, the salespeople in the stores didn't show disappointed expressions.

For a whole day, not only did I not see a single business transaction, but even the customers rarely saw it. In this regard, Master Ding said: "The jade business will not be open for half a year, and it will be open for a year." ”

You shopping pays special attention to the street layout of Tengyue, and she secretly compares the treasure address of the Japanese army sorted out by her brain with the address in reality. Fortunately, the Xinhua bookstore has a map of Tengchong County and a map of Tengyue's city. Yoyo bought five copies of each, one for each person.

After dinner, everyone gathered. My aunt first sighed: "On this day, I opened my eyes, everything here is a treasure, and any one can be used as a family heirloom."

However, the price is really high, and ordinary people can't afford it. It's not easy to come here, no matter how expensive it is, you have to buy a few pieces, leave some heirloom treasures for the old Han family, and let future generations remember their grandmother. ”

After saying that, she felt embarrassed and laughed, and everyone couldn't laugh.

Youyou asked incredulously: "Auntie, this is all the price of cabbage, is it still expensive?"

The jade of this era is really the price of cabbage. After a day, the most expensive jade carving works are only more than 8,000 yuan, which is the treasure of the town store of the arts and crafts factory.

The other works are basically under 2,000 yuan. In later generations, these works all started at tens of millions of yuan.

Those jewelry, the price is lower, a pair of imperial green glass bracelets, the price is 280 yuan, the ice bracelet is 100 yuan per pair, and the glutinous bracelet is as low as 20 yuan a pair.

I don't know what the reason is, the bracelets here are all at the standard price, and the worst quality is also glutinous.

Pendants, ring faces, jade pendants, safety buckles, hat flowers and other small objects, the price is lower, a glutinous kind of safety buckle, the price is only 2 yuan.

My aunt didn't think so: "What is the price of cabbage, a bicycle with a big golden deer costs up to 270 yuan on the black market, and a pair of bracelets here costs 280 yuan." I'm about to build three houses, isn't it expensive?"

Grandma also said: "Sister-in-law, the price of jade here is really not high, before liberation, a pair of glass bracelets are worth several gold bars." Good jadeite ornaments can be worth hundreds of thousands of silver dollars. ”

When my aunt heard this, she was taken aback: "Sister, this thing is not good to eat or drink, it is just as good-looking, it can be worth so much money, it is really rich to burn." ”

Grandma sighed: "If you don't talk about Shengshi jewelry, the market is gold." Now, the price of this jade is indeed the price of cabbage compared to the time of the Republic of China. ”

Grandma was taken by Youyou, and she already agreed with the concept of cabbage price.

The two uncles don't know much about jadeite, and grandma is still relatively expert in jewelry and jade under the influence of grandpa.

After listening to Grandma's explanation of jadeite knowledge, the mother finally understood the true meaning of the price of jadeite cabbage.

"Then I'll buy more tomorrow and save it for the children, anyway, we're not short of money now." Otherwise, we all say that the crops are wronged, and we just don't know it.

Sister, it's not that you said, I missed such a good baby, and I lost a lot of money this time. ”

When he came, Yoyo told his grandmother that he was going to Tengchong to buy jade, and his aunt knew about it and brought more money. This is also one of the reasons why the uncle who aided the DPRK sold sleeping tickets, after all, the sleeping compartment is safe.

Then, several people began to discuss the jade they saw today, as long as it was a jade that grandma thought was good, my uncle and aunt said to buy it. In the end, the price of more than a dozen jade carvings was close to 50,000.

My aunt didn't say that it was expensive, her old man was wealthy: "Sister, I want all of these, you have to pick some more for me, at least one for each grandchild." Also, you can pick out some jewelry for me, the children are older, I have to prepare a wedding gift for them. ”

Grandma looked at her: "Sister-in-law, how much money did you bring?"

My aunt pulled out the canvas bag under the bed: "These are all 100,000 yuan." "It's mung beans outside, and the money is hidden in the mung beans.

Grandma patted her chest in fear, "Sister-in-law, you just threw it in the room." ”

Uncle Aiguo smiled, "Aunt, I also brought money like this." The waiter even steals a few catties, but he can't turn over the money. ”

It's also thanks to my patriotic uncle that he is tall and has a lot of strength, and he carries such two big bags all the way, and he doesn't even see it at ease.

By midnight, the guest house was silent, except for a few street lamps in the middle passage, only the reception room was lit.

Yoyo's treasure hunting activity began, and she released the robot to clean up the treasure address of the Japanese army.

Grandma watched Youyou give instructions to batches of robots, and said to her with a smile: "You, listening to the wind is the rain, the treasure address recorded in your brain is not too strict, and the people here are not stupid, so they have been dug up a long time ago." ”
