Li Tianhe seems to be afraid of being recognized, and he glances left and right, after all, this industry is also interconnected, and people often use jade and the like to find this kind of feng shui shop to open the light or do some ritual of removing the evil. He glanced at Zhou Tong, who had just come back, Li Dashao glared at Zhou Tong for a while, coughed very embarrassedly, took off his sunglasses, and pulled out a stiff smile.

Zhou Tong smiled gently, he stepped forward to open the door of the shop and led Li Tianhe in, "Mr. Li, is there anything you need help with?"

Li Tianhe saw Zhou Tong's demeanor, the expression on his face was much more natural, he followed Zhou Tong into the store, and said: "I hit Mr. Zhou at first sight a few days ago, and I remember it very ......well these days."

Before he finished speaking, Li Tianhe felt a cold knife fall on his face, his body shook, looked at the root of his sight, and saw that the master of the stone solution who was following Zhou Tong that day was staring at him with a cold face, and he was a little dazed.

Zhou Tong said, "What does Mr. Li drink?"

"Whatever, you're welcome. Li Tianhe went down the slope, didn't dare to continue his previous words, and changed his words, "Although there is only one side of the acquaintance, but I have regarded Mr. Zhou as an old friend who has known him for many years, I received an invitation yesterday, and immediately thought of Mr. Zhou, I don't know if Mr. Zhou can give me some thin noodles, go with me for two days, and keep this trip worth it." This is polite, but Li Tianhe's expression does not have much politeness, he is arrogant, he doesn't know how to put down his body at all, when he says this, it sounds like a request, but the taste in the words is "Lao Tzu invites you to go to give you face, if you dare not go, you will brush Lao Tzu's face, and Lao Tzu will definitely not let you feel better."

As he spoke, Li Tianhe handed over the invitation card in his hand, Zhou Tong took it and took a look, and suddenly felt like he wanted something and sent it to the door.

The invitation sent by Li Tianhe is an invitation to the famous jade conference in China.

In front of this conference, Zhang Jiayuan's gambling stone event is not enough to see, J City is a well-known gambling stone city in the country, has always been known as a small Pa Dang, born and raised in J City, while knowing the basic common sense of human beings, they know the relevant knowledge of gambling stones, and there is even a legend that the best gift for the family to give the child a coming-of-age ceremony is not gold and silver is not a sports car, but to take him personally to pick a piece of rough stone he likes.

With the gambling stone as the center, it has cultivated a unique culture of the city, and the city emblem of J City is a half-solved original stone, which can be seen in its gambling stone sheng itinerary.

Zhou Tong took the invitation and looked at it carefully, it is similar to the activity process of Zhang Jiayuan, but the style is much higher than that of Zhang Jiayuan, in addition to the regular gambling stones, there are special gambling stone forums with the theme of "full gambling", "half-light and half-dark" and "bright materials", and the good things that have been solved can be traded on the spot, bought and sold privately, and can be notarized or submitted for auction.

It couldn't be more appropriate.

With such a regular activist, he can also find a way to collect some rough stones, but he doesn't know if the money on hand is enough. Zhou Tong pondered, and was going to go back to the bank to pick up a look to see if he could withdraw all the money he had, and if he couldn't, he would borrow a little bit from the bank.

Thinking of this, Zhou Tong accepted the invitation, "Thank you Mr. Li for the invitation, I will definitely arrive on time." ”

The corners of Li Tianhe's mouth hooked, and he nodded with great satisfaction, he looked around, probably because he was in a good mood today, and everything around him was pleasing to the eye, and he felt that the furnishings in Zhou Tong's store were really attractive to him, and a few jade artifacts were in good condition, Li Tianhe touched them and said, "Mr. Zhou is a knowledgeable person, these jades are all good things, moist and moist." ”

"Yes, it can also drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters, is Mr. Li interested in buying one and putting it back for a while?" Zhou Tong said with a deep meaning.

Li Tianhe took his hand back when he heard this, he took away his happy gaze, smiled fakely, and said, "I'm sorry, the fortune teller said, I am born hard, and demons and monsters can't avoid it, how can they come to harass me." ”

"Demons and monsters can't be ......," Zhou Tong deliberately dragged out his tone and asked in an unfathomable tone unique to a fortune teller, "What about the woman?"

Li Tianhe: "......"

Li Tianhe shuddered, as if he had been seen through by Zhou Tong, and stammered: "Woman, woman, what woman? What is Mr. Zhou talking about?"

"Nothing. Zhou Tongwan smiled, and took a small jade gourd from the shelf and handed it to Li Tianhe, "This jade gourd is given to Mr. Li." ”

Li Tianhe took the gourd suspiciously, and listened to Zhou Tong say: "The gourd sounds like Fulu, many sons, can absorb evil qi, it is a small gift I gave to Mr. Li, thank Mr. Li for taking me to participate in the gambling stone conference." ”

These words were subtle, and then connected to what Zhou Tong said before that he wanted him to guard against women, Li Tianhe couldn't help but have a little more heart, and after he thanked him, he put the jade gourd in his pocket, drove away.

After Li Tianhe left, Yun Xiu floated out of the jade-carved cabbage.

That ice jade was carved into a cabbage by Ling Yuan at the request of Yun Xiu, and when it was just carved, although Zhou Tong felt that Ling Yuan's skills were superb, he couldn't stand Yun Xiu's personal inclusion in a jade cabbage, and for the first time he saw Yun Xiu floating out of the cabbage gang, he couldn't help but laugh for a long time.

According to Yun Xiu's explanation, the cabbage is noble and elegant, and he is clean and self-conscious, which is just right for him, but Ling Yuan sneered at the time and dismantled Yun Xiu's platform, saying that the cabbage is easy to feed, and Yun Xiu is now a spirit body, and he is precarious, so he can survive a little bit by being attached to the cabbage.

Yun Xiu said: "He provoked Peach Blossom himself, not to mention, he still thinks that you are lying to people, what are you helping him do? "Human life naturally refers to abortion.

Seeing Yun Xiu coming up here, Zhou Tong knew that he didn't have good words, Yun Xiu's mouth hurt the dead, and there was no chance of attacking, according to what Ling Yuan said, now he is like the old aunt in the east of the village who speaks ill of others behind his back all day long, and he has a good time.

Zhou Tong calmed Yun Xiu's feelings and said, "If something happens to him, who will take me to J City to participate in the Gambling Stone Conference?"

Yun Xiu choked, looking at Zhou Tong with the kind of eyes that are a mountain and a mountain high, and couldn't help but turn his head and whisper to Ling Yuan: "The vision is not bad." ”

There is still more than a week to the agreed day, and this more than a week is enough for Li Tianhe to bear.

There is a small mole in the center of his eyebrows, and the evil aura of the peach blossoms is condensed in the small mole, when I saw Li Tianhe in Zhangjiayuan a few days ago, the peach blossoms in the small mole are still just budding and ready to be released, and I can't see anything famous if I don't look carefully, but this time I saw it, and the peach blossoms didn't know what was going on and was spawned to sprout, and it grew very fast, dyeing the small black mole a little red.

There will be a catastrophe in a few days, and the jade gourd given to him by Zhou Tong can only help Li Tianhe block the disaster, and it is impossible to survive the catastrophe safely.

Li Tianhe is the kind of appearance that will provoke peach blossoms, coupled with his later family background and personal achievements, he is very comfortable in the women's pile, and gradually develops a character that does not take women very seriously, as the saying goes, what you can't get is the best, and how can you know how to cherish what you get?

Just like Yun Xiu said, let him learn some lessons.

After waiting for more than a week, when it was the day of the agreed meeting, when Li Tianhe appeared in front of Zhou Tong and them again, he was like a changed person, as if he had been tortured by someone to shed a layer of skin, and he was not angry at all.

He sat in the car and waved to Zhou Tong and them weakly, "Get in the car and catch the plane." ”

Zhou Tong and Ling Yuan glanced at each other, and then looked at the little black mole in the center of Li Tianhe's eyebrows, the red in it had faded a lot, and half of the peach blossoms had gone, but there was still the other half in it, recuperating.

Li Tianhe sighed aggrievedly, hooked his neck, and hooked out a jade gourd, Li Tianhe sighed, "This jade gourd is really good." ”

The jade gourd that he held in the palm of his hand cracked, as if it had been stabbed by something, and Li Tianhe muttered: "A woman is so fierce...... I was right to dump her. He held the jade gourd in his hand, coughed, and said with a serious face: "I owe you a favor this time." After a pause, Li Tianhe leaned in front of Zhou Tong with a shy face, "Then do you think I still have peach blossoms now?"

Zhou Tong burst out laughing, he nodded, and said: "Yes, but it is not prosperous at the moment, you can be careful in the future, and it will be good to abstain from sex for a while, but ......" He deliberately lowered his voice and said in a slightly threatening tone, "If your private life in the future is still like this, I am afraid that the peach blossom will haunt you for a lifetime, and when the time comes, no one will be able to help you." ”

"Who are you scaring ......" Li Tianhe thought so in his heart, and he almost couldn't help rolling his eyes on his face, but after his first reaction was done, his heart was empty.

Maybe...... Is it true......?

The plane flew all the way to J City, and after landing, Li Tianhe took Zhou Tong and them to the hotel they booked there.

Li Tianhe doesn't have many friends of the same age, most of them are wine and meat friends who met in the Fengyue field, and they can talk a few words when they get together on weekdays to talk about luxury cars and women, and they basically can't find a friend who can say a word when they talk about jade gambling stones. Along the way, I chatted with Zhou Tong a lot, and found that Zhou Tong was far from what he imagined, relying on a mouth to eat, and he had real skills in his stomach, and he was much more refined in speaking and doing things, and even laughed like a spring breeze, which was really comfortable to watch.

Li Tianhe couldn't help but think, even if Zhou Tongzhen didn't have any skills, he invited someone over on impulse, this trip was not a loss, it was very cost-effective to meet such a friend.

Li Tianhe wanted to save face, and arranged the best hotel for Zhou Tong, a large suite, which was about the same size as Zhou Tong's own home, or even a little bigger.

Ling Yuan didn't have such a good treatment, and arranged a slightly worse one for him, but Ling Yuan directly carried his bag into Zhou Tong's room, and didn't come out until dinner.

Li Tianhe prepared a table for Zhou Tong and them to receive the wind and wash the dust, J City is his hometown, is the center of the Li family's power, as a native of J City, of course he wants to have a good banquet for Zhou Tong.

At the banquet, Zhou Tong toasted a few glasses of wine, and all the best Moutai entered Ling Yuan's stomach, Zhou Tong smiled gently, and occasionally coughed a few times without knowing whether it was true or fake, which made Li Tianhe embarrassed to trouble Zhou Tong.

After eating, drinking, and drinking, after the end, Li Tianhe also wanted to explore Zhou Tong's routine first, and prepared a small supper and knocked on Zhou Tong's door, only to find that the calcite master who looked like a god was in Zhou Tong's room, and he had just finished taking a bath, wrapped around a bath towel, and walked out of the bathroom dripping all over his body.

The little snack Li Tianhe was holding in his hand was almost thrown to the ground by him, and the whole person was stupid.

But after all, he is used to mixing in Fengyue Field, he has seen all kinds of winds and waves, and he also has one or two friends who like men, Li Tianhe quickly reacted, he entered the room very calmly and freely to distribute snacks for Zhou Tong, and before he could say a few words, he was stared at by Ling Yuan's gaze and trembled, and finally simply excused himself to leave.

The moment he closed the door, Li Tianhe's brain woke up with a buzz.

Damn, he didn't ask anything!

And in the room specially prepared by Li Tianhe for Ling Yuan, a jade cabbage was lying quietly on the big bed, the window was open, and a spring evening breeze blew in, and the jade cabbage turned over very comfortably......

Zhou Tong They arrived in J City a few days in advance, thinking about getting familiar with the environment, Li Tianhe's energy in the past few days has been all on Zhou Tong, and he took Zhou Tong to visit several antique streets in J City. Zhou Tong's attention to jade is particularly high, and he does not shy away from Li Tianhe, Li Tianhe is not stupid, and he can see what Zhou Tong is picking all the way, but he can't see what he is picking, as long as it is jade, Zhou Tong will take so many glances, and it is not the best not to look at, and he has a big appetite.

Li Tianhe thought about it, and simply did what he liked, and he took Zhou Tong to a jade shop.

Before the three of them walked in, the owner of the jade shop took the lead in welcoming them, this kind of store door generally has a face-to-face guy, this gang of guys has no other ability, look at people and recognize people are first-class, you can see who is likely to be the real buyer among the guests who come over, greet the boss in advance, so that the people in the store are ready, and when the guests come to the door, then look at the situation to come out to solicit customers.

The Li family has a lot of influence in J City, but anyone who does business on this street, even if it is a stall under the overpass, knows Li Tianhe, and the guy who came to meet the shopkeeper went to call the shopkeeper as soon as he saw Li Tianhe.

The shopkeeper is a middle-aged man in his forties, his figure is not out of shape, wearing a dark blue satin gown, the buckle has been buttoned at the neckline, meticulous, a pair of black-framed glasses on the bridge of the nose, but some of the late Qing Dynasty, the Republic of China businessman appearance, if you look carefully, you will also find that the ornaments on the owner's clothes are all good jade, especially the jade against the neckline, carved into the shape of a camellia, rich and compelling.

In fact, this is the merchant's propaganda method, which is nothing more than a complaint to the buyer, you see, the jade I use on my body is produced in our store, and it is the best thing.

After Li Tianhe entered the house, he was led by the shopkeeper to sit down, and the tea was brought up, not slacking off at all, Zhou Tong dipped his light, drank Longjing and watched Li Tianhe play majestic.

Li Tianhe said: "Boss Xue, today I brought a friend to visit you, if you want to say the best jade shop in J City, you Yiyu Pavilion is called second, no one dares to call it first." ”

"Li Gongzi is really lifting a small shop. Boss Xue smiled a little more when he heard this, he looked at Zhou Tong, looked at it quietly, and said, "Who is this little boy?"

"My name is Zhou Tong, his name is Ling Yuan, and I disturbed the boss. Zhou Tong introduced him to Ling Yuan.

Boss Xue smiled so that the corners of his eyes wrinkled, and asked, "I don't know what the two sons want to see?"

Zhou Tong didn't care about Li Tianhe's temptation, and asked bluntly: "I want to see if there is any better jade in the store, preferably similar to this one." He took the broken negative monument turtle to Boss Xue, Boss Xue wore glasses and looked at it carefully, looking at the broken wound was also very distressed, and finally said, "This is the best imperial green, look like this, it didn't take long to solve it, right?"

"Hmm. Zhou Tong nodded, "May I ask the boss, do you have one here?"

"Yes, there is a ......," Boss Xue said with some embarrassment, "I won't tell you that imperial green is very precious, and ordinary shops are used to make treasures of town stores, and small shops do have a piece of imperial green, but it is handed down by the ancestors, and it is not easy to take out." ”

The piece of imperial green was placed in the store, although it was not clearly written as the treasure of the town store, but Boss Xue noticed that Zhou Tong's eyes were on the piece of imperial green in the town store for a while as soon as he entered the house, his eyes were very poisonous, and he probably recognized it, and he would seem hypocritical and stingy if he shirked it at this time, so it was better to admit it generously.

Looking at this young man's bearing, he doesn't look like a person who can come nonsense.

In this case, Zhou Tong is not easy to win people's favor, and the imperial green that the boss means is not very good, especially hanging in this kind of shop, although it can attract wealth, but it is not very good for the jade itself, it is much worse than Duanmu Qiu's, and it is far less than Zhou Tong's requirements.

Sweeping the other jade objects in the store, there was nothing that satisfied him, Zhou Tong didn't say it clearly, but his eyes were a lot slack.

Li Tianhe observed the words and looks, and naturally saw the change in Zhou Tong's eyes, he was calm and light on the surface, and he was very surprised in his heart.

What's going on this week? What are you going to buy? You can't even look down on the things in the Yiyu Pavilion? His previous remarks are not boasting, although the Yiyu Pavilion is not a big place, everything is a fine product, and it is not the kind of thing that comes from the secret passage, it is all official goods.

I don't look down on the same???

Boss Xue has been in business for so long, and he can see that Zhou Tong's interest is very high, and he knows that this business can't be done, but he didn't say much about it for the sake of face, and he accompanied Li Tianhe and them to greet other businesses after a few polite words.

It just so happened that someone stepped into the house at this time, holding a half-arm-long, pillow-wide brocade box in his hand.

The man was about thirty years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, which made people think of the elegant scholar with a little charm in the water town in the south of the Yangtze River at a glance. ”

"Okay. "Boss Xue also collects jade here, and after he led people to sit down, he changed to another pot of tea for the second order.

Zhou Tong, who was going to leave, didn't move, he stopped and looked at the brocade box that the man was holding in his hand.

Zeng Ruiming carefully opened the brocade box, revealing the jade inside.

It is a two-winged divine beast carved from jadeite, the face is like a tiger, the body is like a leopard, there is a horn on the top of the head, and it goes straight to the sky, the facial features of the divine beast are hideous, the mouth and nose rush forward, the tongue is slightly curled, it seems to be roaring in the sky, the face carving is extremely detailed, and the whole jade has full deterrence.

Li Tianhe saw Zhou Tong's gaze fall on that thing, and he couldn't help but take a few more looks.

It was a typical ballast tool.

The ballast was first used to take the corners of the town mat, the use of the mat in the Warring States period was great, some corners of the place are easy to be brought up when getting up and sitting, and the ballast is needed to calm down, most of the ballast utensils are carved into the appearance of fierce beasts, such as leopards, tigers, sheep, turtles, snakes, etc., and some are like this ballast, which is carved into the appearance of a mythical beast that cannot see what the prototype is.

Later, with the development of witch culture, the ballast was used to suppress evil spirits, and the ballast was often sent into the ballast for suppression and guarding during the funeral.

It is very likely that this artifact came from the tomb, and one of the rules of this Yiyu Pavilion is not to accept the things in the tomb, no matter how good it is.

Zeng Ruiming may not know this, and after opening the lid of the brocade box, he directly made Boss Xue blackface, and Boss Xue frowned and said: "Since Mr. chose to ship in our Yiyu Pavilion, he should know the rules of our Yiyu Pavilion." Boss Xue pointed to the ground and said, "We don't accept the things under the ground, so you should ask for another one." ”

"No......" Zeng Ruiming said nervously when he heard this, "Boss Xue, listen to my explanation, although this thing is a ballast weapon, it was not taken from the ground. He pondered for a while, and saw that Boss Xue didn't have any conflict, so he said slowly, "I know your rules here, but I also know that Boss Xue is a sincere person, so I brought this to you to sell." This ballast ...... Actually, I carved it out. ”

"What?" Not only was Boss Xue stunned, but Zhou Tong and the others were also taken aback.

This ballast carving is meticulous, every hair is carefully carved, not at all like the level of craftsmanship that modern people can have, nor is it that modern people's techniques and skills are backward, on the contrary, the development of tools allows modern people to be able to carve by hand well, but the ballast at hand, the technique is not a thing of this era.

Boss Xue looked at this ballast carefully without believing it, and looked at it carefully several times with his veteran eyesight before he was convinced that what Zeng Ruiming said in front of him was true.

He just looked away, this ballast is not an antique, but a modern artifact.

Since it's not an underground thing, and it's such a good handicraft, Boss Xue has no reason not to do this business, he turned his mind around, and immediately changed his tone: "Oh, why didn't you say it earlier, it's really a misunderstanding, your technique is really good, why did you think of carving a ballast vessel?"

Zeng Ruiming saw that the boss believed his words, and couldn't help laughing, when he laughed, his eyes were extremely clear, and he looked very clean: "I just feel that this piece of jade is especially suitable for making ballast vessels." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Tong's eyes changed.

This guy is kind of interesting.
