Chapter 18: Discovering the Secret
After spending two days with her mother, Li Miao returned to school on Sunday afternoon.
Only this time, instead of going straight back to the dormitory, she went to the library first. After finding three books on jadeite, I went back to the dormitory without even eating dinner.
Shen Yin saw that she actually borrowed this kind of book and came back, and immediately smiled: "What do you think it is for? You study history and read geology books? Could it be that you want to study geology in your interdisciplinary elective course?"
Although Shen Yin and Li Miao have not known each other for a long time, the two have never crossed paths economically. But just looking at her ordinary life, Shen Yin also guessed that Li Miao's family background should be relatively ordinary.
Under such conditions, she didn't know Li Miao, and these were for purchase and consumption. And with Li Miao's temperament, I don't think it will be for appreciation. In this case, it makes sense to use this interest to book electives.
Li Miao did not defend Shen Yin's speculation.
However, Shen Yin's reminder gave her a good direction.
If she really wants to go that way in the future, studying geology is also a good option. Anyway, you have to add elective courses, and instead of choosing those that you are not interested in, it is better to choose geology.
However, since Shen Yin talked about the elective courses, Li Miao was also curious: "What are you going to choose?"
Shen Yin is studying accounting, and Li Miao is not curious about the content of her major electives, but wants to know what Shen Yin's plans are for interdisciplinary electives.
It's a pity that Shen Yin's attitude towards this matter is: "I haven't thought it through yet." ”
She didn't continue, but Shuangli disappeared between her eyebrows.
Li Miao didn't ask again, but lowered her head and began to read quietly.
What she is holding in her hand now is a book called "Autumn Mei Jadeite - Practical Jadeite Studies".
This book contains almost all the knowledge about jadeite that Li Miao wants to know now: jadeite origin, jadeite crack knowledge, jadeite counterfeiting, artificial treatment of jadeite technology, jadeite processing technology, jadeite raw material types, jadeite grading and other contents are reflected in this book.
Although I can't say how deep it is, Li Miao doesn't need anything too deep in this meeting.
But after only half reading it, she felt that her knowledge of jadeite was too ignorant.
At the very least, Li Miao didn't even know how many colors jadeite had.
Before this, Li Miao had always thought that jadeite was green, at most white. The knowledge points come from the jade cabbage that I saw in a travel album and is now placed in the Palace Museum.
Li Miao really thought that jadeite only had those two colors.
But after reading this book, Li Miao knew that the color of this jadeite was too exquisite.
At this time, there is no need to say anything green and white, at least the word jade does not mean the same thing.
Fei is a general term for red, yellow, brown, brown and other related colors in jadeite. It is not the primary color of jadeite, it is a secondary color, it is the formation of jadeite, iron and some other substances invade the jadeite, forming this secondary color.
There are a lot of red, light red, reddish-brown, and brown colors in the jade color system, and pure red is particularly rare. The best color is cockscomb red.
In addition, Huang Fei is also Fei, and Huang Fei is yellow, brownish yellow or brownish yellow. In general, it is not too transparent. The best yellow fei is chanterelle. Of course, there is also Li Miao's favorite purple, and the color of the purple picture is so hooked that people can't get out of it.
As for jadeite, that's the original color of jadeite.
But emerald is not just green, but also blue, gray, white and black. Each of these colors will have infinite variations. And there is not only one color on a piece of material, and it is not uncommon for two or more colors to be mixed together in jadeite.
And, in addition to this primary and secondary color.
Jadeite also talks about skin color and ground color.
There are several pictures in the book of the bag and the ground.
What impressed Li Miao the most was a bracelet called blue on a white background.
The base color of this bracelet is white or light green, and then gradually intensifies in part of the bracelet, from light green to dark green until the most recent dark green. The whole bracelet looks elegant and elegant, and the beauty is indescribable.
But not all white background green has such a process, the reason why Li Miao has a clear impression of it, one is that he likes that kind of color matching, and the other is because the background and color of jadeite are clearly separated here.
But the bracelet has only one color, and it doesn't have to be cheaper than two or three colors.
It also depends on the planting of water.
As for this kind of water, the classification is even more detailed.
There can be different classifications from different perspectives.
The simplest classification is bean seeds, glutinous seeds, ice seeds, and glass seeds. Bean seeds are the cheapest, glass seeds are the most expensive.
But in terms of price, growing water is not the only option. It is also necessary to consider the problem of color, the problem of whether the picture formed on the color has an artistic conception, the problem of flaws, the problem of new pits and old pits, the problem of carving, the problem of polishing and so on.
Li Miao is more and more addicted the more she watches.
It doesn't matter if the electricity in the dormitory is stuck, she snuggles up in the bed with a flashlight to watch.
When she saw it until three o'clock, Li Miao couldn't hold it anymore, so she fell asleep with the book in her arms.
As a result, even the dream was full of jade.
What kind of ink cui, iron dragon sheng, lotus root powder, what clear water blue, clear water green, golden silk species? A noun is rarer and stranger than a noun.
And what makes Li Miao even more headache than this kind is that she actually seems to have taken an art class in her dream, and she memorizes dozens of green colors. What is imperial green, zhengyang green, spinach green, apple green, bean green......
There are so many varieties that Li Miao is almost suspicious of life!
As a result, the end of not sleeping well was the next morning, and Li Miao had a headache again!
Shen Yin was very nervous about this: "What's wrong with you, why are you covering your head, does your head hurt again?"
Shen Yin was very afraid that Li Miao would get sick again, but after Li Miao heard her words, she suddenly fell into trouble.
It's vaguely like that, and I felt like this last time.
I also had a dream all night, and then I was stuffed with a lot of inexplicable things in my head...... When she went to class again, she found that she remembered everything in the book!
Thinking of this, Li Miao couldn't help but shudder.
She quickly climbed onto the bed and casually flipped through the pages of the autumn eyebrow jade that was placed under the pillow.
As a result, she only read the first five words on the first line, and the rest of the book suddenly appeared in her mind.
Word for word!
Even the hundreds of pictures about jadeite interspersed in this book, every detail on each picture, she remembered it all clearly!
