As far as Qian Dexiang is unreliable, Meng Zitao feels that it is more reliable to do it himself. Now Qian Dexiang said this, which is also in line with his heart. So, I looked for it on my own.

Speaking of which, Qian Dexiang's house is really messy, east and west, except for a small road in the middle, other places are full of things, and Meng Zitao doesn't know how to get his feet, for fear of stepping on things.

Looking around, Meng Zitao was quite helpless and said, "I said Brother Qian, can you sort out the things in the room, otherwise I won't be able to leave."

Qian Dexiang looked left and right, and also felt that the room was too messy, and he was a little embarrassed, so he nodded again and again and tidied it up.

In this way, Meng Zitao selected useful things, while Qian Dexiang sorted them out beside him, and it was soon noon.

At this time, Meng Zitao already had five things around him, and these five were all genuine, but they were all things from the Qing Dynasty, and the combined value was only 10,000. This is still the market price, and if you sell it to a store, it would be nice to be able to have half of it.

Seeing that he had only picked out a few things from thousands of things, Meng Zitao also felt quite speechless in his heart, looked at Qian Dexiang who was still sorting out next to him, and said softly: "What a loser!"

"What did you say?" asked Qian Dexiang with some confusion looking back.

Meng Zitao smiled and said, "I said that we are going to take a break?"

Qian Dexiang reacted: "Oh yes, it's time for dinner, let's go eat first." ”

Back in the living room, Meng Shuliang hurriedly asked what he had gained, and Meng Zitao said it truthfully.

What kind of virtue Qian Dexiang is, how could his parents not know. Therefore, listening to Meng Zitao say that they found a few genuine products, the old couple was very happy and ate more.

After eating, considering his father's health, Meng Zitao asked his parents to go home first, and then he and Qian Dexiang continued their work in the morning.

In this way, until three o'clock in the afternoon, Meng Zitao looked at all the things in this room. He stood up, stretched his waist, moved his bones, and his body suddenly felt a little more comfortable, this matter had to be changed before, it is estimated that after reading these things, he will have to lie down tired.

"It seems that this Tai Chi is not practiced in vain. Meng Zitao was very satisfied with the state of his body, but he also knew that the main thing was the credit of the ability.

Immediately afterwards, Meng Zitao looked at the nine things he had selected around him, thinking about the things in this room, he actually picked out such a few genuine items, and he didn't know what to say.

Qian Dexiang also wanted to cry without tears when he saw Meng Zitao's achievements in one day, but he immediately cheered up and asked with a smile: "Xiao Tao, how much are these things worth?"

Meng Zitao briefly introduced them one by one and said: "Brother Qian, I'll help you bring these things, count 20,000 together, what do you think?"

"It's only 20,000, will it be a little less?" Qian Dexiang smacked his lips.

"Well, if you think 20,000 is too little, then you might as well sell it to someone else. Meng Zitao smiled.

To be honest, if Meng Zitao hadn't looked at the face of Qian Dexiang's parents, he wouldn't have paid this price at all, but he didn't expect Qian Dexiang to be unsatisfied, so he would have gone with him, at most he would have been able to do voluntary labor.

It's just that, as the old saying goes, there will be no such shop in this village, since you Qian Dexiang don't agree this time, then if you have to sell these things to him again in the future, he will definitely not accept them at this price.

Seeing Meng Zitao's attitude, Qian Dexiang thought about it, and felt that it was better to sell it to Meng Zitao, and the two families had been communicating for a long time.

So, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Xiao Tao, I also said that it was smooth, so I will give it to you at this price." ”

Meng Zitao nodded unhappily, and then said, "Brother Qian, didn't you say before that there are still a few treasures hidden in your cabinet?

Originally, Qian Dexiang didn't want to take those few treasures at the bottom of the box out, but now that there are so many things, Meng Zitao chose nine, and he only sold them for 20,000 yuan, which was beyond his expectations.

Thinking that the money was not enough for him to open a store, Qian Dexiang could only reluctantly take out the things, so he said, "Okay, then let's go out." ”

Qian Dexiang's parents went out, so Meng Zitao poured himself a cup of tea and drank it, and after a while, he saw Qian Dexiang walking out of his room with a jewelry box.

"This is a pair of ice seed floating flower jade bracelets I bought, can you see how much it can be worth?" As he spoke, Qian Dexiang opened the box and put it in front of Meng Zitao.

When Meng Zitao looked at it, he felt very speechless, because this was not a jade at all, but a water foam.

Water foam is the jade associated with the jadeite vein, the color is generally white or off-white, with fewer white spots and color bands, uneven distribution, with a bluish color band is called "water and land floating blue flowers".

Because the foam head is very good, transparent or translucent, like ice jadeite, it is often processed into bracelets, pendants and carved pieces to sell in the market, and many people are difficult to distinguish.

Why did Meng Zitao recognize this as a water foam at a glance, because he had eaten water foam before, and he lost more than 3,000 yuan. Later, he learned from the pain and studied the foam carefully. Therefore, when he saw Qian Dexiang's bracelet, he knew that Qian Dexiang had been deceived by others again.

"Brother Qian, it shouldn't be expensive for you to buy this bracelet, right?" Meng Zitao asked.

"Hehe, it's really good, it's only 70,000 yuan. Qian Dexiang smiled proudly, but he reacted immediately, and asked in a trembling voice: "How do you know that it is not expensive, and there will be no problems, right?"

Meng Zitao said: "Brother Qian, don't worry, this thing is indeed not jade, it is water foam." ”

"Water...... Mozi, what is this?" asked Qian Dexiang with some stammering.

After Meng Zitao explained, he was stunned for a while, and then said, "Since it is a companion of jadeite, it shouldn't be cheap, right?"

Meng Zitao shook his head: "Water foam is a type of albite, while jadeite is a polycrystalline aggregate composed of jadeite, omphacite and sodium chromium pyroxene to reach the jade level. There is a big difference in the amount of mineral reserves between the two. ”

"Albite has a wide distribution in the world, and jadeite this polycrystalline aggregate is only a few origins such as Myanmar, and the quality of jadeite from other origins is far less than Myanmar, coupled with the market's enthusiasm for jadeite, the price of jadeite naturally rises, but albite is not worth much, like your bracelet is only a dozen yuan. ”

Qian Dexiang exclaimed: "Impossible! How can there be such a difference!"

Meng Zitao said: "This price is not what I said, you can go to the market and ask if this is the case." ”

Qian Dexiang didn't know how to describe his mood at this time, and after being stunned for a moment, he yelled.

Meng Zitao looked at Qian Dexiang's remorseful appearance, but he didn't pity him at all in his heart, because he was to blame for all this.

There are so many cheap things to pick up in this world, and even if you want to pick them up, then you have to have some skills. And Qian Dexiang was so good that he thought that he had always been cheaply delivered to the door, but he still cheated himself.

As the old saying goes, there must be something hateful about the poor.

After a while, Qian Dexiang's mood calmed down a little, he raised his head and asked, "Xiao Tao, how do you know that this is water foam?"

"I'm suspicious again, can I still lie to you about this kind of thing?"

Meng Zitao saw a trace of disbelief in Qian Dexiang's eyes, and felt a little unhappy, but he still explained it without looking at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha, but from now on, he would definitely not want to deal with people like Qian Dexiang again.

"It's very easy to tell the difference between jadeite and water foam, because the specific gravity of water foam is much smaller than that of jadeite. If you have jadeite, hold a water foam in one hand and a natural jadeite in the other hand to compare, the water foam has a light and fluttering feeling, and the jadeite has the feeling of a beater. ”

"Emerald is an important feature to distinguish jadeite from other similar jade, jadeite emerald manifestations include 'snow flakes', 'mosquito wings', 'sand star', etc., and the cleavage surface of water foam can appear similar to jadeite 'sand star', but it is not obvious, only sporadic appearance, you can also compare it to understand"

"Also, look at this floating flower ......"

Meng Zitao picked up a bracelet and said, "The jade flowers are like beautiful ink and melt into its base, which looks a little ethereal. The foam flower is very three-dimensional, not so much 'floating' as 'embedded', you see, it doesn't look like a piece of colored mud thrown into the water......"

After listening to Meng Zitao's detailed explanation, Qian Dexiang sighed, then raised his head and asked, "Xiao Tao, do you accept this pair of bracelets?"

Meng Zitao was stunned, and immediately understood what Qian Dexiang meant, and a cloud of anger suddenly rose in his chest, stood up, and sneered: "Since we don't even have trust between us, it doesn't matter if we don't do this business, you might as well sell your high price!"

With that, he turned and walked towards the door.

As mentioned above, if it weren't for the fact that Qian Dexiang's father was an old friend of his father, the relationship between the two families was very good.

Unexpectedly, today's things are thankless, Qian Dexiang is still so suspicious, and he still suspects that he deliberately said that the real thing is a fake. This is already about his professional ethics, even if Meng Zitao is a clay man, he has three points of anger, even if Qian Dexiang still has any good things, he doesn't want to serve.

Seeing that Mencius was really angry, Qian Dexiang hurriedly stood up and said: "Xiao Tao, I can't speak, you have a lot, forgive me once!"
