Meng Zitao raised his head: "There is something wrong with this thing-"

The stall owner shook his head: "I really don't know much about this, but that's what I do." ”

Meng Zitao said, "Then how much do you want?"

The stall owner said, "It's cheaper, even if it's 100 yuan." ”

"Two things for 100 pieces. Meng Zitao pointed to the sword head next to him.

The stall owner shook his head directly: "100 is too little, at least 300." ”

Meng Zitao said: "This jade pendant is not worth a lot of money at all, besides, we will be born once and cooked twice, it will be cheaper, and we will often do your business in the future." ”

The stall owner hesitated: "I'm also a small business, so let's do it, even if it's 280, no matter how little it is, it will definitely not be done." ”

"That's the price. Meng Zitao also accepted it when he saw it, and besides, the reason why he bargained so much was also to avoid the suspicion of the stall owner.

After paying, Meng Zitao took the things back to the sixth child, smiled at them, and walked to his store without saying much.

The reason why Meng Zitao didn't say the leak on the spot is that the reason is simple, after all, it is not a good thing to look away, and hyping it is almost the same as slapping the face, and then no hatred will become a hatred, not to mention wanting to pick up the leak in his stall.

Therefore, don't sè on the spot if you usually pick up a leak, otherwise you have to be careful to be remembered.

Lao Liu and Lao Niu also knew the rules, and when they saw Meng Zitao's demeanor, they knew that Meng Zitao had missed again, but they were only a little envious.

In this world, if a person's achievements are a little higher than their own, then there is still the possibility of envy, jealousy and hatred, if it is not so high that they can not reach it, then there is only hope left.

When Meng Zitao returned to the store, he saw Dajun and Tan Guihua sitting silently. Tan Guihua's eyes were red, as if she had cried, and the army looked a little embarrassed. I don't know what happened to the two just now.

Meng Zitao said with a smile: "Army, men should have some grace!"

Before the army could speak. Tan Guihua said as if she was angry: "I just like him for being incomprehensible." ”

"Poof......

Meng Zitao was speechless and waved his hand: "Yes, one of you two is willing to fight, and the other is willing to suffer, what should you do, you can deal with it yourself." ”

Tan Guihua muttered in a low voice, "Originally, I didn't expect you to help. ”

Meng Zitao shook his head, and then went to prepare some lukewarm soapy water and put the jade pendant in it to soak.

The reason why it is washed with soapy water. Because the soap is mild and does not hurt the jade so much, if it is cleaned with 84 or the like, it will corrode the jade.

Moreover, even if you wash it with soapy water, you should wash the soap quickly afterwards, if it is not clean, the residual soap liquid will also affect the jade.

Therefore, it is best not to use soap when cleaning jade. If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to wash off that layer of dirt, Meng Zitao would not have used soap to clean it.

After changing the water several times in a row, Yu Pei finally revealed her true face. But. At this time, the cleaning has not been completed, Meng Zitao soaked the jade pendant in clean water at room temperature, then brushed it with a soft brush, and then soaked it in hot water about 70-80 degrees Celsius, so that the water temperature cooled naturally and then dried the jade in a ventilated place.

Such a process is to allow the "pores" of the jade to be fully dilated, and some of the dirt inside is spit out.

By the time Meng Zitao finished washing the jade, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon.

After lunch, Tan Guihua went back to her place to pack her luggage, because she wanted to protect He Wanyi. Of course she couldn't have lived in that neighborhood of the Great Army, as she had just said. Just to test the attitude of the army, the result disappointed her.

After Tan Guihua left. Meng Zitao learned from the army about what the situation between the two of them was.

In fact, the relationship between the two is also simple, Dajun used to be Tan Guihua's instructor, and Tan Guihua had a love for Dajun at that time. Later, in a mission, the army saved Tan Guihua's life, and after that, Tan Guihua said that he would not marry. In this way, the two have been entangled for several years.

Meng Zitao asked, "What is your impression of her?" ”

"Not bad. The army nodded.

Hearing this, Meng Zitao said: "Since this is the case, I think it's wrong for you, and you don't have a girlfriend, why don't you agree to her? Besides, you are not too young, what's wrong with talking about a partner getting married? Could it be that you have a fear of marriage?"

Dajun sighed: "I don't have any fear of marriage, but I'm not going to get married in my life." ”

Meng Zitao frowned and said, "Why? Do you have something unspeakable?"

Dajun said: "Let me tell you the truth, when I was on a mission in the past, I was seriously injured, and as a result, I didn't pay attention to my body and didn't take care of it. At that time, the doctor told me that with my physical condition, it would be very difficult to live past the age of 50, and I would not live to be 60 years old at all. Isn't it harmful to marry you like me?"

Meng Zitao felt a little like a fantasy, and said: "Which doctor is so powerful that he can even see the lifespan." ”

Dajun smiled: "Of course it's our Chinese medicine, but don't think it's those quacks on the TV network, the real Chinese medicine can't be learned in a while, it takes talent and hard work." Forget it, I won't talk about it, anyway, let me tell you, the one who diagnosed me is a real master. ”

"Then he doesn't have any way?" Meng Zitao asked.

Dajun said: "It's not that there is no way, he told me before that there is an ancient recipe to try, but there is no medicinal herb in it, and he will help me find a medicine to replace it." Now, I take the pills he made for me every day so that my body doesn't decay so quickly. ”

When Meng Zitao heard this, he felt bad in his heart, he was silent for a while, and said, "In a situation like yours, is it better to rest at home?"

Dajun smiled: "Of course not, as long as I don't exercise too much, there is only benefit to me, and work is not a burden for me at all." ”

Meng Zitao thought about it and felt that if the army's body didn't allow him to work, Shu Ze wouldn't send him over, but there was something that made him quite unhappy: "The last time you went to do the task, the amount of exercise should have passed, right?"

Dajun said: "It is a secret, and I can't say much about it, and if I don't participate, maybe someone will die because of it." ”

Seeing that Dajun said this, Meng Zitao didn't say much, he changed the topic and asked: "Then how are you going to deal with Sister Tan's matter, I think her temper is very stubborn, and she shouldn't be someone who can give up so easily." Also, does she know about your physical condition?"

Dajun sighed, "She knows, and I've used all the methods I can use, and I don't know what to do with it." Hey, let time decide. ”

Meng Zitao couldn't do anything about it, so he could only recite a sentence silently in his heart, hoping that a lover would eventually become a family.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Meng Zitao just took the cleaned jade pendant in his hand, and after admiring it for a while, Lao Liu and Lao Niu came together.

Meng Zitao said with a smile: "The jade pendant has just been washed, you really came early, it is better to come by coincidence." ”

"Hehe, it's still my ingenuity. Lao Niu smiled and looked at the jade pendant in Meng Zitao's hand: "This is what I bought in the morning?"

Meng Zitao nodded and said, "Yes, the surface was all black and greasy just now, so I cleaned it." ”

The sixth child was surprised: "It looks good." ”

This jade pendant is green jade texture, jade quality is meticulous, carved to ward off evil spirits, its design is ingenious, rich in layers, lifelike, plus the jade craftsman is delicately depicted, ghostly workmanship, this jade pendant is really a fine work among the jade pendants of the Han Dynasty.

Meng Zitao smiled: "It's not as simple as looking good, you can look at its carving." ”

As soon as the thing was in his hands, the sixth child's eyes lit up a little, and at this time, Meng Zitao pointed to the magnifying glass on the table again and said, "You use a sixty-fold magnifying glass to see." ”

The sixth child was a little puzzled at first, but he immediately thought of the key to it, and hurriedly took out a magnifying glass to observe it carefully.

I saw that the edge of the line groove carved on the surface of the jade pendant was regular, and there was no collapse, and only the inconsistency of the front and back lines was occasionally seen at the bend. There are a number of short grooves connected to form the traces of the yin line, each groove is made of two ends of the tip of the shallow middle of the width of the jujube kernel shape, so the width of the same long line is slightly different, the bottom of the groove is both connected and roughly equal length arc frosted traces......

The more he looked at it, the more shocked he became, and finally asked, "Is this a gossamer carving?"

The old cow suddenly exclaimed: "What! This is a work carved out of gossamer wool?"

Meng Zitao nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, no surprise, the carving technique should be a gossamer wool carving, and the characteristics are also obvious, isn't it?"

"Gossamer wool carving" is a kind of fine line carving technique popular in the Warring and Han dynasties. This kind of thin yin line is shaped like a hairspring, as thin as a hair, tactful, smooth and strong, also known as "gossamer carving" or "jumping knife".

Its characteristics are as described by Gao Lian of the Ming Dynasty in "Yan Xianqing Appreciation Notes": "The Han people ponder, the magic lies in the double hook, the grinding method is like a flow of flow, fine into the autumn, and there is no sparse and uneven, the handover is intermittent, like a gossamer white drawing, without any stagnation." ”

According to the published archaeological data, the prototype of the "gossamer wool carving" technique was seen in the late Spring and Autumn period, but the length and consistency of the line pattern at that time were not as long as those of the Han Dynasty, and it was mainly used to form a rectangular silk pattern grid to fill the gap between the relief patterns of each group of units.

In the Han Dynasty, the technique of "gossamer hair carving" matured, and it was generally used on small jade tortoiseshell jade monkeys with a diameter of no more than 1 cm. The table xiàn is thin and shallow, but the law is strict. It is generally believed that the gossamer wool carving was lost after the Han Dynasty.

As the saying goes, rare is expensive, there are not many fine works of gossamer wool carving, like the jade pendant that Meng Zitao just got to ward off evil is even rarer, and the market value must be at least two million, no wonder Lao Liu and Lao Niu are so shocked. (To be continued.) )
