Chapter 175: Searching for Jade in Western Yunnan, Dali Ancient City!
Because of the traffic, Wang Zhong's first stop needs to go to Dali for a transfer!
The ancient city of Dali is referred to as Yeyu, also known as the Purple City, its history can be traced back to the Tang Tianbao period, the Yang Tho Baa City built by the Nanzhao King Pavilion Luo Feng, is its new capital. The ancient city was built in the fifteenth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, with a radius of 12 miles, and the city wall is two zhang and five feet high, and two zhang thick. There is a gate in the east, west, north and south, and there are city towers, and there are corner towers at the four corners. At the beginning of liberation, the city walls were demolished. Rebuild the south city gate, the word "Dali" at the door is a collection of Guo Moruo's calligraphy. Entering the city from the South Gate, a Fuxing Road leading directly to the North Gate, has become a bustling street market, with shops along the street selling ethnic crafts such as Dali stone and tie-dye, as well as jewelry and jade. Some old houses in the streets and alleys can still be found in the old style, with flowers and trees in the courtyard, birdsong, and murmuring in outdoor streams. The scene of "three wells and a few pots of flowers in one household" is still the same.
Huguo Road, which runs east-west in the ancient city, is called "Foreigner Street". Chinese and Western restaurants, cafes, teahouses and handicraft shops are lined up one after another, and most of the signboards and advertisements are written in foreign languages, attracting blonde and blue-eyed "foreigners" to linger here and look for oriental ancient charm, which has gradually become a unique scenery.
"Wang Sheng, how is Dali's feng shui?"
Shen Yunpeng asked with some curiosity.
"Nature is good, Dali feng shui supports Cangshan, and Cangshan feng shui reflects the south of the Yangtze River." There is a hidden mystery of Cangshan Feng Shui, and the hidden mystery of Cangshan Feng Shui has its own uniqueness, which is "the hidden dragon and the bear". It looks like a bear up close, and a dragon from afar. Cangshan, also known as Diancang Mountain, was called Xiongcang Mountain and Zhucang Mountain in ancient times, due to the limitations of ancient geographical survey technology. People call Cangshan as Xiongcang Mountain, and its shape looks like a bear when it looks close, so it gets its name. With modern technology and according to Mr. Mengce's many investigations and opinions, it resembles a bear, but a dragon, like a living dragon that has been sleeping for thousands of years. The southern end of the mountain is connected to the Tiansheng Bridge, and the southern end of the interface is relatively low and thin, but there is often a fine wind, very much like "the yang energy exhaled by the dragon's nose", and the nineteen peaks are connected by peaks, and there is a stream flowing from top to bottom between every two peaks. Eighteen streams are formed, living like dragon scales flashing, according to Mr. Mengce's easy-to-learn feng shui point of view, it is better to call it "Canglong Mountain" than to call it Cangshan Mountain and Xiongcang Mountain. The 19 mountains extending eastward from the summit of Cangshan are all unique, each with a full and slender shape, and each mountain is connected to the Erhai Lake, and the distance is short. It's like a dragon's claw playing in the water. The northern part of Cangshan is very tight, and the strands are swirling, like a tightened steel rope. Crossing to the north is Lijiang City, and crossing Lijiang is the Jinsha River.
The southern end of Cangshan is the interface of Tiansheng Bridge is relatively fine, extends to the provinces south of the Yangtze River to the east, and extends to the Ailao Mountains to the south. Therefore, Dali Cangshan is a particularly important place of Canglong. It has a vast and deep geographical mystery, and has an important role in nurturing politics, economy and culture. In terms of the value of geography. Of course, it is necessary to rely on geographical feng shui, as the so-called "mountain is not high, there are immortals are famous; water is not deep, there are dragons and spirits; things are not many, useful are treasures; people are not strong, blessed are long" "Mandate of Heaven" mechanism; similarly, the city is not in its size, the key lies in whether its feng shui is good, although Dali and Cangshan are not very big, but the geographical feng shui is extremely good, sand, water, vein, **, direction, qi, wind seven elements, all exquisite, enough to hide "mountains and rivers are prosperous and rich" It is no wonder that the Duan royal family of the Song Dynasty established Dali as the national capital, and it has been developed and surplus for a long time.
All in all, Dali, its heavenly machine lies in the "big", the mystery lies in the "reason"; Cangshan, its heavenly machine lies in the "cang", the mystery lies in the "dragon", on its ancient and modern feng shui and the future geographical mystery, the formation of the real machine is: "Canglong majestic thousand scales show, the Yangtze River meanders through the ages; Kun hexagram feng shui shows the big li, one of the wind, flowers, snow and moon."
Wang Zhong held a compass and stood outside the south gate of Dali, which has the word "Dali" written by Guo Moruo!
Wang Zhong found that the so-called South City Gate was not in the south of Dali, but in the southeast direction!
The whole city takes Erhai Lake as the center of the circle, forming a feng shui pattern of "sitting in Kun to Gen"!
This also verifies one of Wang Zhong's judgments!
If the south gate is really located in the south direction, then Cangshan is located in the west of Dali!
Then it is a typical pattern of high in the west and low in the east, and it should be a white tiger who has committed a strict zhòng. People should be grumpy here, just want to fight, then how can this develop into a tourist area? Tourists don't have to run away? But this is not the case, Wang Zhong's contact situation is that this place is simply too harmonious society, travelers from all over the world live in peace here, polite and harmonious, cats and dogs are docile and lazy, slow and have no fighting spirit, there is music and beer everywhere, and the people drink together with incense and coke, and the people live a good life of eating rice with pancakes and steamed buns!
The south gate is in the southeast direction, and this qiē makes sense!
Feng Shui has dragons, **, sand, water, say to it!
The real dragon is really **, and it may not necessarily be able to get rich and expensive!
It also depends on the feng shui master's standing kung fu!
So there is a formula: the mountains are endless, the water is endless, the water is endless, and the people are endless!
Dali is sitting in Kun Xianggen, "Kunshan Gen Water Bureau"
Since the Gen (Northeast) side is the largest wealth position in the Eight Fortunes of the Xia Yuan, so in the 20 years before 2023, the places where there is Dashui in the Gen position are very, very prosperous, Dali not only has a large Genshui (Erhai Lake), but also has Cangshan Mountain in the Kun position, so that this place will also have a long life for women, a peaceful society, a prosperous person (the descendants of Genshui Wang), good neighborliness, and economic development will also be good, suitable for women to run a business, can develop culture, etc., in short, it is a rare and good place. If you come here for leisure, you will definitely be in a good mood.
There are two small reservoirs on the west side of the ancient city of Dali, one is a bit due north, this one is a bit of a kidney and leakage, this is consistent with the reality, and the other small reservoir is in the position of due west. This is Wangcai Shui, and it means that there can be suitable for beautiful women to live in, and the main girl is beautiful and intelligent. ”
"Mr. Shen, the women here are beautiful and very prosperous, if you don't have a family. You can consider it!"
Wang Zhong joked with a smile.
"Wang Sheng, you're right, the girls here are really beautiful and capable!"
"It turned out to be a feng shui relationship!"
Shen Yunpeng gave a thumbs up and exclaimed.
"If the management of this place is female, the development will be better!"
Wang Zhong said with a smile.
"It's beautiful!"
Wang Zhong looked at the beautiful ancient buildings along the way, as well as the glittering pagodas, and couldn't help but say sincerely. Dari Tado. There are pagodas, there are town feng shui towers, there are town water towers. There are no less than dozens of writing towers in the town of locusts.
Of course, it also has something to do with local beliefs!
Dali has believed in Buddhism for generations, and in ancient times, there were even monarchs who became monks!
Duan Yu of "Dragon Babu" was created based on King Dali. Several people traveled for a day in Daligu. Cangshan and Erhai all left their footsteps, and in the end, they were reluctant to turn around!
"Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a very beautiful bird, the red of the male was called Fei, and the green of the female was called Cui. Together, it is jadeite, which is the origin of the name jadeite!"
"If you want to choose a good piece of wool, you have to look at the skin. Because the outer skin is made by weathering the meat, the inner meat can also be glimpsed through the guò outer skin, and the delicate outer skin is delicate meat. If the skin is rough, the flesh is rough. There are furrows on the outside, and there are cracks in the flesh inside!"
Shen Yunpeng was holding a special flashlight. Shining a piece of jadeite rough stone for Wang Zhong, Weng Meiling introduced.
"You see, this stone has a yellow mist, and the certainty of cutting out topaz inside is very high!"
"Master Shen, what is fog?"
Weng Meiling asked with some curiosity.
"Fog is a technical term in the industry, which refers to the middle part between the rough stone skin and the meat. The different colors of the fog can distinguish the type of jade, yellow fog topaz. Red mist red jade, green mist green jade. This stone is a typical yellow mist!"
Shen Yunpeng threw his flashlight. Weng Meiling could clearly see that there was a faint yellow mist contained in the stone.
"Boss, get on the fortune machine!"
Shen Yunpeng picked up the rough stone in his hand and said with a smile.
"The fortune machine is a cutting machine, but in order to get a good intention, it is called a fortune machine here!"
The rumble of the fortune machine sounded, and seven or eight people came over on all sides, and everyone's eyes were staring at the fortune machine.
Weng Meiling looked at the fortune machine with a nervous expression,
"Miss Weng, don't be so nervous, it will take two or three minutes to cut. Gambling on stones is a kind of normal heart, don't always have the idea of getting rich overnight. There are a lot of legends here that people get rich overnight every day, is that true? It's true! But the odds are so small!
Shen Yunpeng said with a smile.
"What Master Shen said makes sense, you should look at the gambling stone with a normal heart, with the growth of experience and the improvement of luck, there will always be a time to gamble, provided that you have enough financial support!"
Wang Zhong said with a smile.
"Wang Sheng, that's right, so among the three elements of gambling stones, the last one is financial resources!"
Shen Yunpeng nodded approvingly.
"See the meat, it's up, it's up!"
Just as the three of them were chatting, the fortune machine also stopped roaring.
The rough stone selected by Shen Yunpeng was opened in a small window, and after being cleaned with water, the yellow and delicate jade could be clearly seen.
"It's a piece of topaz, the head of the water is not bad, boss, you cut up!"
The owner of the rough stone shop said with a smile on his face.
"Boss, can you take a step to talk?"
A man with a local accent chimed in.
"I'm not the boss, he's the boss!"
Shen Yunpeng pointed at Wang Zhong and said with a smile.
Wang Zhong smiled and nodded, and went to a no-man's corner of the store with the man.
"Master Wang, there won't be a problem, right?"
Weng Meiling saw that Wang Zhong was called over alone, and said with some worry.
"Don't worry, that's to negotiate with Wang Sheng, they have taken a fancy to this rough stone and want to buy it!"
Shen Yunpeng looked at the two of them and said strangely.
Sure enough, after a while, Wang Zhong walked out of the corner.
"They gave 100,000 yuan! I hope I can transfer this rough stone to them!"
Wang Zhong said with a smile.
"100,000 yuan, not too little!"
Shen Yunpeng glanced at the original stone, nodded and said.
"I'm not going to make a move, but I'm going to do another one down there!"
Wang Zhong said with a smile.
"Wang Sheng, you have thought about it, 100,000 yuan is not less! If you see meat with a knife below, this stone will be worth twice as much, 200,000 or 300,000 yuan is possible, but if you don't see meat with a knife below, this stone will be a gamble!"
Shen Yunpeng said with some surprise.
"If it is according to my advice, it is better to turn around!"
"Master Shen, what you said is not wrong, it will indeed be in our best interests to do so, but we are not here to gamble on stones, but to find jade. This topaz is more suitable for mascot in terms of color, texture, and size!"
"So I decided to leave it behind, even if it collapsed!"
Wang Zhong said with a smile.
"Hey, Wang Sheng, look at my memory, I'm gambling stone syndrome!"
Shen Yunpeng said with a wry smile.
"Then there's a knife at the bottom!"
"Boss, don't cut it anymore, this piece of jade is already very good, 100,000 yuan is a lot!"
The owner of the rough stone shop saw that Wang Zhong still had to cut, and kindly advised.
"A knife in heaven, a knife in hell, although your jade has cracks, you can't take out bracelets, but you can take out rings, necklaces, jade pendants, it's very good!"
"Boss, thank you, I still want to cut a knife! And I am the owner of a jade shop, buying all kinds of jade and jade, please help the boss for publicity!"
Wang Zhong said with a smile.
"Boss, you really think about it, you can't regret it!"
Seeing that Wang Zhong had made up his mind, the owner of the original mine shop asked again.
"Of course!"
Wang Zhong said affirmatively.
"Get rich!"
The boss loaded the raw ore, covered the baffle, and the huge scoring wheel spun,
Chirping!
Chirping!
The knife wheel rubbed against the skin of the raw ore, and the high-pressure water flow was cleaned in time, and several people were lying on the transparent baffle, always paying attention to the situation of the raw ore!
"Meat, meat, meat!"
"It's up, it's up!"
Someone shouted excitedly.
"Boss, you're in luck!"
"Boss, will you get rid of this topaz? I'll give 300,000!"
"Boss, I'll pay 350,000!"
A few people sitting around were alarmed by the shouting voice, glanced at Topaz, and took the initiative to quote their purchase price.
"I'm sorry, everyone, we are peers, and I am also in the jade processing business!"
Wang Zhong smiled and hugged his fists around, and said loudly.
"I not only buy good quality jade, jade, but even miscellaneous materials that are not in good condition, I also want them!"
Seeing that Wang Zhong was reluctant to make a move, several people shook their heads with some regret, and returned to the place where they were sitting just now to continue drinking tea.
"Wang Sheng, these are compradors of major jade shops, who are specifically responsible for purchasing jade materials!"
Shen Yunpeng looked at those people and said with a smile.
"This boss, good materials can be made into bracelets, rings, pendants, what do you want to do with waste materials that are not in good condition?"
The owner of the rough stone shop asked with some curiosity.
"Be a mascot to ward off evil spirits!"
Wang Zhong didn't sell it, and said with a smile.
"Master Wang, it is always said that jade can ward off evil spirits, but why can jade ward off evil spirits?"
Weng Meiling asked with some curiosity.
