Chapter 405: Fighting for Beauty
The master of ceremonies on the rostrum, after looking at such an ugly clay inkstone brought by the hostess, also looked dumbfounded, and first looked at Jia Rudao, who was standing in the middle of the scene with a leisurely face. Then I looked at the eyes of those who were either curious or disdainful, and struggled in my heart for a while before I said helplessly: "Okay, now these thirteen treasures are finally in front of us, although I haven't seen the true face of Lushan, but I still believe that it can give us a surprise." Otherwise, wouldn't this 'Doubao' conference be a lot less fun?"
In the end, the master of ceremonies actually laughed a little happily, and the laughter of "hehehe" seemed to be able to infect everyone. Jia Yidao felt that the people who were still expressing incomprehension in front of him were looking forward to him at this time.
"Perhaps, this clay inkstone can be cut out of a superb ruby?" said the master of ceremonies, and then quickly skipped over Jia Yidao's clay inkstone, and began to introduce the following treasures.
And everyone's concern about Jia Nidao has also been well alleviated, after all, since Jia Nidao can take out such a piece of mud inkstone, it naturally explains its differences. Among the people present, there were also some people in the jewelry and jade industry. For such a piece of mud inkstone in front of him, he naturally could not see it very clearly. Similarly, there are many people who know the details of Jia Nidao.
A person who is good at gambling on stones, but at this time, he is taking out a piece of mud inkstone, which is a strange performance in itself, right?
However, to Jia Nidao's surprise, when almost everyone, including Yang Fan, began to shift their attention to other treasures, Yang Siyi looked at Jia Nidao with some curiosity. Because Jia Yidao's gaze has always been looking at it casually, as if he is admiring the various beings in this birthday banquet hall, when he suddenly glanced at the table in the middle of the room, he felt that someone was paying attention to him, so he took a second look, and then he realized that it was Miss Yang.
Subconsciously, Jia Rudao greeted her with his eyes.
And the other party's reaction seemed to be a bit unexpected by Jia Nidao. It seems that Yang Siyi, who has always been relatively calm, looked at Jia Nidao at this time, and there was a slight worried look on his face, which made Jia Nidao feel a little embarrassed. Suddenly, I remembered that the invitation card between myself and Ah San was given by Yang Siyi. If he Jia Yidao and Ah San were embarrassed at the venue of the birthday banquet, does it mean that Yang Siyi was embarrassed?
Or, at this time, Yang Siyi is just worried about Jia Nidao?
When all the seventeen treasures on the rostrum were gathered, the atmosphere of the scene undoubtedly reached the highest point.
Even Jia Yidao, who had been looking at the rest of the people curiously, couldn't help but put his eyes on the rostrum. If you want to talk about the size, the largest one almost reaches the volume of the body of half a person, and when it comes to the smallest, I'm afraid it belongs to the brocade box that appears, right?
The master of ceremonies didn't say too many words, and directly began to invite all the people involved in the "treasure fighting" to come to the stage and lift the mysterious "veil" of the treasures he wanted to participate in. After all, after removing the clay inkstone of Jia Rudao, the rest of the treasures are still holding the pipa and half-covering their faces.
Even if it is Jia Yidao's mud inkstone, isn't it a simple and ordinary appearance, giving people a lot of expectations?
The No. 1 brocade box, under the personal unmasking of Mr. Zhang Jiansheng, finally revealed its true face. A piece of Hetian white jade, which is very white, is very consistent with the theme of "Doubao" this time, jade jewelry. In addition, although the size of this piece of white jade is small, it should not be underestimated.
Even if Jia Yidao is still sitting in his position relatively calmly at this time, he can still feel the warmth and delicacy of Hetian Baiyu through the illumination of the light, coupled with the exquisite carving craftsmanship displayed when carving, it is enough to show Zhang Jiansheng's confidence.
You know, even according to the price of Hetian white jade materials on the market today, such a small piece of stuff is worth nearly a million prices. What's more, with Zhang Jiansheng's introduction, you don't need Jia Nidao to listen carefully, or even need to be too knowledgeable, for the names of those famous artists in jade carving, Jia Nidao can also feel it, this will be a famous work!
Otherwise, Zhang Jiansheng wouldn't have used it to participate in "Doubao", right?
Jia Yidao also noticed a detail, that is, when Zhang Jiansheng opened the brocade box, his eyes inadvertently glanced at Yang Siyi, the kind of scheming, but with a little confident smile, really made people look at it without any annoyance.
Coincidentally, the treasure of No. 2 turned out to be jade!
Of course, from the very beginning, people, including Jia Yidao, could guess that the No. 2 treasure could completely guess based on its appearance, which should belong to wool or something.
Or it is the wool of bloodstone, or the seed material of nephrite, or it may be the rough stone that belongs to jadeite. After lifting the cloth covered on it, its specific form was revealed, which was a piece of Yushanzi, but it was not unexpected by people.
The material of the flowing water in Hetian Mountain weighs more than 20 kilograms. It's no wonder that the hostess was so struggling when she was carrying. And the material of the mountain and flowing water also has some color, and it is very ingenious that on the material, a very elegant pattern is naturally formed. It's like a vigorous and upright pine tree, or a quiet path, shuttling between groups of mountains and forests, which means longevity, especially the guests at the scene appreciated.
In addition to the value of this piece of material itself, it is also the most perfect congratulations to use it to participate in the meaning of "Doubao", so that it can appear at Mr. Yang's birthday banquet. As soon as this treasure showed its final form, it undoubtedly won the hearts of many people present.
Jia Rudao also sighed in his heart, these young heroes are still really painstaking. Presumably, none of the seventeen treasures on the rostrum are so-so and random works, right?
Thinking of this, Jia Rudao couldn't help but look at Yang Siyi's back with some curiosity, just in terms of figure, it was still as charming as ever. Moreover, the other party's face was also deeply impressed in Jia Yidao's mind. In other words, when a person's beauty is completely concentrated to one point, the temptation of "red lips" has already gone out of the lips itself, right?
Even if he was sitting in the middle of the field, even if it was a treasure on the rostrum, no matter how brilliant it was, Jia Yidao could feel how much of his gaze was secretly floating towards Yang Siyi at this time!
"What, don't you feel a lot of pressure?" Xu is after the initial surprise, at this time, Ah San seemed much calmer, looking at Jia Nidao's expression, there was not too much curiosity, it seemed that Jia Nidao made the act of bringing the mud inkstone to the stage, and also won Ah San's approval. "I pondered, if you take out a superb jade ornament from the 'green, fat, red and thin', there is still a good chance of winning. ”
That potential meaning is still not optimistic about Jia Rudao's piece of mud inkstone.
"Hehe, if you could go back in such a short time, I wouldn't mind replacing that inkstone with a jade ornament. Jia Rudao said with a smile.
"Sometimes, I really don't understand what's going on in your head. Ah San said helplessly. "Could it be that I accidentally asked you to participate in the 'Treasure Fight' and deliberately gambled with me? Or are you really confident in this inkstone?"
"What do you say?" Jia Rudao asked rhetorically.
"If I were to bid on the things on the table, even if I chose the first two treasures that had already been revealed, I wouldn't choose yours. Ah San said, and deliberately added, "Don't say it's a million, it's 10,000 yuan, and I won't give it out......"
"That's what you said. Jia Rudao said meaningfully, "When the time comes, you must not regret it......"
"You'll regret it. Ah Sanqiang refuted himself. However, Xu saw Jia Nidao's confident posture, and then thought of Jia Nidao's gambling stone and his vision, as well as the luck of the way after stepping into the antique shop, what he said at this time turned out to be a little weaker. Even Ah San himself, I'm afraid he doubts his own judgment, right?
If at the beginning, there was still the possibility of Jia Rudao playing tricks, then at this time, when the treasure was about to be revealed, there was no need to remain so mysterious.
Ah San didn't ask directly, firstly, he was naturally not optimistic about Jia Nidao's clay inkstone, and secondly, with his understanding of Jia Nidao, he also knew in his heart that even if he asked, Jia Nidao would not say it at this time.
……
In the blink of an eye, the true face of four or five treasures was revealed on the display platform in a row. Among them, there are cabbages carved from jadeite, which are lifelike in form, and the shape and size are also commensurate with the real cabbage, but Jia Yidao looked at it carefully, but it was just average in texture. Otherwise, just by virtue of the name of the four words "jade cabbage", it is enough to set off a wave of fanatical pursuit, right?
Even so, the appearance of this jade cabbage also led to a small Gao Yu Dynasty at the scene.
In addition, there is a pair of Qing Dynasty "Eight Treasures Shou Zi" jade Ruyi, according to the introduction of its owner, this thing is also very promising, it is said that it is still the property of Prince Qinggong's house. Ganoderma lucidum head carved auspicious clouds around longevity, crank on the treasure pot, goldfish, lotus, conch, umbrella, bat and other auspicious forms, is also complete.
The only thing that makes people feel a little pity is this thing, which is a little small in style, and it is obviously used for decoration. Fortunately, they come in pairs, but they have a good meaning and collection value.
As for whether it is Prince Gong's or not, that's two words.
In addition to nephrite jade, such as jade bowls and jade ruyi in the Qianlong period of the modern Qing Dynasty, or carved ornaments made of jadeite, there are also carved rockery ornaments such as agate, and vases carved from turquoise. Almost all of the best in jade jewelry have appeared.
In particular, the work of No. 10 to participate in the "Doubao" is a delicate and perfect "Maitreya Sending Treasure" jadeite carving, its size is 2o centimeters in height, and in width, it also has a 15 centimeter appearance. Especially in terms of thickness, it has reached the level of seven or eight centimeters. As soon as it appeared, it won the applause of many people.
Moreover, in the jadeite material, it is a relatively high-quality ice kind of yang green, if Jia Rudao is not the leader of the jadeite line, and there are too many excellent materials in his hands, he must be glad to be fascinated by such a carving ornament that is already a rare product on the market, right?
When the red cloth covered by the first day of the new year was uncovered, the green color was moving, and in an instant, I felt a little like spreading my wings and flying, which shows how pure the yang green of this work is.
And what insiders like Jia Rudao want to see is more profound. In the carving of jadeite works, this thing is also very in place. The carver's understanding of this piece of material is undoubtedly very in-depth. The carving method used is also based on the situation, and the image of a fat Maitreya wearing a robe, a treasure bag on his head, a ingot, and a treasure gourd is vividly shaped.
In particular, the details, such as the fine lines on the robe, cloth bag, ingots, gourds and other objects, create the treasure of Maitreya, which shows the skill of the carver. Not to mention the starting price of one million, in Jia Yidao's view, such a work, as well as the price of Maitreya Buddha, which means "giving wealth and giving treasure", should at least go up to ** million, and even directly exceed 10 million in value. Compared with the ring face carved with the best material in the ice seed yang green, or the bracelet, such an ornament is not inferior at all.
It's no wonder that there are knowledgeable young people, when they see such an ornament, they can't help but shout out the price of "10 million".
When the things on the display table were unveiled one by one, and gradually approached the thirteen treasures, Jia Rudao was also ready to go on stage. After all, the revelation of any treasure is done by the owner of the treasure. Even if it is Jia Nidao's mud inkstone, no matter how inconspicuous it is, Jia Nidao should need to stand up and explain a few words, right?
Otherwise, just let others look at it like this, I really can't see if such a piece of clay inkstone is really worth a million. However, Jia Nidao was ready to go on stage, and the master of ceremonies on the stage seemed to take special care of Jia Nidao, and after hesitatingly looking at the thirteen treasures, that is, Jia Nidao's mud inkstone, he suddenly asked: "Do you want to know this thing, why was it put in this place?"
"Yes. Someone in the audience really answered, and they couldn't help but provoke a chuckle.
"Hehe, do you want to ......," the master of ceremonies paused and said, "I won't tell you either." At least, for the time being, it won't tell you. Next, I would like to invite the owner of the fourteenth treasure to ......"
As he spoke, the master of ceremonies still blinked in the direction where Jia Nidao was sitting, and when he saw that it was obviously a move to ridicule Jia Nidao, everyone naturally laughed and laughed. And Jia Rudao once again became the focus of the birthday banquet, but it was the owner of the fourteenth treasure who had just come to power, and no one paid special attention to it at this time.
However, the man also looks like a successful person, at least, with a certain level of communication. After seeing that everyone's eyes were intentionally or unintentionally glancing at Jia Nidao's side, and the treasures on the display table, no matter how jeweled the other treasures were, only Jia Nidao's mud inkstone turned out to be simple and elegant, so that people couldn't get the slightest possibility of "treasures", but it was precisely because of his elegance that among so many priceless things, it could be regarded as a "flock of chickens and cranes", which was really beautiful.
Judging from his eyesight, even if Jia Rudao can't win in the end, he should at least be able to leave a very deep impression in Yang Siyi's heart, right?
Thinking of this, I don't know how many young Junjie are envious of Jia Yidao in their hearts at this time. And in terms of words, it is natural to use this thirteenth treasure to squeeze Jia Rudao.
"It seems that I am not the right time to come to power. A gentle word reattracted everyone's attention to the showcase. Subsequently, the fourteenth treasure unveiled its mystery, which was a "big red robe" in a piece of bloodstone, which catered to Old Man Yang's preferences and appeared at Old Man Yang's birthday banquet, which naturally added a lot of points to him, and there were bursts of warm applause during the banquet.
Jia Rudao looked at it and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The move that originally planned to go on stage at this time fell in the eyes of Yang Fan and Ah San, but it was a little more playful. Ah San also deliberately said: "Hehe, Xiao Jia, I see that when you haven't come on stage, you have already attracted everyone's attention." I guess after tonight, you may become a star in the jewelry and jade industry...... However, that master of ceremonies is actually preparing to let your thirteenth treasure come to the finale, obviously very optimistic about your things, don't let us down!"
