To be able to creatively create a new standard from the stones of the Hongshui River does require a wealth of experience and the courage to say no to tradition, and this alone is worth learning from Kowloon.

To "shape, quality, color, pattern, rhyme" five beauty standards selected stone even if they all get high scores, it is difficult to distinguish the superior, this is progress or regression, Kowloon can not tell, its biggest benefit is to find a way out for the water stone, but also for the stone market to inject a steady stream of resources.

This is at least a good thing for the further development of the stone world.

It's just that I don't know how the traditional stone species and the Gebi stone species feel after their advantages are deprived.

I hope that the well water will not interfere with the river water, and everyone will play their own game, and this stone world will be peaceful.

Jiulong prayed silently, anyway, the introduction of the water stone standard, for him who played Jiulongbi, there was no disadvantage, but in the future in the process of looking for strange stones, in addition to referring to the water stone standard, we must add one: rare, rare is expensive, that is to say, combined with Hou Lao's "beauty, strange, rare" and the length of the water stone appreciation standard, only in this way, their own play stone has characteristics, live up to Hou Lao's expectations.

As for the traditional stone appreciation standards: "wrinkled, thin, leaky, transparent, ugly", Jiulong heard that it was tailored for the four famous stones in ancient times: "Lingbi Stone, Kunshi, Taihu Stone, and British Stone".

Thinking of this, Jiulong's heart suddenly brightened, and he asked Mr. Wei what are the characteristics of the big fossil, so that it has become a weather vane of the new standard of stone appreciation.

Mr. Wei was about to answer, the mobile phone in his hand rang, Mr. Wei took it, and was very anxious: "Quick, go to the Yantan Hydropower Station, there are good stones fished out over there." ”

"Mr. Wei, it's far from Dahua Rock Beach here, at least seven or eight o'clock in the evening, it's better not to go. ”

Heshan Qingquan persuaded him.

"yes, I have to set up a stall at the market tomorrow morning, it's too late. ”

Lashi is also a hundred unwilling.

"In this way, Lashi, you go to Liuzhou first, let Heshan Qingquan tell you how to go, Xiao Huang, do you want to go with me to see the world, it's very exciting." ”

"Of course you have to go!" Kowloon replied unequivocally, "Lashi, you go and book a standard room first, and then I will have a place to live when I come back." ”

Everyone took what they needed, and Kowloon followed Mr. Wei on the road.

"There are good stones, and I am full of energy. ”

Mr. Wei said to Kowloon on the road, and then answered Kowloon's question.

The characteristics of Dahua colored jade are as follows:

There are many changes in form, the body shape is large but not stupid, the layer is fresh, concave and convex, there are peaks, platforms, valleys, etc., the magnificent landscape of nature is collected in the stone, forming an intriguing landscape;

The colors are colorful and brilliant, with different shades, natural color rhyme, strong oil luster, and the beauty of each side is different.

The characteristics of Dahua colored jade, which is mainly bright and moving, are golden and brilliant, and the pearl is magnificent, giving people a sense of warmth, festivity, and joy;

The texture is hard, the internal molecular structure is compact, the degree of silicification is high, people call it jade, the hardness is 5-7 degrees, the washing degree is very good, the stone skin is exceptionally smooth and moisturized, its steadfast character, is the most appreciated stone; the texture is mainly the layer pattern and a part of the mineral color spots and along the vertical bedding surface into fine lines distributed texture, plus the layering is clear and natural, the thickness has changes, the pattern is rich, very charming.

From the level and texture of Dahua colored jade, we can not only see the magic of nature, but also see the age of the earth and the secret words of the universe, which is the most shocking.

"Is it easy to pick up large fossils?"

Jiulong asked, if it was easy to pick up, the stone picking tools he brought with him could come in handy.

Mr. Wei smiled: "The big fossil is a deep-water stone, so it can't be picked up on the river beach, and it must be salvaged in deep water."

"Because it's a rapids, it's dangerous.

"If the water ghost touches a stone, he will value it with the owner, and once the price is determined, the water ghost can immediately get half of the cash from the owner.

"Why can you get so much? Because it is very dangerous for water ghosts to fish for stones, and if you get half of the money, any casualties have nothing to do with the owner of the boat.

"As for the stone, it belongs to the shipowner, and the profit or loss of the stone in the future has nothing to do with the water ghost.

According to statistics, the death toll of the entire Hongshui River because of the salvage of strange stones has been no less than 100 people. ”

"Wow, it's so miserable, playing with stones and causing death?"

Kowloon gasped, he felt that he was lucky today, and it would be better to be careful in the future.

Mr. Wei glanced at Jiulong and continued: "Yes, due to the lack of comprehensive measures, many sailors working in deep-water and high-pressure operations have suffered from decompression sickness, so the number of sick and disabled people is as high as hundreds.

"The development of Hongshui River Strange Stone is not only a difficult process, but also a huge cost. ”

Mr. Wei recalled that in the nineties of the last century, the monthly salary of a sailor who salvaged strange stones was as high as 3,800 yuan, and he was in charge of food and accommodation.

From 2002 to 2004, when the salvage was at its peak, hundreds of salvage boats were crowded every day in the short 500-meter section of the Hongshui River, where precious large fossils were produced.

Kowloon pondered, it is really people who die for money, and birds die for food, which will remain unchanged through the ages.

"Where do you start to judge the quality of a large fossil?"

Jiulong simply didn't ask about the water ghost, it was too heavy, and his mood would be ruined, so he changed the topic, which was what he was most concerned about.

"The shape of the large fossils has not changed much, most of them are simple and elegant, and they are known for their quality and color.

"The texture of the large fossil is hard and delicate, the degree of jade is high, the colors are bright and rich, there are rich colors such as golden, turquoise, jujube red, etc., especially the golden grass pattern is precious.

"The stone skin is delicate and delicate, with the heavy texture of porcelain glaze, and the shape is full and thick, showing the above-mentioned noble and rich temperament, that is, 'treasure' is the top grade.

"These stones have been washed, the skin color is very good, the color is tiger skin yellow, the large fossil lines are natural and smooth, there are delicate changes that are difficult to do artificially, the stone surface has subtle ups and downs, the colors penetrate each other, there is a moist and bright natural glaze, and there are natural pores on the stone skin. ”

Mr. Wei made a gesture on the road, and Kowloon was finally clear.

To put it bluntly, playing with big fossils is mainly about playing with quality and color, and these two points are excellent, so it's OK.

"If a large fossil is of good quality and shape, it is not a fine product. ”

Kowloon came up with this question and blurted it out.

"Yes, there's another story here, which is about this kind of boutique, do you want to hear it?"

Mr. Wei deliberately paused.
