Before Mr. Fang could open his mouth to comment, the man opposite spoke at this time: "Will your red jelly have cotton, will it crack? The material is stable and unstable? It seems that it is not called horn jelly in Xinjiang!"

Teacher Fang hurriedly introduced to Jiulong: "He is a carver, and he is also your Sanming fellow, ask me to help him see his new carving works." ”

The characteristics of red jelly are very clear, high hardness, high density, delicate quality, oily feet, yellow skin nails are dense, red meat reveals an attractive aperture under the light, although there is a crack on the back, but in the top carver, it is not a problem at all, as for whether there is a ......

However, since the other party is a carver, he should be very clear about the material of the stone, so Jiulong did not argue, but only shook hands with him politely, which was regarded as a greeting.

"It's the first time I've seen your big red jelly, it's really shocking, I just don't know what the texture is inside, go, go to the Hong Stone shop next door, Hong Shi is a senior player, he is well-informed, and he should be able to help you find the answer." ”

Teacher Fang saw Jiulong fall into deep thought and interrupted his thoughts.

"Hong Stone" is the founder of Jinhua Auction? He's also here? It's really good, there is a recommendation from Teacher Fang, he should be able to help him solve the problem, Jiulong was excited, almost shouted, or Xiao Qiao's eyes were sharp, pulled Jiulong's sleeve, and told him to calm down, Jiulong adjusted his emotions, and followed Teacher Fang to Hong Shidian......

Speaking of Hong stone, he is a well-known figure in the wax stone industry in Jinhua, and the initiator of the Jinhua wax stone auction is him, whose real name is Hong Daping, the authentic Jinhua people.

Before has been engaged in the construction of urban construction engineering business, the rapid development of the cause, a few years ago after work, found the beauty and value of the strange stone, so far in love with the strange stone collection, love the stone is intoxicated, in the words of Mr. Fang is almost crazy, he is particularly fascinated by the yellow wax stone stone, and then simply opened a strange stone shop in Jinhua Guzi City, hired a carver, and started a stone business.

When Jiulong and Teacher Fang walked to his shop, a man with long flowing hair and a goatee walked over, spoke softly, shook hands with Jiulong, and said that it was hard work, let's make tea.

Jiulong had already seen his image in Mr. Fang's post, needless to say, it was Hong Shi.

Jiulong did not rush to ask Hong Shi to see his big red jelly, but sat down to make tea first.

After a few cups of tea, Jiulong's fatigue disappeared, he stood up, first admired the beauty of Hong Shi's family, Hong Shishi immediately stood up, and introduced his proud work while accompanying Jiulong.

Kowloon was surprised to find that his carvings were different, and he liked to play with combinations, like the pair of stones in "kiss", like a pair of princes and princesses in love kissing, vividly depicting the intoxication of the kiss, the romance and loyalty of the kiss.

The four gentlemen are four brands, it can be seen that it is cut out of the same stone, the yellow is oily, clean, fully embodies the beauty of wax, Mei Lanju bamboo carved vividly, Expressive, a branch, a leaf, a flower, a stamen, all embody the gentleman's style, gentleman's rhyme, so that Kowloon most admired is a group of eighteen Arhat carvings, from the selection of material design to carving, have poured a lot of effort into the stone, in the words of the stone, these eighteen carvings, pieces of different colors, different expressions, almost including the best varieties of Jinhua wax stone, in order to find the size of the same, can carve the brilliant wax stone, he spent a full half a year to create it, sometimes cut out the bad thrown, carved not satisfied with the throw, on the current result, he is still not satisfied, because up to now, he has not found a piece of ice of the same size to carve！

It seems that he is a perfectionist, and it is no wonder that at his level, what stone has not been seen?

He also has a unique view on playing with stones, he believes that playing with stone can not hand over the stone to the carver on the job, from the selection of stone to the design and completion of the work, you have to participate in it, the highest level of playing stone is to play culture.

These few words, but the oracle bone pattern said the height of the same, it seems, the real master, the soul is connected, which also allows Kowloon to find a direction, after buying stone, there must be a concept, feel that it is suitable for carving what, do not meet their own requirements, and then consider starting, otherwise, as long as it is a good material to buy, no matter how much money can not be bought, what is worse is that it is easy to see the stone to buy, can not control themselves, the final result, only the stone is left at home, there is nothing left on the body, only the paper is rich, this is not the way to play with stones.

After figuring out this, Kowloon breathed a sigh of relief, and he no longer seemed so eager to carve the big red jelly.

Although Jiulong didn't say anything more, Teacher Fang was still thinking about this big red jelly, and he asked Jiulong to hand the picture to Hong Shishi to see.

Hong Shi carefully looked at the big red frozen pictures of Kowloon, and couldn't help but sigh, if this stone is carved well, it must be shocking, of course, if you ask a famous master to carve, a single carver will be more than 100,000, in Hong Shi's view, if he is to design, he will let the carver to thin and bas-relief, because the front and back of the moire is too beautiful, not to destroy.

Yes, retain beauty, discover beauty, create beauty, and the taste of the stone can be better sublimated, otherwise why move it?

Jiulong knew this, so he changed the topic, and he asked Hong Shi what he thought of the wax stone market.

"The wax stone market is a bit deserted right now. ”

Hong Shishi opened his mouth with this sentence, and then changed the conversation, "Although the market is gradually cooling down, in my opinion, this is not a bad thing.

"There are fewer hot-headed buyers, everyone is more rational, and the market is more mature than before. ”

Hong Shi said that some people in the market were crazy in the past, so that the inferior yellow wax stone also had people to grab, which made the surface of the market look hot, in fact, these inferior stones are worthless, as a collection, the quality must be guaranteed, there is room for appreciation.

What is being left out now is these low-grade yellow wax stones.

And those high-quality yellow wax stones are still hot.

"Rare things are expensive, and those transparent and pure yellow wax stones can still be sold at a good price. ”

Hong Shi said that a friend has a yellow wax stone in his hand, and bought it for 200,000 yuan the year before last, although it is not top-notch, but it is also superior, and now even if the price is 1.5 million yuan, some people are still rushing to pay.

In less than three years, the value has increased dozens of times, this kind of myth, before the change, Jiulong would feel unreal, but now he is no longer surprised.

Of course, his greatest wish is that this kind of good thing should fall on him, so he has high expectations for Da Hong Jelly, so he will go to other places to learn from it for it.
