PS: It's the end of the month, ask for monthly pass support.

Of course, Wang Guan doesn't know how to identify jadeite wool, Jia Qin and they do.

At this time, Jia Qin and the others had no distractions, concentrating on observing the stones in the warehouse, and they had a tacit understanding to look at themselves, and there was no intention of communicating at all.

After all, friendship is friendship, but business is business, and it can't be mixed up. Even if they are intimate and very good friends, they should communicate afterwards, not whisper in front of everyone, and you need to pay attention to the impact......

Anyway, these people were drunk among the stones anyway, but Wang Guan was drunk and woke up alone, and after walking around, he came back to the door again.

Seeing this, Liu Huaen asked in surprise: "Are you optimistic?" ”

"Look at it." Wang Guan nodded seriously.

"Awesome!" Liu Huaen exclaimed, and his eyes were naturally quite suspicious.

"I can't read it anyway." Wang Guan was very frank: "I'm not playing jadeite. ”

"Oh."

Liu Huaen was suddenly stunned, and then thought of Wang Guan's performance just now, and immediately smiled: "You are a fragrance taster?" ”

In that place in Hong Kong, incense taster is not a rare profession, and considering that Wang Guan knows so much about agarwood, it is no wonder that Liu Huaen guessed in this regard.

"No, I'm an antique collector." Wang Guan smiled, and suddenly said: "Can you tell Wu Gang, I don't want a gift or anything, and take me to the warehouse just now to have a look, I'm more interested in things over there." ”

“…… OK. Liu Huaen was stunned, and then agreed. He and Wang Guan are not familiar with each other, since it is Wang Guan himself who gave up such an opportunity, then why should he meddle. is responsible for conveying Wang Guan's request to Wu Gang, which can be regarded as benevolent and righteous.

At the same time, Wu Gang was also a little surprised, so he naturally asked the reason. Under Liu Huaen's explanation, it was understood that Wang Guan was not a jade merchant. And after the collector, he immediately showed a happy smile.

In fact, from the things in the other warehouse, Wu Gang is more inclined to collect jadeite wool while operating it. Compared with jade merchants like Jia Qin, Wu Gang naturally felt that collectors like Wang Guan were more kind.

So for Wang Guan's request, Wu Gang agreed without thinking about it. Then he was beckoned, and Wang Guan came back to the warehouse where many collectibles were stacked.

As a translator, Liu Huaen naturally followed, conveying each other's meaning to the two from time to time.

At this time, Wu Gang pointed to some tattered objects with great interest. The narration went on and on. Under Liu Huaen's translation, Wang Guan understood that these things were relics of the Bagan Dynasty.

Incidentally, despite being an ancient civilization with a long history, Myanmar did not form a unified state until 1044, with three feudal dynasties: Bagan, Dongwu and Gongbang.

The Bagan Dynasty was the first unified empire to adopt Theravada Buddhism as its state religion. At the end of the 13th century, Kublai Khan of the Yuan Dynasty led the Yuan army to destroy it, and set up the province of Central Burma to administer the northeastern part of Burma.

Bagan Dynasty to the present day. It's almost a thousand years old, so it's no wonder that these objects are a little broken. However, no matter how broken things are, they must be of great significance to Wu Gang, and Wang Guan will not be so uninteresting and indiscriminately belittled. On the contrary, he also praised a few words.

This is human nature, after all, if someone despises the objects of the Qin Dynasty, Wang Guan will definitely turn his face.

Speaking of which. Wu Gang's collection is still relatively rich. However, it may be due to the strong Buddhist belief in Myanmar, so many of the objects in the collection are related to Buddhism.

Buddha statues, that are the most basic things, gold, silver, copper, iron, stone, wood. There are also clay sculptures, and there is no shortage of Buddha statues of various materials. In addition, there are some bits and pieces of ritual utensils, which can be directly held for a huge water and land puja.

Wang Guan looked at it carefully, but suddenly found an extraordinary string of Buddhist beads.

The reason why it is extraordinary is that this string of Buddhist beads is different from ordinary Buddhist beads, not the difference in quantity, but the difference in volume, each Buddha bead is almost the size of a baby's clenched fist.

Originally, such a large volume of Buddha beads was rare enough, not to mention that the shape of each Buddha bead was also quite bizarre. It is not a traditional circle or oval, but a human head. To be exact, it should be the head of the monk.

Seeing this string of Buddhist beads, Wang Guan was naturally a little curious, and after getting Wu Gang's permission, he couldn't help but take it over and look at it. I saw that there were eighteen Buddhist beads in this string, and each one was carved into the head of a monk.

This shape of the Buddha beads should have a special name, at least in China can be called the Eighteen Arhats. Because the head of the monk carved by the Buddha beads is similar to the eighteen Arhats, it is named. However, under normal circumstances, the bracelet of the eighteen Arhat Buddha beads should be relatively small and suitable for wearing on the wrist, and it is indeed rare to see such a large string.

After looking at it twice, Wang Guan felt that the prototype of this string of Buddhist beads should be the string hanging around the neck of Monk Sha in Journey to the West. The wrist must not be hung up, and it is very eye-catching and majestic when worn around the neck.

At the same time, Liu Huaen also took the opportunity to explain the origin of things: "Wu Gang said that this string of Buddhist beads is a handicraft before the liberation, and from the perspective of style, it should be transmitted from China, if you like it, I can give it to you." ”

"Huh?"

When Wang Guan heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "How embarrassing is that...... Help me be hypocritical, just say that I really like it, and if he really wants to send it, then I will be disrespectful. ”

Liu Huaen smiled, and he didn't know how he translated it, anyway, Wu Gang laughed, picked up the eighteen Arhat Buddha beads directly in Wang Guan's hand, and then hung them around his neck with his own hands.

"Thank you so much!" Wang Guan smiled lovely, and he didn't know what the etiquette was here in Myanmar, so he simply shook hands and shook his hand to express his gratitude. And Wu Gang also patted Wang Guan on the shoulder and responded with two sentences.

"He said you're welcome, it's good if you like it......" Liu Huaen translated, but muttered in his heart that the collection is really different from others, so many jade wool materials are not chosen, but he picked a string of worthless Buddha beads, which is really a watermelon and sesame seeds.

This is also a different concept, for people who often gamble on stones, there is an opportunity to get wool for free, and people who don't know how to grasp it are fools. I never think that if the wool is cut down, it is not as good as the Buddha beads in hand.

Of course, this is also true in reverse, for people who gamble on stones, they would rather spend money to buy the opportunity to gamble on stones, how can they care about the Buddha beads?

It can be seen that the nature of the profession is different, and the concept must be different.

In any case, after receiving this gift, Wang Guan was also satisfied, and continued to listen to Wu Gang's talk about the historical relics of Burma, and after more than half an hour, he returned to another wool warehouse.

At this moment, I have finished reading what I should see, and I have picked out what I should have picked. Seeing Wu Gang come back, Jia Qin and the others must have greeted him, and expressed their gratitude. After some greetings, it happened that Wu Gang asked someone to handle the admission pass for everyone was also delivered, and Wu Gang enjoyed the treatment of holding the moon with stars.

After reading the wool, picking out the gifts, getting the admission pass, everyone returned with a full load. I also can't wait to see if there is any jadeite in the stone I chose.

Singing and triumphing all the way, everyone returned to Liu Huaen's mansion, and then began a round of exciting stone dissolving process.

This time, Wang Guan no longer joined in the fun, but sat next to him and carefully watched the eighteen Arhat Buddha beads. I saw that each Buddha bead was dark red, not precious red coral, but painted with red lacquer.

However, it may have been through decades of wind and rain, and the red paint is also slightly cracked. The speckled texture makes the Buddha beads a little more simple and natural.

At the same time, Jia Qin came over to drink water, and after looking at the Buddha beads, she suddenly frowned and said, "You don't pick wool, you want this thing?" ”

In other words, I also feel that Wang Guan did not grasp the opportunity, which is really a big loss.

"I'm also preparing for tomorrow."

Wang Guan chuckled and said, "My fortune is very strong, and I can't waste it easily." Now that I have a string of Buddhist beads, then my luck is going to burst, and when the time comes, I can buy a stone casually, and it is estimated that I can also solve the jade. ”

In this regard, Jia Qin sneered in her heart, and didn't bother to pay attention to Wang Guan, and continued to devote herself to calcite.

Seeing this, Wang Guan also shook his head gently. It stands to reason that gambling stones are actually similar to the identification of antiques, which are to clear the fog and find the ultimate truth through the method of cutting through the cocoon.

However, Wang Guan always can't raise the interest of gambling stones, and it is estimated that there are two reasons. One is that he really doesn't understand, and the other is that if he doesn't understand, he can't help but cheat, what's the fun in that?

Therefore, instead of playing with stones, it is more interesting to study Buddhist beads.

Declare in advance that until now, Wang Guan has not opened a plug-in, but with the keen sense of experience, he found that the feel of the Buddha beads is different. This difference in weight does not mean that the Buddha beads are very large, so they are a little pressing. On the contrary, Wang Guan also felt that such a huge Buddha bead only had this little weight, which seemed to be light.

"Is it a suspicion that has been missed too much, or is there really something strange?"

Wang Guan pondered in his heart, and then held the Buddha beads high, and carefully observed the details of each Buddha bead by the afterglow of the sunset, and gradually gained a little bit, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

At the same time, not only he has gained, but other calcite people are also happy and worried.

People with good luck and good eyesight naturally picked up good materials and directly solved the jadeite. Regardless of the quality of the jadeite, it is a good omen in the first place, and it must be a happy eyebrow.

Of course, there are also two or three people, whose eyesight is not good and unlucky, and they pick up the wool and cut it down, which naturally makes them feel devastated, and their depressed mood has been written on their faces. People with good luck must have comforted them and told them not to be superstitious, tomorrow is the main event, and it is a good opportunity to turn the tables......

In the midst of all the disturbances, another day passed. There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, everyone packed up their belongings, had a full meal, and then went in the direction of Gongpan in high spirits.

At the same time, there are also many people on both sides of the road who are in a hurry, and they should also be businessmen who go to the public market to participate in the bidding. Wang Guan also knew in his heart that in the next few days, until the end of the public market, I am afraid that many people will have trouble sleeping...... (To be continued.) )
