There are more people buying jade, and the price of jadeite naturally rises year by year. Moreover, as we all know, jadeite is a non-renewable resource, and due to too much excavation, it has begun to show signs of depletion.

So even if the price of jadeite is very hot now, to the point where flowers are brocade and cooking oil on fire, there are still people who are willing to buy and collect, and feel that there is still room for appreciation. Coming and going, tourism and buying jade have become Tengchong's characteristic projects, which naturally attract a large number of tourists and customers to come here to consume.

Moreover, now that it is autumn, it can be regarded as the peak season for tourism, and after arriving in Tengchong, Fang Yuan and others can be regarded as seeing the bustle and prosperity here. On the streets, pedestrians are bustling, trafficy, and endless, which has a bit of a festive meaning.

"It's so lively." Bao Longtu sighed, looking left and right, with an excited face. Mainly on the streets, the most popular shops are not food or housing, but jewelry stores.

On a street, large and small jewelry stores are lined up, densely packed with dazzling colors. At a glance, the various lights in the store are shining, and the pearls and jadeites in the transparent glass cabinets are full of brilliance, which is very gorgeous and magnificent.

Not only are there many jewelry stores here, but there are also many people visiting jewelry stores. Among them were men and women, young and old, either alone or in groups. All in all, at the entrance of every store, there is a situation of crowds.

All kinds of noises come and go, and they converge in the air to form a rolling sound, and the hot air is full of temptation, which makes people's hearts float and restless, and they can't help but join the huge shopping army.

Compared with. Fang Yuan was still calmer: "Don't be in a hurry to see the excitement, go to the hotel to settle down first." ”

"What are you afraid of, you know we're coming. King Cunyu must have arranged a qiē. Bao Longtu said lightly, and this is also true.

While wandering around the street with a group of people, a young man about thirty years old suddenly walked over, took a closer look at Fang Yuan, and then asked, "Is this Mr. Fang?" ”

"I am." Fang Yuan nodded.

"Great." The young man smiled: "Mr. Cun has already arranged a hotel for you, please come with me." ”

As expected, Bao Longtu doesn't think it's any different. Just curious: "How can you be sure that we are coming here today?" ”

The young man smiled slightly and explained, "As early as a week ago. Mr. Cun has already ordered us to disperse and wait at various street corners in the city. As long as I saw Mr. Fang coming, I immediately greeted ......"

"No wonder." Bao Longtu nodded and chuckled, "King Cunyu is too sincere. I'm embarrassed to refuse. Right. ”

"That's right." Fang Yuan also nodded simply: "Then follow along." ”

At that moment, under the guidance of the young man, the crowd walked around the jewelry street, walked for a few minutes, and came to a nearby hotel. The decoration here is good, and the most important thing is that it covers a wide area, with rockeries and flowing waters, pavilions and pavilions.

Although it is located in the middle of the city, it enters the interior of the hotel. But it's something else. Lined with greenery, painted and carved beams. The corridor has nine songs, directly blocking the hustle and bustle in the city, leaving only a quiet atmosphere.

Walking through the corridor, the small bridge is babbling, and you can even see small birds with green feathers flying on the branches, but it gives people a feeling of returning to nature.

Such a hotel is undoubtedly the best place to stay. But under the leadership of the young man, Fang Yuan and the others drove straight into it unimpeded, and came to an independent courtyard briskly.

The independent courtyard is divided into three floors, a retro-like small building, not only scattered with more than a dozen rooms, but also elegantly furnished living room, study, tea room, it can be said that everywhere exquisite, beautiful.

Such a layout is estimated to be several times more expensive than ordinary people's housing, and it is extremely luxurious.

After everyone settled down, the young man smiled again: "Mr. Fang, Mr. Cun already knows the news of your arrival, he has already rushed over, please wait......"

"Coming here?" Fang Yuan immediately turned around and said, "Steamed buns, prepare tea, and entertain guests!" ”

"Got it...... everyone sorted out the tea set, and Cun Fusheng really came.

Accompanied by a group of people, Cun Fusheng walked in with a smile on his face, and greeted happily: "Master Fang, welcome to Tengchong as a guest, it is no wonder that he failed to greet him in time." ”

"We are presumptuous, Mr. Cun is more forgiving." Fang Yuan said politely, after all, on other people's territory, they should abide by the etiquette of guests. Anti-customer-oriented, absolutely idiotic behavior.

After some hustle and bustle, everyone sat down in turn, and Bao Longtu also made tea.

The tea is Pu'er tea, and the Baolong picture is just a clear bubble, but the color of the soup is very beautiful, and the aroma is also very strong. After he poured a glass for everyone, he took a sip of the cup himself, and immediately praised: "It tastes very mellow, it seems that my craftsmanship is good." ”

"It's good tea." Fang Yuan pouted and said, "It has nothing to do with your craftsmanship. ”

Bao Longtu was not convinced, turned his head and asked: "Jade King, you come to judge the theory, is this good tea, or my craftsmanship is good?" ”

"It's good to have both." Cun Fusheng was very tactful, and he couldn't offend the two, and then changed the topic: "By the way, Bao Xiaoyou, today an old friend of mine has a birthday, and a banquet is held in the evening, I don't know if you are interested in attending." ”

"Your friend's birthday banquet, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for us to go." Bao Longtu hesitated.

"There's nothing wrong with it, the more people there are, the more lively it is." Cun Fusheng smiled and said: "Besides, my friend, Bao Xiaoyou should know, his surname is Duan, Duan Shengcai's Duan ......"

"Ahh When Bao Longtu heard this, his body shook, and his eyes widened a little: "Duan Yuwang? ”

"Everyone loves him, and that's what they call him." Cun Fusheng said with a smile: "Today is his eighty-second birthday, and it is the centennial celebration of the opening of the Shengcai, so we have to celebrate it grandly." Not only the feast, but also a series of events, which are sure to be very lively. If you're okay in the evening, you might as well join me and have some fun. ”

"Yes, yes." Bao Longtu didn't think about it, he nodded directly and agreed, and as if he was afraid that Cun Fusheng would regret it, he hurriedly asked, "When will we leave?" ”

"Don't worry, it's still early." Cun Fusheng said with a smile: "You must be very tired after a long journey, it is better to rest for a few hours first, and I will come to pick you up in the evening." I also have to prepare some congratulatory ceremonies, so I can only miss it. ”

"It's okay, you have something to do, let's get busy first."

After saying goodbye, everyone sent Cun Fusheng away and returned to the courtyard.

At this time, Fang Yuancai asked curiously: "Baozi, what is the matter with the Duan Yuwang you just mentioned?" Isn't there only one Jade King, how can there be another? ”

"As soon as you hear this, you know that you are a layman, and you are unheard." Bao Longtu said: "Who sued you, the Jade King can only have one?" Obviously, there are several good ones. ”

"How many?" Fang Yuan was stunned, feeling very unexpected: "Really fake? ”

"What are you lying to do?" Bao Longtu popularized science: "You must know that since the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Yunyun jade has become a royal tribute. The top is good, and the people below naturally follow suit. Suddenly, jadeite, which was not very valuable, immediately became a sought-after commodity and became popular all over the world. ”

In this case, some businessmen naturally seized the opportunity to make a fortune with jadeite and became a big man. There are several characters among them, who have followed the trend and become the famous Jade King! ”

Bao Longtu enumerated: "For example, Mao Yingde, Zhang Baoting, Cun Zunfu, Li Benren, Duan Shengcai, etc., are all famous jade suppliers, known as the Jade King!" ”

"That's a lot." Fang Yuan was surprised: "It's a bit of a flooding trend." ”

"What kind of flooding, you don't want to think about it, there are only a handful of characters in the past three or four hundred years, which is very few." Bao Longtu defended: "Besides, there are five famous jades in Tengchong, which are famous, like thunder, everyone knows it, and no one knows it." If you don't know, you don't know. ”

"What are the five famous jades?" Fang Yuan admitted his ignorance very calmly.

"Qiluo Jade, Duan Jiayu, Zhenkun Jade, Guansi Jade, Cun Jiayu." Bao Longtu talked eloquently: "Needless to say, the Cunjiayu is the signboard of the Cunyu King Fushenglong Firm." In ancient times, there was a family of jade, and now there is a jade of the Cun family, which was the supreme praise of the world at that time, and even listed it as the first of the five famous jades, so that we can also know the status of the jade in the minds of the world. ”

"Well, I know this, you mentioned it before." Fang Yuan nodded and said, "Then what is the origin of the remaining four famous jades?" ”

"The origin is legendary." Bao Longtu sighed with emotion: "I'll talk to you about Duan Jiayu first!" ”

"...... you say" Fang Yuan leaned on the sofa, drinking tea, leisurely preparing to listen to the story.

"It is said that during the Republic of China, a jade merchant named Duan Shengcai bought back a piece of wool of more than 300 catties from the jade field, hoping to make a lot of money. Who knows that everyone has seen it and thinks that the wool is white and flowery, and it is all fog, and it is definitely not a good color, so no one is willing to bid. ”

Bao Longtu looked nostalgic: "The wool can't be sold, Duan Shengcai was angry, and simply threw the wool at the gate of the yard as a stepping stone." The visitor tied the horse at the door, and after a long time, the wool was kicked off by the horse's hooves and a piece of skin was peeled, and it showed a very crystal clear little green dot. ”

Duan Sheng noticed this situation, and hurriedly took the wool to grind, and immediately found that the wool of Baihuahua was actually a high-grade jade with outstanding water color. Glass water, and there are clouds and mist of floating blue flowers, after making a bracelet, it is very transparent and beautiful, just like green fish grass floating in the clear water, very lovely. ”

Bao Longtu sighed: "Duan Shengcai decomposed the jade into more than 400 pairs of bracelets, and once it was launched on the market, it immediately caused a sensation. ”

"Due to the effect of celebrities, in a very short period of time, all these bracelets were sold out, and Duan Jiayu's reputation also spread, and he became famous at home and ......abroad" (to be continued......
