Chapter 2 The Jade Pendant of Primitive Man
Su Ling Zhai is an old store dealing in jadeite and Hetian jade jewelry, and it is also well-known in the thrift market. When Li Yi was an intern in his junior year, he was introduced by his fifth uncle from the jade factory in his hometown and came to the store to help with odd jobs for a few months. After the internship, the relationship has not been put down, and this kid always has to run here twice every once in a while, and he is familiar with a few people in the store.
There was no business at noon on weekdays, Wang Hezheng was bored playing with a Hetian seed jade, and when he saw Li Yi coming in, he was energetic.
"Come on, Xiao Li, look at the store for my brother for a while, and my brother will go down and take a look at the excitement."
"What's the excitement?"
"I heard that a piece of glass has just opened in the first district, and people from several major jade companies have rushed over at this time, how can he leave my old man's house for such a big thing, right? No, I'll have to take a look. ā
Li Yi turned around directly on the spot,
"There's still such a big buzz, I can't miss it......"
"Hey, brother! Brother! Hey, you're my uncle! Just for a while, for a while, I'm also looking for the market for the store, isn't it ......"
Wang He got out of the counter as soon as he bowed, pulled Li Yi to babble nonsense for a while, and then ran away like a rabbit.
Li Yi didn't care, slowly paced to the reception area, made a cup of strong tea, Shi Shiran sat down, and said that he seemed to be a little full at noon......
"Yo, where is Wang He? Where did this rabbit go? ā
Halfway through a cup of tea, a middle-aged man with gray hair, thin cheeks, and sunken eye sockets walked in, it was Bai Qianye, the owner of Su Ling Zhai. Li Yi hurriedly stood up,
"Brother Wang is in a hurry to go to the toilet, let me take care of him for a while."
"Okay, don't cover for him, just now a glass seed was opened in the first area, this kid is going to join in the fun, right? You said that these thirty people are not as stable as Xiao Li, a recent graduate......"
Wang He is Bai Qianye's brother-in-law, so as long as he doesn't make a big mistake, Lao Bai can only turn a blind eye, and if he says too much, he may be in danger of kneeling on the keyboard when he goes home.
After a few words, Bai Qianye walked to the reception area, gently put the small package in his hand on the table, and said:
"Come on, help Uncle Bai clean up."
"Just received?"
Li Yi was no stranger to this scene, he opened the package, and saw that there was a pile of small pieces of jade with dirt inside, so he picked a relatively clean one and rubbed it slowly in his hand.
"It was just dug up from the ground in Xishan, but I don't think it's reliable......"
Bai Qianye took out a basin, a brush, and a soft cloth from the hut next to the counter, walked to Li Yi and put it down, and then picked up a jade pendant and looked it up and down.
"Haven't found a job yet? I don't think you should look for any job, just go back to your hometown to organize a batch of Dushan jade sources, and let Uncle Bai sell it here, isn't it better than anything else? ā
Li Yi shook the jade jue in his hand in the water, and then wiped it with a soft cloth while shaking his head and said:
"Supply? I want to organize, but unfortunately I don't have the money! I don't have to worry about work, a senior brother introduced me to the treasure lecture hall in the alley in the south, I calculated, how can I have an income of 10,000 yuan a month, ride a donkey to find a horse, do it first. ā
Bai Qianye frowned, he put down the work in his hand, and muttered:
"Xiao Li, there is a sentence I don't know whether to say or not."
Li Yi didn't know what was going on, and when he saw that Bai Qianye was a little solemn, he put down the jade jue in his hand and said:
"Uncle Bai, if you have anything, just say it, the kid only has gratitude."
"Well, you studied jewelry appraisal, and you want to mix in this circle in the future, so it's best to stay away from Wang Fatzi and them."
Bai Qianye paused, and then said:
"Is there a preferential policy in his treasure appreciation lecture hall, is that what...... How many times does each student have the opportunity to ask the instructor to accompany him? ā
Li Yi nodded, the students of the Treasure Appreciation Lecture Hall, in addition to attending classes, also have three opportunities to purchase antiques accompanied by designated lecturers, which is a major feature of the lecture hall and the most powerful weapon to attract students.
"Actually, it's like a tour guide fooling tourists, leading you to a partner store to shop...... Regardless of whether it is true or not, it is just that the price is a matter of opinion. If you still want to mix in this industry, you can't ruin your reputation, and when this issue is over, just quit. I'm really short of money, come and show Uncle Bai a shop, so I can ensure that you have a bowl of rice to eat. ā
Li Yi was silent for a while, smiled and picked up the jade jue and wiped it,
"I said I felt a little unreliable, so that's what happened...... Those so-called big leaks are all trusts, right? ā
Bai Qianye nodded,
"People nowadays, for money, can do anything."
The two cleaned up the jade pieces while communicating, and after a while, most of them were cleaned up, but most of them were old things and had little value.
"It's a god, this is a god!"
Li Yi took out a square jade pendant from the basin, carefully wiped it a few times, and suddenly screamed, startling Bai Qianye.
"What's wrong? What treasures did you find? ā
Li Yi wordlessly handed the jade pendant to Bai Qianye, Bai Qianye glanced at it, and laughed angrily,
"Put it away for me, and I'll settle accounts with that bastard of Huazi when I go back!"
"Uncle Bai, do you think this thing could be primitive......
I can't go on halfway through the joke, because even if this thing was carved by a primitive person, it must have been done by a primitive person who traveled to modern times!
The jade pendant is engraved with a villain, and the original character is also a very popular theme, but this one on the jade pendant is a little too different.
The villain on the jade pendant only used a total of six knives, two knives on the head, one knife carved an almost round circle, this is the head, and the other knife drew an arc in the circle, which is considered a mouth. There are also two dots on the top of the mouth, which are the eyes.
The remaining four knives form a "Jie" character, which is placed under the circle and is considered the body of the villain, and the whole shape is almost exactly the same as the villain in the children's stick figure tutorial!
It's a prank!
This kind of collected goods were originally good and bad, and neither of them took the jade pendant seriously, and casually discussed a few words about the conscience of modern people, and then packed up the next one. After a while, thirty-two pieces of jade ornaments were cleaned up, not all of them were scraps, but they still found a round dragon and phoenix jade pendant, and the knife work should be a work of the late Qing Dynasty. Looking at Bai Qianye's expression, Li Yi pondered that if there was such a thing, probably this bag of things would not lose money.
Seeing Bai Qianye put away the jade ornaments in different categories, Li Yi picked up the primordial jade pendant that he had just thrown on the table, and said while rubbing the lines on it with his thumb:
"Uncle Bai, how much does this jade pendant cost? I see that the thickness of this piece of material is okay, and when I turn back, I polish it flat, and then carve something else, which can be regarded as practice. ā
Bai Qianye waved his hand absently,
"Take it and play, little kid, tell your Uncle Bai about money......"
Li Yi smiled, and was not polite, and directly put the jade pendant in his pocket. It's not that he is greedy, but the jade pendant has aroused his curiosity. The material of this jade pendant looks like it should be green and white jade, but whether it is Russian material or Qinghai material, it needs an electric carving knife to leave such a deep trace on it, and it can be seen that the lines that make up this villain are obviously left by ordinary carving knives, and he feels that it is necessary to study and study.
After chatting until more than three o'clock, Li Yi got up to say goodbye, he wanted to go to Wang Fatzi to resign directly, and he thought that it was good to see and understand, anyway, in this issue, it should not be bad.
Back at the rental house, Li Yi took out the ridiculous jade pendant and studied it.
After carefully looking at the texture and grinding it repeatedly with his fingers, Li Yi was sure that he was still looking away. This piece of jade is not Qinghai or Russian, but a real piece of mountain water.
Mountain flowing water refers specifically to Hetian Yushan flowing water. Hetian jade is generally divided into mountain materials, mountain flowing water, Gobi materials and seed materials, the texture of Hetian jade seed materials is the best, followed by Gobi materials, and then mountain flowing water, mountain materials.
The primary ore produced at high altitude of Hetian jade mountain material is rolled down to the foot of the iceberg by natural factors, and is carried and washed by natural denudation and debris flow, rain and glacier, and becomes a mountain water material, and the local people generally jokingly call it "the mother of mountain water material is the mother of seed material".
After observing for a while, Li Yi put down the jade pendant, dragged out a wooden box from under the bed, and took out a natural diamond manual scribing pen and a stone carving knife from it.
Picking up the diamond marker and making a comparison, Li Yi decided to try it with a stone carving knife first, after all, what is needed now is to flatten the villain, not to add new lines on it.
He did not use tools to fix the jade pendant, but fixed it with one hand and dried it directly.
Hold your left hand firmly and use your right hand horizontally, and then push harder......
"Damn!"
Li Yi scolded angrily, grabbed the napkin on the table and covered it on the tiger's mouth. It may be that I haven't practiced for too long, and just now I carved the knife and the saddle uĆ n You called the quality of the father to carve the ship to be bad
After dealing with the wound, Li Yi picked up the jade pendant and wiped the blood stains on it with paper, and then found that such a hard knife failed to leave a trace on the jade pendant.
"It shouldn't be......"
When Li Yi was about to try again with the fixed tool, he suddenly found that the jade pendant slowly emitted a layer of misty white light, and then, the white light slowly spread, wrapping his entire left hand in it, and then the lines on the jade pendant that constituted the villain were slowly dyed with a layer of faint red, and finally, in his surprised gaze, the entire jade pendant seemed to melt into the air and slowly disappeared little by little......
