Because of its special origin, tree jade can be passed down for a long time, and its original stone retains most of the biological characteristics of the tree, such as shape, skin marks, knots, growth rings and wormholes.

After the initial washing and grinding, it presents a very different jade texture, which has a glazed luster, and strokes it is warm and greasy, creating a world of enlightenment.

The beauty of tree jade lies in its shape like wood but not wood, like jade but not jade; Its colors are colorful and the weather is myriad; Its quality is colorful and colorful, warm and greasy; Its nature is generous and tough, simple and tranquil, the pure monochrome is slightly clear, and the complex color is full of color, which makes people dizzy and fascinated, giving people visual enjoyment.

As far as Liu Yuhao knows, the formation of tree fossils requires extremely harsh geological conditions, and the formation of fossils by paleontology is only 1 in 10,000, and the probability of forming "tree jade" is even smaller.

And because of its special and complex formation, it transforms into a thousand strange forms, or it can be seen that the piano platform is leisurely, the high mountain wall stands, or the waterfall and the spring can fly, the tiger roars and the dragon sings in the image of thousands, the shape is peculiar, the shape of heaven and earth, people, animals, fish, insects, flowers and birds has everything in the "tree jade".

Etik's legs and feet were quite neat, and he followed behind numbly, hehe laughed dryly, and said: "Mr. Liu, Mr. Zhang is the chief appraiser I specially invited back to serve the company, if there is any misunderstanding between you, I advocate that harmony is precious, what do you think?" ”

Looking at what he said, there was a bit of grievance in the negotiation, which can be said to have given Liu Yuhao enough face.

In the UK, appraisers play an important role in auctions.

Although appraisers in the UK do not require professional recognition, anyone can call themselves an appraiser, or an appraiser for a particular type of work. However, this does not mean that the auction appraisal is child's play.

Every appraisal made by the appraiser is legally responsible, and in the auction, the appraiser is required to describe each work, and every word he says at this time will have legal effect.

At the same time, the auction catalogue should be jointly produced by the appraiser and the auctioneer, and every word on the catalogue will also become the legal basis for the auction.

The position of the chief appraiser is even more important!

The law stipulates that the legal liability of the auction appraiser is limited to 10 years from the date of the buyer's lawsuit. Within 10 years, if the buyer can prove that the appraiser's appraisal was wrong, the auction house will have to compensate the buyer for the loss.

It can be said that if a chief appraiser makes a mistake or "deliberately" buries a small hidden danger for the company, it can almost affect a major turn of fate in a company ten years later.

In recent years, under the general trend of oriental art heating, Baolong Auction has gradually shifted the focus of its business to Chinese antique objects, in order to invite Zhang Wei to the company, Etick has put a lot of thought into it.

It's no wonder that Etick will try his best to reconcile the contradictions between Liu Yuhao and Zhang Wei, one is the strategic development shareholder, and the other is the chief appraiser, with meat on the back of his palms and hands.

As soon as the two met, they looked at each other angrily, which made Etik embarrassed!

You must know that Etick is an old Dongfang Tong, and he has thought twice before speaking, and he comes forward to act as a "reconciliation person", which not only considers Liu Yuhao's face, but also ensures that Zhang Wei will not have any ideas because of this.

And what they say makes sense!

Since Liu Yuhao is also a shareholder of the company, he can't abandon the company's interests because of personal grievances!

But Etik never guessed that Liu Yuhao was not rare in money, and it was his daughter who was rare.

Liu Yuhao sneered and said: "Mr. Etick, I have my own measure in this matter, you don't have to worry about it, I guarantee that Zhang Wei will work for Baolong obediently, and he will not dare to make any moths." ”

"Uh, this"

Etick was stunned, staring at Liu Yuhao with a stunned face, very inexplicable.

The appraiser is a free body, and he can leave whenever he wants, not to mention, Zhang Wei is older than you and has deeper qualifications than you, why do you kid speak wildly and let people listen to your arrangement?

Etick really couldn't figure it out, and after eating Liu Yuhao's deflated, he looked quite displeased.

Liu Yuhao didn't want to deal with Etik at all, smiled slightly, and said: "Mr. William, you are all treasures, I really didn't expect to see such a huge amount of tree jade in the UK." ”

According to Liu Yuhao's estimates, there are about 8,000 catties of Shuhua jade in the warehouse, even in any place.

"Are these tree jades valuable?"

William immediately realized the mystery in Liu Yuhao's words, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he waited anxiously for Liu Yuhao to get an explanation.

Liu Yuhao was stunned for a moment, laughed, and said, "Mr. William, you don't even know the value of these tree jades, right?" ”

"Mr. Liu, I really don't know."

William's face turned red, his face suddenly became embarrassed, he shook his head, pointed to the dusty jade wool in the depths of the warehouse, and said with a wry smile: "I always thought that those stones were what the Oriental people called jade, and these things were forcibly matched to me by the merchant who sold jade jade to me back then." ”

"Is there such a thing?"

Liu Yuhao asked in surprise, his eyes re-examined the number of spectacular tree jade, his brows jumped a few times, and then asked, "Mr. William, when did you buy these tree jades?" ”

Although he didn't have the ability to inspect the inside of those tree-turned jade wool, Liu Yuhao could already see the colorful ice apple green jade flesh from the outside of one of the cracked materials, and there was a piece of wool next to it that should be able to solve Mo Lan's big material.

Although these tree-shaped jades belong to the hall ornaments after processing, if they are modified by jade carving masters, they are also very imposing, creating a sense of spiritual and fugue meaning heaven and earth, how could they be forcibly sold to William.

William rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Fifteen years ago, when I had just graduated from college, I heard others say that there was a magical jade in the East that was very beautiful, so I ran to buy some in a daze. ”

Liu Yuhao nodded and said with a smile: "Mr. William, although I don't know at what price you bought back these tree-shaped jades back then, I can tell you for sure that the value of these tree-shaped jades has now risen dozens of times. ”

"So much?"

William's mouth was wide open, and he looked incredulous.

He obviously didn't expect that he would accidentally make a small fortune by mistake.

If it weren't for the fact that William had a warehouse to store wool in Baolong Auction, these tree jades would have been discarded by him as waste a few years ago, but now, Liu Yuhao actually told him that their value had climbed dozens of times, which was too surprising to William.

Liu Yuhao smiled and said: "Myanmar is currently the country with the most unearthed tree jade in the world, and tree fossils can be picked up near Yangon and Bagan area, and even on the roadside. ”

"Yes, that's what I bought in Myanmar."

William didn't know what to call those tree jades, so he had to replace them with the word "thing".

Although tree fossils are also extremely valuable biological fossils, the preciousness of tree fossils has been neglected due to the excavation of a large number of tree jade in Myanmar.

As far as Liu Yuhao knows, in Myanmar's Mandalay Province, Sagaing Province and Magway Province, as well as Natuki County and Malan County in Mandalay Province, the most tree-shaped jade has been unearthed and the quality is also the best.

Liu Yuhao said with a smile: "Mr. William, do you know the legend of the tree turning into jade? ”

"Well, sir, until now I don't know the origin or legend of these things."

William replied honestly.

Liu Yuhao pursed his lips and smiled, and slowly told the story of Shuhuayu to William.

Once upon a time, there was an endless dense forest with high-quality hardwood species such as rosewood and redwood.

They gather the aura of heaven and earth, collect the essence of the sun and the moon, the tree has deep roots, lush branches and leaves, and the towering trees that are hundreds or even thousands of years old can be seen everywhere.

Myanmar is a Buddhist country, and all living beings, including the grass and trees in this area, will lose no time in listening to the sound of Zen, listening to the Buddha's teachings, and looking forward to cultivating the Tao and having a vajra body

Especially those rare trees that are quite spiritual, they will nod or dance frequently in the recitation of Buddhist scriptures, and the trees sway rhythmically, one after another, like a song of heavenly sound, it is so beautiful and beautiful!

One day, on behalf of all the big tree families, the Tree King made a sincere request to the Buddha for the opportunity to go to the Western Elysium with the Buddha.

The Buddha said that your cultivation is still short and you do not yet have the conditions to ascend to heaven, but if you can persevere and persist in cultivation under any conditions, you will have an immortal body with a life that transcends time and space.

Finally, the day has come when the Buddha will test them. The Buddha ordered the Dharma Protectors to do so, and gave them a near-devastating blow.

Suddenly, the sky thundered, thunder rolled, the sky darkened, torrential rain poured down, landslides cracked, and glaciers grabbed stones and threw them into the forest.

For a time, the towering trees were smashed to separate their roots, trunks, and branches, and were swept away by the mountain torrents, and buried deep in the sediment, so that they were isolated from the fresh air, and the sun, moon and stars could not be seen, and they were in boundless darkness

However, in the face of adversity, they still insisted on listening to the sound of Zen and remembering the Buddha in their hearts. Billions of years later, the boulders that covered it weathered, and the animals buried in the forest, including the giant dinosaurs with huge bodies, did not escape their doom and turned to dust, and the roots of the trees on the surface were long gone.

At this time, only the branches of the big trees buried deep in the ground and regained the light of day, they are not only like phoenixes in the flames, they have been reborn, and their lives have become more brilliant and brilliant! Its brand-new image is like wood but not wood, like jade but not jade.

Let's say it's wood, but wood doesn't have its hardness, its colorful colors and crystal clear charming figure; Let's say it's jade, but it has the rings of trees and the simple vicissitudes left by the years on the branches

To be precise, it is the jade of the tree, the tree of the jade, and the treasure of the world with spirituality!
