"This is amber?" Xu Ru was surprised.

Yi Yang nodded and said: "Yes, this is amber, but your old ornament is beeswax to be exact, beeswax is a kind of amber, generally speaking, the transparent one is called amber, the opaque one is called beeswax, we call it beeswax, and foreigners directly call it opaque amber." If you look closely, this thing is as colored as honey and as light as wax, and that's how it comes from. ”

"I see!" Xu Ru nodded suddenly in realization.

Amber knows what it is, it is a natural resin fossil that has evolved into a natural resin secreted by conifers from 40 million to 60 million years ago, buried deep in the ground through changes in the earth's crust.

It's just the first time Xu Ru has heard the term "beeswax", she used to think that the old antique left by her grandmother was a yellow jade, but now when she heard Yi Yang tell the origin of that thing, she finally became enlightened.

I only heard Yi Yang continue to explain: "This kind of beeswax is very promising, it has been regarded as a precious treasure since ancient times, it has always been a treasure that dignitaries and nobles compete to collect and play, Chinese medicine believes that beeswax has the effect of calming the mind and helping sleep, it is also one of the seven treasures in Buddhism, it is regarded as a mascot by Buddhism, and it is a great fate to be able to collect such a good piece of beeswax!" ”

"Hearing you say that, I suddenly remembered, you are right, it is indeed the case!" Xu Ru said with a smile, "When my grandmother was here, she kept this beeswax next to the bedside in the bedroom, and she said that the faint fragrance of this thing always made her sleep well." At the time, I thought it was just her psychological effect, but I didn't expect this thing to have a good effect on treating insomnia. ”

"Yes." Yi Yang nodded solemnly and said, "The texture of beeswax is delicate, the tentacles are warm, and the heart is hot, so according to medical theory, it is best to have at least one piece of beeswax in a person's life, which is used for pleasure, beauty, disease prevention and treatment, and physical and mental cultivation."

"Beeswax can be called one of the five treasures of traditional Chinese medicine, after wearing it in the hand, it can relieve rheumatism and bone pain, nasal allergies, stomach pain, high blood pressure, skin sensitivity, etc., "Compendium of Materia Medica", "New Dictionary of Chinese Medicine", "Materia Medica" and so on are recorded in detail. After wearing, the body will slowly absorb and run through the blood to the whole body, eliminating the disease. However, beeswax has different effects according to its different regions, different colors, and different varieties. Your beeswax is so big, of course, it is inconvenient to wear and carry it with you, but you can put it in your living place and calm your mind with peace of mind. ”

These things are all things he has seen from related books, and he has a good memory, and he remembers them very clearly.

In fact, this thing is very coincidental, not long ago their pawn shop received an old beeswax, but the beeswax is very small, it is a small piece, compared to Xu Ru, it is really a small thing.

At that time, he learned a lot about beeswax from Li Deguang, and he looked up a lot of information afterwards, so he knew it very well and could come in handy.

"yes, I see." Xu Ru hurriedly nodded and agreed, "You see I locked it in the cabinet in the study, it's a waste, fortunately, with your guidance, I will make good use of it in the future." Oh, by the way, by the way, how much is this beeswax ornament worth? ”

Yi Yang replied: "As I said just now, your old beeswax is worth a lot of money, and the collection value is very high. ”

"How many are there?" Xu Ru asked.

Yi Yang didn't answer the rhetorical question, and said, "Miss Xu, you don't want to sell this beeswax, do you?" ”

Xu Ru shook his head and replied, "No, I'm just curious, and I want to inquire." ”

"Oh, is that so?" Yi Yang nodded and said, "According to my estimate, this beeswax will not be less than one million ......."

"A million?! It's so valuable?! Before Yi Yang finished speaking, Xu Ru was surprised and said with a smile, "Is this true?" ”

"Of course it's true." Yi Yang said very seriously, "This kind of thing is rare, the key is that your beeswax is not only in good condition, but also very old, and it is precious." ”

The beeswax they received from the pawnshop that day, Li Deguang estimated it to be worth more than 100,000 yuan, and this piece was at least ten times more than that piece, and its price was millions no matter what, only more, not less.

"That's great!" Xu Ru patted her chest excitedly and said, "Thank God, I fortunately didn't sell it that day!" You don't know, a few friends came to play with me that day, they saw my beeswax, one of them asked me to give it to him, he gave me 80,000 yuan, I was a little moved, because I thought this thing didn't seem to be very useful, and it wasn't very beautiful, I didn't like it, so I wanted to let it go to my friend, give it to him to play, but I thought that this was left to me by my grandmother, it has great commemorative significance, and finally rejected him, although I decided not to sell it, but I was very curious, I just wanted to find a master to help me identify it, I can determine the price so that I can value it more. Now I finally know what it is, and I know what it's worth. Mr. Yi, you have done me a great favor again, hehe, you appraise antiques for me, should I pay you the appraisal fee? How about giving you a red envelope? ”

Her last words were naturally a joke, but Yi Yang shook his head very sternly and said, "How can I ask for your appraisal fee?" It's a help, just a gesture. Miss Xu, you can put this thing away. We'll have to go to the jewelry store to return it to you later. ”

"yes, okay." Xu Ru agreed, and then she put away the million-dollar old beeswax.

Then she found the bill to buy the ruby necklace and walked out of the rental room with Yi Yang.

When the two of them drove straight to an old jewelry store in the center of the city, they found the store manager, explained the situation, and the store unconditionally agreed to return the goods, and sincerely apologized.

"Miss Xu, I'm really sorry, this is our negligence, I never thought that this necklace would have this problem!" The gentle and elegant store manager Lin apologized vigorously, because he knew Xu Ru, but the other party was their old customer, who brought them business from time to time, if she was unhappy, then she would lose a group of customers who were willing to spend money in the future.

Xu Ru said calmly: "Mr. Lin, there is nothing to be done if it is broken." Can you give me a new one? The same will do. ”

"Hey, I'm sorry." Store Manager Lin sighed and said, "Miss Xu, we only have such a ruby necklace of this specification in our store, this is a limited edition, and it is estimated that there are only a few pieces of national treasure jewelry in the jewelry market, after all, such a large Burmese ruby is rare, it is very rare." ”

"Can you order it?" Xu Ru asked again.

Store Manager Lin shook his head helplessly and said, "This can't be, we can't get the goods." ”

"Oh, aren't there any other ruby necklaces?" Xu Ru'e asked with a slight frown.

Manager Lin replied: "Yes, there is, but the others are not as good as this quality, why don't you take a look at it first, if you fancy which one, you can choose, the price will be more favorable." ”

Later, he took Xu Ru to see the rest of the ruby necklaces in the store, but Xu Ru was not optimistic, and in the end he had to give up in a huff.

The original price of the ruby necklace was 180,000 yuan, and the jewelry store returned it to Xu Ru, and before bidding farewell to them, Store Manager Lin also gave Xu Ru a souvenir in order to show his sincerity.

After walking out of the jewelry store, Xu Ru said happily: "Mr. Yi, no matter what, thank you very much." Your eyesight is so good, you have found such a small problem, if you didn't help me find out the fault in time, then I really can't get rid of it after wearing it for a long time. ”

Yi Yang smiled: "It's just a coincidence." When you buy this kind of thing in the future, you should take a magnifying glass and look at it carefully, so as not to have any flaws. ”

"Well, I will." Xu Ru nodded very obediently and agreed.

In addition to being overjoyed, Xu Ru wanted to invite Yi Yang to have another meal, but Yi Yang said it first, he said that there was something to deal with, and Xu Ru wanted to drive him over, but he said that he was running errands around here, so Xu Ru said goodbye and drove away.

After seeing Xu Ru's car drive away, Yi Yang turned around and plunged into the jewelry store.
