Chapter 0235: Ancient
Originally, he planned to visit Gu Gu tomorrow, but Xue Lang didn't expect Yu Lei's actions to be so crisp, and there was nothing left to study in the jade carving factory, so he decided to visit Gu Gu immediately and lift the fog that had already revealed a corner.
went to see the ancient, he didn't let Yu Lei and Lu Jin participate, because it was not a big deal, let a few people continue to collect all the information about the jade carving factory, even if he didn't study it, it didn't mean that he would throw away the jade carving factory and ignore it.
He drove the Maybach to the car dealership, parked the car nearby, carried a hiking bag, rented a Hyundai, and went straight to the small workshop where he found the information.
This will, he believes that the ancient should be there, and if he is not, then study and go to his house.
Although Dongjiang City is not a port city, it is still very prosperous, the urban planning is very regular, and the greening is also in place.
With the help of navigation, Xue Lang followed the traffic all the way, and on the streets of late autumn that still belonged to the south, he moved forward steadily, and it took more than forty minutes to reach the edge of an industrial zone located on the edge of the Third Ring Road.
I stopped the car, looked at the surroundings, took out the map and carefully compared it, turned off the navigation, and slowly drove the car into the small street photocopied by the green trees.
After walking for about a kilometer, Xue Lang saw the target he was going to, in the clean open space surrounded by an iron fence, an ordinary brick house.
Obviously, this place is still remote, there are no developers targeting here, and it is next to the industrial park, and it may not be easy to sell residential buildings.
Otherwise, these old brick houses have long since disappeared, and how can they still be stored in the bustling city?
After glancing at it and confirming the target, Xue Lang drove along the gravel road, which was only rutted and clean, and there was low grass in the middle of the road, until he reached a simple big iron gate.
Before he got closer, he unexpectedly saw a Lamborghini parked in front of the door, so he pulled over and plunged into the grass that was not high to avoid blocking the road of the luxury car.
As soon as he stopped, a door to the bungalow was opened, and then an old man led a middle-aged man in his forties all the way to the door.
Xue Lang's ears, even if they were dozens of meters away, from the rolled open car window, they could hear the conversation between the two with a quarrelsome tone.
It turned out to be a digging man......
After a few words, Xue Lang understood.
The guy who felt was from a jade carving company, and he came to invite a few old people, but he was kicked out.
Xue Lang opened the car door the moment the guy was pushed out of the door, picked up his hiking bag and walked towards the door.
The guy didn't give up, and made a final effort to say: "Old man, you see, our company is strong, and the treatment is not low, if the monthly salary is less than 100,000 yuan, you can put it forward......"
The old man didn't seem to have a good temper, so he closed the iron gate and shouted through the fence-like iron gate: "Get out! I'll break your dog's leg again! Lakh? A million don't go! ”
"Look at your ......"
That guy still doesn't give up, and still wants to lobby.
The old man seemed to be impatient, picked up a wooden stick erected by the door, opened the iron gate of the fence and shouted, "If you don't get out, I'll break your dog's legs!" ”
"Good...... Don't be angry...... Don't be angry......"
The man saw that his posture was not good, and he said while retreating, then turned around and got into the Lamborghini, and the moment the old man rushed in, he turned around and ran.
Before leaving, he shouted without giving up: "You think about it again......"
The old man waved the stick in his hand and shouted, "Think about a fart!" A bunch of crumbs! ”
Xue Lang stood there and watched this drama, and his heart beat a drum.
The old man's temper was really explosive, it was not a matter of force, he was worried that he would get into trouble if he invited someone.
One million a year, which is said to be a lot, but these masters don't look down on them at all, and they are not afraid of offending people, so they actually take turns to drive people away.
The old man waved his stick twice, and only after the car had gone far did he turn around and walk into the iron gate.
When passing by Xue Lang, he glanced at him with an unkind face, and he didn't pay attention to it, so he closed the door with a bang.
Xue Lang saw that this was the rhythm to go, took a step forward, and said with a smile: "Old man stays." ”
"What's the matter?"
The old man glared at Xue Lang, and if he hadn't been able to see what he was doing, he would have thrown off his sleeves and left.
Xue Lang smiled and said, "Old man, let me ask, is the ancient here?" ”
The old man's eyes widened, but he didn't answer, but asked, "What are you doing?" What's the matter with him? ”
Seeing that it should be there, Xue Lang smiled: "Old man, I have a different purpose from the person you drove away just now, I am here to find my roots." ”
"Roots?"
The old man looked at Xue Lang suspiciously, not knowing what he meant by searching for his roots.
Xue Lang knew that he should be Xie Lao, although he was older than the photo in the information, he could still identify it, so of course he wouldn't take out something in front of him, so he said: "I am Tenghuamin from Songjiang Province, Songjiang City, entrusted by someone to find my roots, and I must see the ancient." ”
This old man is none other than Xie Lao, one of the Lingnan jade carvers, and he is also sixty-one years old. Hearing this, he looked Xue Lang up and down, feeling that Xue Lang's face was very ordinary, and he didn't look like a treacherous person, so he hesitated and said: "Boy, if you dare to play any tricks to deceive me, be careful that I'm not welcome!" ”
As he spoke, he shook the wooden stick in his hand.
Xue Lang smiled and said, "Don't worry, old man, after I visit the ancient, the ancient will let me leave, and I won't say a word."
Xie Lao looked at Xue Lang again uneasily, and then opened the iron door and said, "Come in." ”
Xue Lang nodded politely, entered the door and followed Xie Lao to the bungalow.
Before he could enter the door, Xue Lang heard a squeaky cutting sound.
It turned out to be a workshop......
Sure enough, as soon as the door opened, there was a workshop with several large and small cutting machines, and inside a figure wearing overalls and covered with stone powder, was concentrating on cutting a stone.
Next to him, there were five or six old men standing, all dressed in the same way and with the same attentive expression, and no one even looked at Xue Lang when he came in.
Xue Lang had never seen a calcite before, and when he saw that it should be a calcite stone, he took a step forward, stood on the side, and looked fixedly.
Xie Lao saw that Xue Lang didn't make any special moves, and he didn't disturb the person, standing next to Xue Lang, he had the meaning of a bodyguard.
Even if Xue Lang stood on the side, he couldn't see his face clearly, and only the gray hair meant that he wasn't too young. And there are also goggles that cover most of his face, making it even more difficult for Xue Lang to see his face clearly.
The man was concentrating on cutting, his squeaky voice was steady and fine, without the slightest murmur, and his hand was obviously very steady.
As the stone powder flew, the cutting blade slowly cut into the stone, and as the water poured on, the stone powder turned into stone slurry, and the cutting sound was much quieter and less harsh.
Xue Lang watched quietly, not knowing what the result would be if this knife was cut out.
Gambling stones, he just heard Huo Jianye talk about it, but he never participated in it and never saw it. But this will, but I can't suppress the nervousness in my heart, I don't know if this knife will cut out the sky-high jade.
Because, the stone that the man was carrying, he looked good-looking, elephant skin, old pit material. It's just that there is moss on it, so he can't judge whether it will penetrate into it, destroy the jade inside, and become waste.
Seeing that it was half cut, suddenly, Xie Lao took half a step forward, and shouted with surprise on his face: "It's up!" Rose!! ”
His voice was loud, but the man who cut the stone was still the same, cutting steadily, without the slightest wave. The old men next to him didn't move, and they didn't even look at Xie Lao.
However, as soon as his voice fell, the two doors on the left and right of the workshop were pushed open, and then a few old men walked in with vigorous steps and good spirits.
Xue Lang just looked up and saw that all the old men in their fifties and sixties were wearing blue overalls, and he turned his gaze back to stare at the football-sized stone that was about to be cut.
Those old men also glanced at Xue Lang, so they didn't pay much attention to it, and stood directly to Xie Laomian's side, and one of them said, "Old Xie, you dog ears, soaring?" What's the material? ”
"Glass species!"
Lao Xie said without replying, and then stared at the stone that was about to be solved, waiting for the final color to come out, before he knew how high the rise could be.
Xue Lang was shocked, although he was a layman, he also knew that he could hear what the material was when the cutting machine was cutting, and this ear power was amazing.
Sure enough, after cutting off a piece, as soon as the cutter stopped, an old man splashed half a basin of water. As the water washes away, a patch of green appears on the cut surface of the stone.
"Ordinary glass onion heart green! It's a big up! ”
Old Xie danced and shouted excitedly.
Green ......
Xue Lang looked at the facet and understood that this kind of green is called green onion heart green, looking at the facet and estimating that the jade inside is not small, at least it is the size of a fist, although I don't know the geometry of the ordinary glass species, but it is estimated that there are millions of dollars.
However, the scene was just Xie Lao, and everyone else said a few words, and it was over when it went up, and there was not much excitement.
The old man who cut the stone was also calm, and even when he saw the green, he was still not too excited. Maybe I've seen too much, or maybe it's because this kind of material is not worth excite.
After reading the facet, the old man took off his goggles, took off his gloves, threw them to Xie Lao and said, "Old Xie, wipe them out." ”
"Okay!"
Lao Xie excitedly took the gloves, took the goggles, and was just about to put them on, when he suddenly remembered Xue Lang, so he pointed at Xue Lang and said, "Old Gu, this kid said that he was looking for you, and he said that he was looking for his roots." ”
Only then did Gu look at Xue Lang.
Xue Lang also saw the whole picture of the ancient world clearly, and felt that although this person was not a master, he was a master, at least he was in good spirits, his eyes were bright, and he couldn't see the old state at all.
Seeing that Gu Gu looked over, Xue Lang nodded with a smile and said, "You are so ancient, I am Teng Huamin from Songjiang City, entrusted by someone to find my roots, is it convenient to talk alone?" It doesn't take you long, just a few minutes. ”
Gu didn't speak, nor did he ask, but turned his head to look at the stone that showed a piece of green, then at Xue Lang, nodded unexpectedly and said, "Let's go." ”
As he spoke, he got up and left, quite simply.
Xue Lang didn't hesitate, and walked outside the workshop after him.
As soon as Xue Lang moved, two more old men followed, and the four of them entered a room one after another.
As soon as he entered the room, Xue Lang knew that this was a simple office, with an old-fashioned office desk and an old-fashioned wooden chair, but it was definitely not in the category of cultural relics, but it was just a little old.
Gu went straight to the desk and sat down, pointed to the chair and said, "Anyway, look for roots, what roots?" ”
The other two old men sat next to Xue Lang, obviously wary of Xue Lang's thoughts.
Xue Lang didn't care, turned around and put down the mountaineering bag, took out Apaid, clicked on it, and handed it to Gu.
Gu Hu took it suspiciously, then his eyes were empty, he looked up at Xue Lang and asked, "Where have you ever seen this thing?" ”
Xue Lang smiled again, reached out and took Apade, turned to the next page, and pushed it again.
Gu Gu took a look, his eyes widened instantly, and then he didn't use Xue Lang's hand, he turned the pages by himself.
The other two old men didn't look over, and still sat there, seeming to have no curiosity.
Xue Lang didn't squeak or move, just watched quietly.
After reading seven or eight pages in a row, when the end was gone, Gu raised his head and asked, "Can you tell me where did you see this?" ”
Xue Lang smiled slightly, nodded and said, "At my friend's place, he is also the client who came here to find his roots. ”
The ancient eyes widened instantly, his hands propped up the table, his buttocks left the chair, and he asked in surprise, "What you see is the real thing?!" It's all there?! ”
Xue Lang nodded and added: "The ancient cold mountain shepherd is indeed extraordinary, a masterpiece, a masterpiece!" ”
Gu Gu didn't listen, still staring at Xue Lang and asked, "Are these all there?" ”
Xue Lang nodded affirmatively.
Call......
The ancient sat back, exhaled a long breath of turbidity, and his eyes were in a trance.
For the first time, the other two old men saw that the ancient man was so uncalm, although his eyes were full of greetings, but no one asked.
Xue Lang took Epaid with his hand, closed the page, clicked on the other one, and pushed it to the ancient.
Gu blinked his eyes, took a look, looked at Xue Lang again, flipped two pages casually, looked up at Xue Lang, and didn't know what he meant.
Xue Lang understood the doubts in Gu Gu's eyes, and hurriedly reached out to take Apade's eyes, and smiled apologetically: "I'm mistaken, I'm sorry." ”
Subsequently, I clicked on another text, opened it, looked at it and confirmed it, and then pushed it to the ancient.
After Gu took it, his expression was strict, and he looked at it one by one, and some even had to look at it for a minute or two without saying anything, but he turned over a few of them, and then turned them back and rewatched them, as if he didn't see them and didn't understand them.
Xue Lang was completely confused.
Gu Gu looked at the nature of those who belonged to the Lingnan jade carving school, which made Gu so shocked, and then, he unexpectedly handed the photo of Xue Feng's front and side to Gu, if Gu knew it, the subtle change in expression would definitely not escape his eyes.
It's a pity that under the impact of a huge surprise, Gu Gu has long been defenseless in his heart, but when he sees the photo, he is full of doubts, even if he stares at the first face for two seconds, he still doesn't know the expression.
Xuefeng has such a relationship with Lingnan jade carving, and I don't know each other in ancient times, so who is Xuefeng?
Thinking about it, Gu Gu stopped looking at it, and slowly sat up straight and asked: "Young man, these stones are good-looking, most of them are the materials of the old field, in my eyes, there is no shortage of excellent jade rough stones, these, are also your friend's?" ”
Xue Lang looked at the ancient, and didn't see any special reaction to those huge rough stones, but he looked at it from a kind of judgment or appreciation, and he hadn't seen the surface of these stones, could it be that the original stones were not from the Lingnan Jade Carving Factory?
Xue Lang will feel that his head is not enough.
It is said that the carvings are the fine works of the jade carving factory, so many jade rough stones, how can it not be a personal collection, it should obviously be the raw materials of the jade carving factory.
If you want to say that the small pieces of rough stones are not easy to remember, many of them are the same, but huge, and they look so good, and even one of them is transparent, if you have seen it, you will definitely not show it xiàn out, it is a sky-high item! Especially the master of jade carving, when he saw such a large rough stone, there was no one who did not think about his own carving.
But the ancient reaction, except for appreciating and identifying, did not reveal the look of having seen it, which shows that these huge rough stones have never been seen in ancient times.
The things that were judged before were overturned, and Xue Lang was a little confused.
At the moment of the ancient inquiry, Xue Lang retracted his thoughts, smiled and said: "Ancient, this is a small part, and there is a large part, the total number is more than five thousand yuan, the smallest one is also the size of a fist, and the largest one you have seen, it is enough to have more than ten tons." ”
Gu didn't speak, still looking at Xue Lang, because Xue Lang didn't answer his question.
Xue Lang paused, and then said, "These rough stones were all accumulated by my friend, and they are now in his hands. ”
Gu Gu knew that this would be the result, his expression did not fluctuate in the slightest, and asked: "Young man, you are only in your thirties, so don't go around in circles with my old man, look for roots, are you here to find the origin of these carvings, or is there another purpose, let's talk about it." ”
Xue Lang glanced at the two old men sitting next to him and smiled.
Instead of answering, he turned around and took out two boxes from his hiking bag.
As soon as the two sandalwood boxes, one large and one small, were taken out, the ancient and the two old men leaned forward slightly, and their eyes were firmly fixed on the box.
Xue Lang even saw that Gugu's hand on the table was shaking, obviously, the three of them all knew what was in the box.
Xue Lang pushed the box in front of Gu Gu and said, "Gu, you can open it and watch it, this is what my friend explained before he came, I will leave after you finish reading." ”
Gu didn't seem to hear what Xue Lang said, picked up a towel at hand and wiped his hands, then took a deep breath and slowly opened the smaller sandalwood box.
As soon as the box was opened, Xue Lang noticed that the three old men were all breathless.
The ancient eyes stared at the box for a while, before he reached out and took out the dragon and phoenix jade cup inside.
"It's been a few years, and I finally see ...... again"
The ancient muttered, and his eyes couldn't leave the cup.
The other two old men were the same, their eyes couldn't leave the cup in the ancient hand, and the excitement on their faces couldn't be suppressed.
Xue Lang knew that in their eyes, this cup was not a relationship of money, but technology, jade material, and a masterpiece of their genre.
Xue Lang looked at Gu Gu motionlessly, observing the change in his expression, and measured in his heart, if he was invited, he would be a little sure.
Gu watched it for four or five minutes, turning over and over, looking at every place carefully, as if it was learning, as if it was remembrance.
After a long while, he reluctantly put down the cup, solemnly closed the lid of the box, glanced at the other two old men, withdrew his gaze, and slowly opened the big sandalwood box.
This time, the ancient steady hand trembled, and Xue Lang's eyes were sour when he looked at it.
This kind of excitement is so contagious, and it is indescribable to explain a kind of emotion.
Half a sound, Gu Gu breathed deeply, steady love, and waited for the love to ease, and then took out the golden dragon inside......
Xue Lang looked at the eyes of Gu Gu and the other two old men staring at the golden dragon, and his heart was sudden.
How can this feeling be the same as the rush of some believers to see the holy relics of this religion, people who are dozens of years old, and there is even a glint in their eyes that they want to bow and worship, and their piety is greater than shock.
Xue Lang understood why Xue Feng said that with these two things, it was enough to invite the ancient them.
Looking at their state, Xue Lang estimated that even if they signed the deed of sale, there would be no problem.
For more than ten minutes, the room was quiet only the heavy breathing of the three old men, and the six eyes never left the golden dragon.
After a long time, Gu Gu slowly put the golden dragon into the box, carefully closed the lid, took two deep breaths and said, "How did your friends get these?" Could it be that the Lingnan jade carvings were all secretly purchased by him? ”
Here it comes!
Several speculations were overturned, and the ancient words made Xue Lang happy, if this is correct, it will be able to explain some problems, so he hurriedly said: "Ancient, don't you know the final destination of your Hanshan shepherd carving?" ”
Gu shook his head unexpectedly and said: "These were originally in the secret warehouse of the jade carving factory, after Jianye escorted back a batch of jade rough stones from Myanmar, these carvings disappeared from those glass cabinets, I asked, Jianye said that it was bought, and I don't know who it fell into, thinking that I will never see these fine products again in this life." ”
Get......
Xue Lang shook his head depressedly.
Things seem to be right, they have been in the jade carving factory, but they were not occupied by the doves and snatched by tricks, but were bought by someone, after all, Huo Jianye still understands Xue Lang when he speaks, and he is very reliable.
Besides, if you lose it, you won't report it? This jade cup, this golden dragon, all of them will exceed 100 million, and even the set of high-grade glass imperial green wrench Guanyin tags are not something that a hundred million can block.
The clues are all gone, Huo Jianye is dead, and there is no place to find who it ended up in. As for Huo Jianhua, he has always been a fictitious title, he has no real power, he can't reach the height of managing the secret vault at all, and in the jade carving factory, he is not even as good as the ancient status.
The old didn't know, and he didn't know it anymore. Even if they are brothers with Huo Jianye.
Xue Lang took a deep breath and didn't speak again, but reached out and grabbed the sandalwood box, with the posture of fulfilling his promise and leaving.
As soon as his hand was pressed on the box, Gu suddenly reached out and pressed his hand and asked, "Young man, are you here to let us old bones move around?" ”
