In the end, Liu Lao asked again: "How is Zhu Hanyue's situation now?" ”

Chu Chen's expression was a little heavy and said, "It's not good, I estimate that her body may not be able to hold up for half a month." ”

I don't know if it's because of the fetters in my heart, or because the disease is developing rapidly, during the period after Zhu Hanyue went home, her physical condition has deteriorated, which can be seen from the fact that she can still talk for two or three hours, and now she feels unable to speak for more than ten or twenty minutes.

This feeling of the patient's life constantly passing in his own hands made Chu Chen feel very uncomfortable. Of course, this kind of thing must be unavoidable as a doctor, but it was only the first time Chu Chen encountered it that he was so sad.

When Liu Lao heard this, he sighed and said, "This girl is also a poor person, I hope I can calm down when I leave." ”

Chu Chen said: "Yes, now I give her acupuncture twice a day to try to make her less painful." ”

"And when are you going today? Will it be too long for me to delay? Liu Lao asked.

"How can you?" Chu Chen waved his hand and said, "I treated her last night, and according to her physical condition, she should be able to do it at least until noon." ”

"Okay, I don't have anything to do, you take these materials back, just go over."

"Okay......

Chu Chen put the information given by Liu Lao back home, and drove to Zhu Hanyue's house to treat her. However, today, Zhu Hanyue's physical condition is even worse, and he is a little out of breath even after saying a few words, and his body is already strictly unable to support it, and he will continue like this. Chu Chen estimated that it had only happened in the last two days.

Zhu Hanyue noticed Chu Chen's worry that he had carefully concealed, and instead comforted him. She has already seen it, and birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature. Let Chu Chen not have to think about it.

Seeing Zhu Hanyue fall asleep again, Chu Chen's mood was very heavy, this feeling of watching Zhu Hanyue leave was really powerless, and Zhu Hanyue was just an elder he hadn't known for a long time, what if it was his relatives and parents?

Thinking about it, Chu Chen couldn't imagine it, and this also strengthened his determination to find Wang Mang's treasure, no matter how likely there was a relevant prescription in that treasure, even if there was only one possibility, he would try his best to find it.

It's just that. No other clues were found, and the person who collected the waste was nowhere to be found, which was like a good woman who was difficult to cook without rice, no matter how remote the place where the treasure was hidden and how complicated the terrain was, with Chu Chen's current ability, there was a way to reach it, but now let alone the location of the treasure. There are no relevant clues, how can he find them?

Because he was not in a good mood, Chu Chen called the museum and heard that the equipment had not yet arrived. He decided to go to an antique shop that he hadn't been to for a few days.

There was nothing wrong all the way, Chu Chen parked the car and walked towards his antique shop. Because of his thoughts, he kept his head stuffy when he walked, and he didn't pay attention, and collided with a middle-aged man in his forties who came out of the market.

"Ouch!" I only heard the middle-aged man cry out in pain. One of the packages in his hand also fell to the ground due to the impact, and there was a heavy "poof" sound. It is estimated that if there are fragile items inside, the results may not be ideal.

Seeing this situation, Chu Chen said sorry in his mouth, but he was thinking in his heart, he wouldn't meet someone who touched porcelain, right? There is no way, although he encountered this situation once some time ago, and the other party did not mean it, but over the years, whether he heard about it or encountered it himself, the probability of touching porcelain is greater.

Especially the distressed appearance of the middle-aged man looked really exaggerated, which made Chu Chen feel that there was something wrong with him.

The middle-aged man opened the package with a nervous face, and when he saw the contents of the package, he looked like he was about to cry.

I saw that the package contained a piece of jade, the material should be green jade, the jade is not small, it looks like it should be twelve or thirteen centimeters in diameter, but the jade is now torn apart, as for whether it fell like this just now, I can't see it for a while, but it is very consistent with Chu Chen's judgment just now.

"This ...... What can I do......"

It's just that what surprised Chu Chen was that the middle-aged man didn't directly ask for compensation aggressively, but looked at the broken jade, looking very distressed and confused.

Seeing this situation, Chu Chen was a little puzzled whether this person's appearance was true or false, but even if the man didn't touch porcelain, it wasn't the same thing that they had been standing here, so he asked, "This gentleman, I don't know how you want to solve it?" ”

The middle-aged man came back to his senses, and he was a little embarrassed and embarrassed: "This little brother, I didn't pay attention to this matter when I walked by myself, and it has nothing to do with you." ”

When Chu Chen heard him say this, he also felt a little embarrassed, and the middle-aged man didn't look like he was acting, so he said: "I was also distracted when I was walking just now, and I am still somewhat responsible for this." Why don't you show me what you have in your hand, and determine the value of the thing first, and then we'll talk about the rest later. ”

The middle-aged man was very happy, and handed the things directly to Chu Chen, anyway, the things were broken, and he was not so particular, so Chu Chen took the things in his hands casually.

This is a relatively ordinary piece of scrolled jade, the carved lines are smooth, the carved lines are round and natural, from the style point of view, the time of making zuò should be in the middle and late Qing Dynasty. Because the material of the jade bi is relatively ordinary, and the carving work is not outstanding, the current market value of such jade is not more than 500 yuan at most.

Chu Chen raised his head, and was about to tell the middle-aged man the result, when he saw that the other party was a little surprised and excited, and asked, "Please...... Excuse me, are you the teacher Chu on TV? ”

Chu Chen smiled: "If you are talking about Chu Chen, then it should be me." ”

"Chu ...... Teacher Chu, I didn't expect it to be you, I ...... Can I shake your hand? The middle-aged man seemed very excited, and his speech was a little unclear.

"Absolutely."

Chu Chen smiled and stretched out his hand, and the middle-aged man hurriedly wiped his clothes with both hands, and then shook hands with Chu Chen excitedly and respectfully, and introduced himself, and said some compliments.

After a brief chat, Chu Chen said: "Mr. Qiang, I have seen this piece of jade, the thing is real, but it should be a relatively popular thing at that time, and the value is not high." ”

Qiang Youwan said with some pity: "I know this, if this thing is not relatively ordinary, I can almost sell it just now, and it won't be like this." ”

Chu Chen said: "No matter what, this jade is still somewhat valuable, otherwise, I will pay you two hundred yuan." ”

"No! No way! This thing is estimated to be able to buy a good one for 200 yuan, how can you lose so much? ”

Qiang Youwan waved his hand again and again to express his disagreement, and finally only accepted fifty yuan from Chu Chen.

Now that the matter is over, Chu Chen said goodbye and prepared to go back to the store. At this time, Qiang Youwan stopped him, mysteriously took out a jade artifact from his pocket, and asked cautiously and quietly, "Teacher Chu, are you interested in this?"

Chu Chen just thought about what Qiang Youwan had in his pants pocket, but he didn't expect it to be a jade. However, Qiang Youwan's appearance still made him think a little too much, this person wouldn't be so polite if he wanted to buy this jade artifact, right?

This thought flashed in Chu Chen's mind, he looked at the jade in Qiang Youwan's hand, except for looking a little dirty, the carving or something looked relatively old, not very like a fake, and it seemed that the possibility of a set was relatively small.

"It seems that my psychology is a little dark."

Chu Chen laughed at himself, and said to Qiang Youwan: "Mr. Qiang, this is not a place to talk about things, let's go to my store and talk about it in detail." ”

"Yes, you can ......"

Next, Chu Chen took Qiang Youwan to the reception room of the antique shop, and the people in the store were all there, but there was only Zhou Wenping below, and everyone else was upstairs admiring an antique brought by Zhao Xueyi.

Chu Chen was also quite curious about what Zhao Xueyi brought, so he didn't say any nonsense, and directly picked up the jade and looked at it.

This jade is actually a cylindrical jade with a green jade texture, and the dirty part of the surface is actually Tuqin. The middle part of the jade cong is slightly drummed, the shape of the vessel is not very round, the wall of the vessel is slightly uneven, and there are traces of knocking off the pass at the bottom edge of the borehole, which can be seen that the tool should be relatively old.

The inner wall of the jade cong is light, and the outer wall is decorated with the face pattern of the three gods. The god man has a round face, half-moon-shaped ears and curved eyebrows, sunken eyes, a wide nose, and an open mouth, which is terrifying.

On the whole, this jade is quite fine, smooth to grind, and looks very glossy, beautiful and moist. What made Chu Chen feel even more solemn was that this jade cong was not unexpected, it should be a product of the Qi family's culture.

The Qijia culture is a culture from the late Neolithic to the early Bronze Age in the upper reaches of the Yellow River. Among them, the ancient jade of the Qi family is a wonderful flower in the world of jade culture in China, with a wide variety, exquisite production, different shapes, and gorgeous and colorful. Although there are many unique characteristics of art and craftsmanship, on the whole, it has not departed from the shape and charm of China's jade culture, and reflects the cultural characteristics of China everywhere.

And this point is also well reflected from the jade cong in front of him. In addition, due to the fine pondering of jade in Qijia culture, coupled with the fact that it is located on the Loess Plateau, the climate is dry, and the thick loess preserves the jade well.

Like this jade cong, although there are a lot of Tuqin on the table, it still looks very, very beautiful. Moreover, thanks to the creation of nature, the color of the surface of the jade is also very rich, the skin shell is natural, the pulp is plump, the luster is quiet, and the color is gorgeous. It should belong to the fine art of Qijia cultural jade.

Of course, Chu Chen was very satisfied with this kind of jade, and he said: "Mr. Qiang, I want this jade, I don't know how much money you plan to sell?" (To be continued......)
