Chapter 21: The Dead?

Shen Qingcheng saw that Uncle Zhong seemed to be discouraged, and cautiously replied to Uncle Zhong's words.

"My master loves to smoke blue cigarettes, so under the influence of my master, I followed my master and occasionally smoked one on weekdays."

Uncle Zhong looked at the blue cigarette in his hand again and again, "Hey...... I used to have an old man who also liked to smoke this, but unfortunately things are wrong, and I lost contact with him. ”

Old man again?! Shen Qingcheng put a question mark in his heart, do so many old people love to smoke blue cigarettes?

Uncle Zhong saw that he had gone off topic, and looked at Shen Qingcheng and Ouyang Jie apologetically. "By the way, you just came here to buy my glow-in-the-dark cup, right, can you pick a good one?"

Ouyang Jie said to Uncle Zhong with a humble face, "My side may be more demanding, my father supported the third line in Dunhuang back then, and later went abroad by fate, over the years, my father has missed every scene and thing in Dunhuang, especially for the luminous cup, he has always wanted me to pick out a good color for him to take back as a souvenir." ”

Uncle Zhong glanced at Ouyang Jie twice, mainly because he heard Ouyang Jie introduce that his father had supported the third-line construction, and he said to Ouyang Jie very gratefully, "Over the years, it was really hard for your father and them." Not to mention the difficult conditions, they had to overcome difficulties to complete the assigned tasks, which benefited our local people, and we admired the staff of the third-line construction very much. ”

Ouyang Jie didn't expect Uncle Zhong to respect the third-line construction personnel so much, which surprised him.

"Uncle Zhong, my father said that they are contributing to the country, and they are moving bricks wherever they need it." Ouyang Jie repeated what his father had said.

Uncle Zhong gave Ouyang Jie a thumbs up in awe, "They are all heroes. ”

Cao Yanyan saw that Uncle Zhong chatted first, she was afraid that Uncle Zhong would talk endlessly after a while, so she was busy reminding her loudly.

"Uncle Zhong, the experts just arrived in Dunhuang today, you see that you still introduce your luminous cup to them, everyone is here for your luminous cup."

After Cao Yanyan said this, Uncle Zhong was a little embarrassed, "What, I'll take you out four cups, you can see which one you want." ”

Shen Qingcheng and Ouyang Jie glanced at each other, after all, they were all laymen, and they nodded to Uncle Zhong hurriedly.

When Uncle Zhong went to the back room to get the luminous cup, Shen Qingcheng asked Cao Yanyan on the side. "Miss Cao, I don't know if you know who the old man mentioned by Uncle Zhong just now?"

Shen Qingcheng regretted a little as soon as he said it, after all, it seemed inappropriate for him to inquire about Uncle Zhong's old man like this.

"You said that the two of us are about the same age, you call me Miss Cao, are you a little rusty?" Cao Yanyan replied to Shen Qingcheng.

Bai Yu saw Cao Yanyan teasing Shen Qingcheng again, and grinned beside him, "Yanzi, shouldn't you have taken a fancy to our Xiao Shen, haven't you been close to us along the way?" ”

Bai Yu's words just fell into Uncle Zhong's ears, Uncle Zhong took four boxes in his hands, and Shen Qingcheng hurriedly stepped forward to help Uncle Zhong take two when he saw this.

"Expert Bai, what did you just say, saying that Yanzi fell in love with Expert Shen? I'm afraid I can't, this swallow has a high vision and a big heart, I think her true destiny hasn't appeared yet. ”

Uncle Zhong looked at Cao Yanyan like a half-immortal, then at Shen Qingcheng, and added. "You're not playing."

Shen Qingcheng buried his head in embarrassment, while Cao Yanyan blushed because of what Uncle Zhong said.

The atmosphere was a little tense for a while, and Bai Yu saw that there were two experts next to him, Zhou Qingyang and Ouyang Jie, and a cold scene was always not a way to be hospitable.

"Uncle Zhong, I think we still get back to the truth, you first tell us about the differences between these four luminous cups." Bai Yu controlled the field and drew everyone's attention back to the luminous cup.

Uncle Zhong pretended to cough lightly, "These four luminous cups, you touch them first, and I'll tell you about them slowly." ”

Shen Qingcheng, Bai Yu, Ouyang Jie, and Zhou Qingyang each took out a luminous cup and watched it carefully.

After taking a closer look, the four of them put the four cups in front of the table and lined them up in a row, and looked at them carefully.

"Uncle Zhong, these four cups don't seem to be a terrestrial jade, and their fineness also has its own merits." Shen Qingcheng spoke first.

Shen Qingcheng usually has to come into contact with some jade materials when carving Buddha statues, so he understands more than Bai Yu, Zhou Qingyang and Ouyang Jie who were present.

Seeing that Shen Qingcheng seemed to see some clues, Uncle Zhong hurriedly continued to ask Shen Qingcheng, "Expert Shen, then tell me what kind of jade materials these four jade materials are made of?" ”

Shen Qingcheng looked at everyone, nodded humbly and told everyone.

"Uncle Zhong, I also got an axe in front of you. Before that, the earliest one to put on the Bogu shelf was Qilian Mountain jade, this is the jasper of Manas, this is the Bozhou Tianshan blue, this is the Hetian ink jade, and this is the colorful jade of southern Yunnan. ”

Shen Qingcheng explained all the materials of the four luminous cups in one go, so that Uncle Zhong couldn't help but give Shen Qingcheng a thumbs up.

"Expert Shen, you are really a knowledgeable all-rounder, I originally wanted to make it difficult for you, but I didn't expect that you would say that the color and material of these cups are exactly the same."

Shen Qingcheng didn't expect that he just said it casually, he felt bottomless in his heart, but he didn't expect that after he said it, Uncle Zhong would praise him.

Uncle Zhong picked up the colorful jade luminous cup in his hand and looked at everyone, "This is carved from the colorful jade in southern Yunnan jade, the cup has a thin wall, and it also has colorful moire, and it will emit a colorful halo under the moonlit night." ”

Then Uncle Zhong picked up the Hetian ink jade in his hand again, "This is carved from Hetian's black jade, and its cup wall is transparent, and it has good light transmission to the moon." ”

"This is Bozhou's Tianshan green, which is produced in Xinjiang, and the texture of Tianshan green is also very special."

"This is the jasper of Manas, the origin is also in Xinjiang, and the light transmittance of the jasper is also good."

"Finally, I still want to talk about our Qilian jade, Qilian jade is a variety of green, light green, emerald green, dark green, white and filter color, the structure is dense, subtle, bright and soft, the hardness is 4 to 7 degrees, its carved products are delicate, moisturizing, and translucent. Therefore, it is an excellent raw material for the luminous cup material. ”

Ouyang Jie exclaimed from the side, "Oh my God, if I pick it myself and put these five cups together, I really don't know which one is the best." Now after Uncle Zhong's introduction, I found that each has its own merits. ”

Zhou Qingyang was also very teachable and praised Uncle Zhong, he didn't expect that he was here to accompany him to buy a glow-in-the-dark cup, but he didn't expect to take a jade class.

Although Bai Yu came to Uncle Zhong's shop for the second time, it was the first time he had heard Uncle Zhong speak so thoroughly, and he also praised Uncle Zhong on the side.

Shen Qingcheng's expression became even more solemn after looking at the five glow-in-the-dark cups of different colors......
