Chapter 42: Valuable Stones

The eyes of the Yuxi Daoist made Ye Jinyu's heart suddenly, could this Yuxi Daoist see that there was something extraordinary about this seal.

"This is bloodstone?"

Carefully picked up the Xuantian True Martial Seal from the table, this seal has a feeling of warmth like warm jade in one hand, and the Yuxi Daoist is also well-informed, but he has never had this feeling on the bloodstone, and he doesn't know if it's an illusion, or if this square seal has some strange effect.

The Taoist chief didn't delve into it, but just held the seal and looked left and right with his face sideways.

"Fresh, condensed, thick, everything is good, it is indeed bloodstone, and the blood content is still the best red robe in bloodstone. It is rare to use such a large piece of the best bloodstone to engrave it. ”

Look down carefully, only to see that the four sides of the seal are finely carved with some ornaments, although they are extremely small, but they have a unique charm. Against the backdrop of the blood-red material, the lines came to life like flames, and the four directions converged together, with an indescribable charm. Turning over the text of the seal again, it is something that is ghostly drawn, obviously a rune text, at least with Yuxi's knowledge, I just didn't understand what was engraved; Yuxi knew that this must be the inheritance of the person who engraved the seal, so he didn't dare to look at it more; Turning the conversation to India itself:

"Not to mention this material, the carving of this big seal alone is rare in the world, but I don't know which famous hand."

Ye Jinyu saw that the Yuxi Daoist was still talking a moment ago, and suddenly picked up the seal, he thought something had happened, but the Yuxi Daoist didn't look at the content of the seal at all, but was just amazed at the material of this jade.

This seal was given by the national teacher, and Ye Jinyu never thought about what kind of material it was; After listening to the words of Daoist Yuxi, he asked curiously, "Bloodstone?" What is this? ”

"Ye Jushi doesn't know?" Yuxi was very surprised, he thought that Ye Jinyu knew the value of this seal; However, looking at Ye Jinyu's blank face, he knew it in his heart and explained: "This bloodstone is a kind of stone used for seals and craft carving, and it is juxtaposed with Shoushan stone, Qingtian stone, and Bahrain stone, and it is the four major stones of our country. In addition, it is also known as the three treasures of the stone with the Qingtian light frozen stone. In recent years, due to the mining of Tianhuang, the price of several other stones has risen, and the market price of bloodstone is even more enduring because of the limited production. ”

"It turns out that the material of the seal is so valuable, I don't know much about this, this seal was given to me by a Taoist leader." Ye Jinyu told the truth, and asked again: "Then how much is my seal worth?" ”

Someone actually gave such a large bloodstone seal to this Ye Jushi, it was really a pearl secretly cast; If others get such treasures, they are afraid that it will be too late to take care of them, how can they throw them away like Ye Jushi, and they are not afraid of bumping into them; As everyone knows, it is too easy to gain, and it is easy to lose it.

Daoist Yuxi thought so in his heart, but he said:

"The mining of bloodstone began more than 2,000 years ago, but the making of seals began in the Song and Yuan dynasties, and flourished in the Ming and Qing dynasties; In the early years, bloodstone was not worth much; When China and Japan established diplomatic relations, the first prime minister presented a pair of Changhua bloodstone medals named "Red Cloud Map" as a national gift; Later, when the President of the United States visited China, the central government sent a bloodstone seal. The move sparked a bloodstone collecting boom in Japan and Southeast Asia, as well as in the Dumb Bay region. ”

"After the 90s, the economy of the mainland began to exert strength, and people became richer and richer, and this bloodstone collection became more and more popular. I remember that in '08, there was a bloodstone seal that sold for 8,000 yuan, but after only five years, the seal increased eightyfold. Some time ago, I heard that there was a pair of 2.5×9 cm "big red robes" that sold for more than 3 million. ”

Speaking of this, Daoist Yuxi stroked the Xuantian True Martial Seal and said, "As for the big seal of several catties on your side, two or three million should be able to find a buyer." How? Does Ye Jushi want to sell this seal stone? ”

Two or three million!! Ye Jinyu was very shocked, among the few things that the national teacher gave him, the most valuable thing was actually this big brick weighing several catties; When he heard Yuxi ask if he could sell it, Ye Jinyu hurriedly shook his head and said, "I definitely can't sell it, this was given to me by someone else." "If I sell it, how will I seal it! If you don't have enough money, you can make it again, and the guy who seals the talisman is gone, but you can't buy it with money.

Yuxi reluctantly put the square seal back on the manuscript again: "You are right not to sell it, not to say that this is someone else's affection, even if it is only economic value, it cannot be sold, according to the current market and the rise rate, the value of this square seal can at least double in a few years." ”

Two or three million has already made Ye Jinyu smack his tongue, but he didn't expect to be able to turn it again; Ye Jinyu immediately thought that this seemed to be a good way to make money, but just now the head of Yuxi said that bloodstone was only sealed after the Song Dynasty, so would there be a large number of bloodstone seals in the Tang Dynasty? Hey...... No, the big seal sent by the national teacher is a bloodstone seal.

Thinking of this, Ye Jinyu asked again: "Dao Chief, you said that this bloodstone has only started to form a seal since the Song Dynasty, so will there be a bloodstone seal in the Tang Dynasty?" For example, it is used for engraving at home. ”

Yuxi frowned and thought for a while: "It's not impossible, especially the possibility of Taoist carving using bloodstone is quite large, because the main ingredient of this bloodstone, especially the big red robe bloodstone, is cinnabar; Taoism uses cinnabar to draw talismans for alchemy, and it is very likely that bloodstone is used for engraving. ”

Oh! It turns out that the bloodstone, that is, the main ingredient of this Xuantian True Martial Seal given by the national teacher, is cinnabar, no wonder Taoist priests like it. Ye Jinyu felt the long posture deeply.

Ye Jinyu asked again: "Dao Chief, if you can get this kind of similar seal, or directly get bloodstone, can you sell it for a price?" ”

"Of course." Daoist Yuxi nodded and said: "Isn't this a matter of course, if you want to have the supply of Tianhuangshi, it will be more sought-after; ”

Seeing Ye Jinyu's incomprehensible expression, Yuxi said again: "This Tianhuangshi is a treasure in the Shoushan stone system, from a mountain stream in Shoushan Township, a mountainous area in northern Fujian Province, known as the "King of Ten Thousand Stones". Its color is warm and lovely, the texture is fine, and it has been regarded as the "king of printing stones" by the Indians since the Ming and Qing dynasties. In the past, there was a so-called one inch of Tianhuang and one inch of gold, since the Tianhuang stone in Shoushan was mined out; The value has skyrocketed. ”

"Fujian Tianhuangshi ......" Ye Jinyu silently wrote down this term in his heart.

Seeing that Ye Jinyu seemed to be really thinking about how to get Tian Huangshi, Yuxi Dao Chang couldn't help but have two expectations for him, and said, "Ye Jushi, if you can enter Tian Huangshi, Poor Dao knows a few friends who are asking for it; I can introduce you to it. ”

"Then thank the Taoist first, but I don't know if it can be done, if so, I think I can receive a lot of stones, and I have to send a piece to the Taoist as a thank you gift." Ye Jinyu still doesn't know if the space-time gate can bring back a seal, or if he can bring this kind of ore, although he has a certain grasp, he doesn't dare to pack a ticket.

Someone is willing to give this kind of treasure, the Taoist chief has nothing to do, smiled, and said: "In this case, Poor Dao first thanks Ye Jushi, it just so happens that the things outside the body that Poor Dao has accumulated for a lifetime have been spent on Ye Jushi's two books; There's no money to invest in this kind of treasure. ”

After chatting for a while, the Taoist chief got up to say goodbye, and didn't forget to look at the square seal when he left.

After seeing the Taoist chief's low-key car leave again, Ye Jinyu hurriedly closed the door and hid the Xuantian True Martial Seal; It turns out that this thing is a treasure, and it can't be lost.

Then, he continued to lie on the computer and began to search for Tianhuangshi.

Before today, Ye Jinyu had never heard of this thing at all, but now when he searched, he found that all the gold and jade were scum in front of this stone. Looking at the price of tens of millions, Ye Jinyu touched the beard on his chin, thinking about whether to go back to the Tang Dynasty first to find Li Yuan to buy this ravine. However, that place is a bit far away, and it was a big project to start from Chang'an to the southeast coast in the Tang Dynasty.

With Tian Huangshi, Ye Jinyu couldn't help but search the Four Great Stones that the Yuxi Dao people talked about.

Among them, Changhua bloodstone and Qingtian stone are in Zhejiang, and have been mined before the Tang Dynasty, Du Niang said that Qingtian stone has a good carving in the Tang Dynasty, which is a good choice.

As for the last Bahrain stone, that place doesn't seem to be in the territory of the Tang Dynasty yet, and you have to wait until Li Er destroys Goguryeo to have a chance, but it shouldn't take too long, and as soon as your gunpowder weapons are opened, and with the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, it is not difficult to destroy that Goguryeo.

After watching it for a long time, Ye Jinyu decided to write down all these places.

was copying and pasting and printing one by one, Wang Zhiqiang called: "Brother, come to Zhangba East Road; There's a nice factory here. The young man gave a rough introduction to the factory on the phone, which belongs to the sub-district office, with more than 600 square meters, a good environment, complete water and electricity, convenient transportation, and power electricity. The price is one dollar per square a day, which is ok.

Ye Jinyu thought about setting up the factory today, so that the young man could go to the new factory to live; Test the space-time gate yourself. So I rushed over.

To say that the young man is still very attentive, or that he has been paying attention to it a few days ago, and now he has chosen this place, Ye Jinyu feels that it is no problem at all.

The price of rent is dead, and the community would rather not rent if it does not receive this price; The contract is also fixed, and the community has rented a lot of rooms, large and small, and the numbers have been revised based on this contract. The landlord's qualifications are no problem; Ye Jinyu didn't bargain much, so he signed the contract directly and counted 230,000 yuan. In the next year, this factory belongs to Ye Jinyu, as long as he doesn't do anything illegal, he can toss it casually.

Two hundred and thirty thousand, a week in the morning...... No, twenty-four hours in the morning is an astronomical number for Ye Jinyu; But the current Ye Jinyu is no longer the Ye Jinyu of a day ago, 230,000, drizzle;

Especially after flipping through the pages about Tian Huangshi and the like, he was relieved; Imagine that since the bloodstone seal given by the national teacher can be brought back from ancient times, it means that this kind of item can be brought, and with the first piece, you don't have to worry about bringing back the second, third, and many pieces.

If you can bring back the seal of bloodstone, you don't have to worry about whether you can bring back the seal of Tianhuangshi; Although I don't know if these things are good in the Tang Dynasty, at least Ye Jinyu feels that he has found a direction for money, and he is no longer covered and blindfolded like before, and there is no direction.

Ye Jinyu handed over the key to the factory building to Wang Zhiqiang: "Clean up the factory first, and find someone to decorate and decorate by the way." When the house is ready, it is ready to introduce equipment and put it into production! ”

"Okay, brother, I think so too." Wang Zhiqiang responded with his signature smirk.

Ye Jinyu smiled and encouraged: "Okay, I'll leave it to you completely, you keep an eye on it, and finish the decoration of the plant as soon as possible to enter the machine." ”

Wang Zhiqiang nodded solemnly, thinking in his heart: Big brother is big brother, really a believer, he said that he didn't care about the new store. Since my eldest brother trusts me so much, I must make some achievements, and let my eldest brother see that Wang Zhiqiang is worthy of his trust.
