Chapter 96: Imperial Green
However, Governor Ye glanced at the man twice, and then asked, "So, in this Jade Competition, are you Linlang Pavilion going to squeeze Tianbao Pavilion out of this top position?" If that's the case, thenβ"
Before Ye Zhifu finished speaking, he heard someone outside clamoring and said, "It's coming, it's coming!" The people of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion are finally here! β
Hearing this, the originally bustling people in the inner hall poured out again. Then everyone looked at Yin Laosan, who looked tired and his eyes were red and swollen, and he seemed to be several years old all of a sudden, and at this time he carefully protected the jade covered in red silk cloth, as if he was afraid of being squeezed into it, and couldn't help but shake his head and comment: "Hey! Gambling on jade is a game of luck! It is said that one knife is poor and one knife is rich, I really didn't expect him Yin Laosan to have a time when he looked away......"
"That's it. However, he has been beautiful for more than ten years, as the saying goes, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the front waves die on the beach. It's time for him to give way to the younger ones. β
Fang Fei and Yin Yukui's carriage then stopped and followed them into the inner hall. When she heard these ill-intentioned discussions, Yin Yukui couldn't help but glare at her angrily, but Fang Fei took her wrist and whispered: "Don't worry about these people, as long as we can win in the end, that's the best result." β
"Butβbut I haven't seen what kind of jade my father carved? I wanted to lift the piece of silk cloth to take a look, but my father said no! So, I'm really worried if it ......"
"Don't worry, there's no just in case. I believe my uncle, he must not want to publicize it in advance, so this jade finished product must be an incredible rarity! β
As he spoke, the two of them had already entered the inner hall with the crowd. After seeing Lu Xiuyun and Master Ye, Fang Fei had to come forward to salute.
Lu Xiuyun saw that the jade of Tianbao Pavilion was still covered with red silk after it was carried into the inner room, so he quietly asked Fang Fei: "What kind of treasure did your uncle carve?" At this time, you still refuse to show yourself in front of others? β
Fang Fei smiled a little apologetically, and said truthfully: "I haven't seen it either, but it should be rare to see it, uncle, he spent half a month of hard work on this thing, and I am really worried about his physical ......."
When they said this, Yin Congde was surrounded by people.
Many peers pointed fingers at the jade carving he had just put down, and the owner of the Linlang Pavilion who had spoken ill of him before even mocked: "What? It's time to pretend, do you have to pretend? Oh, Brother Yin, in fact, we all know that you spent a lot of money to buy a piece of white material that day, but it's nothing! It's a time when everyone looks away, as long as you admit that you are clumsy at this time, and you will do your little business in the future, we won't laugh at you! β
Linlang Pavilion was originally the property of the Zhao family, but now Zhao Dalang is locked in prison, Mrs. Zhao does not know the way of jade, so she simply transferred it to others, and it is also a safe way to keep the industries she is proficient in and continue to operate.
"That's it! It's been more than ten years since your Tianbao Pavilion monopolized our jade business in Los Angeles! Now it's time to abdicate and make way for us! β
Seeing that her uncle was being besieged, Fang Fei immediately walked over there. Shaoqing, I saw her graciously stop in front of the jade covered with red silk, and said with a smile: "Since you all want to see our Tianbao Pavilion this year's production, then why don't you ask Lord Ye of the Governor of the Mansion, to come and open this silk cloth!" After all, Master Ye has a good vision and outstanding virtue, and it is most suitable for him to be the first taster of this jade carving! β
Fang Fei's words made Ye Zhifu smile, and although the rest of the people were not angry, they could also see that Ye Zhifu seemed to be quite fond of Yinfu.
So they automatically retreated to open a way, and Governor Ye personally lifted the soft silk cloth, and then, everyone's eyes were glued to the carved lifelike jade flying dragon.
"Yes, the carving is fine, and the flying dragon is magnificent...... However, the texture of this jade seems to be just Huang Fei? β
In all fairness, Governor Ye's evaluation is very pertinent. Huang Fei is not a treasure among the jadeite, and the tail of the flying dragon of this jade carving shows an obvious yellow Fei texture, if you want to negotiate the price, it is not a problem to sell it for 10,000 taels of silver together with the carver.
However, if you count the cost, Tianbao Pavilion is still not profitable, but will lose thousands of taels of silver in labor and reputation.
Regarding Governor Ye's words, Lu Xiuyun also nodded secretly. However, he soon found that with the lifting of the red silk, there seemed to be some subtle changes around the entire jade dragon......
"Jump, jump! After this jade dragon saw the light, it seemed to be a little jumpy! β
"Yes! No wonder this Yin Laosan has to keep covering it with red silk! You see, the yellow fei of the dragon's tail is further up, and there is a large piece of green fei in front of it! Is this - is this? β¦β¦.β
People in the dry jade industry know that the so-called color jump is that two or more colors appear in a stone at the same time.
And if the connection is good, this multi-colored jade is often a treasure, and its price cannot be estimated by gold and silver.
An expert behind Ye Zhifu suddenly rushed over excitedly, his eyes shining and he couldn't wait to pounce directly on the jade carving: "This...... It's ......"
"Oh my God...... Still changing color, from yellow to light green, to dark green - what kind of treasure is this jade? β
After a moment, the man immediately said to the other companions, "Quick! Come and have a look! All the idlers and others quit, and opened the windows to let in the light outside! β
Immediately, the huge inner hall was cleared of many people. The whole room has also become much brighter.
Under the sunlight of near noon, the head of this jade dragon showed an extremely pure green color.
"Emperor...... Imperial Green! This is the real Imperial Green! It's rare to see in a hundred years, no, it should be said that it's rare to see in a thousand years! β
As the words of several senior experts fell, everyone present was instantly stunned.
What the?
A piece of white material in Tianbao Pavilion was actually carved with a flying dragon of imperial green? How much gold is this flying dragon worth?
"This is the largest imperial green I have ever seen since I did this business, and the value is impossible to estimate." The old man who had borne the brunt of the discovery that the texture of this flying dragon was imperial green was shocked at this time, shaking his head for a while and his jaw for a while was just amazed, although only the part of the head was the texture of the best imperial green, but this size was also quite amazing.
"Imperial Green, how is it possible, this is impossible!" The proprietor of Linlang Pavilion looked angry, and his eyes were full of envy, jealousy and deep hatred when he looked at Yin Congde.
"Master Hou, this is really imperial green, don't you believe it and take a look for yourself."
