I was worried that the old man would guess that this chain came from the "Pearl of the Marquis of Sui", so I anxiously glanced at the forest, who knew that the forest was still the same as Mount Tai collapsed in front of him. Perhaps guessing my concern, Lin smiled at me and nodded his head to relax. I don't know why, the moment I saw Lin Suo's smile, all the uneasiness and anxiety disappeared in an instant, and I suddenly remembered that sentence in my mind: I suddenly smiled, like a fairy.

The old man pondered for a while, and then began to talk to us about the rules of raising jade. He said that there is an old saying in the antique industry that people raise jade and jade raise people, that is, the jade worn by a person, the better the luster of the jade, the better the wearer's body, and the worse the luster, the worse the wearer's body. If you want to raise a jade necklace well, you can't just wear it on your body, and generally buy new jade jewelry to soak it in warm water for 2-3 hours.

After the attachment on the surface of the jade ornament is softened, it is brushed clean with a small soft toothbrush, and then soaked in hot water at about seventy or eighty degrees, until the hot water and the jade ornament cool naturally, this step can fully relax the pores of the jade ornament and spit out the dirt in the jade body. The old man also said that if you meet a person who is particular about wearing precious jade ornaments, this process of washing jade is usually carried out three or four times, and then it will be washed again every three months or half a year, of course, in the hot summer, the cleaning of jade ornaments will be more frequent.

The old man paused and took a sip of his teacup, while I couldn't help but stick out my tongue, ashamed of the jade necklace I had worn roughly. Thinking of this poor jade necklace since it was put on, its whole life is sleeping in the open, not to mention such a particular jade washing, even the minimum maintenance is not there, it is really difficult for it to save me again and again.

After drinking the water, the old man continued, and the jade ornaments worn on his body should avoid colliding with hard objects. Because although the hardness of jade is very high, it is easy to have cracks in the jade ornament after the collision, some cracks can be seen with the naked eye, and some cannot be seen with the naked eye. Regardless of the type of crack, it indicates that the internal structure of the jade has been damaged, which can greatly impair the longevity and beauty of the jade ornament. The jade jewelry worn should also avoid dust as much as possible, and if it is accidentally contaminated with dust, it should be cleaned with a soft brush.

All jade ornaments are taboo fishy, do not let fishy objects touch the jade ornaments, and do not let the oil stain stain the jade ornaments, which will damage the texture of the jade, and in serious cases, it will also make the jade ornaments discolored and stained. If you accidentally let the dirt or oil stains stain the jade ornament, you should quickly scrub it with warm light soapy water, and rinse it with clean water many times, and do not use chemical liquids or daily chemical products to clean it, which will corrode the surface of the jade.

Hearing the old man say this, I couldn't help but swallow my saliva, since Lin said that he was not allowed to take off the jade necklace, he wore it at all times, including taking a bath. No wonder I can't smell the strange smell of blood, it must be those chemicals that have contaminated the jade necklace, what can I do. I took a closer look at the jade necklace on the tray again, it still looks round and jade to the naked eye, the whole body is not good for planting water and moisturizing, and the jade plate is as beautiful as before. It's broken, it must be an internal injury.

The old man continued, many people who don't know how to do it think that jade ornaments are worn on the skin, the more they touch the human body, and the more they are warmed with sweat, the better the jade will be raised, but in fact, this is a big misunderstanding. Because the jade ornament is exposed to too much sweat, the jade quality will be eroded, not only the outer layer of the jade ornament will be damaged, its own brightness will be greatly reduced, and the inner layer of the jade ornament will be blocked, becoming no longer crystal clear, warm and pleasant.

"Boss Qi, you said that this jade will be blocked? Does it still have small holes on it that are invisible to the naked eye? Why is it blocked? Where is the blockage? As a layman, I couldn't help but ask when I heard this, and reached out to pick up the jade necklace and observe it carefully.

"Girl, you really don't understand jade at all, it's a pity that such a good thing fell into the hands of a layman!" The old man glanced at the jade necklace in my hand with great pity, and his words instantly made my whole face red. It is estimated that in his eyes, he is an idiot who destroys the heavens, and he doesn't understand the pity at all.

"It's like a mountain across the line, and it's not surprising that she doesn't understand. These things are things outside the body, as long as they do their duty, there is nothing to be sorry for! "Lin Suo, who was sitting on the side, relieved me, Boss Qi nodded against his will when he heard Lin Suo's words, and said that I was pedantic, and then he continued to explain to me.

He continued, whether a piece of jade jewelry can show crystal clarity or not is determined by its own jade quality, and it is not dependent on the outside world to nourish or moisten, and it is impossible for any method from the outside world to make it more translucent. Moreover, if the white jade is exposed to too much sweat, its color is easy to turn pale yellow, and it will no longer be pure white as fat. According to the antique world, the sweat and grease on the human body will block the earth gate and drown the jade. In the same way, jade ornaments are also very afraid of ice, if they are often in contact with ice, the jade soil door will be damaged, and then the texture will be dull, and the whole body can not be outstanding.

Therefore, in the process of wearing jade ornaments, you must give the jade a chance to "vomit", that is, let the jade ornaments spit out the dirt in the body by themselves, which is about once every five or six months. There are two ways to make jade naturally "spit out" in the antique world, one is called "warm spit" and the other is called "dry spit".

The so-called "warm vomit" means that before going to bed, the wearer will untie the jade ornament he is wearing, place it in clean hot water at a water temperature of fifty or sixty degrees, soak it until dawn, and then wipe it dry before wearing. The so-called "dry spitting" is to put the jade into the prickly heat powder or dry flour, so that the jade spits out the acid, alkali and other hard substances it absorbs. Generally, after spitting out the jade ornaments, it will be more bright and bright to wear, and some good jade will gradually appear after wearing it for a long time.

"Boss Qi, can I ask you a question? You just talked about the earth gate, what is the earth gate of jade? Do you see that my earthen door is damaged? I asked cautiously, lest I embarrass Lin Suo and Uncle Qi again.

"It's no wonder that the girl doesn't play with jade, we who play antiques know that this jade is the same as people, it has invisible pores on its body, and connoisseurs call these pores the "earth gate" of jade, that is, the pipe that excretes impurities inside the jade. Jade is a very spiritual thing, it has more contact with the human body, and the human body temperature gives it nutrients, so that it has life, and the jade will continue to change. As for you, forgive me for being so lonely that I really can't see if it's damaged! The old man turned his head to look at the jade necklace, his eyes were full of longing and heat, and he could see that he was trying his best to control his love for the jade necklace.
