"Drive!"

Counting Xu Chen's twelve people, the twelve horsemen turned over and rode all the way to the northeast from Yingjiang County, five hours later, when the sky was not dark, Tengchong City was already in sight.

Xu Chen gave an order, and the twelve people were divided into zero, and they entered the city in batches of threes, threes, twos, and twos.

After entering the city, Xu Chen and Ding Daniu still came to live in an inn, four of the remaining ten people also lived in an inn, and six lived in the Tongfu Inn opposite.

Tengchong,

Since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, jadeite has been mined here, and now in Tengchong City, there are many jade and jade shops.

The rough stone wool mined at the Wulu River is unraveled locally, and then the seed material is sent to Tengchong City, where it is carved and then sent to the mainland for sale.

Such an industrial chain has been faintly formed!

Xu Chen's purpose for coming this time is very simple, he is here for Jade.

..

After entering the city, it was not early, and the group of people rode their horses for a day, and after eating, they went to bed early.

The next day,

After getting up and having breakfast, Xu Chen and Ding Daniu went to the street, and the other ten people hung far behind them and scattered in the crowd.

South Gate of Tengchong City,

There is a straight bluestone road in the door, and there are jade shops on both sides, some sell raw stone wool, some sell seed materials, and some sell carved finished products.

After looking around, Xu Chen walked into a jade shop called [Bihai].

It is said that it is a store, and it may be more accurate to describe it as a courtyard, not only Biluo, but also Tengchong City.

Stepping into the door, there were some blue-gray stones of different sizes scattered in the courtyard of the door, some of which were cracked, and there was a faint hint of the color of the green skin inside.

There is a wing room on the left and right sides of the courtyard, and in front of the gate is the hall house, the door of the hall is open, and there is a wooden counter lined up inside, on which are covered with tablecloths, and the tablecloths are jade products.

Bracelets, pendants, hairpins, rings and much more.

At this time, the main hall was not empty, and several people in luxurious clothes and with the air of a merchant were picking and choosing around the counter.

"Childe, come and see the jade?" Xu Chen entered the door, and someone stepped forward to greet him.

He is still dressed in white, with three thousand green silks, like a fairy in the dust, and he can't attract attention if he wants to.

"Take out your best jade, if my son-in-law is satisfied, the number of thousands of gold is only a few.

The black and strong Ding Da Niu perfectly acted as Xu Chen's dog's leg, and now he can already find his own existence without Xu Chen's words.

Everyone in the room looked at him, and Ding Daniu smiled proudly instead of being ashamed.

What do you see, my son-in-law is a fox fairy grandfather, how can you be compared to ordinary people like you?

Ding Da Niu thought so in his heart, and naturally he wouldn't say it.

"Old Zheng Hai, licking as the owner of the blue sea, didn't dare to ask Gongzi's surname?"

An old man in his fifties, with a beard and a scarf, and a rich figure, bowed to Xu Chen.

"Zheng Dongjia invited, the late surname Xu Dan has a Chen character, I heard that Tengchong is rich in jade, I came to see the world, my subordinates have no form, and the owner is not strange"

"Xu Gongzi is polite, but I don't know what Xu Gongzi has for jade?"

"There are no specific requirements, but the quality must be good, and the price is not a problem"

Zheng Hai laughed: "Don't dare to say anything else, the quality of our jade in the blue sea is not my boasting, Xu Gongzi can ask Boss Wang and Boss Chu."

A few people at the counter over there gave Zheng Dongjia face, smiled and appended a few words, Zheng Hai said again: "Xu Gongzi, please come to me, see if there is anything you are satisfied with"

Xu Chen followed Zheng Hai to the counter, and on the long wooden table, there were many jade products, each of which was transparent, pure, and lovely.

The grade judgment of jadeite is complicated.

Each of these seven things has a decisive impact on the value of jadeite.

Zheng Hai picked up a bracelet, the color was emerald green, transparent and pure: "How does Gongzi Xu look at this?" ”

"Not bad," Xu Chen nodded in admiration.

Wrong, yes, he knows a fart? As far as their old Xu family is concerned, there is no poor family in the eight generations of poor peasants, and Yuan Datou has no poor family.

How does he know what is jade and what is stone?

But it looks pretty good!

"There is also this hairpin, this piece of donkey, this jade belt, this piece of Zichen Pei, this carrying, hook belt, pen holder, flat box, paperweight, jade basket This is all carefully carved out by the master craftsmen invited by our Bihai from Jinling."

Every time Zheng Hai introduced one, Xu Chen nodded, looking really good, but he didn't know what the price was.

But

It should not be high, because during this period, Tengchong's jadeite was just emerging, and it was still in the initial stage of being discovered.

Jade, since ancient times has been worshiped by the Chinese nation, the gentleman is as gentle as jade, the beauty is like jade, and the body is like jade, these are the best evaluations of people.

but

The jade here refers to the Hetian mutton fat white jade.

Jadeite is really speaking, in fact, it was developed during the Qing Dynasty. This has something to do with the shaman's worship of life, the color green. and Galeries Lafayette's excessive love is also inseparable.

In short, green hasn't caught on these days.

After introduction, Zheng Hai said to Xu Chen: "These, can any of them enter Xu Gongzi's eyes?" ”

"Well, it's pretty good, but I don't know, what is the price?"

"If Xu Gongzi is sincere, it will be counted as one hundred and twenty taels"

"It's expensive!"

Xu Chen doesn't know much about the market, but no matter what price the other party offers, it's expensive, there's nothing wrong with it!

"It's really a conscience price," Zheng Hai said with a bitter face:

"Cost, transportation, labor, which one doesn't cost money? Let's just say that this stone is unpredictable if it goes down with a hammer.

These eight things cost one hundred and twenty taels, and they really can't make much money."

Zheng Hai was crying, but Xu Chen frowned, eight pieces of one hundred and twenty taels?

This buying, selling,

Done!
