I have to say that Li Youcai's words have successfully aroused Lao Kangtou's appetite.

Just a second ago, Lao Kangtou's attention was still completely on, on the piece of mutton fat white jade in his hand, he regarded Li Youcai's words as a deaf ear, his left ear went in, and his right ear went out.

But only what Li Youcai said just now made his whole heart shock, and he almost jumped.

"What did you just say......? Are you sure you haven't looked away?" Old Kang looked at Li Youcai suspiciously, and at this time he calmed down a little, half-convinced.

"Yes, you taught me the ability to look at jade, I just used the ability you taught me to look at the jade, I feel that it has a certain value, since you don't believe me, forget it...... If I didn't come today, I'll go to the antique shop on Sanlong Street and ask the master there to appraise it. ”

Li Youcai raised his foot and was about to cross the threshold and leave here.

"Hey, talented brother, don't be in such a hurry to leave, wait, it's hard for you to get me here, you haven't drunk my latest Tieguanyin." ”

Lao Kang's eyes rolled, he quickly got up, stepped forward and grabbed Li Youcai's arm, and pulled him into the house.

Just now, Lao Kangtou treated Li Youcai like a stranger, ignoring him. But now, he completely regarded Li Youcai as a guest.

This old Kangtou is such a strange old man.

I'm 68 years old this year, and I'm not interested in anything else, but I'm only interested in collecting and planting flowers and plants. These two, also known as his greatest hobbies in life.

Lao Kangtou's family has been a rich family since ancient times, and his grandfather is also a wealthy businessman in the Republic ~ period, thanks to the blessing of the ancestors, the family has not fallen.

In Lao Kangtou's generation, he did not want to inherit the family's willingness to trade, but used the family's money to buy a large number of jade and other collections, so as to appreciate and preserve the value, and then sell them later or sell them to other collectors through auction companies, which is regarded as a collection business.

In this way, you can not only make money, but also satisfy your own interests.

Gradually, he found that collecting had become integral to his life and became indispensable......

When he relied on collecting and earning a lot of money, he chose to live a life similar to that of retreating to the mountains and forests, and allocated a sum of arrears to his children and let them distribute it by themselves, and he was in this courtyard, planting flowers and plants, playing with antiques, and living a life of retirement.

But the obsession with jade antique collections has never changed.

At this time, when he heard that Li Youcai saw the blue of the lake from the jade, it was like being beaten with chicken blood. You know, in the jade world, not to mention that you can see a lake blue color, even if it is a trace of it, this thing is a treasure!

The warm blue color like a lake is a noble symbol of Baoyu!

Lao Kangtou didn't dare to slack off, his legs and feet became numb, and he quickly made tea, handed it to Li Youcai's coffee table, and then across the coffee table, he did it opposite.

"Talented brother, do you believe me?" Old Kangtou was like a child, squinting his eyes, smiling, and rubbing his hands from time to time.

"I believe it, but I don't know who it was just now, and they wanted to drive me away. Li Youcai, who has no fear, is more like a child, shaking his head, crossing Erlang's legs, and unconsciously snorting.

He knew the personality of the old man very well, he had lived to be nearly seventy years old, and he ate more salt than he ate. And his attainments in jade collection, his vision is very ruthless and sophisticated, how can he be able to see the ordinary small jade and small stone. Only by really arousing his appetite and making him interested can he better identify.

At this time, Lao Kangtou's act of pretending to be a grandson was not just to ask Li Youcai to hand over the piece of jade to see, but Li Youcai was good, excellent and swimming, and he was not in a hurry at all. Lao Kangtou's heart was burning urgently, as if his heart was hanging on the oil pan and frying.

Li Youcai picked up the blue and white porcelain cup with a handle, took a sip, and exclaimed: "Well, it's good tea." ”

Lao Kangtou was secretly angry in his heart: Nonsense, is it a good tea for you, hurry up and hand over the piece of jade, let me see, isn't this a heart-to-heart response.

Although he said so in his heart, Lao Kangtou was full of smiles on the surface, and the wrinkles on his face were hard, squeezing out the appearance of flowers: "The tea is delicious, if you can drink good tea and watch the good jade at the same time, wouldn't it be fast!!"

Lao Kangtou was working the side, isn't it just to let Li Youcai quickly hand over the piece of jade for himself to identify. He was afraid, if this kid really changed his attention later, and was about to go to Sanlong Street Antique Street to identify it, then he might miss a piece of treasure jade.

This is difficult for a jade-loving person to accept.

Lao Kang patted his thigh and sighed, he was a little remorseful, he shouldn't have set up a score just now, people asked him to identify it, and he went to take a look. Now it's okay, he still wants to be an old man himself, begging others to show him a look at jade, which makes his face a little unbearable.

"Well, please show me this jade, Lao Kangtou, what kind of jade it is. Seeing that the time was almost up, Li Youcai finally stopped hanging his appetite, put the teacup aside, took out the piece of jade from his trouser pocket, dusted it with his hand, and then handed it to Lao Kangtou.

Lao Kangtou didn't dare to slack off, stood up with a smile, and held this piece of jade with both hands, very respectful, just like before, in ancient times, to receive the emperor's ~ official ~ official ~ member.

Of course, if he identified that this was a piece of waste jade, he would definitely fall it off, and then angrily scolded Li Youcai for playing himself for so long.

Lao Kangtou held this piece of jade in the palm of his hand, frowned, first looked left and right, stared at it for a while, and weighed it in his hand.

Then he walked to the desk in a few more steps, turned on the fluorescent lamp, placed the jade under the lamp, and studied it carefully.

Jianbao, especially Jianyu, does not mean anything, it can be seen at a glance. Just like in the novel, a master of jade appreciation can distinguish the authenticity or quality with a look with his eyes or a touch with his hands, which is unrealistic.

The real jade appreciation must be observed and measured from all aspects, and finally an accurate judgment can be made.

Of course, like Lao Kangtou, a veteran who has played jade for decades, the probability of losing his eyes is almost zero!

In the past, he also used to help people appreciate treasures. If a piece of jade is identified as a good jade, the owner will definitely be ecstatic and will not have the slightest suspicion. But if he doesn't know guò here, this jade is basically sentenced to death.

So Li Youcai, at this time, his heart was also hung up, he couldn't sit still and stood up, looking at Lao Kangtou's expression from time to time, and his heart was also very anxious, eager to know the result.

Although it is said that this piece of jade was given to him by others, don't pay a penny yourself, and there is no such thing as betting on jade. But when he came, Li Youcai also gave him enough hope and hope.

If in the end, this piece of jade was simply a waste jade, he would definitely feel lost.

Li Youcai has always thought that on TV, in those treasure appreciation programs, the holders are restless when the experts appraise the treasures, and some people are sweating profusely, he thinks this is very exaggerated, but when this thing really falls on him, he can really experience this feeling of sitting on pins and needles.

What kind of jade is this, Li Youcai pondered in his heart. At the same time, he was also anxiously waiting for the results of Lao Kangtou's identification.

After looking at this piece of jade left and right under the fluorescence, Lao Kangtou's brows had stretched slightly, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned unconsciously, but he couldn't say for sure.

He took out another brocade box from the cabinet under the desk, and when the brocade box was opened, there was a small stick of agate and a red rope coiled in the period.

He took out these two objects, tied the jade with a rope, and then put it sideways to his ear, concentrated, and with his right hand an agate stick, he tapped it lightly, knocking it one by one, and listening carefully to the sound that was made.

After knocking three more times, his brows widened more and more, and the original uncertainty in his eyes was much less, and finally he was very convinced.

He put down the agate stick and red rope, held the piece of jade in the palm of his hand, the expression on his face was very excited, and he said very firmly: "This piece of jade is a jadeite, and it is also the legendary imperial green!

When he spoke, he was spitting with excitement, and it was difficult to hide the joy in his heart. Although this is Li Youcai's jade, he himself is even more excited!

"Imperial Green, the name sounds quite domineering, but what is this?" Li Youcai said puzzledly, he didn't understand, why did Lao Kangtou dance so much, could it be that he had really picked up a treasure?

"This is imperial green, also known as "emerald green", which is the best color and the highest value green in jadeite!"
