In the "Xinghalo Antique Market" with the highest flow of people in Yangyue City, there is a jade shop named "Tianxuan", which is ordinary, and there are many peers around, and the business is average in ordinary times in the competitive antique market.

Today, however, there was a crowd of people, many people gathered around the door, and the entire antique market was as noisy as boiling water.

And in this store, there are several big people in Yangyue City who can tremble when they say their names. In front of many media, some of them are kind, some are not angry, and some are humorous, but at this moment they have no demeanor in front of the TV, staring at the three jade carvings on the table with the eyes of a hungry wolf seeing fat.

The first is a sculpture with the shape, using a piece of bright yellow jade, carved with a statue of the king of Fudo, a few brushstrokes to show the most perfect part of the stone, the action is natural, vivid, the theme of the work is vividly depicted. The natural stone shape and the delicate carving techniques make it a unique piece of art.

The second piece is a flat bottle carved by a whole piece of jasper through round carving, openwork carving, relief carving and other techniques, the beast opens its head and mouth, its eyes are round, the momentum is mighty, the curly hair is delicate, the bottleneck is carved with banana leaf pattern, and the bottom of the bottle body is carved with gluttonous pattern and treasure pattern. What's even more amazing is that the original jade used to carve this jade bottle was originally a piece of jade with flaws, but through superb carving techniques, this flaw is the icing on the cake.

The third piece is a white heron seal made of Hetian white jade, an egret with a high head stands next to a bamboo, the whole seal texture is pure, delicate, the shape is simple and generous and exquisite, slightly decorated and carved, but it is more natural leader, bright and moving, quite a flowing beauty, in this ordinary jade shop can appear such a good thing is really a beautiful thing.

Of course, this isn't what the jade shop was supposed to be, so let's turn the clock back to three hours ago.

The jade shop was deserted, and only one or two people came in to see things, and the receptionist in the store was not very energetic, after all, no business meant that he didn't have much salary.

"Ah, Comrade Shao Hua, I really want to change jobs, there is no one, and this salary is probably only two or three thousand"

A female receptionist sitting at the counter slouched on the table and began to complain.

"Okay, Xiaomin, at least we still have a salary, college students like us, how can there be a good job, just to accumulate experience for finding a job in the future. ”

The receptionist standing at the other counter of hers said to him

"You can think about it, I really don't know what you think, the boss is not here, and there is no customer in the store, why don't you sit?

"I think it's a basic quality embodiment."

"Oh, big brother, it's rare for an upright and optimistic person like you to be in society, and I don't know how many times you can go through the baptism of the world?"

The receptionist said half-jokingly

"Okay, stop talking, someone is coming, are you going to receive it or am I going to receive it?"

The receptionist looked to the door and saw a handsome man in a simple outfit with a snakeskin bag on his back walking into the store.

"Ouch, he's pretty handsome, but looking at this dress, it's not a rich man, and it can't be eaten as a meal! Alas, when did a handsome and rich young master take a fancy to me?"

"Every day, you're daydreaming about Cinderella, okay, I'll go to the reception, don't disturb your old man's sleep. ”

Jiang Shaohua walked up to the guest and said with a professional smile

"Hello guest, what can I do for you?"

"You have a jade carving service here, right?"

The guest's words were very simple, but they also made Jiang Shaohua very puzzled, but he still answered truthfully

"Yes, we have a jade carving service, you can choose the jade from us, we can help you carve the look you want for free. If you bring the jade from outside, you can also carve it for you, but you will have to pay a manual fee."

"I don't need you to carve, I just need your carving tools and machines."

The words of the guests are still simple and strange.

"This ......"

Jiang Shaohua began to feel embarrassed, this store is not his, if this machine tool is damaged by the customer, he will not be able to explain.

At this moment, a pot-bellied man led a woman in, and after Jiang Shaohua and the female receptionist Xiao Min saw the man, they immediately walked in front of him and said respectfully

"Boss"

"You're all here, take a good look at the store, I'm going to talk to this customer about some business. This is ......"

The fat man looked at the guest, especially when he saw the snakeskin bag in the man's hand.

"Oh, this is a customer who is going to come to our shop to work on jade, but this customer says that we don't need to carve for him, we just need to provide him with tools and machines. ”

Jiang Shaohua had already explained the purpose of the guest in just a few words, and the fat man nodded after hearing this, and asked the guest

"I don't know this guest's surname, where is the jade?"

"Don't be expensive, my name is Zheng Lin, and the jade is here"

That's right, the customer who came to this jade shop was Zheng Lin. With that, he placed the snakeskin pouch on the ground behind him and opened it, revealing four or five rocks of various sizes, the largest of which was about the size of a football, and the smallest one the size of an adult's fist.

When the stones were opened, the jade shop owner and the woman who had come with him frowned.

"This is the gambling stone of the gambling stone field, Boss Jia can't imagine that your jade shop is comprehensive!" the woman said first

"Isn't this little brother embarrassing me? Let's not talk about it, is there any green in your stone, I am a jade shop, not a gambling stone field, how can I help you solve the stone?" Boss Jia also asked quite puzzled.

"You don't need to worry about this, I just need the machines and tools you use to carve jade, and the rest are not within our trading scope, let's talk about the price, Boss Jia" Zheng Lin still replied briefly.

"This ......" This time Boss Jia also fell into a difficult situation

"Hehe, it's interesting and interesting, Boss Jia might as well agree to him, let's see if this little brother has real materials" The woman said with a smile

"This ...... Miss He, you're starting to joke too, even if I give him tools, how will he solve the stone? Do you want to use a carved jade stone to knock it?"

"I said that you only need to give me tools, and the rest are not within the scope of the transaction," Zheng Lin reminded again.

"Okay,...... What tools do you need? I'll get it for you. ”

"Chopping the stone, trumpeting, punching the eye, and sharpening the needle are all four things," Zheng Lin said calmly

"You don't need a pressure wheel and a lid bead, as long as these four things are you going to use it to carve what kind of jade?" The woman heard Zheng Lin say about the special term for carving jade, and immediately Zheng Lin looked at it a few points, and also asked the doubts in her heart.

"It has nothing to do with this transaction, I don't need to answer" Zheng Lin watched Boss Jia walk into the back of the store, and then replied like a piece of wood

"You!" That Miss He heard Zheng Lin's words, and said slightly angrily, "How many men dream of saying a word to Miss Ben, why don't you know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade at all? Believe it or not, I asked Boss Jia not to give you the tools!"

Zheng Lin glanced at Miss He coldly, and said in a cold tone, "If he doesn't give it, I'll change it, and if no one is willing to give me tools, then I'll go home and carve jade with a kitchen knife." Anyway, you're a little girl from Kyoto, and your temper is not small. ”

"Hmph! I can't get used to looking at Miss Ben like this, so don't look at it."

Miss He said with a pruning face, and suddenly she thought of a question that shocked her, and quickly turned around and asked

"How do you know I'm from Kyoto, I've never mentioned it to others, even Boss Najia, I'm just doing business"

Zheng Lin looked at her, snorted coldly, and said, "If you just come here to do business, then it's okay, if you have a secret and come here secretly, in fact, if you don't say it, many people can know that you are from Kyoto."

"What?" Miss He asked in disbelief when she heard Zheng Lin's words.

"First of all, your accent, a strong Kyoto accent, anyone who knows the Kyoto accent knows that you are from Kyoto. The second is your skin color, compared to the skin color of Zhao Zhou people, your Kyoto people's skin color is a little whiter, and you can find your difference if you have good eyesight. Finally, your wording, in the Zhaozhou jade world, we generally call the gaizhu as a concave ball needle, and the gaizhu is your unique name in Kyoto. If you combine these three points, you can tell that you are from Kyoto, and even if you are not from Kyoto, you have lived in Kyoto for a long time."
