Chapter 0123 Chickenshit (IV)
Immersed in porcelain thoughts. Interrupted by this sudden sound, Zhuang Rui could not help but raise his head to look toward the sound, just in time to see the money shopkeeper greeted.
At the time of the rolling door ringing, Zhuang Rui was exactly the time when his heart was a little hard to bear, although he could recognize the authenticity of the porcelain through his eyes, but he did not know where the fake was, he only knew what it was but not what it was, which made him itchy, and he also made a determination that when he returned to Zhonghai, he would definitely have to learn the knowledge of antique appreciation from Uncle De.
“Ancient brother, we old brothers haven’t seen each other for a few years, look at you, your body is still very strong!”
Qian Yao Si’s face was full of smiles, his eyes narrowed into slits as he stepped forward and hugged the visitor forcefully.
“Death wants money, you lighten up, my old bones can’t withstand your tossing and turning, my body is no longer as good as yours, I heard that you added a big fat boy only two years ago. This is also known as a good story in our profession.”
The visitor broke away from Qian Yao Si’s arms and said with a flirtatious face, they were old friends and were not afraid of this “dying for money” getting angry and flipping out.
“Good boy, Boss Qian, that story I just told is really about you! Awesome, awesome, that antique dealer is probably not as good as you.”
Liu Chuan and Zhuang Rui and others heard the words of the visitor, were surprised open mouth, this money Yao Si looks, at least sixty years old, only two years ago added a son, that is not fifty-eight or ninety-nine years of age, Liu Chuan on the surface, although it is a face of admiration expression, the heart is in the secret muttering: who knows whose seed ah!
Like to see the idea of Liu Chuan’s heart, the money shopkeeper said with a smile: “Ancient brother, you don’t stick gold on my face, I don’t know how many people behind the back to poke me in the backbone, but our old money don’t care, that son is our birth, have done paternity test, who is red in the eyes of those who have their own to go.”
Hearing the words of Qian Yao Si, Liu Chuan this is convinced, the old man is very strong words. Used in this fat old man’s body, that is more than appropriate.
“Ancient brother, my son’s 100th birthday, you didn’t even come! This time around, what gifts have you prepared for my son?”
Qian Yao Si’s words turned, actually asked for a gift from the visitor, this when the father asked for something for his son, but also should be due, only Qian Yao Si’s action was a bit exaggerated, that pair of white and fat hands, already reached out to the visitor’s face.
“Know you a dead want money will open this mouth, long ago prepared for you, sheep fat jade Guanyin, all evils do not invade, is suitable for your son to wear.”
That ancient brother seems to know Qian Yao Si’s nature very well, after hearing this, he immediately took out a Guanyin pendant with a thin red rope from his pocket and put it into Qian Yao Si’s hand.
Qian Yao Si is not polite, immediately with two fingers pinch the jade Goddess of Mercy, looking up to the light. After a few moments, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, saying: “Brother Ancient is worthy of being a great expert in playing with jade, his hand is extraordinary! This sheep’s fat jade is an uncommon treasure, on behalf of that incompetent son, little brother thanks old brother.”
Qian Yao Si is what kind of vision, just over the eyes, see the whole pendant on all appear like grease luster white, without a trace of color, know that this Guanyin pendant, even in the mutton fat jade, is also considered to be the best of the best.
Sheep fat white jade, also known as “white jade”, “sheep fat jade” for the soft jade in the top grade, extremely valuable, many ancient emperors used the jade seal is special white jade jade, museums all over the collection of treasures, all the white jade jade jade carved from the generations of cultural relics as the “national treasure”. “For example, the unearthed “Empress’ Seal” of the Western Han Dynasty was made of crystal white nephrite jade.
Since ancient times, people attach great importance to white jade, but the survival of extremely rare, to the modern almost difficult to see the trace, now on the market has been a kilogram of sheep’s fat jade speculation to about 600,000 yuan, even so, these so-called sheep’s fat jade, in fact, most of the high white mountain jade or son of jade, such as without skin, most of the high-white mountain material, and the real sheep’s fat jade and the real sheep’s fat jade is very far away from the difference, can say so. Now is the money, but also not necessarily be able to buy the best products sheepskin jade.
The texture is a little bit worse than the sheep fat jade, will be in the white through the slight yellow, and then a little bit worse is in the white through the slight gray tone, and this Guanyin pendant, the body is white and smooth, condensed as white fat, is the top quality sheep fat jade, so Qian Yao Si mouth of this ancient brother sent the gift, it appears to be very precious.
QinXuanBing heard QianYaoShi words, face also show a trace of curiosity, to know, jewelry store to sell, not only diamonds gold emerald jewelry, jade is also one of the most important commodities, of course, emerald is also jade, and is the representative of hard jade.
Both nephrite and nephrite belong to the class of chain silicates. Nephrite is a calcium-magnesium silicate of the hornblende group, so nephrite is also known as hornblende or sphalerite, while nephrite is a sodium-aluminum silicate of the pyroxene group, so nephrite is also known as pyroxene jade or phlogopite. Pyroxene has a vaguely crystalline structure with a glassy luster that is clear and lustrous. In contrast, the color of hornblende jade is closer to the curdled beauty of oil and wax.
However, Qian Yao Si had no intention of showing the goat’s fat jade in his hand, and after thanking that ancient brother, he then pocketed it, leaving Qin Xuan Bing’s thoughts of finding out what it was all about in vain.
Due to the arrival of the old man, Zhuang Rui’s work of appreciating porcelain was also interrupted, Qian Yao Si saw the crowd are a puzzled look, so he spoke out to introduce: “This old brother surnamed Gu, is the vice president of our National Jade Association, a few people if you are interested in jade, may wish to be close with the old brother after the close.”
Hearing this old man in front of him. Actually is the vice chairman of the Jade Association, Lei Lei and Qin Xuan Bing face both showed a surprised look, this time in Nanjing held in the jewelry exhibition, is by the Jade Association and Nanjing relevant parties co-sponsored, I did not expect to meet here will be the main event.
However, the two women did not speak out to explain their identity, this jewelry exhibition, the Jade Association is also just to provide a platform, as for who can shine in the exhibition, it is up to each according to their own ability, even if the handover of this ancient vice president, the role is not very big.
Just Qian Yao Si did not introduce Zhuang Rui and others to the old man surnamed Gu, caused the ancient vice chairman of the board of trustees greatly dissatisfied, glaring at Qian Yao Si said: “You this guy is really over the bridge, just take away my stuff, this will turn his face away from the people, honestly explain, you today this is what a show? So old, don’t bully the little children!”
Ancient old man also see out, as if the young man intends to buy Qian Yao Si’s porcelain, is in the appreciation, although he knows that Qian Yao Si these objects in all likelihood are fake, but in the face of an old friend, naturally it is not good to tear down the stage, but the ancient people are more kind, also do not want to see these young people to “dead money” to pay tuition fees! The old man was kind, and did not want to see these young people to “dead money” to pay tuition, so he said the above words, want to let the money Yao Si to dispel the idea of slaughtering people.
After hearing the words of the old man, Qian Yao Si’s face rarely showed a trace of embarrassment, but when his eyes glanced at Zhuang Rui’s right wrist, his face immediately returned to normal, it seems that the attraction of this heavenly bead bracelet to him is not generally big.
“Ancient brother, I’m not trying to rip off anyone today! I’m sending money to Little Brother Zhuang, but Little Brother Zhuang doesn’t even see it yet!”
“Huh? There’s such a thing? You’re dead set on asking for money only to come in, when did you start being kind?” Brother Ancient was a bit surprised, he knew that although Qian Yao Si was treacherous in business. But his behavior has always been to say one thing, since he said so, there must be a reason for it.
Qian Yao Si saw the ancient brother pursued the question tightly, some reluctance to find Zhuang Rui hands of the old days beads of the thing said out, he knew that in front of this immersed in the jade business inside a lifetime, if heard Zhuang Rui hands of the living Buddha blessed old days beads, certainly will also be moved, after all, dzi is also extremely precious a kind of gemstone.
“This little brother, do you really have a bracelet made of dzi beads?”
Sure enough after the old man heard the words, he immediately cast his eyes towards Zhuang Rui, but his gaze was different from Qian Yao Si’s, Qian Yao Si’s eyes towards the heavenly bead was nakedly wanting to own it, while the old man’s gaze towards Zhuang Rui was asking for his consent, wanting to appreciate it just a little bit.
“This old man, after I finish appraising these few objects, no matter if I sell this dzi or not, I will show it to everyone, so that’s fine! But you all won’t be able to pass on it.” Zhuang Rui saw that old man’s hot eyes, couldn’t help but smile bitterly, he had already valued this dzi bead very high in his heart, and didn’t expect its value to still be above his own prediction.
“Don’t pay attention to that dead want money, he this inside the object, I dare to guarantee, there is not a piece is true, and he bet, you will lose.” Hearing and smelling that there is a heavenly pearl to look at, Old Master Gu immediately exposed Qian Yao Si’s old bottom.
“Who said that! I bet on ceramics with Little Brother Zhuang, I definitely have a piece of big open door in this house, whether I can find it or not, it all depends on Little Brother Zhuang’s skill, I said Old Brother Gu, it’s not pleasing for you to tear down my oldest brother like this! Zhuang little brother said, a moment to let you see enough, come on, let’s old brothers drink tea to catch up, Zhuang little brother you continue ah! As long as we can find it, the object will be given to you for nothing.”
Qian Yao Si was very unconvinced when he heard the ancient brother’s words, although he didn’t believe that Zhuang Rui could find that object, but he definitely didn’t cheat Zhuang Rui, he just played a small slip.
More than twenty pieces of ceramics on the table, Zhuang Rui looked at eighteen or nineteen pieces, none of which contained aura, there are still five or six pieces of pottery left, Zhuang Rui continued to look.
The invention of pottery to far beyond the porcelain, is an important symbol of the primitive society neolithic era, neolithic era pottery, to the plain surface of the unwritten majority, part of the sandwiched pottery decorated with patterns, until the Western Han Dynasty, glazed pottery process began to be widely circulated up.
And Zhuang Rui in the grassland black market to see that the Tang three-color horse, is also a kind of pottery, the emergence of the Tang three-color also marks the types and colors of pottery, has begun to be more colorful.
This table also has a piece of three-color pottery, just compared with the three-color horse on the prairie, its firing level is far worse, at least Zhuang Rui did not use the eyes of the aura, can judge the authenticity.
Holding a magnifying glass to pretend to table these objects all look after, Zhuang Rui some dumbfounded, this is all fake ah, does it mean that this really old objects inside, not all with the aura?
