Chapter 0132 – Worldly Friendship (II)
“Old master is joking. I don’t know much about jade, this piece of raw stone that opened out the jadeite, was left behind by my grandfather, I inadvertently cut it out before I realized that there was this piece of jadeite inside.”
Zhuang Rui laughed bitterly, can only move the deceased old man out as an excuse, this feeling is really not very good, at that moment inevitably again the grandfather left the diary of the things said again.
“So Mr. Zhuang is Little Brother’s grandfather ah! When I was young, I used to listen to the old gentleman’s main lecture about the theory of ‘the relationship between strong hydrothermal activity in crustal movement and natural jadeite’, which inspired me a lot in my later study of jadeite, on the contrary, I am also regarded as Mr. Zhuang’s disciple, and so many years have passed, and I was surprised that I didn’t even know that my teacher had already passed away.”
After hearing Zhuang Rui reported his grandfather’s name, the old man Gu was taken aback and hurriedly stood up to show his respect for his teacher, from the old man Gu, Zhuang Rui learned that his grandfather was indeed a student of the great geologist Mr. Li Siguang, and it turned out that the name of Mr. Li Siguang in those letters. It is not just out of respect, but there is a real teacher-pupil relationship between the two.
“Mr. Zhuang’s lectures are humorous and interesting, and he has deep research on the geological landforms of China’s Yunnan as well as Burma and Laos, etc. The first time I knew that the beautiful jadeite jade was mined from a stone was after listening to Mr. Zhuang’s lessons, and I learned about it, and I can also say that Mr. Zhuang is the leader of the jadeite jade industry that I have entered, ah! Little Brother Zhuang is really amazing, just from the teacher’s diary, you can see the direction of the original stone grain, will be this piece of jadeite cut is so perfect, really is the general’s door out of the tiger, the teacher is also considered to be a successor.”
Ancient heard the news of his teacher from decades ago, he was quite excited between his looks, and his speech was a bit wordy, but Qin Xuan Bing and the others could see ancient’s admiration for Zhuang Rui’s grandfather on the old man’s face.
“Where am I seeing the grain of the original stone, ancient, I just casually everything, just happened to cut from the edge of this emerald, and then polished it out a little bit with the grinding wheel, you old man don’t laugh at me.”
Zhuang Rui said with some tears and laughter, dare to say that this cut stone also makes himself into a tiger grandson, but he did not dare to take credit, to talk about the knowledge of antiques, he understands the least about jade. If he admits it, just chat a few sentences, I’m afraid he’s going to leak the bottom.
“From Mr. Zhuang there on, we are also considered friends, I should call you a nephew, you do not underestimate the luck, whether it is antiques or jade, the process of Taobao, eyesight accounted for twenty percent, luck to account for eighty percent, think about it, this thousands of years down the line of the object, can be placed there waiting for you to pick up the leaks, there is no good luck can be done? Especially in the jade, you should also know that the stone gambling, this thing to speak of experience is a little, but experience can only account for 20%, the remaining 80% are relying on luck, full of turquoise python pattern of the original stone may be opened out of the shit ground, and the appearance of the stone is not colorful, but also may be out of the glass ground of the very best. Plus the string of dzi beads given to you by the Living Buddha, so yeah! Nephew Zhuang, don’t underestimate luck!”
Ancient today is very happy, talk about happy, gushing and a few people chat up, what he said is the voice of experience, for jade this object, has been mined out of the jade, of course, can rely on experience or instrument to analyze the conclusion, but like jadeite raw stone, the world does not have any kind of instrument can be in the case of not hurt the appearance of its detection of whether or not there is jadeite inside, this is to rely on the luck of the draw.
“Fuck, wood, you piece of shit, actually worth a few million? Your kid is not polite, such a thing are not and buddies say, I say you pick up girls really give up work ah!”
Liu Chuan listen to the old man said evil, pull Lei Lei to the side, which only know the real value of the jade, this afterthought buddy can not help but yell up, said Zhuang Rui face is red a burst of white a burst of good embarrassment.
“Liu Chuan you a no interest thing, people Zhuang Rui can send out millions of emerald, what have you sent to my mother? Go to the supermarket to buy things are still I pay the bill, what do you have to say Zhuang Rui?”
Zhuang Rui has not yet answered, Liu Chuan side is already a backyard fire, to see the lion roar like Lei Lei. Liu Chuan even compensated for not, this guy has a thick skin, patting his chest and hard to send himself out, causing the crowd to laugh.
“If I know this dime-sized broken stone can be worth a few million dollars, send or not to Qin Xuan Bing this is still a two-way street!”
Zhuang Rui this will be indignant in the heart muttered it, just look at Qin Xuan Bing face touched look, this death can not say out ah, Zhuang Rui is now considered to experience, estimated that before those heroes to save the beauty or a beautiful woman throw money story, are likely to be similar and their own, purely be driven on the shelf.
Looking at the face with a smile, eyes full of affection Qin Xuan Bing, Zhuang Rui suddenly remembered something, opened his mouth and said to the ancient: “Old master, I this also want to please you a thing ……”
“Don’t call me old master, this is something I can’t afford, call the voice of the teacher uncle is good, your father I have also seen, is a learned person, it is a pity …… Well, there is something you say, I can do it, naturally will help you.”
Zhuang Rui had not finished speaking. Was ancient waved his hand to interrupt away, other people shouted him sentence old master, he can still afford, this Zhuang Rui but only and he is separated by a generation, although the title of old master can also be used, but in order to show respect for the teacher, ancient or let Zhuang Rui change a name.
“Uh, Ancient …… Ancient master uncle, it is like this, I will return to Zhonghai in a little while, look at the appearance of that person just now. Should be the local snake here, I’m afraid that when me and Da Chuan are gone, Xuan Bing and their two girls will be at a disadvantage, can you help take care of it, senior uncle, with you there, I’m sure that those small-minded people won’t dare to make trouble.”
Zhuang Rui’s words let the ancient first froze, then angry, turned back to the middle-aged man behind him and said: “Go to check the details of the kid just now, to also eat jade this line of rice, cut off their source of goods, tell those jade merchants, say it is what I said, do not supply to this jewelry company.”
At this time the ancient, the majesty of the superior revealed, look in the eyes of Zhuang Rui and other people, suddenly strange up, like suddenly changed a person in general.
They do not know, the ancient not only in jade appraisal attainments are very deep, and is also the Palace Museum one of the specially recruited researchers, every year to take a period of time, specializing in some of the national treasures of the ancient jade and successive generations of the royal jade seal classification, but also in the carving of the jade is also a masterpiece, including many dignitaries, the works of the ancient are difficult to find a stone, and make friends with a lot of bigwigs.
Middle-aged man promised, turned around and left, poor Wang Kung family company, in a long period of time suffered blows, still do not know exactly who is offended, after the fact, after knowing that it is a stick of Wang did a good thing, Wang Kung’s old man almost did not Wang Kung’s third leg to break off.
“Alright, they don’t dare to come back to cause trouble again, however, Qin family’s little girl, these jewelry exhibits of yours, the grade is not up or down, it’s hard to close a deal in this exhibition. This way! Old man I help people to the end, to introduce you to a few customers, will you this time the goods all eat down, as for the future, you have to rely on their own, but also not in my name ah!”
Ancient although confident that no one will find the trouble of this booth, but Qin Xuanbing they do not have any connections, in this exhibition to stay down there is no point, in Zhuang Rui’s face, the ancient or decided to help them a think for a while, the ancient then said: “The exhibition has a total of ten days, today is only the first day, such as your batch of jewelry are dealt with after the transfer of the booth out, which can save a lot of money! out, this makes can save a lot of money.”
Qin Xuan Bing and Lei Lei heard, naturally overjoyed, originally these two women are in the heart of the thought, this exhibition will certainly lose blood money, although the two of them on the exhibition of this money and do not care, but the first time to independently plan such a program to fail, the two women naturally feel a little frustrated, and now this sentence of the old man is no less than the old man in the snow, ah!
Ancient waved his hand, indicating that the few people did not need to thank him, then stood up and said to the few people: ”Take these several types of jewelry of yours with you and follow me! Introducing a few clients for you to get to know, but remember, no more of my banner in the future.”
Ancient spoke with a smile on his face all the time, he was able to introduce the clients to Qin Xuan Bing and the others, naturally, he wouldn’t care if they came into contact with these clients in the future, without having to play his name again, those people would give a few points of face as well.
“Senior, I won’t go with you, but also drive back to Zhonghai, when you are free to go to Zhonghai, my nephew will definitely entertain you, Xuan Bing, Lei Lei, let’s see you in Zhonghai in a few days.”
Zhuang Rui raised his hand and looked at the time, it is already more than one in the afternoon, he is now driving to Zhonghai, it is estimated to be able to arrive after it will be dark, see things satisfactorily resolved, he would like to say goodbye and leave.
“No hurry, Nanjing to Zhonghai, drive faster four or five hours to arrive, you also come along! This exhibition has a few Chaoshan customers, bring some Burmese jadeite raw stone, your kid’s luck is too good, come and take a look, maybe you can give us a surprise!”
Ancient’s words made Zhuang Rui’s heart flutter, this opportunity was a rare one! Several times I heard about gambling stones, today I finally had the pleasure of seeing it, Zhuang Rui immediately dismissed the idea of leaving.
Qin Xuan Bing, the total value of the jewelry they exhibited in this exhibition is also more than 10 million, after hearing the words of the ancient, will be received in a password box, carried by Liu Chuan students, followed by the ancient to the southeast of the exhibition hall in a corner.
This jade jewelry exhibition will be divided into ABCD four exhibition halls, a large area, Qin Xuan Bing company’s booth in the A hall, Zhuang Rui and Liu Chuan from yesterday to now, has been busy, also have no time to wander, until after following the ancient to the D exhibition hall, only to know that there is something else here.
