Chapter 10: Ancient Jade in the Sea (above)
Uncle Ming complained: “There is no mistake, your uncle and I and these three friends what immortal pills have not seen? These rotten green heads don’t even enter our eyes, do you have anything decent here or not? If not, don’t waste our time.”
Wu said with difficulty, “There are indeed good things on this island of Coral Temple, but we have to take our chances, you guys came too unlucky, some days ago a group of French people found a Ming Dynasty treasure ship in the trench, very well preserved, the green heads inside are as good as new, and when the latter heard about it and rushed to it, only the frame of the ship was left, and I still have the last box, which is the green head in my bottom of the box, and only when I meet a great connoisseur will I take it out. Encounter big connoisseur before willing to take out, a few brothers on the eye …….”
Said words, break Wu limped and dragged out a worn wooden box, the box exudes a fishy stench, uncovered the wooden cover, inside is a few layers of dirty soft cloth, to be his layer by layer demolition peeled open, I and the big gold teeth and other talents to look at the wooden box carelessly, but it does not matter, feel the body like a sudden touch of electricity like our eyes seem to have been sucked in by these green head, the line of sight can not be moved away from! In addition to the fat man, I and Uncle Ming, Dajinya all “miso” stood up, can not wait to ask the break the martial arts: “Where did you get these green head?”
“Wu” finally took out a wooden box, loaded with a bunch of strange ancient jade, some shaped like porcelain, some shaped like a dead bone, there are also shaped like animal horns and teeth, not only the shape of the weird and bizarre, the color of these ancient jade is even more mottled and bizarre, due to the water of the green head of the goods in the sea was eroded by the natural environment, so it is generally to dark grey But some parts of the old dip especially exist, or color like ginger, or color like rotten sauce, there are also bright as red jujube mark.
The big gold teeth most fine jade road, see this box green head, mouth of gold teeth and eyes all of a sudden light, where the sea out of a thousand years of ancient jade, often no one is perfect, the ancients hide jade has three taboos, taboo oil, taboo dirt, taboo fishy, greasy things will clog the tiny pores of the jade, so that the jade can not be crystalline moisturizing, lost the chalcedony of the green light, the sea in the jade immersed in the sea for a long time, the fishy sea water in the sea liquid and sea fishy gas contained in the salt brine The ancient jade in the sea has been immersed for a long time, the fishy liquid in the seawater and the salt brine contained in the sea fishy gas have made most of the jade hurt.
Uncle Ming is also a person who knows the goods, but his knowledge is from the artifacts of the paragraph shape of the authenticity of the judgment, see these green head of jade are all shaped simple and rare things, expected that the age is not shallow, on the low voice and the big gold teeth to discuss, this box of green head of the goods can have a great value?
You see some places have a glass-like light, really colorful, but the ancient jade is like this, the more ancient the more strange, the secular people how to understand the mystery of it? According to my view this batch of things say that the value of money is worth money, say not worth money is not worth money, value of money depends on how to say it.”
Dajinya and fat man, uncle Ming muttered how to “break off” cut price, but I looked at the box of jade out of half a day God, in Yunnan “King Xian’s tomb”, I’ve seen countless rare and exotic treasures, which naturally has a lot of Qin and Han period of the jade, but the box from the sea out of the Green head goods, even let me feel surprised, all the Yin Shang period of ancient jade, and the shape of ten for rare, especially one of the jade woman’s head statue, eyebrows realistically God, wearing a fish bone crown, neck long and thin, densely covered with scales, due to the only head, the neck below the missing, so I can not see the original is the head of a snake, or other exotic shapes, this jade head is our life has never seen, and even have not heard of! This jade human head is something we have never seen before in our lives, nor have we even heard of such a thing.
These strange and bizarre ancient jade is easy to identify the real and fake, since the Song Dynasty, there are people with chicken blood composting jade fake corpse blood dip, there are also under the frying pan fried put in the pit soak, but know the line will be Mo hot palm grip, then the authenticity of discernment, a little bit of identification, we know that “break the Wu” hands of this batch of green is indeed an ancient relics, is it that this woman jade head, is Professor Chen mentioned the hate of the sky, the jade head is the head of a man. Is this woman’s jade head, is Professor Chen mentioned the country of hate heaven antiquities? It seems that this coral spiral sea is really not simple, I immediately asked the tavern boss “break the martial arts”, these green heads are from where to get?
Break Wu said: “brother ah, you all know the line of market people, I do not dare to blind you, to tell you the truth, a few months ago the tsunami, from the sea there is a huge beast body floating out of the sea, the sea water receded after the death of the beach, due to the heat of the day, the decay is very fast, no one has not seen what this thing is what the beasts of the sea, but look at the body shape than humpback whales but also on the size of the two, it is estimated to be some kind of monster in the deep sea, this rare big sea beast has the wreckage of a small ship in its stomach, the ship’s compartment is filled with these green heads, so you guys smell this smell isn’t it a bit stinky? I can’t get rid of it even if I think of anything, I think it might be that some unlucky guy who fished for green heads was caught in a shipwreck and got caught in the bottom of the sea and let that thing swallow it, and then I collected this box of goods from the fishermen.”
The broken man thinks that the strange goods, naturally raise the price very high, under the sea in the coral forest there are indeed a large number of monuments, but can find not much, do not look at the jade has broken, and in the seabed soaked for a long time color is not good, but the year is there, this kind of green head only see once in a few decades, and would like to buy a lot of people in the.
I “break off the martial arts” words half-believe half-doubt, who knows that he is from the sea monster stomach to get the green head, or sea bandits robbed to sell the stolen black goods, but these are not important, the key is that we look at this batch of goods, in the event that we can’t find the Qin King Bone Mirror, pick a few sorts of hate the country of the ancient jade to Prof. Chen, but also be considered to be an account.
At this time, the big gold teeth and other people also privately discuss finished, I implied that the big gold teeth to go with the “break the martial arts” bargain, the big gold teeth immediately rushed to the “break the martial arts” grin: “I say that the martial arts master, do not look at you are specializing in receiving the head of the green, but you are not necessarily I don’t know how to understand the way of jade, to be honest, you these green head can be really hot.”
Trading green head or, trading Ming ware or, buyers and sellers if they know how to deal with the line, with the usual buy and sell a very different, one is a long way to go, do this line can not be with peers for the hammer sale, two is the antique industry is a show of eye, vigor and financial industry, do not have enough knowledge can not be, buyers and sellers negotiate prices, do not fight for millimeters of jin end, but to reason to persuade people, you say that this is worth money or not. Worth money or not, then you have to say something convincing words, so the antique game is also known as a play, not like buying and selling livestock that rough to rough, antique trading done, buyers and sellers since they can grow some insights, peer-to-peer transactions focus on the ability to improve their own level, the price of this case is secondary, because some of the learning to spend money can not be purchased.
