Chapter 45 Chapter 45: Suet White Jade Pot

It was high in the sun, and the sun shone unscrupulously through the window. It was not until the eyes were sore that I reluctantly got up from the bed. After yawning big, he glanced at Da Ya who was still sleeping on the sofa, and kicked him.Da Ya just stretched his waist and turned over, sat up grunting, closed his eyes, and asked me vaguely what I was doing today. I have been running around for the past two days, and I have not been able to sleep well. Finally, I slept at home for a night. While shaking my neck, I told Da Ya that I will take out the money in the check later, and then find an excuse to give to Mr. Meng I have a little share with the old man, and I have troubled him a lot these days.In the countryside, it is not easy to earn two dollars. For them, it can be of great use, and it can be regarded as accumulating some merit.

When Da Ya heard that he was going to withdraw the money, he obviously regained his energy. He got up from the sofa and muttered to himself: "Don't talk about them, for me, this is not a small amount of money, stop struggling Ten years! It’s a pity for those porcelain pieces. Alas, I thought it was time for the cycads to bloom. Unexpectedly, I was so happy. It seems that there is still a long way to go when I really bloom, and I have to continue to work hard. !" I smiled and didn't answer. I asked Da Ya to pack up quickly and thank Mr. Dong.Now that we are all back, we have to show our faces. Although we have paid back the money, the favor has to be passed. If they don't want it, we can't lose the etiquette.

After the two of us happily arrived at the bank, we realized that we had to make an appointment in advance. We had no choice but to fill out a form, and Da Ya and I went out angrily. I have never used a check to withdraw money before, thinking that I can withdraw money when I arrive there, but I did not expect to make an appointment in advance for large-amount withdrawals.Seeing that it was still early and there was nothing to do, Da Ya and I went straight to Wangfujing Gongmei Building to see what to choose for Mr. Dong. Wangfujing Gongmei Building is a store specializing in arts and crafts products. It has a history of more than 50 years and handles a variety of things, ranging from gold and platinum jewelry, gold bars, pure gold ornaments, inlaid jewelry, red coral, pearls, etc.I usually go there for a stroll, but most of the things there are very expensive, and most of the time I just hang out, and I seldom actually buy. Instead, I often come here to pick things for others when I help my friends to see Feng Shui.The things here are not very eye-catching, and tens of thousands of dollars may not be able to buy anything decent.

There is a retro shop on the second floor, which is very tasteful and unique.The shop is full of twists and turns, and it deals in traditional Chinese things. The jade and amber here are very unique, and they can be counted among the best in Beijing.Especially the waiters there, all dressed in Qing Dynasty Chinese-style clothes, soft-spoken, patient and professional, no matter what you fancy, you can say that you are ugly, and they can say it clearly, I will go The number of times has increased, so I have become more familiar with it. As soon as we turned to the jade counter, the saleswoman recognized me immediately and asked me what I needed this time.

I smiled and asked her if she had any new items that caught my eye, and I planned to give them to a friend. The saleswoman understood, squatted down, rummaged in the cabinet under the counter for a while, straightened up, put the jade in her hand on the black flannel on the counter, and then carefully turned on the strong flashlight, illuminating the inside of the jade, Let us introduce. Only then did I see clearly that it turned out to be an ornament carved from suet white jade, a crystal clear jade pot. The lady told us that this jade pot is exactly "mutton fat white jade", also known as "white jade", which is the top grade nephrite and extremely precious.And the material used in this jade pot is the best quality of pure white jade, moist and firm, translucent and pure, white and flawless.While talking, he used the white light flashlight in his hand to show us from the bottom of the pot. Sure enough, under the light, it was almost pure white, without other impurities, and it looked a bit translucent and foggy.

The quality of jade can be distinguished under the light.Ordinary white jade is translucent when facing the fluorescent lamp, but it does not have this foggy feeling.Although ordinary white jade looks white to the naked eye, it must have a slightly yellowish tint under light, so it cannot be called suet white jade.And this piece of jade completely complies with the strict standard of rare suet jade, absolutely free of any impurities, extremely pure in texture and full of water, it is a rare piece of the best. Da Ya shook his head and kept praising that it was a good item, so he asked the young lady how much it cost.

The saleswoman smiled at us calmly, her red lips parted slightly: "Sir, the price of this suet white jade pot is 86,000 yuan." When Da Ya heard this, he grinned. He took another look at the small white jade pot and shook his head. Seeing this, the saleswoman was afraid that Da Ya would retreat, so she quickly continued to introduce this item and told us that this white jade pot is definitely worth the money, and there is a huge room for appreciation. I smiled and asked the saleswoman to help me calculate, if I buy it, how much will it cost? The salesperson hurriedly took out the calculator and quickly pressed it, then pushed the calculator in front of us, and told me that my VIP card can be discounted by 12%, and the discounted price is 75,680 yuan, and the change can be erased. 75600 yuan.

I was just about to ask her to wrap it for me, when I suddenly stretched out my big teeth and big hands, and stopped me, then I looked at the saleswoman and smiled.This smile made the saleswoman a little confused, and subconsciously took a small step back. Da Ya took out a piece from his bag, put it on the counter, and smiled at the lady, "Could you please take a look at this thing for me?" What Da Ya took out was exactly the brick that was taken out from the bottom of Erlong Lake, that is, the piece of jade covered with mercury. The young lady was stunned for a moment, then carefully opened the cloth cover outside to have a look.After seeing the contents inside, she finally understood what Da Ya meant. She looked at me and said, "Let's wait a moment." She took the things inside and asked the teacher inside to take a look.

After the lady walked away, Da Ya told me that anyway, if I want to spend here, I might as well take this opportunity to let them show it for free, or let Yu Mazi show it all the time, and then let Yu Mazi put one of them, that old boy It's not a good bird, a profiteer. I told Da Ya with some amusement that his brick was useless if you didn’t look at it, and it would be good if it was worth the price of a roast duck. We were chatting and laughing in low voices outside, and after a few minutes, we saw the saleswoman walking out of it. I glanced at Da Ya, and told him, did you see it, it came out so soon, it was useless, maybe it was a rock.

Da Ya was a little discouraged when I said this, he sighed, and muttered to himself, it seemed that this time it was just a joyous occasion, and he put a lot of effort in vain, but let out a little fart. After the saleswoman came over, she smiled at us professionally and told us that their boss happened to be here today and wanted to invite us in for a talk. "Oh? Your boss? Did you say something?" Da Ya and I were a little puzzled, and for some reason even their boss was alarmed. The saleswoman smiled politely, then shook her head, saying that she didn't know too well, and then she led the way and took us to the office inside.

The office is not too big, the decoration is very elegant, and it looks very cultural.After the saleswoman brought us into the office, she closed the door quietly and backed out. Sitting on the sofa is a person, about forty-seven or eight years old, with short hair, wearing a Chinese Tang suit, the collar of the stand-up shirt is slightly open, the cuffs are rolled up to the middle of the arm, and there is a string of large honey wax beads on the wrist , is sitting on the sofa drinking tea.The face is not handsome, but sitting there, there is an innate aura, probably the boss here. Seeing us coming in, this man put down his teacup, stood up and smiled at us, introduced himself as the boss here, surnamed Guan, and came to us just to talk about that piece of jade.As he spoke, he pointed to the piece of jade brought by Big Tooth on the tea table with his finger. Only then did Da Ya and I figure it out, it turned out to be for this reason, and we thought it was something else.But after thinking about it, he also realized that since the big Buddha was alarmed, it is estimated that the value of this jade must be very high. Da Ya and I briefly introduced ourselves, and we shook hands, which means we know each other. Boss Guan looked at Da Ya and me, with a slight smile on his face all the time, pointing to the jade and first said: "Let's get straight to the point, this stone should be an old thing, but it's full of mercury, so the texture of jade Don’t dare to make judgments rashly, it may be priceless, or it may be worthless. Speaking of these, you should understand.” Speaking of this, Boss Guan paused, took a sip of water, and said with a smile: "This stone is a big gamble, and because it is a 'gamble', so the risk is also very high. Good eyesight and good luck, it may be lost in an instant." If you can become an upstart, on the contrary, if you miss it and have bad luck, you will naturally lose all your money and go bankrupt." After listening to it, I smiled and asked Boss Guan what he thought. After Boss Guan took a look at us, he smiled heartily and said, "I like to be straightforward in my work. I am willing to accept this piece of jade from you. You can make a price. This piece of jade is now Manqin. , As for what kind of jade can be produced, no one is sure. I have been in this business for a long time, and I have a kind of paranoid love for this thing, but I don’t know if you are willing to part with it, so give it to me?" Da Ya secretly glanced at me, seeing that he was about to make a move. I was not in a hurry. I praised Boss Guan for a while, and then changed the subject and told Boss Guan that we planned to give this piece of jade to a very important friend, but I really don’t know if it can be sold. I was a little apprehensive, so I decided to come to the store to choose a piece of something that can see the light, otherwise, if this piece of jade is a rotten stone, it will make my friends laugh. Boss Guan nodded without saying anything. He tapped the piece of jade with his hand and told us that if the other party is also an expert, it would be a priceless treasure as a gift, and if the friend is just a general hobby, not for playing , It's worthless to send this thing. I laughed, and even boasted that Boss Guan was honest and straightforward, so I pointed to this piece of jade and said, "Since ancient times, there has been a saying that swords are given to heroes. This piece of jade is also defiled in the hands of our brothers. I'm a person in this business, and I won't bully the two of us, so I'll ask Boss Guan to make a price, and if it's a good match, I'll give you this piece of jade." Boss Guan was obviously a little surprised when I said this, thought for a while, and told us that he can offer 200,000 yuan. two hundred thousand? Upon hearing the number, Da Ya and I looked at each other, both a little stunned. Boss Guan went on to say: "The price I gave must be fair. You can ask others with the item. If you feel that my big brother is not bullying the younger, you can send it back anytime within seven days." I quickly waved my hand and said to Guan Banban that there is no need for such trouble, buying and selling, willing to buy and willing to sell, it is meaningless to talk about it, we can trust the boss, so we will leave this thing to him. Hearing what I said, Boss Guan kept nodding, walked to the office, picked up the phone, pressed it a few times, said a few words in a low voice, and then put down the phone.He took out two business cards from the table and handed them to Da Ya and me, telling us that if we need help with anything in the future, just come to him. Da Ya and I hurriedly thanked the boss. As soon as we took it, the door was pushed open. A young man came in from the outside. He nodded respectfully at the boss, put down a suitcase in his hand, and walked away. out. Boss Guan directly carried the suitcase to the table, and when he opened it, there were piles of hundreds of yuan bills inside, lined up in rows, and the scene was extremely spectacular, it always felt a bit like a gangster transaction in a movie. Boss Guan smiled and pushed the suitcase directly in front of us, telling us that there was 200,000 cash in the suitcase, let us order some. After Da Ya glanced at it, he chuckled at Boss Guan, saying "No, no" repeatedly, and immediately put the lid on the box. The transaction was completed, and there was no point in staying any longer. After a few brief and polite words, Da Ya and I left his office with our suitcases in our hands. When the salesperson saw us coming out, she rushed up to meet us and handed us a paper bag.Seeing that we were a little puzzled, she told us that it was ordered by their boss and that it was given to us. I was a little baffled, so I took a look in my hand, and I was taken aback. I didn't expect it to be the suet white jade pot we just set our eyes on.
