Chapter 191 Chapter 191

And the jasper ruyi that Liu Yufei pursued for two years before he got it was the jade ruyi that Ji Yanran saw for auction when Jia Sidao went to the auction for the first time. resemblance.It's just the material, one is white jade and the other is jasper. Looking at Jia Sidao's surprised expression, Liu Yufei thought that he had fallen in love with his collection, and immediately made a subconscious dodge movement, as if he was holding the jade Ruyi in his hand tighter, and his expression brightened. Still quite puzzled, he said in surprise, "I said Xiao Jia, you are really planning to collect Jasper, right?"

"How can it be?" Jia Sidao explained, "It seems to make you nervous. I just think that this Yu Ruyi can be fiddled with, that is, you have collected so many shapes, how can you still Do you care so much about this one?" "You don't know about this, do you?" Liu Yufei gave Jia Sidao an angry look, and said, "Then let me ask you, you are all playing with jade, and you have a lot of jade at home, why do you have to go outside?" Betting on stones?" "Uh..." Jia Sidao hesitated for a while, not knowing what to say. "For money?" Liu Yufei said to himself, "That must be one of the aspects, but if it is only for money, the high risk of betting on stones is better than finding some other investment. Even if it is the acquisition of emerald materials, And then resell it, it is much safer than you directly participating in the stone betting."

"That's for sure. I've heard that there are still people who, relying on the purchase of emerald raw materials, and then making them into finished emerald products, relying on the advantages of sales channels, will be worth hundreds of millions within a few years." Jia It seemed to answer. "That's the end." Liu Yufei shrugged and said, "It's the same with playing collection. It's just the process, and it's all about the fun. I don't care if it's true. The value, how much can it be. Hehe, actually, I am not the only one in the antique industry, most people are like this."

"Yes, you can enjoy yourself here." Jia Sidao took the jasper Ruyi from Liu Yufei's hand, looked it over carefully, and felt that the craftsmanship is still very exquisite, especially the lines on the carving, which are very majestic .From the looks of it, it's something from the Qing palace, so it shouldn't be wrong. "Don't you believe it." Liu Yufei smiled and glanced at Jia Sidao, and then specifically looked at Li Shiyun who was following Jia Sidao. It seemed that Li Shiyun's eyes were also quite suspicious. Liu Yufei immediately Some were not too happy about it, and they said a little show off, "Well, since you don't believe me, why not let me give you another example? After listening to it, you will definitely understand my mentality."

"Isn't it about elder brother again?" Li Shiyun pursed her lips and said with a smile. "Brother is not, but that connoisseur of collections is He Shen mentioned earlier, Mr. He." Liu Yufei pointed to the Jasper Ruyi in Jia Sidao's hand, and said, "You know, He Shen's family , how many such Yu Ruyi collections do you have?" Jia Sidao took a look at Liu Yufei's collection room. According to Liu Yufei's own statement, the total collection should be between two and three thousand pieces, and ornaments such as jade ruyi belong to the most of all collections. Well, just the ones Jia Sidao saw on display, there are dozens of them. As for the ones stored in the grid, there are probably even more, maybe a hundred or so.So, Jia Sidao thought about it and said, "Could it be, not as many as you have here?"

"Go, stay here." Liu Yufei said angrily, "How can I compare with others and adults? According to Jiaqing's copy of He Shen's family files, jade Ruyi, including jasper, white jade, etc. There are more than 200 pieces in total. As for the ones inlaid with jade, there are 1610 pieces. And there are more than 2000 pieces of other Jiuruyi.” While talking, Liu Yufei showed an envious look on his face, and made a "tsk tsk" sound. "I see, your collection here, if it takes a few more years, it is estimated that it will reach this amount." Li Shiyun said beside him, "Maybe, this Biyu Ruyi is in Heshen's house. It’s been collected.” After speaking, Li Shiyun pointed to the Biyu Ruyi in Jia Sidao’s hand with a slight smile, and said, “However, if you learn from Heshen, the fate of others will not be very good. "

"Well, I'm just giving you an example to illustrate that as far as collection is concerned, as long as you look at something good, you will want to put it in your pocket. Although, there is a saying that goes, you have it when you see it. But If there is a chance to hide it in one's own home, who would not be tempted." Liu Yufei sighed and said, "Especially for high-quality goods, let's take this Jasper Ruyi as an example." In his hand, he took the jasper ruyi carefully, and said, "The craftsmanship, material, and workmanship from the manufacturing office are excellent. To have such a jasper ruyi in one's life is enough."

The last words were quite decent. Jia Sidao and Li Shiyun listened, but looked at each other, and immediately felt a sour smell permeating the entire basement. Fortunately, Liu Yufei soon realized that he seemed to be too immersed in the role of a collector, smiled embarrassingly, and said, "Don't think that such things are just hidden for viewing. You know Well, the function of jade ruyi itself is to give gifts to others. Even in these days, it is a very good thing for subordinates to give to superiors. Moreover, it also appears to be of special taste, and it can avoid bribery The accusation... is really fine."

As for whether such an idea is more "excellent", or boasting that the Ruyi in my hands is more exquisite, it is not known. "Then please give me this jade ruyi as a gift." Jia Sidao smiled and said, "Look, as far as the relationship between us is concerned, it should be something precious, right?" "You?" Liu Yufei was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly laughed wantonly, and said, "This jade ruyi is usually among the same generation, but it is not popular. Uh, of course, if you plan to give it to your sister Li, maybe , should be, it’s still possible.”

After speaking, Liu Yufei took a special look at Li Shiyun. "I don't want this." Li Shiyun said, and looked at Jia Sidao meaningfully, with a hint of resentment in his eyes.Jia Sidao pondered for a while, maybe Li Shiyun is so sensitive, and soon thought that before the "big bet on stones", Jia Sidao promised to give her an emerald ornament, right? Of course, even though Jia Sidao was still thinking about this matter at this time, he would not say it out loud. Perhaps it would be a good idea to surprise her again when the time comes.Ever since, he just smiled faintly at Li Shiyun.Turning to Liu Yufei, he said, "Brother Liu, let me see, you should pay attention to yourself. This gift-giving belongs to the gift-giving, so be careful. If not, why don't you go and give some to that Ms. Xia Yi? Then, let her tell you, who are the potential buyers of your mitral pot at the auction?"

"This, even if I don't give it away, people should tell me." Liu Yufei said rather bachelorly, "How to say, it is also my property. Besides, I have long remembered what you said about being careful." It’s in my heart. Let’s talk about He Shen. It seems that the reason why his home was ransacked was because he gave a Ruyi to Jiaqing. And he didn’t grasp the timing of the gift. When Jiaqing became the prince, he was two days away from becoming the emperor.He was full of interest and sent a white jade wishful to Jiaqing.Then Jiaqing felt that He Shen had leaked the secret.I hid this concern for four years, and after four years of enthronement, I used this as an excuse to copy He Shen's house. So, gift giving is definitely a science.Even if the delivery is ready, delivery time, etc., you still need to pay more attention. " "Okay, you really plan to learn Heshen here, and you've been talking about Heshen for a long time." Jia Sidao couldn't help smiling wryly, and muttered, suddenly, he caught a glimpse of something and changed the subject. , asked, "By the way, what's the name of this thing?" While talking, Jia Sidao also pointed to the one next to Ruyi. On its tail, there was still a small braid-like thing, which should be tassel-shaped, a bit like the one left under the small lantern. kind. You must know that many things in antiques have established names.In order not to be like Li Shiyun, when he didn't understand, he made fun of Liu Yufei for not collecting large jasper ornaments, and made a small joke, Jia Sidao asked directly. Not knowing is not knowing, it is knowing. Even for some experts in antiques, it is difficult to tell how ugly they are when they are facing things in fields that they are not good at. "This one, it should be called Sui'er. Usually, it is made of red sandalwood with jasper inlaid on it. Sometimes it will carry such a slip." Liu Yufei explained, "Besides, I am looking at this place. You should look at the part where the handle of the tail of Ruyi is combined with the fringe. Don’t look at the color of the fringe here, it looks a bit old and looks fake. But this thing is like this. It may be used in the palace. It is dyed from mineral raw materials, so the color is like the color of coral. After a long time, it will be like this.” "But, the one over here, the color of the tassel, why does it have a bright feeling?" Jia Sidao pointed to the Ruyi one next to him. "Hehe, this folk thing." Liu Yufei said, "It looks pretty, but it's not necessarily good. It's like the one painted by Yangliu Qingnian. It looks like a vivid folk style, but it's missing a little bit. A royal atmosphere." "No wonder." Jia Sidao muttered, "You put Ruyi with brightly colored tassels on the bottom layer of the grid instead." While Jia Sidao was saying this, Li Shiyun on one side looked at his bewilderment with her watery eyes, as if she was telling: sometimes you don’t understand Bar? Jia Sidao couldn't help but glared at her angrily. On the other hand, Liu Yufei looked at the two people's flirtatious glances, pretending not to see them, and turned his head to one side, trying to keep out of sight.However, just as Jia Sidao was about to take Liu Yufei back to the living room, he suddenly found that there seemed to be a piece of porcelain under these jade ruyis.At the moment, I didn’t care about it, so I pulled it out and looked it over carefully. It was a small bowl, the color was warm and very bright, but the shape of the bowl was a little small, and it was still There is a gap. "Brother Liu, why is this thing here?" Jia Sidao couldn't help asking curiously. In fact, even if Jia Sidao didn't ask, Liu Yufei would naturally notice Jia Sidao's actions at this moment, glanced at it casually, and said: "This thing was actually handed down by the ancestors, and I don't know it myself." It’s very understandable. I’ve had a few porcelain experts look at it, and they say it’s an old thing, but I’m not sure if it’s something from the Qing Palace, so it can only be regarded as a general collection.” "Passed down from the ancestors?" Jia Sidao asked in doubt. "That's still fake." Liu Yufei said, blowing his beard and staring at his eyes, "I'll tell you, Xiao Jia, even though my family is in the jadeite business now, but as far as the ancestors are concerned, they are also from a scholarly family. Occasionally there is such a It's normal for one or two things to be handed down. According to my old man, I have a distant uncle who lives in the United States now." "Okay, then why don't your family pass down Yuan Qinghua?" Jia Sidao looked at Liu Yufei's complacent expression, and couldn't help saying something angrily, and Liu Yufei was speechless for a while. Seeing that it was almost noon, the three of them walked out of the basement, went outside, and had a casual meal.It's not that just because there is a woman like Li Shiyun, she has to be very particular.Li Shiyun also readily accepted this.Those who are out on business, especially among acquaintances, don't need to be so polite. Moreover, Jia Sidao and Liu Yufei hurried back to the villa after eating a few casual bites. In Liu Yufei's words, it will be the next whole afternoon, and he will start cutting stones. Jia Sidao also specifically asked: "Even if you want to cut stones, you don't have to hurry, right? Could it be that your funds are already so tight that you have to sell the jadeite in your hand before you can go to the jadeite fair to buy it? " However, Liu Yufei shook his head and said, "No matter how bad things are at the Emerald Market, my father will support me. I specially prepared this for the place we are going to at night. Oh , By the way, hurry up and open a few pieces to take a look, maybe, then you will have to bring that piece of glass to plant blue jadeite."
