The antique street in the county, also known as the collectibles market, is a small street located in the north of the city. Although this small street is not wide, it is quite long, with a length of two kilometers. These doors are always open.

Daji is a collectibles exchange meeting spontaneously organized by Tibetan friends in the collectibles market. After all, it is entertainment. There is only one day of such a big fair in a week. On this day, Tibetan friends from this county and neighboring counties , will bring their own collections and set up stalls in the market to sell them. In the neighboring counties, the big fairs are staggered.

The big fair in Yungu County is scheduled for Monday. Yang Ming was lucky, and today happened to be in time for the big fair in the collectibles market.

The crowds in the collectibles market are no less than those in the farmer's market. In the farmer's market, people are buying and selling daily necessities, and the consumers are ordinary people from nearby villages and towns.

The big set in the collectibles market sells antiques, and the consumer groups come from all corners of the country, such as Beijing, Tianjin, Liaoning, Shanghai, Guangdong, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, everywhere, Occasionally there will be a few foreigners mixed in.

As soon as Yang Ming walked into the antique street, he was a little dazzled. On both sides of the street, there were sellers of woodware, copperware, porcelain, lacquerware, jadeware, ancient calligraphy and paintings, the Four Treasures of the Study, and old clothes... All kinds of collections are full, some are real and some are fake, some are new and some are old, this will test the eyesight of Tibetan friends, if you drill a hole, there are also those who have lost millions of dollars. Yes, there are those who earn tens of millions without capital, and this is the charm of collecting, which is already similar to gambling.

Countless Tibetan friends wandered along the street, hoping to find good things. Yang Ming was also among the crowd, and he mainly looked at jade wares.

"Yaya, can you tell the real and fake jade?" When Yang Ming was dazzled by the exquisite jade wares, he finally realized that his thinking was too simple. Collecting is not something anyone can do. , Here, there are so many stories, true and false, it is too challenging for people's psychology.

"No, Yaya can only scan objects with life signs." Yaya said.

"Then, I want to buy jade, how can I tell if it's real or not?" Yang Ming said.

"If the master knows the composition of jade, you can buy a 'fertilizer processing machine', which has a material composition analysis system." Yaya said.

"How big is the fertilizer processing machine you're talking about?" Yang Ming asked.

"There are big ones, the small ones are only the size of a toothpick, and the big ones are the size of a flashlight." Yaya said.

"The fertilizer processing machine is so small?" Yang Ming asked in surprise.

"Of course, the fertilizer processing machine only releases microwaves to vibrate ore and microorganisms into inorganic and organic fertilizers that can be absorbed by crops. It doesn't need a large volume." Yaya said.

"How many gold coins?" Yang Ming asked.

"Due to the number of functions, the price ranges from 10 to 100 gold coins." Yaya said.

"Buy the one with the most complete functions, and put it in my pocket later." Yang Ming ordered.

"Okay, master." Yaya responded quickly, and then opened the sales system to buy.

Suddenly, Yang Ming felt the pocket of his trousers bulge up. He touched it with his hand and found a cylinder the size of a flashlight. He took it out of his pocket and looked at it before his eyes. He saw that the cylinder was 15 meters long cm, 4 cm in diameter, it looks like a flashlight, in the middle of the cylinder, there is a long LCD screen, which shows the status, and there are two buttons at one end, one is green, and it says 'on' , one is red with 'off' written on it, it is the switch of this machine.

On the other end, there are more buttons, a black one with 'test' written on it, which is used to detect the composition of substances, facing the black button is a small black light bulb; a blue one, written on it "Fen", which decomposes inorganic substances, is facing the blue button, which is a small blue light bulb; a purple one, which says "fermentation", which catalyzes the fermentation of organic substances, is facing The purple button is a small purple light bulb.These three small light bulbs are evenly distributed on the edge of this end, forming an equilateral triangle with each other.

In addition, there are 10 buttons representing strength, which are written with ten Arabic numerals from 0 to 9. Next to 0, there is a word 'weak', and next to 9 is written a word 'strong'.

Yang Ming got this baby, so he pressed the green button. On the LCD screen, just like a mobile phone was turned on, there was a burst of light flashing, and then the status was displayed, which was in the on state.

Yang Ming walked to a jade stall, took a milky white jade pendant from above, held a fertilizer processing machine, and illuminated it with a small black light bulb. On the LCD screen, a group of long chemical formula.

"It seems that the chemical composition of jade is silicate, right? Then this long one is not true..." Yang Ming thought, and put down this jade pendant. He still has the chemical formula of silicate. I know, this jade pendant is obviously artificially synthesized.

Yang Ming checked the jade wares on the jade stall one by one, but helplessly, although there were many jade wares on the stall, none of them were real, they were all a long list of chemical formulas.

"I said, young man, what do you want?" The person watching the booth was a middle-aged woman with a scarf wrapped around her head. Seeing Yang Ming pick up and put down the jade wares on her booth one by one, she felt a little uncomfortable. happy.

"Sister, do you have any real jade here?" Yang Ming asked straightforwardly.

"Isn't this all true?" The middle-aged woman was even more displeased.

"Sister, we are old acquaintances, why are you fooling the children? You are all fake, how can any of them be true?" A middle-aged man in a jacket came up and said something.

"I said whether you are a person of virtue or not. Is it your business? Are you showing up everywhere? Why should you do it..." The middle-aged woman raised her eyebrows and cursed at the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man walked away awkwardly, and the middle-aged woman said to Yang Ming again: "Do you want it? If you don't want it, don't rummage around, don't stand in front of my booth, I still have to do business..."

Yang Ming shook his head, got up and left, and walked towards other stalls. His ears were sharp, and he could still hear the cursing voice of the middle-aged woman: "What the hell, pretending to understand, why are you charging so much money?"

"In this world, there are really all kinds of people. They deceive people with fake products, are exposed by others, and call them wicked. They can't be fooled. It's another way of saying..." Yang Ming secretly despises in his heart.

"Hey! Big brother, why are you here full of rocks?" Yang Ming saw a small stall full of big rocks, so he couldn't help coming up curiously, and asked.

"Little brother, don't you understand? This is uncut jade, and it can be called wool material. They all come from Hetian." The man who watched the stall was a man in his thirties, with a pair of smiling eyes. People who saw him thought he was laughing, so friends in the circle gave him a nickname, Brother Xiao.

"Where is Hetian? Is there jade in it?" Yang Ming still knows Hetian Meiyu.

"You can't say for sure, otherwise it's called gambling stones. If the little brother is lucky, maybe he can really open one." Brother Xiao said.

These stones are actually leftovers from others, otherwise, it would be impossible to run from the northwest to the antique street in North China. The reason why they have not been cut open is because these stones are intact. If you can sell it for a price, if you cut it open, you will be lucky enough to come across jade the size of a fingernail. If you are unlucky, you will just throw it into the trash can.

The accuracy of modern detection instruments has reached [-] to [-]% for whether there is jade in the stone. In addition, there are very few stones with jade. Therefore, the remaining stones picked by these people are basically empty stones. .

"How do you sell this uncut jade?" Yang Ming asked.

"Regardless of size, one thousand yuan is the same price." Brother Xiao stretched out a finger and said.

"Can I choose?" Yang Ming asked.

"Look at what you said, it's a jade bet, of course I let you choose." Brother Xiao laughed.

"Then I won't be polite." Yang Ming smiled, and took the 'fertilizer processing machine' to start testing one by one. Not to mention, it really made Yang Ming pick up the leak. After this test, a total of five were found. There's something in it.

"It's just five yuan." Yang Ming handed over 5000 yuan.

"Little brother, do you want to cut it open and have a look?" Brother Xiao looked at Yang Ming holding a flashlight and took a photo there, and then he chose five yuan. It felt a little mysterious, could it be possible to pick it out like this?

"Can you cut stones here?" Yang Ming asked in surprise.

"Of course, we offer a one-stop service for selling stones and dissecting stones..." Brother Xiao pointed to the small cutting machine that was put aside.

"Can it be processed?" Yang Ming asked.

"That won't work..." Brother Xiao smiled mischievously.

"Would you charge a processing fee for dissecting the stone?" Yang Ming asked again.

"Of course it won't be charged. The processing fee is included in the price." Brother Xiao said.

"In that case, let's cut it..." Yang Ming nodded.

So, Brother Xiao started his car, and then the engine drove the motor on the car, and the motor drove the cutting machine. There was a "buzzing" sound, and the cutting machine started to rotate quickly. Stone cutting is a new thing. Many Tibetan friends gathered around and watched curiously.

"Chi..." There was a sharp rubbing sound, and the first stone was slowly cut corner by corner. Suddenly, a fingernail-sized piece of pure white jade with a greasy luster appeared in the cut. , this jade is warm and delicate, like sheep fat.

"Wow..." This discovery immediately made the onlookers exclaim.

"Little brother, you're lucky. There's jade in it, and it's still suet jade..." Brother Xiao looked at it with enthusiasm, and then cut it more carefully and polished it slowly. After all the stones wrapped in the outer skin were polished away, everyone The collective lost their voices, this was actually a piece of jade the size of an adult's fist.

Brother Xiao's eyes were red, and he didn't know whether it was jealousy or excitement. He handed the heavy jade material to Yang Ming, and patted Yang Ming's shoulder vigorously: "Little brother, you sent it, this piece Kodama, worth at least 100 million, this is the top Hetian sheep fat jade."

"Hehe," Yang Ming just smiled. The million dollars in funds really can't make him excited, "Brother's craftsmanship is good, let's open it..." I didn't know where to find a black plastic bag, and directly Put the jade in it.

"Okay!" Brother Xiao nodded, and then went to cut jade again.

Slowly, the four pieces of jade were cut open, and the people around them almost forgot to breathe, jealous, extremely jealous, jealous, endless jealousy, five fist-sized Hetian mutton jade, all entered In Yang Ming's pocket, there are more than ten pieces of small jade material.

Brother Xiao's hands were trembling, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh and said, "Little brother, next time, I will take care of my brother's business." The top-level beautiful jade made him jealous. These five pieces of jade originally belonged to him, but he sold them for 500 yuan, and now he feels pain in his heart.

"Hehe, I must be sure. Brother will enter Xinshi in the future. Remember to inform brother. What is the phone number of brother?" Yang Ming took out his mobile phone.

Brother Xiao gave a number, and after Yang Ming dialed, he turned around and got out of the crowd with the jade in his hand, and disappeared into the crowd in two or three strokes. It would be troublesome to be stared at by people who make jade, so it is better to disappear from everyone's sight as soon as possible.

"These five pieces of jade, if you make jade pendants, you can make about [-] of them, and you can make more than a dozen of scattered jade. I don't know if there is any jade processing in the county?" Yang Ming held the heavy jade, thinking muttered.

Finally, after thinking about it, it is better to ask Mrs. Liu to help the staff after I go back, whether I want jade bi, jade pendant, jade pendant or something, I thought it was simple at first, and there are many ways in it... Yang Ming, who basically achieved his goal , Immediately left the collectibles market, met Lao Yang who was waiting outside, then quickly left the county town and went home.

Just as Yang Ming left, four or five people ran out from the Antique Street. They looked around and couldn't help but sigh. It's a pity, this person ran too fast, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye.

When I got home, it was only 11 o'clock. On the roof, a pair of somersault pigeons were bouncing on it. The young pigeons were almost grown up, and the old pigeons were starting to hatch their second nest. Grass, There is no delay in building a new nest or removing eggs.

In the yard, the puppies lazily fell asleep under the tree, the corner of the wall, and the root of the fence. Two or three chicks were digging and eating under the root of the fence, and their big paws were digging under the root of the fence. There are big pits one by one.

In this harmonious atmosphere, Wei Qingqing and Liu Nannan were picking chestnuts together under the chestnut tree. In a large dustpan at their feet, the chestnuts were almost on the tip. Dustpan, the little nose sniffed vigorously in the dustpan.

"Are you back? Did you buy it?" Wei Qingqing saw the transport truck parked outside the door, and went up to meet him.

"I bought it, but it's not a jade pendant, but a jade material, and it still needs to be processed. I'm not familiar with the county. I don't know where there is jade processing, and I don't know what kind of processing it is. I just brought the jade material back. Now, let Aunt Liu give her an opinion first, and then we can process it." Yang Ming got out of the car, handed the black plastic bag to Wei Qingqing, and went into the house to drink water. No, he didn't drink a sip of water, his throat was so dry that he was on fire.

"What?" Liu Nannan also approached curiously.

Wei Qingqing opened the plastic bag, and the two of them came up to watch together. They saw five fist-sized mutton fat jade lying quietly in the bag, with scattered stone stubble on them. Yushi paled in comparison and was subconsciously ignored by the two women.

"This... is it jade? It seems to be of good quality..." Liu Nannan was a little obsessed, and his eyes lingered on the five pieces of beautiful jade.

In other words, the Chinese have a special feeling for jade. A gentleman is like jade, and a beauty is like jade, which can reflect people's admiration for jade.

"It's so beautiful..." Wei Qingqing murmured softly, also fascinated.

At this time, Yang Ming came out with a big peach, and said while eating: "I don't know if there is any jade processing in the county, why don't we go back to the city to find a jewelry store, most jewelry stores have jade processing Jade."

"Processing jade?" Liu Nannan muttered softly, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said loudly: "I know where there is, we have it in Liujia Village, my grandfather Liu is engaged in jade processing, and his grandson even opened a house in the county As for the face of jade processing, decades of old craftsmanship."

"Really?" Yang Ming smiled, "Then I would like to thank Nan Nan, if your grandpa Liu's craftsmanship is so good, I will give you a jade pendant when it is finished."

The value of jade is half in the craftsmanship and half in the material. A good craftsman can double the value of a piece of jade several times, and even become a priceless treasure.

"No, no, let me remind you first that Grandpa Liu's asking price is very expensive... But the craftsmanship is definitely the best. When I was young, Grandpa Liu used stones to carve some small animals for us, as if they were alive." Liu Nannan blushed a little.

"Forget about jade...you forgot to bring your mobile phone when you left in the morning. Not long after you left, Mom called and said that it was the matter we mentioned yesterday. They thought about it and thought it was okay. Ask Are we serious?" Wei Qingqing said after recovering from her obsession with jade.

"What's the matter?" Yang Ming was a little puzzled.

"Why are you like this? You forgot what you said about the wedding yesterday?" Wei Qingqing was a little dissatisfied.

"Oh! You're talking about the wedding in the evening, right? What did Mom say?" Yang Ming suddenly remembered.

"Mom said, if we hold the wedding in the evening, you leave at three o'clock in the morning, then you can arrive at our house at ten o'clock in the morning, and then you can return at five o'clock in the afternoon. In this way, we don't have to get married twice. , if only the wedding time is changed to the evening, and all other ceremonies remain the same, there will basically be no trouble, except that the guests may be hungry for a whole day." Wei Qingqing said.

"Okay! Let's do it like this. Change the wedding time to the afternoon. You only get married once in your life. What's the matter if you get married twice." Yang Ming's eyes lit up.

"Hehe, it would be great if there was a sedan chair..." Wei Qingqing said with some longing.

"Then when we get married, how about using our transport vehicle and changing the rear compartment into a sedan chair?" Yang Ming said.

Wei Qingqing's eyes lit up, and when she was about to applaud, Liu Nannan spoke first: "This...isn't that good? I remember that during the funeral, the sedan chair was pulled by a tractor, and the coffin was placed inside the sedan chair."

With one word from the little girl, she poured a basin of cold water on the top of the two of them, and the two of them couldn't help but react in their hearts. If the back compartment of the truck was really changed into a sedan chair, it would really be no different from a funeral, of course. In fact, there is a big difference between a sedan chair and a funeral sedan chair, but modern people are unfamiliar with this thing, and it is easy to confuse them.

"However, it's okay to paint the cars in bright red, put red happy characters on them, and add more red flowers..." The little girl Liu Nannan couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive, so she added in a low voice.

"Then use a bridal sedan chair. There is a saying? It's the first time a girl gets on a bridal sedan chair. I will use a bridal sedan chair. A few days ago, I saw a couple using a bridal sedan chair for their wedding on the Internet." Wei Qing Qing said.

Wei Qingqing's attitude was very firm. After all, a woman gets married once in her life, why don't she sit back in the bridal sedan chair?My own transport vehicle is more stable than a car, and it doesn't bump at all when sitting in the compartment.

If you put a sofa bed inside, put a coffee table, and get some fruit snacks...it will be beautiful along the way.

"Okay, let's use the bridal sedan chair." Yang Ming nodded, he had already made up his mind, and later he would buy another transport vehicle in the sales system and directly transform it into a float. , Just use it as a caravan... But, Qingqing, is she still a big girl?Aren't you already a young woman?

ps: Ask for recommendation, ask for collection...
