The Book of Appreciation

When Fatty Qian heard that Wu Di was going to Guangdong Province, he took the initiative to call and said:

"Xiao Wu, do you still remember the boss Lu Ganglu you met in Ruili? Fat brother can't accompany you this time, but you must go to him first, and he will arrange the itinerary for you, save time, the important thing It’s safe, and you can still see some stones from the homes of fellow villagers. Go, fat brother, I wish you a big killing, and the good stones will be dealt with locally, weakening their financial strength, those ghosts, on the Myanmar public market They were having a good time!"

Chang Linlin's phone call followed closely,

"Xiao Wu, I heard from your fourth brother that you want us two to accompany you to gamble on stones?"

"It's nothing, I'm already at the airport now! My little brother doesn't wink anymore, how dare he disturb Sisao's honeymoon? We're going through the security check, bye, come back and give Sisao a good stone!"

Wu Di wiped off his cold sweat, so let's go quickly, it's really not safe to stay at home!

Yangcheng is the third largest city in China, the country's economic, financial, trade, shipping and exhibition center, and the southern political, military, cultural, scientific and educational center.Yangcheng has a history of more than 2000 years. It is a famous historical and cultural city in China, the oldest foreign trade port, and one of the starting points of the Maritime Silk Road. It is known as the "Millennium Commercial Capital".

The sun in Yangcheng in October is still scorching hot, but Wu Di didn’t enjoy much. As soon as he got off the plane, Lu Gang took him to the store in Baiyun Qu. After you get acquainted with this typical southerner, you will find that he has a good smile The boldness of the northerners can also be regarded as the temper towards Wu Di, so the two soon became familiar with each other.

"Xiao Wu, you can't see any very good stones here now. The public sale in Myanmar is about to start, and everyone is raising funds, selling all that can be sold. There are even fewer merchants who receive clear materials."

Wu Di shook his head helplessly, I can't tell you that I'm here to raise funds, can I?Immediately, he slapped his thigh, that is, forget about this, there is no jadeite merchant bidding, this bright material can't be sold at a high price?

"However, it's good to come at this time. In order to participate in the public offering, some merchants with insufficient strength will sell all their collections for many years. From your point of view, it is of course a drizzle."

Wu Di knew that Lu Gang was a compliment, and even Fatty Qian didn't know his level, let alone him!He smiled and was not humble, just said:

"Then please trouble Brother Lu, I have never been here before, and now my eyes are smeared."

"Don't bother, don't bother, the fat guy keeps telling me to treat you well, and he doesn't even think about it, I, Lu Gang, will treat my friend badly? I really don't care about it!"

"Hehe, fat brother is jealous! He is not free without me, so he can't come!"

Lu Gang's "Stone from Other Mountains" store is not small, and with the Jieshi area and warehouse area behind it, it is over a thousand square meters, and this street is almost full of shops that gamble with stones. It seems that Yangcheng is a big gambling city. In the stone market, the atmosphere of betting on stones is much stronger than that in the capital.

"Xiao Wu, have you solved the batch of stones you got back from Ruili? How about it? You are a celebrity in the circle now!"

"Damn it, it's not like there are still people thinking about the crazy King Philosophy, right? This is a big blemish in my life! Sunglasses! Hats! Masks! I won't kill me!"

At noon, Lu Gang found two friends to accompany him. Zheng Yuming, who was white and chubby, was not at all like a Cantonese.Another black and thin middle-aged man named Wu Yongquan was Lu Gang's guide for Wu Di. He could still accompany him in Yangcheng, but Wu Yongquan had to rely on him elsewhere.

Both of them had heard of Wu Di, and they had been ordered by Lu Gang beforehand, so they were extremely polite. Wu Di took a big gulp of beer helplessly, and sighed:

"This person is afraid of being famous and a pig is afraid of being strong. That's what he said! But not many people will recognize me, right?"

"Everyone has heard of it, but they haven't seen it. Don't worry, but if you come to Yangcheng again, it will be hard to say."

"Damn it! Come again? It's enough to go crazy once, who has nothing to do with money?"

After eating, I walked around Lu Gang's shop. As expected, the name of the shop was the same. Besides emerald wool, there are many other stones here, such as Tian Huangshi and chicken blood stone. Others such as topaz, amber, turquoise, agate, There are also many crystals and so on.

Wu Di looked at the few woolen materials, pointed to a pile of Tian Huang and asked:

"Can Tian Huang gamble?"

"Of course you can gamble. The main thing is to bet on the presence of jadeite, and then bet on the color and species. Tianhuang bets on stones as well. First bet on the presence, then bet on the texture, and then bet on the color. Regardless of the high price of woolen materials, the unit price of Tianhuang is the same. In fact, it is higher. Wool materials cost dozens or even hundreds of kilograms, and there are many tons. , The crow skin is useless. Even if the emerald turns green, it is a success, but the yellow field is not necessarily Tianhuang! Lao Lu is the largest supplier of Tianhuang raw stone in Yangcheng, and he has a lot of good products. How about today we Take a gamble first?"

Zheng Yuming is also a person who likes to gamble with stones. Regardless of whether Wu Di knows it or not, after a lot of crackling, he will bet on Tianhuang if he pulls Wu Di.Wu Di also felt a little itchy, and said with a smile:

"Okay, today I will help Brother Lu clear his inventory, and find two good stones for him to lose weight!"

"If I reduce it even more, a gust of wind can blow it away! Let's go directly to the warehouse. Putting these outside is purely for fooling people."

Seeing that the other two didn't respond at all, Wu Di couldn't help but feel sad for those tourists who cameo to gamble with stones. It turned out that they were the ones who were fooled and taken advantage of!

"These stones are all brought from Fujian. Tianhuang mining was banned in 05, and most of the stones that are traded now are some stones hidden by local farmers. The price of Tianhuang has increased by at least a hundred times in recent years. It is worthy of the name." It is called "Emperor Stone".

Tianhuang stone, named for its yellow color, is produced under the rice fields on both sides of the "Shoushan River" in Shoushan Xiang, Fucheng City. It is one of the best varieties of Shoushan stone.It has a broad sense and a narrow sense: in the broad sense, Tianhuangshi refers to the field pit stone, and in the narrow sense, Tianhuangshi refers to the yellow-haired one among the field pit stones.In terms of physical properties, arts and crafts characteristics, Tianhuang stone is basically the same or similar to Shoushan stone, but because of its rarity and cost, it has long become the most famous seal stone variety.

Tianhuang raw stone is different from jadeite wool, and there are almost no large pieces. Wu Di didn't know how precious his 1500-gram Tianhuang stone was until he saw the rough stone here. There are thousands of rough stones in this warehouse. If there is no Tianhuang, let’s not talk about it, just by looking at the size, you can’t find a few that are so big!

Compared with jadeite wool, Tianhuang raw stone has obvious oil seepage phenomenon, so the surface looks smooth and greasy than water stone wool, and this is an important basis for judging the quality of Tianhuang stone, so some people use various methods to increase the oil on the surface. fake surname.There are also some stone merchants who choose some alpine stones with radish patterns and red veins for dyeing. They first soak the alpine stones in almond water, then boil them with coptis or gamboge water, and then use acidic materials to clean the surface. Carry out corrosion to form a white transparent or opaque appearance, showing the effect of stone skin.As for Changhua Tianhuang Stone, it is completely a product of interests, and its composition is different from Tianhuang.

Wu Di saw a stone with a gray skin and a slightly rough surface. The original stone in the stone skin is fine and moist, with a mild yellow color. The whole stone can faintly show fine and dense radish patterns. These are the typical characteristics of Tianhuang stone.However, upon closer inspection, the yellow is brighter and slightly flirtatious, and the radish lines seem to have a little more rough edges. Wu Di smiled and shook his head, wondering whether it was Lu Gang's handwriting or he was deceived.

Wu Dilian looked at dozens of stones before he settled on one. It was slightly smaller than a baby's fist, and the whole body was wrapped in a light yellow stone skin that was almost egg white in color. It was smooth and smooth without obvious edges and corners.If you look closely, there is a place the size of a mung bean that reveals the stone inside, which looks warm and lovely, slightly transparent.The whole stone has obvious oil leakage, and it seems to exude a charming brilliance that is different from that of jadeite.

Wu Di rubbed it with his fingers, took out the flashlight, and irradiated it closely, and there were faintly visible lines of fine texture, like the fibers of a white radish that were planed, and the whole stone was integrated without any red veins.

Wu Di nodded, glanced at the price, 150 million, almost reaching 1 yuan per gram, he memorized the number of the stone, and then looked down.

In the eyes of people who like to gamble on stones, time has no concept. It often happens that after looking at a stone, they can’t stand up because they are too focused, squatting for too long, and the blood in the legs is not smooth.

Wu Di took a fancy to two more stones, and increased the price of the three stones. He couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile. The real value of Tianhuang lies in carving. If there is no good carver, even the best stones may be useless!Holding this stone in your hand, it cannot be cashed in immediately, unlike jadeite wool, which even a novice would dare to dissect.His current situation is not suitable for gambling on Tianhuang, a few stones will squeeze his poor 600 million yuan to the brim!

After weighing it up, he went back and picked up the first stone he liked, activated the ability of the Heavenly Book, and saw through it.

As soon as his left hand touched the stone, a warm and cool breath went up his arm, and Wu Di got the message instantly,

"Uesaka Shirata Dongshi!"
