golden escape

In the eyes of this middle-aged man, there should be riots caused by quarrels or fights here. He couldn't help but be in a hurry. Apart from this kind of thing, there would be so many people around, otherwise it could be said that it was caused by the jewelry and jade at this booth onlookers.

He was the main person in charge of the Jade Association in the small island country. In the jewelry and jade exhibitions that have been held for more than ten years, there have only been two or three scenes where the beauty of jewelry and jade has caused crowds to frantically watch.

However, during the two or three times of onlookers, the jewelry and jade exhibited on the booth were extremely beautiful and very rare. One of them was a huge jade ornament from China. Nakajima Friendship Jade Fair.

That exhibition was unprecedented in the world, and its visitor flow reached the peak of jade exhibitions over the years, but most of the people came to watch this wonder of the Five Mountains.

This ornament is nearly 2 meters high, about 1 meters wide, and 2 meters thick. Its weight can be called a giant jadeite, reaching 1 tons. It was made by a famous Chinese jade collector in Myanmar. The discovered stone was purchased at a huge sum of money and shipped back to the country. It took several months to peel and find the color of the stone, which is commonly known as the Jieshi, and then hired the director of the Tianjing Jade Factory and several The famous jade carving master and jade designer guided and planned the carving form of this jadeite.

Originally, the first plan was to make the Four Great Spirit Mountains, and the drawings had already been drawn. However, after in-depth research, it was discovered that when making the faces of the Buddha statues of the Four Great Spirit Mountains, patterns and colors would inevitably appear on the faces, so it was overturned. The original design, after several repeated studies by several masters, decided to apply art according to aptitude, and decided to use the theme of the wonders of the Five Sacred Mountains as the theme, including the decision to carve the Great Wall, an ancient Chinese building.

Then, a highly respected jade carving master personally designed and made it. After several cold and heat, it took nearly six years of painstaking efforts and meticulous carving. This rare giant jade carving in the world finally came out.

The five famous mountains have their own characteristics, but they are integrated without traces. The bottom of the jade carvings surrounds Shanhaiguan in the east and undulates in thousands of rivers and mountains. The green pines and cypresses cover the Great Wall of Jiayuguan in the west.It symbolizes the great and beautiful land of China.

On the top of the Great Wall, there are five famous mountains and cultural landscapes engraved on all sides. On the front is Dongyue Taishan, which is the only one among the five mountains; In ancient times, there is Mount Heng in the north, known as the most famous mountain in the North Pillar of Human Heaven; on the top half of the peak is Mount Song, a holy place of Buddhism located under Wuru Peak, which is tall and straight with green pines and cypresses; on the back is the majestic, steep and beautiful Mount Heng in Nanyue.

On the famous mountains, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain are engraved with their world-famous scenic spots and historical sites. The temples and temples are colorful, with solemn halls and pavilions, towering ancient towers, archways dripping green, flying bridges like rainbows, dangerous roads climbing clouds, and plank roads. Soaring in the sky, dotted with stars, and in various poses and with different expressions, it shows the splendid civilization of China for 5000 years.

The overall layout is very rigorous, dense and dense, patchwork, and natural. The artistic style changes thousands of times in unity. The picturesque platform, small bridges and flowing water, squirrels jumping branches, cranes soaring among the clouds, accompanied by tourists, are vivid and exquisite.

The material used for the wonders of the Five Sacred Mountains is huge, and the content is all-encompassing, which can be called the best in the world.

Now this middle-aged man vaguely remembers that at this exhibition, there were more turbulent crowds than now, but those people were orderly, far from the people in front of him, so desperately squeezed in, it was definitely a riot , and not the rare and incomparably rare jade like the wonders of the Five Sacred Mountains, the middle-aged man is very sure at this moment.

In the center of several men in suits was an old man in a simple robe. He smiled and did not walk in along the path separated by the security personnel, but nodded to those who greeted him.

"Brother, can you tell me why you gathered around this booth? Did something strange happen here?" The old man asked one of the middle-aged people calmly in English.

This middle-aged man is an Asian face. Seeing the excited face of this old man, he is undoubtedly from the island. He bowed deeply to the old man with respect, "Ha Yi, President Yamada, hello, Nothing strange happened here, but I heard a friend say that the jade placed in this dragon-shaped booth is very beautiful, it seems to be able to make people imagine and give people a wonderful feeling, so I also want to come here to have a look like this A miraculous thing."

"Oh, I can't believe that such a thing happened." Hearing what the middle-aged man said, the old man named Yamada expressed surprise on his face, and said in Japanese with some surprise.

The middle-aged man bowed again to President Yamada nervously, "President Yamada, I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I just heard from some people who have seen it that the jade displayed here is very impressive. People are shocked and unbelievable, but if you want to enter, you must answer a question from the person in charge of the booth."

The words spoken by the middle-aged man can't help but surprise President Yamada, who is wearing a simple robe, once again. The other exhibitors wish their booth would have more viewers, but the booth in front of them seems to be afraid that there will be too many people, and they still need to answer question.

It was the same as that of Wubu Siren. It was also the first time he saw such a thing. Looking at him, he was very interested in it. He didn't speak any more, but walked slowly forward.

There were already security personnel around, opening a path for Chairman Yamada so that he could directly lead to the booth.

The people around looked at Chairman Yamada with anticipation, anticipating what he would say after seeing the things on display at the booth. They hadn't gone in to see it yet, and they didn't believe that those who had seen it Lying words, and the President Yamada in front of him, the president of the Jade Association of the small island country, no matter what, he will not deceive everyone.

Li Zihao next to him was squeezed into the crowd, a little helpless, he and his uncle finished the pre-opening work together, and ran over directly, but within less than an hour of the opening, the place was full of black people, making people He tried his best and couldn't squeeze in, so he had to queue at the back.

In China, the name of his Li family may be good, but in the small island country, an international jewelry and jade exhibition, there are countless jewelry companies stronger than their Li family. Except for acquaintances, who would know him? who.

"Haha, with President Yamada here, he's about to show his true form here. He hired so many trustees to become famous. This kid is really a fucking prodigal. Maybe it's our money." Standing next to Li Decai A young man said gloatingly that he was Li Decai's second son, and he brought him to the exhibition this time to gain some experience.

Li Decai nodded slightly. Although the expression on his face was not as exaggerated as his son's, he was a little excited. It was something they had been looking forward to seeing Fang You stumble, "Xiao Biao, you can see the essence of the matter at a glance." , even if it is top jewelry, it is impossible for so many people to surround it, this party must have spent a lot of effort to find people to promote it."

Li Zihao shook his head slightly, it seemed that they regarded Fang You as an enemy, and the hatred of Fang You had already drowned their most basic IQ.

"Uncle, Fang You is very capable, so don't underestimate him. Don't forget that the top-quality jade that Fang You unwrapped in Pingzhou has been almost half a year now, and its size is too small. Master goes to carve, even if you don’t finish all the carvings, it’s okay to carve two or three pieces.” Li Zihao reminded with a smile that he couldn’t just watch his uncle fall into a misunderstanding and watch jokes from the sidelines.

Li Decai nodded, not paying much attention to it, "Whether those jadeites are as beautiful as in the legend is still a question."

Li Zihao stopped talking and looked at Fang You's booth. He had complicated thoughts about Fang You. Although his father and younger brother were ruined by Fang You, he couldn't bear the slightest bit of hatred, because all this was just They brought the blame on themselves, but based on this alone, he couldn't become friends with Fang You at all.

Maybe I was really a little too timid. The timid dared not leave the family, and the timid didn't even dare to hand in a bosom friend. Li Zihao sighed, his face a little downcast.

Surrounded by the crowd, President Yamada slowly approached the booth. Seeing the situation, some people who were about to answer Fang You's questions stood on both sides one after another.

Even some people who did not leave the entrance of the stage were dispersed to both sides by the security personnel, allowing Chairman Yamada to come here safely.

Seeing this, Chairman Yamada frowned slightly, looked coldly at the middle-aged man in a suit next to him, and then Wei Wei came to the entrance of the booth. In the middle of the entrance, there was a young man sitting safely behind, beside him , there was also a table full of papers, and when he took a closer look, the old man found that an unfinished piece of paper on it described a characteristic of jade.

"Hello, little friend, can I ask which country you are from and which jewelry company you belong to." Chairman Yamada didn't go in directly, but asked Fang You with a smile.

Fang You smiled, Jiang is still old and hot, it is impossible to find out his own details, "I am from China, as for which jewelry company I belong to, it may not matter, we come to the jade exhibition, it is not a big deal to watch Not a jewelry company, but beautiful jewelry that exudes glamour.”

"Hehe, that's very good. In one simple sentence, it tells the core meaning of the jade exhibition. It seems that this little friend has a deep research on jade. Can I go in and take a look? For you who are famous all over the world I am very curious about the jade at the exhibition." Hearing Fang You's words, Chairman Yamada's eyes lit up slightly, and he said with a smile.

Fang You glanced at him calmly, and then said softly: "Anyone can go in, but they also need to answer my question."

Fang You's words immediately made the middle-aged man in suit who yelled just now and directed the security personnel to open a way, suddenly jumped out, and said angrily: "Boy from China, do you know who this is?" , this is President Yamada of the Jade Association of the Small Island Country, it is your honor for his old man to enter your booth..."

He didn't believe at all that the jade in this young Chinese boy's booth would be as miraculous as rumored by others. The wonders of the Five Sacred Mountains are something that cannot be copied. In his view, Chinese jade is gradually being overtaken by small island countries.

He didn't believe that a young boy who didn't even have a staff at the booth could display such fine jewelry and jade. Maybe it was really like what others were talking about.

Hearing this reprimand, the smile on Li Decai's face became wider, as if Fang You's destined to be miserable appeared in front of his eyes.

It's a pity that he hadn't finished speaking, but was interrupted by President Yamada, "Muraguchi-san, step down for me."

Hearing President Yamada's suppressed anger, the middle-aged man immediately bowed to him and apologized.

President Yamada ignored him, but smiled directly at Fang You, "Little friend, can you tell me why you need everyone to answer a question before you can enter."

Fang You glanced at him flatly, "Only those who understand jade can love and cherish jade, can understand the meaning of jade, and regard jade as a precious thing like life, not just a valuable thing. items of value."

President Yamada smiled slightly, and looked at the young man with serious eyes, and the young man seemed to say what was in his heart, "Okay, little friend, let me ask you a question, and I will see if I can be an understandable person." Jade man."

"The ancients once said that jade has five virtues. What are the five virtues?" Fang You said calmly. This is also the most obvious reason why jade is so beautiful and loved by everyone.

Hearing Fang You's question, most people looked at a loss, but there were some smiling people who seemed to know the answer.

President Yamada smiled, "Little friend, this question is really difficult. If you don't know much about jade, you can't answer it at all. Yu has five virtues: benevolence, righteousness, wisdom, courage, and cleanliness. I don't know what I said is right. wrong."

Fang You nodded lightly, "Jade's softness and moistness represent kindness, jade's appearance and inner consistency represent righteousness, jade's clear and melodious voice represents wisdom, and jade's unyielding, tenacious, It represents courage, and the innocence of jade, which is not stained by mud, represents integrity. Jade has five virtues, and is loved by the world, please come in." After finishing speaking, Fang You stepped out of the way.

Hearing Fang You's words, Chairman Yamada showed surprise on his face. Although most people know the five virtues, but if they were asked to say what virtues jade represents, most people probably wouldn't be able to. Come up with the answer.

"Little friend, that's a good point. I'll take a look at the jade you exhibited first, and we'll discuss it later." President Yamada took a deep look at Fang You, and walked into the booth with a smile on his face. .

The middle-aged man followed suit, but was stopped by Fang You, who gave him a cold look, "If you want to enter, yes, answer me a question."

"You boy, if you continue to disrespect President Yamada like this, believe it or not, I will kick you out of this exhibition." The middle-aged man said angrily, but he borrowed the name of the old man to suppress Fang You, As he spoke, he came up again, looking at his appearance, it seemed that he was about to make a move.

Fang You shook his head and smiled faintly, "People without morality and fate, how can they see my treasures, and want to kick me out of the exhibition, as you like, but if you dare to touch me, you don't need to kick me, I will leave by myself Exhibition."

On this middle-aged man, Fang You disdained to use Tai Chi, hitting him would only dirty his hands.

"Shangfen at the entrance of the village, if you don't have the ability to come in, just stay outside for me, otherwise, you'll get out, if you dare to touch this little friend, I will make you unable to eat and walk around." Walking into the room, he was being surprised by the room. Chairman Yamada, who was attracted by the high-quality decoration and the words of constant praise next to the showcase, heard the angry voice of the village entrance, and suddenly he said with a gloomy expression.

"Hayi, President Yamada, I was wrong." For President Yamada, he had a kind of respect and panic from his heart, and immediately bowed deeply, stood beside him, and looked at Fang You coldly.

Fang You sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, threatened himself to break the rules, and there was no door. If the middle-aged man dared to touch himself, he didn't mind using it as fertilizer for the land.

Chairman Yamada, who walked into the booth, was deeply shocked at this time. The history and murderousness of Liu Guanzhang Jade, the melting of the frost of the colorful Jade in spring, the blooming of spring flowers, the royal purple Jade, and the glamorous beauty of the Nine Heavens Xuannv , The shocking appearance made the heart that hadn't trembled for a long time tremble again.

The beauty of these emeralds lies in their extremely rare colors, but what is even bigger is the ingenious carving.

Now, he finally understood why this young man was so proud, why he couldn't see anything inside the booth from the outside, and why he asked others to answer a question.

In his opinion, answering a question and being able to see these three incomparably beautiful emeralds is simply the greatest happiness.

Similarly, he also understood what the young man said before, only those who understand jade can understand the meaning contained in the jade, and those nouveau riche are not qualified to watch these things at all, because they can't calm down , watch jade.

Under the waiting of the crowd, President Yamada actually watched it for nearly half an hour before slowly walking out from the inside, with a strong expression of excitement and surprise on his face, which already explained everything.

Looking at Fang You, he sighed and smiled. He really didn't expect that such a beautiful jadeite would be hidden in this international jewelry and jade exhibition.

What he didn't expect was that the profound jade culture bred in China for thousands of years could be so shocking.
