The blood jade is produced in the snowy mountains of the Western Regions. Because of the steep terrain and the very small reserves, each piece is a priceless treasure, and the pure color of the blood jade in Qi Xiao's hands is even more priceless.

A few years ago, the Western Regions paid tribute to this piece of blood jade. Because of its delicate texture and rare such a high-quality product, it was polished and smooth and presented to Qi Xiao with the original jade. Qi Xiao saw that the blood jade was smooth and delicate, and it was just right for playing in the palm of his hand. I didn't send someone to process and carve it, and I took it with me as a habit, but I didn't expect it to come in handy this time.

The word 1 taels poured out from thin lips like a cloud of smoke, like an ordinary conversation between hawkers in the market asking for prices. Compared with the panicked expressions on the faces of the two of them, it looks particularly funny.

After the two of them left, Yang Huai was puzzled and said: "Master, if you let the wind spread, don't you just want others to collect this jade? Why didn't you sell it?"

The living room returned to silence, and Cicada was still singing tirelessly. Qi Xiao rested his forehead with his hands a little tiredly, "They are just small fish exploring the way. The big fish are behind, so don't be impatient."

Yang Huai opened the brocade box just now, and there were some special ingredients in Jiangzhou. Qi Xiao just waved his hand to let him accept it, and without looking at it, he turned the finger on the thumb and quietly closed his eyes and frowned in thought.

Only two days later, a servant knocked on the gate of the courtyard.The blue gown was clean, and he bowed and invited Qi Xiao to Situ's Mansion, saying that his master wanted to meet.

The servant was respectful, and his words were measured, but he didn't mention a word about the blood jade from the beginning to the end.

A carriage was waiting outside the door, and Qi Xiao and Yang Huai drove all the way to Situ Mansion, the high courtyard of the Zhumen, and the deep green brick corridor. Surrounded by bamboo forests and camphor trees, it is secluded and secluded. When you step on the stone steps, you can see the book "Zhong Yu Ji" written on the plaque on your head.

Walking in through the door, the layout of the room is simple, a walnut pan incense burner is placed on a nanmu square table, and the Eight Immortals crossing the sea are meticulously hand-carved. Calm and calm, diluting a lot of impetuousness in the hot summer.

If you take a closer look, the simple layout is all extremely fine things. On the pear blossom solid wood double-sided carved flower table, the green leaves of Clivia are like swords. The flowers on the top are blooming vigorously. The stamens look like a flame from a distance. It is blooming fiercely on the emerald green branches and leaves, and the flower pot where this pot of Clivia is planted is actually a Jun porcelain halo spot vase, the color is red at the bottom and blue at the top, and the transition in the middle is like clouds and mist. Clivia's dignified and solemn, somewhat nondescript.

Walking to the shelf to look at the porcelain and jade ornaments on it, any of them is expensive. When seeing the second floor, a tough old man walked through the door with a smile. The visitor was in his early sixties, with white hair A patch of gray mixed in the black hair.

The old man was Situ Lin, and after greeting each other, Situ Lin stroked his beard and nodded slightly to Qi Xiao, "Young Master Chu really lives up to his reputation, he is a talented person, and he will be a fearsome future generation."

It seems that the two people who came two days ago reported the matter to Situ Lin, and Qi Xiao smiled humbly: "Boss Situ praised me, I am just a fledgling junior, I don't know much about many things, and I have to count on your boss care."

Situ Lin spread his hands openly to indicate to sit down, "I heard that Mr. Chu is in the stone business, he is really a promising young man, when I was your age, I only helped with housekeeping at home."

"It's just a few small shops. I came to Jiangzhou this time to hope to open up some business opportunities."

While talking, a servant came up with tea, Yang Huai just wanted to reach out to take it, Qi Xiaoxu raised his hand to stop it, sipped the tea with a smile and praised: "Good tea, Junshan Yinzhen, clear and sweet."

"I didn't expect Mr. Chu to be a person who understands tea." Situ Lin smiled sincerely, and Qi Xiao was a little happy to know this tea, "This tea is produced by a few old tea trees on Dongting Mountain, and it only produces about ten catties a year. It’s worth a thousand dollars.”

Qi Xiao nodded and smiled, "It seems that Boss Situ not only studies art, but also is very good at tea art." Putting the teacup in his hand before his eyes, "The Banyue Mine Lian Cup is made by Master Tianjizi." Turning around, he looked at Lin Liang's various objects on the shelf behind him, "Huanghuali Pixiu, Dongshanding Lychee Jade, Taibai Zun Celadon..."

Sighing and shaking his head, Qi Xiao said: "Every piece is a treasure of the world, I admire it."

The smile grew stronger. As a Tibetan, Situ Lin loved to hear such praise. He put down the teacup in his hand and smiled happily: "Mr. Chu is modest, but I heard that you have a treasure in your hand. The price is about Even if you sell everything in this house, you won’t be able to afford it.”

Qi Xiao twitched his eyebrows and quickly calmed down, "I think the collection here is just a rare one for Boss Situ. If I really have to say, the blood jade is not worth talking about."

Regarding Qi Xiao's statement, Situ Lin was noncommittal, and Situ Lin smiled indifferently: "The blood jade has always been a treasure that has only been heard of but not seen. Rotten."

"I, Chu, was only lucky enough to get this treasure. If Boss Situ doesn't dislike it, I hope Boss Situ will give it a taste."

Rubbing his chin and brushing his beard, Situ Lin's request, which had always been embarrassing, was easily dismissed by the young man in front of him. Instead, it turned into Qi Xiao who wanted something from him, and he took a deep breath and didn't answer immediately. The young man who appeared suddenly, the other party looked at each other with a smile, his eyes were open and open.

Slightly hesitant, Situ Lin whispered in the ear of the young servant, and the servant walked out of the room with small steps. Situ Lin took the lid of the teacup and filtered the tea flakes, saying: "I dare not be a taster." , but a few days later, the old man invited some friends to a gathering in the Lanzhi Pavilion, I wonder if Mr. Chu is free to come? Maybe everyone can appreciate it together."

Qi Xiao showed joy, straightened her waist and clasped her fists: "Thanks to Boss Situ's kindness, I will definitely come here."

After chatting for a while, the young man who ran away just now came in with the invitation, put his hands in Qi Xiao's hands, opened the invitation and glanced at it briefly, closed the invitation and thanked Situ Lin again.

I drank a few more sips of tea, chatted about some Jiangzhou folk customs, and got up to say goodbye before dinner.

On the day shown on the invitation, Yang Huai prepared the carriage early and waited outside the house. Qi Ping stood at the door to welcome Qi Xiao on the horse. Knowing that she was busy with business these days, he repeatedly told her to be careful. Xiao Bing's cold palm squeezed Qi Ping's palm to reassure her.

The so-called small gathering tonight will be a crucial step. Of course, Qi Xiao dare not slack off, so she brings the blood jade and drives to Dalanzhige.

The Lanzhi Pavilion is also the property of Situ's family. It is usually a restaurant. Now it has been cleared, and idlers are not allowed to enter. Introduced into the cabinet.

Many of the visitors are obviously already regular customers, and the servants can call each other's honorifics without opening the invitation card. Qi Xiao's face is unfamiliar, and the servant standing at the door reaches out to stop Qi Xiao. It is not until he sees the name on the invitation card that he is full of smiles , led Qi Xiao and Yang Huai into the pavilion.

The seats in the hall were re-arranged, and small mahogany tables were arranged in a semicircle, leaving a space at the front of the hall that could accommodate dozens of people. The top-quality lamb velvet table mats were spread behind, and Qi Xiao chose a secluded corner to sit down. After preparing the cakes and fruits, Chen Xiangdai and Tu Hong who were beside him immediately recognized Qi Xiao and came over to say hello warmly.

Seeing the wooden box in Yang Huai's hand standing behind Qi Xiao, they all nodded and smiled knowingly.

When the guests were almost seated, Situ Lin walked out from the curtain at the back, stood in the open space in front of him and said, "Thank you for coming today, I have achieved something in Jiangzhou today, and it is thanks to your help, please don't be restrained. Talk freely, of course, if you have any good treasures, don't be stingy, show them to everyone."

As soon as he finished speaking, a squire stood up and said, "Boss Situ, I, Dong, found a treasure, and I'm just waiting for this opportunity to show it to everyone."

He raised his head and double-clicked his palm, and the two servants behind him struggled to move an object up. It was covered with red silk and satin cloth, and it could only be seen that the object was slightly taller than a person.

Carefully putting the thing on the empty table, the squire walked to the side with a mysterious face and said: "I took a lot of effort to get this thing, and it cost a total of 3000 taels of silver. It can be said, don't say it. In Jiangzhou, even in Ganpo Jiuzhou, you can’t find such treasures.”

The people in the audience urged him not to be secretive, and the squire covered his palm, and after his voice gradually died down, he finally lifted the veil of mystery.

The iron quinoa root carving carved into a fairy flying into the sky is lifelike. The mechanism and texture of the tree roots are completely natural to the fairy's posture. The most amazing thing is the excavated stone along with the root. The rhizomes are like the skirts of fairies, and the stones are white in color, like auspicious clouds, lining up the fluttering cloaks of fairies.

Exquisite workmanship and ingenious conception, it is indeed a masterpiece of root carving.

A few people from the audience went to the front desk to watch carefully. The squire also straightened his waist and was quite proud. Finally, someone proposed to collect this object and asked the squire to set a price. After some haggling, Situ Lin asked them to talk privately. , so as to leave the rest of the time for other friends.

After that, several people came up one after another with different collections. Qi Xiao shook the wine glass, and the bamboo leaves in the glass were completely green and yellow, and there were rounds of water shining against the rim of the glass. She could see the tricks in it. People, there are many bosses in the antique industry. Bringing collections here is for people to appreciate and see a price, and for finding a buyer. More valuable than the original.

After the last person came down from the top, everyone on the field was a little bit drunk. Although Zhuyeqing's blood pressure was not high, drinking several cups in a row would still make people head over heels.

Just when everyone thought it was time to end, Situ Lin walked up to the front again and said, "Today, I am honored to invite Mr. Chu." Spreading his five fingers, he pointed at Qi Xiao's position, "Mr. Chu brought a treasure today and I want everyone to appreciate it." , Mr. Chu, please."

Everyone's eyes pointed at Qi Xiao in unison, Yang Huai took the wooden box from behind, walked to the front calmly, opened the wooden box, and said two simple and clear words: "Blood jade. "

As soon as the voice fell, the audience was in an uproar.

The crowd, who were still a little tired before, boiled up and came to the front to have a glimpse of the peerless blood jade. Situ Lin, who was closest to Qi Xiao, the moment Qi Xiao opened the wooden box, his eyes showed shock that could not be concealed, and slowly , Amidst the praise and exclamation of everyone, it transformed into a greedy desire.
