I Make Money By Traveling Through Planes
Chapter 60: cup
Since I don't know why, it's better to go and have a look. Jiang Lin asked Gu Jingqing: "Where did you hear about it? Do you know who has it? Or you can take me to listen to it. I'll ask where it says."
"I know who has it, the person said, it is the shopkeeper Li who crossed Zhuque Street to the southeast Xuanhefang, the one who sold Taihu stones, it is said that his relatives brought him back from outside the region Yes, I also specifically inquired about it, and more than one person saw it, and they all said that it was clear glass, so I guess it can't be faked."
Gu Jingqing made the inquiries clear and clear. Jiang Lin felt that if he was in modern times, he would definitely be a qualified secretary. Jiang Lin only brought Gu Jingqing to have a look. It's a smash, even if she actually needs to be alone to smash it.
Walking through the alleys, Jiang Lin soon arrived at the place Gu Jingqing said. There is a small shop selling Taihu stones. Can't be any more ordinary street shop.
There is glass in such a small shop? This made Jiang Lin very suspicious. After all, glass has become so expensive as a luxury now. As the world's largest international metropolis, Chang'an City has no shortage of rich people. If it can produce glass, it can be replaced by a bigger one. The storefront is no problem.
As soon as Jiang Lin entered, he saw all kinds of Taihu stones in the room. There was a round stone table in the room, and a few people were sitting around the stone table. When the young man said something, Gu Jingqing whispered to Jiang Lin, "This is Shopkeeper Li."
Jiang Lin nodded and asked the man, "I heard there are glasses here?"
Manager Li looked at Jiang Lin and said with a habitual look: "That's not it! This is brought back to me by my relatives from outside the region. It's all to buy, do you want it too? Well, what is the price on the black market, what is the price I want."
"I heard you say so much, so don't take it out for us to see. I don't know if it's true or not. You don't have to say so much." If you are in a hurry, you should urge the person to quickly take out the things and take a look. One more person, one more competition, and one more competition will be more expensive. Everyone is listening to the news, and they are thinking about finding leaks. If it is expensive Yes, but it doesn't make sense.
"Hey? Don't you believe it? Just wait, I'll show it to you!" It's not like Mr. Li has no immunity to the trick, he just wants to show off. , Now that there are so many people, it's time to ask for a good price.
Manager Li took things very fast. It was a brocade box with three layers inside and three layers outside. Everyone’s eyes lit up when they saw it. This box sold well. should be a good thing,
Seeing that everyone was interested, Mr. Li felt that this box was a match. He opened the box proudly, and everyone gathered around to look at it. Jiang Lin was not in a hurry, anyway, waiting for them It's the same after watching it.
"This doesn't seem to be glass... You see, this one is still a little green. Everyone knows that this glass is colorless and transparent. You are wrong!" said a word.
"I think so too! I have seen glass cups from Jiang's goods store before, and they sold three or four in my hands! How clean and immaculate, you see there is a little cotton wool in this one Feeling, this is still a little cracked." Someone immediately echoed.
One of them picked up one and felt the weight in his hand, then put it back: "More than that, I have traded a dozen of them, and the weight is not right."
"It's gone! It's fake!" Some people who had seen glass also saw that it was not glass, and left one after another. Listen, I also know that this thing is not glass, and I am all disappointed.
"Hey, don't go, why isn't this? Isn't glass so clear?" Shopkeeper Li was in a hurry, why isn't this glass? Before he took it to the teahouse, everyone said it was glass, so didn't he put an extra box of money?
How could he know that those people in the teahouse have never seen real glass, glass has been brought by the royal family, and it has been at the forefront of fashion. The only source of Jianglin is limited, and the glass on the market is sky-high. These people are just hearsay and know the characteristics of some glass.
Jiang Lin and the others dispersed, sat on the stone bench beside the stone table, and took a look, only one glance knew that it was definitely not glass.
Looking for flaws, it can only be that there are some bubbles in very few.
Wait a minute! Yingguang? ? ?
Jiang Lin, the owner of a modern jewelry store, keenly smelled an unusual smell. Although there are many crystal clear stones, there are not many luminous stones. Before Jiang Lin saw it, they said The cup with a little green in it, this time the fluorescent light is still a little green, it is even less.
The emeralds that Liu Xingye had taught her before suddenly flashed in her mind, and she suddenly remembered that Liu Xingye once said that flashing occurs when the germplasm is delicate, that is, the crystal grain structure is small, On emerald with good transparency.
Jiang Lin suddenly felt a huge sense of absurdity, this is not a glass jade, right? Not to mention, it looks really similar in terms of features.
Treasurer Li didn't call anyone back, and when he came back to see Jiang Lin still sitting there looking at the cup, there was finally a glimmer of hope in my heart. He has to earn it back!
His relatives went to the border trade with others and found a kind of clean stone in the local area, which was said to be a bit like glass. When he saw the glass in Chang'an City so high, he thought about getting some Come back, imitate a few fake ones, and see if they sell?
He has never seen glass, who knows what glass is made of, maybe it is this kind of stone, he is holding a bit of luck, anyway, he himself is also engaged in the industry related to stone , I know a few carver masters, and the asking price is not expensive, so let's try a set.
"Where did the raw materials of this cup come from? What is it called?" Jiang Lin asked. Although there were jadeites in this era, Jianglin had inquired before that the jadeites at this meeting did not come from Myanmar. , but from Fuso, that is, Japan. As early as the Neolithic period in Japan, that is, the Jomon period, the carving and trading of jadeite has been very common.
However, in modern Japan, jadeite is no longer known. After all, the Jomon period was more than 7,000 years ago, and any mines were almost cleaned more than 7,000 years ago. Most of the remaining ones are rough in texture and full of impurities. Even some jade mines rely on archaeological discoveries to find traces of existence.
"It is said to be from Pyu, which is more than 2,000 miles south of the old county of Yongchang. As for the name...glass!" Manager Li looked at Jiang Lin and said cautiously, now he is just such a customer .
Jiang Lin took a map from the space and spread it on the table, looking for more than 2,000 miles south of the old county of Yongchang, and then a little on the map, yes, this is the location of Myanmar, listen to the shopkeeper He said it was glass, Jiang Lin smiled without saying a word, there was almost a word missing, it should be called glass species.
In modern times, there is no shortage of people who use glass as jade, but now Jiang Lin has seen people who use jade as glass. Sure enough, the market determines the value at any time, which is really worth sighing.
"This is not called glass, you are fake glass." Jiang Lin said this a bit awkwardly, this is probably real jade, fake glass, and jade as glass is not enough for you What a waste!
However, Jiang Lin also quickly realized that jadeite only became popular in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. In this time and space, jadeite from Myanmar also entered people's field of vision as a kind of jewelry, while the quality of jadeite in Japan is relatively poor. Well, even jade like jade is still a niche thing.
Before there is no certain strength to eat the ownership of all the jadeite, Jiang Lin does not intend to touch this hidden delicious cake for the time being. The value in it will be immeasurable. Just rushing to buy will create too much uncertainty.
So Jiang Linyu said earnestly: "But I want it too, just don't use it as glass in the future, the first is that you have seen it too, the two are easy to recognize, the second …”
Jiang Lin's face suddenly became serious: "Secondly, this kind of thing used to make wine vessels is very likely to cause harm to the human body. If something goes wrong... I'm afraid you can't afford it!"
Manager Li looked at Jiang Lin in astonishment: "Who are you?"
"I'm from the third-rank general Yunhui." Jiang Lin put his waist card directly on the table.
Treasurer Li changed his face when he heard the words: "Sir...sir!"
"Do you still have raw materials? Quickly take them out and I will take them to collect and destroy them. Don't make such things in the future." Jiang Lin said.
, you see it's all here."
Jiang Lin nodded and said, "Since you like glass so much, I'll give it to you." Jiang Lin took out a glass cup from the space and placed two large gold bars on the stone table: "This is The yamen gave it to you, keep it for good, and do business well in the future, don't think about pretending to be crooked."
Using glass jade to make wine utensils will really cause great harm to people's hearts... Jiang Lin sighed in his heart while holding the box containing the jade cup and jade rough stone. This has to be taken back for Uncle Liu to see if it is true.
Manager Li waited for Jiang Lin to go far before he dared to pick up the gold bar and cup. He could not help but smile as he weighed the gold bar, so two gold bars were enough to exchange for some good land! Buying this cup again is enough for him to buy a house and farm in his hometown to retire for the elderly. How can I know that this is not a blessing!
