if you are still there

Chapter 21 3 Colors

Xiao Liangwen went to Tengchong this time and came back before the Chinese New Year.

When he came back, Boss Xiao Hu took people to purchase some jade materials. Xu Gong and his brothers accompanied him to help the staff. When Xu Gong went out, Xiao Liangwen naturally followed.

Boss Xiao Hu usually feeds materials directly from the quarry, but this time he came here just to pick and choose randomly to see if he could catch any leaks.

This time, Xu Gong's senior brothers got the help of Boss Hu, and they were very polite to him. Xu Gong helped him a lot along the way, and he really picked up a few pieces of good-quality jade.

Xiao Liangwen followed behind, and his eyes would occasionally fall on those jade stones that had been polished or half-hidden in stones, red emerald and green, shining brightly under the light source, and the hearts of those who watched were moved.He didn't know much about it himself. When Xu Gong told Boss Hu, he also took a piece in his hand and looked at it. The color was bright, but there was no appearance.

The peddler saw that he was not dressed like a big boss, so he picked up a ready-made jade bracelet and handed it over, saying: "Little brother, look at this, although there are ice flowers in this, it is still a good thing. Jade nourishes people." , people raise jade, wear it for a few years and it will disappear! Raise it for a few years, tsk tsk, a piece of good glass..."

"Let me see if you raise one?" Xu Gong stood beside him and sneered, pushing back the bracelet he handed over, not letting Xiao Liangwen touch it. "You can grow the glutinous rice seeds with flocs into Zhengyang full green, and I will take your surname."

The vendor choked, and put down the jade bracelet in his hand embarrassingly.

Xu Gong took them to several places, and finally picked them up at a small stall. Xiao Liangwen took a piece half-wrapped in stones and was also looking at it. The fist-sized gray-white one could only be seen through the window. A little green.

Xu Gong raised his head and glanced, and said, "The green one is wiped out, can't it be made?" He took it over and pinched it twice. He swallowed the words when he reached his mouth, recognized that he was an expert, and hurriedly laughed: "How can it be, they are all good, the color of my house is better than other houses, look at the color, this is all A-grade..."

Xu Gong checked it for Xiao Liangwen, and then handed it to him, saying: "It's okay, but be careful when buying green wool. Generally, it's not very good, but it depends on luck."

Xiao Liangwen was very interested and asked the price.

The stall owner this time is much more generous than the previous vendor, and he is not exaggerating, but the price is also there, [-]% higher than other vendors. "Wool is several hundred, this one is polished, it will cost fifteen thousand..."

Xu Gong snorted, pointed at the top bluntly, and said, "Clean the window with greenery, and the moss flowers are almost circled around the stone. You can open the exit at this price."

The stall owner thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Then I'll give you the original price, and I'll charge you five hundred, just..."

Xu Gong lost three fingers and said, "It's only three hundred, and I won't give any more."

The boss had a painful face, still hesitating there, and didn't answer for a long time.

Xu Gong rummaged through his small stall, and managed to pick out two pieces that were convenient, but his fellow juniors followed suit and bought some more, all of which were waxy seeds that had been wiped green and made the size of a pendant.Xu Gong looked at these stones with little interest, and couldn't help but sigh, "This year's jadeite is not as good as previous years."

The stall owner waved his hand and said, "Where is it, the big goods of the Hu family and the Jin family haven't been cut yet, and they have been placed in the south square for several days yesterday."

As soon as he said this, Boss Hu, who was squatting over there to help Xu Gong's junior brother pick jade, almost choked on his own saliva.

Xu Gong looked at him with weird eyes and said, "Oh? The Hu family hasn't dissected the jade yet? It's really strange..."

The Hu family walks around these jade fields all the year round, and has some interests in the surrounding vendors. In addition, they are also kind, and the stall owners who sell jade are also very hardworking in recommending them, "No! The highlight of the year is waiting for the Hu family to open jade. I bought all these from there, and cut them out by myself. It’s really exciting. You might become a millionaire with a single knife. You can try your luck. Come here, this opportunity is not possible. miss!"

Boss Xiao Hu's face was covered with red, and he became a little embarrassed. He glanced at Xu Gong's junior, and he thought for several days before finding such a reason to invite him out.

Xu Gong glanced at Boss Hu, smiled on his face, and didn't answer.

There were still one or two scattered pieces of white jade on the stall, which were made from mountain materials and were not very valuable. Xu Gong was an expert in playing with nephrite, so he was happier seeing this than jadeite.He fiddled with it a few times, then looked back at Xiao Liangwen, who was following closely behind him. This little brother had also helped him a lot in the past two days. After getting acquainted with him, he thought he was a good person, so he said to him: "Emerald is beautiful, white jade is gentle." , It’s just that the seed material is getting less and less these days. When you find a good color and a good patina, you keep one in your hand, and I will ask my little brother to carve one for you when I get a chance.”

Xiao Liangwen followed his gaze and said with a smile, "Why is your junior brother better than you?"

Xu Gong was not humble either, he praised his younger brother as much as he praised himself, his eyebrows were beaming, "You don't know, those two little younger brothers in my family are amazing, they were brought out by my master, let them imitate something for you, put it on the table Well, drink, let the fake ones confuse the real ones, and when the time comes, I will show you..."

The other junior fellow who was walking with him coughed, but he was dry, as if he was interrupting him to stop him from continuing.

Xiao Liangwen turned his head to look, it was a boy with delicate eyebrows and eyes, with a weak expression, his face was flushed from coughing.As soon as the younger brother interrupted, Xu Gong stopped talking, and even the boss Xiao Hu who was next to him couldn't help but look over, leaned closer and whispered: "Cheng Ye, are you okay? Do you want to sit down next to me and have a drink?" Water, you just have a cold..."

Xu Gong changed his position, moved the two of them away inadvertently, pushed Cheng Ye to sit next to him, and said, "You have a stubborn temper, and you still had a high fever in the middle of the night last night, so you have to be brave today. Sit down here and rest, your body has been taking medicine and hasn't recovered..."

Boss Xiao Hu hesitated for a moment, but still followed, his eyes fell on Cheng Ye with a bit of worry.

There were already enough people sitting on the bench over there, Xiao Liangwen didn't follow, and turned his eyes back to the jade stones.Red emerald and green jade, he took another piece of green jade and looked at it in his hand, comparing it with the rough stone that had not been completely untied before rubbing a little green.

The stall owner said from the side: "This stone turns green as soon as it is rubbed, maybe it is full of green inside! If you want it, I will give it to you at the original price of the wool. The new one is solved, and the other is more expensive. The pendant is full of green, although there are some floating flowers, it will cost [-]."

Xiao Liangwen took out [-] from his pocket and put it in front of his booth. The stall owner wanted to raise the price, but when he looked up and saw the black face, he didn't dare to say anything for a while and could only put the money in his pocket.This black skin is with the gang of jade carving masters just now. Those people know the market here, and the stall owner also knows that if the stone is untied, it will be "white flowers", then it is worthless. Three hundred is considered a return.

Xiao Liangwen didn't have enough money, so he could only buy the cheap one. Seeing that the one in his hand was also glowing green, he felt relieved.He likes green ones. Ding Xu's skin is fair. If he wears this on his hand, it will make his complexion fairer.

The stall owner was also an enthusiastic person, so he asked him again: "Should I take you to find a master who can untie the jade, and untie it to see inside?" He bought this stone and put it away for a year without touching it. It is not good to know that it will turn green just after rubbing it. It is often filled with white stones, but it is still itchy after holding it in my hand for so long. Now that someone bought it, I naturally want to watch it. .

Xiao Liangwen thought about it for a while, and then agreed. He heard from Xu Gong yesterday that there are not many jadeites in the stone, so it's good to untie it, and it's easy to hold.

Jieyu's place is less crowded at the moment, and there are a few sporadic people who are watching the excitement. They are bought by tourists around to try their luck. The stall owner took Xiao Liangwen over and handed the fist-sized stone to him. Said: "Old Xu, come and help me, untie it and see if there is any treasure inside!"

Master Xie Yu raised his head and glanced, disdainful, "Who are you kidding, it looks like a rock."

The stall owner blushed from choking, and urged him, "You're the one who talks a lot, so let's untie it and see!"

Master Xie Yu muttered, "It's so big, should it be sliced, or cut horizontally?"

The cutting surface is progressively cut in layers, and the cutting is meticulous, and it is not easy to damage the jade inside. The horizontal cutting is a relatively rough method. One knife in the middle directly cuts it in half.

Xiao Liangwen was in a hurry, and said: "Cut it horizontally, cut the green part and give it to me." He didn't have much hope for this stone, and he could keep some of it, and he could take it back and give it to Ding Xu as a paperweight.

Master Xie Yu glanced at him, and muttered: "Don't you know something, why bother to buy this stone lump... Look at it, open—"

The master manipulated the sharp gears into the stone bit by bit, cut that layer, wiped out the green behind the window, it was indeed a white stone, the people watching the excitement couldn't help but sigh a few times, and they all cried out. scattered.

Xiao Liangwen watched the thin piece of stone fall to the ground, with sporadic green flashes on it, but his heart didn't feel too much ups and downs.He is a bit of a gambler by nature, and he can afford to lose. In addition, he has seen a lot of good news with Zhao Gong in the past few days, and he knows that 300 yuan can't buy anything.Coming here is to gamble on luck and buy something for Ding Xu as a gift.

This small piece of slate can be placed on Ding Xu's desk, and it can be used as a corner of Ding Xu's book at night.

Well, I just can't say how much I paid for it, or I might be punished...

The stall owner looked inside with his hands in his hands and saw that there were stones inside. He sighed and seemed more devoted than Xiao Liangwen.

Master Xie Yu opened too much jade every day, and now he continued to draw a line along the green moss without raising his head, cut the knife, and a gear came down, the whole stone was cut off at the middle, and became two babies' fist-sized pieces stone.

Hearing the sound of the machinery slowly stop, the stall owner took a peek and saw that it was still a stone. He smacked his lips and tried to comfort his customers, "It's a pity, it seems that good jade can be produced..."

Suddenly, the master who saw the jade paused for a moment, washed the two stones clean with water, and said with a trembling voice: "It's out! It's out...three colors!!"

Jadeite has five colors, and generally three-color jadeite is considered a three-color jadeite. The price is several times higher than that of the same quality, and it is a rare treasure.

Both the stall owner and master Xie Yu got excited, especially the old master, who wiped out the remaining jade little by little, for fear of hurting even the slightest bit.

Xiao Liangwen didn't understand these things. Seeing a touch of red mixed with purple, he frowned and said, "Why isn't it green?"

The stall owner explained with a smile: "Red jade, green, emerald, and purple are the most expensive. Have you heard this? It's purple jade, and the purple energy is coming from the east, which is a good sign!"

There was too much commotion here, and Boss Hu and the others were also alarmed. They came over to take a look, and said with a smile: "Oh, today's lottery was snatched by you, not bad, not bad, just wait and see how much money you can get." jade."

The people around also gathered around one after another, discussing in a hurry, watching Master Xie Yu remove the stones one after another, they were frightened and became more and more excited.

In the last two stones the size of a baby's fist, only a knuckle was rubbed out of the half of the emerald that just came out, and the other half was useless.What came out was a three-color emerald a few centimeters long, with red and purple as the main colors, and a touch of refreshing green at the end of the hand, which turned out to be the ring surface of a high-quality saddle finger.

Xu Gong and Cheng Ye also came to join in the fun. Cheng Ye looked at it for a while, and praised: "This is good, it's the best for making fingers."

Xu Gong was more realistic than he thought, congratulated Xiao Liangwen, smiled and said: "The price of one color is increased by a hundred times, you have produced three colors, although the water head is not the best, but spring purple is rare, 5 Wando is still there.”

At the moment, the value of jadeite has not risen sharply. At auctions in Hong Kong and other places, a set of jewelry full of green can be won for less than [-] yuan. Such three colors are worth half a set of jadeite and diamond-studded jewelry. baby.

Xiao Liangwen's heartbeat quickened little by little. He looked at the small piece of jade handed over by Master Xie Yu, and carefully held it in his hands for a while, "I really didn't expect..."

The people behind him couldn't help being greedy when they saw it, some bought it out of their own pocket, and some couldn't help teasing him when they saw him like this: "Why don't you sell what you have and play with it?"

Xu Gong frowned and looked at Xiao Liangwen.

Xiao Liangwen just looked at the small piece of three-colored jade in his hand for a while, shook his head, and said, "No." He paused, then pointed to the piece of stone with green flowers on the ground and said, " Please wrap this up for me too, thank you."

Xu Gong's brows loosened, and he couldn't help laughing. He didn't expect this to be a small money fan. He only knew how to save money after he got married. Xiao Xiao is much stronger than him at this age, and has self-control!

Xiao Liangwen, who has self-control, is discussing with Boss Hu in a low voice. He looks at the three-color jade in his hand, and is very concerned that it is not a whole piece of green and bright. Boss Xiao Hu offered a fair price, and he did not hesitate to take This one is sold.

He was still thinking about getting a green one for Ding Xu, and decided that he would not turn back when he decided on that color.

When he went back to rest at night, Xiao Liangwen lay there feeling a little unreal. He had handled a lot of money before, but it was never as exciting as today. He tossed and turned for a long time, and did not fall asleep until midnight.

Probably because he was too impressed by the events of the day, he had a dream.

In the dream, Ding Xu was lying on a small sofa in front of the window reading a book, his white shirt was clean, and his pair of thin gold-rimmed glasses were still on the bridge of his nose.He and Ding Xu were so close that even the sound of Ding Xu's slender fingers turning the pages of the book could be clearly heard, the louder than turning the pages was his heartbeat.

bang - bang bang -

He felt that his mouth was parched, but he didn't know how to suppress the fire that was rushing up his throat.

Ding Xu was still lying there without looking up, as if he couldn't see him.

Even if he is doing bad things now, Ding Xu can't see...

This kind of mood made him a little excited, he couldn't help but stretch out his hand and push Ding Xu down on the sofa, covering his whole body, pressing him firmly under his body.

"Zai Zai..."

Ding Xu was really angry, and he reached out to hit him, but he grabbed his wrist and pressed it on top of his head. He suddenly became flustered, and opened his mouth to call him.Xiao Liangwen looked at him fixedly, lowered his head and covered his mouth with his mouth, the warm touch made his body change uncontrollably.

After kissing for a while, Ding Xu's struggling movements became smaller, and he even took the initiative to hug him.

Xiao Liangwen didn't know what to do next, he just indulged himself with instinct and an unspeakable desire.

He was bullying Ding Xu, but he couldn't stop.

Ding Xu's voice whimpered for a few words, and then he clenched his lips and refused to respond, which is indeed his usual practice.Thinking about it this way, I couldn't help bullying even harder...

Ding Xu glared at him angrily, but Xiao Liangwen couldn't restrain himself, and after a while of trembling, he stained those glasses and that pretty face.

not enough, not enough...

He was greedy and eager, tossing and turning to do what he wanted to do deep in his heart. When Ding Xu was struggling under him, he showed a touch of green between his wrists and ankles, which really made his skin white as snow...

Xiao Liangwen woke up from the strong stimulation.

He sat up, with a dazed look on his face, and after a few minutes, he stretched out his hand to touch the quilt, cursed, and rubbed his hair vigorously with both hands.After a while, I suddenly remembered something again, and went down to wash my hair and body with a stinky face.

After simply rinsing, he changed into his underwear and lay down on the thin wooden bed, but he didn't intend to fall asleep again for a long time.The winter in the south is damp and cold, but his body is burning hot, even the mood in his sleep just now is the same.It seems that something is different from before.

He took out his cell phone, read and re-read the text messages that Ding Xu replied.

The author has something to say:

I have a wish article:

Comrade Xiao Xiao: I want a lot of money!

Xu Gong: Let me look at the jade for you, it’s not difficult.

Comrade Xiao Xiao: I want to marry Zaizai!

Xu Gong: ...Have you asked Zaizai for his opinion?

Comrade Xiao Xiao: I also want to have a son Zaizai after the age of 35, so that he can never leave me again.

Xu Gong: ...Don't you think about 15 at the age of 35?
