Rebirth of Emerald Life

Wen Wen has been hesitating, he knows that Old Wu may be able to see something from the fake material, but he also has a feeling that this matter is not that simple, so it may be dangerous to involve the master...

Wen Wen didn't hesitate for a long time, because Lao Wu came to Hong Kong.

After the two apprentices (Xiao Feiyu's unscrupulous apprentice is not counted), Lao Wu gradually felt a little bit lonely while guarding Jufuzhai alone. At first, Lao Wu told himself that he was just not used to it. When I grow up, I always want to go out and venture. Although I comfort myself so much, Lao Wu's smile is still getting less and less, until one day Wu Xiaoyu, who can't stand it anymore, said: "Uncle, you are over 50 years old, you Those good friends are not children and grandchildren around their knees..." Only then did Old Wu wake up - that's right!Now that I am an old man, it is right for my disciples to be filial by my side!So Lao Wu, who figured it out, tidied up happily and ran to join his apprentice.

Old Wu took the woolen material left by Ye Kai and inspected it carefully, rubbed his fingers repeatedly at each joint, and finally put the woolen material back into its original shape, and drew several three-dimensional models on the paper.

Finally, Lao Wu rubbed his eyes, took a sip of tea from the purple sand teacup on the side, and then said slowly: "Although there are no schools of betting stones on the surface, different stone betting masters have different ways of looking at wool. The secret method makes the stone gamblers also distinguish the difference. The same is true for counterfeiting, whether it is fake skin or fake heart, whether it is hollowed out or stuffed, each faction has its own unique skills."

"When I was traveling in my early years, I also stumbled on fake materials several times. Later, when I encountered fake materials, I would pay more attention and see some tricks."

"Ahe should have figured out that the fake part of this piece of wool is the core. The counterfeiter dug out the jadeite in the wool, filled it with stones, and then glued it to repair it. The method of counterfeiting the core is very common, but these pieces of wool The method of counterfeiting should come from the Mao family in Tengchong, Yunnan."

The Mao family in Tengchong, Yunnan Province made their fortune in the late Qing Dynasty. The ancestor Mao Yingde was a very famous jade merchant in Burma at that time. He was once named Yuanwailang by Emperor Xianfeng. Everyone will be sent to him for selection first.It is said that thousands of pairs of jade bracelets were used to tie the coffin after his death, and the wealth of the Mao family was a sensation at the time.

Wen Wen had read the biography of this celebrity in a book, and knew a thing or two about these things, but he had never heard that the Mao family was also good at cheating.

Ji Bai also thought about it, and asked casually: "How could the Mao family have anything to do with a fraudster? Isn't this self-destructive reputation?"

"The one who really knows how to gamble with stones is not good at cheating? Even if you don't know how to do it, you have to admit it." Old Wu glared at Ji Bai, showing a little complacent expression, "But I know that the Mao family is also very good at cheating." There are indeed very few people, and the cost of this method of fraud is extremely high."

"Look,"

Old Wu drew a circle on the wool material with chalk, pointed to that piece and said, "This piece is a fake heart, can you see the difference from other places?"

Several people looked at it in turn, and shook their heads. Xiao Yuqian asked, "I really can't see anything from the appearance. Can we detect the difference by testing?"

"Hey, no matter what method you use, it's impossible to detect the difference," Old Wu looked at everyone's puzzled eyes, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then revealed the answer.

"Because the stone and wool that make this core are unraveled in one place, there is no difference at all."

"No wonder the master said that the cost is high. From this point of view, this method of deception is not only costly, but the conditions are also very difficult. It is not a loss to find stones from the same place as the wool material for deception!"

After hearing this, Lao Wu threw a bomb, "The original purpose of this method is not to cheat! Although the Mao family is a stone betting heirloom, they don't have so many top-quality wool materials for their children to learn from. Later, a member of the Mao family Sculpture geniuses use this method to make wool specimens from some wool that has been unraveled at home for the children of the clan to learn and observe. When the master traveled to Yunnan in his early years, he saw such a "true" in the home of a stone gambler from the Mao family. Fake material', the stone gambler saw that the master was interested and told the master how to make it, but he didn't expect such a skill to be used as a fake."

"Wouldn't that mean that anyone who knows how to make it can fake it in this way?"

"Of course not. Adhesion is the most critical part of this production method. Without the Mao family's secret adhesive, if you use this method to fake a tiger, you can't be a dog. The average stone gambler can see the flaws." here."
