Blossoms are blooming

"Just these two pieces, shopkeeper, how much do you think these two pieces will cost?" With that said, Qiu Huaisheng handed the jade in An Ziyan's hand to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper took the two pieces of jade and weighed them. "It's exactly three catties, let's give six taels together!" After saying that, the store handed the two pieces of jade that had been weighed to Qiu Huaisheng again.

(Note here: In ancient times, a catty was considered 500G-600G, here cats are considered 500G, and one tael is equivalent to 600 yuan according to the lowest Ming Dynasty, so six taels is 1800 yuan. If If Maomao miscalculated, just take a look, don’t worry about what’s there or what’s not!)

An Ziyan did not expect that these two small stones would cost so much six taels of silver, which is equivalent to more than two months of food expenses for ordinary people. Fortunately, he expected to buy things when he went out today, so he prepared some more silver.

An Ziyan was looking for money on his body, but he couldn't find it after searching all over his body, so An Ziyan became anxious. He remembered that he had put it away, so how could it suddenly disappear!

Qiu Huaisheng noticed An Ziyan's abnormality, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"The silver is gone, I remember bringing it out!" At this moment, An Ziyan thought of the kid who bumped into him just now. Could it be that those kids bumped into him on purpose because they wanted to steal his things instead of playing? ! "My money was stolen by that child!" An Ziyan didn't expect to encounter such a thing when he came out to play in the first place, which is considered unlucky enough.

"What? Objectively, there is no money? Then don't you want this jade?" Now I went to the store and laughed. I must put these two pieces of jade away, and then I can sell them for a good price!

"No need, I have it!" So, when he heard Qiu Huaisheng's words, the shopkeeper gave him another blow. "Ziyan, take this jade first!" As he said that, Qiu Huaisheng handed the two pieces of jade to An Ziyan, and then took out six taels of silver from his body and handed it to the shopkeeper.So the three of them paid the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other. Seeing Qiu Huaisheng like this, they still made money after all.

"Brother Huaisheng, I'll return the money to you when I get back!"

"Just treat it as a gift from me! There is no need to care too much between us!" Qiu Huaisheng said fondly, rubbing An Ziyan's hair.

"Then I'll buy some good things and give them to you in the future!" Since Qiu Huaisheng said he would give this to him, An Ziyan naturally accepted it. Although he didn't lack the six taels of silver, it was a gift. , The meaning of giving it as a gift is different from buying it yourself.

"Is there anything else you want to buy? If not, let's go to the jade shop!" The jade shop that Qiu Huaisheng mentioned is naturally a place for processing rough jade.

"Then let's go to the jade shop. I also want to see what the jade inside is like, but Brother Huaisheng, how do you know this?" An Ziyan believed in Qiu Huaisheng's eyes, he believed that Qiu Huaisheng bought it These two rough jade stones must be good jade.

"Because there are a lot of jade in Tianling Mountain, I learned it naturally in Tianling Mountain, and there are many kinds of jade in Tianling Mountain. As before, just weigh the weight, feel the temperature on the surface of the original stone, or smell it with your nose, and I will know what's inside. Probably what kind of jade it is! The small one in your hand is filled with warm jade, while the big one is Jinxiang jade!"

"Based on what you said, how do we know the difference between Nuanyu and Jinxiangyu?" Obviously, there is no difference at all on the surface, and the heavier one will definitely be heavier!

"Take the two pieces of jade separately, don't take the place you just took, and then feel whether the temperature of the smaller piece is higher than the temperature of the big one!"

An Ziyan tried it according to Qiu Huaisheng's method, and then looked at Qiu Huaisheng in surprise; "That's true, then what's the matter with the Jin Xiangyu you mentioned?"

"Smell it with your nose to see if you smell a little fragrance!" Jinxiangyu Jinxiangyu, as the name implies, means that jade will emit fragrance, and smell this fragrance, and the fragrance is strong, if people smell it when they are hungry, they will feel It has a feeling of fullness and can be used as medicine, but because this golden fragrance jade is hard to find, so even if it is really available, it will not be used as medicine easily, and as long as the hand touches the surface of this jade, the fragrance will last for a long time, usually it is Miss Qianjin Wear it on your body, so you don't even need to apply face powder, but there are also some young masters who wear Jin Xiangyu, but those young masters are just for showing off.

An Ziyan sniffed the piece of jade, and sure enough, he smelled a faint fragrance. If he didn't smell it carefully, he couldn't smell the fragrance, and he didn't know how strong the smell would be if he cut it open. Trying your luck, I didn't expect Qiu Huaisheng to know so much. It seems that he has found a treasure.

"I think it's better for us not to go to the jade shop yet, we should collect such good things carefully!" An Ziyan said.

"Then open the warm jade. Wearing the warm jade is good for your body. Use it to make two accessories, one for you and the other for your father. I know you and your father are cold, so bring a warm jade." The jade will be better!" So this is why Qiu Huaisheng bought the Nuanyu just now.

"Brother Huaisheng, you treat me so well, I find that I can't do without you more and more!" An Ziyan didn't expect Qiu Huaisheng to care about him so much, as if he had returned to Tianling Mountain.

"Aren't we together now, so this is what I should do for you. I still think about how many children I will let you bear for me when your father and father agree that we care about it in the future!" Qiu Huaisheng said in An Ziyan's Said softly in the ear.

"This..." An Ziyan had nothing to say for a while, but An Ziyan became ashamed because of what Qiu Huaisheng said, then he looked around and felt relieved when he found that no one noticed them.

"Hahahahahahahaha, let's see how scared you are!" Looking at An Ziyan's appearance, Qiu Huaisheng immediately became happy, and then put his hand on An Ziyan's shoulder, An Ziyan angrily took Qiu Huaisheng's hand away , but as soon as he took Qiu Huaisheng's hand away, he immediately reached out to him again. After repeated attempts to no avail, An Ziyan just let him go.

It didn't take long for the two of them to come to the jade shop. This jade shop was his grandfather's shop in Kyoto. It was later pawned off, and finally his father took it back, so Mo Lin and Zhao Qian took care of it, but They usually don't have time to go to the shop, so they hired the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper, An Ziyan, also knew him, so when An Ziyan came to the jade shop, he was greeted by the shop assistant Haosheng.

"I don't know if Your Highness is coming back today, but I hope His Highness will not be offended if I miss you!" The shopkeeper made tea for the two, "I don't know why Your Highness is here today?"

"I just bought two rough jade stones from the market, cut them up and make two accessories for me!" An Ziyan handed the warm jade rough stones to the shopkeeper.

"Your Highness, choose a pattern and see what kind of accessories you want to make!" After speaking, the shopkeeper took out a picture book and handed it to An Ziyan.

"Let me draw it!" How could such a good thing be the same as other people's, so An Ziyan had to draw a sketch by himself.

After listening to the shopkeeper, he took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone. An Ziyan picked up the brush and dipped it in the ink, but he was hesitant to write. He had to think about what to make.

An Ziyan didn't think for long, and started to draw on the rice paper. It took about two quarters of an hour for An Ziyan to complete the drawing. One was that the lower part looked like the surface of water, and then a lotus flower and a lotus leaf grew out. There is a flower bud, and there is a pair of mandarin ducks on the water, so this pair is a pair of mandarin ducks playing lotus, An Ziyan decided to give this to his father.The other one is simpler, it is a circle, its pattern is two symmetrical unicorns, there are a few auspicious clouds on it, and there are two holes on it, although this jade was given by Qiu Huaisheng, so he wanted to make his own A pair, he and Qiu Huaisheng wear one each.

After the ink on it dried up, An Ziyan handed over the manuscript to the shopkeeper, "Please finish it as soon as possible and take it to the palace!"

"The little one knows, because his buddy will take a rest for a few days during the Chinese New Year, and the fastest can only be delivered to the house on the Lantern Festival!"

"Then it's the Lantern Festival, thank you for your hard work!"

"It's not hard, it's not hard!"

"Then you do your work first, we'll go back home first!" After speaking, An Ziyan took Qiu Huaisheng's hand and walked out of the shop.

"Your Highness, go slowly!" The shopkeeper watched the two leave behind him.
