"Baby, do you think I'm handsome?" Yue Wen pointed to the photo of himself and Lu Shanshan online and looked at the brothers standing behind him.
"Brother Wen, please forgive me," Bao Baobao said with a smile, "Why do I feel that he is so reluctant?"
"That's right, that's right," Heiba patted Yue Wen on the shoulder, "You hold someone's arm with one hand and hold their hand with the other, just because you're afraid they will pull their hand away."
"Bago, do you think you are smart if you don't tell me if you don't tell me? Will you die if you don't tell me?"
…
Photos of Yue Wen shaking hands with Lu Shanshan appeared on some forums, and the news that Lu Yinjiang was going to Pingzhou to obtain the jade mining rights also spread like wildfire, not only in Pingzhou, but also in Furong Street.
It even spread in the jade circle.
The hotels in the development zone were also filled with jade dealers from all over the country who came to visit the sites to take samples. Some jade dealers also began to buy stones from the villagers. The villagers became more enthusiastic about picking up jade and digging for treasures. The crowds in the rivers stayed all day long.
They all once impacted Zhou Tuan’s collection.
The Propaganda Department of the District Working Committee is also taking action. The first jade seminar in Pingzhou has begun to slowly prepare, and the invited reporters are also on their way to Pingzhou.
Furong Street Furong Jade has become a hot topic not only in the development zone, but also in Qinwan. Many old Qinwan people who have never set foot in the development zone in their lives also drive here with their families on weekends just to pick up a few pieces of jade.
go back.
Ge Huixian took several colleagues to "organize a group" to dig for treasures. After the lunch treat, everyone got a few pieces of jade of different colors. Everyone was smiling and overjoyed. After praising Yue Wen as a flower, everyone was satisfied.
And return.
…
Hibiscus jade, which has been unknown for many years and has always been used as phosphate fertilizer leftovers, finally emerged. After experiencing the first wave of reports from major domestic media, hibiscus jade, which has been "cabbage price" for decades, has become a "crazy stone" in the jade industry.
The cabbage finally turned into golden pastry.
People are still coming and going in the river. Looking around, the river beach is full of small carts, all of them are people digging for jade with shovels. Cars of stones and silt are continuously sent out of the river.
Chen Jiangping visited the site every day. This scene reminded him of the construction of tidal dams, large terraces, and large reservoirs... At that time, there were also huge crowds of people and it was in full swing.
The situation seems to have changed in the past few days. The carts and tractors are still there, but some people have hired excavators on their own initiative, and the number of vehicles has obviously increased.
The big bad wolf is here, bringing a group of brothers and a forklift;
Liang Li came with a group of migrant workers and a forklift;
…
The "era of mechanized combat by large corps" has finally arrived after a period of intense heat. He is no longer worried about the dredging. What he is worried about now is order. He saw Gao Ming from the police station maintaining security at the scene, and two families were digging for jade.
They can all fight.
"Well, Lao Wan, contact the Land and Resources Bureau. Someone has started digging for jade on the mountain. Send a few people to patrol the mountain. Don't dig randomly on the mountain!" The jade digging on the river beach was originally for dredging. He saw through Yue Wen's trick at a glance.
, that is the legendary jade merchant, must also be his masterpiece.
The Land and Resources Bureau has already received instructions from the district working committee to strictly prohibit indiscriminate mining and excavation in the mountains. Big signs saying "Protect Mineral Resources" and "No Entry into Mining Areas, Violators Will Be Criminally Responsible" have been erected high on the mountains.
The police station also formed a team of 6 people, with 2 people in groups, providing 24-hour supervision. At the same time, 3 high-definition cameras were installed on the mountain to check the situation on the mountain at any time.
He answered another phone call, from the secretary of the Party Working Committee of Zhushan Street, "Old Chen, now all the people in Zhushan Street have gone to work in Furong Street and picked up treasures. The hookers we hired
The machines have all gone to you, and when the time comes to clear the bottom, you have to explain it carefully in front of Secretary Liao!"
Chen Jiangping smiled and retorted, "Who told you that there is no jade there? You don't care about the people's legs and mouths!"
The other party responded with a smile, "I heard that the price has increased again now. It costs 100 yuan per catty. How about we dig for jade? We can earn much more than we, the Party Working Committee Secretary!"

As a geographical country with a vast territory and abundant resources, jade is also of various colors.
The beautiful and moist stone bred from the seams of the stone makes people marvel at the magic of nature's creation. After the fusion of art and carving, the jade carving becomes a colorful and breathtaking work of art, and it has become an indelible
It is the darling of the antique art collection, and its price has doubled.
"Brother Wen, there are jade in the river and stones on the mountains. You can make money by selling the stones." Yue Wen wiped away the ice cream stains on the baby's mouth as he ate the ice cream.
"This is a new district, and we must pay attention to the environment. The district will not agree to mining. It is useless for Lu Yinjiang to go to the Land and Resources Bureau. If our development zone continues to develop resource-based industries, it will make people laugh," Yue Wen looked at the baby
, changing the topic, "Baby, have you ever been in the office, and what did you give to the guests when they were greeted and sent off?"
"Red armor, maybe." Bao Bao thought for a while, "Or maybe it's gold and stone."
"Haha, how many kilograms are given per gift, right?"
"Well, Director Zhu always prepares foam boxes," Bao Bao gestured with his hands, "A foam box weighs more than ten kilograms."
"If I were the office director, I wouldn't do this," Yue Wen said with a smile, "You have to study human psychology. If you send a bunch of red armor and red, the message behind it is that we have so much of this stuff here and it's worthless. If you want me
If I want to give it as a gift, I will make a more elegant box, put only six of them, tie them up one by one, and put a certificate in it, so that people will feel that it is very high-end, and you can do more with less money... giving gifts
, is also a science.”
"Similarly, if hibiscus jade is mined in large quantities, it will be worthless. It is rare and valuable, so hibiscus jade cannot be put on the market in large quantities. However, we can increase the added value of existing jade. After carving, it will no longer be jade."
"What is that?" Heiba drove the car and turned to look at Yue Wen, "Isn't it still a stone?"
"No," Yue Wen smiled, "that's culture."
"There used to be a carving factory on our street, but it's gone now. Brother Wen, you've only been here for half a year, how do you know the history of hibiscus jade?" Bao Baobao was puzzled.
"Remember, I won't tell ordinary people that you will all be secretaries and directors in the future, and you will all be in charge of the government." Yue Wen was proud, "If you want to quickly understand a place, just read the county annals. There is everything in it. You
I thought I was reading the county annals as a novel. What I was looking at was the industries in it. For example, precipitation has occurred every year since the founding of the People's Republic of China. You can roughly guess that there will be droughts every few years and floods every few years. Of course, our development zone has always been short of water.
of."
"Not to go too far, let's talk about jade carvings. During the years when I was driving, I traveled all over the country. The drivers were all rough guys, but they were well-informed and I benefited a lot. They told me that the jade carvings in the shopping malls may not be the same.
It’s valuable, but it becomes very valuable once it’s processed.”
"Tell me about it." The baby became interested.
"You think Hotan jade is good, right? Both Korean and Qinghai jade can be called Hotan jade. Haha, the price difference is huge, plus the carving, it looks even more different... Certificate? That's just a decoration.
It can only prove that it is just a piece of jade, it is a website, and you can make one yourself."
"My mother just bought a Hetian jade bracelet a while ago." Heiba became uneasy while driving, "Are you going to be fooled?"
"What do you think?" Yue Wen smiled.
"Your family is not short of money, so just consider it as a contribution to the people." Baobao patted Heiba on the shoulder.
"As for jasper, many of them are Manas jasper. Although it is produced in Xinjiang, it has nothing to do with Hotan jade. ... When you go to the mall to buy jade, most people don't pay attention to the carving. The jade in the mall is usually carved.
Traditional themes such as Guanyin and Buddha are the most suitable for machine carving. They are produced in batches from factories and are usually machine-polished leftovers, so the cost is not much."
"There are too many ways here, and you can be deceived accidentally." Bao Bao looked at Hei Ba, "Fortunately, my family has no money, unlike Ba Ge's family, we have a solid foundation, and it doesn't hurt to cheat someone out of a few thousand pieces of meat."
"The return of traditional culture is an inevitable trend. The domestic cultural and entertainment market has been very hot in recent years. One is related to the general trend, and the other word is inseparable from speculation. Huanglong jade and golden silk jade are all speculated.
Jadeite was first introduced to China by the Empress Dowager Cixi, and has been sold to astronomical prices of tens of billions of dollars. Now, the decline is too obvious...our hibiscus jade needs to be sold, but it must have added cultural value!"
"Brother Wen, let's go to Baoshizhai to find Shen Guozhang. Can his artificial carvings be of any use?" Hei Ba said loudly.
"Artificial carving requires careful carving, and good things must be done well. Well, we can't let the people suffer now. Now that the district has taken action, let's see if we can guide it and restart this old industry. Now the people's hands
There are stones inside, we have to cash in this wealth for them..."

Whether it is elegance or vulgarity, these two have always been twins with a question mark on each other.
The hanging grapes, the residual lotus swaying in the wind, the children riding bullocks in the mountains and returning home at night, the old people leaning against the door to play with their children in the small village... Bodhisattva, Vajra, summer cicada, cabbage... are so lifelike that people can't bear to touch them.
"This is a copy of the appraisal report of the hibiscus jade survey results in 1988." The old man had a vicissitudes of life on his face and his hands were shaking a little. Yue Wen solemnly took the appraisal report, which showed that the hibiscus jade included jasper, black jade, ruby and green spots.
Four varieties of jade...
"In the 1990s, there were three to four thousand jade carvers in Pingzhou, and most of them were in Furong Town. In 1996, the Pingzhou Carving Factory was also disbanded. Now there are only about 200 people working in this industry.
Well, my store is quite big." The old man sighed with emotion.
Yue Wen, Hu Kailing, Bao Bao, and Hei Ba all looked serious and listened quietly. Only the old man's slightly sentimental vicissitudes of life echoed in the room.
"Uncle, that's why I'm here today. Now the district is also interested in supporting the jade carving industry, and hibiscus jade has begun to become famous across the country. In addition to participating in the national jade and jewelry expo, I have an idea. Can I combine hibiscus jade with hibiscus jade?
Gold combines elegance and vulgarity. Look, we have gold mines and jade on the mountain. Can we combine them into one?"
"Gold inlaid with jade, jade covered with gold, that's totally fine." Shen Guozhang smiled.
Yue Wen looked at Hu Kailing and said, "Uncle, I am also the secretary of Jinjiling Village. There are resources and factories on the mountain. Can you teach them and guide them?"
Hu Kailing said sincerely, "Director Shen, I am a rough man and can't speak. Director Yue means what I mean. Don't worry, we will listen to whatever you say when we get to the village. Our village has now built roads, making it convenient to go down the mountain. You can also take care of your store on the street."
Shen Guozhang looked at Hu Kailing, obviously lacking in confidence, "I'm also afraid that this craft will be lost, but the work is dirty and tiring, and it requires sitting still. No young people are willing to learn it. Last year I opened a free "There were only a dozen people in the training class, and they all ran away at the end of the class," the old man said with a wry smile, "They couldn't bear this."
"We can bear it," Hu Kailing assured, patting his chest. "Jinjiling is afraid of poverty, and we don't want to live in poverty anymore. Director Yue pointed out to us, we will move forward and never look back!"
"As long as you are not too tired, not too tired, and not too boring, I will teach you!" Shen Guozhang's wrinkles slowly relaxed.
"Well, gold and jade meet again. This is a great thing. It used to be that we were only selling gold and stones. Now the price has to double and rise." Yue Wen was very happy to see Shen Guozhang agree, "I know your dream We are going to build a jade carving museum. Don’t worry, I will take care of this and we will build it in the new district in the future!”
The old man's eyes lit up. He slowly took out a large red seal, which was about ten centimeters square. "Director Yue, you are only in your twenties. There are not many cadres like you who only think about the people." He took the carving knife and said, "I have heard about the life that the people of Jinjiling lived in the past and the life they live now... The road to the gas station has also been built. I have also heard about it..."
"In the past few days, all those who buy hibiscus jade have broken through. Some people have also come to my store. The common people have stones in their hands. This is money. The good time for hibiscus jade is coming..." The old man looked at it Yue Wen.
"This was all planned by our Director Yue," Bao Bao interjected.
The carving knife kept scratching the bottom of the ruby seal. The old man said while carving, "Hibiscus jade should have become popular long ago. You see, this ruby is the only one that has the three characteristics of chicken blood red, plum blossom pattern, and warmth." Jade, this chicken-blood plum-blossom jade can’t be found anywhere in the country.”
"A jade with red color is extremely valuable", "A thousand pieces of gold is easy to get, but a ruby is hard to find." In recent years, any jade with red color has become a hot focus of collection, such as chicken blood stone, Nanhong, and Warring States red, and their value is It has risen tens of thousands of times. The rise is so fast and so high that it is jaw-dropping.
"I will give this seal to you." The old man picked up the large seal of chicken blood plum blossom jade and gently stamped it on a piece of rice paper. The ruby jade was like blood and the handwriting was bright red. Yue Wen couldn't help but look serious and read softly. road--
