She took a deep breath and said directly, "Yes, I volunteer to be a medicine pigeon, so that I can get two thousand and five thousand as a reward."
I cursed, went back, picked up my things, and headed downstairs. It was past four o'clock, and Panjiayuan would open at around five o'clock.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked to Warwick Bridge, this long-haired girl ran and caught up with me. It could be seen that she was running very hard, and she kept covering her stomach with one hand.
"Why are you following me?"
"me!"
She turned pale and said, "I need money now! I think you are a capable person! I want to go with you!"
"What's your name? How old are you?"
"My surname is Bai! You can just call me Xiaobai! I am 20 this year!"
"Haha, Xiaobai? My name is Xiaohei! Your name is so casual." .??.
"You've got the wrong person. Firstly, I have no ability! Secondly, I'm poor! To tell you the truth, my whole body is over a hundred times faster! Most of them were just stolen from your boyfriend! I'm so poor
I can only eat this, if you want to eat it I’ll give it to you!”
I took out the already cold hand cake from my pocket and handed it to her.
She shook her head desperately and said, "I believe in my vision! You must be a capable man!"
Her eyes were red and her voice was urgent, "Within ten days! I have to raise 100,000 yuan! My grandma has a brain hemorrhage and is hospitalized! If I can't get the money, she won't be able to have the operation! The hospital already owes her money.
It’s a waste!”
She looked directly at me and said loudly, "For this money! I am willing to do anything! I can work as a cow or a horse! I can even kill people!"
I frowned secretly.
She's not lying, I can see that she really might kill someone for 100,000 yuan.
I have encountered this kind of thing several times. Once, Dou Sprout even teased me that I am a charitable person who likes to give alms. It was so annoying!
One hundred thousand yuan, this amount of money cost me a week ago, and I spit it out! The problem is that I now Now the Clay Bodhisattva cannot save himself when he crosses the river! I have eaten the last meal but not the next!
"Okay! Stop following me! I can't help you!"
After walking about a hundred meters, I looked back and saw her standing on the Warwick Bridge in a daze, lost in thought.
I said to myself in my heart, "Damn it, Xiang Yunfeng, sooner or later you will die at the hands of a woman."
I ran back quickly and said, "Hey! There's a plan to make quick money, but I can't guarantee success! You think about it, what about your injury?"
"Don't think about it! Brother! I'll do it! My injury doesn't matter!" She looked very excited.
I took a bite of the hand cake, swallowed it and said, "I don't sympathize with you. You are a woman. You have advantages in some aspects and can help me. I will make a donkey trap. You will listen to my arrangements and cooperate with me throughout the process."
"
"I don't understand what a donkey trap is, brother, I don't know your name yet."
"Just call me Brother Xiang. You only need to do it. You don't need to understand it. Just watch me the whole time."
In Panjiayuan in 2006, you could pick up small ones at the street stalls, but it was unrealistic to pick up large ones that cost hundreds of thousands. There were fake handicrafts from all over the country gathered here, and even some good ones were sold at very high prices. Trust me,
People who come here to shop are not human beings in the eyes of the vendors, they are just pigs! If they are well-dressed, regardless of gender, they are just big fat pigs.
This woman's real name was Bai Shuang, so I called her Xiao Bai. I asked her to quickly find a place to tidy up, change into good clothes, bring a fake diamond ring and a gold bracelet, and come to the north gate of Panjiayuan to meet me at one o'clock in the afternoon.
Convergence.
After she left, I didn't go into the market. Instead, I squatted on the steps of the north gate parking lot and waited.
The locals should know it, right? At that time, there were five or six people with Xinjiang accents at the door, holding a lot of white Hetian jade for sale. If you dare to ask such Xinjiang people how much it costs, they will chase you.
When I get home, I will keep pestering you if you don’t buy it.
The jade sold by people in Xinjiang is very white, as white as snow. Of course it is not the real thing, nor is it made of plastic resin. This kind of jade is made from white jade powder through a hydraulic press.
I fell in love with a white jade Pixiu and asked him how much it cost.
He immediately said, "Friend! My good friend! I am from Xinjiang! Authentic Hetian jade! Good friends like to give 20,000! Let's make a good friend with 20,000!"
“Too expensive! Don’t want it!”
"Good friend, tell me! How much do you say? The stuff is good! Hetian jade!" He had a large bunch of white jade bracelets on his hands, making a jingling sound.
"Twenty." I said directly.
He glared and immediately said in authentic Mandarin, "You damn thing, are you just looking for trouble? Get out of here, don't affect my business!"
I was not angry even after being scolded, so I smiled and said, "Brother, you are made of jade powder, and the purchase cost is only a dozen yuan. So, I will give you eighty, sell me one, and you can make sixty in vain."
.”
He stared at me for a few seconds, then suddenly grinned and whispered, "You pick one, don't make any noise, it's hard to touch fat pigs these days."
I bought the white jade Pixiu at 80, and then I went to the scrap station to find some rusty scrap iron. I asked the scrap station owner to borrow an angle grinder and started grinding the scrap iron.
What I wanted was "rust", and soon I collected a small bag of it.
The most advanced way to make old ancient jade is the "lamb leg method", which is to cut the mutton leg and stuff the jade in, and take it out every two years. The surface of this kind of jade is extremely warm and moist, and it will produce a strange "bloodshot" look.
Even experts can't recognize the patina. My time is limited, so I resorted to using the ancient method of rust.
Dig a bag of soil, any soil will do, add water and mix it into mud, then wrap the jade brave with mud, similar to the style of a beggar's chicken.
Then throw it into the fire and burn it. The fire should not be small and burn for one and a half hours. You must use Wrap it in mud and burn it. If you burn the jade directly, it will turn black.
Pick it out from the fire and break up the surface mud. While it is still hot, use fine sandpaper to rub the jade surface vigorously. Remember to polish in one direction.
If you look at the ancient jade in this way under a magnifying glass, you will see tiny traces of wear and tear.
Take a bag of baking soda, half a bag of tea leaves, boil water and let it cool, then throw the polished jade into the water and soak it.
Then mix the old vinegar and water in a ratio of 1:4, add raw rust, and heat it in the pot again.
Get a pot of boiling and bubbling black water, scoop it out with a ladle, and pour it onto the jade. At this time, the surface of the jade will generate black slurry and rust at a speed visible to the naked eye, much like the pitted unearthed state.
.
The last step is to apply a little sewing machine oil and rub it back and forth with a dry towel for half an hour, and you're done.
This method is much more sophisticated than simply corroding with strong acid, soaking feces in water, boiling tea leaves, etc. Most people can't tell the difference between true and false.
I took a look at it myself and was very satisfied with my work. In this way, this fake piece bought for 80 yuan was transformed into a Ming Dynasty Hetian white jade Pixiu unearthed from Shengkeng.
Remember these words, in this industry as long as you are bold, have many tricks, and follow wild methods, you will definitely make money. How bold people are! How rich the land is. By the way, let me tell you a true story. In 2005, there was a counterfeit shop specializing in the West District.
A young man from Ruyao sold goods to a foreign woman for more than 1.9 million yuan in three days. Later, people from foreign embassies came to Panjiayuan to look for her, and the young man had already run away!
At 12:30, I was waiting for Xiaobai to arrive at the north gate of Panjiayuan, and I bought a box lunch with the last ten yuan I had.
A little after one o'clock, she came on time.
When I saw it, my eyes suddenly lit up.
It's a beauty!
It really goes with the old saying, if a woman can dress herself up, there is nothing ugly about her.
