After loading the chain saw into the car, I quickly turned around and explained that the girl brushing her teeth in front of me was Xia Miqi.
"I told Sister Xia that I'm just borrowing this thing from your house. Your mother isn't in the store?"
The girl's cheeks bulged, she spat out some mouthwash, looked at me and said, "Wait a minute, I'll ask my mother."
She dialed the number from the landline in the store. I walked in and heard Sister Xia's voice coming from the other end of the phone.
"Well, Xiaoqi, I understand. Let the young man take the things away."
Xia Miqi put down the phone. She looked me up and down and said suspiciously, "Do you have a phone number? Leave your number so I won't be found."
I hadn't bought a mobile phone yet, so I smiled and told her Dou Sprout Zai's number.
At around 10 o'clock in the evening, we pulled the chain saw back to Shapotou, paid the driver the head, and asked him to help carry it to the yard.
"Thank you, boss. I'll go then. I'm calling for someone who needs a car."
After we agreed, the driver happily took the money and drove away.

After tinkering with the chain saw for a few minutes, Douyazai pulled the power strip out of the house and plugged it in.
Dou Sprout pressed the start button, but there was no roar as expected, and the thing didn't respond.
Isn't it really bad if it has been left for too long? I walked over and took a closer look.
Fortunately, I think it's just that the oil tank of the chain saw is out of oil, so the machine should be fine.
I got oil on my head and started the fire five or six times in a row. I heard a clicking sound followed by a boom, and the chain saw started.
I opened the protective cover and took a look. The cutting disc was completely worn and rotated normally.
There were no outsiders in the courtyard at this time, so we wouldn't be too worried about being discovered when we discussed it.
The chain saw can be used, but the biggest problem right now is where to cut. The rough stone is more than 30 centimeters high and 20 centimeters wide. We are not sure where to cut it.
The characteristic of Alxa agate rough stone is that the skin of the stone is thin and brittle. If a rough stone of this size is cut little by little with a small grinding wheel, it will definitely chip. The best way to deal with it is to cut it with an oil saw.
After taking out the rough stone and studying it for a long time, Douyazai and I had different opinions. He thought it should be cut in half with a chain saw, and he also said that the best position for agate is in the middle.
I don't agree with what Dou Yazai said about cutting it in half. If you do that, the original piece of material will become incomplete. If we plan to make a sculpture, the subject matter will be affected.
Then I proposed a compromise solution, and I agreed after thinking about it.
We plan to cut off a piece of the top of the original stone. This will not waste materials and can clearly see the internal structure. The cut off piece can also be used as a brand pendant or other gadgets.
"Is it stuck?" Dou Sprout asked nervously, pressing his hand on the green button.
I shook the rough stone, nodded and said no problem, let's get started.
After that, I took one last look at the stone and put the chainsaw cover on it.
Listening to the roar of the machine cutting, Xiaoxuan said nervously: "Shouldn't we burn incense sticks or something? Pray for success."
"Yes, I forgot. I bought the things the day before yesterday. Yazai, please take them out and light them up," Tou said with a smile.
Baotou actually bought two bundles of incense for this stone, just for the sake of getting rich smoothly.
There was no incense burner, so Dou Sprout lit the incense and bowed with his hand, saying that the God of Wealth would bless him that everything would go well.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the machine.
Time passed by very long. You can see what the inside of the raw blood agate stone looks like right away.
"Click." There was an idling sound from the chain saw wheel.
"opened!"
"Take it out and take a look!" Dou Sprout unplugged the power cord excitedly.
He looked at me and nodded in greeting.
I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous, because this thing costs a lot of money.
When I walked to the chain saw, I took a deep breath and placed my right hand on the iron-covered handrail.
"It's open." I slowly lifted the iron cover.
Very impressed.
There was a moon in the sky over Yinchuan that night. Under the white moonlight, a touch of red appeared in front of my eyes, which was particularly eye-catching.
I thought that if this stone was jade and I was lucky enough to get the imperial green color, it should be that breathtaking green color, but unfortunately it was red.
This red color appears when the stone reflects light. This is the first time in my life that I have seen it.
This stone is truly special by nature, an outlier among Alxa agates.
If I have to compare things of the same type, at the Hanhai night auction of palace jewelry a few years ago, there was a green jade landscape plaque from the Qianlong period. The workmanship was from the manufacturing office, and the material was the top-grade imperial green.
, when you look at this sign under the light, the green color seems to be alive. The so-called dragon has water everywhere, and the green color is like water flowing on the surface of the sign with the refraction of light. It is really wonderful.
Agate has low hardness and coarse particles. If you want to have this kind of halo effect, the base must be clean and pure.
Foreigners with big noses in the north like onyx and emerald. Aza said that the price for big noses is more than 400. I guess even if Aza is exaggerating, it shouldn't be much different.
The Jin brothers, who are very popular in the jewelry industry in Yinchuan, don't know yet that the stone they have been chasing has been secretly opened by us in a small square in Shapotou.
After being stunned for several minutes, Dou Sprouts suddenly threw away the incense and said excitedly: "It's distributed! It's distributed! It looks like something good! We're going to distribute it!"
The stone was cut open, the dust settled, and I breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yazai, don't be too happy too soon. No matter how beautiful it is, it is still just a stone, and what we need is real money."
"Yes, monetization is the most important thing," I asked the boss what to do next, whether to sell it directly or process it.
The head must be processed, firstly because the rough stone changes greatly after processing and is not easily recognized by others, and secondly because good workmanship can significantly increase the selling price of the final product.
He paced back and forth in the yard. After two or three minutes, he turned around and said, "Yunfeng, go back to Panjiayuan and see if you can find a good southern worker. My friend can't talk about this stone industry. I want to see
I'm sorry, I don't trust the engravers here in Yinchuan."
"Take the rough stone back to Panjiayuan? Should I go alone?"
"That's not right. I heard that it takes a long time to carve the finished product. It won't come out in three or two days. Am I waiting there all the time?"
He patted my shoulder on the head and said sincerely that I would rest assured that I would only be able to handle such a valuable thing if I leave it to you, and I must handle it well.
After he finished speaking, he added: "Yazai Xiaoxuan will go back with you. With more people and more eyes, the road will be safer."
I said you are the boss, why don't you leave?
He asked me if I still remembered the white horse flat vase.
I said of course I remember, it was only a few days ago.
"I gave that thing to someone else. There are still things to deal with later. I have to find him. It will probably take several days to solve it. I have Yazai's phone number and I will contact him then."
"This thing is very important to us. You may not be able to get so much after going into the pit several times. Yunfeng, you must be careful on the way."
Seeing the serious look on his head, I nodded and said don't worry.
