Brother Ye, where are you going?
Where are you going? Ye Jianjun stared and said, "I've already forgotten what you said, right?"
Yu Fei looked confused about what I said. He really didn't remember what he said to Ye Jianjun.
Hey, you kid, you're still pretending to be confused, right? Didn't you tell me that you wanted to go to Changhua to look for chicken blood stones with me? Ye Jianjun said.
Oops, Yu Fei slapped his head. The idea of going to Changhua to see chicken blood stones originated from the last Treasures of the World column. But so many things happened during this period, Yu Fei had already given up the idea of going to Changhua. At this time
I only remembered it after being reminded by Ye Jianjun.
Brother Ye, I'm so sorry, I really forgot. Yu Fei said embarrassedly: Look, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, how about we go there after the new year?
At the opening ceremony of the Yongle Museum, Lin Xiaoxi also specially sent a piece of soapstone seal. Although it is not very precious, it is very exquisite. Yu Fei also likes it very much. It is not impossible to go to Changhua. It’s just that the mood of the new year has been
It was getting thicker and thicker, and Yu Fei was feeling homesick. He didn't want to run around and bump on the road at this time.
Come on, I can't believe what you say. After the New Year, I still don't know where to catch you. Anyway, I've parked the car and come outside. Let's get in the car and leave. I've asked,
There will be a bloodstone trade fair tomorrow, and I can catch it now. Ye Jianjun has been let go by Yu Fei several times, and this time he doesn't believe anything he says.
Okay. Brother Ye, let’s make an agreement first and we’ll go there for one day. We’ll be back early the day after tomorrow. I don’t want to celebrate the New Year outside. I’ve already made an agreement with my parents. Yu Fei said.
Because of this matter, Yu Fei has let Ye Jianjun go a few times, and he is really embarrassed. But he is not willing to let this matter affect his return home for the New Year.
After experiencing life and death, Yu Fei can't say he has a complete enlightenment, but he cherishes the relationship with his family even more. He now has more money than he can spend in a lifetime, and he doesn't want to be so busy anymore.
Don't worry. Ye Jianjun said: I can't miss your New Year celebrations. If nothing else, I have to come back to celebrate the New Year, otherwise the old man will not break my legs.
After Ye Jianjun said this, Yu Fei felt relieved. Yes, the New Year is of greater significance to a big family like the Ye family, and Ye Jianjun would never dare not come back to celebrate the New Year.
After getting into Ye Jianjun's Land Rover, Yu Fei found that there were two bodyguards in the driver's seat and one in the passenger seat. It was a long way to Changhua, so it was safer for them to take turns driving.
On the way, Yu Fei called Lin Xiaoxi. When he heard that Yu Fei had come to Changhua, Lin Xiaoxi was so happy that he drove to the highway intersection to greet him.
Sister Lin, just tell me the way. I can't afford to pick me up here in person. Yu Fei said. Lin Xiaoxi is still so beautiful. Even though Yu Fei didn't have that intention, he still admired it.
.
What surprised Yu Fei was that this woman, Lin Xiaoxi, also drove a Land Rover.
Teacher Yu, you don't know, the road here in Changhua is not easy. Lin Xiaoxi said with a smile: When I came here, I was worried that you would drive an ordinary car. Fortunately, you drove a Land Rover.
Why do you still have to pick a car on this road in Changhua? Yu Fei asked strangely.
This is not the case. Lin Xiaoxi smiled and said: Forget it, Teacher Yu, you will understand after you feel it for yourself later.
Following Lin Xiaoxi's car, Yu Fei and his party entered Changhua.
The bumps on the road finally made Yu Fei understand the meaning of Lin Xiaoxi's words. The roads in Changhua were really bad. There were large and small potholes everywhere on the road. Those who didn't know better thought that there had just been a bombing here. What if
It is an ordinary car, and the chassis is too low, so there will inevitably be some collisions, but when driving a Land Rover, you don't have to worry about it.
Sister Lin, Changhua is the place where soapstone is produced, and the people here should be very wealthy. Why is the road condition so bad? Yu Fei asked curiously.
It stands to reason that in order to attract merchants, Changhua should also build roads.
Teacher Yu, you may not know that although Changhua produces chicken blood stone, the people here are not rich, and most of the money is made by the merchants in the middle. Although the people of Changhua may increase their income by finding a piece of chicken blood stone, but looking for
Making a good soapstone is very hard work. Many people even wander in the mountains for many years and rarely see their families. In terms of life alone, it may be more difficult than in ordinary places.
Lin Xiaoxi sighed and said: In recent years, there have been fewer and fewer Changhua chicken blood stones, and it has become even more difficult to find a good stone. I am afraid that the chance of winning a lottery is not much different. There have even been mining accidents.
More than ten people were thrown into the mountain by the collapsed mine, and their blood dyed the rocks red. That's not called chicken blood stone, but human blood stone.
After listening to Lin Xiaoxi's words, Yu Fei fell into silence.
If quarrying is so difficult, why are there so many people quarrying? Ye Jianjun asked strangely.
It's very simple. Even if the chance of winning the lottery jackpot is low, there are still many people who will buy it without hesitation. The quarrymen in Changhua also think so. They think they may be able to quarry a good piece of chicken blood stone and become rich overnight.
Rich. It's really sad to say that.
Lin Xiaoxi's words made both Yu Fei and Ye Jianjun feel a little bored. The group didn't know what to say.
Yu Fei looked at the riddled mountains and rivers outside the car window, wondering whether he should come or not.
Yu Fei and Ye Jianjun first visited Lin Xiaoxi's grandfather. The old man had been fighting with chicken-blood stone for his whole life. It would not be an exaggeration to call him a stone idiot.
Yu Fei brought an ancient jade piece to Lin Xiaoxi and an inkstone to her grandfather, which the old man liked very much.
Originally, Lin Xiaoxi's grandfather wanted to invite them to stay at his home. However, Ye Jianjun had already booked a hotel before, so the two of them did not stay at Lin Xiaoxi's home.
Yu Fei did not refuse Lin Xiaoxi's kindness in taking them to visit the antique market.
As the price of bloodstone rises, there are more and more counterfeiting cases. Especially the counterfeiting of rough stones has become rampant.
Yu Fei has his true energy, so of course he doesn't worry about buying fakes, but if the quality of the bloodstone is too low, it will eventually affect his mood.
The trading meeting was held in a village on the outskirts of Changhua City. It was very simple. The courtyard where the meeting was originally held in the village was slightly repaired.
In the yard, there are small thatched sheds built by local people. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Yu Fei would not have believed that this place actually traded tens of millions of yuan worth of precious soapstone.
Perhaps because the New Year is approaching, there are not many foreign merchants at the trade fair. Even if there are some people walking through it, they rarely take action.
The scale of the current trade fair is much smaller than in the past. Lin Xiaoxi said: The main reason is that the chicken blood stone is almost exhausted. If you look at the mountain in the distance, many places inside have been hollowed out, which is very prone to danger.
However, because bloodstone is non-renewable, the price will be higher than before. If you two encounter any materials and are unsure, Xiaoxi can give some suggestions.
Although Lin Xiaoxi is not very old, he has been collecting bloodstones with his grandfather since he was a child. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has rich experience.
That's natural. Ye Jianjun said: Then I'll trouble you.
Bloodstone trading is modeled on the trading method of raw jadeite, and there is a lot of gambling involved.
Now Ye Jianjun was dumbfounded. He did have a lot of research on jade, but Ye Jianjun didn't know which stubborn stone had chicken blood in it. And Yu Fei seemed to be a novice, so how could he choose a stone?
Lin Xiaoxi was following him, but seeing the way Lin Xiaoxi's long skirt was fluttering, Ye Jianjun was really worried. However, she was the one who knew the bloodstone best among them, so he could only place his hope on her.
Most of the stalls here have relatively few stones. The largest stall only has more than 30 stones, while the smaller stalls only have one or two.
Sister Lin, didn't you say there were merchants? Yu Fei asked strangely.
Teacher Yu, merchants come here not to sell stones, but to buy them. As soon as Lin Xiaoxi said these words, Yu Fei immediately understood.
To be precise, this is the first-level market for Changhua chicken blood stone trading, and it is not one that has been screened by merchants. Yu Fei immediately had some expectations in his heart. To be continued...
