The auctions and auction houses in Wenli belong to literary creations and are different from reality, so please don’t take them seriously.
For example, in reality, if the seller withdraws from the auction without reason, the liquidated damages will be much higher.
Moreover, it is impossible for an auction held by a top auction house to allow a group of buyers to come to the viewing table for appraisal, as only a few items will be auctioned that day.

There are also jadeite solutions, such as the solution stone bridge section.
Can passers-by watch the stone dissection on site?
Yes! But most of them are small materials. A skilled stone cutter can cut the stone with his hands without fixing it.
But for things that are slightly larger and cannot be lifted, such as a football that weighs more than 30 pounds, people will definitely not be able to operate it with their hands and must be fixed.
Generally speaking, for materials of this weight, no one knows what jade looks like before it is cut.
Because the litholysis machine has a dust cover, otherwise the dust and the small particles sputtered out will not be able to stay around, and goggles are sometimes not enough.
Some stone dissolving machines are also equipped with a machine similar to a range hood to extract dust.
(Everyone wears glasses and has similar machines on the operating table for polishing lenses)
In addition, have you ever seen window sill stones or cabinet countertops cut during decoration?
Without ventilation equipment, the dust would have made it difficult to breathe.
If the quartz stone is not covered with a dust cover or watered, it will be much more spectacular than a quartz stone marble countertop cut a few centimeters thick.
So before the cover is opened, you can't see anything green or not, or whether it's cross or not.
However, in the section involving gambling on stones, in order to increase the sense of immersion in the wonder of passers-by, sections such as Passer-by A: Oops, it’s green, or Passer-by B: Oops, it’s gone up, it’s up, it’s up big.
It is impossible to describe the stone-cutting scene as the same as cutting wood or turning beads.

Also, you may think that what I write about is about picking up and inheriting antiques in an orderly manner.
For example, calligraphy and painting, calligraphy and painting cannot be dug out of the ground. Even if they are carefully kept, they will be in tatters, let alone buried underground.
My protagonist will not touch any ancient artifacts such as underworld wares, bronzes, ancient jades from before the Tang Dynasty, and ivory, rhinoceros and horns.
Even if I write, I am still saving antiques.
Or, for example, an antique vendor used fake Tang Sancai to trick the protagonist, but the protagonist missed an ancient painting.
My writing on antique appraisal must have a positive meaning and let more people know that antiques are valuable.
In vernacular, why can we see authentic ancient calligraphy and painting, as well as official kiln porcelain?
Of course there is artistic value, but the most important thing is value.
Antiques are valuable, so collectors will treasure them and pass them on to future generations, thus passing them on from generation to generation.
Who bothers to collect this stuff if it’s not worth anything?
If the antiques are not valuable, or if you don’t know the value of the antiques, then even if the original copy of "Yongle Dadian" is kept in a small village, it may be sold as waste paper.
In the Ming Dynasty, the Doucai Chicken Cup was worth one hundred thousand, so you had to keep it carefully if you got it. If it were worth a copper plate, it would have been broken long ago.
My protagonist doesn’t cheat or cheat, and there won’t be that disgusting scene where the antique is obviously worth a million, but it’s bought for dozens of dollars.
The ultimate goal of my protagonist is to build a personal museum.
