Chapter 473 Be the director tonight

Here is a brief explanation of high ancient jade, medium ancient jade, and ancient jade.

Divided by age, high ancient jade is the jade from before the Han Dynasty, middle ancient jade is the jade from the Tang, Song and Yuan dynasties, and ancient jade is the jade from the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Judging from the function of jade, jade in the ancient times was mostly sacred jade, ritual jade and royal jade, and there were many burial objects.In the medieval jade period, jade was not popular for burials, but it was popular to use jade as medicine.During the ancient jade period, there were many ways to play with them, including warding off evil spirits, playing with them, being buried with them, and being used as medicine.

Which type of jade is the most valuable?
Of course it is Gao Guyu.

Because ancient jade is very old, carries a royal aura (from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Han Dynasty, only emperors and nobles could use jade), and has simple and exquisite workmanship. The key is that almost all of its jade materials are ancient jade materials from Hetian jade.

Jade cicada is a popular jade product in the Han Dynasty.

There are three types. One is used as decoration on clothing and hats. It is called the crown cicada, which means winning the first place. The sound of a cicada is astonishing.The second is to hang it on the waist or chest, which is called Pei Chan, which means that the waist (cicada) has a lot of money.The third is to put it in the mouth of the deceased as a tongue depressor, which is called a cicada, which means that the deceased can take off its feathers and fly up like a cicada.

Xia Xi's jade cicada is only about the size of a thumb. It is carved entirely from sapphire. The body of the cicada is in the shape of a square rhombus. The yin and yang lines on the head and wings are strongly carved. The wings on the back are like lungs. They are regular and symmetrical, typical of Han carving techniques.

I picked up the things, looked at them, and asked, "Or were they unearthed from the tomb?"

Xia Xi replied: "Of course! Things handed down from ancient times are not as valuable as those unearthed from tombs!"

Nowadays, the ancient jade cicadas on the market or in museums are very rare. One kind was handed down from generation to generation, and the other kind was unearthed.

Since the jade cicada handed down from ancient times has been handled by too many people, it usually has Shantou wax, which is a thicker paste.

Because the unearthed jade cicada has been buried in the ground for too long, soil spots will appear inside the jade, which is often called Qin color.

The color inside this jade is very deep, and it was obviously unearthed from the mausoleum.

I looked at Yu Chan's belly again and saw three small characters in official script engraved inside: Gou Yizi.

Gou Yizi is another name for Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty.

I asked, "Don't tell me this is the burial object of Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty?"

Xia Xi smiled and said: "It must be done! Haven't you already written your name?"

I was shocked: "When the hell did you steal Pingling?!"

Hearing this, Xia Xi took two steps back and said hurriedly: "Damn it! That's what you said. I never said that I touched Pingling! Don't throw a shit basin at our heads!"

"Where did this thing come from?"

"Sun family, Zang family, Tong family, Zeng family... I have many channels, do you care where I come from?!"

The meanings of these families have been explained before, corresponding to being passed down to descendants (grandson), collected by collectors (Zang Tongzang), dug out by tomb robbers (Dongyin Tongtong), and stolen and abducted from others (Zang Tongtong). Zeng family).

The Zeng family may be a bit difficult for everyone to understand.

For example, the Xiaoling Guard Dragon-Slaying Golden Mace in my hand is from a typical Zeng family.

Because this thing used to be in the hands of people from Hoututang, but I think these gangsters who specialize in harming people are very unhappy and kidnapped it. The original owner is the "Zeng family", which means they once owned it.

Xia Xi didn't want to say.

I don’t want to ask anymore.

Xia Xi said: "Just answer one question, can this thing impress Wu Jiajin?"

I nodded: "That's okay. But, are you really going to give this thing to him for free?"

Xia Xi replied: "Grandma! This belongs to Han Chan, Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty. Let him take a look at the smoke coming out of his ancestral tomb! I just used this thing as bait to catch him. After the matter is over , if he is lucky enough to take one more look, he will lose!"

I put the jade cicada back into the box.

"Okay! I will think carefully about what is suitable tonight, and we will finalize it together tomorrow."

Xia Xi grabbed my hand and snatched Yuchan back.

"Su Zi, you go back and think about the situation. Anyway, the presidential suite has been opened and there is Hua Zi in it, so there is no need for you to stuff this Yu Chan into your clothes, just leave it here with me!"

I replied: "I have to see how the bait works. Without this thing around, I won't be inspired!"

Xia Xi smiled and said: "Don't do this to me! I'm going to give it to you, maybe you can go to Hualin Market to replace it for me tonight!"

I:"……"

This guy got it right.

I really want to be free of charge.

I found an experienced worker at Hualin Market and it was too easy to make an exact replica of something in one night. I carried the fakes with me at all times and exchanged them with the real ones when I had the chance, without even noticing.

The old manager's things will be in vain if you don't use them.It's a pity that Xia Xi found out.

I had no choice but to turn around with Xiaozhu and go back to my room.

Around eleven o'clock in the evening.

Xia Xi sent me a message.

"Come out and look for a girl for Wu Jiajin!"

"Where to look?"

"My room! I haven't been idle these days. I asked my friends to introduce some girls from the acting academy who are good in appearance, eloquence, reaction, and performance ability. I made an appointment with them to come to my room for an interview at 15:[-] tonight. Let's Be an interviewer first, select a few good talents, and be a director tonight! Enjoy it!"

I was relatively innocent at the time.

I don't know what Xia Xi means by saying that it's nice to be a director tonight.

He replied with one word very readily.

"Row!"

I opened the door and prepared to go downstairs.

But just turned around.

I found Xiaozhu with his hands on his chin, looking at the scenery outside the window.

The door to her room is open.

After seeing me.

Xiaozhu asked: "Brother, why are you going?"

I replied: "I'm going to interview some actresses!"

Xiaozhu asked with a smile: "Brother Xia has an appointment with the actress in the room, right?"

"Yes!"

"He's going to audition actresses with you tonight to be a director, right?"

"how do you know?"

"Don't do this! I'll go for you. You have a good rest!"

"No...can you?"

"Oh! Don't worry, I'm definitely more reliable than you!"

Xiaozhu pushed me into the room forcefully and closed the door.

I sent a message to Xia Xi: "Xiaozhu is here, she will do these things for me."

Xia Xi's message back was very strange: "Nani?! Walter is squirting?! Shete! Those named Su, the Pearl River is right below, please jump into the river and commit suicide to apologize!"

I replied: "Speak humanly!"

This guy won't pay attention to me anymore.

I didn't care anymore.

Early the next morning.

Xiaozhu asked me to get up.

After I opened the door.

I found a beautiful girl next to her, plainly dressed and shy.

Xiaozhu said to her: "Dai Lin, call Brother Su quickly."

Dai Lin said timidly: "Brother Su..."

I asked Xiaozhu: "What is this?"

Xiaozhu was overjoyed: "Dai Lin was the actress we chose last night!"
