Chapter 212 The Alliance of Jade Pestle

Chapter 212 Jade Pestle Alliance

"Okay! I accept it today!"

The mountains are high and the rivers are long, we will meet again later!" The white-haired old man finally chose to surrender.

A check for four million U.S. dollars was written to Zhang Junping.

It seemed that Zhang Junping just said a few words, took out his pistol and turned it around a few times, and then the white-haired old man gave in. It seemed like a child's play.

However, without personal experience, one would never know how much pressure Zhang Junping brought to the other party.

You can recall that Zhang Junping once looked at a Siberian tiger, competed with each other in strength, and forced the Siberian tiger away.

How can ordinary people withstand such a momentum?

That is to say, the old man has come from the war years, experienced the rain of bullets, and has the skills to survive.

If it were a delicate and savage woman, she would have been so frightened that she collapsed to the ground.

After the white-haired old man handed the check to Zhang Junping, he took his granddaughter and left quickly.

After leaving the flea market, I got into a Maybach and immediately collapsed in the car.

All clothes were soaked.

"Grandpa, what's wrong with you?" the delicate girl asked anxiously in fright.

"Grandpa is fine, just take it easy.

After walking too much at night, I finally got a ghost!

Girl, remember in the future, never use such bad rules again.

In the antique shop, there are crouching tigers, hidden dragons, and countless strange people and strange things.

You never know when you will hit a brick wall.

Today is a lesson." The white-haired old man shook his head and smiled bitterly, educating his granddaughter.

"Grandpa, is it as powerful as you said?

Isn’t he just a young man?”

"Miss, what I said is right. Although that person didn't look at us just now, it gave me the feeling that he was being stared at by a tiger.

If I dare to move, I will be torn into pieces by the tigers." The bodyguard captain sitting in the passenger seat said with a wry smile.

I was also defending myself. The foreigner nearby just now didn’t know what happened.

Because Zhang Junping and the old man always communicate in Mandarin.

However, the bodyguard captain knew this, and he would be derelict in his duty if he did not come out to protect the master and the lady.

"I know you were right not to come out. If you come out, you may face even more crazy revenge from the other party."

"Grandpa, what's the matter? It just messed up one of his transactions, and those bone china are not worth much money." The delicate girl said somewhat unacceptable.

“It’s not about more money or less, it’s about us breaking the rules!

In the antique shop, rules are more important than anything else!

Without rules, the antique shop would cease to exist.

Countless people who rely on antique shops for a living will also lose their jobs." The white-haired old man explained with a wry smile.

He understands all these principles, but he has been abroad for too long and has forgotten some of the rules.

He tasted the sweetness of breaking the rules again and again, which made him a little forgetful.

I came to Prussia this time because I accidentally got a treasure map of a hidden treasure. I came here to find out the information and then make plans.

As a result, I met Royal Worcester Bone China, and my greed caused me to get into such big trouble.

Fortunately, the loss of money and misfortune was finally dealt with.

Zhang Junping took the check and looked at the signature on it: Weng Xingqing.

I couldn't help but curse: It turns out to be this old guy.

If I had known earlier, this knife would have cut harder.

However, the killing was not light.

Weng Xingqing's main property is the precious books and antique calligraphy and paintings inherited from Weng Tonghe.

His assets are worth tens of millions.

After collecting the check, Zhang Junping squatted in front of the stall selling bone china and asked with a smile: "Ten marks a piece, how about delivering it to the warehouse for me?"

Although the stall owner's work is not authentic, Zhang Junping never gets angry with money.

Still the same sentence: You can't kill me with one shot, I'm alive again, and I'll still do business with you, as long as the price is fair.

"Sell!" The stall owner stared at Zhang Junping for a while and gritted his teeth.

Although he knew that these bone china must be worth more money, he set up a stall to sell them and didn't know when they would be sold.

It is better to sell it to Zhang Junping at once, so that I can spend more time with my family.

It's a pity that I understood the truth a little late, otherwise I wouldn't have become a joke at the flea market.

After the stall owner delivered the bone china to the warehouse, Zhang Junping took out his checkbook and wrote him a check.

Check transactions are very common abroad. Basically, transactions of more than one thousand yuan are done by check.

Moreover, if you use cash for transactions, you may be investigated by the tax department because you are suspected of tax evasion.

In Europe and the United States, carrying large amounts of cash with you may be suspected of breaking the law, and it will be very troublesome if you are caught.

After completing the transaction, Zhang Junping continued to visit the flea market.

There is no difference in form between flea markets and domestic temple fairs or rural markets. The only difference is that one mainly sells new goods and the other mainly sells second-hand goods.

"How do you sell this?" Zhang Junping picked up a hairpin and asked the stall owner.

"This hairpin was left by my grandmother. It is said that it is jewelry from your mysterious East. It is made of gold and has precious stones on it." The stall owner introduced Zhang Junping first and then offered a price. "If you want it,

, give one thousand marks."

"This is gilt gold, not pure gold! Pure gold is too soft to be made into jewelry like this.

In other words, the gem you mentioned is worth a little bit, but the gem is too small and there is no way to remove it.

I'll give you fifty marks at most!" Zhang Junping cut the sole of his foot with a knife.

"Impossible! Fifty marks. Someone just gave me a hundred marks and I didn't even sell it!"

"I'll give you a little more, sixty marks!" Zhang Junping ignored him saying that he didn't sell the one hundred dollars and directly gave him an increase of ten yuan.

After some haggling, Zhang Junping paid eighty marks to get the hairpin.

This hairpin costs eighty marks, so it’s a small mistake.

This gilt jade hairpin was made by the palace craftsman.

It is an object that belongs to the palace.

This should have been snatched from the palace when the Eight-Nation Allied Forces entered BJ.

I always feel that Chinese people always selectively ignore that Prussia was also one of the Eight-Power Allied Forces, and once rented Qingdao and occupied Shandong.

The damage caused to China is also not small.

However, the Chinese people seem to be particularly tolerant of Prussia.

Perhaps the Benzi people who subsequently occupied Shandong were too hateful and used their evil deeds to cover up the evil deeds of Prussia.

That's why I unconsciously ignored Prussia.

Zhang Junping was playing with this gold-plated emerald hairpin in his hand and continued to look at other goods on the stall.

This stall owner may have a hosta in his hand, and maybe other items.

Sure enough, Zhang Junping found several more good items in his stall.

Two cloisonné enamel snuff bottles. The inner wall of one snuff bottle is painted with the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, and the other is painted with a picture of swimming fish emerging from the sea.

It is not difficult to carve patterns on the outer wall, but it requires some skills to carve patterns on the inner wall.

In a small space, the world is sketched with skillful strokes.

This requires extremely superb craftsmanship and painting skills.

Painting inside a snuff bottle is not a blind painting. The picture must be beautiful, compact in structure, and artistic, which is several times more difficult than painting on paper.

Snuff was not invented in China. It was introduced to China from the West during the Ming Dynasty.

Snuff was not very popular during the Ming Dynasty, and it was not until the Qing Dynasty that it really flourished.

Snuff is also becoming more and more particular. At first, snuff was stored in wooden boxes, and later snuff bottles were introduced.

Snuff bottles are becoming more and more exquisite, including porcelain snuff bottles, cloisonné enamel snuff bottles, and jade snuff bottles.

There are countless snuff bottles of various materials. To sum up, they are proud of luxury, which is very consistent with the style of the Qing Dynasty.

Two snuff bottles cost one hundred marks, and Zhang Junping successfully won them.

Then I discovered another rare thing.

Jade pestle.

It’s the jade pestle used by the Jade Rabbit to pound medicine in Journey to the West.

How come this thing is so rare, not to mention abroad, even in China?

Some people may feel unlucky when they hear the jade pestle used to pound medicine. In fact, the jade pestle used to pound medicine was an auspicious symbol in ancient times, implying longevity.

Legend has it that the toad balls pounded by the Jade Rabbit with a jade pestle can lead to immortality and immortality.

Therefore, the jade pestle also has the meaning of longevity.

However, the jade pestle in Zhang Junping's hand is not a carving for blessing longevity.

But it has another meaning.

Thousands of gold can be spent on a jade pestle, and a diligent hand will take care of it.

If Yunying wants to, she will pound Xuan Shuang herself.

What we are talking about here is the Jade Pestle Alliance.

It is a beautiful love covenant between men and women.

Ancient people used jade pestles to symbolize a happy marriage.

The piece in Zhang Junping's hand is a jade carving from the Jade Pestle Alliance.

Moreover, the jade used for this Jade Pestle Alliance jade carving is also high-quality Hetian jade.

Mutton-fat jade, even in ancient times, was very cherished, it should be said that it was cherished even more.

Because of the limitations of industrial conditions, Hetian jade in ancient times was more precious than in later generations.

High-quality Hetian jade is already a very good jade.

After some haggling, Zhang Junping finally won the jade carving of the Jade Pestle Alliance for twenty marks.

But this jade carving of the Jade Pestle Alliance is a worthwhile trip.

I will clean the stains on the surface later and it will be an excellent gift for Qiu Wenyan.

Some people may say, that's not a stain, that's Yuqin.

In fact, Yuqin and stains are two completely different concepts.

Yuqin and stains are both pollution, but Yuqin is a pollution that goes deep into the jade, while stains are only surface pollution.

Those with Yuqin are all unearthed cultural relics. They were buried underground for a long time and came into contact with other substances. A certain chemical reaction occurred. Other substances penetrated deeply into the jade muscle to produce a color that is different from jade.

This kind of jade is colorful and varied and is highly sought after by jade lovers.

Therefore, many jade lovers who collect ancient jade will pursue the refreshing color of jade.

The jade pestle in Zhang Junping's hand is a jade carving handed down from ancient times, so it only has stains and no jade Qin.

Zhang Junping bought several things one after another, which made the stall owner very enthusiastic. He kept urging Zhang Junping to see if there was anything else he wanted.

Seeing that Zhang Junping was buying things from ancient oriental countries, and Zhang Junping was an oriental, he simply took out all the oriental objects that he considered and let Zhang Junping choose.
