Hello, 1983

Liu Qingshan held the pebble in his hand, it was roughly round, and the surface was bruised and tumbled, probably because it had been washed in water for a long time.

The stone is very transparent, and you can see a golden red inside without looking at the light, and the color is very beautiful.

If this was carved into a utensil and then polished, it must be very dazzling.

Liu Qingshan reached out and touched the little boy's head: Where did this agate stone come from, was it picked up by the river?

Since there are agate mines, there must be materials washed by river water, similar to jade, and such materials are often of the best grade.

Yeah. The little guy nodded, then thought for a while, then grinned: Look at the sun, it looks good.

Looking at the little guy in front of him, Liu Qingshan couldn't help but think of the second son before Jiapigou, so he laughed:

I want this piece of agate, but if you want to buy sugar, you must prepare a big bag of noodles.

The little kids didn't understand at first, but one of them reacted first:

That's not a lot of money, oh!

The children shouted and danced together, and the big snot bubbles almost came out beautiful.

Liu Qingshan took out two five-six tickets: This one goes home to your adults.

Then he took out a five-dollar steel worker: You can buy sugar here.

He knew that even if the little ones had big tickets, they would definitely be confiscated by their parents, so he gave them another five yuan.

The little boy took the bills, looked at the two fifty-yuan bills, turned them over and looked at them, and muttered:

I've never seen money like this before, so it can't be fake, right?

Tiger Han grabbed the big ticket from the little boy: I'll give it to you, Laozi, you little bastards, get out of here, why do you still want to eat here?

The children took five yuan and ran away in a hurry. There was no small shop in their village, and they had to travel more than ten miles to the retail point of the brigade's supply and marketing cooperative to buy sugar.

Tiger Han also carefully looked at the big bill in his hand: I heard that it was fifty yuan,

It's the first time I've seen it.

It's no wonder that the little ones don't know each other, and even the adults are similar.

Liu Qingshan handed the water material to Xiao Hao and told him to put it away first, and then said to Tiger Han:

Uncle Han, wait until next summer, and lead everyone to the river to find more. This kind of running water has better quality and is more valuable.

Tiger Han nodded eagerly. He also thought of this problem just now. If the river surface was not frozen now, he would want to bring someone over to look for it tomorrow.

A few people were chatting when they saw someone else pushing the door into the house, holding a stone that was three flat and four not round in his arms, about a circle smaller than a volleyball.

The visitor is in his thirties, sloppy, and after taking off the dog skin hat on his head, he has several ringworms on his head, which is generally called bald shavings.

Scorpion, why are you here? Tiger Han was a little disgusted.

Han Leizi kept nodding his head and bowing: I heard that this little brother collects stones, I don't happen to have one.

This guy looks very happy, with a pair of eight-character eyebrows, when he talks, his eyebrows run around.

Liu Qingshan found Zhang Ganzi's shadow from him, so he nodded to the other party: Okay, I'll take a look at the ground first, it's big enough.

Okay, thank you little brother, thank you little brother. Han Leizi was a little excited and bowed.

When he shook it, Liu Qingshan's sensitive ears heard the sound of gurgling, as if it came from the other's belly.

Could it be that you just filled a belly of water and walked around?

In this big winter, who has nothing to do with so much cold water, could it be...

Liu Qingshan's attention was immediately placed on the stone.

And this Han Leizi threw the stone in his arms on the ground with a puff, it was the ground anyway.

I saw him clapping his hands: Little brother, let me tell you, this stone is different from other stones. When it shakes, there will be a gurgling sound inside.

I guessed that there must be water in here, and a bottle is not half a bottle.

Tiger Han stretched out his slap and slapped Han Leizi's head vigorously: I think you are the one who is dissatisfied with a bottle and smashed my house into a hole!

After he finished speaking, he rubbed his palm against his trousers with disgust, as if he was afraid of getting ringworm on his hands.

And Liu Qingshan didn't pay attention to them. At this moment, he was picking up the stone and shaking it gently back and forth.

Sure enough, there was a gurgling sound inside the stone.

Liu Qingshan couldn't help but be overjoyed: This is water bile agate, which is more precious than ordinary agate.

Hearing what he said, Han Leizi immediately became excited: Little brother, how much is that worth, can you exchange for a Great Unity?

This requirement is a bit too low, even the worst water bladder agate is more than this price.

However, Liu Qingshan is not a professional jade researcher, he just learned some fur from Master Lu.

What happened to this water bile agate depends on the texture and color inside, so he couldn't draw conclusions.

This kind of agate, as long as it has water in it, is relatively rare.

This kind of agate often needs to be carefully conceived by the carver to highlight the water in the agate.

For example, the carved old birthday star, where there is water, is placed in the longevity peach; or the sculpture of Maitreya Buddha, where there is a water gall, it is placed in the belly of Maitreya Buddha, etc.

Objects carved in this way are often ingenious and interesting.

This piece of water bile agate, Liu Qingshan was going to bring it back to Zhang Guizi and asked him to carve it into a big ornament.

After pondering for a while, Liu Qingshan had a calculation: This eldest brother...

Hey, you can call me a leper, everyone calls it that. Han Leizi scratched his head, making people a little afraid to look directly.

Okay, that leprosy brother, do you think this will work? I can't tell the value of your agate stone. I'll give you five hundred yuan first. If it's worth a lot, how about supplying it to you later?

Liu Qingshan didn't want to pick up bargains here either. With his current wealth, if he still played tricks on these ordinary people, he would be out of character.

Five hundred dollars!

Han Leizi jumped up suddenly, and his head almost hit the paper shed: Five hundred yuan is enough for me to marry a daughter-in-law!

Yes, this one is also a bachelor, and his ideals are similar to those of Zhang Ganzi.

Liu Qingshan asked Xiao Hao to pay for the money, and then said with a smile to Han Leizi:

Brother leprosy, don't worry, I suggest you take the money first, go to the hospital to get rid of tinea capitis, and only then will the girl be willing to marry you.

Han Huhu interjected next to him: Old errands in their thirties, where can I find a girl, it would be good to find a widow.

In, the widow is in too!

Han Leizi took the banknotes, and was so happy that his eyebrows ran over his eyes, he bowed vigorously to Liu Qingshan, and then ran out of the house in a hurry.

As a result, with a bang, the head slammed on the door frame, it must be buzzing.

Promising. Han Tiger scolded with a smile. Leap man, listen to Qingshan's, first go to treat the skin disease, wait for the agate in our village to sell, and worry about not being able to marry a wife.

Tiger Han was in a good mood, and he finally found a little bit of Wang Dafu's feeling: having money is good.

But it's only a little bit, after all, it's not guaranteed.

When everyone returned from Xiawa Village to Wangjiaweizi, the sky was dark, and Han Huhu also followed, and he also decided to go to the Jiapigou. Yes, according to his relatives, it was called an inspection, and he also went to inspect. .

The next day, Liu Qingshan and his party set off. There were so many people that they could not sit in the cab. Fortunately, Wang Dafu and Han Huhu were all well-dressed and sat in the car bucket.

After the truck ran for two hours, it stopped and let them go down for a while. It was a bumpy ride. After two days, they finally returned to Jiapigou.

When the big truck drove into the village, it happened to be noon, and a group of little kids gathered around first.

Liu Qingshan got out of the car and yelled at the little kids who were climbing on the car: It's not delicious, it's all stones. If you're not afraid of your teeth, you can eat it.

The little boys lifted the tarpaulin to see that it was really a stone, and they were not disappointed.

I don't have anything to eat, but I have fun. Liu Qingshan took a canvas bag from the car and threw it on the ground.

Er Zizi opened the zipper and looked at it, and suddenly cheered: Bullet casings!

The bag is full of Huang Cancan's bullet casings, which is the favorite of the little ones, so you and I divide them one by one.

This is what Liu Qingshan asked for the children from the border guards. He also came here when he was a child, and of course he knows the children's preferences best.

The adults also came over, Zhang Pang folded his sleeves, and asked with a smile: Qingshan, pulling so many stones, are you planning to build a house?

Liu Qingshan also blinked: building a house with jade, wouldn't that catch up with the golden house of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?

Da Zhangluo slapped his thigh vigorously: Qingshan, when you build a house, you are not going to marry a wife. Don't worry, Uncle will give you a good deal.

Yes, I just thought of the golden house, and I used it. The golden house is hidden, so let's come to the jade house.

Qingshan should also marry a daughter-in-law. Those who are as big, the big family is about to give birth to a baby, and Erbiao is about to get married, so Qingshan is left.

Zhang Dashuai also joined in, and everyone was very concerned about Liu Qingshan's marriage, as if it were a real thing.

When Liu Qingshan saw Wang Dafu and the others in the car, they all got down and were moving their legs and feet, so he hurriedly introduced them to everyone.

After the introduction, Han Tiger looked at both sides of the road, and was a little puzzled: This Jiapigou is similar to our Xiawa Village, and it is also a grass house?

At this time, a shout suddenly came from the car bucket: Jade, where did you get so much jade from Qingshan!

It was Zhang Bizi who came home from vacation for the New Year. He was squatting in the car with excitement on his face, holding a fist-sized white jade in his hand, and muttering in his mouth:

It's a bit like Hetian jade, but it seems a bit wrong, the color is whiter, but not so warm, strange, strange...

For those who learn to carve, the first step is to learn to identify the material, so Zhang Yuzi definitely surpasses Liu Qingshan in terms of identifying jade.

Second brother, you come down first, I still have good things here. Liu Qingshan waved Zhang Handie down.

Then he took out a few pieces of agate carvings from the cab.

The quality of this agate is good. Zhang Kuizi praised in his mouth, and then suddenly became irritable, his quiet face instantly flushed red:

This sculptor is so bad, it's a waste of good things. Who the hell did it?

Seeing that what he was holding in his hand was his own old birthday star, Han Tiger said in his mouth, Yes, it's me...

As a result, Zhang Guizi suddenly rushed in front of him and shook the old birthday star in his hand towards him:

If you don't have that ability, don't use a knife easily. Good things will be ruined for you. It could have sold for a thousand, but now it is not even worth five hundred!

What the heck, this item is worth five hundred yuan!

Tiger Han's eyes were also wide-eyed. As for Zhang Ganzi's reprimand, he didn't even think about it.

When Liu Qingshan saw Zhang Guizi's heart-wrenching posture, he hurriedly took the water gall agate from the car: Second brother, you should study this.

Only then did Zhang Guizi squat down on the ground angrily and check the agate: The texture is slightly worse than those objects, but it's big enough and the value is about the same.

Second brother, hold it up and shake it again. Liu Qingshan now has a bottom line.

Shaking what? Although Zhang Guizi was a little puzzled, he still picked up the stone obediently, and then there was a gurgling sound.

Ah, water gall agate!

As soon as Zhang Bizi's arm trembled, the stone one size smaller than the volleyball fell down, and underneath was Zhang Bizi's feet.

If this is smashed, it is estimated that several bones will be broken.

A foot was suddenly stretched out beside him, and he supported the stone with his face. He unloaded the force down, and picked it up again, and the stone was held in Liu Qingshan's arms again.

Fortunately, if you break the water bladder inside, you'll spoil things. Zhang Guizi didn't think about his own feet at all.

Tiger Han blinked twice: What would happen if this person saw Han Leizi throw a stone directly on the ground of my house?

However, Tiger Han admired the young man who could carve a little, and he was so obsessed.

And generally such people, they usually excel in their field of expertise.

When Liu Qingshan saw Zhang Guizi this time, he also clearly felt the change in the other party.

Mainly in terms of temperament, Zhang Guizi became more confident.

This kind of self-confidence has been felt by Liu Qingshan in some later successful people.

In his opinion, the younger generation of Jiapigou should be like this. Only in this way can Jiapigou be stronger from generation to generation.

Zhang Guizi checked the water gall agate over and over again, and said in his mouth:

You have to be careful when you look back, wipe the outer skin off, look at the size and position of the water tank inside, and then think about what to carve into. If you break the water tank inside, it will be worthless.

If this thing is carved, it will be worth at least tens of thousands of dollars. If there is more courage in it, the value can be even higher.

How many tens of thousands?

Tiger Han shook his body and quickly put his hands on Wang Dafu's shoulders. He was really afraid that he couldn't withstand such a large amount and was directly knocked unconscious, which would be a shame.

And Wang Dafu patted him on the shoulder: My family, there is hope for you in Xiawa Village this time.

Tiger Han nodded vigorously, and suddenly felt a burst of heat in his heart.

He looked towards Liu Qingshan: This is really a little God of Wealth!
