Zigang Pai is a unique jade tablet carving method created by Lu Zigang, a master of jade carving in the Ming Dynasty.
It is a rectangular, wide and solid sign.
On this sign, the calligraphy and painting patterns are expressed to their fullest beauty and vividness using superb jade carving techniques, using sun patterns on the ground, and bas-relief forms.
One painting depicts landscapes, flowers and birds, figures, and animals.
Although it was ground out with jade-carving tools, it still retains the artist's taste for pen and ink. The poems and prose carved on the other side are just like the pen and ink of a master.
Zhou Longsheng looked at him eagerly, not daring to speak, and asked Ye Qing to hand over the piece of jade to him for carving.
The last time he gambled away the pigeon eggs that his sister Gao Yeqing had bought, he asked him to grind them into treasures.
At that time, Ye Qing promised everything, but he hasn't come to him yet, as if he had forgotten about it.
Boss Qi made careful calculations and said seriously this time: "A perfect-shaped Zigang brand can be sold for about thirty yuan, and the remaining material can only be used to tie beads."
Ye Qing nodded slightly. Boss Qi was also a master in calculating materials.
Boss Qi then said with a smile: "At the price offered by the fat man, 20 million for a brand, I will also order one."
Ye Qing chuckled and said teasingly: "Brother Qi, wait for me here!"
Boss Qi laughed and said: "There is no way, Mo Cui, which symbolizes wealth and love, is rare to see in a hundred years. Once you encounter it, you must not let it go.
What's more, this piece of ink jade was solved by me myself, which is of great significance. Brother, you won’t even give me this little face! "
Ye Qing glanced at Zhou Longsheng.
Boss Qi understood it, put his arm around Zhou Longsheng's shoulders and said:
"It's not that my brother won't give you a chance. What Fatty and I want is the Zigang brand. This brand requires the jade carver to not only have superb carving skills, but also have a profound cultural heritage.
Brother, your skills are sufficient, but it’s a pity that you don’t have enough cultural background. The most important thing is that you don’t have the time yet. "
Boss Qi stops as soon as he clicks. Carving the Zigang brand is completely different from carving a bracelet.
Regardless of whether the bracelet is cut, carved or ground, it is all done by machine. Just pay attention to the final dimming.
Therefore, carving out a bracelet is the fastest.
The same is true for buckling egg noodles and buckling beads. Most of them are machine work, and the final light adjustment is enough.
However, even the simplest peace and quiet cards have simple ones with cloud patterns and Ganoderma lucidum patterns on the front, and more complicated ones with dragons and phoenixes carved on them.
The Zigang card is a hundred times more complex than the Ping An Ming card.
It also takes a hundred times more time.
It can be said that a master carver spends a lot of time on each piece of ink jade, from cutting it to designing the pattern and carving it into a vessel.
For thirty yuan, this master carver would not be able to leave home for a year.
However, the income is equally generous. To carve a Zigang tablet worth 20 million, the craftsmanship fee is at least 5 million.
Liu Fang had long known that Ye Qing had earned a lot of wealth by gambling on stones.
But after hearing what they said today, I realized how easy and comfortable it is to make money.
I didn't even do anything about a stone, but someone helped me peel it and cut it, and then they tried to make friends with it, fearing that he wouldn't sell it.
Twenty million for a brand, and I still owe him a favor.
This piece of 17 or 18 kilograms of ink green is worth 600 million.
Wang Youwei and Xiao Jingya were not as shocked as she was. Liu Fang had been managing a top-level hospital since she returned from studying medicine, and she had long been deaf to what was happening outside the window.
But the two of them still have some understanding of the jade market.
Listening to Boss Qi's words, you know that if you buy this Mo Cui brand, you will earn money. Even if you don't wear it, the value will increase quickly if you hide it in a safe...
Xiao Jingya's bright eyes were looking forward to it, and she glanced at Wang Youwei: "Sister A Fang, please take a step to speak!"
Liu Fang was also a girl with a bright mind. She knew that they were attracted to each other at a glance. She smiled disdainfully and said, "Even if you can afford it, do you dare to buy it?"
Xiao Jingya and Wang Youwei smiled at each other. They were both members of the system. Even if they were rich, they would never spend 20 million to buy a brand.
Xiao Jingya said lightly: "That's why I'm looking for Sister Liu Fang!"
"I still don't understand, Fatty Zhang. Boss Qi is Ye Qing's good friend. Even so, including favors, it still costs 20 million.
I don't have the dignity to ask Ye Qingbai to give it to you. "
Wang Youwei smiled and said: "How many of us are brave enough to ask for the things of the sixth master of the Ye family for nothing? Twenty million, or more."
Liu Fangming turned her eyes and understood what the two of them were thinking. This was no longer just business.
In other words, if they miss tonight, the two of them will become two parallel lines with Ye Qing, and it will be difficult for them to have any intersection.
However, a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier.
Who doesn’t want to make progress in a mixed system?
But if you want to make progress, you must not only have political achievements, but also have connections.
The Ye family in Kyoto straddles the military and political circles, and has the most ancient disciples in Yun Province.
If you want to make progress, clinging to the Ye family is the best choice.
Now that they have this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in front of them, it would be strange that they would give up.
Liu Fang frowned, looking embarrassed.
Her relationship with Ye Qing has not reached this level yet.
In other words, tonight, the reason why Ye Qing appeared in public as her boyfriend was.
I just want to get to know the person behind Yang Wei.
As a result, Zhang She was taken away by the police and lost an office building worth 300 million.
Xiao Jingya looked at her in surprise: "Sister Afang, we two are die-hard besties, even Wang Youwei grew up together.
Now the younger brothers and sisters have finally waited for the opportunity to make progress, but the older sister is sitting idly by! "
Liu Fang was a little embarrassed: "It's not that I don't want to help, but that I can't help."
Xiao Jingya was at a loss.
Liu Fang gritted her teeth and said: "He is not my boyfriend. I met him by chance today, so I dragged him to this party."
Xiao Jingya looked at her with hatred: "Sister A Fang, it's not me who is talking about you, but you don't look at how old you are, and you are still picky.
Ye Qing was born in the Ye family in Kyoto. He was a handsome young man, free and unrestrained.
The most important thing is that he doesn't behave like a dandy in the government office at all, and he is also proficient in stone gambling.
Such a good son-in-law would rather kill the wrong person than let him go. You'd better... make me mad. "
Liu Fang's pretty face turned red and white at what she said, and she complained wildly in her heart. I know damn well that I would rather kill the wrong person than let go, but she has a master, and she is not a...
Wang Youwei smiled and said: "Sister Afang, you are the oldest among us!"
Liu Fang immediately glared, held up Moxisha Laoyang Green, and said viciously: "Believe it or not, I will bury you with this piece of jade!"
"Sister Afang, don't worry!" Wang Youwei also knew that age was her inverse scale, and she would die if she touched her.
"Sister Afang is a fairy from Linfan. The sixth master of the Ye family may not be indifferent to you.
It's just that he is young and has a tender face. Even if he has admiration, he is embarrassed to express it. "
Liu Fang's eyes were unkind, she gritted her teeth and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
Wang Youwei said decisively: "Don't miss the opportunity and never come again. You must seize the opportunity no matter what. If you don't try it, how will you know whether it is suitable?"
