Liu Qingshan was stunned. He never expected that the method of judgment was so simple.
And those tea seas have been carefully ground through dozens of processes, and the direction of the root veins in the stone can still be judged without using a magnifying glass. It may only be possible to see it with decades of research experience.
So he couldn't help but laugh: "So it's that simple? I thought it was one of our insiders who leaked the news!"
Sun Qishang's face changed: "The main reason is that Mr. Liu doesn't know much about our geology profession, especially the remote sensing technology, which can physically detect the entire earth. For us, the small jade tree is really not needed. Through scientific instruments, we can detect its growth trajectory and approximate age!"
"But you still can't analyze the aura part inside, and you don't even understand the huge difference between spirituality and ordinary matter, right?"
"I dare not hide it. We have indeed not had any specific contact with spiritual energy, but the theory in our industry is that it is the suspected evolution process of spiritual substances. At least so far, research in this area is still in a conceptual state! So after what Mr. Liu said, I I’m even more eager to get some of it for research!”
"Now that I've said it here, I might as well say it straight! How do you and your organization plan to exchange for these unique jade tree resources in the world? I'm not afraid of your old jokes. I am first and foremost a businessman. Then I am an artist, there is nothing I can do, I have nearly 10,000 people under my command, it is impossible to provide it for free!"
Although he tried his best to be tactful, the words he spoke were still closer to the tone of a business negotiation. Obviously, this seemingly unsparing directness made Sun Qishang's face appear obvious and slightly embarrassed after being uncomfortable.
However, Liu Qingshan immediately explained: "But at the same time, I also deeply remember that I am still a Chinese. Since the country has spoken to me personally, I must also show the overall view and the basic qualities of a public figure that a Chinese should have!" Let's do this. I suggest you go back and discuss it with relevant people first. I don't care about the country's financial wealth, but I need some institutional conveniences, such as the two properties here. I want to find a national-level property in this way. The qualifications of a cultural relics protection unit shouldn’t be high, right?”
After hearing what he said, Mr. Sun obviously relaxed a lot. As long as Liu Qingshan didn't move his jade to the jadeite side, everything else would be fine.
Although he also knew that the other party's conditions were not that simple, at least they agreed to the deal. This was not easy to win, but at least it was a good start.
Cultural relics protection units are divided into several levels, including national, provincial, municipal and county (district) levels.
The ten most famous courtyard houses within the Second Ring Road of Kyoto are only key cultural relics protection units at the municipal level.
Only historical sites or scenic spots such as the Forbidden City, Terracotta Warriors, Summer Palace, Dajue Temple, etc. belong to the national level.
Liu Qingshan's request for this highest level is obviously unrealistic, but this is the room for bargaining he has reserved. At least the provincial level qualification is his real goal.
The higher the level, the less likely it is to be demolished. There have been rumors that the adjacent housing area will be demolished for a long time, so he had to think of a way in advance to preserve these two yards.
Moreover, his request was not excessive, because these two courtyards were already at the deepest point in this area, and were backed by the flood discharge channel in Kyoto City that came out of the back door.
Therefore, even if it is really to be demolished, the location next to the flood discharge channel will not actually affect the actual urban planning.
In other words, these two courtyards are currently in a dilemma of whether they can be demolished or not. If there is a plaque of a provincial key cultural relics protection unit, it will be the best talisman.
Just imagine, if they can become the only two properties in this economic development zone in the future, it is self-evident how valuable they are.
Even if Liu Qingshan has no intention of exchanging them for money, the unique geographical location itself can be regarded as an out-of-print plot of land in the city, and its commercial value is truly unique.
Of course, his request will not be that simple. There are many national-level units eager to get these jade trees. He can definitely
You can then make other requests to those units separately.
But his main exchange does not involve money, it is just for some career conveniences. For example, even a small quota of overseas film sources can buy him the entire mainland box office.
Even if this requirement cannot be met, it can at least ensure that the approval process for his future works is as simple as possible. These are intangible commercial values and privileges that cannot be bought with money.
With his approval, Sun Qishang hurriedly went to report to his superiors. Liu Qingshan came to the jade tree covered by a pile of tarpaulins and stopped.
"Isn't it too early to move them here? There is construction going on in the yard right now. If you don't tell me if you have bumped it, aren't you afraid that someone will open it to check?"
Zhang Guoliang quickly replied: "It was Patriarch Bian's intention to move them out. I guess this was his intentional display! Our security guards are on duty 24 hours a day, and few people can move the huge boulder on top. The most fragmentary part of the stone is selected!"
Liu Qingshan nodded: "Only one-third of the ones here are probably the ones with the worst appearance!"
"Ancestor personally went to the warehouse to pick it out. During the transportation process, they specifically chose the day when they started work. The courtyard wall was only broken open that day. Zhang and his team worked here in three shifts to take care of it!"
"What's the reason you gave them?"
"It's not an excuse. I want to free up some space in the warehouse to build iron shelves. The ancestor said that a new teahouse will be built there in the future. I just happened to borrow the staff from this construction team!"
"Wouldn't that also reveal the parts that were not moved out?"
"We moved them to another house in advance. Besides, when the courtyard is renovated, they will have to move there!"
Liu Qingshan asked casually. He knew that Bian Lianxi must have his own reasons for doing this, and there would be many projects in the future. At least the kitchen, warehouse and dispensing room would be moved to that yard.
He and Zhang Guoliang stopped here, waiting for the arrival of others.
Because he had noticed that there were several cars parked at the back door, and the people who came out were mostly elderly and educated people.
Sure enough, within a few minutes, someone was looking this way. In the small courtyard where he was currently, the temporary gap could only be seen after entering the back door of Sanren House.
One of them, Liu Qingshan, also knew him as Le Zhan, a disciple of the deceased calligrapher Mr. Qi Gong. He had met this person once and had a detailed discussion with him.
Obviously, after learning the news that he had returned to Sanrenlu, various people immediately took action. This Mr. Le Zhan should be the help invited by a certain unit.
Liu Qingshan pretended to turn around suddenly and saw him, and quickly stepped forward to meet him: "Why did Mr. Le have time to come to my place? These guys are..."
After introductions, the visitors were two teams. On one side were several professors from the National University of Geosciences, and on the other side were several geological academicians from the Academy of Sciences.
Liu Qingshan did not dare to neglect these people. These people were different from Professor Sun of the Forbidden City. Whether they were professors or academicians, they were just collectively called scientists. In fact, it was not an exaggeration to call them scientists.
And they must all be leaders in this industry, because there are also medical staff among the people accompanying the team, and those who do not reach a certain level will not receive this kind of treatment.
One of them, President Pang Qiming, who was introduced as the president of the University of Geosciences, first impatiently asked: "Since Mr. Liu is here, can we take a look at the things under the tarp?"
Liu Qingshan turned his head in the direction of his finger, then turned around and smiled: "It doesn't mean much if you don't see it. They are all unpolished raw stones, and they are made like this!"
He put a small piece of jade that he had shown to Sun Qishang before in the palm of his hand. Principal Pang, who looked like he was about seventy years old, was very agile and hurriedly grabbed it.
Obviously, they didn't have much eyesight before this. At most, they had a close look at the few tea objects.
Bian Lianxi didn't even let them see any exquisitely carved objects, because before Principal Pang could put on his reading glasses, there were many things behind him.
Several people crowded forward, including some holding magnifying glasses.
Liu Qingshan laughed at their impatience, but didn't say anything, just stood aside and watched.
One of the old men held a delicate magnifying glass and kept hissing: "It is definitely a more refined jade tree, and the jade crystals are finer and highly transparent. It is a single mineral rock with a tight and delicate structure. It has a lot of characteristics." There are obvious traces of organic carbon infiltration!”
Another old man also said anxiously: "Silicified plant secondary xylem, the original material components have been replaced by silicon oxide, is the most common type of petrified wood. The polished surface has the luster of jade, but it is unusually transparent, and Any jade tree we have seen before is very different, or this kind of quality is more perfect, and the conditions for evolution are more advanced, because I actually feel that there is a trace of aura in it, I wonder if you have noticed it?"
Principal Pang nodded in agreement: "The original material components have indeed been completely silicified, and the inner texture retains the complete wooden structure and texture. Its hardness should reach level 8, which has perfectly surpassed the quality of fossilized trees. What's strange is, why It also has a far higher gloss than petrified wood? Isn’t this unscientific?”
The old man holding a magnifying glass said: "The ultimate expression of petrified wood is the radiant, crystal clear jade form, but this statement has only been reflected in books. I have been in this industry for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen it in real form. !」
Seeing these old men gathered tightly together, seemingly forgetting their own existence, Liu Qingshan had no choice but to interrupt them: "Will you elders take a look at its previous appearance first?"
