Chapter 466 Heart-to-Heart Talk
It was late in the afternoon when Mr. Yan and Mr. Le Xiao arrived in Ying County. The sunset in the western sky spread out in layers, burning like a fire, as beautiful as a dream.
In late March in the southern border city of Y, kapok blossoms and peaches and plums bloom. It is the season when spring rivers are warm and flowers are about to bloom. It is also the best spring travel season of the year. Groups of people Tourist groups are constantly coming and going, making cities and ancient villages crowded with pedestrians, and the quiet border towns like paradise becoming lively.
During the peak travel season, the number of beds in hotels has also increased, and they are very popular. Fortunately, Yingxian County is not the most famous scenic spot, and regular hotels are expensive, so there are still a small number of beds. Classmates Le Xiao and Yan Shao Grab two beds in a regular hotel, pack your luggage, wash up, go shopping, and find a place to have dinner.
After more than half a month, they came to Yingxian County again. They knew the roads well as they returned to their old place. They walked around the pedestrian street, had a meal in a restaurant and then went straight to the Paishi Street Night Market.
The Stone Gambling Street Night Market in March is more lively than February. There are crowds of people everywhere. The largest number of tourists come to experience the fun of stone gambling. Most of them only spend a few thousand. I gamble on stone just to try the excitement of "one size fits all".
There are many tourists, and the business of the vendors is also very good.
Young Master Yan was protecting a little loli who was as slippery as a loach as she squeezed in the crowd. There was a large flow of people and it was bustling with people. Sometimes people were close to each other, and bumps were inevitable. The little loli and others There were inevitably physical collisions, so his face was black the entire time.
After visiting the night market, the little loli didn’t buy any stones. In the end, she went to the night snack stall to pack a big bag of late night snacks and ate them to her heart’s content. The incomprehensible look on her face also bothered Young Master Yan. The depression dissipated a lot.
After a night of recuperating in the hotel, before dawn the next day, Mr. Le Xiao went to the morning market under the protection of free bodyguards. This success once again made Mr. Yan want to take someone back to Beijing directly.
Le Yun didn’t know what Handsome Yan was thinking. She happily searched for treasures everywhere. Although she didn’t buy anything, she had a general idea. There were no particularly eye-catching top-quality stones on the market. , she paid special attention to several shops. Most of the woolen materials in the shops were the ones she had seen last time, which also meant that there had not been a large and frequent flow of woolen materials recently.
She rushed to the morning market, but her hands were still empty, and then went to the wool trading market. This was her second time here, and she also knew which market had more dark materials and which market had more semi-clear materials. Which marketer has more stalls?
She visited two wool trading markets in one morning, but Le Xiao’s classmate never gambled on materials. It wasn’t that she didn’t have high-quality wool, but it was just inferior to the materials she gambled on last time. A trace, some are half-brightmaterial, so I don’t bet.
In the afternoon, she arrived at the wool trading market, which was the latest in the city. After visiting half of the market, she finally found the target and decided to take action. What she found was a piece of black and gray wool, with the original stone shell peeling off the sand. , the color is gray, and the whole is relatively smooth. To be honest, the rough stone looks very much like an ordinary stone by the river, without any characteristics.
The weight of the wool material is 63.8 kilograms, and the characteristics of the material are consistent with the characteristics of the most famous rough stone of Moshi Shachangkou in Myanmar.
However, Le Yun really wanted to ask the jade vendor: Are you sure that the wool in your hand is really the rough stone from Mosisha, Myanmar?
If he said it was from the Moxi battlefield, she would say "haha"!
It is true that she is not an expert on jade, nor is she an experienced stone digger. She cannot judge the type and color of the original stone based on its appearance. However, the results of her analysis based on the composition of the stone prove that That stone was not a rough jade stone. It was probably a piece of waste stone that someone got from a certain source. Because its appearance was very similar to the characteristics of the rough stone produced at Moxi battlefield in a certain period, it was passed off as a fake. It was purely a counterfeit.
A stone can successfully hide from jade connoisseurs and appear on the market as jadeite raw stone with a serious label. She wants to say: Is this really good for you?
Myanmar has regulations that only jadeite rough stones that have passed the public bidding process can be exported, otherwise they will be regarded as smuggling. Of course, there are also some businessmen with channels who will bring rough jadeite stones across the border to China without going through the public bidding process. Border town.
Mr. Le Xiao doesn’t mind if there are smuggled rough stones in the market, but this kind of... well, the rough stones that are obviously Li Daitaojiang have appeared. I can only say that this world is too crazy, and it’s also true. Bullying the inexperienced novice who doesn't understand jade.
As a novice with no professional experience, she said that in order to prevent more people from being deceived, she reluctantly bought the counterfeit product as a good deed.
The counterfeit jadeite wool weighed more than 100 kilograms, and the asking price was 400 yuan per kilogram. Leyun put on a round face and continued to act like a newbie who didn’t understand jadeite. She happily dragged the boss to a corner to negotiate the price. , the price was reduced from 400 yuan to 250 yuan per catty, and the transaction price was 31,900 yuan.
The stone weighs more than a hundred kilograms. It is not particularly domineering in size, but its weight is real. When the little loli paid, Yan Xing walked over and leaned over to pick up the stone as if it were a baby. As relaxed as an ostrich's egg, he left the shop with pride as a group of people looked at him like Popeye.
Based on intuition, he really didn’t like it, but the little loli liked it. Of course he didn’t say anything. Fortunately, it was not expensive. More than 100 kilograms of wool only cost more than 30,000 yuan. Compared with those A dozen kilograms of rough stone costs hundreds of thousands, which is considered a super bargain.
Youdao is cheap but not good., the merchant sells it so cheaply, I guess everyone knows that it can’t produce good materials, so it’s okay to sell it cheaply and make a profit.
When he was far away from the shop, he asked quietly: "Little Lolita, are you sure it won't collapse?"
"I don't know, gambling is just a stone. Let’s bet, let’s finish the bet.” Le Yun held her little hands behind her back, took a small step, and looked around leisurely.
"!" Whether Yan Xingyun can make a move, or if he can, he will definitely slap the little loli on the head. He is betting such a big amount without knowing the exact number. Is this really a joke?
"It's very heavy." He couldn't pat the little loli's little head, so he had to sing bitterly.
“Handsome Yan, the stone is very heavy and it’s tiring to carry. That’s all right. You can help me take the stone back to the hotel, and I’ll go shopping again. When we get back later, we’ll go to eat and visit the night market. "
"I...Okay, I'll send the stone back first." Yan Xing felt like he was shooting himself in the foot. What he wanted to say was that the stone was a bit heavy. We can send it back to relieve it. Or store it?
In the end, the little loli asked him to be sent back to the hotel directly. He was helpless and had to cooperate honestly. He was the one who said it was serious, and the price for his mouth would be to be kicked back.
Although he felt a little unhappy, Yan Xing did not hesitate, gave the backpack to the little Lolita, and returned to the hotel with the stone in his arms. After all, it was really nice to walk around with a piece of extra wool. Very noticeable.
It was a bit far from the hotel, so he took a taxi back. The driver looked at the guest's joyful expression holding a piece of jade wool, and kept smiling, very cheerfully.
When Mr. Yan returned to the hotel and entered the reception hall, he was once again greeted by the receptionist and security guard. He silently carried the stone upstairs and did not go to the little Lolita. In order not to let others From the mobile phone signal to check their whereabouts, neither he nor the little Loli turned on their mobile phones. It would be troublesome for him to find the little guy, so he might as well sit back and wait for someone to come back.
Send handsome guy Yan off, because he has visited several places in the market where the aura light and jadeite light are the richest and most beautiful, and he can’t find good materials in the remaining places, so Le Yun immediately took a taxi to move the place. When you go to another trading market to visit the wool section, you still need to look at the overall situation first, and aim at the place with the strongest aura as the direction forward.
As I walked around, I couldn’t help but feel a bit resentful in my heart. Why are there so many plain and half-made ingredients with such strong aura?
Many of the aniseed materials in the wool section are cut with one knife. Some of them are really good in texture and have a positive aura. However, because they are cut, the price is also greatly increased, much higher than that of dark materials. .
The purpose of her stone bet is to pick the best stones and move them into space, and to bet on secret materials. No one knows whether the rough stones are treasures or flakes, so she secretly finds a few pieces of waste stones and packages them into raw jade stones. No one knows, if it is a clear material or a semi-clear material, where will the price be?A large sum of money is not worthy of the number and really cannot withstand scrutiny.
Therefore, whenever I see whether the source of the strong spiritual energy is the clear material or the semi-clear material, my heart bleeds. I endure the strong reluctance, move my legs and leave silently, often to the next place. The place was like that, and the blow was really heavy-handed.
After suffering countless blows, when her heart was about to be broken, she finally found a jadeite stone with pure spiritual energy at a mobile dealer's stall. It was not big, only a little over 19 kilograms, and it was still a piece of ink. Cui, the kind of black that is as dark as ink. Judging from the luster of the original stone and the concentration of the spiritual light, it is inferred that it is a glass type of ink jade. Although it is not the Laokeng glass type, that kind of texture is really rare.
The price of the raw stone is 70,000 yuan, which is more than 3,600 yuan per kilogram based on weight. The shell of the raw stone has the characteristics of wood, presumably because of the obvious appearance of the shell, so the price is high.
A stone weighing more than 10 kilograms weighs 70,000 yuan. Compared with the stone that weighs more than 100 kilograms and only costs more than 30,000 yuan, it is nine-tenths lighter, but the price is doubled. Not to mention that the jade industry is so magical.
In line with the principle that good stones must be snatched, Le Yun took out the stone and waited patiently for the people who were looking at the stone to leave before negotiating with the boss. After some haggling, she settled for 55,000. After a deal worth a thousand dollars, I bought the stone, stuffed it into my backpack and carried it away. When no one was paying attention, I ran to the bathroom. I threw the stone back into space when no one was around at the corner, and then I actually wandered into the bathroom. , went to other places for a half-circle, and then wandered back to the woolen area.
After shopping around the wool trading market, the piece she bought was the one she liked the most. In order not to make handsome Yan Yan suspicious, she bought a piece of green jade that she liked, and returned to the hotel with satisfaction. She stopped by on the way. Go to the mall and buy a foldable aluminum alloy trolley portable luggage trolley.
Mr. Yan sat waiting for the little Lolita in the hotel. She didn’t return home until the evening. He could only express his grievances with his resentful eyes. Of course, the little Lolita dragged him along with a smile. When he went to look for food, he immediately turned into a coward without any complaints.
The two of them went shopping without any psychological pressure, ate, ate snacks, went to the night market, and ate late-night snacks. They had a great time shopping and eating happily. After a day of fun, the next day Check out of Pentium City early in the morning.
Teng City is also a jade distribution center and the most famous tourist destination. It has vast volcanic national parks, large tracts of wetlands, and countless heroes who have sacrificed their precious lives for the cause of national freedom. The National Memorial Cemetery, their resting place, has a long history and unique scenery.
It was only after eight o'clock when Le Xiaoxiao and handsome boy Yan arrived in the city. Citizens began to walk around in the streets at a slow pace, but tourists were already rushing here and there as if rushing to a scene, everywhere. Visible figure.
Go to the booked hotel to check in, simply wash your hands, and then the two of you go out., walked to the street, Yan Xing found that the little loli next to him had a melancholy expression. He was startled and gently rubbed her little head: "Little loli, what's wrong? I can't figure out where to go first. Is it right? ?”
“No, I want to... go to the National Memorial Cemetery, will you go?” Le Yun lowered her head, with a sadness that only she could understand in her eyes.
For the first time, the little Loli didn't protest against him touching her head. Yan Xing lowered his eyes and heard her sighing whisper. His heart felt sour and his eyes were burning. Little Loli On the return trip, we abandoned the route to Ruili and took Tengshi back to Beijing. The purpose should be to pay homage to the National Memorial Cemetery.
Patriotism and support for the army have never been spoken words. Little Loli never said how patriotic she was or how much she respected the soldiers, but her actions always put the interests of the country and the safety of the soldiers first, such as , never showed mercy to spies, and she never refused when he asked her to perform surgery on soldiers.
"...Let's go." He held back the warmth in his heart, gently helped her straighten her hair that was messed up by him, and took the initiative to invite her to go.
Le Yun hummed and followed handsome guy Yan, first going to the flower shop to buy flowers.
Many people who travel to Tengshi will pay their respects to the cemetery. The flower shop has a constant supply of flowers suitable for worship, and the prices are extremely reasonable. Mr. Yan bought a huge bouquet of golden chrysanthemums, and Mr. Le Xiao bought a With three bundles in her arms, she could barely see the road and headed to the cemetery.
The National Memorial Cemetery is about one kilometer away from the city center. The cemetery covers a large area and has a memorial tower, martyrs' tomb, museum, etc. The pine, cypress and bamboo in the park are evergreen, and the cemetery gate is solemn and solemn.
When the taxi arrived and parked outside the cemetery, Le Yun and Yan Xing got off the car and walked, step by step, to the steps in front of the cemetery, climbing up the steps one by one. The words " The stone carvings tell people about the great achievements of the heroes and martyrs.
In March in the southern city of Y, spring blossoms, the sun shines brightly, and the sun shines on the cemetery, filling the heavy place with infinite hope and warmth.
Many tourists are visiting the cemetery to remember the martyrs.
Walking into the gate of the cemetery, the green pines, green cypresses and strong bamboos accompanying the loyal souls of the heroes were silent. It was a silent mourning and a silent confession of the martyrs’ loyalty to the country.
Le Yun walked slowly holding a huge bouquet, walked to the monument, presented three bouquets of flowers, paid tribute to the loyal souls, observed three minutes of silence, and turned around to go back.
Yan Xing presented a bouquet to the ancestors and accompanied the little Loli to pay tribute to the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the cause of national liberation and independence. When the little Loli stepped back and walked away, he hurriedly followed: "Little Loli, no Have you climbed the mountain?"
"I will pay homage to the Heroes' Tomb and the relics of the martyrs when I come next time." Le Yun raised her head slightly and walked towards the gate along the road.
The little loli is not as lively as usualPo, Yan Xing didn’t ask any more questions. He walked out of the cemetery gate onto the street, and with the sun shining down on him, he asked carefully: "Little Lolita, you presented three bouquets of flowers. Does it have any special meaning?"
"One bouquet is a bouquet of flowers that I dedicated to the heroes, and the other two bouquets are my feelings for the heroes on behalf of my great-great-grandfather and grandpa. My great-grandfather had his last words and requested that my grandpa go to Ynan Province to pay homage to that year during his lifetime. My grandfather did not fulfill my great-great-grandfather’s instructions before he passed away. He told me to go to the border town of Ynan Province to pay homage to the heroes when I had the opportunity."
Le Yun Low She nodded, she had never met her great-grandfather, but her grandfather often mentioned her great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather’s unfulfilled wish, she was here to fulfill the unfulfilled wishes of her grandfather and great-great-grandfather.
"Does Mr. Lejia have any special relationship with the fallen heroes?" Yan Xing became even more strange. The origin of Mr. Lejia was nowhere to be found. The Lejia seemed to have a special feeling for the soldiers. , are there any unknown stories?
"I don't know. My great-grandfather left something for my grandfather. My grandfather should know something about it."
"Your father... doesn't he know either? ?" Yan Xing's doubts deepened.
“My dad doesn’t know that the relics left by my great-grandfather are only passed down to the descendants who inherit the ancestral medical skills. My grandfather inherited his father’s will, so my grandfather has the right to see what the relics are when he becomes an adult. I My father is not a doctor, so he has no right to see the relics left by our ancestors. However, my father knows that my great-grandfather left some things, but he doesn’t know where they are hidden. My grandfather passed the relics to me before he died and repeatedly told me to at least wait. Relics left by seniors can only be left by those who are over sixteen years old."
Yan Xing looked sideways at the petite little girl: "I feel that the origin of your family is very mysterious."
"Well, that's what I thought too. I guess my great-grandfather must have had an unusual experience."
"..." Yan Xing was a little speechless, feeling that the little Lolita seemed particularly curious about her family. The relics left by the old man looked like he wanted the truth. What if her family's origins were mysterious or actually ordinary, would she go crazy?
He didn’t dare to speak out his guess. He was afraid that the little girl might think he was deliberately throwing cold water on him, but he also wanted to hear her true thoughts, so he asked, “What if your great-grandfather has a good background?” Da, what will you do?"
"Just do whatever you want."
"For example, recognize your ancestors and return to your clan?"
"What are you doing? Do I have to recognize my ancestors and return to my clan? If my great-great-grandfather’s surname was not LE, I don’t necessarily have to change it to my ancestral surname. I think the surname created by my great-great-grandfather is very good and has special meaning. It is also good to keep it. In this case, My great-grandfather is the ancestor of the Le surname."
"If there is nothing special about it, what will you do?"
"Just do what you have to do."
"!" Yan Xing felt that he could no longer chat happily. He was obviously having a good heart-to-heart conversation, so why didn't the little Lolita cooperate? , how come he has nothing to say when called like this? Unable to find the words to say, she choked out: "Where are we going now?"
"Go and gamble on stones. I want to accumulate more funds." Le Yun raised her head and dashed towards a car. Shi beckons, she has to work hard to make money, and when she reaches adulthood, if there is any will about the legacy of her ancestors, she will have enough ability and funds to fulfill the last wishes of her ancestors.
