Treasures

The woman's face was powdered like a Japanese geisha, and the three layers of thick swimming rings on her belly made people nauseous.

What kind of mentality did he have to come out wearing such a tight suit?

Sigh, this man was definitely treating me as a waiter; it seems like Song Yu's worries were justified.

Perhaps these people all knew that the old man liked jade, so they all offered up jade. The box containing the treasures shone with a golden light; they were all exquisite, but the items inside were unbearable to look at. They seemed complicated and beautiful, but in reality, they did not exude any spiritual energy.

The best one could barely be considered a type of glass, but looking at the green floating inside, it was incomparable to Huang Yingying's regal green glass.

Just then, Huang Yingying suddenly patted his shoulder from behind, then laughed, "It's time for our baby to go up on stage!"

Huang Yingying did not know where she ran off to, but after searching for a long time, she still did not see anyone. But right now, it was as though she suddenly jumped out from a rock, scaring Xue Yang stiff the moment she appeared.

However, it wasn't too late for him to come out. By this time, most of the other people's treasures had been presented, and the best items should naturally be placed at the finale.

And it was also at this time, before Huang Yingying could walk up to the top, there was another person walking up.

"Great Master, the things they have presented are not worth mentioning. If we're talking about tonight's best gift, we still have to look at the treasures I saw here."

The one who spoke was a middle-aged man who appeared to be around fifty years old and was 1.6 meters tall.

Although Xue Yang had never seen this person before, he still felt that this person looked a little familiar.

After thinking for a long time, he finally confirmed that he did not recognize this person. But Huang Yingying was directly snatched away by someone else, and said unhappily: "You see that person, right? That person is Hao Shuai's father; his name is Hao Ren, and he can be considered a rich person as well. He definitely came this time to request my grandfather to give them more business."

Hao Ren...

Xue Yang took a long time to savor it, and then said somewhat helplessly: "Why do I feel like their names have the feeling of thieves being caught."

He laughed out loud. Although his words sounded like he was ridiculing their family, thinking about it, it was actually true.

First of all, Hao Shuai was already that ugly. Furthermore, he was only 1.6 meters tall, yet his name was Hao Shuai. It sounded like he was very handsome.

And now he had even met his father. Although Xue Yang did not know how to judge a person's appearance, as long as he was a person, they would not think that this somewhat white-haired person was a good person with a single glance. However, his name was Hao Ren, how could he be a good person?

Hao Ren opened the gold box that held the treasure and started to brag.

"Master, take a look, the texture of our bangle, the luster of our bangle, we got them from Burma, they are the best regal green glass, even if you search the entire world for them, you will only find a few."

As Hao Ren was bragging, he peeked at the bracelet once, and the moment he peeked at it, he let out a sigh of relief.

This bracelet was really not bad. No matter if it was the workmanship or the materials, they were both pretty good.

But it was only good.

If it was before Xue Yang had entered the mysterious space, he would definitely have believed in Hao Ren's words. However, he, who had studied a few secret scriptures and had some knowledge in sculpting, was able to see through the clues in that item with a single glance.

If a material bracelet was not completely green and its green luster was not in place, it could not be called Emperor's Green. The one not far away was very green, but it might have been a little too in place.

The bracelet was shining with the same luster. Even under the illumination of the lamp, there was not the slightest bit of unevenness.

All of these were not enough for Xue Yang to see that it was a fake, because logically speaking, top-quality emperor green should be able to satisfy this kind of situation.

How could carving techniques reveal the essence of a piece of material? At this time, Xue Yang laughed and walked over.

At this moment, Old Master Huang was playing with the bracelet in his hand, seemingly unwilling to part with it.

Seeing this situation, Hao Ren added fuel to the fire: "I know Old Master you have a particularly cute and beautiful granddaughter, so I feel that it would be perfect if you could give this bracelet to your granddaughter. As the saying goes, a beauty with a beautiful jade."

Towards Hao Ren's eloquence, Xue Yang was a little speechless. He truly had the ability to flatter people and knew where the softest part of a person lay.

Just as the old man's smile grew wider, Xue Yang walked out of the crowd with much difficulty.

"Old Man, don't be too happy too early. Take a closer look, is this bracelet really King Lu?"

Towards this young man who had suddenly appeared, the rich men were all baffled. And judging from his clothes, this young man didn't seem like he belonged to this occasion.

The rich were just discussing where this wild child had come from.

"He should be a waiter, right?"

"No, I think he should be a cleaner. This is the Golden Dragon Hotel, and the attendants' standard of dressing here is more than ten streets away from his."

The words of these people immediately got a chorus of agreement.

While the crowd was in an uproar, Hao Ren took advantage of this momentum and loudly said a few words; his voice suppressing the crowd's discussion, "I say, where did you, this yellow-haired brat, come from? Everyone here has to be at least a multimillionaire, who isn't an expert at playing with jade artifacts, and there's no need for such a yellow-haired brat like you to say, if this thing is fake, I'll f * cking f * cking f * cked my way out of this hotel."

"May I ask how much you spent to buy this bracelet, Boss Hao?"

"I spent a lot of money to buy it. My sworn brother bought it directly from the largest jade shop in Myanmar. Who doesn't know that the jade produced in Myanmar has always been at the forefront of the world?"

Xue Yang quietly looked at him, as if he was someone who liked to brag from the very beginning and could not control the speed of his words at all.

With the attitude of a junior, Xue Yang humbly said, "What you say is very true. Myanmar has once produced many jade artifacts that have shocked the world, but this one definitely does not apply to you."

"You are f * cking bullsh * t. You are just an outsider. What do you know? Hurry up and kick this brat

 out."

Hao Ren quickly waved his hand, and a few security guards indeed walked over. Just as they were about to bring Xue Yang away, the old man waved his hands and said: "Wait, I really want to hear what this young man has to say."

Hearing the old man say this, Xue Yang first smiled and bowed towards the old man, then continued: "I am a sculptor of jade, and am more knowledgeable about jade than others. I am basically familiar with the famous emperor of Myanmar, Lu Lu, and I definitely do not have this piece."

When they heard the young man call himself a "sculptor," the surrounding people all scoffed. It was because they had some knowledge about jade, so they knew a little about this industry.

Even the youngest sculptor, Mr. Liu Bei, was sixty-eight years old.

Even if a master teacher were to nurture a sculpture, it would take at least a few decades for it to be able to slowly carve the essence of the knowledge into one's head.

It was just that no one knew that after Xue Yang had read the engraving, most of the carving techniques had been deeply engraved in his brain.

The first to speak up was still Hao Ren, "Look at the news; this is a brand-new jade bracelet. It's normal for there to be no news of it in the industry, just like the few sculptors in He Hai City.

Seeing that the situation was disadvantageous for Xue Yang, Huang Yingying wanted to carry his own mahogany box and say a few words to him, but Xue Yang smiled at her, signaling him not to worry.

Xue Yang bowed to the old man again and said, "Could you show me your jade bracelet?"

Upon hearing that he wanted to touch the jade bracelet, Hao Ren immediately flew into a rage: "You wish! I suspect that you came here to touch my jade bracelet; you must have some other motive. Old Master, please don't be fooled by him."

"Take it. You just need to be careful." The old man clearly had a good impression of Xue Yang, and the old man naturally had a special way of thinking that the old man saw things, so the old man didn't think that he had seen the wrong person.

Everyone present was also dumbfounded.

Everyone remained silent as they turned to look at Old Man Huang.

The old man also picked up the bracelet and carefully examined it. Seeing that his eyes were so clear, it meant that he wasn't dazzled by it yet.

After a long while, the old man finally confirmed, "I saw a very thin blue line. It was indeed inside the material. At first, I thought it was the shadow of the light from the carving, but I didn't expect it to be the blue line."

"You are right; this is also where the Carver's cleverness lies."

After listening to his explanation, Hao Ren took a few more steps forward. Old Man Huang, however, gestured for him to calm down.

Old Man Huang then said the words that Hao Ren wanted to say, "Even if you have the blue line, you can't shoot to death. This is the matter of the emperor's jade."

Old Master Huang displayed his impartial side in front of everyone. Although he clearly had a good impression of Xue Yang, when handling matters, the truth was the only standard.

"Young man, you have already observed him and proved that this jade bracelet does not have any coating on it. His being able to have such a well-proportioned green bracelet means that this bracelet is not ordinary, and logically speaking, it is impossible for there to be a blue line within the Emperor's Green Bracelet. But if this is the first piece, then this bracelet would be even more outstanding."

As the old man spoke, Xue Yang understood his meaning very clearly.

It was precisely because it was impossible to make a mistake that the mistake was so precious.

That's why someone would buy a wrong coin for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

"Chairman, you have neglected another expensive technology that originated from Myanmar. They are able to preserve relatively permeable dyes together with colorless or few colors. After a period of time, even extremely smooth jade will be infected with some colors. This bracelet must have some ulterior motives; it must have been infected more than ten years ago."

"Young man, if you say it like that, then it might be a fantasy. Even if someone really did spend ten years to cultivate this piece of fake jade, do you have any evidence?"

"If you were to look at the infected fake jade with your naked eye, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. You can easily find a piece of regal green glass's material and compare it with the real one, and you will find out what is dead color, and what is living color, and whether it is real or fake."

Regal green glass, where can we find it?

Everyone started to laugh at his ignorance again. This guy really thought that the regal green glass was just some cabbages on the side of the continent, so if they wanted it, they could get a basket of it.

Of course, Hao Ren's expectations were not so low. The regal green glass bracelet that he had spent a large sum of money to buy from overseas was actually called a fake. If that happened, the one who would ruin his life would not be him alone.

Hao Ren clearly had the intention to throw a few more rocks and add insult to injury.

However, a clear and melodious voice rang out from the crowd: "Grandfather, it just so happens that there are regal green glass's materials here. I just got someone to carve them."

Everyone was shocked, it was indeed worthy of being the Huang Family! The regal green glass is really like the existence of cabbages!

When Huang Yingying carefully took out the art piece of glass from the wooden box, everyone was completely dumbstruck.

Although this regal green glass was only the size of a palm, to the people present, it was already considered huge.

This was because this kind of material was already very rare. A glass type of jade was already very precious and could not even take 1% of the other jade.

The regal green glass that was surrounded by the floating green light was even more rare.

However, at this time, no one was actually praising its size, making everyone feel even more amazed.

It was this phoenix that spread its wings and soared into the sky.

Many people rubbed their eyes, only then were they able to see that the phoenix had not flown away. It was just that the carving technique was too amazing.

Just as everyone was immersed in the perfection of the carving technique, Xue Yang suddenly said something inopportune.

"Old Man, stop looking at it. Hurry up and compare the color of the two jades."

Old Man Huang seemed to have woken up from a dream. He was also astonished that he fell into this piece of Phoenix work.

Old Man Huang placed the bracelet along with the phoenix. Let alone looking from his point of view, even from everyone's point of view, the situation was clear to them.

What was the warmth of the jade? Even the color had a reserved look. This was precisely the color that Xue Yang had mentioned earlier.

Looking at the bracelet, although it was bright, it was only that much.

They were just afraid that they would have to compare the quality of the products and that the truth would be revealed.

Old Man Huang had always been a fair man. When Hao Ren wanted to slip away secretly, Old Man Huang smiled and reminded him: "Great Hao, what did you say just now?"

"Grandfather, he said that if his item is a fake, then he'll f * * k off himself." Huang Yingying reminded them from the side.

This conversation between grandfather and grandson immediately caused Hao Ren's expression to turn extremely ugly.

This was indeed said by him, and when he said it, his voice was quite loud, but the crowd clearly remembered it.

Hao Ren looked like he was about to eat shit. If he were to get out of here, then there would be no way for him to be a human being anymore, but if he didn't, then everyone present would be business partners. Especially Old Master Huang, who was also a support from Hao Ren's business source.

Hao Ren clenched his teeth, and was about to roll on the ground.

However, Old Master Huang stopped him, "I say, don't embarrass yourself here. Today is my birthday, after all. If people hear that I rolled around at this old man's banquet, wouldn't it be a joke?"

Regarding Hao Ren's reaction, Xue Yang did not make any statement. Since Old Master Huang had spoken, then …

Then he could only compromise in this aspect. Otherwise, according to his character, he wouldn't even be willing to roll around a circle less.

The old man laughed. After looking at the lifelike phoenix, he smiled and asked, "Yingying, the big gift you gave grandpa really gave me a fright. However, I'm afraid that

 you took the stone carved with phoenixes from my study, right?"

Huang Yingying immediately laughed: "Grandfather, you're so smart. I did a huge thing for you, so you don't have to worry about it. Don't blame me."

It was just that Xue Yang was rather impressed by this young lady's methods of handling matters.

At the front of the seat, Old Master Huang saw the guilty look on his granddaughter's face, and said with a smile: "Although this jade is precious, I don't care about it at all. Right now, the only one I care about is you, little girl."

"Stop, stop, stop. Grandpa, stop. Let's talk about the phoenix!" Hearing the old man mention his own matters again, Huang Yingying couldn't help but have a headache.

Huang Yingying boldly took out the jade and looked for someone to carve it, hoping to make her grandfather happy. Maybe she would just spare her, and not have to choose a husband from the group of playboys.

But who would have thought that the old man would mention it again.

At this moment, all of the youths present became excited.

Those who were able to attend this banquet all had some qualifications. They either had a deep family background or had quite a successful entrepreneurial experience.

The reason why so many young men could appear here was that it was not difficult to see through the old man's intentions.

When they heard that Huang Yingying was about to start looking for her in-laws, their blood was boiling.

There were even a few people who wanted to break up with their current girlfriends to compete for this new relationship as a single person.

There were different people who wanted to be a Prince Consort. Similarly, they all had their own ulterior motives, some coveted Huang Yingying's beauty, and some wanted to inherit the Huang Family's property.

Although these people had covered up quite a bit, this kind of cover made Huang Yingying feel even more disgusted.

The old man smiled in his heart: "This phoenix has already been styled in this place, so naturally, we cannot escape. But which craftsman are you looking for to actually be able to carve this phoenix alive? I have been obsessed with jade for so many years; I know the styles of the masters in the city very well..."
