"I, Yun Xiaobao, am the owner of this teahouse. Can you please come and sit on the second floor?" The middle-aged man smiled kindly as soon as he came up, introduced himself, and then invited Let's go to the second floor.
"Master, what's on the second floor? Why do they ask us to go to the second floor?" I was a little puzzled, so I asked directly to my face. With Master by my side, I felt like I was not afraid of anything.
"There is a separate small tea room on the second floor, which is convenient for talking about things." Old Man Jiang said nonchalantly while chewing on the tobacco stick.
But Old Man Jiang didn't care, but some people did. Ma Dudu spoke: "Little Baoer, even if Brother Baochun is here, he can't do this to stop Hu, right? Who walks on this road who doesn't know Baochun?" Brother is the most disciplined person."
"Who is Brother Baochun?" I asked the master quietly from the side.
When I asked this question, the teahouse waiter immediately glared at me fiercely. Cao Er kept wiping his cold sweat, Ma Dudu showed a slightly amused smile, and Yun Xiaobao remained calm and smiled with a calm and gentle look.
As for me and Old Man Jiang, how can we be the ones who suffer the loss? The two immediately stared back in unison.
The guy couldn't resist and immediately coughed twice and turned his head away. Can he win us with his glare? joke! When did Master and I not stare at each other out of boredom? We have practiced!
"Haha, it's fun, it's fun. The Baochun brother Ma Ye calls is Yun Baochun, and he is my father." Yun Xiaobao saw it in a funny way, so he just laughed twice and answered my question.
I said oh and leaned on the table again. I always listen to old man Jiang talking about ancient times. I have seen a lot of the wisdom of the ancients. I also understand what old man Ma means. Doesn't it mean that his father talks about rules and reminds people of the past? Do my sons also have to follow the rules
Sure enough, Yun Xiaobao turned to Ma Dudu and said: "Master Ma, the most important thing for our Yun family to gain some reputation is a rule. How can we stop people from doing things like this? It's just that this master has great weapons. , it’s not convenient to talk downstairs, so I invited you to go upstairs. Master Ma, everyone can do business, do you think this is worthwhile? If this master is willing, he can give you his things first. , you have to recognize the item and give it a suitable price. If the master is satisfied, our Yun family will not interfere. If you can't negotiate, our Yun family happens to know the goods, then... "
That Ma Dudu was also an extremely conceited person. He immediately slapped the table and said, "Okay, let's do it like this!"
At this time, Old Man Jiang laughed twice and said: "You two are interesting, you just decided the business for me without me saying anything, okay... you two may not be able to see this thing about me." It’s up to you, but you can give it a try.”
After saying that, he took my hand and walked towards the second floor first.
These words were not unreasonable, but Yun Xiaobao and Ma Dudu couldn't figure out the backgrounds of me and Old Man Jiang, and they were both cunning and cunning people. They actually smiled, endured it, and followed them up to the second floor. .
When we arrived on the second floor, there were indeed small tea rooms. Yun Xiaobao ordered the quietest one to be opened and took everyone in to sit down.
The most anxious person among them is Cao Er. Where would he get the chance to go up to the second floor to see him on weekdays? He heard that every transaction here was amazing. Not only did he go to the second floor today, but he was also surrounded by a group of big shots. He felt that he had burned a lot of incense and was able to come and experience it, but how could he not feel uneasy.
Within three minutes of sitting down, a tea waiter brought a pot of hot tea and several cups. As the host, Yun Xiaobao naturally poured tea for everyone himself and introduced: "It's not really good tea. It’s just ordinary Mingqian tea, and everyone will just drink it.”
Yun Xiaobao poured the tea himself, and drank the rare Mingqian tea. Cao Er was already frightened, and Ma Dudu's expression became much calmer. It was just me and my master, looking very casual. .
When the master heard that it was Mingqian Tea, he said: "It's just average."
After I took a sip, I said, "Master, our tea is not as delicious."
Ren Yun Xiaobao is so well-educated. After hearing the words of our master and apprentice, he felt his face twitching uncontrollably. It is estimated that these two masters and apprentices are either the kind of people who are rough and unskilled, or they have extremely profound backgrounds. .
Yun Xiaobao may be stubborn and think that because I am a child who doesn’t understand tea, I think my big bowl of catechu tastes good.
After Ma Dudu took a sip of tea, he couldn't hold himself back any longer. He looked like he was about to speak in a hurry, but Old Man Jiang laughed "hehe" and said, "You can look at things as you like. But first, let's talk." I said it before, if you don’t recognize me, just ask Yun Baochun to come.”
"Brother Baochun doesn't need to take action in this matter, right?"
"There shouldn't be any need to invite my father."
Ma Dudu and Yun Xiaobao said almost in unison. Old Man Jiang didn't say anything. He stretched out his hand and took out the jade from his arms, and threw it on the table casually.
At the same time that Old Man Jiang threw the jade, the three pairs of eyes on the table began to stare at the jade. In less than a minute, the faces of these three people became strange, especially Cao Er. The mouth almost opened into an 'o' shape, which was a sign of extreme surprise.
Cao Er didn't dare to talk nonsense, but Ma Dudu grabbed the jade and looked at it over and over for a long time. The more he looked at it, the weirder his face became. Finally, he was slightly angry. He looked at Old Man Jiang and said: "The quality of this jade is still good. Yes, but it’s not particularly outstanding. It’s mutton-fat white jade. It’s a new material, no more than fifty years old, and it’s not an ancient jade. The only bright spot is that the water color is surprisingly good. It’s probably the result of experts who know how to play with jade. After playing with it, it makes jade so gentle. But...but..."
Old Man Jiang looked at him with a smile and said, "Don't be in vain, I carved this thing."
Indeed, I was a little embarrassed when he said this. The jade was shaped like a jade plaque, which was still irregular. On one side was a crooked word "福", and on the other side... was engraved a figure. The fat doll with extremely bad proportions looks like a simple drawing. Wasn’t the fat doll originally holding a fish? The fat doll on this jade plaque is holding a potato-shaped object. I asked Master what it was. He said he wanted to carve a fish, but he couldn't do the detailed work, so he carved an outline, roughly like this.
"Spoiling jade, you're just ruining jade... No wonder you said I can't see fame." Ma Dudu put the jade on the table and groaned angrily. It seems that this person is not all about money. He is indeed a person who loves jade. It is probably because Old Man Jiang acted too mysteriously just now and he couldn't figure out the background, so he didn't have an attack on the spot.
Actually, I said to myself, if you knew that my master wanted to eat hot pot, you would carve the word "hot pot" on the jade, and what kind of mutton-boiled meat was engraved on the jade, wouldn't you go crazy? This piece of jade is decorated with an auspicious character "福", right
Yun Xiaobao's eyes were full of doubts, but he still reached out and picked up the piece of jade on the table and asked, "Have you seen it, Master Ma?"
"Nonsense, you still need to ask about something that is obvious?" After Ma Dudu finished speaking, he snorted.
After receiving Ma Dudu's affirmation, Yun Xiaobao looked at the jade carefully. Of course, he couldn't help but frown when he saw the dramatic carvings from my master. This look was even more impressive to him than Ma Dudu. It took a lot longer.
Ten minutes later, he gently put down the piece of jade and said with some confusion: "It is obviously an ordinary white jade, but it feels full of aura. The polish makes people put it down. I don't know which jade company it is from." Jade made by a master who plays with jade. But these things are ethereal. After all, jade is priceless. An ordinary piece of jade can be played with by a master who plays with jade, and it can be played with gentleness and pleasantness. So this piece of jade is In his heart, it is a priceless thing. Sir, do you want to tell us this? Are you a master at playing with jade? "
"What did I think you could see? It turns out that your opinion is not the same as mine." Ma Dudu said angrily again.
However, Old Man Jiang refused and said, "You're just kidding, you said those jade are all raised, you don't understand, let Yun Baochun come."
These words were not polite. After seeing the jade, Yun Xiaobao was very confused whether the old man was pretending to be mysterious and came here to cause trouble, but he still suppressed his temper and said: "This jade is basically like this. I myself Don’t you think you’re mistaken? There’s no need to invite my father to come, right? If this man is short of travel expenses or something, I’m bound to help him. After all, who in the world doesn’t have difficulties?”
"Oh, no wonder you don't know the goods. I'm willing to sell this piece of jade. I'm afraid that if your grandfather Yun Kuai is still alive, he will rush for it. You go and invite your father to come. Just say a word, and Lao Li's disciples will come to your door. "Old Man Jiang said angrily.
Yun Xiaobao's face suddenly changed. His father's name was very famous, but in this generation, he had just experienced ten years of unstable life. Not many people knew about his deceased grandfather, the Yun family Jin. Not to mention the nickname Crazy Cloud!
Crazy cloud, crazy love! Moreover, my grandfather’s identity in his early years is not easy to put on the table. In Kawachi’s words, he was a businessman engaged in Taihe business. What is that? If you go down to the fields to find things and sell them, you are considered a tomb robber.
Yun Xiaobao pondered for a long time, and his expression changed again and again. Finally he called someone in and said: "Go, go to the house and call the old man over, and tell me that he knows my grandfather and can call me." Grandpa’s nickname is given to someone who claims to be Lao Li’s apprentice.”
The tea boy agreed and left quickly. For a while, the atmosphere in the tea room was a bit dull.
Yun Xiaobao turned to look at Ma Dudu: "Aren't you leaving yet? Didn't you see this jade?"
"I won't leave. It's rare that Brother Baochun wants to take action. I must see it until the end."
Yun Xiaobao was depressed for a moment and fell silent, just lowering his head to drink tea. Less than half an hour later, the door of the tea room was knocked open, and an old man almost rushed in and yelled: "Who is Lao Li's apprentice? "
