After Entering the Book, She Became Rich in the 1980s

Chapter 229 Decline

Hearing a knock on the door, Zhou Chenglei went out and opened the door.

The visitors are the two brothers Zhang Rong and Zeng Yuan.

Zeng Yuan took a look at the small farmhouse and found it hard to imagine that Zhou Chenglei still lived in such a mud brick house.

As soon as Zhang Rong saw Zhou Chenglei, he said: "Your two-meter-diameter jade clam museum declined your kindness. The curator said that there is already a one-meter-long exquisitely carved clam art in the museum, and there is no need for it." ”

At this time, cart clams can still be bought and sold normally. Although jade clam clams are rare, they are still considered organic gemstones that can often be seen.

Therefore, even if the 2-meter jade clam is very rare, it is not unseen. Museums usually collect cultural relics. If there is already one cultural relic, this original ecological one will naturally not be accepted.

Of course, if it is the kind of jade clam that has been carved and passed down from ancient times, it will be harvested regardless of its size.

Zhou Chenglei listened and said calmly: "Then forget it."

There is no museum in their city, only in the province, and Zhou Chenglei doesn't know anyone, but he knows Zhang Rong, who makes jewelry and collects antiques. Since they won't accept it, forget it.

He just thought it should be worth collecting.

Zeng Yuan looked at Zhou Chenglei with admiration in her eyes. How much is a two-meter jade clam worth? He is willing to donate, as expected of him!

Zhang Rong urged again: "The museum doesn't accept it, but I do. What about the jade clam? I think such a large jade clam is still valuable for collection. Many collectors should like to collect it, especially those who believe in Buddhism. ”

Because the jade clam is one of the legendary Seven Treasures of Buddhism, it is said to attract good luck and avoid evil, and to protect the house and ward off evil spirits.

"The Jade Tridacna is at my eldest brother's house. Just wait, I'll tell my lover and I'll take you to see it."

So Zhou Chenglei went in and told Jiang Xia that Zhang Rong and Zhang Rui were here, and that the museum would not accept them. Zhang Rong wanted to see the jade clam.

Jiang Xia was already full and immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks: "Wait for me, I'll get the camera to take pictures."

Father Zhou stopped eating when he heard about the meal: "I'll go there too!"

That big guy is so rare, so of course you have to take pictures!

Jiang Xia took the camera and walked to Zhou Chengxin's side.

***

Zhou Chengxin's family also just finished eating.

While Tian Caihua was washing the dishes, she looked at the two-meter-tall guy and muttered in distress: "Is your brain flooded? Donate such a large jade clam! It will be sold by the pound." , One yuan per pound is worth one or two thousand yuan, right? They can donate it to me!”

Recently, the family just ordered a new fishing boat, and the family's savings have been almost used up. Tian Caihua can't even bear to eat one more fish.

She still owed more than 3,000 yuan in balance, and she just wanted to save enough money as soon as possible, so she started to live frugally.

When she heard that Zhou Chenglei had decided to donate such a big treasure to the museum, she felt so distressed that her heart was bleeding!

She felt that if this was given to her, she would not have to worry about the final payment of the boat.

Zhou Chengxin was making a net for raising pearl oysters and ignored Tian Caihua's thoughts.

Ah Lei and Xiao Xia naturally have their reasons for doing this!

No one will push money out for no reason.

Zhou Chenglei and his group walked in at this time: "Brother, sister-in-law, I will bring someone to see the jade clam."

Zhou Chengxin quickly put down his work and stood up.

Zhou Chenglei introduced a few people, and after greeting each other, Zhang Rong went to look at the jade clam placed in the corner of the yard.

Jiang Xia didn't expect that the museum wouldn't accept it. Although it was different from the plot in the book, many things now were also different from the plot in the book.

Reality is reality, and books are books.

Since there are already more valuable ones in the museum, it is normal not to accept them. After all, the museum has limited space for displaying collections.

Jiangxia knew that there was a special jade clam museum in modern times, but that museum was only built more than thirty years later.

Nowadays, clams are not taken seriously, and the same goes for jade clams. Although this thing took a long time to form, there are many things in nature that take a long time to form. Oil and jade are also formed over a long time, but not every piece of jade can be put into a museum.

This is even more true for oil. It is estimated that many years from now, when oil is exhausted, things made from oil will also have the opportunity to enter museums.

If you don’t accept it, let Zhang Rong take it. His jewelry store is also state-owned.

But now the reform and privatization of state-owned enterprises has begun to occur.

There is an electric light bulb in the yard. Because sometimes it is necessary to kill fish overnight, a light is installed in the yard, but the light of this electric light bulb is obviously not enough.

Zhang Rong took a flashlight and shined it on it, and saw that under the light of the flashlight, the jade clam was crystal clear, smooth and flawless, and as warm as jadeite.

Zhang Rong looked at it carefully: "It's so beautiful! It's almost completely jade!"

Zhang Rui looked at it and said in surprise: "Fourth brother, what kind of luck do you have? You picked up such a big treasure, and you were even willing to donate it."

Zhou Chenglei glanced at Jiang Xia: "Your sister-in-law picked it up, not me."

Zhang Rui gave Jiang Xia a thumbs up: "Sister-in-law is really admirable!"

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Jiang Xia just smiled.

Zeng Yuan glanced at Jiang Xia, pursed her lips, and said nothing.

After Zhang Rong read it, he turned off the flashlight and said, "I'll have someone drive over tomorrow to transport it back. Now that it's dark and the roads are hard to walk, it's going to be bad for now, and the jeep won't be able to load it."

Zhou Chenglei responded: "Okay."

Tian Caihua listened for a long time, and when she saw that neither Zhou Chenglei nor Jiang Xia asked about the price, she couldn't help but ask, "How much can this big guy sell for?"

Zhang Rong: "It should be able to sell for more than 5,000 yuan."

Tian Caihua took a breath!

Five thousand yuan!

Which God of Wealth did Jiang Xia worship and pick up 5,000 yuan from a casual trip to the beach?

envious!

Jiang Xia thought that Tian Caihua's pearls had not been sold yet and said, "Sister-in-law, my pearls were sold to Brother Zhang. You can take them out and sell them to him now."

When Tian Caihua heard this, she immediately said, "I'll take it out right now!"

After saying this, she quickly ran back into the house and took out the pearl.

Tian Caihua's pearls were not as good as Jiang Xia's, but there was still a good one. After Zhang Rong saw it, he gave her a total of more than 600 yuan, which made her very happy.

Although it cannot be compared with Jiangxia's, six hundred is still a lot.

After seeing that it was a jade clam, several people returned to the old house.

Jiang Xia asked Zhou Chenglei to take out the two stones she fished from the sea and show them to Zhang Rong.

Zhang Rong was studying, and Zhang Rui called Zhou Chenglei to go out and talk.

After Zhang Rong took a flashlight and looked at it carefully, his expression was a little solemn: "I'll take your two stones back to have a look. The light is too dark now and I can't see clearly. I'll find a few more experts to take a look."

If he read it correctly, that would be great! It's just that he has little experience and is not sure.

Zhou Chenglei came in with a document bag and said directly, "Okay, take it back!"

There are always people in this world who deserve your trust, and Zhang Rong is such a person in Zhou Chenglei's heart.
