    Seeing that the materials Du Zhaoyi chose were only a piece of jade the size of an adult's thumb, Tian Shangyi smiled with joy: "Du Zhaoyi, it seems that the master you hired is nothing more than this."

    "Hmph! Don't be too happy too early. I have finally solved the jade stone." Du Zhaoyi said, but in his heart he scolded Master Fang half to death. What a famous stone betting expert is nothing!

    Meng Zitao ignored them and asked the master to cut the stone according to the line he drew. Because the stone was not big, it didn't take long for the stone to be solved and the results were achieved.

    Because it was related to his own face, Tian Shangyi was also very nervous. He stared at the cut surface with his eyes rounded, and saw that after Master Shi took off the stone slices, a milky white color like milk was revealed on the cut surface, which was illuminated by the light.  Underneath, showing an elegant and clean luster.

    ¡°What a delicious jade meat, it¡¯s gone up!¡±

    "It's really good. Judging from the performance, even if it's not mutton-fat jade, it shouldn't be much different."

    "And it looks like the area is quite small, and there are no cracks or stiffness. It should have gone up a lot!"

    Seeing the performance of the cross section, some knowledgeable people around started talking about it. Speaking of it, this was the first time that such good jade material was found today, which made it even more noticeable.

    Tian Shangyi rubbed his eyes vigorously, as if in disbelief. He squatted down, stretched out his hand and touched the jade flesh on the cut surface. Then, he jumped up and down like crazy.

    "It's gone up, it's really gone upHaha, Du Zhaoyi, haven't you always looked down on me? My piece of jade is many times better than yours, why don't you look down on me again!"

    Du Zhaoyi sneered: "You are really naive. It's just a win or loss, and you think it's a lifetime achievement?"

    Tian Shangyi said in a mocking tone: "At least I won this time, Du Zhaoyi, give me the money!"

    Du Zhaoyi snorted coldly: "Huh! Money is indispensable for you, but Master Fang still has something to say."

    Master Fang was slightly startled, and then sighed, taking money from others to eliminate disasters for others, how could he ask for Du Zhaoyi's money if he didn't know the person well?  Now I can only push it up.

    "Mr. Meng, I think the quality of the materials here is too poor to reflect our level. I wonder if we can gamble again?"

    "Haha, if you regret it, just regret it. What reason can you find!" Zhong Jinxian sneered.

    Master Fang¡¯s old face also turned red, but because he didn¡¯t win against Meng Zitao, he could only be embarrassed.

    Meng Zitao was still thinking about how to get the mother-of-pearl on the bracelet worn by the master below. Now that the other party had just delivered it to his door, there was no reason to turn it away.

    "Master Fang, I don't know how you want to bet? How can you guarantee fairness?"

    "Within one day, choose a piece of Hetian jade that both parties agree is worth no more than 50,000 yuan and bet against it. If you lose the bet, I will avoid you when I see you in the future."

    Meng Zitao smiled and said, "No need, I just want the bracelet on your hand. If I lose, I will pay you one million."

    Master Fang looked at the bracelet in his hand and felt a little hesitant. He carefully selected Khotan topaz for this bracelet and then asked a famous artist to carve it. There are a total of eighteen beads, each with a rope pattern.  Ornaments, with a lavender tourmaline and an unknown bead I bought by chance in the middle.

    This bracelet has been with him for more than a year. Although in terms of quality, he doesn't think it can reach one million, it is his beloved thing. He really doesn't want to use it as a bet.  It would be okay if he won, but if he lost, it would be enough to make him feel distressed for a while.

    Just as Master Fang was hesitating, Du Zhaoyi kicked him lightly and said, "What kind of good thing can 50,000 yuan of material be? I think it needs at least 200,000 yuan to see it. In addition, such a bet is one million."  It¡¯s really too little, at least five million. If we think it¡¯s okay, we¡¯ll bet on it.¡±

    Meng Zitao said: "Five million Canadian bracelets are in the hands of the master. If you lose, I will give you something of equal value as compensation."

    "Okay, let's bet!" Before Master Fang could say anything, Du Zhaoyi made his decision, and Master Fang had no choice but to agree.

    "Now that we have chosen the ingredients, where shall we meet?" Meng Zitao asked.

    Du Zhaoyi said: "Tian Shangyi, you should recognize Wison Jewelry, right? We will meet there tomorrow."

    Meng Zitao spoke first and said, "Okay, just over there."

    Tian Shangyi said with a smile: "The matter is over, the bet just now should be given to me."

    "Huh! You are indispensable."

    &nb??  There are at least billions. Do you think I will save you for money?  "

    He said this without counting those rare treasures. Of course, the value of treasures like the Wanren Sword is impossible to estimate.

    Meng Zitao¡¯s words made Jiang Weijuan a little stunned.

    "Do you think I lied to you?"

    Meng Zitao chuckled: "But what's the point of me lying to you? Speaking of meaning, Miss Jiang, why have you lived for so many years?"

    "For what?" Jiang Weijuan pondered.

    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "I think that every day we live, we are realizing our own value, big or small. We should have our own life goals and life trajectories. Some people do it for survival.  Some people want to live, but the same thing is that they all want to live."

    "Our parents gave us life, but I don't think we have the right to end it ourselves. We are all unique and incomparable. Our existence has its meaning. We cannot feel useless because of setbacks. We must learn to respect ourselves.  . Miss Jiang, you may think that I am talking in a clich¨¦, but I still want to ask you to think about what you have been living for since you were a child, and whether you have made any efforts towards your goals."

    "Have I made any efforts?" Jiang Weijuan laughed miserably, and finally burst into tears: "I haven't, I haven't made any efforts! So do I deserve to be abandoned?"

    Meng Zitao persuaded: "Do you feel that you have been abandoned? Has your family abandoned you in these years? As the old saying goes, people live when they move, and trees die when they move. Miss Jiang, I think you should change your mind.  , whether it¡¯s for you, or for your relatives and friends. Think about it carefully, and don¡¯t wear horns in anything.¡±

    Jiang Weijuan burst into tears, and Meng Zitao signaled to the Jiang family not to persuade her for the time being and to let her vent first.

    After a while, Jiang Weijuan's crying became quieter, and Meng Zitao went up and touched her sleeping point. After all, she had just woken up, and crying for too long would be harmful to the body.

    "Dr. Meng, thank you so much. Without you, Xiaojuan wouldn't be able to wake up. This is a little thought from our family. Please accept it!"

    Back in the living room, Jiang Jingping took out the gift he had prepared and placed it in front of Meng Zitao.

    The gift prepared by the Jiang family was an ink ingot. Meng Zitao picked up the ink ingot and his hand sank slightly: "Hey, Cao Sugong's purple jade light ink?"

    ?? Cao Sugong, whose original name was Ruchang, was later renamed Shengchen, with the courtesy name Changyan, and the first alias: Ý£âÖ. Sugong was his nickname, which was later used as a store name.  He specializes in ink making. He initially borrowed the ink model and name of the famous artist Wu Shuda. In order to avoid the word "Xuan" from the Kangxi Emperor Xuan Ye, he changed the name of Wu Shuda's "Xuansu Zhai" to "Yisu Zhai".  And opened the store for business.  Because of its increasingly sophisticated ink quality and craftsmanship, its reputation has spread far and wide.  He became the leader of the "Four Great Masters of Hui Mo" (Cao Sugong, Wang Jinsheng, Wang Jie'an, and Hu Kaiwen) in the Qing Dynasty.

    Yao Nai, a famous ancient prose writer in the Qing Dynasty, compared Cao Sugong's ink to Li Tinggui's in "On Mo Quatrains" and praised it highly: "The wind in the Yanshan Mountains breaks through the glue, and the pieces in the box are like spring ice. The work of time stops at unraveling the edge of the paint, and you don't realize it."  The solid metal is like the original edge. Except for Tinggui who praises Naiweng, several outstanding masters can share the same skills. When a man comes to be the prime minister, Yu'er is a craftsman. No wonder Cao Sugong is now here."

    As for Cao Sugong's purple jade light ink, it also has a great origin. It is rumored that when Kangxi passed through Jiangnan, Cao Sugong paid tribute to the emperor with a set of "Huangshan Map". The Huangshan Map has seventy-two peaks and seventy-two caves, and he carved it into an ink mold.  Pay tribute to Kangxi.  Kangxi saw that there were mountains, rivers, poems and articles, and the ink was all of high quality, so he wrote the three words "Purple Jade Light", which is also the origin of "Purple Jade Light given by the Emperor".

    What the Jiang family gave him was the purple jade light made by Cao Sugong himself. On the right side of the ink, in Yangwen regular script, "Kangxi Yichou Meng Dongyue Cao Sugong holds the smoke".  On the other side of the wat, there are three characters "Purple Jade Light" filled in gold in running script; on the back there are two dragons filled in gold, with rice beads embedded above, and two dragons playing with beads, supporting the three characters "Yisu Zhai" filled in blue seal script in inscriptions in the center; on the right side  "Xin'an Cao Sugong chooses top smoke" in regular script in Mian Yang style.

    This ink is green and black, shiny and finely made. It is the first ink among Cao Sugong's ink products.  Meng Zitao liked it as soon as he saw it, and he accepted it without any politeness, and he accepted it with peace of mind.

    "Then I won't be polite."

    Meng Zitao smiled and put away the ink sticks, and then said: "Miss Jiang's mood has stabilized a bit now, but it will still be troublesome if she can't figure it out. But this problem is also difficult for me." (Remember the website address.  £ºwww.hlnovel.com
