Chapter 229 Decline

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

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

Zeng Yuan looked 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 director said that there is already a one-meter-long exquisitely carved clam in the museum. Tridacna art is no longer needed.”

At this time, Tridacna can still be bought and sold normally. Although Jade Tridacna is rare, it is still an organic gem that can be seen frequently.

So even though 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.

After hearing this, Zhou Chenglei said calmly: "Forget it."

There is no museum in their city, only in the province. Zhou Chenglei didn't know anyone, but Zhang Rong made jewelry and collected antiques. He knows the person, and 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.

"The jade clam is at my eldest brother's house. Just wait, I will tell my wife and I will take you to see it."

So Zhou Chenglei went in and told Jiang Xia about Zhang Rong. I came with Zhang Rui and told them 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 bowls and chopsticks: "Wait for me, I'll get the camera to take pictures as a souvenir."

Father Zhou stopped eating when he heard the meal: "Me too Come over!”

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 washing the dishes, Tian Caihua looked at the two-meter-tall guy and thought sadly: "Is there water in your brain? Donate such a large piece of jade clam! This is If you sell it by the pound, it’s worth one or two thousand yuan per pound, right? They can donate it to me.”

My family has just ordered a new fishing boat, and the family’s savings have been almost used up! , Tian Caihua was reluctant to eat even one more fish.

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

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

She felt that if it were given to her, the remaining payment for her boat would be Don't worry anymore.

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

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

No one will push money out without any reason.

Zhou Chenglei and his party 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 did not expect that the museum would not accept it. Although it was different from the plot in the book, many things are now 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 knows that there is a special jade clam museum in modern times, but that museum was only built more than thirty years later.

Nowadays, clams have not been 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.

Oil is even more so. It is estimated that many years later, when the 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 a 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 light bulb is obviously not enough.

Zhang Rong held a flashlight and shined it on it. Under the light of the flashlight, he saw that 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 again 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: "It was your sister-in-law who picked it up, not me."

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

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: "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 out of luck and the jeep can't load it."

Zhou Chenglei responded. He said: "Okay."

Tian Caihua listened for a long time, and seeing that neither Zhou Chenglei nor Jiang Xia asked about the price, he couldn't help but ask: "How much can this big guy sell for?"
< br>Zhang Rong: "It should be sold for more than five thousand yuan."

Tian Caihua gasped!

Five thousand yuan!

Which God of Wealth did Jiang Xia worship, and he picked up 5,000 yuan just by going to the beach?

Envy!

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."

Tian Caihua Upon hearing this, he 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 the 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. Take a look.”

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

Zhou Chenglei came in with a document bag at this time, and said directly: "Okay, you can take it back!"

There are always some people in this world who are worthy of your trust, Zhang Rong is here Zhou Chenglei is such a person in his heart.
