After careful observation, they confirmed that the clivia was actually carved from jade. The three old men were completely dumbfounded.
It was not that they had never seen jade carvings before.
However, it was unheard of and unheard of to see such a situation that could pass off as real.
The two middle-aged men in the living room reacted at the same time and came forward one after another.
One of the middle-aged men glared at him and turned to run.
A few breaths later, he returned with the magnifying glass.
He squeezed into the middle of the three old men and aimed the magnifying glass at the jade orchid.
"The leaf veins are clear, the outline is precise, and the stamens and petals are complete.”
"The most amazing thing is that the overall shape is natural without any traces of carving.”
"Unimaginable, unbelievable. This is exactly the same as a naturally formed one.”
The middle-aged man analyzed as he observed. He was extremely shocked.
"Chengjian, with your foresight, how much would this jade sculpture be worth in an auction?”
Elder Tang asked the middle-aged man.
Jiang Chengjian pondered as he said," Since ancient times, gold has a price and jade is priceless. The carving of this work is perfect. Unfortunately, the quality of the jade is relatively average. With the combination of the two, even if the sculptor is unknown, it will not be a problem to start at a million.”
"If the sculptor is famous, it would be worth at least five million yuan in high-quality jade.”
"In the end, in the collection industry, the value of celebrities exceeds the work itself.”
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoning and Jiang Yuqing turned to look at Lin Xi at the same time.
In just half a day, he managed to turn a piece of jade worth 50,000 yuan into a million yuan, and it was still the starting price?
This speed of earning money seemed to be not much worse than robbing money!
Lin Xi pinched her chin and was quite happy.
Because in just a few minutes, his glory points had increased by 40, and he was about to break through 100.
Obviously, this trip was the right one!
At least he didn't let down his meticulous plan.
Moreover, just the appearance alone was worth a million. If he reached the highest realm of spirit resemblance, wouldn't it be at the very most?
"Grandpa, what are you guys looking at?"
The praises of the three old men and Jiang Chengjian quickly attracted the attention of the other young people.
"Eh? What a beautiful orchid. Is this a gift from Yu Qing?”
"I've said it before. Yuqing is the smartest and most thoughtful one among us. She'll definitely be better than all of us. However, why do I feel that this orchid is like jade?”
"Heavens, it's really jade!"
“……”
In a short time, the coffee table was already filled with guests.
With their status, any gift that could be bought with money was not considered precious.
Orchids were no exception.
However, he had never seen a jade carving as exquisite as the one in front of him.
To some extent, Jiang Yuqing's evaluation was correct.
This was indeed the only one in the world.
Amidst the praises, someone suddenly said," Today is Grandpa's birthday. It's fine if some people come uninvited, but they can't possibly not have prepared any gifts, right?”
It was Jiang Zhifeng.
Immediately after, someone echoed.
"How can I not prepare a gift? I reckon that even if it can't compare to Sister Yuqing's jade carved orchids, it's definitely not bad.”
"Dream on! What good things could he take out from a dress that cost less than 500 yuan?”
“……”
Before he could finish his sentence, those young people looked at Lin Xi in unison, gloating over his misfortune.
They were either descendants of the Tang family or had known each other for a long time. Only Lin Xi was an outsider.
Moreover, everyone knew that Jiang Zhifeng was pursuing Liu Xiaoning.
Looking at the intimate look on Liu Xiaoning and Lin Xi's faces, even a fool could guess what was going on.
This time, Jiang Zhifeng must have taken the opportunity to show off.
"Enough."
Jiang Yuqing looked around at the crowd, her face full of anger.
"To tell you the truth, this jade orchid was personally carved by Lin Xi with the jade materials I provided. In terms of sculpting, no one in the current world could compare to him.”
"Impossible."
Jiang Zhifeng cried out in shock. He absolutely couldn't believe it.
Actually, Jiang Zhifeng wasn't the only one who was suspicious.
Everyone present, including the few old masters, could not believe it.
After all, just by looking at her appearance, Lin Xi was obviously very young.
To reach such a level of sculpting at such a young age, even if he started learning from his mother's womb, he would not be able to do it!
"Jiang Yuqing, I know that you're close to Xiaoning and you want someone to come over and freeload and see the world, but isn't that too fake?”
After the shock, Jiang Zhifeng became more and more disdainful.
"Too fake? That was because you had eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai and had never seen an expert who was hidden in the city.”Jiang Yuqing didn't give in." Also, this jade carving was completed by Lin Xi and me. It's a birthday present for Grandpa.”
Despite Jiang Yuqing's promise, it was obvious that no one believed her.
"Lin Xi, Zhifeng has been spoiled by his parents. Don't take it to heart. Whether you have a gift or not, Grandpa will always welcome you.”
Jiang Yuchuan sighed and stood up.
His eyes were filled with disappointment as he looked at Jiang Zhifeng.
"Old Man Jiang, the jade orchid represents Yuqing's filial piety. I don't want to get involved. Moreover, since he had accepted the invitation, how could he come empty-handed? Wouldn't that be rude?”
As Lin Xi spoke, she took out a fist-sized gift box.
He opened the gift box and saw a string of beads inside.
Although it was a string, there was only one bead.
On the surface of the bead were three orchids, lifelike and exquisitely shaped.
"What is it?"
Jiang Zhifeng looked over and couldn't help but laugh.
"This is your gift? You bought it from a stall, right?"
"No, I carved it myself."
Lin Xi said honestly.
"Carved it personally? Haha, you want to kill me with laughter."
"No matter what, this is a token of my appreciation. Pfft, I really can't take it anymore!"
“……”
At the same time, Jiang Yuchuan picked up the bracelet and examined it carefully.
The more he looked, the more shocked and incredulous he became.
Finally, he exhaled and said helplessly,""Lin Xi, this bracelet is really too expensive. This old man is ashamed to accept it!”
Everyone was shocked.
The whispers instantly disappeared, and the living room became so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.
