"Go ahead." The young man was taken aback, seeing Gu Mian's interested expression, and could only nod his head, taking out the jade Buddha he had previously shown to the elderly couple and handing it over to Gu Mian.

  Gu Mian held the Jade Buddha in his hand, and his left hand immediately transmitted a temperature that was slightly higher than the previous jade button. It was obviously also genuine, but because it wasn't an antique, there wasn't much heat or other sensations in Gu Mian's hand.

  After a careful observation, Gu Bei was basically able to determine that this jade Buddha actually wasn't glass type, but rather extremely close to the glass type, falling between the glass type and ice type.

  This solid-colored glass Buddha is not as expensive as the real glass kind, but it's also much better than ordinary ice kinds and looks very beautiful.

  It seems that this young man has an exaggerating component, which further confirms that this old couple does not understand jade at all, and cannot even distinguish between glass and ice.

  "This seems to be a piece of ice crackle jadeite, and its quality is quite good." Gu Mian thought for a moment, looking at the jade Buddha and muttering to herself.

  "Isn't this a glass species?" The old couple looked at Gu Mian in surprise, and also cast suspicious glances at the young man.

  The young man did not expect Gu Mian to say that, and for a moment he was stunned, staring blankly at Gu Mian.

  Gu Mian ignored the young man and turned to the old couple: "Although I don't understand jade very well, I do know about its types. This Buddha is close to glass type, but it's not! It's generally called ice glass type."

  "What's the difference between ice glass and ordinary glass?" The wife of the old couple, who was more impatient, immediately asked Gu Mian.

  "Of course it's different, the ice crystal is slightly more transparent than the ice type, and slightly inferior to the glass type." Gu Mei raised an eyebrow at the young man, stroking the jade Buddha in her hand with a hint of uncertainty, "Was it him who told you this was the glass type? Did I misjudge?"

  "It's probably just a mistake." The young man shifted his body slightly, seeming somewhat uneasy.

  Gu Meng couldn't help but purse her lips, this young man was indeed good at playing with words. He said a sentence that could be misinterpreted, and didn't clarify whether it was the young man who had accidentally misread or she who had misread.

  Once a seed of doubt is planted, whether it's true or false, if you don't investigate, you can't put your mind at ease.

  The old couple were about to make a decision to buy the young man's jade Buddha, and were preparing to haggle over the price one more time before following the young man's instructions to go outside to pay. As a result of Gu Xiang's words, they immediately became vigilant.

  "Miss, didn't you say you had a jade Buddha that looked like this? Take a look!" The old husband placed the jade Buddha on the counter, gesturing for Gu Mian to pick it up and examine it.

  The young man moved slightly, seemingly wanting to reach out and take the jade Buddha, but unfortunately, Gu Ming's action was one step ahead, and he had already taken the jade Buddha into his own hands before the other could even stretch out his hand.

  "This..." Gu Mian lifted the jade Buddha in her hand and gave the young man a light glance.

  Her gaze seemed unintentional, but it scared the young man so much that a layer of fine sweat broke out on his forehead.

  "Miss, I've brought the jade button." Just then, the female boss returned to the store.

  Gu Meng saw the young man's unease seemed to have increased with the arrival of the female boss, so he thought for a moment and then turned back to smile at the female boss, pointing at the jade Buddha he had been looking at: "Boss, you're just in time. Tell me, what kind is this? Is it glass or ice crystal? I think it's ice crystal."

  The woman boss walked over and said with a glance: "This jade Buddha is the only one in our store, it's made of ice glass, Miss, you really have a good eye."

  "I thought I was seeing things! To think that this glass type and ice jade type are different by more than just a little bit." Gu Mian let out a breath.

  "What about this?" The old couple couldn't sit still anymore, and didn't care that the young man had said not to let the boss know he was secretly selling jade. They pointed at the jade Buddha in Gu Mian's hand and asked the female boss.

  The female boss's face sank as soon as she saw the jade Buddha in Gu Mian's hand, and with a swoosh, she shot an angry glance at the young man.

  "Qin, Qin jie......" The young man trembled uncontrollably.

  "Take your salary for this month and get out of my store right now! I can't afford to keep someone like you. Now, immediately!" The female boss glared at the young man with a furious expression, pulled an envelope from her bag and threw it in front of him.

  "Qin jie wo..." The young man was startled by his female boss's action.

  "Before I change my mind and call the police." The female boss said coldly, seeing that the other party still didn't intend to move, she picked up her mobile phone and started dialing.

  That young man saw the situation and swiftly ran out from behind the counter, grabbed the envelope in front of him, didn't even care about the jade Buddha in Gu's hand, and quickly ran out of the store.

  "What...what's going on here?" The old couple stared blankly at everything in front of them, unable to understand how someone who was fine just a moment ago had suddenly run off.

  "I'm really sorry, that person was supposed to leave tomorrow, didn't expect him to... Luckily you two weren't cheated, or else my small shop's reputation would be ruined." The female boss shook her head, filled with apology towards the elderly couple.

  Gu Mengli immediately understood, it seems that the young man really had a problem, and this female boss still knew what the problem was, otherwise she wouldn't have shown such an expression after seeing the Jade Buddha. Judging from the situation earlier, it's likely that the young man wasn't doing this for the first time behind the female boss's back.

  Gu Yan raised the jade Buddha in his hand: "Such a pretty Water Fairy, how could you just leave like that, don't you want it?"

  "What's this Water Foam? Isn't that Jade?" The old couple looked at each other and turned to ask Gu Mian.

  "Water jade is a type of jade that coexists with emerald, called sodium amphibole jade. Sodium amphibole jade has good water head, semi-transparent or transparent, often presents glassy, icy, milky white, milky yellowish color, with green stripes like clouds and mist, very similar to "Floating Blue Flower Emerald" in appearance, extremely easy to confuse."

  However, the water caltrop is worthless and cheap, often used by people to counterfeit jade for huge profits." Gu Xiang didn't answer their question directly but kindly gave a lesson to the two ignorant old couple.

  The old couple looked at Gu Mian in surprise, their eyes fixed on the jade Buddha in Gu Mian's hand and another piece of ice glass jade Buddha, scanning back and forth between them.

  Actually, as long as you are careful and pay attention, these two can still be distinguished. The weight of the water foam is roughly equivalent to 1/3 of the same volume of jadeite. If you're a beginner, you should hold the water foam in one hand and a natural jadeite in the other for comparison. The water foam has a light and airy feeling, while the jadeite has a solid feel. After comparing many times, you will naturally develop a sense of touch. Just be careful not to weigh it too much, as this is called "overdoing it", if you weigh it too many times, you may end up feeling that there is no tactile sensation at all.

  Gu Xiang handed the water foam jade Buddha to the elderly couple's hands.

  There are several other ways to distinguish between Water Chestnut and Jade, but it's not necessary for Gu Xiang to elaborate at this moment.

  The old couple tried the real jade and water droplet Buddha one by one, their facial expressions were very unsightly, they put down the things without saying much, nodded at Gu Xiang and the female boss, then quickly left the store.

  "Thank you so much today, miss." The female boss smiled at Gu Mian and placed the jade button in front of her: "You can choose whatever you like, consider it a gift from me."

  The female boss is also a sensible person, and Gu Mian is obviously someone who understands the trade. She had come to ask her previously only because she had discovered something was off. If it weren't for Gu Mian, this small shop might have been ruined by an unscrupulous employee, not only losing its reputation but also getting into a lot of trouble.

  "This won't do, I'm buying it to give as a gift. Besides, I didn't say anything much, just mentioned the characteristics of water chestnuts and some simple identification methods. It was you, boss, who scared the customer away." Gu Mei said with a smile.

  She was initially just a bit suspicious, and after confirming that the young man's jade Buddha was actually a water bubble, she didn't plan to directly expose him, but just wanted to make the old couple suspect and give up buying it. As a result, she didn't expect the female boss to come back so quickly.

  But this is better for her, after all, this matter is not aimed at her, and directly facing such a conflict is not her usual practice. It's best to make the old couple understand her meaning in a roundabout way.

  "Auntie, what's wrong?" A man looked at the old couple who quickly walked away, holding something in their arms, and entered the store.

  "Ark, Qin Sheng, you've arrived." The female boss looked up at the newcomers, a faint smile spreading across her face.

  Gu Mei heard the two words "Qin Sheng" and quickly looked over.

  She originally thought it was just a namesake, but she didn't expect it to be the Qin Sheng she knew. Today, he wore a dark gray plaid shirt, and indeed lived up to his reputation as a plaid shirt man.

  "Hello, Miss Gu." Qin Sheng's eyes showed a hint of surprise as he politely greeted Gu Cai.

  Gu Mei withdrew her thoughts and nodded calmly: "Mr. Qin, hello."

  "Do you know each other?" The female boss looked at Gu Mian and Qin Sheng in surprise, while Fang Zhou also looked at the two with a curious gaze.
