Chapter 319 She was finally completely disappointed with herself...
That is the box containing "Yufudan".
Before she left Jiangcheng, she asked Zuo Wen to give the things to Mrs. Wen.
Therefore, Wen Shiqi was not surprised to see it here.
I just don’t know... what exactly Mrs. Wen wants from her.
Thinking of the role of "Yufudan", could it be that... Mrs. Wen wanted her to repair some jade for her?
This surprised Wen Shiqi.
It's not that she was surprised to hear that the old lady asked her to repair the jade, but as one of the "last three tasks", repairing the jade was a bit too simple.
Even if there is no exchange condition, as long as Mrs. Wen proposes it, she will never refuse.
It wasn't until she saw the objects that Mrs. Wen brought out from the secret compartment on the wall that Wen Shiqi understood the reason.
This thing... is too broken.
Almost torn apart.
You can't even tell what it looked like originally.
This is not only about repairing, but also about piecing together the original appearance of the object.
Moreover, with this degree of damage, even if the repair is completed, the value of the jade piece has been completely lost.
No wonder Mrs. Wen asked her to participate in the competition and get the "Yu Fu Dan".
Thinking about it, only a divine object like "Yufudan" in this world can restore this jade article to its original appearance.
Next, what Old Madam Wen said made Wen Shiqi feel like she was facing a formidable enemy.
she says:
"I want you to restore this thing to its original appearance."
It's not "as much as possible", nor asking her "can it", but an order, an instruction.
She had to finish.
Wen Shiqi's expression calmed down:
"Yes."
She knew that if she could not complete the repair of this jade piece, she would not be able to get out of here.
Sure enough, the next moment she heard Mrs. Wen say:
"During this period, you can rest here and repair the jade pieces, and don't worry about other things."
This means putting her under house arrest.
However, Wen Shiqi couldn't refuse.
She nodded respectfully: "Yes."
Afterwards, Mrs. Wen left.
Wen Shiqi also held the jade piece and started her work.
This is a very time-consuming and energy-consuming job, requiring her to piece together the broken jade piece by piece.
Since there were no drawings or original photos of the jade piece, she had to rely on her own trial and error.
The most difficult thing is "Yufudan".
Originally, Wen Shiqi could not understand the meaning of what Mr. Ye and Mr. Wen said, "The value of 'Yufudan' can only be discovered when it is put into the hands of the right person."
She only thought that the two elders saw that she was talented and had a unique way of repairing jade, so they felt that she was the "right" person.
It wasn't until she started preparing "Yufudan" that she truly understood its meaning.
Following Mr. Wen's instructions, she first dug out a small portion of "Yufudan" and mixed it with water.
Because she didn't know the proportion, she didn't dare to add more water at one time, so she could only try it a little bit.
But she discovered that this "Yufudan" seemed to be a pill, but it melted when exposed to water.
She didn't know what its ingredients were, but she had just dropped the first drop of water, and the "Yufudan" that was originally solid immediately turned into a liquid state.
Moreover, the original black pills also turned into transparent liquid.
It looks like real clear water.
Wen Shiqi was shocked.
She originally thought that the preparation was complete.
It seems that Ms. Wen did not tell her the proportion of water used because there was no proportion at all.
But when she started trying to use "Yu Fu Liquid" to repair the jade pieces, she discovered that the liquid didn't stick at all.
At first, I thought it would take some more time for it to work, but she waited for five minutes, ten minutes, or even an hour... and there was no sign of adhesion at all...
This "Yu Fu Dan" obviously cannot be fake.
Then there is only one possibility, she is using it wrong.
Then she began to mix different proportions of "Yu Fu Liquid", but failed.
This put the original restoration work at a standstill.
Wen Shiqi suddenly became suspicious. Was it really right for Mr. Wen and Mr. Ye to hand over "Yufudan" to her?
Is she really the "right" person?
Why does she feel like she can't exert any effect of this "Yu Fu Dan"?
Wen Shiqi sat slumped in the chair, feeling shaken for the first time about her talent...and deeply doubtful...
After failing again and again, she finally became completely disappointed with herself.
She chose to ask for help.
Wen Shiqi stood up, walked to the door, and knocked on the door.
The door was immediately opened from the outside.
It was Zuo Wen.
"What are your orders?" he asked.
The tone was still respectful and polite, but it was obviously a little warmer than when Mrs. Wen was present.
"I want to make a phone call." Wen Shiqi said.
"This……"
Zuo Wen was a little hesitant.
From the moment Wen Shiqi entered here, her mobile phone was confiscated.
Obviously to prevent her from contacting the outside world.
"My current restoration work has encountered a bottleneck. I want to call Mr. Wen and ask him about 'Yufudan'.
"You can just listen next to me."
Wen Shiqi explained.
This time, Zuo Wen quickly agreed:
"Please wait."
After saying that, he closed the door and turned to leave.
Not long after, when he came back, he had an extra cell phone.
It was Wen Shiqi's mobile phone.
Wen Shiqi dialed Mr. Wen's number, and the other party answered the call quickly.
Wen Shiqi took the initiative and said:
"Hello, Mr. Wen.
"It's me, I'm..."
Having said this, Wen Shiqi glanced at Zuo Wen next to him, and then continued:
"'zero'.
"I called you suddenly. I wonder if it disturbs you?"
The fact that she took the initiative to reveal her identity in front of Mr. Wen and Mr. Ye was obviously not suitable for Zuo Wen to know.
Mr. Wen opposite didn't seem to care that she introduced "Ling" instead of "Wen Shiqi", and only said happily:
"Don't bother me, don't bother me. What do you want to see me for?"
"Yes……"
Wen Shiqi pursed her lips in embarrassment before speaking out her doubts and dilemma.
On the opposite side, Mr. Wen was not surprised after hearing this, and just sighed:
"This is the mystery of 'Yufudan'."
Wen Shiqi was stunned, and seemed to find something unusual in Mr. Wen's words:
"what do you mean?"
Mr. Wen explained:
"There is no optimal blending ratio for this 'Yufudan'.
“But for each different variety of jade, or even the same variety of different qualities and densities, the blending ratios are different.
“That’s really the hardest thing to unravel about it.
"So, I can't tell you exactly how to prepare it. Sometimes, you may even need to add some other materials to it. This all needs to be explored personally."
After hearing this, Wen Shiqi felt dazed: "It's actually like this..."
No wonder...no wonder when Mr. Wen gave "Yu Fu Dan" to her, he only said that it needed to be dissolved with water, but didn't tell him how to use it.
It turns out it’s because there’s no way to use it at all!
Instead, different blends need to be made according to different jade stones.
This is the true meaning of what Mr. Wen and Mr. Ye said, "Only in the hands of the right person can it be effective."
If you are not born with a super keen perception of jade and just rely on simple attempts, then... it will be really difficult to prepare the most suitable "Yu Fu Liquid"...
"I understand, thank you Mr. Wen for clarifying my doubts."
Wen Shiqi thanked him.
Although Mr. Wen did not help her solve her current predicament, she still expressed her sincere thanks.
The two briefly chatted for a few more words before Wen Shiqi hung up the phone and returned the phone to Zuo Wen.
Zuo Wen took the phone and looked at Wen Shiqi, hesitant to speak...
