Section 208: Red Makeup Painted with Large Pens Like Rafters (8)
Wang Ai sighed and sat on the edge of the bed: "I haven't seen much yet."
"You haven't seen it yet?" the little beauty put down the bowl and asked curiously.
"Is that okay?" Wang Ai took the bowls and chopsticks and stood up and sent them outside. After coming back, he continued: "When I was in Germany, I was thinking about giving you something. I asked you earlier that you didn't want anything. After thinking about it, I decided to give it to you.
I’ll give you something more traditional. But longevity locks are a bit too tacky..."
"It's either gold or silver..."
Wang Ai narrowed his eyes and pointed at the little beauty: "Shut up!"
Shi Wenjun snorted and waited for the man to continue.
"It's not difficult for me to give you something written by a great calligrapher, but the price is hard to say. After all, collectibles are not as reliable as real money. So I'll just go with it. At most, I can find someone to do it.
Just make it more artistic and complicated." Wang Ai still looked around the room: "But I didn't understand it myself, so I remembered my old friends from the National Expo, so I called them and asked them to give me a look and specifications.
Hey, they were still laughing at me, saying that I spent the money blindly, but they still helped me solve the problem. In the end, I found an old goldsmith, whose ancestors were from the imperial manufacturing office, and they were in the same circle."
Shi Wenjun sometimes lowered his head to look at his daughter, and sometimes raised his head to listen to what Wang Ai said.
"Aren't you okay after you come back? I took the time before going to Xianghe to buy two gold bars and send them over. The gemstones were all taken from my mother's jewelry cabinet, hehe." Wang Ai laughed,
He even took a look outside: "Then I went to Xianghe until I came back yesterday. I picked it up when I was passing by. I heard that you wouldn't give birth, so I rushed back and didn't have time to take a look. I originally planned to give birth to you.
I gave it to you again, but to this day I still remember the brilliant golden light, which made me unable to open my eyes. I couldn’t see the specific patterns or carvings clearly."
"How much did it cost?" Shi Wenjun got straight to the point.
"Not counting gems, it would cost 1.2 million with work and materials."
"So many?" Shi Wenjun said in surprise: "Except for houses, I have never used anything so expensive since I was a child."
"Then look at it!" Wang Ai said proudly: "Two gold bars are more than 800,000 yuan. Plus the experts who repair cultural relics for the Forbidden City and the master craftsmen who make jewelry for the emperor and queen, a total of five or six people are busy working on this.
The fan finally cost me over 300,000 yuan in wages. To be honest, if we hadn’t been friends, they wouldn’t have paid any attention to us. Even if they threw money at us, they wouldn’t take it seriously, so they would definitely fool us.”
"Where's the gem?"
"I don't know." Wang Ai shook his head: "My mother didn't need to put a price on the things she bought. She bought them as soon as she liked them. I estimate it was three to four million, about the same. Hey, let me tell you, when we first discussed it, they gave it to me.
As you said, the gold wire that binds the gems is all hand-drawn, and the cross-section is rectangular, not round, otherwise it won't be able to be tied... Hey, can you take it out and let me see?"
Shi Wenjun couldn't help laughing: "No!"
"Let me see."
"No."
"I, I'm angry!"
“I won’t even give in when I’m angry!”
Just as Wang Ai was thinking about it, Shi Wenjun waved to the door: "Zhonghua, come in and see my sister."
Wang Ai turned around and saw his second son, Mr. Wang Zhonghua, huddled at the door with his head peeping out. This child had a big frame, just like his mother. He was only over one year old and still wearing diapers. He was running around alone, and he didn’t know his big-hearted mother.
Where did he go?
"This is your sister." Wang Ai held her son and pointed at her sleeping daughter.
"Sister, sister." Wang Zhonghua repeated twice: "What is sister?"
Looking at his son's innocent big eyes, Wang Ai suddenly felt that it was hard to explain this matter to him. As he was talking, his daughter woke up and cried when she woke up. Looking at his son's mouth, he seemed to want to cry with him. Wang Ai hurriedly
Standing up, just in time Wenjun also rushed people out: "The child is hungry."
When she said this, Wang Ai didn't want to leave: "Let me take a look."
"What are you looking at? It took a long time for China to avoid breast milk."
Wang Ai carried his son who was reluctant to leave and walked out, muttering: "As if I haven't seen it. If you wait, I will punish you to death."
At noon, Shi Wenjun could go to the ground. Wang Ai was preparing to eat. Leonie ran in like a wind, holding a stick in her hand that was still clinking. Wang Ai took a look: Oh, it's golden, oh, it's in her hand.
Here!
"I won't show it to you!" Shi Wenjun saw Wang Ai looking at her, so he repeated it.
Wang Ai rolled his eyes, stood up and looked outside: "Mom, the meal is ready."
Ai Xiaoqing carried Mr. Wang Zhonghua into the restaurant, put the child away and gave it to Leonie. Leonie touched her head and said aggrievedly: "...I just took a look, I didn't push the stone down."
"I'm only about forty years old, and I've been taking care of your children all day long." Ai Xiaoqing pushed the fan to Shi Wenjun angrily: "After putting it away, you just let her play with tens of millions of things? You
Don’t you feel bad too?”
"Ah?" Shi Wenjun quickly "lifted" the fan.
"I didn't fall, it was just too heavy and fell on the grass." Leonie explained carefully.
"No, what about the tens of millions?" Shi Wenjun put down his fan and said carefully, "Wang Ai told me yesterday that it was only a few million."
"Does he know about gems?" Ai Xiaoqing glanced at several people: "Forget about gems, he thinks gold costs 200 per gram?"
Wang Ai chuckled and said to Shi Wenjun: "My mother's cabinet is full of good things. I grabbed a handful of big and beautiful ones. I don't know how much they cost."
Ai Xiaoqing sighed and picked up the chopsticks: "Okay, let's eat. It's all your stuff sooner or later. In fact, I was still thinking about waiting for you... Oh, I'll find a chance to give some to you each, so I took the initiative to take it this time.
It’s time to worry. By the way, do you want jade? A few years ago, I saved a warehouse while it was not very expensive. If you want it, I’ll find someone to cut it.”
Leonie giggled: "I'm not stupid! If you really want it, don't let me go through your cabinet. Then there will be no place to steal it."
Ai Xiaoqing pointed at Leonie with her finger: "I'll break my hand for you!"
Shi Wenjun laughed: "Actually, this fan is unnecessary, not to mention the others. Jewelry has become more and more expensive in recent years. It is better to keep it for appreciation or reserve it than to use it.
good."
Ai Xiaoqing nodded: "Okay, the first girl in our family will have a good meal when her father comes back in the evening."
Leonie suddenly said in the middle of eating: "The price of gems has risen very fast in the past few years. We can collect some in advance and find some with greater appreciation potential."
"When it comes to the potential for appreciation, it mainly depends on how big the potential market is." Ai Xiaoqing thought: "The appreciation of jade is mainly due to the Chinese people recognizing it. In the past, Chinese people were poor, but foreigners did not recognize it, so there is an appreciation curve.
