Chapter 1560 The Descendant of the Imperial Craftsman
"My ancestor Ma was a jade craftsman and a jade carving master. His skills in this area are outstanding."
"It's just that old craftsmanship will inevitably be a bit outdated in terms of design. If Miss Yue wants to invite the Ma family, she'd better come up with the design herself."
This was said by Lao Hou.
He also whispered in a low voice.
Lao Hou and Lao Ma are buddies who are closer than real brothers. They are very young.
They don't know what Lao Ma's family does.
Now that the jade carving has reached Lao Ma's generation, it is no longer good, but there is still an uncle in his family.
My eyes are almost going blind, but my craftsmanship has never been lost.
People who know Uncle Ma will also pay him a lot of money to make jewelry or ornaments.
Unfortunately, Uncle Ma rarely takes orders nowadays.
The customers are all regular customers, and no new customers will be ignored.
Old craftsmen all have some strange virtues. When Lao Ma made this request, I was afraid that his ambition was not small.
Otherwise, what could he do to convince his uncle to take the order?
He does not mean that.
Manshu's eyelids twitched, the jade carving master, no, he is the royal craftsman of the palace!
She had seen some old books in her master's study, and it was recorded in them that there was a royal craftsman named Ma, named Ma Shizhan, who made jewelry that even the Queen Mother praised highly.
Later, he was framed and imprisoned because he was involved in the dispute over the inheritance.
And because the Queen Mother showed pity for his craftsmanship, she pardoned him and spared his life, so he was driven out of the capital.
Could it be that this Ma Shizhan is the ancestor of Lao Ma?
If he is really the descendant of Master Ma, he does have some abilities.
"You want it?" Manshu's eyes lit up and Yue Qingwan saw it.
"Do you know his craftsmanship?"
Manshu nodded: "Master Ma, did he have a palace craftsman named Ma Shizhan in his ancestors?"
"Yes, yes! This is my great ancestor. I really did not lie to Miss Yue. If you want to make jewelry, my uncle's craftsmanship is worthy of it in the entire imperial capital." Old Ma gave a thumbs up.
“Do you have any photos of the finished product?”
Yue Qingyuan was cautious and would not just listen to Lao Ma's words.
Although Lao Hou confirmed it, these two people were originally in the same group.
What if Lao Ma just borrowed the reputation of Ma Shizhan?
Throughout the ages, many people have deliberately gotten involved with some important person.
A few years ago, who could still hear someone saying that he was the last princess of the Qing Dynasty?
These are all tricks of liars!
"It's true!" Lao Ma didn't lie. He took out his mobile phone and looked through it for a long time.
"It was a coincidence. I went over to visit my uncle and saw him putting this hosta on the table, saying that he had just made it and was waiting for the guests to pick it up."
"Would you like to see it?"
When the photos were taken out, they were really not adulterated at all.
To be precise, this is a black jade plum blossom hairpin.
Just looking at the photos on my phone, I can see that the shape of this cuttlefish and plum blossom hairpin is an antique style, but it is extremely finely crafted, the plum blossoms are beautiful, and the ink jade, whether it is polished or polished, looks extraordinary.
Yue Qingwan believed it six or seven times. If Master Ma was really allowed to make a set of jewelry for her, the quality of the jewelry would go up.
"Tell me, what do you want?"
Yue Qingwan didn't believe that a businessman like Lao Ma, who was smarter than a monkey, would make big moves for no reason.
In order to avoid trouble, he would never act in his uncle's name.
Otherwise, if he wants to do something, he won't be able to get business that his uncle can't finish in several years?
"My requirements are not high. I just wait for the jewelry to be made and put it in my shop for a month. At that time, Miss Yue will take it away!"
Yue Qingyuan smiled and immediately understood his intention.
But Manshu's eyes lit up and she had a better idea.
