"Master Luo, you don't have to be disappointed. I will give the carved blood jade bracelet to a very distinguished person. I can leave your name on the appraisal of this artifact..."
Zhuang Rui saw what Luo Jiang was thinking, but some people are interested in fame, while others are after profit. If you carve an object like Luo Jiang, you can gain both fame and fortune. It is understandable to be a little excited. People in this world who are always shouting about being indifferent to fame and wealth are not
Not much, but if fame and fortune were put in front of them, I'm afraid these people would fight for it more than anyone else.
"Boss Zhuang, you...are you telling the truth?"
After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Luo Jiang's somewhat depressed expression immediately became excited again. He didn't care whether Zhuang Rui was going to sell or give away the object he carved, as long as he didn't hide it in the basement.
, that can spread your reputation.
"Of course it's true, otherwise why would I be making these bracelets? By the way, some of those objects made of ice materials are for sale. You can also leave your name on the appraisal certificate when the time comes."
For some top-quality jewelry, it is necessary to have an appraisal certificate from an authoritative organization. Although this bracelet is given to relatives rather than sold, Zhuang Rui also plans to go to the Jade Association to get a few appraisal certificates to fill in. He has this right as a
The director of the Jade Association can still do it.
Zhuang Rui is only planning to take out one pair of bracelets made of top-quality red jadeite as a gift for his grandmother's 70th wedding anniversary. He has kept the rest. Even his mother will not give them to him for the time being, because Zhuang Rui knows that her mother doesn't like them very much.
Such a bright and ostentatious color.
Zhuang Min liked it, but Zhuang Rui didn't dare to give it to her. It was too valuable, and the public security in Pengcheng was not good. If someone spotted it, it would cause trouble.
A few years ago, two old ladies were enjoying the cool weather outside in the summer. They were robbed by a gangster. After taking away their jewelry, they tore off the old lady's earrings before running away.
The old lady's earlobe was torn and she was bleeding profusely.
Accessories worn close to the body like pendants are usually fine, but for eye-catching objects like bracelets, Zhuang Rui would not give them to his sister. Even the two imperial green earrings, he had told Zhuang Min
, don’t wear it out if you have nothing to do.
As for the jewelry made of ice material, Zhuang Rui has also planned to keep some to give away and sell the rest. Speaking of which, the material was bought with money, so you can't not get back a penny.
There are a lot of gifts from my mother's family. When Ouyang Jun gets married, Zhuang Rui plans to give him a pair of ice-type ruby bracelets. In addition, he asks Luo Jiang to use the remaining materials from the bracelets to make a few more pairs of earrings and pendants and give them to him.
Those aunts and sisters I have never met before were mentioned on TV yesterday. Isn’t it strange that there are so many people? This is also a matter of honor for my mother.
Zhuang Rui mentally allocated the destinations for these uncarved objects. Luo Jiang, who was next to him, also calmed down and said to Zhuang Rui: "Boss Zhuang, in this case, I won't accept the reward for carving jade this time. You
Show me Zhuoyu's site, I can start work now."
Some friends may be confused after seeing this. This is a reward of 200,000 RMB. If you don’t want it, you don’t want it? This is actually not difficult to understand. The top-grade red jade here includes jewelry made of ice material.
As long as it flows to the market in the future, Luo Jiang's name will definitely shine in the jade industry. After becoming famous, are you afraid that you won't be able to make such a small amount of money?
Another thing is that as long as Zhuang Rui spreads the news that he has these materials, those jade carving masters who are more famous than him will recommend themselves to Zhuang Rui to carve jade for free without paying. Luo Jiang is a smart man.
, proposed it himself, and blocked Zhuang Rui's idea of finding someone else to carve this batch of jade.
In fact, this is because Luo Jiang attaches too much importance to these top-quality jade materials. How did he know that Zhuang Rui, an "expert", didn't know the twists and turns here, and some time ago he would find someone to carve jade with a frown on his face.
"Master Luo, as long as your craftsmanship is good, you will still get the money you deserve. Don't worry. Although I, Zhuang Rui, am not old, I still mean what I say. You don't have to worry about this."
Zhuang Rui was also worried that he didn't carve the materials carefully. Compared to the jade material worth millions and millions for a bracelet, two hundred thousand dollars was nothing.
"Let's go, I'll take you to see Zhuoyu's site. I've bought all the machines. If there's anything missing, just tell me and I'll buy it again."
Seeing that Luo Jiang was still refusing, Zhuang Rui waved his hand, stood up, and walked out the door first. Luo Jiang, who was about to speak, could only shut his mouth and followed Zhuang Rui.
"Well, this is a grinding machine, but there is also a polishing machine? Then the speed can be accelerated..."
After Luo Jiang entered the garage, he fiddled with the machines carefully and pulled off all the plastic bags on them. He didn't expect Zhuang Rui to be so well prepared. After seeing these materials, Luo Jiang felt that he couldn't finish the job in a month.
Yes, it seems that it can be made a little earlier now.
"Master Luo, do you think there is still something missing?" Zhuang Rui asked from the side.
"There are quite a few, and the tools are very complete. As for the grinding powder and other things, I have brought them, so I can start working now..."
Seeing these tools, Luo Jiang's face showed a hint of excitement. He asked Zhuang Rui to form a circle around four or five machines, leaving three square meters of space inside, and then ran back to the villa happily.
"Do you want a chair?"
Zhuang Rui thought Luo Jiang went back to the villa to move chairs. Who knew that after he opened the suitcase he brought with him, he took out a small drawing board and a thick stack of white paper and clamped it on the drawing board.
He looked at the piece of glass jadeite on the coffee table carefully.
The processing procedures of this jade are generally divided into material selection, design, grinding and polishing. Now there is no need to choose the material. The next work of the cloth is naturally the design. This is also a very important part of the craftsmanship of the jade carving master. The basic skills are strong.
It is not solid, as can be seen from the design drawings he drew. The jade master mentioned above must master the skills of painting, which is why.
Zhuang Rui also knew a little bit about several processes of jade processing. Seeing that Luo Jiang was concentrating on the drawing board and the jade material, he didn't bother him anymore and quietly exited the hall and went to the garden to meet Bai Bai.
The lion had a lot of fun.
During this period, Bai Shi's internal injuries were basically healed, and he returned to his former glory. Every time he played with Zhuang Rui, he would push Zhuang Rui to the ground and spit on his face before letting him get up.
Autumn has entered in late August, and the weather is not as hot as it was some time ago. Walking in this tree-lined garden, I actually feel a bit of coolness. I sit on the pavilion above the pond and watch the fish swimming in the water.
Rui was in a daze, as if he hadn't been so leisurely in a long time.
However, Zhuang Rui's leisure was interrupted by several phone calls. Ouyang Jun called. His wedding was scheduled for the end of November, before the old man's ninetieth birthday. Everyone in the Ouyang family would attend, including
Zhuang Rui, who was about to enter the central government after the change of office at the end of the year, had a good impression of this uncle whom he had never met before after learning about his mother's past.
Gu Yun also called and informed Zhuang Rui that all the original buildings of the courtyard had been demolished and that it would enter the construction stage from today. When Gu Yun knew that Zhuang Rui would not arrive in Beijing in a month, he threatened on the phone,
I will give Zhuang Rui a big surprise then.
The two phone calls above were nothing, but when he received a call from Miao Feifei, Zhuang Rui was a little confused.
Officer Miao actually strongly asked Zhuang Rui to return to Beijing now. He didn't say anything specific. Of course Zhuang Rui couldn't leave now, so he could only refuse. Officer Miao hung up the phone very unhappy.
Bian Zhuangrui was also confused and planned to apologize to Officer Miao the next time he went to Beijing.
Before he knew it, three or four hours had passed, and the sky was gradually getting darker. Zhuang Rui walked into the villa and looked at Luo Jiang, who was still wandering among the jade stones. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. Do you still want to eat this meal?
Woolen cloth.
"Ahem, Master Luo?" Zhuang Rui coughed, interrupting Luo Jiang who was writing on the drawing board with a pencil.
"Hmm? Boss Zhuang, what's going on?"
Luo Jiang raised his head in shock, slightly dissatisfied that his thoughts were interrupted.
Zhuang Rui smiled bitterly and pointed to the watch on his wrist, and said: "Master Luo, it's almost seven o'clock. Let's go out for a meal, which can be regarded as catching the wind for you."
"No need, I can eat whatever I have at home, even instant noodles."
When Luo Jiang heard this, he lowered his head again, but then he felt that this attitude towards the boss was a bit inappropriate, so he raised his head again and said: "Boss Zhuang, you're welcome, I just have an idea now, so I'll draw these drawings first.
, we can start work tomorrow..."
"Okay, Master Naluo, please do your work first..."
Of course, Zhuang Rui was too embarrassed to treat anyone to instant noodles. He drove out of the villa and was going to find a restaurant to order some food and wine.
However, when leaving the villa, Zhuang Rui told the security guard at the door that if the person in his room went out, he must carefully check the items he brought and call himself immediately. After all, those two pieces of jade were too precious.
, Zhuang Rui also had to be on guard.
After finding a hotel not far from the villa area and ordering a few dishes, Zhuang Rui asked for their phone number. I'm afraid he would have to call this place for food delivery in the next few months.
Back at the villa, Zhuang Rui greeted Luo Jiang and after dinner, he went back to his room to watch TV online without causing any more trouble to Luo Jiang.
But when he woke up at three or four in the morning, Zhuang Rui opened the door and took a look into the living room and found that the lights there were still on.
