The reason why people take a breath of air is because the set of gold jewelry is so realistic that the first thing people think after seeing it is: wow! These are not several snakes, but snakes that are gathering momentum.
Human beings have dealt with snakes in ancient times. Whether they are venomous or non-venomous snakes, humans have suffered a lot, which has caused humans to be nervous about snakes engraved on their DNA. How many reptiles are there for snakes?
Have less fear.
Therefore, when those people saw the set of jewelry for the first time, their adrenaline was soaring. The timid ones almost screamed, their bodies were trembling with fear, and they could not walk.
The fear that comes from the depths of the heart may make people completely defeated. Fortunately, not all people are so frightened that they cannot stand it. Those who are more courageous are just afraid that they will be prepared to fish for things and kill snakes, and are not willing to catch them without mercy.
Then some people remembered that what the other party was talking about was jewelry, so it couldn't be a real snake. They came to their senses first and looked at the set of jewelry carefully, which also calmed down the others.
When the people in the jewelry store came to their senses, they found a lot of sweat on their foreheads and backs, because they really felt that kind of fear - the fear from deep inside, which made people lose their composure.
After they calmed down, they discovered that in addition to the lifelike snake body, the eyes of all snakes were sparkling green, originally inlaid with sapphires (1). The green eyes made people feel that they were real snakes.
Wow! This is so similar that people who see it feel a little unable to accept it for a while. Fear makes them completely lose their ability to judge and regard the fake as the real thing.
When they come out of their fear and look at it from a tasting perspective, they will find that this set of jewelry is so well made that it really makes people want to look at it again and again.
In fact, reptiles such as snakes represent an unspeakable danger to humans, but this does not mean that there are no people who like snakes among humans. There are some people who like snakes and even regard them as their favorite pets.
Although most humans have a respectful attitude towards snakes, I don’t know if it is because of the mystery attached to snakes. In many myths and stories, there are often beauties transformed by snakes.
Even in the era of oral tradition, there were stories of snakes turning into humans and having a certain intimacy with humans. However, the character of the snake demon gradually changed to a certain extent. In the past, even if the snakes turned into humans, they probably retained too much.
Animal nature, and later gradually became more humane.
The most obvious representative is the change in "The Legend of White Snake". Most people in later generations felt helpless because of the separation and reunification between Xu Xian and White Snake. They loved the virtuous and intelligent Bai Suzhen in the story.
But this beautiful legend was not so good at the beginning. A story related to the Legend of the White Snake is the "White Snake" in the Tang Dynasty Legend. The male protagonist Li Huang spent three days with a young woman in white. After returning home, the slave found his body
There was a fishy smell, and after that, Li Huang's body turned into yellow water, leaving only a head.
emmmmmmm! This story of White Snake is not a so-called romance story, but more like a thriller story. When I think that Li Huang, who fell in love with a demon, will eventually become the so-called yellow water, no one will think that he is very lucky.
The story continued to exist in the Song and Yuan Dynasties, but was significantly changed in the Ming Dynasty. The location was changed from Chang'an to Lin'an, and the male protagonist was changed to Xu Xian. After marrying the White Snake, he was broken up by Fahai, and the White Snake was suppressed in the Leifeng Pagoda.
, the story becomes twists and turns and looks good.
Of course, the heroine in the story, White Snake, has also changed her character. She was originally a goblin who sucked the essence of men, but she transformed into a beauty who wants to repay her kindness.
The Legend of White Snake probably reflects that most humans have some mysterious affection for snakes. In the story, white snakes and green snakes all transform into beauties. It is more or less that humans think snakes are beautiful.
Some snakes are solid colors, while others have many colors on their bodies. No matter how you look at it, the color combinations will look quite bold, but they are also extremely harmonious and beautiful. If you enlarge the arrangement of the scales, they will look very harmonious.
Therefore, even if people feel danger when they see snakes, they have to admit that they are very beautiful. This is a contradictory feeling that will be deeply remembered by people.
It is precisely because of this that some people may not like this set of jewelry. After all, the fear in people's hearts is not easy to resolve. People who are particularly afraid of snakes will naturally never take it off because this set of jewelry looks too much like a snake.
This kind of fear will directly exclude it from the range of one's favorites. This is a very normal reaction. Relatively speaking, the audience for the entire set of jewelry will be smaller.
But it doesn’t mean that no one likes it, because snakes have a characteristic, and they have an ultimate elegance in a dangerous atmosphere. The same is true for this set of jewelry. The two qualities of elegance and danger are intertwined. No matter how you look at it, it will make this
A set of jewelry becomes more sought-after.
Why do you say this? Don’t think that niche means it must be cheap. Because niche people like fewer things, they naturally care more about the things they like, and they don’t want to be without the things they like, especially in this kind of jewelry luxury goods.
Reflected more clearly.
You must know that the largest customer base for jewelry is the aristocrats. As the richest and most leisurely people in the world, Danteng, who is often idle, likes nothing more than comparison.
The workmanship on this set of jewelry is really good. It was specially designed by Ling Xiao to suit most people's aesthetics. The green sapphire inlaid in it is also a rare gemstone. These conditions make this set of jewelry unique.
Features that are difficult to copy.
Even if it is copied, due to different craftsmen and gemstones, it may not be able to meet the standards of that set of jewelry. Therefore, this set of jewelry has a lot of room for appreciation, and the jewelry store that received the jewelry is really happy.
.
When Monte saw this set of jewelry, he had to admit that it was the most stunning piece of jewelry among all. Although it was a bit niche, it would definitely make people who like it rush for it.
It’s not that other jewelry is bad, it’s just that jewelry stores don’t look so stunning when they have similar styles. But there is a good thing, that is, the audience is very wide, so you don’t have to worry about not being able to sell it.
Fortunately, those jewelry pieces are all made of real materials, and the quality of the gemstones is guaranteed. It would definitely be a good thing if the jewelry store can accept them this time.
As the person in charge, Monte was secretly glad that he took this transaction seriously and did not anger this big customer, otherwise these sets of jewelry would not fall into his hands.
Others inspected the jewelry very carefully. Although the hardness of the gemstones is not low, they are still very fragile. A slight collision of some gemstones does not matter, but if they fall off, the gemstones will often be damaged.
There are also some that are more fragile. Not to mention falling, they may fall apart even if they are slightly bumped. Also, you must not encounter overheated environments when wearing them. Even skin care products cannot touch the gems. You really need to pay special attention to the integrity of the gems.
.
That's why the people who took over the work were so cautious, fearing that flaws would appear due to their own mistakes. After some inspection, they found that it was very good, and in their eyes it was a perfect work.
Ling Xiao felt it was a pity that because of the gem processing technology in this world, those gems did not have the cutting method of later generations. Otherwise, there would definitely be fire and the gems would be more beautiful.
Ling Xiao never said anything about this. She watched quietly as the people inspected the sets of jewelry. Obviously, they didn't want to modify the jewelry this time because they were beautiful enough.
Monte bargained carefully with Ling Xiao, but in the end he didn't lower the price much. The other party had his own plans, and the jewelry was perfect enough, and the other party was unwilling to give in. The jewelry store was eager to get the jewelry, so he had to
Give in.
Ling Xiao didn't go too far and left some profit margins for the jewelry store. In fact, she didn't think that the jewelry store would lose money. Those profiteers would definitely not stop until they made a profit.
But Ling Xiao doesn't have the time to spend time with multiple customers. If he sells the jewelry himself, the price may drop, which is more risky. The jewelry store will increase the value of the jewelry.
Anyway, after getting enough benefits, Ling Xiao didn't care about what the jewelry store was going to do. It was not Ling Xiao's responsibility to sell the goods. She got part of the gold coins.
Because the number of transactions this time was too large, the jewelry store could not afford so many gold coins at one time. The working capital still had to be raised, and it was impossible to get it now.
Therefore, Ling Xiao made some transactions with the jewelry store. She now takes away part of the gold coins, and a large part of the money belongs to the promissory notes. The jewelry store will pay out one after another in the following years.
Afterwards, the two parties signed a contract. If the promissory note from the jewelry store was not paid by then, Ling Xiao had the right to get his jewelry back. Naturally, Monte would not let this happen.
He didn't know why Ling Xiao was so confident, but when he witnessed Ling Xiao smashing a stone with a light punch, he knew how powerful the opponent was. This person's personal strength was too strong and he must not be offended.
Ling Xiao left the city easily and told Monte to put the remaining gold coins in another city in a year. At that time, she would take the certificate to withdraw the money. She believed that the jewelry store would have enough gold coins to pay the remaining amount at that time.
Monte naturally agreed repeatedly. He also thought that he would be able to get more jewelry styles from Ling Xiao again, and that he would be able to sell these jewelry within a year.
After saying this, Ling Xiao left the city and changed her clothes again. It was precisely because of her repeated changes of clothes that those who wanted to find her could not find her, and she disappeared from everyone's sight.
Ling Xiao walked slowly on the road. She also searched for news about the blonde beauty and Transy, and then she found out that the two sea kings had separated.
Ah! They are so dedicated. The two of them are fighting for the great cause of protecting the country for the blond beauty. They are really unwilling to give up! When Ling Xiao heard it, he knew that the two of them were not willing to give up, and they were fighting like little strong men who could not be killed.
Why are they separated? Ling Xiao really wants to lock up the two Neptune Kings and harm each other. Don't use your beauty to do evil and seduce others just because you are beautiful.
To be blunt, most people really can't handle it when they encounter this level of Neptune. Who makes these two people really beautiful? There are many people who are like moths to a flame and pay for them.
In fact, what gou lickers do is their own business. This is personal freedom. Ling Xiao will never sympathize with those gou lickers. What Ling Xiao sympathizes with is their relatives. The benefits may not be taken away from them, but the disadvantages are definitely there.
Can't run away.
The reason why Ling Xiao often heard news about blond beauties during his stay in big cities was because those news had a somewhat glamorous flavor, and this news was easy for people to spread.
After Ling Xiao found out, she just listened, without paying much attention or making any speculations. She didn't trust the gossip very much, and someone would definitely add fuel to the fire as it was passed around.
Especially the news about the upper class that comes from the mouths of ordinary people is likely to be even more distorted, because ordinary people have no idea what the upper class is like, and the situation is greatly distorted by adding fuel and jealousy.
The reason why Ling Xiao said this was because he remembered a joke once: It was said that the country people were wondering what the emperor was using, and they said that the emperor was using a gold pole. Hahaha! How could the emperor use a gold pole?
From the perspective of those who know the true life of the royal family, the so-called rumors are more of a joke, so Ling Xiao only listens to the so-called gossip and does not pay much attention to it.
She walked slowly along the way and finally got the remaining gold coins. The people in the jewelry store kept their promise and paid out all the gold coins. In fact, the jewelry store did not suffer any loss at all. Those jewelry made them a lot of money.
After getting the money, she thought for a long time and finally decided to go to the original territory of the Saint Laurent Kingdom to cause trouble. After all, the blonde beauty wanted to restore the country.
What Ling Xiao wants to do is to make it impossible for the restorer to restore the country. In fact, Ling Xiao finds it strange that after the original Saint Laurent Kingdom fell, those people became the people who lost the country. Could it be that there are new nobles taking advantage of the situation?
enter?
After arriving, she learned that the originally ownerless land naturally had new lords. However, those so-called lords were mostly unsuccessful nobles, and there were no powerful people here at all.
Ling Xiao even heard that some nobles were descendants of nobles who were sold and enslaved by human traffickers. They were later rescued, but their original positions were taken away and they never came back. The final compensation they received was the land of the abandoned Saint Laurent Kingdom.
,
He obviously had a very bright future, but he was framed because of his bright future. When he left, everything was taken away. He couldn't even complain, and he couldn't get everything back.
All the bad things stem from being kidnapped. This kind of nobles have no good impression of the so-called Kingdom of Saint Laurent. The most fierce nobles are simply unwilling to set foot on that land.
The Kingdom of Saint Laurent mostly practiced slavery before. Those slave owners only cared about their own lives and exploited the slaves, without thinking about the development of the entire kingdom. As a result, the Kingdom of Saint Laurent was the most backward place among the kingdoms.
The Kingdom of Saint Laurent also has good places, that is, the place where the slave nobles originally lived. However, due to the war, the best places were smashed and robbed. The original site was covered with many bones, causing it to be abandoned.
.
It can be said that the territory of the abandoned kingdom was not favored by the so-called nobles. They basically still lived in the original place, and there was no order established by the nobles on the ruins.
It can be said that this place does not have the protection of the real nobles, which is why the blond beauty wants to restore the country. It is a good place for the blond beauty with little resistance.
