Chapter 1547: Multi-purpose arm guards
This shoulder pad is really good.
At this time, Baili and Yechui's claws did not shrink, but firmly grasped the shoulder pads, almost diving into the cowhide, but because of the ingenious workmanship, the cowhide will not be scratched, and it is very comfortable. Zhang Tianyuan really wants to take this with him, and it will be much more convenient to take Baili and Night Cry out in the future.
Dragon, that pattern is too eye-catching, Zhang Tianyuan feels that he can't control it.
"How about Brother Zhang, this thing is not bad, although I think my grandfather's technology is outdated, but the quality of his technology is absolutely fine, it is really good and cheap." The little fat man leaned over and asked.
"Well, things are good things, and the technology is also very good, to be honest, I haven't seen other protective gear, so it's not easy to compare, but this protective gear made by the old man, I really like it, it's pretty good, I guess in the past, it was also considered a master level, right?"
Zhang Tianyuan didn't know if his evaluation was appropriate, but he really liked this thing, the only drawback was that it was too gorgeous, and it was too eye-catching, he thought it was better to have arm pads, of course, it could also be called elbow pads, this kind of thing is much better if it is not so eye-catching.
Of course, in modern society, no one will do anything to you even if you dress as a monster, and now there are a lot of people wearing strange costumes on the streets, and there are many people who like to play cosplay.
It's just that other people's opinions can not be cared about. But if you can't pass this level psychologically, then you can't do it.
"Old man, this thing should have been made for those Eight Banners disciples to wear. But can they wear this dragon casually?"
"Wrong, wrong, this is not for the children of the Eight Banners. It was for those local tyrants in the early days of opening up. At that time, animal protection was not as strict as it is now. Many people also like to boil eagles, these people just made some money, and they are very tyrants, they like such patterns, but unfortunately, this period lasts too short, and the things I make are too strong, basically buy a piece that is likely to wait for the eagle to die, and the thing is fine. So I made a lot of it, but I didn't sell much. But at that time, there was still money to be made, but now it can't be made......"
"So that's the case, is there a more restrained, less heroic arm guard, I don't want a shoulder pad, it's too strange to wear that thing. Zhang Tianyuan thought for a while.
"Of course there are arm pads, but we usually call them elbow pads, and people in TV and movies use this. Take a look at this one. This is the most expensive of all, three thousand yuan!" The old man took out an elbow pad to show Zhang Tianyuan, and when he took it out, Zhang Tianyuan was shocked. He said before that he wanted to be low-key and introverted, but he didn't expect this to be low-key and introverted, but the materials used in this thing. Still surprised him.
"This is something woven from black bear skin and purple gold thread?" However, after reading it with the word appreciation formula, Zhang Tianyuan understood. This thing doesn't look so gorgeous, there are not even patterns and patterns on it, but the materials used are very special.
Purple gold is an alloy that combines various elements such as gold, copper, iron, and nickel. Russia is its main production area, and the rest are also distributed in Turkey and other countries, but Russia's purple gold is the most famous in the world, especially Russia's vast land and abundant purple gold deposits.
In addition to the natural purple gold in Russia, there is also an artificial purple gold, which is produced with a high technology, which is to add metals such as palladium or aluminum to the gold, and the chemical reaction produces a purple effect, which contains 80% pure gold. This purple gold was developed in Singapore in 2000 and contains slightly more gold than 18K gold.
Among gold jewelry, purple gold is one of the most European. Unlike gold and platinum, purple gold has a gold content of 58.5 percent, high hardness and bright color. Finished products, such as rings, earrings, bracelets, and other social events in the upper European societies, are symbols of prestige, wealth, and good taste. And as the wearing time will become brighter and brighter, there is no need to go to a professional gold store for cleaning.
And the purple gold thread used by the old man for this protective gear is a natural purple gold, not artificial purple gold, so it is even more precious.
It's daytime, and you can faintly see some shine on the armguard, but it won't be too conspicuous.
In addition to these, there are fluffy things made of mink fur at the front and back ends of the elbow pads, and those who don't know will think they are warm sleeves when they look at them, so they don't feel too eye-catching when worn on their arms.
The mink fur should be bonded, and it is very strong, Zhang Tianyuan tried to pull it, and he could clearly feel the adhesive force, which was quite good.
This thing should have been made for a long time, because mink fur and mink fur are not easy to get now, because the management is relatively strict, there are animal protection organizations to block, and the protection of the corresponding national laws, it is really not easy to make such a thing again.
It's the same with black bear skin, it's not easy to get it right now.
"Well, this thing is not only good in craftsmanship, but also very particular in materials. Old man, I didn't come to the wrong place this time, Mr. Gu said that your skills are good, I was still skeptical before, after all, I had never seen this thing before, so I always had some doubts in my heart, but now I feel relieved when I look at it, you are always really capable. There's no one who can do this now, right?"
"That's right, if it's just craftsmanship, I'm okay, it's a whole piece of leather sewn together, and there is not the slightest trace of stitching, as if it was the way it was, and as for the technique of nitrate leather, I will also do it. But the problem is that it is very difficult for you to get this black bear skin and mink skin now, and it is not easy to get the natural fine purple gold thread, so it is really impossible to make such a thing. The old man didn't brag, but told the truth.
In fact, the more he said this, the more Zhang Tianyuan felt that this thing was precious, because there was no other thing in the world, people who collect antiques know that there is a saying called "rare things are expensive", no matter what it is, once the scarcity reaches a certain level, it will be very valuable, if one day, there are only a dozen nasty mosquitoes left, then I believe that someone will include mosquitoes in the ranks of protected animals, after all, mosquito genes are still very precious things.
"I won't steal this nitrate method and production process, anyway, it's useless for me to learn, you can teach your grandson, although this craft is not popular now, but there is still a market, at least I definitely need it, after he learns, as long as he can do it, and he doesn't have to catch up with your old craft, anyway, I think it's difficult to catch up." ”
Zhang Tianyuan has actually learned the production method of this thing through imitation words, as long as there are materials, he should be able to make something similar to seven or eight points, but he feels that there is no need for that, there are many technologies in this world, if he wants to learn everything, then he Zhang Tianyuan should be exhausted.
If this little fat man really can't learn his grandfather's skills, then Zhang Tianyuan plans to find a few people from his vocational school to learn, this elbow pad may not be simply used to boil eagles, it can be used many times, the key is to see whether the person's brain is flexible or not, whether he can find the right use.
He didn't bother with it.
"It seems that Mr. Xiao likes these two elbow pads very much, then you can wear them and try it, if it is suitable, two pieces will give one piece of money, after all, this thing was originally only one, I was interested, I made a total of two, and you just happened to have two eagles, which is matching." "The happiest thing for the old man is that the things he makes have an owner, which is the most important thing, as for money, to be honest, if it weren't for saving a few dollars for his grandson to marry his daughter-in-law, he would really be able to give all this thing to Zhang Tianyuan.
After all, if someone uses such a thing, it is valuable, and if no one uses it, its own value will be lost, even if the thing is good, it doesn't make much sense.
"I'll talk about the price later, I'll try it first. Zhang Tianyuan has his own ideas in his heart, and it is not for the old man to sway, so he doesn't talk about the price now, but just wants to see if this thing is easy to use.
If it's just a matter of gold and jade, then it's not interesting.
This arm guard is unfolded and it is a long hexagonal piece of leather, but after wrapping it around the arm, the buckle of the two sections of the arm guard is buckled, and it feels the right position, it is a very good arm guard, even if it is not boiled eagle, this thing has a warm effect on the arm, and it is not heavy, in case someone stabs himself with a knife, this thing can also directly block the knife.
Baili and Nightcry's claws are sharper than knives, and if even their claws can't scratch this thing, then knives are even more impossible.
Also, if you encounter a beast coming to bite it, this thing can still block the other party's teeth, so it is absolutely safe.
Ordinary people may not think it is very useful, but don't forget that Zhang Tianyuan often goes out on adventures, this is really a feeling of a multi-purpose tool, and more importantly, after wearing it on the arm, it looks very beautiful and generous, and it will not be too dazzling.
It was just perfect!
This is Zhang Tianyuan's most direct feeling at this moment.
After buttoning the button and fixing the arm guard firmly, Zhang Tianyuan deliberately shook it a few times, and found that it was really almost impossible to feel the weight, and it would not be thrown out, it was really like wearing a sleeve, and it was more beautiful than the ordinary sleeve.
"Baili, you come up and try it first, I'll see how good the quality of this thing is......" (to be continued......)
