Chapter Eighty-Four: The Pearls Are Round and Jade
Boss Luo picked up the small wooden box on the table, and before he opened it, he was stunned by the magic skills of the box, and he touched the box in his hand stupidly, but he couldn't even speak.
"Mrs. Lin, this box is so valuable, I'm afraid of the contents inside...... More precious, right? ”
After a long time, Boss Luo finally raised his head and looked at Mrs. Lin with a solemn expression.
The box in his hand was painted red as a whole, bright like blood in the sunlight, and it was inlaid with ruby green agate of different sizes, and it was carved with a whole piece of mutton fat white jade at the place of the buckle, which was smooth and silky in the sun, and it was a first-class product at first sight; What's even more amazing is that there is no trace of carving in the whole box, as if it was born naturally!
This box is so precious, and it is even more incredible to think about the things inside, but looking at the quality of this box, it should also be an old thing, at least twenty years of time, but Mrs. Lin has such a difficult life, where did she get such a treasure?
Boss Luo naturally wouldn't ask such a question in person to embarrass Mrs. Lin, so he just admired it for a while and began to get down to business.
Mrs. Lin listened to Boss Luo's question, smiled reluctantly, and muttered, "It's not so valuable, it's just that I've been with me for a long time, so naturally I can't bear it." ”
Boss Luo didn't poke it when he heard this, but just smiled honestly, raised his hand and gently opened the box in his hand, only to see that there was a piece of fine shark yarn inside, and on top was a gold-inlaid white jade hairpin, with a longan-sized turquoise jade bead embedded on the top, and the water head was excellent. The beads hanging down the hairpin head are finely carved crystal beads, and the whole jade hairpin looks low-key and luxurious. It's a rare boutique.
It's just that...... Boss Luo glanced at Mrs. Lin suspiciously, although he didn't understand where her precious jewelry came from. But this one piece of pearl hairpin can't compare to that more expensive box? How did you come up with the idea of using such a box to preserve such a piece of jewelry......
Seeing that Boss Luo was a little confused, Mrs. Lin had to say sincerely, "This pearl hairpin is of great significance to me, and I hope Boss Luo can help me repair it and restore it to its original ......."
Boss Luo saw that Mrs. Lin said this, and he was not entangled in the preciousness of the box and the hairpin, but carefully picked up the hosta in the box, and at this time, the jade bead on the top of the hosta rolled down. Boss Luo was instantly shocked into a cold sweat, but fortunately, the jade bead fell into the wooden box covered with shark yarn, so it didn't break.
"Mrs. Lin, I'm ......" Boss Luo was about to apologize, but Mrs. Lin waved her hand indifferently, frowned and said softly, "Boss Luo, this is the bad place, I don't know if it can be fixed?" ”
Boss Luo didn't care when he saw that Mrs. Lin didn't care. So I carefully turned over the hairpin in my hand and looked at it over and over again, especially the place where the jade bead fell off for a long time, and in the end. I couldn't help but praise it, "Such a skill! It's amazing! ”
Mrs. Lin looked at Boss Luo's excited appearance in confusion and asked in a low voice. "But what's the trouble?"
"No, no, no......" Boss Luo waved his hand again and again, and his voice was high. Incoherently said, "It's just this mosaic." But it's hard to see in the world! I've never seen such an ingenious setting in my life! ”
Mrs. Lin was dumbfounded, although her face was pale, but it was much better than before, "This hairpin is indeed rare in the world, and there were only two such hairpins in the world back then." ”
Boss Luo gently put down the hosta in his hand, calmed down, beckoned the maid waiting at the flower gallery to come over, and whispered a few words, then turned his head to look at Mrs. Shu, and explained leisurely, "Mrs. Lin, you have to wait for the best craftsman in the workshop, if he can't help it, then ...... There's nothing I can do about it. ”
The craftsmanship of this hairpin is something that Boss Luo has never seen, so he is not sure if the people in the workshop can repair it intact, the craftsmanship of the craftsmen in Luo Zhenfang can be said to be the first in this dynasty, and no one can replace it, so if there is no way to even Luo Zhenfang, then there is really no one in this world who has a way.
Mrs. Lin bowed her head slightly, her eyes were slightly condensed, she turned her head to look at the jade beads that fell from the delicate wooden box on the table, stared for a long time and slowly lowered her head.
Boss Luo withdrew his peeking gaze, and slowly lowered his head by drinking tea, feeling very puzzled.
This Lin matchmaker is just a poor woman's daughter, and now she only makes a living by helping people to be a matchmaker, but she is so gentle and polite, even those ladies in Linshan County do not have her temperament, if it is not for the fact that people are old and yellow now, it is conceivable that when she was young, she was more popular with young men, but she was a widow with Lin Mei's hardships, why is this?
Although Boss Luo was puzzled, he would not be embarrassed to ask it, so he felt very uncomfortable.
After a while, the pink-clothed maid invited the most skilled craftsman in Luo Zhenfang, and Mrs. Lin glanced up at the young strong man, only to see that he had a sloppy beard and thick hands, which really made people think of how such a reckless man made those exquisite jewelry.
"Mrs. Lin, this is Zheng Gang of our Luo Zhenfang, his craftsmanship is the best in Luo Zhenfang, if even he can't do it, then I can only say that I can't help it." Although Boss Luo said this, his words were full of joy, after all, it was just a small bead, no matter how difficult the guy Zheng Gang did, it was just self-humility.
Mrs. Lin nodded, and then pushed the small wooden box on the table to the front along with the jade hairpin inside, just enough to stop in front of Zheng Gang, and then Wen Yan said, "Then trouble Craftsman Zheng." ”
"Mrs. Lin is polite." Zheng Gang seemed to be very taciturn, and after replying to Mrs. Lin's words, he took the box and said nothing, if it was another craftsman, I was afraid that he would have patted his ass in front of the boss and said good things.
Boss Luo seemed to have long been accustomed to Zheng Gang's attitude, poured himself a cup of tea and sipped it gently, and exchanged a few words with Mrs. Lin from time to time, so she was complacent.
After a long while, Zheng Gang raised his head and put the bead hairpin back in his hand, his face a little solemn.
"Mrs. Lin, you ...... I'm afraid that there will be some trouble. ”
Mrs. Lin was drinking tea, but when she heard this, her hand holding the tea couldn't help but shake, and she almost spilled the hot tea in the cup, "I don't know what's the trouble?" ”
"Mrs. Lin, look here......" Zheng Gang held the jade bead in his hand in front of Mrs. Lin, the jade bead was smooth and round, and the water head was also excellent, so Mrs. Lin frowned a little puzzled, and just as she was about to speak, Zheng Gang said again, "There is no trace on it, so how did the craftsman inlay it in the beginning?" ”
Hearing this, Mrs. Lin and Boss Luo were both shocked. (To be continued......)
