Chapter 25 The One and Only Collection
Ximen Jinlian listened quietly, and felt that these legendary stories about gambling stones were very interesting, and seemed to be more wonderful than those novels written in the books.
It's just that when she heard Lin Xuanlan mention that someone had cut out a piece of Fu Lu Shou's glass jade, she immediately became interested and hurriedly asked, "What is Fu Lu Shou?" β
Lin Xuanlan smiled: "You always know the lucky star, Lu star, and birthday star of folklore, right?" β
Ximen Jinlian nodded again and again, no matter how lonely and unheard of is, he also knows the three stars of Fuxing, Luxing, and Shouxing.
"When the folk shape the golden body of these three immortals, they generally use red, green and yellow respectively, and the jadeite is also gorgeous and colorful. Lin Xuanlan explained.
When Ximen Jinlian heard this, she couldn't help but be moved, she had seen the cold and compelling color of the bright green glass, and it really made her almost feel like she couldn't put it down, and red and yellow were in the same place, so what would happen?
Lin Xuanlan saw that she didn't speak, and said with a smile: "In fact, if the requirements are not too high, it is not uncommon to see two-color or other three-color, but it is good to grow water, after all, there are a few." β
"Huh? What other tri-colors? Ximen Jinlian was interested this time and asked busily.
"Of course!" Lin Xuanlan said with a smile, "If you want red, green and yellow to be one, and the color transition is perfect, and the color is distinct, it's really hard to find, but sometimes there are yellow and green colors, but there are also yellow, green and purple colors, which can also be called Fu Lu Shou." β
"Soβhas there ever been a four-colored, or five-colored?" Ximen Jinlian asked curiously, since there is this so-called Fu Lu Shou, it can be seen that it is not impossible for four colors or five colors to appear, by the way, when I first watched the Dream of Red Mansions, I once saw the piece of jade with Baoyu written on it, isn't it colorful and crystalline? Maybe it's the best five-color jadeite?
"The four-color one is called Fulu Suki, and naturally there are them, but they are more difficult to find, and the colorful ones, I have only heard of them, even if they barely make up the color, if the color is not pure enough, and the water is not good enough, it is not the best." Lin Xuanlan said.
"So, jadeite is still mainly green?" Ximen Jinlian smiled, no wonder almost all of the ones sold on the market are green, and other colors are not common.
"There are red ones, jade jade! Fei means red, while emerald means green. Influenced by traditional Chinese culture, jadeite is naturally honored with green, but if you can find a bright red jadeite in glass, it is absolutely eye-catching to make the legendary blood jade bracelet. Lin Xuanlan explained.
"That's right!" When Ximen Jinlian heard this, she fantasized about the bright red jade in her heart, and wondered if it was just like the sunset in the western sky, gorgeous and dazzling, and radiant?
"In addition, there are several colors such as violet, blue water, and bright yellow, which are rare in jadeite." Lin Xuanlan explained.
"At the end of the day, it's still rare to be expensive!" Ximen Jinlian chuckled, no matter what it is, the less it is, the more valuable it is. As he spoke, he was a little envious in his heart, if he could collect the best jadeite of various colors and make all kinds of jewelry, what kind of colorful and dazzling would it be?
"Golden lotus, don't look at the common green jadeite, almost all of the ones sold on the market are green, but the legendary imperial green in the green, which is commonly known as emerald, is also the best in jadeite, almost as rare as blue water, bright yellow and other colors." Lin Xuanlan was busy explaining again.
"Emeralds?" Ximen Jinlian began to think in her heart, what kind of green is the emerald? More dazzling than bright green? More verdant? More crystal clear, cold and compelling?
"My grandfather has an emerald bracelet in his collection, and I will take you to see it when I am free in the future!" Lin Xuanlan smiled, "My grandfather has several collections!" β
"Your family runs a jewelry company, and your grandfather has a lot of private collections, so it's not unusual." Ximen Jinlian smiled, "What about you? Don't you have some private collections? β
"I don't have any personal collections!" Lin Xuanlan shook his head and said, "The company is not mine, even if you have money, it is not up to me to decide, not to mention - you are right, our family runs a jewelry company, I can't look down on ordinary things, and I can't afford to collect good things, my grandfather has become his private collection, and what he can't look at, he has to ......sell it" Speaking of this, I don't know why, he couldn't help but sigh softly, "In fact, the pair of bracelets you gave me should be my only collection." β
"I thought you'd sell it!" Ximen Jinlian smiled a little embarrassedly, she didn't think of this, yes, a jewelry company, even if it is family-owned, categorically can't allow some people to hide tens of millions of jewelry in the safe, instead of selling it.
"How can I give it up?" Lin Xuanlan chuckled, as soon as the words came out, she seemed to feel that something was wrong, she said a little too much, and she was busy explaining again, "You know, I like jadeite very much, seeing such a beautiful bright green glass bracelet, there is usually no way, since I can keep it for myself, how can I be willing to sell it?" Once sold, you may never find such a bright green glass bracelet again. Jin Lian, you don't know how lucky you are today. But, in general, I still have to thank you, if I bought this jadeite wool, I would definitely not be able to collect a pair of bracelets openly. β
"Why?" Ximen Jinlian asked puzzledly, why couldn't he buy a pair of bracelets for collection?
"What I bought naturally belongs to the company's public ownership, how can I collect it privately?" Lin Xuanlan shook her head and said, "My family is responsible for purchasing wool, including jadeite processing and other matters, but as for marketing, I am not in charge." β
"Haven't you thought that you can buy good jadeite wool and collect it privately after processing?" Ximen Jinlian said with a smile.
"The problem is, so far, I haven't bought enough good jadeite raw materials that make me tempted and cheap enough to be hidden! Like the piece of clear material you cut today, if I buy it, how can I hide it? Lin Xuanlan said with a smile.
Ximen Jinlian couldn't help but smile when she heard this: "What a pitiful look you say!" β
"Am I already pitiful!" Lin Xuanlan deliberately pretended to be innocent and smiled, "The company belongs to my grandfather, and I also work part-time." β
"It's not all yours in the future, what's the hurry? Your grandfather's collection, company or something, can he still take it away when he returns to the mountains in the future? Ximen Jinlian said.
