Chapter 616 [Chess and Go]
Next, I entered the last two boxes of the treasure hunt and excavation activity, and I barely managed to make these two boxes the last two items that were made.
Yang Nianzhong took out a rectangular box with a height of only 20 centimeters, like a book, and after opening it, he saw that it was actually a folded chessboard, which was not the point, the focus was on the material of the chessboard.
Other people's chessboard is better carved with huanghuali and red sandalwood, and this chessboard has reached the point of extreme luxury, what kind of carved chessboard is used? It's actually sapphire.
You read that right, it's blue crystal, pure natural blue, a chessboard carved from crystal. Even the impurities in the crystal can be seen clearly, but in the transparent place, the pure blue is as clear as the sea.
Yang Nianzhong loves like a treasure, and picks up the blue crystal carved chessboard and shines it on the light, and in the middle of the blue crystal chessboard is placed chess pieces, one of these chess pieces is no more than 2.5 cm in diameter, and it is a chess chess piece carved with the best emerald in the old pit jade in Myanmar.
The other half of the chess pieces are actually carved from red jadeite, which is the same as the emerald chess pieces, the same size, and the same thickness.
Yang Nianzhong gently opened the chessboard carved from blue crystal, took out the chess pieces inside one by one, and then placed them on the chessboard carved from blue crystal and illuminated them with lights.
But the size of this set of chess is too small, the diameter of the chess pieces does not exceed 2.5 cm, like a slightly larger bottle cap, but the carving is very exquisite, the materials are extremely exquisite, are the top emeralds and jadeite.
To be honest, Yang Nianzhong just knows the way of moving Chinese chess, such as the horse walking, the sun elephant walking, the small cannon fighting across the mountain, and the pawn crossing the river and arching down vigorously.
When I was younger, I used to play chess with my mother, but the chess pieces were made of wood, and they snapped on the lacquer board, and the mother and son used chess to kill him in the dark, which was a great feeling.
But do you dare to take this chess piece carved from jade and smash it on the chessboard carved from blue crystal? Whether it is a crack in the chess piece or the chessboard, or a piece of ballast is knocked off, a chess piece carved from a natural gemstone is considered to be wasted.
So when you play this chess deck, you have to be careful to handle it gently, and to be honest, you don't have the pleasure of playing chess. It looks tired, but Yang Nianzhong is willing to be so tired, if anyone has this crystal chessboard, the jade wolfberry will cherish it as much as Yang Nianzhong.
If you break it, it's a big loss, are you playing chess? Or is it a pleasure to lose $10,000? If you really can't do it, you can spend a lot of money to buy a pair of ivory chess pieces and drop them casually, so that you can also live the addiction of playing chess.
Why bother with this set of jade chess? Why bother to take a chessboard carved with blue crystal? If you put the jade chess and the blue crystal together like this, Yang Nianzhong is really not at ease.
Although the chess and chessboard are combined, there is no space for gaps and collisions, Yang Nianzhong is still not at ease, what to do He returned to his room, used the buckwheat husk pillow prepared for him by Robert's butler, and poured the buckwheat husk into the middle of the jade chess pieces on the blue crystal chessboard after opening it to prevent them from colliding with each other.
The pillow is gone, so what pillow does Yang Nianzhong sleep on at night? Yang Nianzhong didn't care about this, Yang Nianzhong cared about the safety of this set of chess, seeing that Yang Nianzhong actually destroyed his pillow, the big bear and Adams on the side wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.
They have been with Yang Nianzhong for so long, what kind of living habits Yang Nianzhong has, don't they know? Yang Nianzhong's living habits are different from those of those Chinese who grew up in the United States, and when Yang Nianzhong sleeps, he likes my pillow not to be soft goose feather pillows, but comfortable and cool buckwheat husks.
Therefore, all members of the Yang family know that Yang Nianzhong has such a habit when sleeping, the pillow is buckwheat husk, and if Yang Nianzhong is in other pillows, he will feel that his head is very hot and he can't sleep.
I didn't expect Yang Nianzhong to sacrifice all the artifacts he slept on, but you can imagine how much Yang Nianzhong cares about this set of chess, it is simply spoiled to the sky, and the spoiling is boundless.
Finally covered 1/10 of the buckwheat husk in his pillow with the air of these jade chess pieces, then closed the chessboard and put it in the box, and put the other box and the last box, and took it to the coffee table and opened it to see that Yang Nianzhong no longer had the strength to be surprised.
And Adams and Nobita on the side gasped, and a chessboard appeared in the box, and this chessboard was actually carved from amethyst, but the height of the chessboard was much higher than that of the chess board, and the grid on it was dense.
At this time, Big Bear exposed the amethyst chessboard from the inside of the box, and then opened the mechanism, which opened the lid of the box, after opening the square-shaped amethyst chessboard.
On the table, there was a 10-centimeter high-standard Go board, and after pulling out two white cylindrical things from the board, I opened it to see that it was actually a jar carved of ivory for holding flags.
And these chess pieces were felt by Yang Nianzhong, who was surprised that they were as white as jade, as black as ink, Yang Nianzhong picked up the black and white chess pieces and shone them with a flashlight. The white one transmits the light through the chess pieces, and the black one can see the dark green color, but there is a green halo like an emerald jade on the edges.
At this time, Yang Nianzhong, his mother screamed and didn't look back, filled his room on the second floor, and then ran down with his laptop in his arms. In the pockets of Big Bear and Adams Morden, they put the computer on the other side of the coffee table, and then a documentary fell out on it.
This documentary records the production method of this set of Go discovered by Yang Nian, this set of Go is called Yongzi Go, whether it is a black chess piece or a white chess piece, it is not carved from natural gemstones, but fired at high temperature.
The raw materials for firing these Yongzi Go are all natural gemstones, and then after crushing and firing at high temperatures, a small spoon is used to drop the melted red liquid on the iron plate, and the tension of the liquid is used to let it slowly spread and then cool, and after cooling, it is knocked down to become Yongzi Go.
Natural gemstones are precious enough, and the cost of using natural gemstones as raw materials to fire Go can be imagined. There are many board games in the world, but there is no board game in the world that makes chess pieces as complex as Yongzi Go.
Yongzi Go is not a gem, but it is better than a gem because it is a Go piece made of precious stones, in other words, this pair of Yongzi Go is much more precious than those chess pieces carved from jade.
This documentary, which records the production process of Yongzi Go, finally made the big bear and Adams on the side finally understand why Yang Nianzhong was so excited, and why he was so excited that he called Mamma Mia.
These two people have gone completely crazy, they didn't expect that the white and black Go chess pieces were actually fired at high temperatures, and the raw materials were all kinds of gems, and there was such a wave of operations, which simply refreshed the outlook on life and values of Big Bear and Adams.
