096 Guests
Early the next morning, a dark green luxury Rolls-Royce sedan was in the courtyard of Lemon Manor, followed by a man in a white robe with a white turban on his head.
After he got out of the car, two young boys who were also dressed in the same clothes were pulled out of the car by a blonde Caucasian woman wearing a tulle turban, and judging by the child's appearance and expression, this woman should be the mother of the children.
"Welcome, welcome." When the four guests got out of the car, Liang En did not use English or the newly learned Italian, but greeted them in Arabic, which he had learned before.
"Welcome to my Lemon Estate, I've got what you want to see, and I hope our meeting today will leave a good impression on you and his family."
"God, your Arabic is as good as your mother tongue." After listening to Liang En's words, the Emirati billionaire named Ahmadi had a surprised expression on his face.
Because among the many languages in the world, spoken Arabic is one of the more difficult to learn. There are even foreigners who try to learn Arabic who have had to have surgery on their tongues in order to make their accents more authentic.
But even so, the vast majority of foreigners who learn Arabic can still hear the spoken language as soon as they hear it, so it is the Arabic that Liang's standard and even some ancient pronunciation makes this Ahmadi so surprised.
"Thank you for the compliment, please come with me." Liang En bowed slightly, and then got into the battery car driven by Peter with them and drove towards the castle on the hill.
Ten minutes later, the guests sat in the living room of the castle and drank black tea. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liang En took out the spice boxes that had been sorted out from the house next to him.
This box is one of the more satisfying pieces of jewelry made by Liang En, which combines oriental jewelry making techniques such as filigree, enamel, and engraving, as well as Western jewelry making techniques such as gold weaving and carved gemstones.
Liang En blends these techniques perfectly, using gold, silver and gemstones to create a beautiful miniature gem garden on this box.
"Look, that's the spice I'm going to sell this time, and the best of them are these, including two pieces of chinan, six small pieces of ambergris, and these beaver incense—"
With a slight rotation of a small mechanism, a golden enamel bud gradually opened, and at the same time the lid flicked open slightly, revealing the wooden box separated by a partition inside, and then he opened the box to reveal the spices inside.
"These spices come from the most natural regions, and I've chosen them, so you'll find them with a great texture, and I think they're good enough to use in the palace."
"I agree with that." After picking up a wooden box, opening it, and sniffing it, Mr. Ahmadi nodded in satisfaction and praised. "Even that piece of Qinan is better than most of the same spices in the palace."
"I'm glad to hear you compliment my spices like that." Liang En smiled, and then took out a few silver cans the size of old-fashioned instant coffee cans from the side.
Unlike the previous openwork gold box, the five silver jars are sealed, but the decoration on the top is no less than that of the large gold box, which is inlaid with gold and gemstone figurines, turning the whole jar into a jewel like a gold box.
"It's yellow ripe incense." After unscrewing the lid of a silver jar, Liang introduced the spices contained in the jar. "Although it is nowhere near as expensive as the spices before it, their quality is just as good."
"Indeed, these spices of yours are of the same quality as they are cherished and common, and it's been a long time since I've seen so many top-notch spices at the same time."
Ahmadi seemed to be particularly pleased with the spices this time, but strangely he seemed a little absent-minded in the later stages of the transaction, as if the focus was not here.
Soon after, the two sides negotiated the spice deal for 870,000 euros, and when the deal was over, Ahmadi asked where the containers that Liang used to hold the spice samples came from.
For in the short time it took to arouse the desire for these jewels, the gold boxes and silver jars would naturally try to pay for them if they wanted.
"I made it." Liang En raised his head slightly, after all, the reason why he used these gold and silver containers to hold spices was because he had the idea of pushing out these jewels that he was made of.
"Are these your works?" Ahmadi was really shocked, although he didn't know how to make jewelry, but as a rich man, he naturally saw a lot of the top luxury goods. Nature knows how difficult it is to make these luxuries.
"Yes, my studio is in the cellar below the castle, and most of my work is in it, so you can go and see it if you want."
Obviously, curiosity is a common trait of human beings, so at the invitation of Liang, Ahmadi and his family followed him to the jewelry atelier located below the castle.
Unlike the few pieces of jewelry scattered above, there are a lot of jewels in the jewelry studio, and in addition to a series of scattered jewels, the most striking thing is a complete set of jewelry.
This set of jewelry is a pure Chinese style jewelry, but it also incorporates a lot of Western and even Indian jewelry making techniques, making these jewelry more fashionable while retaining the traditional Chinese style.
For example, a large number of colored gemstones are used in this set of jewelry, which is not the traditional style of China, but it is most in line with the theme of the Dragon Palace chosen by Liang En for this set of jewelry.
After all, the Dragon Palace gives people the impression of resplendent gold, and it is easiest to use gold and colored gemstones to create that kind of magnificent scene.
"I call this set of jewels the Dream of the Dragon Palace, and the Dragon Palace refers to the palace where the ancient Chinese dragon kings lived, which is considered to be the most gorgeous palace in the world, and my set of jewels also embodies the concept of luxury to the extreme—"
Many people may think that it is easy to make a luxurious piece of jewelry, just pile up as many expensive raw materials as possible to make the jewelry look valuable, but in reality, this is not the case.
Because if there is no exquisite design, simply piling up those precious materials will make the final design look like a grocery store, and it will not show any sense of luxury at all.
Luckily, Liang En's current technique was obtained through the Essence of Qi Luck, plus he had visited the real Dragon Palace, so when making this jewelry, he could be said to have played 120% of his level.
So when Liang En showed this set of jewelry, the eyes of the four guests present were straight, and after the shock, Ahmadi directly pointed to this set of jewelry and expressed his desire to buy it.
"500,000 euros, I'm willing to pay 500,000 euros for this set. In addition, if you are willing to sell me this set of jewelry, I am also willing to help you participate in jewelry competitions so that more people can appreciate its beauty—"
