The next morning, Jiang Qiuyun went to the Lu family's mountainside villa, looked around inside and out, and felt satisfied in her heart. She thought to herself: "The house is spacious enough, the environment is elegant, and it is quiet and peaceful. When the weather is good, you can bask in the sun in the garden. Able to hold up a computer and write.”
She walked into the basement and found Lu Cheng cutting stones.
"Huh? Do you really want to be a jade carver? When did you buy so many equipment?"
"I bought some rough stones in Guangzhou, one weighing 70 kilograms, and gave it to Linlang Pavilion for processing. There were also a few smaller ones that I brought back. I will cut them out now to see if there is any jade inside."
"Then you cut slowly and I'll watch for a while."
Lu Cheng asked with a smile: "You went to the Magic City book signing event, but you don't have a suitable necklace yet, right? I'll prepare it for you."
He took out the finished products sent by Linlang Pavilion last time and said: "You can pick these things yourself. You can take whatever you like! Necklaces, bracelets, and earrings are all finished products. The rings need to be set in the store."
Jiang Qiuyun said happily: "Wow, you have so many treasures?"
"The color of these jadeite is very good, but it is only high-quality jadeite, not glass type, so it is not considered the best."
"It's already amazing! If it were put up for auction, it would probably be no less than a violet bracelet."
Everyone's psychology is different. Some people like emerald green, while others like violet. So when it comes to auction, it's hard to say the final price.
No matter how you put it, the jadeite that was touched by Lu Cheng's hands all contained the beauty of heaven and earth, and had a special enchanting effect that made people fall in love with it at first sight!
Jiang Qiuyun was no exception. She felt very good when she picked up one, and she felt very good when she picked up another one. She felt like she couldn't put it down.
"Lu Cheng, I'm spoiled for choice and can't pick one out, what should I do?"
"Then just take two!"
At this time, Lu Cheng polished a rough stone as big as a fist and rinsed it with water, revealing the emerald green color.
"Haha, I have a good eye, and this piece has also gone up in price. I can cut out a pendant the size of a pigeon egg! And it's the old glass type! Unfortunately, the color is too light! It's still not the best."
Jiang Qiuyun turned around to look, her eyes could not help but shine, and she praised: "Lu Cheng, you are so awesome! If this is polished well, it will be eligible for auction."
Lu Cheng smiled slightly and said, "This is not the real meaning of my research on jade."
"Where? Tell me."
"Come and see!"
He took out an amulet, found a hammer, and walked out of the basement into the yard.
There are several large stones in the garden that decorate the landscape.
Among them is a piece of Daishan stone weighing half a ton.
Lu Cheng placed the amulet on the stone, handed the hammer to Jiang Qiuyun, and said, "You smash it!"
Jiang Qiuyun took a closer look and found that it was an inch-large white jade with many patterns carved on it. She asked, "It's such a good jade, why should I smash it?"
Lu Cheng said: "This is the amulet I made myself. Please try to see if you can smash it."
"What material is it made of?"
"Hetian jade mountain material."
"Is this expensive?"
“It’s not too expensive, 3,000 yuan per kilogram!”
"Then I really broke it?"
"Use all your strength and hit it hard!"
Jiang Qiuyun took a breath, lifted the hammer, and asked hesitantly: "Will there be broken jade splashing? What if it hurts my face?"
Lu Cheng smiled: "No, just hit it as hard as you can!"
Jiang Qiuyun looked at the hammer and felt that the surface of the hammer was very large and could completely cover the jade pieces, so the pieces of jade would not fly around.
So she swung her hammer and smashed it down.
However, after the hammer fell, the jade piece remained intact, not even a little damaged!
"Huh? Didn't it smash it? What happened?"
Lu Cheng said: "The strength you used is too small. It can only weigh 100 kilograms at most." He took the hammer and said, "I am strong. If I hit it with this hammer, it will weigh at least 1,000 kilograms!" He said "bang". Get down!
However, even so, the amulet remained intact.
Jiang Qiuyun looked a little dazed and asked, "Is there really an impact of 1,000 pounds?"
Lu Cheng nodded, picked up the jade talisman, and said, "I have tested it. Its protection strength is about 2,500 kilograms, and its protection range is one and a half meters. As long as it is within this range, it is basically invulnerable!"
"Ah? How is this possible? Lu Cheng, don't lie to me!"
"What did I lie to you for? In addition, I made you a jade waist pendant, using the seeds of mutton-fat white jade. According to my estimation, the protective power can be doubled."
He returned to the basement, brought out a nice-looking belt, handed it to Jiang Qiuyun, and said, "This is a mutton-fat white jade belt buckle. You buckle it on your belt and protect it from head to toe!"
Jiang Qiuyun took the belt, touched it in her hand, and felt a warm and comfortable feeling, and asked: "Hetian jade like this is of higher quality and must not be cheap, right?"
Lu Cheng smiled: "Don't worry about the price. The worst is, I will auction another bracelet."
To be honest, Hetian jade seeds are really expensive!
To make this waistband, Lu Cheng spent 3 million! A total of 72 grams, more than 40,000 yuan per gram!
So he thought, if possible, he would go to Hotan as soon as possible and find some materials by himself.
Jiang Qiuyun fumbled with her waistband and asked, "Why does it have protective power?"
Lu Cheng said: "Because there are runes carved on it! They are the words that your father wants to learn. Come, I will teach you the runes and a few movements. You go back and practice slowly. You can strengthen your body, promote blood circulation and beautify your face, and you will be free from diseases. disaster."
"Is it really as amazing as you say?"
"Try it. If you want to be a writer and sit in front of the computer for half a day, you need to practice Qigong and activate your blood circulation. I will teach you the 'White Ape Arm' first, which can increase your coding speed..."
Lu Cheng is simple-minded and treats others with sincerity, and is unwilling to hide things from his sweetheart. Even if he is a monk, if he can't find someone to tell the truth to, what's the point of living like that?
Two days later, it was the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the Chinese New Year was just a few days away.
At this time, the publisher began to hype "Beautiful Girl Writer Yun Ji" and her "Bald Man Under the Lamp" book signing.
"Youth Novel Network" followed suit and put up banners and advertisements on the portal website, and it became very popular for a while.
To be honest, the book "Bald Man Under the Lamp" has a certain popularity and influence because of its relatively high subscription rate, but it is an online novel after all, and it has not won a literary award. There are too many so-called "beautiful writers". They all look so ugly that they can hardly be called beautiful writers.
However, when Jiang Qiuyun's photo came out, the effect was completely different.
Many people exclaimed: "What a beauty! A pure natural beauty!"
"She is so beautiful, her eyes are bright and charming. Seeing her brings back my lost youth!"
"This is so beautiful, even more stunning than an A-list movie star!"
"The novels she writes are very beautiful, and she has a good command of ancient prose. It is a pleasure to read antique novels."
"It is said that the subscriptions of "Bald Man Under the Lamp" have skyrocketed! The last month is almost over, with more than 100,000 subscriptions in 24 hours. This is a rare good result for female-channeled novels..."
"I never read female novels, but I like to read beautiful writers! I have to go to the book signing. If I don't go, I won't be able to sleep!"
