735 Discrimination
Even if there are no jade beads, this net woven with real gold threads is already a work of art. It is already exquisite and charming enough. Various knots are complicated or simple, and the pure gold threads are woven one by one, which are either abstract or concrete.
The subtle patterns are exquisite, clever, beautiful and complete!
This kind of weaving skill alone makes this string of gold mesh with twelve small pockets more than one grade better than those pure gold bracelets on the market. When Zhang Jin arranged the twelve jade beads according to the twelve earthly branches,
After the order is embedded one by one, its beauty is even more amazing.
The zodiac signs on the twelve jade beads seem to have been invited into their own commensurate and splendid temples. The twelve jade beads that originally seemed to be made from heaven have added an aura of wealth and luxury out of thin air, sublimating their temperament and making them extraordinarily graceful.
The brilliant gold threads, white jade, and yellow emeralds not only connect the twelve beads well, but the continuity of the gold thread weaving pattern makes the twelve orbs seamlessly integrated, giving people the feeling that if one of them is missing, they will be lost.
Too bad, one more one will make you feel redundant.
Perfect!

When I saw Mother He and Mr. Liu, they both had grunting faces, drooling, and staring at the 'babies' in their hands with gleaming eyes. They didn't care about them at all. And although Father He was not on the same level as these two women,
'Like the 'little man', I was fascinated by the sight, but I also wanted to take the 'Moon Cage Sha' from my wife's hands several times and look at it carefully, but after being forcefully refused, I leaned forward to enjoy it together.
Zhang Jin was ignored by no one. Zhang Jin also knew that even if he took the initiative to strike up a conversation, these possessed people would not talk to him, and he didn't want to get in trouble and get bored.
Therefore, Zhang Jin simply put away a series of crafting tools such as the stove, anvil, hammer, and Xiao Li's flying knife, and then took He Qingqian and walked out together.
You guys ignore me, but I don’t want to talk to you light bulbs! Without your interruption, I can just let my wife and I have our own romance!
He's mother and He's father are not proficient in Zhenjian. They only know that the necklace called "Yuelongsha" in Mother He's hands is extremely beautiful. In their decades of experience, the beauty of this "Yuelongsha" has become clear to them.
, except for 'Xia' and 'Guardian', which were also created by Zhang Jin, they are incomparable!
Its beauty is very close to the artistic conception of "smoke cage, cold water, moon cage and sand" in the ancient poem! And there seems to be a power to confuse people's hearts. There is a magic power in myths and legends that can arouse people's greed, just like the legend
It was like a 'Pandora's box' inside, which firmly attracted the attention of the two elders. It even made Mother He unwilling to let go for a moment.
Although Mr. Liu is a master of traditional Chinese painting, his father He is much better at appraising works of art than his mother. But after all, he is not a master who specializes in jewelry or stone carving. So he also
I just feel that the twelve-bead bracelet in my hand, which is engraved with the twelve zodiac signs and named "Guardian", is extremely ingenious in terms of conception and craftsmanship. It is exquisite. If you evaluate it carefully, you can tell.
Come one, two, three, four.
But that's all. It's just a little better than He's father and mother. If you ask him to evaluate 'Xia', 'Yuelong Sha' and this 'Guardian', all three pieces of jewelry have reached the pinnacle of skill.
, he was also confused about which one was better and which one was worse. He could only be speechless or talk nonsense.
Only when these three pieces of jewelry fall into the hands of a 'golden-eyed' appraiser like the old man of the Liu family, or let Zhang Jin, the creator, comment on them himself, can the pros and cons of these three pieces of jewelry be clearly distinguished.
…………
Every piece of art that has been passed down through the ages is often the work of an artist's painstaking efforts. Even if the entire process remains the same, the work created by the artist with care and without care will be very different.
Even if a master has perfected his skills, his works will inevitably be of varying quality, or even good and bad, due to various reasons.
Just like the couple of the ancient Ganjiang Moye, as master swordsmiths, they have made more than just two swords, "Ganjiang" and "Moye", but only these two swords have become famous throughout the ages, far surpassing their peers.
.The reason for this result is not that the materials are different, nor that the technology
The craftsmanship is different, just because the two swords named after them have devoted their efforts, so even the works made of the same materials and the same techniques are endowed with souls. Coupled with some luck and coincidence,
That's what makes these two famous swords through the ages so unique.
Therefore, even if Zhang Jin is far superior to all the master-level craftsmen in the past five thousand years, even if Zhang Jin is now a unique and unrivaled perfection-level grand master in human history, his works will inevitably be inferior to him because of his devotion.
There are differences depending on the concern.
Therefore, it is natural that the most perfect among these three pieces of jewelry is the ‘Xia’ that Zhang Jin used to ‘trap’ He Qingqian for the rest of his life!
Because of Zhang Jin's feelings for He Qingqian, this ring is of great significance to Zhang Jin. When making it, he put the most care, real concentration, and real dedication!
Even without the legendary vomiting of three liters of blood, gray hair overnight or the evil nature tempered by hard work, it is enough to make this ring full of life-like spirituality due to the physical and mental investment and the perfection level skills of the grand master.
Therefore, this ruby ring named 'Xia' can almost be said to be the pinnacle work of Zhang Jin, the Dzogchen master. If it fell into the eyes of a discerning master like Mr. Liu, it would definitely be classified as a national treasure.
It can even be compared with 'Midian Yunshan' which has a thousand-year historical value bonus!
If you use Zhang Jin’s ‘Big Thief’ sub-professional skill ‘Thief’s Eye’ to screen, you will see comments like this.
…………
Item: Ruby-set platinum ring;
Item name: Xia;
Physical history: 0.01 years;
Producer level: Level 10;
Item value: Level 10;
Estimated value: 15,000 taels of silver;
…………
Sure enough, according to the evaluation of the "Wulin Three Kingdoms" system, this gemstone ring is actually the top tenth level item, and its value is even more than that of the "Haidai Tower" by Mi Fu, which Mr. Liu described as a national treasure.
"Wan Yue Tu" is even more valuable, almost twice as valuable.
Of course, this is just a systematic assessment. In today's society, where antiques are overheated and historical value is greatly overestimated, it is absolutely impossible for this newly produced ring to reach this price. Even if it flows to the market, the "Wulin Three Kingdoms"
"In the system, the price of "Haidailou Wanyuetu", which is only worth level 9, may even far exceed the price of 'Xia', which has an estimated value of level 10 in this system!
But even if the circulation price of this ring named 'Xia' cannot be compared with those antiques with historical bonus, celebrity bonus, and cultural bonus. But compared with the new jewelry in the world, it is definitely the most expensive
That level of treasure.
Even those pieces of jewelry set with several carats of blue diamonds, white diamonds, and pink diamonds would be overshadowed by the true art and ring of "Xia".
Compared with the 'Xia' that is now on the ring finger of He Qingqian's left hand, the 'Moon Cage Sha' made by Zhang Jin's mother and the 'Guardian' extorted by Mr. Liu are much inferior.
Although these two pieces of jewelry can be said to be outstanding in the market, in the evaluation of the "Wulin Three Kingdoms" system, they are only level nine! Compared with 'Xia', it seems that it is only "level 1" in the literal sense.
It’s one level worse, but if you break it down into details, it’s almost two levels worse!
Because the 'Xia' that Zhang Jin carefully crafted with all his strength, if the Zhenjian refines it, the value of the item is almost perfect at level ten. The 'Moon Cage Sha' and 'Guardian' are at most the level of nine levels.
Don't underestimate the difference between the first and second levels. In the "Martial Arts Three Kingdoms" system, whether it is treasure appraisal, sub-professional level or skill level, the difference between first and second level is not big, but the higher
As you get to the advanced level, the difference becomes even greater. Especially between the advanced ninth level and the top tenth level, the difference between this level is almost as big as the world.
This is the difference between a great master and a Poxu-level master, just like the difference between a sweeping monk and Murong Bo. It seems that there is only a slight difference, but it is easy for someone to crush you to death;
This is the difference between a master and a master, this is the difference between a peerless treasure and a precious treasure.
If this gap were put into reality, it would be almost the same as the difference between ten seconds and nine seconds in the 100-meter flying competition on the field. It is not on the same level at all!
If this gap were taken into account in mythology, it would be like the difference between immortals and mortals! One step forward will make you an immortal, and your life span will be thousands of years. If you take one step back, you will become a mortal. At most, a human can live for more than a hundred years and jump more than ten meters.
They are just mortal masters. It can be seen that the difference is huge. It is already a qualitative difference!
The reason why 'Yuelongsha' and 'Guardian' are so different from 'Xia' is naturally because Zhang Jin paid so much attention to the difference.
During the creation of 'Xia', Zhang Jin was filled with love for He Qingqian. Thinking that this ring would be worn on the hand of his beloved He Qingqian for a lifetime, his mood was even more agitated and he was always in a state of passion.
Every movement, every idea is like a divine help
.It can even be said that the creation of 'Xia' was largely accidental. If Zhang Jin were to build it as it was, it would be almost impossible to create it so perfectly. Superstitiously speaking, it was originally made by Zhang Jin.
In a state of passion, a good hand can happen by chance!
But 'Yuelongsha' and 'Guardian' are different!
Although when making these two pieces of jewelry, Zhang Jin upheld the professional sincerity of a "jewelry jeweler" and was equally meticulous and never lazy or lazy. However, due to different intentions, no matter how exquisite the technique, it is difficult to make up for the gap.
To put it bluntly, Zhang Jin’s motive for making a necklace for his old mother-in-law was not pure. It was not sincere at all! It was more to curry favor with his old mother-in-law, coupled with the greed of the old mother-in-law when she saw "Xia"
It looks like this, but it has to be done like this.
The mother-in-law's necklace was like this, and the bracelet blackmailed by Mr. Liu was even more like this.
Therefore, when He Qingqian made the ring, Zhang Jin's heart was filled with He Qingqian's soft smile, joyful happiness, and the way the ring was worn on He Qingqian's slender ring finger on her left hand. She was naturally confident, as
There is divine help.
When making necklaces for his mother-in-law and bracelets for Mr. Liu, what Zhang Jin had in mind was much simpler.
