Old Xue smiled and put away the dagger. He said firmly,"Forget it. This dagger will be returned to you in half a month." If you want to be lazy, you don't even have windows." Xu Qing was speechless by this sudden answer. He turned around and coughed a few times, even coughing up tears. This meal was quite satisfying. Before leaving, Xu Qing asked the teacher for two glass imperial green ring noodles. He planned to go to the jewelry store tomorrow to match two rings, so that he could give Sister Zhu a beautiful gift.
Early the next morning, Xu Qing rode his motorcycle out and headed straight for Antique Street. He remembered that there was a rather large jewelry store diagonally across the street. It also sold all kinds of gold and silver jewelry. He should be able to find suitable ring rings. Sun's Jewelry Store had an excellent reputation in Jiang City. The jewelry they sold was reasonably priced, and it was a good choice whether it was investment or value preservation. This jewelry store had been in business for more than 30 years and had become a gold-lettered signboard in Jiang City's jewelry industry.
Xu Qing parked his motorcycle outside the jewelry store and walked into the jewelry store with a small box in his hand. He stopped at a row of yellow and platinum jewelry counters. A delicate looking saleswoman greeted him with a sweet smile: "Sir, what help do you need?"
" I have two jade rings here. I want to match them with two gold rings, one for each male and female." Xu Qing explained his purpose directly. His eyes swept across the various accessories in the counter.
The salesperson saw this kind of business and smiled and replied,"What price do you need for the ring, or how many grams of gold do you use?"
Xu Qing had never considered this kind of thing before. He smiled indifferently." You guys can do as you please. Just as much as you want."
The salesperson smiled sweeter: "Then please take out the ring noodles and measure them. I will arrange them for you immediately."
Xu Qing smiled as he opened the brocade box. Two green ring faces came into view. Although the saleswoman has seen a lot of the world, she is still attracted by their beauty. She carefully measured the surface of the ring and reported a suitable price to Xu Qing. Xu Qing nodded in agreement. Then, he watched as the salesperson carefully selected two simple and elegant gold rings for him. He took the ring and thanked the saleswoman and left the jewelry store. Okay, here's a revised version of the original, expressed in a confident, enthusiastic, formal style:
As soon as he stepped into the shop, he could feel an elegant aura. Looking around, the decoration is elegant and the environment is clean, which makes people pay tribute. The salesperson smiled politely and introduced warmly," Hello, we have a lot of beautiful rings here. You will definitely like them."
Xu Qing smiled and opened the brocade box in his hand, revealing two crystal clear ring surfaces. His eyes flashed, and he said firmly," I would like you to pair these two glass rings with a perfect pair of rings made of the best materials."
Seeing this, the salesperson immediately understood that the value of these two ring noodles was extraordinary. He left quickly and soon brought an experienced old master with him. The old master was dressed in neat overalls, his temples were white, and his eyes revealed concentration and professionalism. " This is Master Huang from our shop. He has rich experience in ring making. He will definitely be able to make a perfect ring for you." He introduced Xu Qing politely.
Master Huang took the ring face, put on white gloves, and carefully observed. His eyes revealed a love and persistence for craftsmanship. He examined it carefully for five minutes before he breathed a sigh of relief and said with certainty,"It is indeed a glass imperial green. It is my honor to make a ring for such a gemstone." Please rest assured that I will do my best to complete it."
Xu Qing is very satisfied with the service attitude of this jewelry store. He smiled and agreed with Master Huang's suggestion and followed him to the workshop. Although the workshop was small, it was well organized. A workstation and two stools are neatly arranged, and this professional working environment makes people feel at ease. Because of the high value of these two ring faces, Master Huang decided to personally watch the whole process of matching the ring.
Under Master Huang's careful selection, he chose the extremely pure Five Nine Gold as the ring's material. The world's purest gold complements the glass imperial green ring. He skillfully made a pair of perfect lovers rings, perfectly inlaid on the ring surface. The process that was originally expected to take some time, Master Huang only took half an hour to complete. He was very pleased with his work and promised that the rings would never fall off.
Xu Qing was very happy to see Master Huang's exquisite skills and perfect works. He gave a tip of a thousand dollars on the spot to show his gratitude. At this moment, he felt that he had made the right decision to come to this jewelry store. Not only did he get the perfect ring, but he also enjoyed professional and warm service.
Facing two priceless rings, Xu Qing did not hesitate to swipe his card to pay. He had tens of thousands of cash on him. He was originally planning to show off his skills on Antique Street. You know, there are basically cash transactions, stalls are not credit card places.
Xu Qing gently stuffed the brocade box containing the ring into his pocket and prepared to leave. At this moment, a white gold cup car whistled and stopped outside the gate. Five men rushed out of the car. They were armed with guns, wearing silicone masks, and wearing cowboy caps. They were carrying a wide-open travel bag.
With three pistols and two double-barreled shotguns in their hands, they rushed into the jewelry store. Three of them rushed straight to the gold jewelry counter, one rushed to the jade jewelry counter, and one guy with a double-barreled shotgun stood guard at the door.
The first man to reach the gold cabinet raised his pistol and fired a shot into the ceiling."Robbery!" he shouted. Store personnel put cash and items into bags!"
There were more than fifty customers in the jewelry store, and the sound of the gun made them panic. Driven by survival instinct, almost everyone rushed to the door. Of course, there were also a few who were scared out of their wits and obediently squatted on the ground against the wall, trying to move to a more hidden position.
The robber at the door pressed his gun down and pulled the trigger at the crowd. The shotgun bullets bombarded the ground. Iron sand and steel balls flew everywhere and hit the legs of several customers who rushed to the front. Blood immediately flowed out. They fell to the ground and wailed in pain, clutching their wounds.
"Those who don't want to die, squat down!" The robber at the door shouted, and the customers immediately quieted down. They squatted down in silence. After all, no one wanted to be the one who was shot. Under the black muzzle, they all chose to yield.
Most of the salespeople inside the counter were women. Under the threat of gunshots, they choked and took out the jewelry in the counter with trembling hands and poured it into the robbers 'travel bags. Under the threat of five guns, Xu Qing reluctantly chose to squat against the wall. He knew his own abilities and was defenseless against bullets. Everything today was too bad. He encountered this incident as soon as he left the door.
There was a scattered sound of dumping, and most of the customers were shaking with their heads lowered. They didn't even dare to look at the robbers, because even if they did, it might not be helpful.
However, Xu Qing watched it. He clearly observed the faces of each of the robbers. The thin masks could not block his clairvoyant eyes at all. He could even carve busts of the robbers if they made any movement. This way, catching these guys would be easy.
" Hurry up and f * ck you. If you continue to dawdle, I'll shoot you." A robber with a pistol threatened a pale saleswoman viciously. Surprisingly, she was the one who greeted Xu Qing earlier.
