The origin of the star lotus world

Fanxingkong said that since his master was in the mortal world, he could continue to monitor the price trends of precious metals. He estimated that with the price of gold declining, the prices of other precious metals were likely to adjust as well. Since gold jewelry was relatively expensive, he suggested looking at smaller platinum pieces or sterling silver pieces weighing a few dozen grams. With a budget of one or two thousand yuan, one could buy a few grams of platinum jewelry or a few dozen grams of sterling silver jewelry. While these might not hold their value, they should be worth some money. When you have a budget, there are always items at reasonable prices.

Tongyang agreed, saying that if it were him, seeing many stores offering great discounts, he would likely buy things because he is a hedonist. As long as it's within his means, he'll have whatever he likes, thinking that's great.

He said he hoped that the master in the mortal world would have a shopping budget and receive some high-quality gifts to improve his mood and make him happy, which was very important.

I mentioned that I do have a shopping budget every year, and I hope to have as much as possible. Regarding precious metal jewelry, I'm likely to buy more, or occasionally look into it, perhaps purchasing smaller pieces. I might also consider buying small-weight investment gold bars. Following Fanxingkong's advice, I could buy a couple thousand or even a few thousand yuan worth of precious metals. I'll consider it if I find something suitable. Regardless of future precious metal resale value, high-purity precious metals will always have value. However, my spending power is limited, so I probably can't buy much at once. I could consider buying a little each year, or other items like affordable small commodities, which I can gradually purchase. I'll also look into electronics. With a budget, I'll shop for inexpensive items; I need what I need, and I have quite a few everyday items. Shopping is a necessity of life and also a form of entertainment. As long as I don't overspend and can control my spending, I believe I can buy many good quality, inexpensive items.

Jin Huyue looked at me and smiled, saying that he believed the author had a good understanding of consumption in the mortal world, knew how to be frugal, and that most of the goods he bought were affordable.

He said that if he were in the mortal world, he would let the author manage his money, and he believed that life would be very balanced. For ordinary consumption, he would spend directly, and for some high consumption, he would discuss it appropriately, and life would be very good.

Upon hearing Jin Huyue's words, the four Celestial Gods—Mo Di, Fan Xingkong, Tong Yang, and Hua Zhu—exchanged glances but said nothing.

Mo Di Fan Xing Kong gave a mocking laugh, while Tong Yang Hua Zhu shook her head slightly, both unconcerned.

They wanted to say something, but didn't; it was the favor shown by the original creator god that they had no choice but to grant.

Seven-Colored Star Lotus listened quietly to everyone's conversation, rarely offering his own opinions, but he would speak when it was his turn.

I said I wanted to talk about the small gold ring I bought during the Year of the Snake in the mortal world, and other things that should be recorded.

Before spending over two thousand yuan on that small gold ring, I had bought a bunch of cheap rings.

I remember many years ago, there were sometimes stalls selling goods in the aisles of large supermarkets. Once, I bought an alloy ring with an amber face. After bargaining, it only cost a few dozen yuan, even though the original price was only a little over a hundred yuan. The face was probably made of plastic or resin containing amber, and the setting was a copper-zinc alloy. It probably didn't contain gold or silver. Back then, pure gold cost several hundred yuan per gram, and silver jewelry cost only eight or nine qian per gram. So, it probably didn't contain any, or only a very small amount of, precious metals.
