The origin of the star lotus world

Chapter 2646 (2)

Chapter 2419 (2)

During the Year of the Horse, while shopping at a gold shop in a mall, my family remembered a gold-inlaid jade ornament we had bought years ago. They wondered if it would appreciate in value. At that time, the price of gold was not high, but that ornament cost seven or eight hundred yuan, which could probably buy one or two grams of pure gold jewelry.

The author thought that if he had bought pure silver jewelry that year, he could have gotten about 70 grams for the same price. Since silver was cheap at the time, the small colored silver necklace that was given as a gift was not very valuable. Combining the two small items together, he still ended up buying the more expensive one.

The shop assistant said that those items mostly use gold leaf, weighing only a fraction of a gram of pure gold. How much would they be worth if recycled? It's better for individuals to keep them; they're a different kind of product from pure gold jewelry. Even a very small piece of pure gold jewelry weighs only a fraction of a gram, which would require a significant amount of gold leaf. Many shops don't accept very small amounts of precious metals; if it's too small, it might disappear completely after burning, and even an electronic scale wouldn't detect it.

Upon hearing this explanation, the family realized they had been deceived. They had no choice but to believe the professional explanation and expressed regret for not listening to their child back then. When the price of pure gold jewelry was only a few hundred yuan per gram, buying a few grams of pure gold jewelry could have doubled in value; the quality is different.

Jin Huyue said that if he were in the mortal world, he would certainly listen to what the author said, knowing that it was for his sake. He was very satisfied that the author cared about him.

Hua Zhu said that Young Master Jin is the most blessed, as he has the love and care of the Source Master, which they envy. We hope that our esteemed guest, Jin Huyue, as the highest managing deity of the Star Lotus Universe, will cherish and treat this blessing with kindness.

Modi Fanxingkong said that if they could go to the mortal world, they would find a way to earn money to support their families, and good things would always happen. They would try their best to obey their master's orders and complete the tasks, and things would surely turn out well.

Tong Yang said he listened to both the Origin Master and the Yuan Tian Master. He always believed that they were all doing well, and he was too used to their true family. In the multiverse, only the Origin Master's Origin God Heaven Domain and the Yuan Tian Master's Twelve Universes were the best.

The Seven-Colored Star Lotus said he wished the Primordial Creator God would receive much respect and kindness in the mortal world, and believed that life there would be good for him in the future.

I said that some of the ideas expressed by our distinguished guests are quite good. Okay, now, I'll continue to chat about some things. I need to wrap up the story about going to that jewelry store in the mall I frequent.

That time, I stayed at that gold shop for more than an hour, asking many questions and increasing my knowledge about precious metals.

I heard that the store isn't a chain brand, but it's been open for over ten years. During that time, many other jewelry stores in the same mall closed down for various reasons. This store, specializing in precious metal jewelry, has been open the longest; I've passed by many times, but never bought anything.

When gold was priced at several hundred yuan per gram, the author only looked at jewelry and jade to pair with pure gold. If he had bought pure gold, even a small amount, he could have still increased his personal wealth. But he missed the opportunity, and that's that—missed the opportunity. It's not a big deal. After all, his spending power was limited. Even if he had added up all the money he had spent on jewelry and jade ornaments over the past ten years, and bought them when gold was priced at three or four hundred yuan per gram, that would only amount to twenty or thirty grams of gold jewelry. In the Year of the Horse, that would be worth twenty or thirty thousand yuan, not a lot, just enough for a year's basic living expenses. Those who have made a lot of profit investing in precious metals are the envy of many; they certainly had foresight. As for the author's hundreds of mid-to-low-end pieces of jewelry, they were simply kept; supposedly, they did have some value, belonging to the category of ordinary treasures.
