Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

Lin Xia also showed great interest in the ore Gray mentioned. "It seems that I have to go to the Lake Mine in winter. Maybe I can find other rare ores." Originally, I only planned to go to the Lake Mine to dig farm tools, but it seems that -

"Yes, Lin Xia, I will rely on you for the various ore raw materials I need in the future!" Gray said with a smile, "I mainly make jewelry, and the amount of lake ore I need must be huge. You have to work harder this winter and help me replenish the ore raw materials!"

"Hey~ I'm a girl after all, and I'm just a person. Don't treat me like a mule!" Lin Xia complained pretendingly.

The three of them smiled at each other, as if they saw the dawn of future success.

"Then Lin Xia, since we've come to this point, what other jewelry do you think our store can sell besides the ones provided by Gray? What are the supply channels?" Jennifer continued to ask, "Of course, it's mainly the channels in Mineral Town. I'll find other ways outside of Mineral Town."

Lin Xia held up his head and thought for a while, then said, "I have a few ideas, but I don't know if they are suitable. You can take a look at them."

Seeing Jennifer looking at her expectantly, Lin Xia did not hesitate and said straightforwardly: "First of all, Gray just mentioned that I asked him to use pure silver and pure gold to make jewelry. In this regard, I suggest that Gray can make some special design drawings. When the time comes, I can also provide some, and the effect will not be bad.

These do not have to be made into jewelry, you can make some gold and silver melon seeds, gold and silver peanuts, gold and silver peas, etc. The key is that they do not need to be large and simulated; there are also some gold and silver trees, etc. You should know that in some countries and regions, their traditional festivals are to give these things to younger generations as a blessing, which is very meaningful! "

Gray nodded after hearing this. "The pet pendant you asked me to make last time was also very interesting. Now you said making it into various plant shapes is also very novel. The texture of gold and silver is relatively soft and it is easy to shape. It is not difficult."

"In addition, in addition to minerals, wood, bamboo, and various beautiful shells, corals, etc. can also be made into exquisite jewelry."

"I can understand corals. Some coral trees with unique shapes can be very good decorations. But what about wood, bamboo and shells?" Jennifer asked hesitantly.

"There are many special types of wood, such as agarwood and sandalwood. They have a unique aroma and can be made into exquisite bracelets or wood carvings. Bamboo is also a very good material. Thin bamboo can be woven into small flower baskets and vases, while thick bamboo can be directly carved into bowls, cups and other practical and beautiful items.

In addition, many shells and corals of various shapes and colors can be carved into necklaces, earrings and other jewelry, or inlaid on furniture as decoration. These gifts from nature have become amazing works of art and decorations after being cleverly processed and utilized by people. "

Listening to Lin Xia's story, Jennifer's eyes lit up, and she couldn't wait to see it: "Who should we ask to make these things?"

"For daily necessities made of wood or bamboo, you can ask Goetz directly. You can also provide him with drawings. He has excellent craftsmanship and can also provide the materials. As for shells, corals, etc., I think the great artist Brandon who lives in Goetz's house will definitely be able to make them. I just don't know if his labor fee is high! Brandon is also good at relatively complex works made of wood and bamboo. He can also carve scene works!"

It's just that the design and labor costs are very expensive! However, Jennifer has to deal with all these herself. If it is used for sale, the cost is high and the price is naturally high. With Brandon's name and celebrity effect, maybe it will sell better!

Jennifer nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I will go for consultation."

"However, for materials like shells and corals, you need to go to Zach at the beach. He should be able to provide you with the raw materials. It depends on whether you want to get the materials directly from Zach and then go to Brandon for the commission, or just do it all at once and entrust everything to Brandon. It's all fine!"

"I see. I'll consider it. Lin Xia, do you have any other suggestions besides these?"

"Also, isn't Mr. Bakir the town's botanist? I wonder if he can provide some special flowers and plants, so you can find someone to make them into bookmarks or creative paintings!"

"Hey?" Jennifer suddenly shouted, "Now that you mention it, I remember. There are several eye-catching and creative plant paintings hanging on the walls of Mary's library. These paintings show the wonders of the plant world with unique perspectives and ingenious ideas, which makes people marvel.

Each work seems to have life, vividly presenting the forms, colors and textures of plants. Some paintings combine plants with abstract elements to create a dreamy visual effect; others show the details of plants vividly through delicate brushstrokes and realistic depictions.

These creative paintings not only add an artistic touch to the library, but also allow people to feel the charm and beauty of nature while reading. They may inspire readers' interest in plants and encourage them to have a deeper understanding and appreciation of this colorful biological world."

Lin Xia's eyes lit up, "Yes! I just remembered that every book in the library has a bookmark with related characters and a lot of plant bookmarks, which are also very beautiful. Could it be that these are all made by Mary's family? You can go and ask her and see if we can cooperate!"

Gray wondered, "Is this really okay?"

Lin Xia smiled and explained, "Of course, and Jennifer can also cooperate with Mary to ask her to help provide more creative plant paintings. You can even invite her to participate in the design and incorporate your understanding of nature into her paintings. This will not only increase the uniqueness of the product, but also attract more customers who like art."

Jennifer said excitedly, "That's a great idea! Why didn't I think of it before?"

Lin Xia went on to say, "If we can successfully reach a cooperation agreement, we can also hold a small art exhibition in Mary's library to showcase Mary's works and launch related peripheral products. This will also be of great help in increasing the popularity of both of your stores. Not only can you display the products in your jewelry store, but you can also show everyone the books in the town's library, attracting people to go to the library to gain knowledge."

Gray said excitedly: "I believe Mary must be happy. Her biggest wish is that more people can participate in reading."

Everyone was looking forward to the plan, and Jennifer decided to contact Mary as soon as possible.

Lin Xia also hopes that their jewelry store can open smoothly and be a great success.

After talking with the two of them for a while, the test results of the silver needles from Sabara came out.

Lin Xia came to Sebala's workshop again and listened to Sebala explaining to her: "The main material of your silver needle is still silver, but it is highly refined silver, and other mineral materials that can increase the hardness of the silver needle are added to it. These can be replaced by minerals that are already available in our town, such as diamonds and orthoclase. There is no need to worry about these."

Lin Xia was completely relieved after hearing this. She only heard Saibala continue, "In addition, this silver needle is quenched with a strong anesthetic. Do you have a suitable medicine?"

"Yes, I have already talked to Dot, he will help me apply to the main hospital. After the application is approved, I would like to trouble you to help me temper it!" Lin Xia said quickly.

"That's no problem." Saibala said with a smile, "It's not difficult to poison the silver needles. Just put them in a special container and soak them for a certain period of time. If you poison the arrowheads, it will be more troublesome..."

"Huh? I didn't expect that bows and arrows can also be tempered."

"Well, it's just that the extracted toxin is not easy to obtain. It must be provided by the hospital. They are responsible for people's safety, so the toxin will not be easily provided to individuals." Sabara said seriously, but then looked at Lin Xia with loving eyes and said, "But Dot is willing to provide it to you easily. Even if it is just an anesthetic, it can fully prove that Lin Xia, you are a trustworthy person."
