My system is not decent

The religious beliefs of the royal family in the Qing Dynasty included Buddhism, Taoism and Shamanism, but mainly Lamaism in Tibetan Buddhism.

The famous Yuhua Pavilion, Fanhua Building, and Baoxiang Building in the Forbidden City all enshrine a large number of Lamaist Buddha statues and magic tools.

It is said that it is quite complete and has been kept in its original state for hundreds of years.

Unfortunately, the general public is unlikely to see it.

The Buddhist cultural relics exhibited in the Treasure Hall, including pagodas, Buddha statues, mandala, etc., just "see the leopard in the tube".

For example, the pagodas made of gold and precious stones, made by the Qing Palace Office, are definitely a hundred times more beautiful than the ones in front of them.

Seeing the crude golden pagoda in front of him, Chen Wenzhe was really interested and wanted to build one.

After all, he has made a lot of porcelain and bronze wares, but he has never made gold wares, let alone magic wares!

Of course, if he wants to make it, it must be an early boutique.

He didn't need to make a special design, because there were plenty of patterns in the Qing Palace Building Office.

And these wealth were all inherited by Chen Wenzhe through Suihou's Pearl.

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Wenzhe found a fine pagoda suitable for imitation.

The whole body of this pagoda is made of gold, inlaid with pearls, turquoise, lapis lazuli and so on.

In the center is the central tower, surrounded by eight small towers, representing the four directions of the four directions.

The body of the tower is decorated with pearls and precious stones, showing the characteristics of royal handicrafts

The treasures of this pagoda were originally enshrined in the Buddhist Hall of Chonghua Palace.

The Chonghua Palace was the residence of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty when he was the prince.

The tower shares 8.5 grams of gold, 293 large pearls, and more than 500 pieces of various precious stones such as turquoise, red coral, and lapis lazuli.

The whole tower uses a variety of crafts such as chisel carving, hammering, inlay, etc., which is exquisite and exquisite.

All kinds of precious stones are dotted in it, making it even more noble and gorgeous. This is definitely a masterpiece among the large pagodas built by the Qing Palace.

If this pagoda is imitated, Chen Wenzhe can easily meet the conditions.

He has no shortage of gold, and his craftsmanship is not bad. With enough gems, what's the problem?

Thinking about it this way, Chen Wenzhe really planned to imitate a batch of Buddhist treasures when he had time.

Buddhism can be carried forward, and the various treasures handed down in the world still have a certain guiding role.

The one just now was still a pagoda. If it was a Buddha statue, it was produced by the Qing Palace Building Office, it would be even more exquisite, and the most important thing is to be vivid.

For example, a Bodhisattva statue is made of gold, with brilliant colors and exquisite workmanship.

The whole body of the Bodhisattva is inlaid with 182 oriental pearls, which is luxurious and rich. It is one of the treasures among the large number of Tibetan Buddhist statues cast during the Qianlong period.

This statue was made of red gold (13% gold) by the Manufacturing Office in the [-]th year of Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty.

It is worth mentioning that the backlight of this image is inlaid with glass, which was a very fashionable method at that time.

If it is said that these are special and need special treatment, so the products are all high-quality products.

Then, judging from some ordinary things, it is even more obvious that it was produced by the Qing Palace Manufacturing Office, and it must be a high-quality product!

For example, the simplest utensil, military holding!

This thing is "bottle, water bottle", which is "one of the eighteen things" for Buddhist monks, and is used to drink water or clean hands.

There are also some boxes, which are naturally scripture boxes, boxes used to store Buddhist scriptures.

The sutra boxes produced by the Qing Palace Manufacturing Office are generally made of gold and decorated with pearls, rubies, lapis lazuli and other pearls and stones, showing the aura of royal wealth.

There are also some offering bowls, such as a common offering bowl in Tibetan Buddhism. The bowl is carved from white jade, and the cover and seat are made of gold. The combination is more precious.

The bowl is carved from white jade, and the lid is decorated with Tibetan mantras, and the rest of the bowl is inlaid with turquoise. How is this so luxurious?

Therefore, it can be said that any item used in the Qing Palace is the most luxurious boutique in all ages.

What's more, the magic tools are all dedicated to the gods, and they will be carefully crafted and taken seriously.

For example, there are many forms of Buddhist niches in the Qing palace, and the pavilion style is the most commonly used one.

For example, a pavilion-style building imitating the traditional Chinese style is divided into upper and lower floors, and three rooms are opened in each as niches for worshiping statues.

This niche is made of gold and decorated with turquoise and pearls, which is very luxurious.

There are also Buddhist nests. In order to worship Buddha anytime and anywhere, Tibetan monks and laymen often carry small Buddhist niches with them.

One or several small Buddha statues are provided in this small niche, commonly known as "Buddha's nest".

The local Buddhist nests are generally made of copper, while the courts of the Qing Dynasty mostly used gold and silver as materials, embedded with turquoise, coral, lapis lazuli, etc., which looks more luxurious.

Others include bottles, mandalas and so on.

Vases in various forms are very typical offerings in Tibetan Buddhism.

The mandala is an important dharma object for the practice and worship of esoteric religion.

The mandala produced by the Qing Palace is complex but not chaotic, easily reflecting the superb craftsmanship of the court craftsmen.

"Boss, boss, these Buddha statues are nothing to look at, look at this box, there is only one gem in it."

"What?" Chen Wenzhe's thoughts were interrupted by Gao Qijing, he followed Gao Qijing's fingers and looked at the box not far away.

"What did you say? There's only one gem in it?"

The corner of Chen Wenzhe's mouth twitched. He naturally understood what Gao Qijing meant. Didn't it mean that the gems inside were huge?

But this is too big, no matter what quality gems are, as long as they can reach one cubic meter, they are all treasures.

After opening the box, Chen Wenzhe took a look, and found that it was exactly as he thought. Such a big gem is definitely a treasure.

"How much gold did you get?"

"Hey, it's useless!"

Seeing Gao Qijing's performance, Chen Wenzhe knew that the way he came from must not be right, otherwise he wouldn't have such an expression.

"How much?" Chen Wenzhe didn't want to ask too much, but there are still rewards that should be given.

If this treasure is really the same as the one he thought of, then the reward will not be less.

"510 kilograms!" Gao Qijing said cheerfully.

Chen Wenzhe was speechless, and confirmed that this is the largest sapphire that Skaguo found, and it seems to be the largest in the world.

He remembered very clearly that the huge sapphire weighed 510 kilograms.

The value of such a large sapphire must not be low. At that time, it was estimated to be worth at least 1 million US dollars.

And this valuation, but the valuation of the production area, has nothing to do with the market price.

You know, Ska is known as the "Kingdom of Jewels", and the Ratnapura area is the famous "Gem City" in the country.

In early 2016, the 1404.49-carat star sapphire "Adam's Star" was discovered in the area. This sapphire was known as the world's largest sapphire at the time.

However, this record was quickly rewritten, because also in the Ratnapura district, a sapphire weighing 250 million carats (about 500 kilograms) surprised the world.

According to the British "Sun" report at the time, in 2020, in Ratnapura District, Sri Lanka, a Mr. Gamage hired workers to dig wells in his back garden.

As a result, the workers accidentally dug out a sapphire measuring 100 centimeters long, 72 centimeters wide and 50 centimeters high.
