Reborn Troops

Zhou Wanwan sat in her jewelry store, staring at the pile of silver jewelry with empty eyes.

She thought of the hollow-carved silver jewelry, and her heart was moved by the exquisite artistry.

However, when she actually started working on it, she found that this craft was much more difficult than she had imagined.

"Qianqian, you have to help me." Zhou Wanwan called her best friend Qianqian with a hint of despair in her voice.

"What's wrong, Wanwan?" A shallow voice came from the other end of the phone, with a hint of concern.

"I tried hollow carving, but it turned out to be a mess." Zhou Wanwan sighed, "I think I may not be suitable for this."

"Don't be discouraged, Wanwan." Qianqian comforted, "Why don't you try adding some bells to the silver jewelry? Maybe it will be more interesting."

Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up, "Bell? That's a good idea!"

"Yes, the sound of the bell is crisp, maybe it can attract more customers." Qianqian said with a smile.

Zhou Wanwan hung up the phone with a new direction in her mind.

She began to think about how to add bells to silver jewelry so as to maintain the beauty of the hollowing out while making the sound of the bells the highlight.

A few days later, Zhou Wanwan went to find Qianqian with her new design.

Qianqian looked at those exquisite silver ornaments and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"Wanwan, you did a great job." Qianqian praised, "The placement of these bells is just right. They don't look out of place, but they make pleasant sounds."

Zhou Wanwan smiled and said, "Thanks for your suggestion."

"However," Qianqian suddenly frowned, "Have you ever thought that the sound of the bell might be noisy to some people?"

Zhou Wanwan was stunned for a moment, "That's a problem."

“Perhaps you could try different sized bells,” Qianqian suggested, “Smaller bells have a softer sound and might be more suitable for some customers.”

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said, "Good idea. I'll try it now."

In the next few days, Zhou Wanwan was extremely busy.

She tried bells of various sizes until she found a balance.

As soon as her new design appeared in the store, it immediately attracted the attention of many customers.

“These pieces are so beautiful,” one customer exclaimed, “and the bells sound so nice.”

Zhou Wanwan felt delighted, she knew her efforts were not in vain.

Zhou Wanwan's jewelry store ushered in a new peak, and customers praised her bell silver jewelry. However, just when she thought everything was going well, a special customer walked into the store.

Zhang Lele is a young artist who has developed a keen interest in Zhou Wanwan's silver jewelry. She carefully observed each piece of work, and finally her eyes stopped on the hollow carved silver jewelry.

"These silver ornaments are so beautiful," Zhang Lele exclaimed, "but I have a special idea."

Zhou Wanwan came over with a smile, "What do you think?"

“I want to carve bamboo patterns on the hollowed-out silver,” Zhang Lele said, “and I also want to add some color.”

Zhou Wanwan was stunned for a moment. This request was a huge challenge for her.

She had never tried adding color to silver jewelry, let alone carving intricate bamboo patterns.

"That sounds interesting," Zhou Wanwan said, "but I need some time to research it."

Zhang Lele nodded, "I understand, but I hope to get the finished product within a month."

Zhou Wanwan was a little nervous, but she still agreed. After seeing Zhang Lele off, she immediately called Qianqian.

"Qianqian, I'm in trouble again." There was a hint of anxiety in Zhou Wanwan's voice.

"What's wrong, Wanwan?" Qianqian's voice was still full of concern.

"A customer wanted me to carve bamboo patterns into hollowed-out silverware and add some color."

Zhou Wanwan explained, "I have never tried such a process before."

"It's indeed a challenge," Qianqian said, "but you can try."

"But I'm worried that I can't do it well." Zhou Wanwan sighed.

"Don't worry, Wanwan," Qianqian encouraged, "You can start with something simple and learn it slowly."

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said, "You're right, I should try it."

In the next few days, Zhou Wanwan began to study how to add color to silver jewelry.

She tried various pigments and techniques, but the results were not satisfactory.

Her mood became increasingly heavy, and she even began to doubt whether she could complete the task.

Just when she was about to give up, Qianqian called again.

"Wanwan, I have an idea," Qianqian said, "You can try using enamel craft."

"Enamel?" Zhou Wanwan was a little confused.

"Yes, enamel can create colorful patterns on silver jewelry," Qianqian explained, "and it's also very durable."

Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up, "That sounds good, I'll try it now."

She immediately began to study enamel craft, and after several days of hard work, she finally mastered the basic techniques.
