逛玉市時看到這件笑面彌勒佛, 材質灰青帶紫剛好可以盈握, 是很好的把件. 老闆娘說這種一手掌握的把件相當難得, 玉身上又雕有一隻蝙蝠, 背部雕有金錢, 象徵福祿壽全在人生乾坤, 一手掌握, 相當吉祥有意義.
老闆娘開了個價, 我覺得稍微貴了些, 沒有買. 第二次再去逛的時候, 老闆娘不在, 問她先生價錢, 他更開了一個天價, 當然更不可能買了. 又過了些時候, 再逛到那, 這回是老闆娘在了. 我問她可以便宜點賣給我嗎?. 她最後同意了, 說這是她早期買的, 要不然不可能有這個價錢. 所以我就買了這件笑逐顏開的福祿壽彌勒佛啦.
Shopping around the Jade Market to see if I could find anything, and then I saw this happy Buddha. It is in greenish grey with some purple color in it. Can be just grasped fully in your hand, a very good hand piece. The lady boss said this kind of hand piece is rare to find, the jade has carved with a bat, and on the back carved with coin money, implying the Luck, Fortune, and longevity all together in your hand. Very meaningful and auspicious.
The boss lady offered me a price but I thought it was a little high so did not buy it. The second time when I browsed around there, the boss lady was not in but her husband, so I asked her husband for the price, and he threw me a rocket high price, and of course, I did not take it either.
After weeks later, I went by that place again, and the boss lady was there, and I questioned her if she could be so kind to lower the price a little to me? She finally accepted and said this was she bought years ago otherwise it would not be this price. So, I then acquired this smiling Fu Lu Shou happy Buddha.
