30, this Luban is locked

"Grandpa!"

"Xiaojie, what are you busy with?"

"Oh, buy something in town, I'll be back later. ”

"Oh, then you come back to me, I've figured out something small, can you come and see it!"

"Uh-huh, then I'll come over later. ”

Putting down the phone, Xia Jie shouted at Song Xiaodong, who was chatting with his little sister who sold milk tea.

"Xiaodong, let's go, go back first, the old man is looking for me!"

"Oh, it's coming!"

Picking up the milk tea, Song Xiaodong jumped on the three-wheeled motorcycle in three steps and two steps.

"Brother Jie, what are you doing in the afternoon, why don't you go hunting soft-shelled turtles?"

I tasted the sweetness last time, and on the way back, Song Xiaodong asked happily.

"You kid, this is an addiction? ”

Xia Jie smiled and said, "What's the matter, don't be busy with the orchard at home lately?"

"Well, it's basically sold almost, this year's market is still successful, the old man said, buy me a Wuling Light at the end of the year, and go straight to the well-off!"

Song Xiaodong grinned.

"Yo, then you're a shotgun for a cannon, you can!"

Xia Jie said slightly teasingly.

"Hehe, what do you need when you go back, Brother Jie, in a word, I promise to be on call!"

Song Xiaodong raised his head and said in high spirits.

......

"Grandpa, I'm here!"

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the old man sitting at the carpentry table, holding a ruler pen, sketching something on a thick wooden board.

"Grandpa, what are you going to do here?"

Xia Jie walked up to him and couldn't help asking.

"Didn't you say that everyone liked to see the Luban stool last time, so I'm going to make a Luban lock this time!"

Xia Changjiang said happily.

"Grandpa, isn't this what Luban locks look like?"

Xia Jie, who played with the old man as a Luban lock when he was a child, asked curiously.

"Well, it used to be common, but this time I'm going to change my appearance and make a pumpkin Luban lock, what do you think?"

Xia Changjiang picked up the wooden board and gestured down and asked

After thinking about what to do in the past few days, he already knew what to do.

"Okay, it just so happens that the video is also played on the pumpkin platform, which is quite interesting!"

For the pumpkin Luban lock that grandpa said, Xia Jie is still looking forward to it.

"Then it's decided. ”

After that, the old man picked up the saw and was ready to start work.

"Grandpa, wait, I'll record a video for you. ”

Xia Jie hurriedly summoned the drone and turned on the video recording function.

"What grandpa wants to do today is a Luban lock, and everyone usually uses toys made of six rice sticks, but what grandpa wants to do today is a pumpkin Luban lock, which is worth looking forward to. ”

I saw that the old man pressed the wooden block that had been drawn on the carpentry table and sawed it meticulously.

"Grandpa, I'm going to cook rice!"

Seeing that he couldn't help much, Xia Jie found himself a job.

Just the remaining half of the white truffle was brought, and it was also given to the old man to taste.

"Hmm!"

Xia Changjiang snorted, completely immersed in the joy of woodworking.

He has been doing carpentry for most of his life, and now he can still exert his residual heat, which can make many people like this traditional Chinese craft, which is enough for him.

......

The progress of making the pumpkin Luban lock was going well, and the prototype was completed before dinner.

Without asking Xia Jie to intervene, Xia Changjiang continued to polish those parts finely and smoothly.

Once the wax is ready, he lines up all the components on the table and begins to assemble.

Under the old man's rough and flexible hands, a lifelike pumpkin Luban lock was successfully made.

There are no CAD drawings, no model references, everything is conceived in the mind and shaped in the hands.

The traditional mortise and tenon structure process is so magical!

"Xiaojie, what do you think of this pumpkin Luban lock?"

The old man asked, holding the wooden pumpkin with both hands.

"No, grandpa, your craftsmanship is really amazing!"

"I'll make it tonight and send it out, so that the big guy can also see our original Luban bricks, which are much stronger than those Lego bricks!"

Thumbs up, Xia Jie couldn't wait to say.

"Legos, what's that?"

Xia Changjiang asked with a wink.

For these new things, the old man who is in a mountain village and doesn't use the Internet really doesn't know.

"Oh, it's a kind of building block toy abroad, and it's selling well in China. ”

Xia Jie explained, picked up his phone, searched it, and then handed it over.

"That's it, that's it, grandpa, take a look. ”

Xia Changjiang took the phone and looked at it for a while, and said thoughtfully.

"Well, I can try it later. ”

"Well, let's take a look at this video effect first, don't worry. ”

Seeing that his grandfather got up and shook his arms, Xia Jie hurriedly went up to help him pinch his shoulders, and said by the way.

"By the way, grandpa, I ordered a massage chair for you today, and it is estimated that it will be delivered tomorrow, and you don't have to go to the blind man in the village to get a massage in the future. ”

"You kid, you have money to save a little, what kind of massage chair do you want to buy, that thing is not cheap, right?"

The old man asked with a frown.

"Hey, it's not much money, grandpa, don't ask, buy everything. ”

"Let's go, the dishes are cold, let's hurry up and eat!"

Xia Jie smiled and pulled the old man directly into the house.

......

"Boss, the author of that Grandpa Natsuki has just updated a new video, and it works very well!"

In the operation department of the pumpkin company, an employee saw the skyrocketing playback data, and hurriedly called the manager Ma Dakang.

"What, what do you say, be louder!"

Ma Dakang, who was staggering at the dinner, took the phone and walked outside to ask.

"Grandpa Xia Mu just updated a video of making pumpkin Luban locks, and in less than half an hour, it has exceeded 100,000 views!"

The employee said excitedly.

This is definitely a phenomenal work.

And the pumpkin Luban lock corresponds to the pumpkin video, which can be regarded as an invisible advertisement for the company.

"Okay, give them a promotion immediately and see how the 24-hour data goes!"

After explaining, Ma Dakang also opened the platform and clicked on the ID of "Grandpa Xia Mu" that he followed, and sure enough, there was a new video: Pumpkin Luban Lock.

Looking at the wooden strips of different lengths that could be pieced together under the old man's throwing and chiseling, Ma Dakang couldn't help but admire again and again.

"Lu Ban lock can still play like this, the old man's craftsmanship is simply amazing!"

He immediately forwarded the video to the company's big boss.

"Boss, the carpentry master I mentioned to you last time made a pumpkin Luban lock, I think it's very meaningful, see if we can buy it!"

After a while, the big boss replied with a concise word: Okay!

Seeing that the big boss was very interested, where did Ma Dakang still have the mind to drink, he hurriedly followed and called Xia Jie.
