Chapter 187: The Biggest Jade Material
The next day was the day of this jade carving competition.
Wang Yun also attaches great importance to this, and it has long passed.
Zhou Yuancai also came early, and Wang Yun waved his hand at him from afar when he saw him, "Brother Zhou, it's early." ”
Zhou Yuancai felt that the behavior of a man in his twenties waving when he met seemed a bit naïve, he couldn't be like Wang Yun.
However, after he waited for Wang Yun to get closer, he still smiled at him enthusiastically, and then walked up to him and said, "Your name is Wang Yun, right?"
"Yes. Wang Yun nodded.
"Wang Yun?" Someone suddenly muttered, then glanced back at Wang Yun, and then said to the people around him suspiciously, "I've heard of this person, it's not that he is more powerful at gambling on stones, and he seems to have become an expert in ancient jade later, why did he come to learn jade carving again, and he is still so young?"
"It must be the same name, I think about how the ancient jade expert can be so young. The man's companion responded.
After making sure that the person behind him was not the Wang Yun they said, the voices of the two people in front of him did not deliberately lower any longer, and began to talk about some deeds related to Wang Yun, and one thing after another came out of other people's mouths, almost making Wang Yun wonder if this was what he was talking about.
Zhou Yuancai also looked at Wang Yun curiously, "I've heard before, that ancient jade expert is actually very young, can't it really be you?"
Wang Yun touched his nose and said unnaturally, "Since you are an expert in ancient jade, you shouldn't come to learn any jade carving, right?"
He sounded more like a curious inquiry, and he didn't deny anything.
It's just that Zhou Yuan looked at Wang Yun, and remembered the enthusiastic way he greeted him just now, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't think he would be an expert.
"Then your name is quite good, with the same name and surname as such a powerful person. Zhou Yuancai said.
Wang Yun laughed, "I think your name is better." ”
When Zhou Yuan heard this, his whole person suddenly seemed to wilt.
Their family's name is based on generation, he is a person from a distant generation, and his family hopes that he can become a talent in the future, so they named him Zhou Yuancai.
But the two words Yuancai are connected together, which sounds more like the meaning of being far away from talent.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yuan suddenly saw that Wang Yun was a little uncomfortable, and he understood why the jade carver of his master's lineage, Li Bogu, and the jade carver on Zhu Lao's side always did not deal with each other.
He was angry with this kid before he could say a few words, and he said secretly in his heart, "Even if you have the same name as the expert, I'll let you know what it means to lose later!"
After arriving indoors, Wang Yun saw that there was a lot of jade on a table in the middle, and the jade materials for the competition were selected by everyone themselves, and then designed according to the shape and color of the jade materials they selected.
The competition time is a total of three hours, and the players who have not finished carving at the end of the time will be counted as losing.
After the time for the competition came, with the host's order, everyone walked towards the place where the materials were selected.
The selection of materials in the competition is a very important part, and if you can choose the materials that you know how to design and carve at a glance, then it will be much easier.
Zhou Yuancai quickly selected a piece of white jade, this is just an ordinary piece of white jade, not a mutton fat white jade, the jade belt on the outside is a little yellow-brown, and the price is relatively average.
He looked at Wang Yun proudly, wondering what material he had chosen.
As a result, he found that Wang Yun was walking towards the jade carving tool table with a piece of yellow and white jade, not only was he stunned for a moment, but everyone present was stunned when they saw this scene, and even the judges on the stage were surprised.
The size of the material in the jade carving competition is also particular, the material is too small for them to carve out without reaching the skill, but the material is too large, the carving will be more time-consuming, and it is difficult to complete it within the specified time.
And the piece of material selected by Wang Yun is the size of a watermelon, and this piece is placed in a pile of jade materials, although it is very conspicuous, but no player has ever touched it, because as long as people who have learned to choose materials understand that it is impossible for them to finish carving at the specified time.
It took Zhou Yuan a while to come back to his senses, and he secretly felt that he had won this game.
At this time, on the guest seat, Zhou Wenxi was also curious about Zhu Lao, "Zhu Lao, your apprentice is more powerful, and other players don't dare to touch that piece of material, but you said that he has only studied for a month, can he really complete it within the specified time?"
"It should be possible, right?" Zhu Lao really taught him only a few days of kung fu, and he wasn't very sure.
It's just that when the people around heard that Wang Yun had only studied for a month, their faces were shocked, and they suddenly didn't know what to say.
However, everyone thought that since Zhu Laoken asked him to come over to compete, he was either sure of it, or he wanted to take advantage of this to see if this person was suitable for training.
After Zhou Yuancai moved the things to the table, he quickly thought about what he wanted to carve, and after he designed the pattern on the drawing, he drew the pattern on the material.
At this time, he subconsciously looked towards Wang Yun.
Just now, Wang Yun chose the largest piece of material, which directly surprised him, and Wang Yun is now sitting on the workbench and starting to design graphics.
Seeing that he also started to draw on the drawings, Zhou Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it also needs to be drawn on the drawings before it can be carved, rather than starting directly on the jade, it seems that Wang Yun is really a novice.
Although he learned carving, he was obviously inferior to himself in the selection of materials, and Zhou Yuan was a lot more confident.
"Elder Zhu, your disciple's study time is too short, isn't he not very good at choosing materials, the one he chose is too big, he needs to paint a lot of time to carve, and he has only learned painting for a month, I'm afraid that I haven't learned design, if you want to complete an independent carving, it is estimated that it will be very difficult!" Zhou Wenxi said again.
Zhu Lao just shook his head this time, and he didn't know what to say.
Wang Yun didn't seem to be able to understand things in a normal situation, and he knew from Qi Lao that what Wang Yun had done after he first came into contact with jade carving was also shocked.
With the ability to be around, Wang Yun naturally doesn't have to take the usual steps of others.
Just as Zhou Yuan was about to finish painting the pattern on the jade material, a familiar voice suddenly came from the side and back.
