Chapter 033, Chen Jinling resigned
"Let's make a table this afternoon. Grandpa saw that Ye Ziqi had made up his mind and said to him with a smile.
"Grandpa, then I have to prepare the materials first, how to cut these bamboos, what to do?, how to do the table top and table legs?" Ye Ziqi asked.
"The table legs are very good, just use a piece of Nanzhu, of course, between the four table legs, but also use beams to erect it, so as not to scatter. The main trouble is to make the tabletop, which needs to be made with double-layer bamboo, and it must be polished flat and smooth. Grandpa said.
"Then let's make the desktop first, grandpa, you will guide, and I will do it. Ye Ziqi nodded and said.
"First, select a bamboo with the thickest thickness, divide it into several sections of one meter and five long, and then cut each section from the middle, and then cut it into four pieces. Grandpa was on the side.
"The thickest bamboo, then this one seems to be the thickest, can you use it?" Ye Ziji looked around and found that there was a bamboo that was thicker than the sea bowl.
"This one will do. Grandpa nodded, and then sawed it into several sections of one meter and five lengths with a hacksaw during the leaf period, and then used a thick-backed machete to cut four of the Nanzhu from the middle, and then cut the two halves of the cut again, and finally each section of Nanzhu was cut into four pieces.
"See, after being cut like this, this side of Nanzhu looks a little flat. But it's not really neat, if you put it together like this, there will be unevenness, and the surface of the final table is uneven. Grandpa pointed to the surface of Nanzhu and said to the leaf period.
"I see, this surface is still curved, we have to find a way to smooth it out, right?" Ye Ziqi nodded and asked, and the eldest brother Ye Yongqiang was confused next to him, and he didn't know what his grandfather and younger brother were talking about.
"Now you need to sand some of these two sides, and then cut the edges of the other piece thinly, and when they stick together, they just complement each other and flatten the whole tabletop. Grandpa said.
The next process is very important and critical, and it is also the most test of craftsmanship and carefulness, so after using the advanced study card in the leaf stage, the whole brain becomes clearer.
Ye Ziqi listened carefully to his grandfather's narration, and understood how to polish the edges of Nanzhu, how to observe and grasp the proportions, so that the two Nanzhu could be smoothly glued together when they were glued.
"I see, then I'll try to polish the bamboo chips, grandpa, you can check for me." Ye Ziqi nodded after hearing this, and began to try.
The two pieces of bamboo that were started to be polished were either too thick or too thin, and when combined with other pieces of bamboo, they would appear high and low on one side, so the leaves were left aside and the new pieces of bamboo were re-polished.
He was not in a hurry, but observed while polishing to understand the feeling that his grandfather said, and finally after a few attempts, he polished the bamboo chips that his grandfather approved.
"That's right, there are small problems with the first few pieces of bamboo, and this one is very good. Then polish the bamboo chips, and if you polish them more, you will master the trick. Grandpa said with a smile.
Next, it took more than three hours to polish ten pieces of bamboo that met the requirements, during which he accidentally broke the skin of his fingers, and some of the bamboo pieces were still stained with his blood, but he did not flinch in the slightest.
"The anchor is so dedicated that he has to continue even if his finger is broken, and with this spirit, no matter what he does, he can succeed. ”
"I feel sorry for my anchor, I'll mail you a band-aid right away, and the anchor will remember to check it." ”
"Seeing the anchor working so hard to learn bamboo weaving and bamboo furniture, why shouldn't we work hard?"
"But in order to watch the anchor's live broadcast, I have delayed a lot of work, only tonight I am working overtime, and the anchor should also pay attention to rest. ”
Although Ye Ziqi has not interacted with the audience when he is busy, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room has increased instead of decreasing, and many people are watching his live broadcast while doing things, which is more popular than the noisy live broadcast.
Moreover, seeing that Ye Ziqi didn't stop even wearing out his fingers, and had been working hard to do things, many viewers were very moved, so that the rewards increased a lot.
"Huh, old iron, more than three hours, I finally polished the material of the tabletop, it seems that I can't finish the table today, it's getting dark, and we're delaying everyone's time." ”
When the lights in the yard were turned on, Ye Ziqi called it a day, he waved his hand to the audience very apologetically, wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, and then agreed on the time to start the broadcast the next day, and turned off the live camera.
"Grandpa, how can you glue the tabletop firmly? What did you use before, was it glue?"
"No, it's rice milk, mixed with bamboo shavings, which can become a very strong adhesive, and the table top will be very tight and durable, which will teach you tomorrow." Grandpa said with a smile.
In the evening, Ye Ziqi chatted with his grandfather for a long time, and when his grandfather rested, he began to reflect on the bamboo weaving skills he had learned in the past few days, and at the same time prepared to complete a series of new works.
And a few days have passed, and the previously released series of works about loquat paste have had hundreds of thousands of views and clicks, although they have not been rewarded by the system, but there have been more orders for loquat paste in the past few days.
Ye Ji only needs to send the order information to the staff of the postal company, and they will go to Ye Zi Qi's home once a day to package and mail loquat paste according to the order, so he does not need to help at home in person.
"Brother Ye, when will your company open, I have already resigned. Just as he was about to go to bed, he suddenly received a WeChat message, and it turned out to be from Chen Jinling.
"Ah, why did you resign? I haven't decided on a time yet? The formalities haven't been run down yet. Ye Ziqi asked with some surprise.
Although he said something last time, he didn't think that Chen Jinling really wanted to come to his own company, after all, his company was now a shell, and there was nothing else, and he didn't dare to give her any high salary and guarantees.
"I didn't really like my current job, and for some other reasons, I actually wanted to quit a long time ago, and it wasn't because of what I told you that day. Chen Jinling is also a very smart girl, and she replied that she didn't want Ye Ziqi to have a psychological burden.
"Oh, so what are you going to do next? You don't really want to come to my company, do you? I'm the only one in my company at the moment, and I have a little bit of equipment, and I don't even have start-up capital, so I can't give you much salary. Ye Ziqi said honestly.
