Chapter 86: Serpentine Wood [Add more to the Lord of the Falling Dream Yi Rudder!]
"Mr. Wu?" Lu Zi'an smiled slightly: "I'm sorry, the light is too dark to see clearly, let's go, it's cold outside, let's go in and talk." β
Wu Yu shivered from the cold, but he still held on, and dashingly pressed the cigarette butt to the ground with his fingers: "It's okay, it's not too cold." β
Looking at his frozen black lips, Lu Zi'an said: I believe in your evil.
Sitting on the sofa, although he drank a cup of hot water, Wu Yu finally relaxed, and said with a smile: "Master Lu, I came this time to officially invite you on behalf of the Jianglin City Expo, and the organizer specially sent me over to accompany me throughout the process.
This is quite skillful, but in fact, it is a sentence to put it bluntly.
When he first agreed, Lu Zi'an was not so famous, and they were afraid that he would miss the appointment, so they specially sent an acquaintance who had something to do with him.
Lu Zi'an couldn't help but want to laugh a little: "It seems that the Jianglin City Expo is at the beginning of next month, right? Isn't there still ten days left?"
"No, it's next week!" Wu Yu's eyes widened, and he secretly sighed that he was good to come: "Because of the conflict with the time of another expo, it was a few days in advance, and the organizer specially sent you an email and a message, didn't you receive it?"
"Uh, sorry, I've been too busy these days for me to watch. Lu Zi'an didn't expect this: "That's okay, I'll clean up the things in my hands in the next few days." β
Wu Yu hesitated for a moment before he said, "Well, that's the case, Master Lu, what the organizer means, is that if you can take a piece of work to participate in the exhibition, it will be better......"
This one......
Lu Zi'an frowned, Wu Yu had a good relationship with Zhuo Peng, and he was also bold, he didn't want to refuse directly, but he didn't say it before, and now he suddenly asked him to take a work out......
He didn't want to.
First of all, not to mention that there is no time to come, just talking about the materials, he may not be able to find what satisfies him.
It is not necessary for too small pieces to participate in the exhibition, since the other party has made such a request, he must also hope to use it as a faΓ§ade, and by the way, he is also taking advantage of his current limelight to brush up on his popularity.
But why?
Lu Zi'an didn't want to go to the chase, the reason why he agreed to participate in this expo was because of the Bai family and the World Heritage Application, if he said last time, he might agree, but this sudden request felt like he was trying to coerce him.
He didn't like it.
So he frowned slightly, and said calmly: "I'm sorry, it's too late." β
Wu Yu has been searching for all kinds of materials all these years, of course, he is a good person, he only glanced at it and knew that he was not happy, and smiled heartily: "Okay, then I'll go back and tell them, yes, watching your live broadcast in the past few days is so tiring, and the time is so rushed, how can it be in time, I said them at the time......"
He is very good at chatting, and Lu Zi'an is naturally not angry, so he quickly threw away the unpleasant idea, and the two talked about various woods, but they talked quite speculatively.
"That time I saw a stump, so big!" Wu Yu gestured: "At that time, the man was carrying it, saying that he would take it back and cut it down and dry it as firewood, hey, I'll go, my heart is dripping blood, it's green sandalwood!"
Green sandalwood is indeed rare, and Lu Zi'an couldn't help but say with interest: "Then what about later, did you buy it?"
"Bought it. Wu Yu Lezizi: "The woodcutter doesn't know the goods, he said that he dug it on the mountain, I quickly asked him to take me up the mountain, alas, it's a pity that I didn't see a single piece of wood, and I don't know whether it was stolen or used as firewood, it's a pity." β
It's a shame indeed.
Wu Yu is well-informed, and some of his interesting travel experiences are very vivid, and Lu Zi'an listens very energetically.
even secretly pondered, as the saying goes, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read ten thousand books, perhaps, he should walk more and see more?
Speaking of the rise, Wu Yu simply flipped out the photo on his mobile phone: "Look, this is a good piece of wood I found last time, look at this color, this core, tsk......t"
"Hey, wait a minute. Lu Zi'an saw a picture of interest: "This seems to be ...... It's serpentine. β
"Yes, yes, yes. Wu Yu narrowed his eyes and looked nostalgic: "This piece of wood is also quite interesting, I didn't really have much hope at the time, but I habitually went to the wood city when I was traveling, and I found this piece of good material." β
Serpentine is one of the most valuable timber in the world, and it is very rare and difficult to harvest, so it is very expensive.
Its density and strength make it the densest and heaviest wood in the world.
The heartwood has irregular black spots and patterns, and the patterns are variable, mostly snake-like, which is where its name comes from.
This unique dark pattern is partly formed by resin, with strong luster, fine structure, straightforward text, extremely corrosion-resistant, insect-resistant, smooth cutting surface, and good polishability.
Wu Yu blinked: "Master Lu is not interested in this piece of wood, if you like it, I'll take it, it just so happens to be in Changyan City!"
This piece of wood is really rare, the pattern is magnificent, and it is indeed a rare good material.
But because it was too valuable, Lu Zi'an hurriedly shook his head: "No, I just think it's quite rare." β
Although Wu Yu is very rich and generous, he can't do this kind of thing to take the favor of others.
"Oh, it's okay, I've kept it because I can't find a suitable woodcarving master, but if it's Master Lu, I think it's okay at all. β
"I really don't need to ......"
As he was talking, Zhuo Peng happened to come out, and he couldn't believe it when he saw Wu Yu: "Brother Yu, when did you come?"
"It's early! was closed by Zou Kai's little Wang Balamb, and the cold wind blew outside for a long time. Wu Yu said angrily: "What bad things are you doing in your nest?"
"Don't talk nonsense, it's the three of us. Zhuo Peng yawned and sat down next to him: "You came to find Master Lu, is there something wrong?"
"Hehe, three people can do bad things. Wu Yu raised his eyebrows and threw a look you know: "Didn't I have an official everywhere to play, they found me this time, let me pick up Master Lu to go to Jianglin City to participate in the expo, hey, are you going?"
Zhuo Peng thought for a moment, and looked at Lu Zi'an with a little hesitation: "Master Lu, are you really going to participate?"
Lu Zi'an was stunned, he didn't expect to ask: "Well, of course, I promised before, what's wrong?"
"Hmm......" Zhuo Peng frowned and said, "Do you remember the Wenkang at my grandfather's birthday banquet last time?"
Lu Zi'an nodded: "Remember." β
"I asked Zhuo Lun later, and he said that this Wenkang has something to do with the Bai family in Jianglin City. Zhuo Peng is actually not used to talking about people behind his back like this, so his words are relatively dry: "I heard that there is a blood feud between them, the details are not clear, but the source seems to be in the Bai family......"
He didn't say anything until he clicked, but Lu Zi'an still understood what he meant.
After the turmoil last time, Lu Zi'an went to Jianglin City this time, as long as he showed his position a little, he would definitely offend the other side if he stood on one side.
Wen Kang looked okay last time, at least he could admit his shortcomings calmly, but the person behind him couldn't say it well.
Last time, he was able to make such a move, but this time he wants to face it, and the other party will definitely not give up.
Without much thought, he decided, "I'll go anyway." β
