Li Junhao is really short of money now, it's not that he wants to buy a car or rent a house, the car doesn't matter, Liu Hai also gave him the address and key of his house, and he can live temporarily.

The reason why he is short of money is because he has no legal ID card so far, and it is difficult to move an inch without an ID card in this era, otherwise he will go directly to Dongcheng by high-speed train or plane, and he can't even take a car.

For this purpose, I used my mobile phone to check the Internet, and found that some people said that there are black channels for applying for certificates, but the price is not cheap, and I learned that it takes about 50,000 yuan or more after calling to inquire, and the money on my body is not enough for the time being, so I have a headache how to make some money first.

I have a lot of skills that I learned when I was bored, but I don't need them now, and I think carving shouldn't be difficult, my hands are very steady, my strength is enough, and the carving speed is also very fast, just suitable for making a quick buck.

So he asked Boss Jiang and said, "If I make a wood carving, the kind that is more beautiful than the "Qingming Riverside Picture" just now, will you accept it?"

"You engraved?"

Boss Jiang smiled, probably amused, thinking that after all, he was a young man, and he was a stunned young man with a higher heart than the sky, and when he saw others making money, he thought he could make money.

I was too lazy to persuade him to be a wicked person, patted Li Junhao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You can try it, the price of high-quality wood carving works has risen all the way recently, and those woodcarvers I know who are a little famous are not short of money."

The work is on the one hand, fame and wood itself are also important, if someone helps to hype, the price will rise even more, such as Master Bao's piece, if you are not lucky enough to be on the TV show, it will sell for six or seven hundred thousand.

The one you just saw, the carver really has nothing to say, but it's not top-notch, I once saw an old man carve six poems on such a small grain of rice! a hundred and forty words in all!

Come on, as long as you have the talent to practice for a few more years, you can do it too!"

Knowing that he didn't believe in himself, Li Junhao smiled calmly and told: "I have also carved words on rice grains, and I have carved more than 170 words...... Kitchen knives. ”

For this sentence, even Zhu Hejun, who has known him for a long time, doesn't believe it, he has heard of others carving words on rice grains, but if he wants to say that he carved more than 170 words with a kitchen knife, he doesn't believe it in his heart, he originally thought that Li Junhao was stable, but at the moment he also thought that he was bragging, and he was blowing to the sky.

The mind of wanting to make friends with this "junior" has faded a lot, and he has already paid 2,000 yuan to Li Junhao to repay the favor, and the relationship between them belongs to the kind that has reached the point, at this time he said with a smile: "Xiao Li, if you can carve a work like "Qingming Riverside Picture", then do you still have to worry about selling it?"

When the time comes, naturally some people are vying for bids, and those Western oil painters and sculptors, our traditional handicrafts in China have declined in the world, and they cannot be sold at a particularly high price, but they are definitely not low.

In the past, someone carved a 12-meter-long ebony relief of "Five Hundred Arhats", which was finally sold for more than 16 million yuan and changed the house in Dongcheng.

What are you going to do now, stay in Yangdong for a few more days, or send you directly to Dongcheng?"

Li Junhao naturally understands the truth that hearing is false and seeing is believing, and he doesn't mind being despised by them, things can only be considered true when they are made, and nodded: "I'll stay for a few more days, carve some things for money and leave."

Boss Jiang, I'll give you your mobile phone number, and if anyone asks about that painting, come to me.

I'm going to buy some wood, and I'm going to buy a set of carving tools, thank Brother Zhu for your hospitality, and I'll treat you to a meal in a few days......"

Boss Jiang wrote down the number, looked at Li Junhao's back and said, "Alas, young people nowadays, all of them have hearts higher than the sky.

Take my son as an example, after graduation, I can't pick and choose, I can't look down on a job as small as a few thousand yuan, I think it takes at least 8,000 yuan, and I don't want to think about what I can do, if it weren't for my son, I would be too lazy to meddle in things.

If they don't bump their heads in society, they don't understand what reality is like. ”

Zhu Hejun's wife felt that it was not good to gossip behind her back, but she felt that it was very reasonable, and she also looked at Li Junhao, and said in her mouth: "I think he is different from other young people, but I can't say what is different, maybe he really has the ability." ”

Boss Jiang thought it was funny, "He?

If he is a master carver, then everyone can do this, look at that dress, like, what master has not been in this industry for many years before he has developed a real skill......

The content of the chat between the three of them fell into Li Junhao's ears word for word, and he smiled indifferently and walked into a large yard selling logs......

*****************************

The sound of sawing wood is quite noisy, the weather is already hot, and the harsh noise makes people even more irritable.

It was getting dark, and many people were working shirtless in the wood factory, and trucks were driving out, with the back of the truck full of cut planks.

Nearly half of the factory in Yangdong specializes in processing wood into goods, and there are many companies that buy wood nearby, and the reason why this company called "Dahui Timber" was chosen is because Li Junhao smelled the strong smell of red sandalwood from here.

Since there is red sandalwood, it means that there will be no shortage of good wood here, from Boss Jiang's words just now, he learned that the better the wood used, the more valuable the things made, since he decided to do it, it is naturally more cost-effective to make high-quality products.

In these years, if you don't wear a good clothes and drive a good car, no one cares about walking on the road.

At this moment, Li Junhao also encountered such a situation, and after watching Dahui Timber Company for a long time, it was all ordinary wood, and no one paid attention to him, just as air.

Stopping in front of a locked warehouse, you can see through the iron railing that there are logs inside, which are obviously much more valuable than the ordinary wood stacked outside, red sandalwood, ebony, nanmu, etc., and even a very thick dragon's blood!

In this world, dragon's blood wood is difficult to grow, from a small sapling to twenty centimeters, it takes at least five thousand years, and the diameter of the root inside is more than forty centimeters, and it is estimated that it has experienced tens of thousands of years.

Because it has been cut down too much, it is about to become extinct in modern times, and it has been protected, and the weathered bark of this log should be an old wood cut down before, dark red in color, and it is also beautiful without painting.

Finally someone noticed Li Junhao, an old man wearing black white short sleeves, leaned over at this moment and asked, "Little brother, what will you do when you come to apply for a job?"

Li Junhao replied to him: "I want to buy some wood, how do you calculate the price of these?"

It doesn't need to be too big, half a square is enough, I don't have much money on my body, and I want to buy some wood carving things. ”

There is only a little bit of wood in half a square, but because it is good wood, it can be regarded as a small business, and the old man showed a smile: "Okay, you wait here, I'll go and find the boss to talk to you......"
