Chapter 4 Public Auction
"Yes, old Xi, I didn't say you, where did you get this object from, and what are you doing with a hammer next to you, are you preparing for auction? If you're going to auction it, it's just a matter of saying that we really want to accept this work, so why bother making it so complicated and saying that your son made it. Huge Hai, who is in the furniture business, said at this time.
"Boss Pang, don't get involved in the affairs of our art circle, I have been carving for so many years, and I have never seen such a perfect work of carving, I am willing to accept this masterpiece and study it carefully." Xi Lao Liudao.
"Xi Lao Liu, what you say is hatred, am I not from the art circle? When I make furniture, I also pay attention to the quality of artistic means. It's you, indiscriminately! I haven't seen you carve anything good in a few years. The huge sea blows its nose and glares.
"You,"
"You..."
The two of them glared angrily and rattled with each other.
"Alright, don't argue." Xi Gui clapped his hands at this time to stop the two, his face was full of smiles, and he said loudly: "I, Xi Gui, invited you over today, not to auction this Monkey King. Seriously, I just want you to enjoy this work. Also, this Monkey King was really carved by my son! The child is not talented, but the thing that is angry is that he has studied hard all these years, and finally improved his carving skills, if everyone doesn't believe it, I will pull my dog out. Let him carve one for everyone in person. ”
"Why don't I believe it so much, old Xi."
"yes, don't tease us." The talk started again.
Xi Gui didn't speak this time, he waved his hand at Wang Jinxiu sternly, and his wife on the side received this order and was just about to enter the house to call Xi Qing.
The kid walked out with a knife in his left hand and a wood from yesterday's beating in his right hand.
Xi Gui walked, carved, and said: "Uncles, hello. The wood in my hand is the embryo of the Monkey King who was beaten last night, and I believe that if I continue to carve down, everyone can see whether this work was carved by me. Below, Xi Qing is not talented, so he will be ugly. ”
The carving knife in Xi Qing's left hand flew like a butterfly wing at this time, and the sawdust was dazzling for a while, Xi Qing's knife left no traces, and it was mellow and handled, and the strength of the wood seemed to be small, but it just rightly expressed the love of Monkey King;
Xi Gui and Wang Jinxiu, who looked at him seriously, were pleased, and the fathers and villagers in the same village were even more dazzled, but everyone who was in the know was already a mirror in their hearts: this kid can, just a chisel knife carved so finely? With no other aids, not even lights, he carved bluefruit wood from the morning sun, which had not yet woken up. Look at this level, it must be really what it does.
Xi Qing walked to the center of the crowd, he was not flustered, he held the knife steadily, passing in front of the fathers and villagers, the craftsmanship was not dragging the mud and water, and the psychological element was even better.
The last few knives are like a pen walking dragon snake, dotting the eye, raising the mouth, angry, the charm of the Monkey King is permeating, he turned around at this time, and hammered the carved work on the table so hard, "snap", it's done!
"Okay, done!"
The Monkey King who had just been made was placed aside at this time, just like the original, vivid.
After painting him, the Monkey King, who was wearing "gold" armor, a "gold" crown and a top, a sharp mouth and teeth, and fiery eyes, was freshly baked, blinding everyone!
Xi Qing will be embarrassed, and said politely: "My clumsy work is complete, seniors, it's ugly!" ”
It was not only Xi Gui and his son who participated in the Gendiao Art Festival 12 years ago, but also many old artists. At that time, the Monkey King carved by Mr. Lin Fashu was bought by a collector for 3,000 yuan.
It was twelve years ago, and the Monkey King at that time carved it vividly and meticulously, and people in the carving circle thought it was the pinnacle. But I never thought that twelve years later, a young man in his early twenties, a little-known student, would surpass the former?
This carving of his is full of inexplicable charm and substitution, which makes people seem to have traveled into Journey to the West at once, and followed Sun Wukong to hunt demons and subdue demons.
And, in just a few minutes, a few minutes to finish the light, an ordinary chisel carving knife? How is this possible. But it happened!
Talented!
Absolute genius.
"Is it you, is it really you?"
Xi Qing just smiled faintly, but she was thanking her sister in her heart.
"Okay." Xi Liu, the artist, was dressed and clapped his hands.
"Miao, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really couldn't believe that Xi Gui and your son have such skills. Xi Qing, you are amazing! This great sage has definitely created a classic. The huge sea then gave a thumbs up and praised.
"It's so powerful, it's really powerful, and the technique doesn't lose to those masters." The villagers began to admire.
Xi Gui smiled on the side: "Xiao'er, this is also thanks to God's love, and everyone praises it." ”
"I said Xi Gui, your son's carving is really good, you see, such a good carving, you put out a table and a hammer, if you want me to say it, auction it, right?"
"Yes. Lao Pang said that this idea is good, Lao Xi, we are willing to pay a high price to buy this sandalwood Monkey King Great Sage Eagle. You're going to auction it, right? "I knew the dampness of wood, and I began to have the idea of wood carving.
The radiant Xi Gui waved his hand and shook his head: "Hey, where can I be in charge of this, this is my son's work, you have to ask him?" ”
In the huge sea, Xi Liu and the others hurriedly looked at Xi Qing, "Xi Qing, you carving?" ”
"This... My dad is in charge. ”
Xi Qing was very firm, he looked at his father obediently, his eyes were full of affection: "Dad, my son hasn't made you happy all these years, and finally has a work to take, in order to repay your nurturing feelings for so many years, this Monkey King will be the first gift I give you, so, this is your thing." It's up to you whether you want to auction or not! ”
"Give it to me?" Xi Gui's heart was crisp all of a sudden, and his son gave it to him, and Xi Gui understood that he wanted to use this work to make himself happy. It's rare for a son to have this heart.
Xi Gui smiled, and his moved eyes couldn't help but burst into tears: "Okay." Good. Since my son sent it to me, then I, Old Man Xi, will accept it. I called you, and you're here, and I can't let you go like that. I will obey the will of the people and auction this Monkey King carving??? ”
"Yes, you're the best, old Xi."
"Old Xi, well, it's sold."
Xi Gui raised his voice and smiled at his son: "Ahem, cough, ahem....you bid, my son carved the Monkey King sandalwood carving, the reserve price is 10,000, and each time the bid price is 5,000, the rule is one sentence: the highest bidder wins, the auction starts now." ”
