Chapter 403: Buying a Root Carving
readx;
After almost a year, Nie Yun once again came to the only scenic spot in Qiao County that can be handled. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Stepping back into the Floating Cloud Concept, Nie Yun realized that it had been a whole year since he had obtained the ability of the Spirit Wood Pupil.
Lingmu Pupil and Golden Jade Pupil, these two abilities gave Nie Yun everything now!
Nie Yun still remembered that these two abilities of his came from the two jade pendants left by his grandfather, and he didn't know what the origin of these two jade pendants was, but he was able to make himself have such a mysterious ability...... However, there are no wonders in the world, and these two pieces of jade pendant may have been made by some strange person, and finally fell into the hands of Nie Yun's grandfather, and after several twists and turns, they finally came to Nie Yun's hands.
"I don't know, in this world, there are any similar wonderful treasures...... Nie Yun thought secretly in his heart.
But after thinking about it for a while, Nie Yun estimated that such treasures may be almost gone.
The most important reason is that China has experienced a catastrophe, and in that catastrophe, many mysterious and very ancient cultural products have been smashed, and it is estimated that even if there are treasures, they have been destroyed. And at that time, some strange people were also criticized to death, and there was no inheritance...... Generally speaking, that decade was a period of discontinuity in ancient Chinese culture...... Nie Yun can be regarded as a materialist.
It stands to reason that a materialist should believe in science and oppose superstitions.
But precisely because Nie Yun is a materialist with a rational surname, Nie Yun believes that some mysterious and mysterious things may not all be feudal superstitions. Some mysterious things may really exist, but they are not widely discovered and recognized by everyone.
Science is also developing, hundreds of years ago, when the periodic table was not discovered, it was also a mysterious and mysterious thing, and now it has been discovered, is it not included in the category of science?
Maybe one day, these metaphysics will also enter science.
"Those mysterious things are basically lost, I really don't know whether to be happy or sad......" Sighing lightly, Nie Yun couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The loss of these things means that people with abilities like Nie Yun are rare, and this can also show the value of Nie Yun's ability, from this point of view, Nie Yun should be happy. However, the loss of these useful and mysterious things is a loss for the entire human race, and it is worth mourning.
In short, this matter can be regarded as a dialectical question, both good and bad. In short, the result has already been produced, and now Nie Yun can only use his ability to seek a better life for himself and his family and friends.
If the problems around you are solved, then think about it again and make some contributions to mankind. If you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are good, you will help the world!
"Now, let's absorb the aura first!" Thinking in their hearts, Nie Yun and Tian Zhen walked into the Floating Cloud Temple.
The thousand-year-old ginkgo tree still stands in the floating clouds. I haven't seen it for a year, it's still the same, almost unchanged. A year is just a snap of a finger for this thousand-year-old tree.
Without immediately opening the Spirit Wood Pupil, Nie Yun first looked around at the Floating Cloud View.
Looking around, Nie Yun immediately let out a "huh", and in the corner of this floating cloud view, Nie Yun found an old acquaintance.
The uncle who sold wood carvings at the beginning!
After Nie Yun obtained the Lingmu Pupil and the Golden Jade Pupil, his memory also improved a lot, and basically everyone who came into contact with him could remember it more or less. For example, this uncle who sells wood carvings, Nie Yun and Tian Zhen came to Fuyun Temple a year ago, and the people they came into contact with, except for a Taoist priest in Fuyun Temple, are this uncle who sells wood carvings, so naturally I still remember it.
Glancing at the stall of this uncle selling wood carvings, Nie Yun couldn't help but be stunned.
Because, in this uncle's stall, Nie Yun can no longer find the original handmade wood carvings, and there are no more roots that have just been dug up. On this stall, there are still some wood carving knick-knuckle souvenirs and the like, but, like other stalls, these wood carving knick-knuckles are all industrialized machines polished in batches...... In Nie Yun's heart, he sighed lightly.
At the beginning, the business of this uncle who sold wood carvings was not very good, and he bought a few wood carvings from him in order to buy the roots.
Now it seems that this uncle gave up handmade wood carving and sold the wood carving made by these machines, which obviously shows that handmade wood carving has almost no market...... Before, Nie Yun was still lamenting that some of China's mysterious ancient culture had been lost, and now, Nie Yun witnessed with his own eyes that the wood carving culture on this side of Fuyun Mountain will also be lost!
After thinking about it in his heart, Nie Yun suddenly made up his mind.
"Xiao Zhen, let's go, let's go to the wood carving booth over there and have a look!" As he spoke, Nie Yun took Tian Zhen and walked towards the wood carving stall.
"Little brother, look at the wood carvings? The wood carvings on my side are all high-quality, absolutely exquisite, and the price is the same as that of other stalls, buy two to make a souvenir, right? It's okay to send a girlfriend! ”
When the uncle who sold wood carvings saw Nie Yun and Tian Zhen coming, he didn't recognize Nie Yun and Tian Zhen for a while, but just greeted him warmly.
Nie Yun glanced at it and found that this uncle had a small file in his hand, and in addition, there were several small carving knives in this stall.
Nie Yun also found that although the wood carvings on this stall are basically industrialized products, each one is indeed very exquisite, and some of the rough parts of the machine manufacturing seem to have been re-polished by hand and newly smeared with tung oil. Overall, it does look much better than the other stalls.
"Uncle, I remember that you used to make root carvings, right? Why do you get these gadgets now? Picking up a small wooden carving, Nie Yun asked the uncle.
"Oh? Little brother, have you seen me before? The uncle was stunned, and couldn't help but look up at Nie Yun and Tian Zhen more.
And in the next moment, a touch of joy immediately appeared on this uncle's face, obviously recognizing Nie Yun and Tian Zhen.
"Little brother, is that you? Did you come to Fuyun Mountain last year? You also bought a lot of carvings from me, and asked for a piece of old roots, didn't you? ”
This middle-aged uncle's memory is obviously not bad.
However, there are some reasons why this uncle can remember Nie Yun and Tian Zhen.
The first one is that Nie Yun's temperament and Tian Zhen's beauty are both more dazzling, basically this uncle sells root carvings in the floating cloud view, and in a year, he may not be able to see a girl who is more beautiful than Tian Zhen. For beautiful girls, this uncle's impression is always deeper.
Another important reason is that the biggest business that this uncle has made in selling root carvings over the years is probably the pile of root carvings sold to Nie Yun that time...... After that, for two months, this middle-aged uncle had a bleak business, and there was no way to start buying some of these industrialized wood carving products to sell.
Because of this, for Nie Yun, this uncle was naturally able to think of it immediately.
"Uncle is so good to remember his surname, there are so many people coming and going in Fuyunguan here, you can still remember us!" Nie Yun smiled at the uncle and said.
"Hehe, like the little brother, I like root carving so much, but there are very few, so I naturally remember it a little deeper." The uncle laughed.
"It just so happens that you two are here, I've been idle lately, and I've got a few small things, all of which are worthless goods, so you can play with them." Compared to these, my carving skills are not good, and it does not look exquisite, so I don't need money, I will give it to you! As he spoke, the uncle took out two small carved objects from a bag he was carrying.
Seeing that although this uncle sold these wood carvings, he had not yet put down his root carving skills, Nie Yun was a little relieved.
"Uncle, we have accepted these small items, but let's not talk about this yet, there is a matter, I want to talk to you, uncle!" Without immediately taking over these small root carvings, Nie Yun looked at the uncle and said.
"Oh? Little brother, what's the matter? The uncle was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but ask subconsciously.
"A little bit of business. Uncle, what is your surname? It's been a few years since you made this carving, right? Nie Yun said casually.
"Your surname is Liu, I have been a hobby since I was a child, and I learned a little bit from my father." Hehe smiled, this Uncle Liu said.
"That's what it looks like, Uncle Liu, I opened a farmhouse in Qiao County, which is mainly green and healthy. In addition, I also have a large catering club in the provincial capital, which focuses on green, healthy and natural. These places of mine are in need of some natural root carving ornaments. I wanted to get some before, but the root carving ornaments on the market are all industrialized products, the same, not very good, I mainly want some handmade. I want to ask, uncle, are you interested in helping us make some handmade? Nie Yun smiled and said to this Uncle Liu.
These hotels of Nie's Catering need all-natural decorations.
Among them, bonsai is the most important, but in addition to bonsai, some wood carving root carving is also very necessary.
It just so happened that Nie Yun met this uncle this time, and in line with the idea of helping this uncle by the way and not letting the root carving skills be lost, Nie Yun simply proposed to buy some root carving objects made by this uncle.
"What? Little brother, do you want to use a handmade root carving? ”
Hearing Nie Yun's words, this Uncle Liu's eyes couldn't help but light up.
"It's simple, how much do you want, what kind of do you need, just say a number. I will do my best to ensure the quality of you in the shortest possible time! Patting his chest, this Uncle Liu said to Nie Yun without hesitation.
