Xue Yuying took out her notebook and transferred money directly online, and soon, Xie Bin received a prompt from the bank, looking at the balance prompt on the account, Xie Bin was a little excited, the deposit was almost 200,000, which was unimaginable a few years ago.

Of course, Xie Bin likes this generous patron even more, and he can't wait for Xue Yuying to patronize his stall every day. I have only known Xue Yuying for less than a month, and he has almost 110,000 yuan in consumption here Xie Bin.

Seeing Xue Yuying happily hugging the horse and stepping on Feiyan, and then looking at Lao Wang's wry smile, Xie Bin also secretly smiled. This old king wants to do good deeds, who knows that people don't appreciate it. Indeed, if Lao Wang talks about bargaining again, maybe Xie Bin can drop another 10,000 yuan, but unfortunately Miss Xue was frightened by Xie Bin's painful expression.

In fact, this situation is normal, in front of an expert like Lao Wangtou, Xie Bin's little tricks really can't fool him, the market price is **10,000 yuan, as long as Lao Wang bites and doesn't relax, Xie Bin can only loosen his mouth at that time. That is, a girl like Miss Xue who has not experienced the world will be frightened by Xie Bin.

Anyway, now both parties are happy, no one can say anything, as usual, Xie Bin gave Xue Yuying a receipt, which is also a common practice to avoid some trouble.

At the end of the transaction between the two parties, Lao Wang asked with a smile: "Xiao Xie, in half a month, our city will hold a traditional culture exhibition, are you interested in showing your hands?" ”

"Huh? Exhibition? What can I do when I go? "Xie Bin really doesn't know what he can do when he gets to that place, do you want to perform carving? But it takes a day to carve a work at the earliest, who has the patience to wait and see?

"You can take all the good things stored at home to the exhibition, maybe someone will take a fancy to your treasures, let me tell you, the people who will go there are all like this business, and they all have spare money, you can kill two knives," Lao Wang said mysteriously.

Xie Bin's heart moved, this is a good opportunity, maybe he can take the opportunity to make a name for himself, well, if he can get two more big ones, he can buy a good second-hand house. Thinking of this, Xie Bin hurriedly asked, "What's the requirement for this?" ”

"Of course there is, the main invitation is our elites from all walks of life, but bamboo and wood carving is not a big project, there are fewer people, I just have two or two places, how about it?" Lao Wang explained.

"Go, of course!" As long as he can make a fortune, Xie Bin will naturally not be afraid, and as Lao Wang said, most of the people in that place have spare money and have a certain ability to appreciate, it is simply a good opportunity sent by God, if he misses it, God will not forgive him.

"Okay, Xiao Xie, you go back and prepare, prepare a few more objects of various forms and themes, and I'll fill in two forms for you next week, sign up for you, and take a place."

"Thank you, Mr. Wang, thank you," Xie Bin is sincerely grateful, such an exhibition, without a certain reputation and connections, it is difficult to enter, that is, Lao Wang is the president of the Engraving Association, otherwise others want to vacate a place, I am afraid it will be a little difficult.

When he returned home, Xie Bin took stock of himself and found that there were really a few good things, especially the ones left to him by his grandfather, but Xie Bin didn't plan to make a move for the time being, so he could only choose from his own works.

Xie Bin's own inventory is quite a lot, there are hundreds of pieces, all of which are saved in the off-season and usually, but the quality is uneven, and the quality of some wood is not very good. If you want to put it on the exhibition stand, it has to be a boutique.

Carefully selected, more than 30 of the top ones were selected, but most of them are traditional themes, and the creativity is not novel enough, so they need to be supplemented.

Lao Wang said that there is still half a month to go, except for four days of Sunday, that is, ten days, but he can complete a few representative works. For this reason, Xie Bin decided to temporarily stop Xue Yuying's Transformers series, but he thought that although this Transformers cannot be considered mainstream, it is much more attractive to the younger generation, and it can also be put on the table to attract business when the time comes.

Thinking of this, Xie Bin sped up and completed the remaining few transformers. With the experience of the previous times, Xie Bin engraved the twelve transformers that Xue Yuying asked for before Saturday, including supporting roles such as the wheel, dinosaurs, and the Thunder Rescue Team. These transformers are just the pursuit of a vivid image, unlike traditional themes, which have very important requirements for the meaning and artistic conception of the work, so Xie Bin can carve two almost a day, plus the assistance of special abilities, Xie Bin's work speed is very terrifying.

In addition to Transformers, Xie Bin also carved more than a dozen anime characters, the popular One Piece, Hokage Death, etc., as well as the colored Mickey Mouse, and also specially carved a set of Slam Dunk series ornaments. These small ornaments, regardless of other aspects, this image is vivid enough, realistic enough, I believe it can attract the attention of many people.

A few days later, Liu Wenqing's college entrance examination was over, and when she ran into this girl when she went home, Xie Bin asked with a smile: "Wenwen, how was the exam?" ”

"Don't worry, Brother Xie, Capital University, it's all right," Liu Wenqing said with a smile, and at the end she reached out and gestured with a scissor hand, okay, it's very cute.

"Okay, when you start school, I'll give you a gift, don't refuse," Xie Bin said with a smile.

"Really? What gift? ”

"Keep it secret for the time being," Xie Bin laughed, "Have a good time with your summer vacation, and give you a surprise when the time comes." ”

"Alas, there is no summer vacation, my mother wants me to go out to experience life," Liu Wenqing said about her summer vacation, crying and sad.

"Experience life?" Xie Bin asked puzzled.

Liu Wenqing explained: "That's right, it's just to go out to work, saying that I want me to feel the difficulty of making money in advance, and take Brother Xie as an example." ”

Xie Bin smiled bitterly, can this person be compared with others, if Xie Bin also has a complete family and a rich father, it is estimated that he is no different from ordinary playful children. But it's not bad to let this girl experience the difficulties of life, and she can earn some pocket money. Thinking of the last Sunday, Xie Bin suddenly said: "Why don't you come to me, go out to the stall for two days a week, and the salary is set at 5% of the daily income, how about it?" ”

Xie Bin didn't think about anything else, mainly because in the past few weeks, the weather is so hot, but there are a lot of tourists, the inventory is consumed quickly, there are two or three thousand income every day, and there are two days after five thousand, Xie Bin has to hurry up and stock up on more things. If there is a young man like Xiao Wenwen on the side to help, Xie Bin can also spare most of his efforts to carve when he is out of the stall.

Usually when Xie Bin is alone, although he does not stop, but there are often customers who ask, the speed of embryoming is very slow, if there is a helper to help deal with most of the customers, Xie Bin can complete two to three embryos a day, two months down, can be more than 30 pieces.

"Really, Brother Xie? I asked my mother to go," Liu Wenqing ran home in surprise when she heard Xie Bin's proposal.

Soon, Liu Wenqing pulled her mother and ran down, and Sister Liu said embarrassedly: "Xiao Xie, if you need help, let this girl follow you, don't say anything about money, just let her exercise more." ”

Xie Bin smiled: "Then how can I do it, I can do what I have to do," after speaking, I was afraid that Sister Liu would not be at ease, and added: "Sister Liu, don't worry, Wenwen is very capable, and she helped my boss last Sunday." ”

"Then, okay, let this girl do more work when the time comes, lest she be lazy, otherwise she will know how to sleep at home, and she doesn't look like a girl at all," Sister Liu said with a smile.

"Mom, don't say a word," Liu Wenqing stopped doing it, shaking her mother's arm coquettishly.

Xie Bin smiled, "Okay, then it's decided, and the salary will be paid together at the end, so as not to let Wenwen spend money indiscriminately." After speaking, he smiled at Liu Wenqing and said, "Come to me when you have time, teach you some basic knowledge, and you can use it when the time comes." ”

"Okay, okay," Liu Wenqing also wished that he could get out of the monitoring of his parents, there was no one who didn't agree.

took Liu Wenqing to answer in her room, took out various types of objects, taught her to know wood, understand the meaning of various themes, and told her the approximate price, and talked about some tips for asking for prices, etc. In fact, Xie Bin didn't expect this girl to really become a qualified shopkeeper all of a sudden, but she just needed to be able to deal with most of the lively customers.

In the antique street, there are countless tourists every day, and there are more inquiries to see the excitement, but there are few who can really spend money, and it is good to have a dozen or so in a day. If there was no harassment of watching the excitement, Xie Bin would concentrate on playing embryos, and the speed would be much faster.

After teaching for a while, Xie Bin had to sigh, this girl's comprehension is really good, she is worthy of being able to go to a prestigious university, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she can draw inferences, which makes Xie Bin a little jealous of this girl's cleverness.

On Saturday morning, Xie Bin took Liu Wenqing to the antique street again, Xue Yuying waved at Xie Bin from a distance, and said with a smile: "You are worthy of being a rich man, this is a standing secretary." ”

"There, it's far worse than Miss Xue, and I need you to take care of it," Xie Bin also said with a smile, and then explained: "Wenwen just finished the college entrance examination, take her out to play, and have a long experience." ”

"College entrance examination? It turned out that she was already a girl who was going to college, how was the exam, Wenwen? Xue Yuying asked in surprise. I really can't help but be surprised that Xue Yuying is not surprised, Liu Wenqing looks really cute, she doesn't look like a girl in the third year of high school, and she is about the same in the first year of high school.

"It's okay," Liu Wenqing was very quiet in front of outsiders, and she was embarrassed to say okay.

"Hehe, come on, Wenwen, wait don't follow him in the sun, come to my office to cool off," Xue Yuying said with a smile.

"Don't, Miss Xue, Wenwen wants to earn pocket money, don't seduce people to be greedy for pleasure!" Xie Bin hurriedly stopped, just kidding, buddy offered a five-percent commission, how could she let her follow you to the office to blow the air conditioner?! Anyway, the exhibition is about to start, and he still has to prepare a few good things, so he doesn't dare to let Wenwen leave at this time.

"You are employing child labor, be careful that I expose you," Xue Yuying said with a smile.

"Wenwen is already a big girl, isn't Wenwen?"

"Well, I'm eighteen years old," Wenwen said embarrassedly.

"Cut, ignore the two of you, I'm on duty, Wenwen bye-bye," Xue Yuying pretended to be angry and left.

Liu Wenqing also waved her hand and said goodbye.

Spreading out the stall, Xie Bin took out the prepared wood and began to beat the embryo according to the idea he had conceived. Embryoming is the most basic and important process of a work, the shape of the embryo determines the level of the work, and if the embryo can be laid, the subsequent process can be much easier.

When beating the embryo, it is necessary to plan the level, layout, center of gravity, overall and proportion of the embryo, and initially form the outer and inner contours of the work. At the beginning of the embryo, that is, the rough embryo, it can be advanced from bottom to bottom, from front to back, from the surface to the inside, from shallow to deep, layer by layer. Rough blanks need to be careful to leave leeway, just like cutting clothes, to be appropriately relaxed. Folk jargon is good: "Leave fat can be changed to small, but it is difficult to re-fatten the barren and thin, the inner distance should be small and not large, remember that carving is subtraction." "Then there is the fine blank, which should first focus on the whole, adjust the ratio and various layouts, and then gradually implement and shape the specific form, leaving room for repair. At this stage, the volume and lines of the work have become clearer, so it is required to have a smooth and expressive technique.
