The bricks and stones scattered on the ground also emit a red glow, which is an incredible thing!

He Qing also thought that only antiques of a certain age would emit "treasure light", who knew that an inconspicuous stone on the side of the road also emitted a strange light, so it can be seen that the stone is not simple, maybe there is a big origin, otherwise why so many stones around there is no reaction, only that one has a vision.

At that moment, He Qing couldn't help but look at the stone, only to see that the stone was gray and gray, showing an irregular cuboid shape, which was no different from the other stones around him.

In the blink of an eye, the red light emitted from the stone condensed in front of He Qing's eyes, and immediately, a line of red silk poured into his eyes, and this scene was exactly the same as what he had seen on antiques before.

Immediately afterward, the images began to rewind rapidly......

The stone on the ground flew back to a wall, a secondary wall in the corridor of the jade carving factory, which had been built many years ago and was made of bricks, including leftover jade raw materials, which were scrap.

The stone was cut from a larger piece of jade, and the parent body was a piece of jade that had been transported from far southwest, and the piece of jade was dug up from the mountains by a man and treasured for a long time before finally flowing into the jade market.

"I see!" After the ins and outs of the stone went through He Qing's mind, he suddenly realized that the original stone originated in the Qing Dynasty, and it was also collected by people as a treasure, no wonder it also contains a "wish power".

This shows that the law of the ability is still there, there is no fundamental change, but it is not as simple as He Qing imagined at the beginning, he can not only play the "this life and this life" of antiques, but also the origin of other things, as long as this thing is valued, and the feelings are poured into it.

Even if it's an antique, it's still a gem!

It's just that He Qing doesn't know if it's a piece of treasure jade or a waste stone!

But since it makes people love it, it has its potential value.

"He Qing, what's wrong? And what? ”

Seeing He Qing suddenly stop and land on the ground intently, Gu Qing was stunned for a moment and couldn't help asking.

"Oh, nothing." He Qing came back to his senses, shook his head, and when he walked forward, he deliberately used his foot to take the stone to a dark corner, so as not to attract attention, because he was a little interested in that thing, and he wanted to go back and find a way to take it back and study it, maybe the stone was of some use.

But for a while, he didn't think much of it.

After a while, He Qing found Boss Xiao under the leadership of Gu Qing, who was also a relative of Gu Qing's sister, the director of the "Nancui Jade Carving Factory" and the owner of the first factory.

Gu Qing's friend is a warm-hearted person, and before He Qing and the others came, the other party had already understood the situation with Boss Xiao, so when Boss Xiao saw He Qing, he asked straight to the point: "He, did you learn hand carving or motor carving?" ”

He Qing replied, "Hand-carved." I won't engrave with a motor. ”

He told the truth, because he had only learned manual carving skills from Zigang Yupai, and if he was allowed to operate a high-tech engraving machine, he would have to learn a little, which was obviously not the job he wanted to do.

Boss Xiao said with a smile: "Hand-carved is too exquisite, it requires rich experience in jade carving, and the technology must be excellent. He, what kind of technique are you good at? Is it openwork or shallow carving? Did you join any genre? For example, Beijing jade carving, Shanghai jade carving and the like. ”

He asked several questions in a row, He Qing smiled slightly, and said, "I will order the types of carvings, but what sect I join, which faction I belong to." ”

He is in a class of his own, and he is easy to find whether it is a round sculpture or a relief.

"That's fine." Boss Xiao nodded and said, "We just lack a handicraft apprentice here, I don't know what happened to Master Lu." Qing, He, please sit down for a moment. I'm going to call Master Lu and ask him to talk to you, he is the master in our factory, and I'm asking him for an assistant. ”

"Well, there's no rush." He Qing nodded.

Later, Boss Xiao brought in a person, it was a tall middle-aged man, I saw that the man had big ears and a bit of grace in his gestures.

"Lao Lu, it's this young man, you can talk to him, it's not suitable. He was introduced by my niece, and he should have good craftsmanship. Boss Xiao pointed to He Qing and introduced to the middle-aged man.

"Hello, Master Lu." He Qing politely nodded to the man in greeting.

"Hello. Come with me. Master Lu was obviously a person who didn't like to talk too much, so he beckoned to He Qing and motioned to go with him.

"Gu Qing, you wait in the reception room, I'll go talk to Master Lu." He Qing greeted Gu Qingdao.

"Well, there you go." Gu Qing said in a low voice, "It is estimated that Master Lu is going to test you, this is an interview." You're going to have to do it! ”

"Hehe, thanks, I'll do my best." He Qing replied with a smile, this is just a formality for him, no one knows how deep he is, that Master Lu wants to test his jade carving level is a little ridiculous, in fact, in terms of the real generation, he doesn't know how many generations are higher than the other party, and the other party is almost the same as his apprentice, of course, no one knows about this matter except He Qing himself, and he definitely can't think about it.

At that moment, He Qing followed Master Lu to the place where they worked, and saw that there were many people working in the huge room, and the roaring sounds of various machines were mixed together, which was extremely harsh, and the noisy environment made He Qing a little uncomfortable for the newcomer.

However, he still walked over calmly, and Master Lu was going to come up with some questions to test his carving skills.

"This is an ordinary carving knife, you pick it up and give it to me." When he came to the workbench in the corner of the wall, Master Lu pointed to a knife on the table, he didn't smile from beginning to end, his expression was stern, and he knew that he was the kind of person who didn't smile.

"Hmm." Although He Qing didn't quite understand Master Lu's intentions, he still picked up the knife according to his words, it should be an oblique knife for carving jade, the blade is only three or four centimeters long, but the edge of the blade is very sharp, the cold light is shining, like a scalpel in the doctor's hand.

He Qing often used a knife to sharpen pencils when he was young, but he never took this kind of knife.

But the strange thing is that when the carving knife fell into his hand, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if he had just used it, and the memories of the famous jade carver of the Republic of China who made a living by imitating Zigang jade suddenly poured out.

Completely involuntarily, he played with the knife, which seemed to be held in his hand as if it had grown in his hand, and it seemed so natural.

"yes, that's fine." Seeing this, Master Lu nodded with satisfaction, and then he took out two pieces of jade, one of which had not yet been carved, and the other one had been carved on one side, and some were shallowly carved.

"You can carve this piece and try it, as long as you carve this flower." Master Lu instructed.

"This flower is not well carved." At first sight, He Qing said casually.

"Huh?" Master Lu looked at him with a strange gaze, as if he had doubts.

"Oh, I see. Master Lu, wait, I'll try it right away. Seeing that the other party's face was wrong, He Qing quickly realized that he might have said something wrong, that thing may have come from Master Lu's hand, aren't you questioning the other party's level like this.

But in all fairness, that carved He Qing is really not good!

Because his level is too high, things are condescendingly looking down, so it is naturally easy to come out of the shortcomings of jade carving.

"You carve, call me when you're done." Master Lu greeted, and after that, he turned around and walked to instruct the other jade workers.

As soon as Master Lu walked away, He Qing picked up the carving knife and carved it carefully on the piece of jade, scratching, picking, and stabbing ...... Every knife, every step, is handy, in one go.

"Whew~~"

I don't know how long it took, He Qing was almost done, and his task was completed, so he put away the knife and exhaled.

Subconsciously turning around, He Qing was taken aback, and he didn't know when Master Lu had already walked back and was standing behind him.

"Master Lu." He Qing hurriedly saluted, "I'm done, please take a look." It's ugly. ”

At this moment, Master Lu looked at the jade carving that He Qing had just completed with a look of surprise, and exclaimed: "Not bad, very good!" Brother He, you are such a genius! Young but with such good craftsmanship! Excuse me, who is your master?! ”

Master Lu's voice praising He Qing's craftsmanship was a little loud, and the other jade carvers who were working around turned their heads to look around, with a very surprised look on their faces.

Maybe they rarely hear the unsmiling Master Lu praise a person, especially a novice who comes for an interview.

"I ...... I don't have a teacher, I'm self-taught. I like to carve my favorite shapes and patterns on objects such as wood and stone. Master Lu, let you laugh. He Qing was stunned and replied.

"Self-taught?! How can it be?! Master Lu's face changed greatly, "I didn't see a smile!" Just now, if you weren't an experienced jade carver, you would definitely not be able to do that, it's just easy and superb! Brother He, do you know?! In this respect, you are a genius that is rare in a century! ”

"Master Lu, you've won the prize." He Qing shook his head and said modestly, he was a little embarrassed to hear the other party praise him so much.

At the same time, the people next to him were already talking to He Qing one after another, and their eyes were full of envy when they looked at him.

"Brother He, since you have used the knife in this work, then take it back and finish it, there is no reference, it is all up to you to play." Master Lu said in a somewhat excited tone, "Do you have a carving knife, there is a pack of carving knives here, you can also take it back and use it, please remember to bring it to me after the things are made." ”

He handed the piece of jade and a pack of carving knives to He Qing, and He Qing had no choice but to agree.

The jade carver may complete a fine workmanship very quickly, but the large ornament can be a week or several years, so no matter how good the jade carver is, it is impossible to carve a piece of jade in a moment.

After taking the things, He Qing said goodbye to Master Lu and went back to the reception room.

"He Qing, how's it going?" When He Qing walked in, Gu Qing asked a little nervously.

He Qing smiled: "Wait for the news." Gu Qing, let's go back. ”

"Hmm." Gu Qing nodded, and then walked out with He Qing.

When passing by the decoration point, He Qing did not forget to go and pick up the stone with a mysterious aura.

"He Qing, what are you doing with this brick?" Gu Qing was surprised.

He Qing replied casually: "Take it to carve, Master Lu asked me to find something to carve a work, anyway, if you want to find a stone, then find this piece, this piece is not bad." ”

"Oh, so?" Gu Qing said suddenly.

They then got into a taxi and rushed to Antique Street.

He Qing wanted to invite Gu Qing to dinner, but the other party refused, and there was news in the factory.

He Qing was not reluctant, he returned to the rental house after sending Gu Qing to her house.

"What's so strange about the bottom of this stone?"

As soon as he returned to the rented room, He Qing sat down and took the stone to inspect it over and over again, and after a long time, he still didn't come out of any fame, only the lingering "red cloud".

At that moment, He Qing took out a carving knife and carved a few times on the brick that looked like an ordinary stone, he tried it casually, who knew that after a piece of debris fell on the stone, a hole was exposed, and he saw that the hole was crystal clear and full of green.

"Huh?! What is that?! Jadeite jade?! There's a jade hidden inside the stone?! ”

Seeing this, He Qing was greatly taken aback.

It turns out that this is really not an ordinary stone, but it contains a huge secret.
