Chapter 13: A Good Beginning
Gao Hai's question is not unreasonable. He learned carpentry from Gao Youcai, and he had a good idea of the master's skills, and although the wooden frame drawn by Gao Feng was shapely, it was rough and simple, and more importantly, he didn't understand what it was.
It's like a bed or a chair, but it's neither. It is said that it is a bed but it has a backrest and is much smaller, and it is said that it is a chair, which is wide and low, and the whole thing is not like four.
The Zhang family makes living room furniture, Gao Hai knows this, what the living room furniture looks like, Gao Hai also knows, the only thing he doesn't know is that Gao Feng sold the two chairs that have been made.
Now that Gao Feng asked him to do this four dislikes, it has long been beyond his cognition, and he even thinks that Gao Feng has misconveyed the meaning of Gao Youcai.
Of course, he didn't dare to doubt Gao Youcai, suspecting that the master and the second uncle would be disrespectful, and the loyal Gao Hai didn't dare to do this.
Gao Feng still didn't respond to Gao Hai's question, but looked at him with a smile, and sure enough, this practice made Gao Hai naturally believe that Gao Youcai confessed.
"Do you want to carve?" Gao Hai asked.
In fact, the most time-consuming and energy-intensive part of carpentry is carving. In addition to the carpenter's skills, carving also highlights his creativity, the quality of carving is the embodiment of the degree of furniture and the true value, so as a carpenter, the most difficult thing to learn is not how to make furniture, but carving. It is only because of the exquisite and novel carvings that the wood art works have vitality and thus have inheritance value.
Of course, Gao Hai didn't ask this question for the pursuit of art, but because making furniture for people like Zhang Dahu was to be carved, but he couldn't find a place to carve from the pictures drawn by Gao Feng.
Gao Feng finally responded to him: "Don't carve." ”
Gao Feng's response made Gao Hai puzzled again, and he couldn't help asking, "What are you going to do?" ”
Regarding Gao Hai's question, Gao Feng knew that it would not work without explaining two more sentences, otherwise the other party would strike.
"This is a new type of furniture, the framework you see is just the first step, there are many steps to follow, of course, the next steps will be talked about later, we will do the first step first."
Hearing that Gao Feng said that it was a new type of furniture, Gao Hai finally became excited. I haven't taught myself this style for so long with my uncle, it seems that this style is not ordinary, and now my uncle is sick, so that he can complete this new style independently, it is definitely a trust in himself, he decided to do it well, and never let down the trust of the old man.
"Are there any other details? Why don't I ask my uncle? Gao Hai was excited and did not lose his mind. Gao Feng doesn't understand carpentry, and may miss the confession of Gao Youcai, so you can rest assured by asking in person.
"No need, my father's health is so bad, don't let him worry about it anymore, not to mention that the first step is so simple, how can I say wrong?" Gao Feng was afraid that Gao Hai would ask Gao Youcai, so he did everything he could to stop him, and he didn't want the other party to mention it, so he could only make nonsense about the reason.
It is also a helpless move to do this. He can't say that it's his own idea, that's not to poke the hornet's nest, Gao Hai may even turn around and leave, Gao Feng can be completed independently, and the time is also very cramped, the most important thing is that the relationship between the two people that has gradually been frozen is bound to be more stiff, that is not what Gao Feng wants.
Once it starts, it will be easy to do later, but it will leak afterwards, and when Gao Hai sees the finished thing, he will not turn his face with him.
Even if Gao Feng's reason was full of loopholes, Gao Hai, who was swayed by emotions, still believed it, and he even thought that it was a big deal to redo it if it was bad, and there was no need for Gao Feng to lie to him at all.
The two of them agreed and started to move.
Use an ink fountain to put the thread on the locust wood, and Gao Hai takes out a shovel to cut the wood.
Wood cutting is to peel the log and cut it into square wood so that it can be sawed for sawing. Wood cutting is a kind of technical work, cutting light, can not become square wood, have to be repeatedly cut, very labor-intensive, cutting heavy and waste of wood, so cutting wood requires a certain amount of experience.
Although Gao Feng had worked as a carpenter, he had never cut wood, so he had to be done by Gao Hai alone, but he came to the pot house.
Li Wenjuan's meal is almost done. When Gao Youxian and others came to see Gao Youcai and his wife, they brought an old hen and some eggs, and Li Wenjuan boiled a few eggs and stewed the old hen in soup, which was for the patient to eat.
There are still a lot of vegetables bought by Gao Feng, and Li Wenjuan stewed a pot and steamed a few nests as a meal for the three of them.
"Third brother, is it the meat that your eldest brother bought when he came to work? I'm going to get naked, you're okay with it. Since last night, Li Wenjuan has become much less hostile to Gao Feng, and he actually made a joke when he entered the pot house.
"How can my brother have that face, it's not the meat that my sister-in-law bought when she came, it's my brother who touches my sister-in-law's light." Gao Feng also wanted to liven up the atmosphere, so he complimented Li Wenjuan.
However, his half-truths made Li Wenjuan very happy, and the prejudice against Gao Feng in his heart was swept away.
How did she know that Gao Feng had long been accustomed to the methods used by people in her previous life to deal with women, didn't she just say two good words to satisfy her vanity? He has a lot of such words.
In fact, women's requirements are very low, as long as their status is slightly improved, they can be satisfied, but most men are not willing to give even this, so that women's status has not been emancipated. Gao Feng said this precisely when he saw this.
Gao Hai is an elm pimple, he speaks straight and rushing, he can't say a thousand good words, and he only says a bad word, Li Wenjuan has a lot of opinions on this, but he doesn't dare to mention it, after all, everyone is like this.
Even if the women of the Song Dynasty were not as low as their status after the Ming Dynasty, they still had to rely on men, and the tradition of thousands of years of Confucius and Mencius, respecting the husband and taking the husband as the key link, still exists.
Now that Gao Feng ranks her importance in front of her husband, although it is unconventional, it is harmless, Li Wenjuan is naturally happy, this kind of happiness is not to say it, and her heart is also happy.
bought Li Wenjuan's heart, and Gao Feng was also relieved, after all, the existence of a centrifugal gossip woman by her side always made people uncomfortable.
After saying a few more good words, Gao Feng saw that breakfast was ready, so he opened up to eat.
The two old men were tired from the noise in the morning, and with the effect of drugs, they fell asleep again. Leave them a good meal, and Gao Hai and the three of them eat first.
After eating, work continues. Gao Hai continued to cut wood, and Gao Feng took out two pieces of cloth and handed them to Li Wenjuan.
After taking the cloth, Li Wenjuan was stunned, she had handled the linen cloth many times, and she didn't think so, but the silk cloth was the first contact, and it was so large that it had long exceeded her cognition.
Spreading out the cloth, Gao Feng taught her how to cut, how to sew, and how to lock the edge. Gao Feng's familiar cloth technology surprised Li Wenjuan.
She couldn't imagine that a little bastard still had this ability, is this still the bastard from before plus level 3?
Even if Li Wenjuan is full of gossip, under Gao Feng's serious attitude, she is embarrassed to ask, maybe it will be hard to return home at night.
Fortunately, Li Wenjuan's comprehension ability is not bad, and she quickly mastered the key to the skills, and when Gao Feng saw this, he took a step back to help Gao Hai.
For a skilled carpenter, it only takes one or two hours to cut a piece of wood, but Gao Hai's technique is not bad, and he can cut a square piece of wood in less than two hours.
Next came sawn timber. The square timber is sawn into sheets of a certain thickness, and then the sheets are sawn into square strips, so that the beams of the frame can be made.
In one day, a few beams were finally sawed out, and Li Wenjuan also cut the cloth.
After dinner, Gao Hai and his wife went home, Gao Feng looked at the results of the day, and sighed in his heart: "I finally have a good start." ”
