146 Raising disciples like children
It seems that it was ready early in the morning, it was wrapped early, and people are here, just waiting for the rabbit, and the guard is Liu Yuan, the "rabbit" that was automatically sent to the door.
After figuring out the situation, Liu Yuan did not hesitate, and happily completed the delivery of three thousand taels, and "bought" the bag of wild tea worth three thousand taels.
After buying the wild tea, Liu Yuan didn't bother to send it to the mansion, and instructed Zhao An to send it to Lord Thorn Shi, and go back to the Jinyu family to teach the Tao.
Anyway, it's just going through the motions, and you don't need to go out yourself.
As soon as the wild tea is delivered, the deal will be over, but there is still a way out of the relationship, only if there is a suitable opportunity, the two sides will continue to cooperate, this kind of thing, it is better to be raw than cooked.
Jinshui Street is still full of people, lively and extraordinary, these days, the merchants of Jinshui Street are always smiling, in a good mood, the reason is very simple, the Jinyu family because of the last time to engage in the sales activities sold out of goods, a few days to carry out promotional activities, these days are all in the rush to catch up with the goods, temporarily closed for business, and Yumanlou because of the previous shopkeeper false accusations, so that the foundation is not guaranteed, now Yumanlou is with Liu Yuan's surname, is engaged in decoration.
Suddenly there are two "strong rivals", and other merchants have ushered in a short spring, and the fat face of Zhang of Jinyuzhai has recently smiled like a flower.
The Jinyu family seems to be closed, the door is deserted, but the inside is actually very lively: the craftsmen who came from Yumanlou Toucheng are all crowded here because of decoration problems, and they are making jewelry one by one, preparing for the opening of the second branch of the Jinyu family and the second branch of the Jinyu family at the same time.
If you want to talk about speed, the fastest is definitely sitting in the corner of the little gold master, he used to be a famous "fast hand" in Yumanlou, I saw him holding a carving knife quickly carved on an unfinished ornament, skilled in work, it seems that there is no need to think. It looks very familiar, and it has completely reached the realm of the heart, eyes, and hands that Liu Yuan said before, and those two hands are like two butterflies flying among the flowers.
The cup of hot tea on the side of the desk has long been cold, but Master Xiaojin has no intention of drinking it at all, as usual, he has already drunk a few cups of tea at this moment, and the thatched house has also run several times, slowly grinding, but now it is different, the shopkeeper said. Take as much as you do, and after completing a month's ration, every extra piece you make is an extra piece of silver. Liu Yuan is very finely divided, different processes. Every step is completed. There will be corresponding silver, if you complete a piece alone, the price will be higher, Master Xiaojin calculated, as long as you work hard, you will get the silver in a month. At least double the Yumanlou.
Stimulated by the silver, there is no grinding anymore, and there is no time to drink water, so hurry up. Hurry up and work.
Time is silver.
Not only Master Xiaojin, all of them were working hard, that is, those apprentices who couldn't do fine work, all of them were pecking hard at the materials, in their words, even if they didn't die, they had to finish the monthly ration, and after they finished, every time they did a little more, they would have to have an extra piece of silver, and the most feared thing was that if they took three months' guaranteed monthly money, they would have to roll up and leave here, but who would be willing to leave here if they tasted the sweetness.
Let's not talk about the work casually, no one scolds, unlike before, the owner is also around the "dry cough", the low status is kicked here, live well here, eat more satisfied, in the Jinyu family, the apprentice's food is about to catch up with the food of the craftsman when he is in Jinmanlou, the food of the craftsman can almost catch up with the food of the owner, eat well, live well, work smoothly, plus the silver is not less, and those who want to leave are fools.
It was lively and lively outside, but in the separate studio of Liu Yuan of the Jinyu family, it was relatively calm.
Liu Yuanzheng instructed Ah Zhong, Ah Yi and Xiaoqing, three henchmen, how to carve miniature carving, and the first thing he taught them was how to carve their own unique secret marks on the jewelry that were difficult for others to imitate.
"You can see clearly" Liu Yuan stretched out his right hand, and the five fingers gently shook the five fingers in front of the three of them, and he had to teach patiently:
"Everyone has a pair of hands, for what some people can only hold a hoe, some people can hold a pen, and some people can do the most dexterous things within a square inch, without him, depending on how you use yourself, it is very simple, people with hands, can only hold a hoe; He who wields his wrist can hold a pen and be a skilled craftsman; However, if you can use your fingers flexibly, you can learn my miniature carving technique. ”
Liu Yuan continued: "Micro carving, you have to work under the magnifying glass, take the young master and my ten-fold magnifying glass as an example, what is it, under this magnifying glass can be magnified ten times, the same, your actions will also be magnified ten times, that is, it is just a small point, but under the magnification of the magnifying glass, it is also very large, this requires you to concentrate when you are doing it, and you can't lose every move, okay, no matter how much you say, it is also on paper, you look at it carefully, staring at my hands." ”
After speaking, Liu Yuan casually took a hairpin that needed to be secretly marked, gently placed it under the magnifying glass, picked up a carving knife as thin as hair, and started working under the magnifying glass, everyone stared at Liu Yuan's hand, only to see that his hand was very heavy and stable, and the wrist seemed to be not moving.
It doesn't take much time to engrave four words.
"Alright, look." Liu Yuan gently placed the carving knife on the shelf on the side and said with a relaxed face.
Ah Zhong, Ah Yi and Xiao Qing hurriedly squeezed to the magnifying glass, looked down from the magnifying glass, and saw the four small characters of "Jinyu Family" appearing on the eyes, the handwriting was neat and beautiful, as if writing calligraphy, in one go, not deeply engraved, but clearly visible.
Ayi took it out of the magnifying glass, put it in front of his eyes, and looked at the three heads of the three heads, and couldn't help but exclaim again: With the naked eye, I only saw a little unnatural, but I really couldn't see the words, which is really amazing.
I heard the young master say that if the tools were not good enough, otherwise, it would be easy to engrave a "Diamond Sutra" on a grain of rice.
It's amazing.
Ah Yi rubbed his hands and said with an excited face: "Young Master, can we start practicing now?" ”
"You want to learn?" Liu Yuan asked with a smile.
"Yes!" The three of them said in unison, and the head nodded like a chicken pecking rice.
Liu Yuan said with a wicked smile: "If you want to learn, it's simple, you can't change what you have to do in the morning, you can't leave behind what you have to do every day, and you can only take two hours to practice microcarving in the afternoon, but it's not the time yet, let's practice the basic skills first." ”
"Young Master, what are you practicing?" Xiaoqing asked timidly.
To be honest, the last time I practiced shoveling copper plates and polishing materials, I practiced for three months, which scared several of them, and now when I hear that I have to practice basic skills again, I immediately have a feeling of fear in my heart.
"It's not that complicated, on the contrary, it's fun." Liu Yuan said with a smile: "One hour to practice needle threading, one hour to practice calligraphy." ”
Practicing needles is more than a dozen needles lined up, holding the thread with a small tweezers, slowly passing through, practicing a person's eyesight and ingenuity, as for practicing words, it is completely for the sake of beauty, a word can not be written well, carved out of things, how much beauty is there? These are all foundations and cultivations, and raising an apprentice is regarded as a child.
The three little families listened to it, and then they breathed a sigh of relief. (To be continued.) )
