Chapter 82 of the Earth Chapter 82 Gambling Stone I
Lin Yun is no stranger to carving, in the process of forging, this skill is used in many places, and Lin Ling'er's Biling crystal sword is the pinnacle of carving, and almost all the carving skills are used.
Engraving is a type of sculpture that refers to cutting or carving wood, stone, or other materials into the desired shape. Tools used for this purpose are knives, chisels, chisels, cones, flat axes, and hammers. In the most common method of carving, a chisel is held in one hand and a mallet in the other, and the chisel is hammered into the wood or stone with the mallet. Although some metalworking techniques, such as welding and assembly, have become increasingly important over the past century, engraving and mold-making are still the two main sculptural techniques. A finished engraving work can be referred to as carving, but the term sculpture is usually a work with serious artistic or aesthetic connotations.
It is very difficult to carve a good work, it tests one's imagination.
The first is composition, as long as you have a good composition, a feeling, and an intentional meaning, the later stage is water grinding kung fu, which is very boring, unless you really like it, it is difficult to stick to it.
Lin Yun can even carve Xuantie, and the stone is even more fine, I saw the carving knife flying freely in his hand, without the slightest stop, in one go, after rinsing with water, a beautiful little goldfish appeared.
In fact, carving is a test of a person's support and control of strength, when the knife is made, the strength can not be more, nor can it be less, otherwise, this object is wasted.
And a person's support and control is related to spiritual power, and strong mental power is strong support and control, so Lin Yun can become a master carver without learning.
Chen Yao picked up the goldfish and observed it carefully, and couldn't help but admire: "Okay, second child, it turns out that you are the big guy, majestic, bold, delicate, exquisite, and exquisite, and also endowed it with divine essence and spiritual essence, this is a living fish, it is simply a masterpiece!" ”
"If you like it, I'll give it to you!" Lin Yun said magnificently.
"Then you're welcome, anyway, you're so fast, you can use whatever materials I have here, and carve whatever you want." But second, you can't eat alone, you have to teach me a few tricks, and I will rely on you for the rest of my life! Chen Yao did not refuse, but accepted it happily!
"Of course it's no problem to teach a few tricks, or if you worship me as a teacher, I will teach you everything."
"you, you still want to be a generation older than me, don't teach it." Chen Yao scolded with a smile.
"Just kidding, I'll teach you what you want to learn."
"Okay, let's not talk about that. Let's go, I'll take you to see the gambling stones, just go over and look at it later, don't buy anything, the phrase ten bets and nine losses is not a joke! ”
……
Gambling Stone Street is not far from Chen Yao's house, and it takes more than 20 minutes to walk! I saw that there were people coming and going here, so it was not lively.
The gambling stone street in Yun City is completely chaotic, the underworld is rampant, Lin Yun went in to sell jade, it is simply not a place for people to stay, and it is much better here.
"Collapsed, collapsed, collapsed again!"
"This is already the sixth jade rough stone, so many stones are waste stones, it's a big loss!"
"Alas, one knife is poor, one knife is rich, one knife wears hemp pants, more than one million is gone!"
"Nine out of ten bets are lost!"
A young man in his twenties stood in the middle of the crowd, listening to the onlookers' discussions, the expression on his face changed again and again, and he was sad and indignant!
"See, there are a lot of ways to gamble on stones, that young man must have been pitted, otherwise he wouldn't have opened anything!" Chen Yao pointed to the young man standing in the center.
"He's too stupid, this is obviously a lie, he's still in the pit!" Lin Yun feels that all the people who gamble and lose their fortunes are fools, they are all irresponsible people, they don't think about their families before doing things, what if they lose, and finally their wives and children will be affected.
In fact, most people are like this, with a fluke mentality, in case they get rich, it will be a few decades of less struggle.
"He's nothing, there was a boss from other places back then, who thought that gambling on stones was very profitable, and finally lost tens of millions, even the coat was here, and even the travel expenses home were funded by well-wishers!"
"So miserable!"
At this time, the owner of the store came with a smile on his face, still pretending to be comforting, "Gambling stones, there will always be various situations, stay in Qingshan, not afraid of no firewood, and there will be a chance to make a comeback in the future!" Young people, don't be discouraged, there will always be a day when the gambling will rise!
When you go back and prepare the money, I will choose a good stone for you, and maybe the bet will rise. ”
The young man stared at the boss with an angry face, it was this profiteer who caused him to fall to this point, more than one million, and most of his property was gone, how long did he have to kneel on the washboard when he went back this time, one day or two days!
The young man stared at the last piece of scrap, and in despair, he picked up half of the chalk on the ground and drew a line with his hand! In the end, nothing was cut out.
The master who cut the stone looked at him, "Boss, I don't want your money this time, count me as free cut!" ”
There is a rule in the gambling stone industry, if the gambling rises, you must give the stone cutting master a reward, and if it doesn't rise, you don't have to give it, but the cost of cutting the stone still has to be given.
In the eyes of the young man, this was a charity for him, took out a few hundred yuan and smashed it on the ground, and left in grief and anger, that was his last money.
"I know the boss very well, the biggest profiteer on Gambling Stone Street, specializing in pit strangers, gambling on Stone Xiaobai. He doesn't cheat if he knows people, so many people still come to him to buy stones. That stone solving master is very good, if you gamble too badly, he will not charge you for cutting stones. Chen Yao explained.
In Lin Yun's opinion, that person deserves to gamble, what is wrong, and he treats other people's kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs.
At this time, the gambling stone boss came over, the gambling stone boss was a middle-aged uncle, a little obese, looking fierce and vicious, very imposing.
Seeing that it was Chen Yao coming, he said eagerly, "Xiaoyao, you have come to buy leftovers again, come in and sit, the leftovers are the same as before, ten yuan a piece, you can choose what you want!" ”
"Thank you, Uncle Zhou, I didn't buy leftovers today, I just took my classmates to shop, don't worry about us, you can be busy!"
"Then you guys have fun!"
The boss heard that someone was going to buy the rough again, so he hurried over.
Lin Yun asked, "Xiao Yao, you seem to be very familiar with him!" ”
"That's of course, the carving master I'm talking about is his father, I often came here to play when I was a child, the old man is an idle person, so he taught me to carve all kinds of gadgets, and now the old man has gone home to care for the elderly, so he handed over the shop to Uncle Zhou.
If it weren't for this relationship, how could I have bought ten yuan of leftovers and could have chosen whatever I wanted. Those leftovers are also a little jadeite, and the carving is good, so it can't be sold at a high price.
I have recently earned 30,000 or 40,000 yuan by selling small items, and the fish you gave me is worth at least 100,000 yuan! ”
"Do you go out to move stalls and harm the elderly and children, otherwise how can anyone ask for your garbage." Lin Yun scoffed.
"How is it possible, I'm that kind of person, I've been here for so many years, although I haven't had much money, but I know a lot of people.
There are people in the antique street who specialize in collecting this kind of small price, and the purchase price ranges from tens to thousands, and they can package these small items and sell them at several times the price. And I happen to know a few of them. Chen Yao's voice was full of pride, he didn't know a few people, and this kind of business couldn't be played at all.
In today's society, there are many people who do this kind of business. The masterworks you buy at a high price when you go to scenic spots and antique streets may be someone else's practice.
Lin Yun doesn't like to gamble on stones, he only came to accompany Chen Yao today, the situation in those stones, under the eyes of insight, everything is hidden, and it is difficult for immortals to break the jade, that is because he has not met a real immortal.
In fact, this rough stone is really pitted, Lin Yun looked at it at a glance, there was almost no jade in the low-price area, it was a lie.
The high price area is quite high in gold content, most of the rough stones contain jadeite, but there are very few high quality, and you want to gamble up, unless it is luck against the sky.
He has no shortage of jadeite, and if he wants jadeite, he can decompose a few stones. Therefore, gambling stones is still forgotten, and gambling too much will attract the attention of people with intentions, which is a meaningless thing.
