Chapter 105: Blind Toss
The soldiers of the Terracotta Division also have to carry out daily drills, but the intensity of the drills is not large.
In this regard, Xia Zitang is the most diligent one.
Then, a more diligent Shao Xiaoye came, that is, Shao Yi.
Although Shao Yi is not really a petty officer who is not in the mix, he is only an eight-rank lieutenant, and he is in charge of more than 20 old oil soldiers.
Shao Ye has been fighting since he was a child, and what he advocates is not to fight and not to know each other.
In his opinion, if you want to catch up with Xia Zitang and have a good relationship with Xia Zitang, you naturally have to use your fists and feet to try your skills.
The friendship that comes out is the most reliable.
He was several years younger than Xia Zitang, and his official position was several levels lower than Xia Zitang. But in the past two months, he has really won Xia Zitang's attention.
At the same time, the soldiers/oilmen under him no longer treat him as useless squire.
The guise on Shao Yi's face today, and the black blue on his body, were also injured when he practiced with Xia Zitang.
He lay on the bed and asked Xiuyuan to give him medicine, but he was thinking about the future.
In the previous life, the reason why he was attached to King Jing was because King Jing had a better chance of winning the throne.
Moreover, it was King Jing who took the initiative to recruit him, and promised that after the matter was completed, he would issue an order to give her mother, Prince Xiang's rank, and she could be buried in Prince Xiang's cemetery after a hundred years.
At that time, he cared very much about his mother and his identity, and also wanted to win a dragon skill, be able to ignore the rights and wrongs of the world, and marry the woman he liked.
In this life, these things don't seem to matter anymore. The most important thing is to let her mother live at ease and make Xia Ke's family safe.
In the previous life, without his assistance, Xia Zitang could master so many troops. In this life, he and Xia Zitang complement each other, he doesn't believe it, if he has mental calculations or unintentional, can he still make other variables in the situation!
King Chengjun? Hehe, unless he's thinking wrong. Otherwise, it will definitely make this ill-intentioned county prince defeated.
…………
Xia Yanqing didn't know at all that the craftsman Xia Zitang found for her was her right-hand man who had been used in her previous life and had spent more than ten years cultivating and honing.
She just heard Xia Zitang say that these two people have not been apprentices for a long time, and their skills are quite passable. The advantage is that such craftsmen can be sent by the owner, which is easier to master
The most important thing is that he has inquired in many ways, and these two people have good character.
The people who work with Xia Yanqing, Xia Zitang and Xia Zixi are most concerned about the character of these people.
If the craft is not good, you can practice, but if the character is not good...... That's not something that can be changed by teaching.
Involving the rare glass in the world, it will definitely cause many parties to covet it in the future, and people who are unreliable must not use it.
The day after the three sisters of the old house visited, the craftsmen also came. Because the workshop has not yet been built, these two craftsmen are temporarily arranged in the outer courtyard of the Xia family.
After the two craftsmen settled down, Xia Zitang accompanied Xia Yanqing and met the two of them in the temporary craftsman's workshop, and arranged the next work by the way.
One of these two people is named Shi Changsheng and the other is Zhang Chun, both in their early twenties.
The hired man greeted the host, said a few polite words, and sat down.
As the owner, Xia Yanqing gave them a few pictures.
Although the picture drawn by Xia Yanqing is a bit fantastic, the two of them are insiders, but they can see some ways.
Xia Yanqing gave them some explanations, about the facet, about the size, about the shape, and the effect that the finished product needs to achieve, one by one.
When both of them heard it, they were both at a loss.
It was Shi Changsheng who spoke first and asked, "What kind of treasure are you polishing?" The objects we make are all polished round and smooth. You ...... Why do you want to make it so angular and angular? ”
Xia Yanqing nodded secretly, understanding that what she wanted was edges and corners.
Xia Zitang also felt the same way, but for the sake of his little sister's face, he didn't say the doubts in his heart.
Xia Yanqing smiled, took the box from Xinxiu's hand, took out the glass cup in the box, and motioned for Xia Zitang's little servant to take it to the two of them.
As soon as the two craftsmen saw the glass bowl, their eyes immediately straightened, their faces were full of disbelief, and they stared at the glass cup on the table in front of them.
Whether it was the work they took on together, or during the period of learning art with the master, this kind of well-shaped glass object was something they had never seen before.
It can be said that for them, this kind of thing is only a legend.
Zhang Chun tentatively stretched out his hand, took the glass cup in front of him in his hand, slowly turned it around and looked around, and gradually, a look of regret appeared in his eyes.
Obviously, he also saw that the bubbles on the glass bowl were not in good position, destroying the integrity of the outer wall of the glass bowl.
Even though this was a flawed glass bowl, Xia Yanqing's next words still shocked him enough, and the glass cup almost fell to the ground.
Xia Yanqing said: "You cut this glass cup and polish the glazed bare stone according to the style on these pictures. The thin glaze is made into an inlay piece, and the thick part is made into an inlay with more cutting surfaces. ”
Zhang Chun was shocked by her words, held the glass cup with trembling hands, and carefully put it back on the table.
This rare treasure, don't hold it in your hands. If this aunt said a few more earth-shattering words, he could not guarantee that he would be able to hold things steady.
Putting down the glass cup, Zhang Chun wiped his forehead with his sleeve, okay, it's really dangerous, I almost got rid of it.
If he smashed the glass cup in his hand, let alone him, even if he added the lives of his family and his brothers and nephews, it would not be enough to compensate the owner.
Shi Changsheng was more cautious, he turned the table and looked at the glass cup, and probably understood that Xia Yanqing suspected that this glass cup had big flaws, so he had to divide it and make it into a number of inlaid gems.
"Can the proprietor allow the villain to say more?" Shi Changsheng said tentatively.
Xia Yanqing nodded.
Shi Changsheng thanked him and said, "Although this glass cup is flawed, it is also an extremely rare object. If you make some gold and silver inlays on the bubbles, it is very exquisite, and there is no need to divide and break. ”
Zhang Chun's mood calmed down slightly, and he nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, if such a rare thing is destroyed, it will be a pity." If the defect is repaired, the two of us must be careful to ensure that the object is beautiful enough after repair. ”
Xia Zitang was also moved, looking at Xia Yanqing with burning eyes, his expression was full of anticipation.
These four glass cups are taken out together, which is enough to make the world shocking. It's best to keep something so good.
Xia Yanqing smiled indifferently: "It's okay, just do what I say." If you are attentive and can polish the cutting surface on the drawing, it is a rare item that does not exist in the world. ”
"But......" Shi Changsheng opened his mouth.
Xia Yanqing said: "The two of you just have to do things with peace of mind, and when we have a workshop in the future, we will have good things for you to practice." Glass Jar...... Ahem, it's nothing. ”
Nothing? That's a glass cup!
Zhang Chun was choked by this gentle speech, and when he came back to his senses, he was almost choked by his own saliva.
Is this aunt reliable? Dare to say such things. Such a beautiful and regular glass cup, she actually said that it was nothing!
It's just a toss-up.
The two were heartbroken, but because they had just arrived, they didn't dare to say much.
Xia Zitang saw that the two of them were trembling, and a defective object scared the two of them into not daring to talk, and couldn't help but feel anxious.
This is the craftsman he found for Xia Yanqing, and he really embarrassed him by acting like he had never seen the world.
