Volume 1 Chapter 8 Tuyunju

Early the next morning, yesterday's carriage slowly stopped in front of the door.

"Tuyunju?"

Looking at the plaque that had been replaced, Steward Wei was stunned for a moment.

Behind him, a middle-aged man in plain clothes slowly got out of the car and followed closely behind Steward Wei.

Looking at the brand-new plaque of Tuyunju, this person's face could not hide his doubts and suspicions.

Jiang Yun, who had been waiting for a long time, went out to greet him, and today he changed into a brand new Tsing Yi and ink pants, the whole person was obviously dressed up, and his temperament was already a little elegant, and he was even more handsome at this time.

Early in the morning, Su Tuzi handed Liu Yiyi a piece of gold cake, saying that she asked her to take her little lover to buy new clothes.

After all, the old clothes looked worn out because of the time.

Liu Yiyi blushed and secretly retorted, and quickly pulled Jiang Yun to buy new clothes, and helped him clean and dress up a little when he came back.

I have to say that Jiang Yun looks very good, with light copper-colored skin and handsome appearance, beautiful facial edges and corners and a golden ratio figure. A pair of extremely good-looking hands hang on both sides, full of bookish life but sassy and heroic.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Liu Yiyi has a good impression of the disciples.

"Master Jiang, the shopkeeper must be pictured." Steward Wei took the initiative to greet from afar, and then nodded with a smile towards Xu Tuzi, who was dozing off at the counter.

"Steward Wei." Jiang Yun hurriedly returned the salute, and said strangely to the middle-aged man behind Steward Wei, "Why is Master Lin here too?" ”

The middle-aged man in plain clothes who followed behind Steward Wei was Master Lin who couldn't be carved yesterday.

Master Lin found that Steward Wei called Jiang Yun Master Jiang, and his face was slightly gloomy. At this time, he heard Jiang Yun greeting, but he said coldly, "Master Jiang's skills are extraordinary, and he came to visit and learn one or two." ”

Steward Wei frowned and glanced at him, then turned his head and said, "Last night, Master Lin heard about your carving, and he was curious about Master Jiang's skills, so I came to observe it today." ”

"Oh~"

The co-author knew that he had robbed him of his business and came to find trouble!

I still remember that this surnamed Lin was not skilled back then, and he gave a lot of gifts before visiting his mother through the relationship of a guest secretary in the house. If it weren't for my mother's guidance, I wouldn't have the reputation I have now.

The wood carving industry should talk about inheritance and talent.

I'm taught by my mother, inheriting orthodoxy!

Jiang Yun no longer paid attention to Master Lin, who was not good, but raised his eyebrows and asked, "Master didn't come today?" ”

Steward Wei's expression changed slightly, and he said with a smile, "The master wanted to come over in person, but he had something important to do temporarily." However, he still told me to cooperate with Master Jiang to remedy the 'five ladies'. ”

Jiang Yun didn't think much about it.

The Wei family walked into the hall with the wooden box containing the five ladies, Jiang Yun took the wooden box and opened it, and Liu Yiyi on the side came over to watch curiously, and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Wow~ It's so fragrant."

Chin fragrant wood is born with a unique fragrance, and this fragrance can make people feel refreshed. When practicing, the fragrance can make people calm their minds and achieve the effect of concentrating on practice.

This wood is expensive and extremely rare, and many wealthy nobles like to use this wood as carving wood.

It is not only elegant and beautiful at home, but also can show the family heritage to the guests. Before Jiang Yun's house, there were two wood carvings carved by Qinxiang wood, so Jiang Yun was very familiar with this thing.

The five living wood carvings of ladies in the box were placed on the table.

The cold-eyed and suspicious Master Lin couldn't help but say with a strange aura of yin and yang, "Qinxiang wood is extremely valuable, if there is a slight mistake, it will be difficult to find wood again, Master Jiang, can you have confidence?" ”

Steward Wei said with a smile, "Master Jiang's craftsmanship is outstanding, and he must be 100% sure!" ”

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yun groaned for a while, and said slowly, "Don't hide it from Steward Wei, the kid is only ninety percent sure of the biggest." ”

"Huh." Master Lin immediately smiled and said, "Ninety percent sure? Master Jiang is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, but he doesn't know what the reason for the lack of one percent? ”

Liu Yiyi beside him looked at this villain's behavior, and her teeth itched with anger.

Seeing Steward Wei's expression change slightly, Jiang Yun hurriedly explained, "It's not that my skills are insufficient, but that my carving path is different from Master Lin's after all, and there may be differences and conflicts in subtleties, so there is no way to make a conclusion." ”

"If I had been asked to carve on wood from the beginning, I would have been 100% sure."

This Master Lin has been yin and yang since he entered the door, Jiang Yun is not muddy, if you say age and hairline, I may not be as good as you.

But wood carving, you must be inferior to me!

Steward Wei, who smiled inexplicably, glanced at the two people who were facing Mai Mang, nodded and raised his hand to signal that Jiang Yun could start.

Jiang Yun sat down slowly and took out his carving knife.

Liu Yiyi, who was beside her, stood curiously and observed, standing left and right with Steward Wei.

A pair of beautiful eyes glared at Master Lin from time to time, sticking out his tongue and making a grimace by the way.

Master Lin didn't care about the little girl, and stared at Jiang Yun tightly.

I saw Jiang Yun first pick up the greed of the five ladies, look at it carefully for a moment, and simply make a few marks. Master Lin understands that this is looking for the angle of the knife, and at this time, he should have in mind the need to conceive a model of the final product.

Sure enough, after Jiang Yun finished making the mark, he groaned for a few breaths before lifting the knife and falling.

Covet.

Greed for money is vulgar, greed is elegant.

Although the elegance and vulgarity are the best, some of the greedy ladies carved by Master Lin are inferior.

Too cheesy.

Especially for a wealthy businessman like Mr. Wei, the vulgar atmosphere can be appropriately reduced, and people need to snap a glance to hook the soul and hit the soul.

"Huh~"

The smooth carving knife cut through the pieces of wood, and Jiang Yun recalled in his heart the scenes when his mother had repaired his own wood carvings.

He's slow today, much slower than he was yesterday.

Because repair is more difficult than carving, carving only needs to be done in one go, from the wood embryo to the final shape, it is its own style.

Thoughts and hands are all in one go.

However, repairing is to move the knife on the work carved by others, which is very easy to cause the collision of two styles or even two genres, and it is easy to have four different results in the end.

"Whew~"

Liu Yiyi didn't dare to come out of the nervous atmosphere next to her, she secretly looked at Jiang Yun and found that Jiang Yun's eyes were full of firmness and confidence.

The humility and prudence of his usual words disappeared the moment he held the carving knife!

The process of patching is extremely lengthy.

Although Master Lin came because he was not angry, he also obeyed the rules and did not open his mouth to disturb Jiang Yun.

He was also curious in his heart, what kind of level this son was, and the carved greedy lady could actually satisfy Master Wei.

It wasn't until Jiang Yun finished repairing his eyes that the suspicious look in Master Lin's eyes suddenly turned to surprise. This son's hand holding the knife is steady and not urgent, and the arc outline is a master-level technique.

After only a few moments of charm in the lady's eyes, she has been reborn!

The hands that were originally crossed in front of his chest fell vertically, and Master Lin gradually put away his contempt and resentment.

This kind of technique and skill, if there is no top craftsman level master teaching words and deeds is impossible to practice by himself, this son in the details of the processing, from one point through the overall situation, each point linkage style is the same, it is terrible!

About half an hour later, Jiang Yun slowly put down the wood carving.

Jiang Yun, who was sweating profusely, had confident joy on his face, and handed the 'greed' of the five ladies to Steward Wei, who was full of appreciation.

Steward Wei on the side witnessed the whole wood carving from vulgar to elegant, obviously the difference between the wood carving and the previous one is only a very small part, but it gives people the feeling that it is a grade as a whole.

"Little Master Jiang, amazing!"

He praised from the bottom of his heart, obviously Jiang Yun was so young, but his hand was as steady as an old dog when he went under the knife.

When making small changes, Steward Wei pinched a cold sweat for him, for fear of making an extra cut. In particular, the change of the eyes of the wood carving, even if it is a little more outlining, will affect the final effect.

But Jiang Yun was stunned and steady!

This not only requires great psychological quality, but also requires a deep technical background to support.

Really admire!

When Steward Wei carefully looked at the wood carving, Liu Yiyi hurriedly helped Jiang Yun wipe his sweat.

Serious, excellent and handsome boys who don't like it!

Jiang Yun's hands are already good-looking, and Liu Yiyi was not less attracted by those hands when carving. And the way he cuts through the wood with a knife is full of the beauty of lines.

She felt more and more that watching Jiang Yun's carving was a kind of enjoyment, a spiritual enjoyment!

After a while, Steward Wei carefully put the first wood carving aside, turned his head and asked, "Can Master Jiang continue?" Why don't you take a break? ”

Jiang Yun raised his hand to stop.

"No need, I just happen to be in good shape now, so I'll just finish it together."

Two statues.

Three.

Four.

Starting from the second wood carving, Jiang Yun's knife falling is faster and his knife technique is smoother.

And after Master Lin finished repairing the greedy lady, he stood aside and stopped making a sound. Liu Yiyi thought that he was going to start playing ghosts, but found that this person was standing quietly aside, like an apprentice observing a master.

From time to time, he also raised his hand to learn Jiang Yun's sketching techniques.

By the time the fifth wood carving was completed, it was already noon.

Everyone in the hall stared intently at the five wood carvings placed in the whole, and the eyes of all the men changed from initial admiration to amazement.

Even if she is still a daughter, she can't help but mutter, so beautiful.

Greed, the empress's capital.

Angry, seductive caresses.

Love, the heart is emotional.

Stupid, pitiful.

Resentment, a thousand mistakes are all men's faults.

"It's my fault, it's all my fault, baby." A member of the Wei family couldn't help but let out a loud voice, looking at the resentful lady with a stupid face, and then reacted that he was too empathetic and showed foreign appearance, and immediately straightened his face and was not moved by the wood carving.

Everyone's strange gaze retracted, and they secretly smiled.

There are licking dogs!

"Master Jiang's ingenuity is really admirable." Steward Wei sighed heartily.

Master Lin, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly hugged his fists and said, "In the entire Jingyu District, few people can make Master Jiang to the right, and Lin is even inferior to you by three points!" ”

"Master Jiang's control of details and the shaping of the overall style are beyond mine, which is not only about techniques and skills, but also requires enough knowledge and impromptu processing ability."

Jiang Yun looked at Master Lin, who had gone from yin and yang weirdness to convincing, and said with a smile, "Master Lin has won the award, and Master Lin's techniques and skills are also good." ”

He wasn't arrogant enough to point fingers.

As long as you know your own skills, it is really inappropriate to pretend to be a master to instruct an old carpenter of nearly half a hundred.

As for whether Master Lin would steal his own techniques just now, Jiang Yun didn't care very much.

No matter how many skills you have, it is better to have excellent on-the-spot adaptability.

Each wood carving has different wood, requires different styles, and creates a different final image. The craftsman's falling point, the direction of the main line, the proportion of the figures, etc., are all conceived and processed on the spot.

If you make another mistake, you need to remedy it.

Six points of talent, three points of mentorship, and one point of experience.

Even if Jiang Yun learned the skills from his mother, he needs to have a certain understanding as the basis.

Master Lin already treated Jiang Yun as a craftsman of the same level, and sighed, "I'm ashamed to say that I haven't heard of Master Jiang's reputation before." I had the privilege of seeing such a clever technique once in the hands of the lady of the Mo family, but unfortunately it was only that once. ”

"I really don't know where you learned such a craft, but you already have the style of a master at a young age."

Jiang Yun was stunned for a moment, and a smile suddenly froze on his face.

Where did you learn it? Learn from my mother!

Seeing this, Liu Yiyi hurriedly reached out to help Jiang Yun wipe his sweat, and then covered up the past.

After glancing at Liu Yiyi gratefully, Jiang Yun hugged his fists and said humbly, "I learned the craftsmanship of the same line by chance, and the master lives in seclusion in the mountains and forests and does not want to leave a reputation." ”

Master Lin immediately nodded in understanding and did not delve further.

Steward Wei waved his hand and motioned for his subordinates to pack the five ladies into boxes and take them away, and said with a satisfied smile, "I believe that the master will also be shocked when he sees these five modified wood carvings." ”

The wood carving of five ladies and gentlemen, although there was charm before, it was difficult to enter the elegant hall.

Now after such a remedy by Master Xiao Jiang, the overall grade and temperament have suddenly risen to a higher level.

"As long as Master Wei likes it."

Jiang Yun took the opportunity to add, "In the future, we will add wood carvings and stone carvings to the shop for sale, if Master Wei or Steward Wei are interested, please take care of the small shop business." Or introduce some friends who like art, and thank you for it. ”

Steward Wei raised his eyebrows and quipped, "I believe in Master Jiang's craftsmanship, and I will come over every few days in the future. ”

Master Lin then recommended himself, "I will come often in the future, and I hope that Master Jiang will not welcome it." ”

"Wherever and where, the one who comes is the guest."

After the three of them exchanged a few polite words, a subordinate came from the carriage with a wooden box.

Steward Wei smiled and opened the wooden box, which was full of golden light.

"This is the reward for Master Jiang this time."

Jiang Yun hadn't moved yet, and Su Tuzi's figure had already moved from the counter to the front of the box in a flash. "Thank you so much Steward Wei, your satisfaction with the work is our greatest wish, but we will be disrespectful to this reward."

Steward Wei glanced at Jiang Yun and found that Jiang Yun and Liu Yiyi were snickering, and immediately realized in his heart.

"There are two hundred gold cakes in the box, each at the price of forty, can the shopkeeper and Master Jiang still be satisfied?"

Hearing such a huge amount of money, Su Tuzi's eyes widened, and he worked hard to arrange a set of formations for less than a hundred gold cakes!

As a result, he carved forty yuan for one wood carving, and earned two hundred yuan on the spot!

Xu Tuzi felt that his eyes looking at Jiang Yun at this time were a little softer, and he had earned a huge sum of two hundred gold cakes at a young age, did he dare to think about it before?

Where is this apprentice, this is clearly a thigh!

After getting the money, the smile on Su Tuzi's face was a little more flattering, "Satisfied, Master Wei and Steward Wei are generous and generous." ”

Now that the business was done, Steward Wei and Master Lin left after everyone exchanged pleasantries.

Before leaving, he specially said that he would let Master Jiang do a few more wood carvings, and he would definitely bring his friends over in a few days.

Su Tuzi hugged the box, and his usually lazy eyes were full of light at the moment.

"My precious apprentice, it's a shame that the master didn't hurt you in vain, and we will divide the account according to the shares."

There are still words in his mouth, "Since we are rich, let's go to the restaurant tonight to have a good meal with him, and I will treat you." Good boy, you let go of eating tonight, and eat back tonight after being hungry for most of the year. ”

Saying that, he patted his chest and clanged, that's called a trench!
