Chapter 271: Exquisite Coal Carving

Xu Bo'an's mountain people have their own clever plans, and they are not groundless and unbelievable.

Although the "Fu Bu Sutra" he mastered could not calculate everything for himself, he found that since he mastered the "Fu Bu Sutra", his sixth sense was much stronger.

When encountering difficulties, he subconsciously has this sixth sense of vaguely predicting the result. Of course, it is also sometimes ineffective.

Hearing that the pangolin wanted to eat this gold necklace, Xu Boan hurriedly said: "You can't taste this thing, if you want to eat it, I'll find you some gold that can be eaten."

It's not that Xu Boan is stingy, and he is reluctant to give this gold necklace to the pangolin.

Rather, this necklace is just for experimentation, to see if the pangolin can really hunt for treasure, so it seems that it is real. Gold is a treasure, and that's right.

However, this gold necklace is not Xu Bo'an's own thing after all, and if it is really bitten by the pangolin, Xu Boan will not be able to explain it to Chen Pingping again.

"Can't wait, can't wait!" The pangolin beast seemed to be talking, which was completely different from Xu Bo'an's restrained and stupid appearance when he first saw this little guy.

As he spoke, the pangolin stuck out its tongue and licked the stainless steel tea compartment under its feet.

With this action and this posture, Xu Boan even thinks it's quite appropriate to call it an "iron-eating beast"!

"What can't wait, haven't you eaten gold before, what's gluttonous." Xu Boan said casually.

"That's different, the gold I used to eat, I've never tasted so good, and I don't even think it's a taste at all." The pangolin hurriedly explained.

"What are you kidding? What else can be the difference between gold and gold? Xu Boan subconsciously muttered in disbelief.

After all, he had seen the gold brought back by Sun Ji Yinlou in the bonsai before, and it really looked exactly the same as the gold in the real world that he had seen.

Moreover, Li Qingshi and those people in the backing village never said anything wrong with the gold ring they fell down at the beginning.

A gold ring?

yes, that's not the way to do it.

Xu Bo'an thought of this, and suddenly remembered that he had given Li Qingshi and them a gold ring that they had fallen into, and it would be okay to take out that thing and give it to this little guy to taste.

I'll just say, mountain people have their own tricks! That's the trick.

The pangolin struggled to explain, "It's really different, what do you say about the gold I ate earlier?" I always felt that something was wrong. In the past, although the gold also tasted like gold, it tasted very spicy, but anyway, I just didn't think it was delicious enough, and there seemed to be a lot of impurities in it. ”

Spicy throat! Good guys, you're a picky eater.

But I heard the impurities that the pangolin said! Xu Boan instantly understood the problem.

If there are impurities in gold, doesn't that mean that the purity of gold is not enough!

Thinking of this, Xu Boan bowed slightly.

After all, the scientific and technological development in the bonsai world is still very backward, and the gold purification process is naturally incomparable with the purification process in the modern world.

Xu Bo'an remembers learning when he was in school that the ancient gold purification technology was relatively primitive, so the purity of gold was often low, maybe even less than 50%, and the remaining half was some other metal components.

The modern smelting and purification technology is very high-end, and it is easy to refine gold with extremely high purity, and even reach 99.9996% purity.

With such a huge difference, it's no wonder that the pangolin feels very different.

In addition, the source of gold in ancient feudal societies may not have been as abundant and stable as in modern times, and some dynasties even referred to gold and other metals such as copper and iron collectively as "gold".

Sometimes the so-called 12,000 taels of gold that the feudal emperor gave to his ministers sounded very arrogant, but in fact it was probably brass or other metal, not pure gold.

Therefore, it is really not easy for pangolins to eat some pure gold.

After all, people generally keep gold very well, and the pangolin has limited access to gold, so it's good to be able to find some gold ore on weekdays, not to mention the spicy throat, it's a miracle to be able to swallow.

Of course, for a pangolin that can even bite a diamond, it may be like eating brittle bones.

However, for Xu Bo'an, if this little pangolin can only find gold, it will not be of much use to him.

After all, in Xu Bo'an's cognition, it is good to have enough money, no matter how much it is, it is all a number, not to mention that the sensing distance of this pangolin beast to these gold seems to be very limited, otherwise Chen Pingping would not have been able to sense it in the kitchen before, until Chen Pingping moved to the restaurant, and the pangolin beast had a sense at that time. Calculated that this distance is only about twenty or thirty meters, which is really a bit chicken.

Xu Bo'an immediately called out the bonsai and asked Li Guanshan, "Li Kanshan, do you still have the gold I gave you earlier?"

Li Guanshan hurriedly said with a strange face: "Grandpa Mountain God, that golden mountain was traded to Sun Ji Yinlou in exchange for the blue gem stone you wanted, Xiaomin here, there is nothing left."

Xu Bo'an was a little embarrassed suddenly, thinking that it was really inappropriate to ask others for the things he had sent, the other party had already used up in order to help him change the imperial green, and it was really difficult for the other party to open his mouth again.

"It's okay, I just want to use some for the time being."

"Grandpa the mountain god, the little people know that Master Zou Shengsheng, the yellow goods master of Sun Ji Yinlou, has some gold, and he also took out some to subsidize it to the village a few days ago, if it is urgent, the villain can ask Master Zou if he can borrow some."

Well, there is no endless road!

Isn't that what gold is coming?

Although it may have a little bit of a spicy voice, it is better than losing faith in the pangolin.

Thinking of this, Xu Bo'an said: "No need, I'll just go find him."

Xu Boan quickly found Zou Shengsheng, Zou Shengsheng was lowering his head and carefully carving something, Xu Boan retracted his gaze to observe, only to find that Zou Shengsheng was actually carving your gold ornaments, which seemed to be the statue of the mountain god in the mountain temple.

Generally speaking, gold models are made by casting, and Zou Shengsheng's careful carving with a knife is already very careful.

"Zou Shengsheng, what are you busy with?" Xu Boan asked.

Zou Shengsheng hurriedly replied: "Back to the words of the mountain god grandfather, the small people are under the shadow of the mountain god grandfather, it is already a great blessing, it coincides with the mountain temple is being rebuilt now, and the small people want to do their best to carve a pure gold mountain god statue, placed in the temple, respected by 10,000 people, and worshiped by incense."

Hearing that Zou Shengsheng was going to recast the golden body for himself, Xu Boan was very satisfied.

"You've got a heart!" Xu Boan praised.

Although the gold statue carved by Zou Shengsheng is not big, it is only the size of a palm in his eyes, and it is only like sesame seeds in Xu Boan's eyes, but Zou Shengsheng is willing to take out so much gold to carve for himself, which is not easy for an ordinary person.

Since he is a professional yellow goods master, Xu Boan just verified whether his previous conjecture was correct.

Xu Boan put Chen Pingping's necklace in, because the window was narrow, Xu Boan only stuffed the chain of the gold necklace into it, and asked, "It's just right, you come to help me see what is the difference between these yellow goods and the ones in your hand."

Soon, Zou Shengsheng saw a long gold rope sticking through the window of his room.

The golden rope was quite thick and very long, and if you looked out carefully, you couldn't see the tail at all.

Zou Shengsheng saw it in his eyes, hurriedly walked a few steps forward to the gold necklace, stretched out his hand and touched it carefully, lowered his head from time to time to sniff the smell, and even wanted to gnaw it with his teeth, but the chain was too thick and smooth for him, and he couldn't put his mouth at all.

Seeing this, Xu Bo'an made up his mind, after all, the gold is relatively soft, and it is secondary to let him take a bite and have a mark, after all, the villains are already small, and their mouths are even more slight, and they can't see it when they take a bite. But if it is contaminated with a man's saliva, it will be too awkward in my heart.

Zou Shengsheng said excitedly: "Grandpa Mountain God, this is simply the best of the yellow goods!" It's much better than my yellow goods. If Grandpa Mountain God agrees, Xiaomin wants to use this good yellow goods to redo the golden body for Grandpa Mountain God. ”

Xu Boan hurriedly refused: "This is not necessary, I still have other uses for this thing, I will give you some more in the future."

Zou Shengsheng has been doing yellow goods for half his life, and his love for gold is a must, and he immediately said excitedly: "Thank you Grandpa Mountain God!" If Xiaomin can get this treasure, he will make the brightest golden statue in the world for the mountain god grandfather one day. ”

Good guy, this big cake is really drawn with your mouth open, and your apprentice has followed you to eat a lot of big cakes.

"Well, I'll give it to you tomorrow." Xu Bo'an changed his words and said: "By the way, you still have extra yellow goods in your hands right now, give me some to use first."

Hearing that Grandpa Mountain God will give him this good yellow goods tomorrow, Zou Shengsheng's excited face turned red, and when he heard Xu Bo'an's second half of the sentence, Zou Shengsheng was suddenly a little surprised, and his expression froze, it was called a funny.

Zou Shengsheng gritted his teeth and said: "Back to the mountain god's grandfather, Xiaomin hasn't saved much yellow goods over the years, except for the piece in his hand, there are only some leftovers left, if the mountain god grandfather needs it, but please take it all."

Xu Boan was about to respond, when he saw the phone ring suddenly. Seeing that it was his neighbor Lu Yan's phone, Xu Boan answered it.

"Brother Xu, are you at home?"

Xu Boan responded: "Yes, what instructions does Brother Lu have?"

Lu Yan smiled: "Haha, don't you dare to give instructions, I'll go back immediately, I want to go to your place to sit for a while, will it be convenient for you to see you for a while?"

"It's convenient, Brother Lu is here, it's convenient at any time."

"Okay, then we'll be decided, I'll be there in a moment."

Because he wanted to entertain guests, Xu Boan put away the bonsai, left the teacup with the pangolin in the bedroom, and went to the living room to wait for the arrival of the landing rock.

Soon, Lu Yan came.

He didn't come empty-handed, in his hand, he carried a beautiful canvas bag, the bag was square, and it was printed with the exquisite logo and signature of Dongjiang Mining Group.

"Hehe, I just got some good things today, I thought that my brother should like it, so I brought it to you."

"I'm coming, I'm coming, what else do I bring!"

"This is not an ordinary thing, this is the coal sculpture made by the research center under our mining group, all of which are made of high-quality anthracite, non-toxic and harmless original ecology, your house should have just been bought, and it is still a little empty, I am thinking about bringing it to you as an ornament."

"I just moved here, and I haven't figured out how to arrange it yet, thank you Brother Lu for your concern."

As Lu Yan spoke, he took out a beautiful square box from the bag, and when the box was opened again, it revealed a hill-style coal sculpture fixed to the base.

This coal sculpture, only the size of a palm, exudes a quiet and solemn beauty in the deep black color of the coal.

The surface texture of the coal sculpture is rich, which should be borrowed from the original natural texture of the coal, which perfectly expresses the magic of nature.

Although the hill is not large, it is finely carved out of the ups and downs of the mountains and rivers, and the vertical and horizontal ravines. Those subtle textures, under the reflection of the light, shimmer with a mysterious luster, making people feel as if they can hear the sound of the mountain breeze blowing and the murmuring of water.

What's more worth mentioning is that the details of the coal carving are very finely handled. The trees and rocks on the mountain peaks are carved to life, as if they are a microcosm of nature. And the caves and paths hidden between the mountains are even more amazing.

Xu Bo'an saw it in his eyes and loved it in his heart, this hill-style coal sculpture is not only a work of art, but also a reverence and praise for nature. It allows people to appreciate it while also feeling the magic and endless charm of nature.

Such a good thing, put it in a bonsai, it is a miracle!

Xu Bo'an praised again and again: "Amazing, it's really amazing, the sheep intestine path above can be depicted so clearly and realistically, I like this baby very much, then I won't be polite to Brother Lu, I will be disrespectful to this thing."

Lu Yan saw that he had given the right gift, and immediately said happily: "Haha, it's not a treasure, don't be polite to me, we do this, it's not valuable, if you like it, I'll take you to see our research center when you go back, what style you like, just ask."

Xu Boan said with a smile: "Haha, he is worthy of being the boss of a mining company, he is imposing, unlike us who do engineering, and can only deal with reinforced concrete."

Lu Yan sighed: "Hey, this is just catching up with a good society, catching the east wind, my grandfather's generation was born without work, and it was really not easy at that time." Not only do you have to chisel coal with a pickaxe, load coal with a shovel, but you also have to carry out the coal basket by basket.

By the way, speaking of which, I have already arranged the anthracite you want, it is all refined coal, and it will be in place in the next two days, you remember to implement the storage location. ”

"Understood, let Brother Lu bother."

"What is this, it's just a gesture." As he spoke, Lu Yan took out a beautiful leather box from the bag and opened it: "By the way, this is also an artificial diamond developed by our group's research center, which is almost exactly the same as a natural diamond, set on a custom pure gold dial, and we are going to create a high-end watch comparable to Rolex in the next step, you just help us try it out and give advice!"

The leather box opens. A gleaming piece of watch leaked inside.

Good fellows, good gold. That's not it.
