"How about you take me around and take a look. The main thing is probably cutting. We basically cut about one to two tons of rough stone every month. As for processing, let's take a look first." Mrs. Song said.

After taking a sip of the tea handed to her by Guan Fei on the table, she stood up and said.

"Sister Song, please come here. Our factory now has a total of 5 wire cutting machines, two oil cutting machines, and a computer engraving machine. This is the bracelet workbench..." Zhang Ling said

Then Mrs. Song began to visit the small factory.

Guan Fei smiled and said to Zhang Dao: "Master Zhang, your name is indeed the best."

"You brat, I let you take advantage of me again. Lao Song has made appointments with me several times and wants me to carve something for him. I really don't have time now. I can't carve my own work, and now it's being carved by someone else."

I've caught you and I'm afraid I won't be able to escape this time." Zhang Dao laughed and cursed.

"Master Zhang, you can't accept a few more apprentices. Now I see that other masters' studios recruit many apprentices, and then let the apprentices make embryos and shape them first. In the last step, they refine it themselves, and then they all belong to the masters who have failed.

Isn't that enough?" Guan Fei suggested.

Zhang Dao shook his head and said: "This is indeed a quick profit in the short term, but once your brand is destroyed, customers will no longer trust you. Besides, young people are impetuous now. They are not as hardworking as when we entered the industry. Master

Say something

Fuji, I had two apprentices. They both learned a little bit from them for a few months and then went out to set up their own business. They also used my name and claimed to be my direct disciples. If I hadn't discovered it earlier, I would have been like this.

I've already been ruined by others by calling out my reputation."

"How about I recommend an apprentice to you? I have a little brother here who has learned some hand carving before. Can you take the time to give me some advice? Don't worry, you don't need to pay the salary. I'll ask him to prepare a set of apprenticeship rituals for you?" Chatting

At this point, Guan Fei suddenly remembered that Liang Yikai had told her before that Li Xing had learned some simple carving when he was in Piao State, and he said it smoothly.

"Why, the idea has come to me, an old man? I don't have time to lead an apprentice." Zhang Dao shook his head and refused.

"Can you just give me some pointers? The young man is very attentive and down-to-earth in his work. He can only help me organize the rough stones and clean the house. You see, I have so many leftover materials that I have to use a computer to carve them."

If you send it out for repair, you can just give it a few clicks and I can save some processing fees, do you think so?" Guan Fei discussed.

"What do you think of me? You have just learned a little and you want me to give you some advice? I don't have the time to tease you." Zhang Dao shook his head and refused.

At this time, Yikai, the forehead man next to him, took out a pendant from his arms and placed it in front of Zhang Dao: "Master Zhang, take a look. This is the gadget that our little brother figured out by himself. Do you think it's okay?"

What Liang Yikai took out was only about the size of his thumb. It was a carving of the three-headed dragon god of the Dai people, shaped like a cobra, with a single horn at the top and a vague human figure sitting cross-legged under the abdomen. The carving was a little rough, but the basic charm was revealed.

.

Zhang Dao took it and glanced at it. When he was about to put it back, he suddenly took his hand back and turned the snake god's back to him. Then he asked Guan Fei to light the light from the front and shine it on the pendant. It changed a few times.

From an angle, he looked up at Guan Fei in surprise: "You said this person has only learned sculpture for a few days?"

Guan Fei nodded: "To tell you the truth, this is our little brother from Piao country. He is Chinese. He has not received any formal education, but he is very down-to-earth in his work. This is mentioned casually. If you don't want to

Forget it."

"Young man has quite an idea. Isn't it convenient for you to bring it over now for me to take a look at?" Zhang Dao asked.

"Okay, I'll call him right now, or I'll pick him up right now!" Liang Yikai knew the opportunity was too late to miss, so he stood up and strode out.

Guan Fei poured a cup of tea for Zhang Dao, handed it to Zhang Dao and asked: "Master Zhang, is there anything novel about this thing?"

Zhang Dao smiled and said: "Give me the flashlight." He took the flashlight from Guan Fei, turned the snake's back to Guan Fei, and then lit the flashlight and shined it on the front of the snake god. The light and shadow effect made the figure on the snake's belly appear through the snake's back.

come out.

"Have you seen the Buddha's shadow on the snake's belly?" Zhang Dao asked.

Guan Fei nodded: "Is there anything special?" As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized something was wrong. Looking from the back, the stolen Buddha shadow was facing the rear.

"Huh?" Just when Guan Fei discovered this, Zhang Dao continued: "Move left and right."

Guan Fei moved left and right, and was surprised to find that the Buddha's shadow would keep facing him as he moved. Although it was not obvious, he could still feel it.

"How...how did you do this?" Guan Fei exclaimed.

"If this material is planted with better water, the effect will be more obvious." Zhang Dao smiled and turned off the flashlight.

"What kind of carving is this?" Guan Fei asked.

"Concave carving, carving from the back, uses light and shadow effects to penetrate to the front, forming a three-dimensional image. It is very creative and creative. This technique has only been used in crystal and amber carving before. This is the first time anyone has tried it on jade.

This kind of carving technique is very thoughtful for a young man." Zhang Dao said with a smile.

"Master Zhang, your heart is moved." Guan Fei said with a smile.

"Sculpting techniques can be acquired through training, but for the conception of materials, creativity is innate spirituality. Sculpting techniques are just a way to assist in presenting the ideas in your mind. Take a look first, you boy.

It always brings me surprises." Zhang Dao said with a smile.

"What, Master Zhang, I am actually a very thoughtful person. How about you drive one sheep and herd two sheep..." Guan Fei rubbed his hands and said.

"What kind of work do you have? Show it to me first?" Zhang Dao looked at Guan Fei with a half-smile.

"This is not available for the time being, but I have studied engineering drawing, and I think I can specialize in sculpting landscape architecture." Guan Fei said with a smile.

"Haha..." After Zhang Dao snorted, he picked up the tea cup and changed the topic: "Drink tea, drink tea, Xiaoguan, the tea here is quite good."

"Master Zhang, you are a bit offensive." Guan Fei said gloomily.

"You are considered a boss now, so you still have the time to calm down and hone your carving skills and do your professional work. Otherwise, you will not be as good at everything." Zhang Dao said while taking a sip of tea.
