"Fat man, then again, your offer just now was too aggressive."
Zheng Tianlong thought of the way Bai Jianyun bid just now, and felt funny in his heart. He knew that if it weren't for Bai Jianyun's "spending money" method, there would be no way to win the last 1 million.
Bai Jianyun had a triumphant expression on his face, opened his mouth, and said: "I saw what they were doing, they just wanted it but didn't want to pay for it, so I threw the money at them generously. When they saw me like this, they would definitely
I backed down."
Zheng Tianlong nodded, "That's true. You have a pretty accurate grasp of their psychology."
As they spoke, Zheng Tianlong and Bai Jianyun quickened their pace and walked out. Now that the wood had been bought, the two decided to go to Ma Fang immediately to cut the wood to make a sign. Besides, Zheng Tianlong was also curious about the wood he bought.
Does a piece of red sandalwood have holes in it?
"Hey, you are back?"
Hearing the sound of the car's engine, Ma Fang thought it was his client and walked out to take a look. However, he did not expect that it was Zheng Tianlong and Bai Jianyun who left and returned.
"Ha! Uncle Ma, we went to the place you mentioned and bought a piece of wood."
Bai Jianyun shouted loudly, and then dragged the red sandalwood stick he bought before from the car.
"Ah? Rosewood?"
Ma Fang was stunned. He didn't expect that Zheng Tianlong and Bai Jianyun would get back a piece of red sandalwood, and it was so thick.
"That's right, someone happened to be betting on wood, so we bought it."
Ma Fang's expression changed and he quickly said, "How much did you spend to buy it?"
How could someone betting on Trojans not know this? But even a person like him who has been dealing with wood all his life would not dare to try it easily. The risk involved is simply too great. Now he regrets why he didn't play with wood before.
Zheng Tianlong and Bai Jianyun went together. If he were here, he would definitely not let Zheng Tianlong and Bai Jianyun participate in such a thing.
"Not much, only 1 million."
Ma Fang immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, the loss is inevitable, but it can't be too much."
"Ah? Why? Uncle Ma, you can't say that. Why do you say that the red sandalwood I bought will definitely lose money?"
Bai Jianyun quit now and started shouting immediately.
"Ten sandalwoods and nine empty ones, have you heard? The red sandalwood you bought is so big, it can be basically said that 99% of it is empty. If you can't get out the material, the red sandalwood will be a waste. It's not a loss.
What else can be done?”
Ma Fang shook his head. He was not optimistic about this piece of red sandalwood. Although he could tell at a glance that it was pure wild Indian small red sandalwood. It is extremely rare to find one of this size. But so what? What's inside?
If you make a big hole, no matter how big the wood is, it will be useless. Maybe you can only take out some materials for making chopsticks, which will definitely be a loss.
"Hey, Uncle Ma, I don't think so. Maybe this red sandalwood is solid?"
Ma Fang was stunned by Zheng Tianlong's words, but after a while he shook his head and said firmly: "Master Zheng, this is impossible. I have seen more than ten thick red sandalwoods like this and cut three or four of them.
Every one of them is hollow inside."
"There must be exceptions. How were the furniture in ancient times made? You know, they were all made from a single piece of wood."
Ma Fang has no way to deny this, because Zheng Tianlong is right, there are indeed very large red sandalwoods. You must know that some of the antique furniture that exists now is made of whole large red sandalwoods - even more than one person can hold.
There are also some, such as some tables, etc. If they were all empty, then such furniture would not be possible...
"You are right, but that was in ancient times. There were a lot of rosewood at that time, and it often took a whole country to produce a few pieces of furniture like this. How can there be such good things in this era?"
"Can't we find out if we cut it open?"
Zheng Tianlong understood that Ma Fang was still not optimistic about the red sandalwood he bought, but he firmly believed in his own powers, and whether the red sandalwood was hollow or not, he would know by cutting it open.
"Okay, let's cut it open and take a look."
Zheng Tianlong, Bai Jianyun and Ma Fang walked into the processing factory nearby. This is where Ma Fang usually makes and processes all kinds of furniture. Naturally, all the tools are available.
"Ah? Rosewood?"
There were workers hired by Ma Fang all around. The sharp-eyed and experienced workers immediately recognized that the wood Bai Jianyun was holding was red sandalwood, and it looked like he was about to cut the wood. They all gathered around him. Although they all worked with wood.
It's been a long time, but I haven't had many opportunities to see precious wood like rosewood.
"Yes, it turns out it is really red sandalwood, but it should be so big that there are holes in it."
"Well, that's indeed the case. Doesn't it mean that there are ten sandalwoods and nine empty spaces?"
…
"Bang~"
Putting the wood on the sawing table, Bai Jianyun patted the dirt on his hands. He was originally confident, but at this time he couldn't help but feel uneasy. There was no way, even masters like Ma Fang were not optimistic about it, and there were all the disciples and disciples around him.
How can he maintain a firm position in the discussion?
"How to cut?"
Ma Fang looked at Zheng Tianlong and knew that it was definitely not Bai Jianyun who made the decision at this time.
"The purpose of taking this red sandalwood is to use it as a shop sign. Uncle Ma, how do you think it should be cut?"
Ma Fang was experienced and understood when Zheng Tianlong said, "In this way, we can open directly from the middle so that we can take out the wooden board."
"Okay, no problem, just cut it like this."
Zheng Tianlong agreed to Ma Fang's suggestion.
Ma Fang nodded slightly, stretched out his hand and pressed the switch on the side of the saw table.
"Buzz~~~~"
The rotating chainsaw made a sharp sound, and the heartbeats of everyone including Zheng Tianlong suddenly accelerated.
Because it is cut from the middle, this time it is really "one knife to heaven and one knife to hell".
"This... Tianlong, are you sure?"
Bai Jianyun felt that his mouth was dry. This kind of thing was really exciting. He even felt it was more exciting than picking up a leaked magic weapon. After all, he didn't know much about the magic weapon and couldn't see anything. The wood in front of him was different.
Even a blind person can see it without cutting it.
"There's definitely no problem."
Although he was a little worried, Zheng Tianlong was very confident.
Ma Fang took a deep breath. He also understood the consequences of his cuts: one would be Zheng Tianlong and Bai Jianyun's 1 million in vain, and the other would be paradise. But after all, he was quite experienced and calmed down immediately.
, pushing the wood forward steadily with both hands.
"Silk~~~~"
The high-speed electric saw blade cut into the wood, and a stream of tiny wood chips fell out.
Ma Fang's hands are very steady, neither anxious nor impatient. The red sandalwood board is delicate and hard. You must not rush. Otherwise, the surface of the cut material will be extremely rough. Not only does it take a lot of effort during processing, it also wastes the wood. You must know the properties of red sandalwood.
Every inch is extremely precious.
Bai Jianyun stopped talking at this time and stared at the chainsaw as if it was his enemy.
Although not like Bai Jianyun, Zheng Tianlong also had a serious expression on his face, waiting for the result after Ma Fang cut the wood...
Ma Fang's expression was also very serious. He slowly pushed the red sandalwood forward, and then carefully felt the vibration coming from the wood. He had cut countless pieces of wood. What kind of wood did he feel during the cutting process?
Ma Fang could know the situation simply by feeling without looking at it.
As the chainsaw slowly cut in, all Ma Fang's energy was concentrated on his hands.
"Hey, it's solid~~~~"
The electric saw had cut into the wood about ten centimeters, and Ma Fang knew from the feeling on his hand that no hole had been cut, because the vibration frequency was the same from the beginning to the present, which meant that there was no change in the wood.
However, Ma Fang remained unmoved at this time. There were still relatively few cuts in, so it was normal that no holes appeared.
"Sisi~~~~~~"
The entire huge processing workshop fell silent, with only the sound of the electric saw cutting on the wood. Everyone even subconsciously held their breath. No one was still nervous under such a situation.
Bai Jianyun secretly wiped his hands on his pants a few times. He had no choice but to do it. He was so nervous that his palms were sweating.
Zheng Tianlong also became nervous. He also saw some clues. The whole red sandalwood tree was more than one meter long, and now it was 30 centimeters deep. However, everything was quite normal: if it was cut into a hollow, the sound would definitely be heard.
It will be different!
"There's a chance!"
Zheng Tianlong thought silently in his heart.
However, the more this happens, the more nervous it becomes. No one dares to make a sound. In the huge processing workshop, there is only the sound of the electric saw cutting on the wood when it rotates.
Ma Fang remained calm and pushed the red sandalwood forward slowly with both hands, but in his heart he was extremely surprised and even shocked: at this time, more than one-half had been cut, but no matter from the sound or the
Or judging from the vibration frequency, there is nothing strange at all, which means that there are no holes at all in the parts that have been cut!
Shitanjiu says not only that large red sandalwood is prone to holes, but also that when there are holes, there are also large holes, often starting from the center of the wood!
However, when the red sandalwood piece Zheng Tianlong bought was cut into pieces, no small holes appeared.
"Amazing, this is really amazing!"
Ma Fang, who has been dealing with wood for decades, can imagine the shock in his heart at this time. If it weren't for the fact that this was the most important moment for cutting red sandalwood, he would have wanted to scream. But at this time, he could only
Control your surprise tightly, and control the red sandalwood in your hand more carefully, because this will be a red sandalwood of great value. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation at (.)
