052: The True Essence of Sculpture "A Li, it's a pity that you don't become a beast trainer."

Bi Han complained while drinking water.

He has a little understanding of Dahei's deeds, after all, Bi Han has come here many times to cheat for food and drink.It's just that he didn't expect Dahei to become a monster in just a short time in Lin Li's hands, a super fighting dog that can kill bulldogs in seconds, it's really unbelievable.

"Beast trainer?"

Lin Li was stimulated by the name, and vaguely grasped something, but he couldn't think of a general idea.

Bi Han didn't pay attention to Lin Li's expression, his attention was on Dahei, and he sighed "squeaky" from time to time, and finally said to Lin Li: "A Li, to be honest, Mr. Tu is very loyal today. Yes. When you offended Young Master Yue, he took the initiative to stand up and pull you."

Knowing that Bi Han was still interceding for Mr. Tu, Lin Li became a little impatient, and refused, "Brother Bi Han, I won't be someone else's subordinate. It might be okay if I pretend to be a consultant or something, but call me It is absolutely impossible to be ordered by others."

Bi Han seldom heard such ruthless words from Lin Li, so he quickly remedied: "It's not that I'm wordy, but Mr. Tu is indeed a good boss. He has already told us that if you are willing to go there, an annual salary of one million is absolutely not Problem. If you think about it, you can buy a house in a year, who wouldn’t want such a job.”

Lin Li knew that Bi Han had good intentions, so he could only say carefully: "Brother Bi Han, don't bother with this issue anymore. You can go back and make it clear to Mr. Tu that I can help him as a friend, but never May be his subordinate."

Bi Han replied with deep regret: "Since this is the case, then I can only tell him this."

Lin Li smiled slightly, which relieved a knot in his heart.

"Then I take my leave!"

Bi Han checked the time and got up to leave.But he seemed to think of something, he calmed down leisurely and said: "There is another important news that I forgot to inform you."

Lin Li nodded.

The news that made Bi Han so nervous must be extraordinary.

After sorting out his thoughts, Bi Han said: "You also know that I have gotten very close to Mr. Tu recently, because he is an important fulcrum for me to build a relationship network. And a few days ago, I was the one who patted Mr. Tu and the others in the club. On the night when Chest assured that Dahei was the king of dogs, I heard them say that Myanmar is actively cracking down on border smuggling and strictly controlling the export of jadeite, and the price of jadeite may usher in a new round of skyrocketing."

Lin Li's mind tensed up.

He had tasted the sweetness of rising jadeite before, and now it was even more violent, telling him how to calm down.

Bi Han still didn't seem to find it convincing, and continued to intensify the bombardment of information: "A Li, don't look at Mr. Tu who seems to be rude, but he is actually very careful. He hired a professional assessment immediately after he got the news Team, let them estimate the future market of the emerald market. Don’t tell me, he is holding a piece of confidential information that we don’t know.”

Lin Li smiled wryly and said, "Since it's a secret, it's impossible for you to know, after all, you're not his confidant."

Bi Han smiled and said, "You're only half right. Although Mr. Tu didn't tell me the details, he did tell me the bottom line, saying that the future market will be extremely hot. Moreover, the Myanmar government's efforts to reduce exports are too strong. Then there will be a large area of ​​reluctance to sell in the country, and at that time, jadeite will have to rise by at least 50%."

"half!"

Lin Li finally couldn't sit still.

You must know that the initial price of his previous ice seed green onion core was 60, but after only one month, it was sold for a price of just over 80.If it is increased by half now, it will be 120 million.

Think about how Mr. Tu can earn half of the money if he pays some money and hides it for a period of time. Where can he do such a business.Compared with the emerald dealers, those real estate developers who have been scolded to pieces are many times more merciful.

Lin Li then thought that he would be able to find 200 million emeralds in this way, and carefully treasure them. After a few months, it would become 300 million, which would be equivalent to an extra house.

When Bi Han saw Lin Li's rippling eyes, he knew that Lin Li was moved, so he gave Lin Li a base first, and said, "A Li, you think you should let the matter of Mr. Tu go first, and don't talk about it. I think it will take a few days. Mr. Tu personally came to invite you and asked you to help sieve the wool."

Lin Li nodded and said, "Although I don't want to be Mr. Tu's subordinate, there should be no problem with a little cooperation."

"That's good."

Bi Han said: "What I am most worried about now is your college entrance examination. Although you have been studying hard behind closed doors recently, you are always running around because of me or our affairs. I heard that you still have to pick up the rain every day. Home, it's hard enough, pay attention, after all, the college entrance examination is the foundation."

"I see."

"But the college entrance examination is not fundamental."

Lin Li replied with a smile, and the latter sentence was from the bottom of his heart.

Go to university for what?

Enrich themselves?

That's just a joke. The cruel society will teach you what is elimination and what is reality.At that time, the students who have stepped out of the ivory tower will understand what is their foundation.

Since the upheaval ten years ago, Lin Li has a clear understanding of this society.And his several years of setting up a stall in the antique street made him grasp the essence of society and his own mission.

"Okay, let's really go!"

Bi Han really said goodbye this time.

Lin Li didn't bother, and sent Bi Han out.

But just as Lin Li walked out the door, he noticed a sneaky figure at the corner of the street hastily hiding in the street.Lin Li looked at Dahei, but found that it didn't show any signs, so he ignored it, and finally closed the door to prepare for a rest.

After a busy day today, Lin Li is indeed a little tired.

But when he wanted to sit down and take a rest, he saw the unfinished wood carvings on the side, and immediately thought of Lin Tiancheng's rush work in recent nights.

In the past, the Lin family lived on Lin Tiancheng's decoration wages and wood carving orders. As for the Lin Li's street stalls, they were just small patches of life and could not play a decisive role.However, during the days when Lin Tiancheng was hospitalized, several orders with large profits came suddenly. One of the orders was so profitable that Lin Tiancheng agreed without even thinking about it. A little bit of creativity cannot be imitated blindly, so Lin Tiancheng couldn't sleep well these days, except for the design and sculpture, the rest time was greatly reduced.

"Maybe I can try."

Lin Li's engraving is good, and the intermediate level is full of bottlenecks. He only needs to take a small step to be promoted to the advanced level equal to his father.But it was such a small gap that Lin Li couldn't bear the lucrative order, so he could only watch Lin Tiancheng busy.

Lin Li has been at the intermediate level 99.99% for a while, and it is indeed depressing that he has not made progress.

Lin Li calmed down and meditated: "I have recently carved 1000 woodcarvings instead of 800, and I still can't be promoted. It seems that quantitative changes cannot lead to qualitative changes. I have to complete a woodcarving that I haven't finished before in order to break through the bottleneck of the intermediate level."

But thinking about it, Lin Li didn't have any idea of ​​a breakthrough.

"Hey, root carving is better!"

When Lin Li saw the root carvings placed in the hall, he sighed sincerely: "The root carvings pay attention to three parts of man-made and seven parts of natural work. Because the seven parts of natural work can save countless creative thoughts, you only need to add bricks and tiles according to the natural artistic conception. enough."

"Natural artistic conception..."

After whispering here, Lin Li suddenly understood.

Lin Li involuntarily walked towards the root carving works placed in every corner, rubbing them one by one, carefully and touchingly, not missing every corner and every misplacement.

In the end, as if he had received some inspiration, Lin Li came to his father's workshop, sat down quietly, picked up a piece of old wood and a carving knife, and started his creation.

Lin Li's sculpture this time is not an imitation of other sculptures, but purely his own creation.

In the root carving just now, he felt the simple and heavy atmosphere from the roots.This breath contained the baptism of wind and rain, as well as the changes of vicissitudes of life, which aroused Lin Li's inexplicable touch deep in his heart.It was also this mysterious atmosphere and inexplicable emotion that gave Lin Li an idea and an artistic conception.

With Lin Li waving, single-edged milling cutter, ball-end milling cutter, double-edged ball-end milling cutter, double-edged helical milling cutter, double-edged straight-groove milling cutter, three-edged cutter, four-edged cutter, flat-bottomed pointed cutter, lace cutter, The clearing knife and other carving knives seemed to come alive in Lin Li's hands, unpredictable and unpredictable.

This knife method is no longer an ordinary carving knife method, but an art, which has already condensed the artistic crystallization of calligraphy and painting.

With less and less wood, the original outline of the work is becoming more and more clear.

This is an old man, an old man sitting on a wooden pier and meditating.The solemnity of contemplation and the condensed vicissitudes of life are vividly displayed under Lin Li's knife.If there are other people present, they will definitely admire Lin Li's sword skills and praise Lin Li's works.

After some time, Lin Li finally stopped his knife.

"Ding, congratulations to the player for comprehending: the true meaning of carving."

"Ding, congratulations to the player for carving a master-level perfect work and successfully promoted to a senior engraver. The system rewards the player with 10 experience points and 1 prestige point."

Lin Li stopped.

10 points of experience and 1 point of prestige are not outstanding, the problem lies in the word "master".You must know that Lin immediately succeeded in being promoted, that is, he is only a senior sculptor, and there is still a long way to go before he is a master sculptor.

And when Lin Li looked up the promotion information in the system, he became more and more confused.

His current professional level is - Senior Carver 21.44%, which can be said to have jumped by half a level.But even with this small half-level multiplication, it is impossible to complete a master-level creation. After all, there is still a gap of 78.56% from the master level.

But when Lin Li read all the system information, he realized how crucial his comprehension was, and the reason was very simple, he comprehended the true meaning of engraving.Since then, Lin Li has the realm of a master sculptor, but only has the craftsmanship of a high-level sculptor, which is the so-called high-sighted but low-handed.

But that's the case, from now on, before Lin Li was promoted to the realm of master, there was no such thing as a bottleneck in his carving skills.

It can be said that as long as Lin Li practices seriously, he is a surefire master of carving.

"Ha ha……"

Lin Li smiled smugly.

Today's harvest completely surpassed his imagination, laid a solid foundation for his future, and at the same time revealed a new side.
