God-level Golden Hand

Chapter 14

Xu Jingxing spent a lot of thought when carving this big thing, because the wood is almost a piece of waste, not to mention bent, it also has cracks.

If the crack is not deep, it can be easily removed, and the curved material can only be used for carving.

The so-called shape-carving is to look at the ingredients and dishes, what kind of materials are available for what kind of design, it is quite a test of a person's creativity and artistic imagination, in the hands of imaginative woodcarvers, those strange materials are both It can maintain its unique shape and create exquisite works of art.

Xu Jingxing dare not say what kind of master he is, but his imagination is not lacking, and the carving work is not bad. The sculpture of Chang'e Flying to the Moon designed by him is a concentrated expression of his outstanding imagination and exquisite carving skills.

Chang'e flying to the moon itself is not a rare theme, and it is often used in traditional handicrafts, but most of those Chang'e have the same appearance, usually with that kind of desolate and elegant posture, which has not changed since ancient times.

But Xu Jingxing designed a relatively more enchanting Chang'e based on this piece of almond wood scraps with a relatively large curvature. The most typical feature is the three large curves on the carving as a whole, with large radians. , between the belly and the buttocks, and between the thigh and the calf, the three curves are exactly the curves of the wood itself, but after carving out, it makes Chang'e's posture more graceful.

Let's put it this way, his design is quite bold. Who would dare to design Chang'e as a charming and enchanting flying girl?

And he didn't mess around, but made the whole sculpture full of exaggerated and hot temperament, no matter in shape or carving, which is why this sculpture of Chang'e flying to the moon is so eye-catching.

Appropriate innovations on traditional themes naturally have an eye-catching charm.

The old man Gendiao was attracted by this rather daring work. After much deliberation, he was still reluctant to give up. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Three thousand, I'll buy it for three thousand."

Xu Jingxing had been quietly watching the old man's eyes. Although the old man was very sophisticated, his acting skills were still a little worse than that of Lao Yang, and the reluctance in his eyes was almost written on his face.This discovery made him feel relieved, and he pretended to be helpless and sighed: "Old man, there is no such thing as you, I have already given you seven thousand, and you still have to cut down the waist again, are you embarrassed?"

He said and shook his head, "Well, if you really like this Chang'e Flying to the Moon, I'll give you another thousand. If you're not satisfied, then I really have nothing to say."

"Can't it be any cheaper?" The old man asked unwillingly.

"It's impossible!" Xu Jingxing's attitude was extremely firm.

"You..." The old man was a little annoyed, and then he sighed, "Well, you're right, money can't buy your heart, I want this Chang'e, but you have to tell me who the author of this carving is." ?”

After Xu Jingxing received the money, he smiled and replied: "It's far away in the sky, but it's close in front of us."

The old man looked suspiciously at Xu Jingxing for a moment, and finally stared at his palm for a few seconds, "You?" His tone was full of suspicion.

"Not like it?"

"No, the hand that holds the knife all the year round is not like yours."

Xu Jingxing laughed mischievously, "You're always mistaken. I carved these with my own hands. From material selection to waxing, no outsiders participated in all the processes of the sculpture of Chang'e Flying to the Moon."

The old man grabbed Xu Jingxing's palm, looked at it seriously, and shook his head, "Impossible."

Xu Jingxing was amused by the old man, "Why is this impossible? Could it be that I would lie to you about such a trivial matter? What's the point of me doing this? What benefits can I get or something? Besides, this kind of It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, it doesn't seem to make any difference, right?"

"You don't know me?" The old man asked suspiciously when he heard this and examined Xu Jingxing.

"Could it be that you're still some kind of big shot?" Xu Jingxing also became puzzled, this old man couldn't be some kind of celebrity, could he?

"Hehe, it seems that you really don't know me," the old man laughed, "Who is your master?"

"No master, just learned from my dad."

"Oh? Your accent is also from Daocheng. What's your father's name?"

Xu Jingxing became alert, "Do you have any questions?"

"Don't be nervous, I'm just curious, I know most of the woodcarvers in Daocheng, maybe I'm an old friend with your father," the old man quickly explained.

"Well, you probably don't know him, because my father is not a professional, woodcarving is just a hobby, and he has passed away for more than five years," Xu Jingxing shrugged and explained calmly.

"Uh, well, I really might not know you," the old man raised his eyebrows, "Let's get to know each other. My surname is Sun, Sun Liyun."

"Xu Jingxing," Xu Jingxing hastily reported his name. According to what the old man said, the other party should have some seniority in the woodcarving circle in the island city. If he could get in touch with him, there might be unexpected gains.

"Xu Xu Jing Xing, a good name," the old man couldn't help but praise, the phone rang while speaking, he picked it up and looked at it, and threw down a sentence of "communicate more when you have time", then picked up the almond wood carving Chang'e flying to the moon and ran away .

Xu Jingxing blinked, and then realized that he had successfully sold his "Treasure of the Town Stall", and sold it for 6000 yuan, which was 1000 yuan higher than the expected price.

Six thousand!
If you go to work seriously, you can earn so much in a month, but now you can easily get it in one night plus half a morning. The gap is really big enough.

But it also shows that his choice is correct. Although it is still far from 50, the hope is great, and Buddha is within reach.

Feeling the thick stack of banknotes, Xu Jingxing was so excited, he wished he could run to the hospital immediately to tell his sister the good news.He also earned more than 6000 yesterday, but that was accumulated by hundreds and hundreds, and today, the morning market has just started and he has earned more than the whole day yesterday. Can you not be excited?

Unfortunately, there are too few stocks.

Xu Jingxing looked at the few carvings left on the booth, and sighed secretly.There is no way to do this. After all, he only joined the industry two days ago, so he has no accumulation at all, just such a small amount of inventory.

Or, close the stall now?Anyway, I earned 6000 yuan today, so it’s not worth wasting a whole day for the remaining few gadgets. With this time, I can produce more than ten items in stock.

After Xu Jingxing thought about it, he stopped hesitating and closed the stall immediately.

"Hey, Xiao Xu, what are you doing? What's the matter?" Old Yang on the side was envious of Xu Jingxing's earning a fortune. When he saw him close the stall, he asked in surprise. After hearing Xu Jingxing's explanation, his eyes rolled, "How about How about this, such a few gadgets are so troublesome, please pass them on to me, you can tell me a price, and I will take it."
