God-level Golden Hand

Chapter 38

When Xu Jingxing said this, his tone was very relaxed, as if he said it so casually, but if it fell into the ears of the big fat man, it was naked sarcasm.

The fat man flew into a rage, stared at Xu Jingxing and shouted angrily, "Who the hell are you?"

Xu Jingxing curled his lips, "I just said that casually, if I accidentally poked your sore spot, then I apologize, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that set of blueprints was ugly." This apology is better than no apology.

"You, you..." The fat man was speechless for a long time after being choked by Xu Jingxing. He wanted to make a move, but when he saw Xu Jingxing's 1.8-meter height and muscles all over his body, he was scared again, but he didn't say anything. He pointed at Xu Jingxing to threaten Said: "Why do you say that my things are ugly, if you can't say anything, I will never end with you, kid!"

Let me go, this person is too easy to fool, no wonder he can be easily fooled by Xu Zhikang.

Xu Jingxing complained secretly in his heart, but there was a relaxed smile on his face, "If I'm not mistaken, that set of blueprints was designed by someone who learned Dongyang woodcarving, right?"

"Boy, I have some knowledge," the fat man said proudly, "I spent 10 yuan to buy a standard masterpiece. Unfortunately, they are too busy to help me build it."

Xu Jingxing sneered, "It's not that he doesn't have time to help you build it, but he doesn't know how to do carpentry at all."

"Nonsense, he is highly respected in the Woodcarving Association, how could he not even know how to do carpentry?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? Just go and find out. It's not a secret. Why am I lying to you? If I didn't know you and Brother Xu, I wouldn't bother to remind you. Anyway, I'm not the one who was fooled."

"How did I fall for it?" The big fat man's expression changed. "Could it be that this blueprint is fake? Impossible. I've found someone to look at it and they all said it's good."

Xu Jingxing smiled and did not answer directly, "Dongyang Woodcarving is indeed very famous in the woodcarving industry, and the furniture they make is also quite beautiful, but they began to divide their labor decades ago, divided into three types of work: design, blanking, and finishing. , those who do design should do design, those who make blanks should make blanks, and those who repair light should repair light, which is the legendary assembly line operation. But for those without talent, it would be nice to be able to master one of them to make a living.”

"You mean, the master who designed for me is a liar?" The big fat man's face was extremely ugly, and he believed what Xu Jingxing said, because Xu Jingxing really didn't need to lie to him, and these words were true or false, find someone to find out It will be clear after inquiring, and I believe Xu Jingxing will not lie about this kind of issue.

Xu Jingxing still had a calm smile, "It's not necessarily a liar. He must have learned the design of Dongyang woodcarving from a professional master, but he didn't learn well. Let's not talk about the messy composition and unclear layers. The sizes are all wrong, if you don’t believe me, take a look at the design drawing of the peony stool with three curved legs, the leg wraps at the waist, and the size of the mortise on the second left leg.”

Xu Zhikang was taken aback, and quickly dug out the design drawings, found the peony-patterned stool with three curved legs that Xu Jingxing had mentioned, compared them carefully, but still found no problem.

The big fat man was even more confused.

But there is also a professional carpenter in the factory. The master leaned over, looked at it carefully for about ten seconds, and suddenly slapped his thigh, "Oh, there is indeed a problem. When I saw it before, I thought something was wrong. At that time, I just thought That's how this kind of slats are made. I didn't expect the shank to be the wrong size. If you work according to this drawing, it will take time and effort, and it will waste wood. If you make such a wrong shank, the stool leg will be useless. .”

Jian is the name of the connecting part of the legs in wooden furniture, and it plays the role of fixed connection. It is often used in tables, chairs, stools, small tables or big beds. Generally speaking, it is a crossbar, but there are some tricks to pay attention to. Or make a flower plant, or bend an arc, and some simply design it in other shapes. These scorpions with patterns are collectively called huashui.

This three-leg carved peony-patterned stool is five-legged and round, so it is definitely not beautiful to use a regular frame, but the leg-wrapped frame designed as a circle is quite satisfactory. Although it looks like a steering wheel, it does have a frame. The function that the child should have.

It’s just that the author obviously has no practical experience and lacks understanding of carpentry work. When drawing the drawing, he made the dimensions according to the scriptures, but ignored the difference between the mortise and tenon structure of the flower 枨 and ordinary 枨. It is off, although it is not much, but the diameter of the stool leg is less than two centimeters, and the mortise is a few millimeters off, and the tenon of the dowel cannot fit in.

This kind of common-sense mistake could have been avoided, and any serious carpenter can check it out, but it is too difficult for those theorists who have no hands-on experience.

Xu Jingxing also deduced from this that the designer of this blueprint was a theoretical school.

Seeing that Xu Jingxing's words were approved by the carpenter in the factory, the fat man immediately became furious, "Damn it, you dare lie to me, kill him!"

Seeing this, Xu Zhikang glared at Xu Jingxing. This small mistake can be corrected at the beginning of work, and it won't hinder the big deal.Now it's all right, the duck that is about to be cooked is about to fly away, this is a big business worth hundreds of thousands.

Of course Xu Jingxing wouldn't make himself uncomfortable, and he didn't want to let this deal go in vain. He said so, naturally he had other plans.Seeing that the big fat man was furious, he smiled slightly and said, "He really can't lie to you, he can only say that his level is not good. In fact, this set of blueprints he designed still has merits. Let's take that three-legged sculpture As far as the peony-patterned stool is concerned, apart from the small blemishes on the socket, there is nothing to criticize in other aspects, especially the use of the leg-wrapped slats, which is very cleverly used here."

His exaggeration and exaggeration made the fat man realize that Xu Jingxing had other plans, so he asked with a sullen face, "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is that I can help you make a new design based on this, and make your set of furniture more perfect while retaining the advantages," Xu Jingxing looked at the fat man indifferently but confidently.

"You?" The fat man didn't dare to underestimate Xu Jingxing now, but he still had some doubts.

Xu Jingxing smiled and snapped his fingers, "I just helped Brother Xu make a set of furniture and it was completed yesterday. You can observe it and see how good I am."

Xu Zhikang on the side was still complaining about Xu Jingxing at first, but when he heard this, he immediately reacted and took up the conversation excitedly, "Old Liu, this little master Xu's craftsmanship is really not boastful, the set of furniture he made for me is simply amazing Absolutely, even my dad is full of praise, you know, my dad is an old carpenter for decades, he opened the Tianxing furniture factory, you can't trust me, you should trust my dad, right?"
