Chapter 69
An Xin didn't know anything about mahogany before. It wasn't until Xu Jingxing made furniture for Xu Zhikang that she knew that there was such a kind of wood that was priced like gold in the world. Forty-one tons of Ketan is a very luxurious thing.

Fortunately now, she directly saw more than one million tons of small-leaf red sandalwood materials, and there were 100 tons of them. It is worth 3000 to [-] million, and then the whole person is not good. He hesitated for a long time at a piece of material with a chainsaw and couldn't make a knife.

If you think about it, based on the calculation of 100 million yuan per ton, one catty is 500 yuan, and one gram is five yuan. Accidentally cut such a small piece, hundreds of thousands of dollars will be gone, if a piece of board is scrapped, at least five figures will be in vain.

Faced with such a precious material, who can do it?

Not to mention peace of mind, even Xu Jingxing was a little nervous when he moved the saw, but his psychological quality was excellent after all, and he had been exposed to Ketan materials from Xu Zhikang. They are all luxury goods. The unit price of 100 yuan and the unit price of [-] million yuan are both high prices that he cannot afford. In his mind, there is not much difference between the two.

So he was only a little nervous for a short moment, and then he started working wholeheartedly. After noticing An Xin's hesitation, he smiled and comforted her and asked her to draw lines on the drawings. It's fine, just let her get used to it first, when she really realizes that these expensive woods are just woods, it's not too late to get started, otherwise it may cause waste.

After getting started, Xu Jingxing also had to admit that the red sandalwood was indeed not comparable to Ketan, not to mention the fineness and hardness of the wood, but the aroma that hit the face when it was cut was worth the price.

According to the usual practice, Xu Jingxing still started with ordinary small items, because he and An Xin were the only two, and An Xin couldn't help much, so he had to do many things by himself, and the lobular red sandalwood was really heavy, even he felt Somewhat tired, I worked until midnight to make a Nanguan hat chair.

The official hat chair is divided into the southern official hat chair and the four-faced official hat chair. The shape of the two is slightly different. The armrests and the corners of the head of the four-faced official hat chair continue to extend outward, so it is called the four-headed one.On the other hand, the Nanguan hat chair has rounded corners at the junction of the armrest and the head and the upright legs, which looks more restrained and more ergonomic, with a deep and restrained aesthetic feeling.

The official hat chair made by Xu Jingxing did not use too many decorative patterns, but adopted the simplest and most simple workmanship. The upright column was used as a mortise, and the underside of the two ends of the brain was used as a mortise and tenon socket, which was pressed on the upright column to form a Comfortable rounded corners, one horizontal and one vertical arcs connecting the rounded corners, and a plane similar to corbels in the building is cut out at the inner corners.

The rest of the brain is treated in this way, and the same is true for the armrests. Every corner of the whole chair is polished smooth and round, and the legs of the backrest and armrests are even bent into two irregular arcs. An arc is sharply polished in the middle, which looks like a natural wear mark that has been used for a long time.

It looks simple, but the workmanship is quite exquisite. On this unremarkable chair, he used crafts such as pot-shaped opening, one piece of wood, and backgammon, which not only make the chair stronger, but also more Beautiful, and very meaningful.

For example, backgammon chasing is actually a technique for placing crosspieces when making four-legged chairs. The frontal crosspieces are the lowest, the sides are slightly higher, and the rear is the highest. This can prevent the structure from being damaged due to concentrated mortises. Solidity, but the word "backgammon" is particularly auspicious when paired with the name "official hat chair", and this traditional style is immediately highlighted.

And this is just one of the small details. In fact, in the production of traditional furniture, there are many similar details. There are many types of coupons. The most commonly used are oval rings, dragon pattern rings, and fish maw rings. , Begonia coupons, rectangular coupons, pot door coupons, etc., each has its own particularity, if you don’t like it, you can also design your own patterns and shapes.

But Zhou Zhenshan likes to be more traditional, so he chose the most common and typical Humen Couponkou.

While doing it, he explained these little common senses to Zhou Zhenshan and An Xin.

Zhou Zhenshan didn't understand, because he was illiterate, but he was very satisfied, because that's what he wanted.

An Xin didn't understand much either, but she tried her best to remember every word Xu Jingxing said, because Xu Jingxing told her very early on that if she wanted to make a name for herself in the field of wood carving, she must have a profound traditional cultural heritage.What is the background?The exquisite energy revealed in the details is the foundation.

Xu Jingxing himself had been influenced by his father for so many years before he understood this knowledge. He really couldn't learn this knowledge in school, let alone in those carpentry teaching courses, so he could occasionally learn it when he was studying with some elderly masters. Learn a little fur.

Of course, there are also people who understand these things, but those who understand the theory don’t necessarily know how to do it, and those who know how to do it don’t necessarily understand it. There are not many people like Xu Jingxing who really understand these things and can make real objects by themselves, especially Xu Jingxing. Knowing is not 01:30. If he really records all he knows, a book about traditional furniture and traditional culture can be published.

It's a pity that even Xu Jingxing himself didn't realize this, and only thought that these things were miscellaneous knowledge with little practicality.

After all, he still had too little communication with his peers. Since he entered the industry, he met a real peer, and turned into an enemy in the end.

However, this did not affect Xu Jingxing's ability to make money. After the trial Nanguan hat chair came out, he calmed down, and Zhou Zhenshan was completely relieved. He patted Xu Jingxing's shoulder and said kindly: "Xiao Xu, your craftsmanship and character are outstanding." Nothing to say, just do it boldly, greet me if you don’t have enough material, and tell me about other things, I’ll help you deal with it.”

Hearing this, Xu Jingxing scratched his head, and said a little embarrassedly: "There is really something wrong, that, can I pay some wages in advance?"

"No problem," Zhou Zhenshan agreed without hesitation, earning him [-] yuan on the spot without a receipt, and finally asked: "Is it enough? Do you want to transfer more?" Then he said: "My work here Don't worry, it's okay to wait until your sister's operation is completed, anyway, you won't do things that don't work for money, right?"
