Reborn Great Nation Craftsman

Chapter 109
After finishing this freehand painting that connects to the future, it took just over an hour to check the time.

Zhang Junping made himself a cup of tea.

The tea is Pu'er tea, which is said to be more than 30 years old and is the same age as the Republic, left by the original owner Guan Jiaming.

It's just the tea set used by Zhang Junping to make tea. If someone who loves tea reads it, he will definitely have the urge to strangle him to death.

A white enamel jar with "Learn from Uncle *****" written on it, printed with the head of ***.

This large enamel jar is 14 cm high and 8 cm in diameter. Making tea with such a jar will definitely quench your thirst.

Zhang Junping is the only one who drinks the 30-year-old Pu'er that is more expensive than gold from an enamel jar.

In fact, Zhang Junping didn't drink like this to show his independence, because he really didn't have a suitable tea set.

There was originally a purple sand tea set left in the study, and it was Huang Yulin's famous work.

But the tea set has been on display for many years, and no one has ever used it. It's good for collection, but it's better to forget it for drinking tea. Zhang Junping really can't muster up the courage.

It's still safe to drink from this enamel jar, which is enjoyable.

After drinking tea for a while, Zhang Junping started to create again.

This time he painted the past, the old Beijing before liberation.

The street is still the same street, the courtyards are still those courtyards, but under the rendering of pen and ink, the whole city looks so desolate.

There are few pedestrians on the street, one is selling vegetables with a load, and the other is selling water with a wheelbarrow.

Under the overpass, there were entertainers from all corners of the country performing hard, but there were only two children and a scrawny old dog standing in front of the booth.

As the sun sets, the sky is mixed with red, black, and gray, giving people an extremely depressing and desolate feeling.

Zhang Junping never experienced the old society before liberation, so this painting is completely imaginary.

However, maybe because he was too involved, he was a little bit involved in the drama. After Zhang Junping finished painting, he felt depressed and suffocated in his heart.

Zhang Junping didn't stop writing at this point, but waited for the ink to dry, and then replaced it with a piece of rice paper, and replaced it with a large brush with a wolf hair.

After dipping enough ink and filling the pen, with a flick of the wrist, the pen moves like a dragon and a snake, brushing and brushing, and a line of words leaps and bounds on the paper.

"I don't see the ancients before, and I don't see the new ones in the future. I think about the long distance of the world, and I feel sad and tearful!"

After finishing writing, Zhang Junping let out a long breath. These 22 words vented all the depression, depression, and loneliness brought about by painting just now.

All negativity stays on paper.

Putting down the pen, Zhang Junping admired his handwriting with his hands behind his back. This handwriting is undoubtedly the best handwriting he has ever written.

However, this text is too depressing and too dark, so it is probably not very popular.

When the ink was dry, Zhang Junping put the words away and put them away.

Then he washed out the brush, cleaned the inkstone, and wiped it with a soft dry cloth. After everything was in order, he turned and left the study.

……

Neighborhood Committee of Wangfujing Street.

"Good leader, thank you leader for supporting us, we will definitely continue to work hard..." Secretary Gao stood behind the desk, hunched over slightly, with a phone in his hand.

After hanging up the phone, Secretary Gao called Aunt Wang and Aunt Fat to the office.

"Sister Lin, Sister Wang, come, please sit down quickly.

Didn’t Xiao Zhang say that he wanted us to help with the woodworking machine?

The leader just called and helped us to solve a band saw, five electric saws, and five electric planes.

Now is the time for him to help us solve the employment problem of unemployed youths. You are familiar with Xiao Zhang, so this task will be entrusted to you.

Our goal is to solve the employment problem of [-] unemployed youths. You must rush them in before Liulichang responds. "

"Success, leave this matter to our elder sisters, secretary, don't worry!" Aunt Wang said patted her chest.

"Secretary, Mr. Zhang is a real person and a person of integrity. Since I told you at the beginning, I think there should be no problem.

However, he used to have only seven people, but now he stuffs thirty people in at once, I'm afraid he won't be able to take care of him. "Aunt Lin is more considerate than Aunt Wang.

"Sister Lin is also right, when the time comes, we will try our best to arrange for him unemployed young people who understand carpentry.

If it is really not possible, it can be solved in batches, and some of them will be solved first before the year, and some will be solved after the next year. "Secretary Gao agrees with Fat Auntie's words.

In a small workshop with seven or eight people, 30 people can be crammed into it all at once. Really, he is not at ease if other people agree or not.

If the small workshop is overwhelmed all of a sudden, it will be like killing the chicken to get the eggs.

Even, eggs may not be able to be retrieved.

After leaving Secretary Gao's office, Fat Aunt and Aunt Wang went straight to Zhang Junping's furniture store in Wangfujing.

The result is of course a flutter.

The two found out Zhang Junping's whereabouts, and took a bus to Liulichang.

At this time, Zhang Junping was playing with ancient Ming and Qing furniture.

This is a Ming Dynasty elm cabinet with four corners.

In this Ming Dynasty elm square cabinet, two of the four lower legs are missing, one door is missing, and the back and bottom boards of the cabinet are also missing.

The highest state of repairing ancient furniture is naturally to repair the old ones.

It’s just that there are too many missing parts in this piece of furniture. The back panel is okay, and it can make do with it, and other boards are also fine.

The back panel and the bottom panel should be covered with hemp and hanging ash to prevent moisture in the later stage, so the furniture used in the Ming and Qing Dynasties generally used relatively poor materials for these two parts.

The ancients were still very flexible. They knew that there was powder on the face, and the exposed parts were made of good materials, which reflected the value of the furniture. The texture of the wood was beautiful.

This piece of furniture is just a piece of furniture that Zhang Junping brought over at random. Whether it needs to be repaired or not depends on whether it can be matched with a suitable cabinet door.

This is the key. If it doesn't fit the cabinet door, it can only be dismantled and used as a material.

After Zhang Junping checked and determined the maintenance plan, he began to rummage in the pile of wood.

Some ancient furniture from the Ming and Qing Dynasties had just been shipped in, and the broken pieces of furniture that had fallen apart were piled up together, making it very troublesome to search for them.

Zhang Junping could only search slowly.

I sighed secretly in my heart, there was still not enough manpower, otherwise I would definitely sort all these broken furniture parts.

Classify and store according to the material and type of parts.

That way, when you need to find old materials, you can find them easily.

After searching for a long time, I couldn't find the right parts or suitable materials.

Zhang Junping simply gave up and continued to rummage, sat on the pile of wood, picked up a piece of wood and played with it in his hand.

This is an old piece of small-leaf red sandalwood, the material is not big, only the size of two palms, with water ripples and fish scales, and densely packed gold stars on it, this is definitely a piece of top-quality material, the top-quality material for making bracelets.
