City Start Striving for Becoming a Rich Man

Chapter 617

While Ni Shixiao was sitting in the dining room for breakfast, Wu Liuyi, who had not shown up for a long time, walked in from the outside with a face full of spring breeze.

“Yeah, who is this? Did you go to the wrong place?”

Wu Liuyi smiled honestly, then scratched the back of his head, and said, “Well, I stayed outside for a few more days. I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”

“Don’t apologize, your life matters are important, but ah, you have not been on duty for half a month, and your salary will still be deducted.” Ni Shixiao teased.

“Don’t, don’t, I’m going to see her parents soon, the money is really nervous!” Wu Liuyi became anxious when he heard this, and explained quickly.

“You have said this twice. Are you really short of money?” Ni Shixiao asked, “No, I didn’t treat you badly, right?”

“Um… Um, I used my original money to build roads in Shang Rongshu and Xia Rongshu Villages, and built a nursing home; the rest was used to make up for a few poor comrades in arms. Almost spent!”

“Okay, explain this to you. The salary is not deducted. The money you give to the village is your own business. I don’t care. But if you help your comrades in arms, I will reimburse you!”

“Then I’m ashamed to get it, and the money is really nervous.” Wu Liuyi said, “Why didn’t you see Shi Jin?”

“I asked him to do errands. I shouldn’t be able to come back today.”

“Oh, I’ll go back to the room to take a shower and change clothes.”

Ni Shixiao glanced at Wu Liuyi. You can see patches of cyan marks on the T-shirt. If you look closely, you can see that the clothes and trousers are still pointed with grass.

“Wu Liuyi, quite good at playing?”

“what’s happenin?”

“You rolled on the grass last night?”

Wu Liuyi looked down at his clothes and realized what went wrong.

“Last night, the two of us watched the stars for one night, and the clothes were glued to each other.” Wu Liuyi quickly explained.

“Okay, okay, don’t explain, the explanation is to cover up. What’s so embarrassing about this, you will be wild, and you will be fighting!”

Wu Liuyi smiled honestly again, opening his mouth, and the smile was quite sweet.

············

“Go take a shower and change clothes, and accompany me out later.”

Ni Shixiao had finished his breakfast, rinsed his mouth with the mouthwash, and then said to Wu Liuyi.

“Okay!”

Today, Ni Shixiao is going to see a big stone carving master. It was introduced by Mr. Mu Zixuan, an old man named Lu Xingzhi, who is said to be a descendant of Lu Zigang.

Good at jade carving, but nuclear carving and stone carving are also quite accomplished!

Ni Shixiao also thought about carving a female lion and pairing it with that male lion; by the way, he could also learn jade carving and nuclear carving with Mr. Lu.

Mr. Lu lives in a courtyard house. It is well maintained, simple and not obsolete. It is estimated that it will be renovated every year.

Under the guidance of the servant, he walked into the yard. Father Lu and Father Mu were sitting in the yard drinking tea.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“Shixiao, you are here, come and have tea!”

“Elder Lu and Elder Mu, good two.”

“Xiao Ni, come, show me your hand.” Old man Lu said to Ni Shixiao.

Ni Shixiao stretched out his hand in front of Mr. Lu, Lu Xingzhi took Ni Shixiao’s hand, turned it over, and pressed his fingers and the flesh on his palm.

After watching one, watch another one!

“The fingers are slender, vigorous and powerful; this hand is a good hand for learning carving. Have you learned Chinese painting?”

“I have learned! I think my level is not bad.”

“|Square sculpture is not the same as Western sculpture. It doesn’t pay attention to three-dimensional composition, but if you want to learn more deeply, you still have to learn three-dimensional structure if you go far.”

“I have studied human anatomy, physiology, and bones. I am also good at three-dimensional composition. Father Lu, in fact, what I’m worse off is my knowledge of knife skills. I have learned all the other theoretical parts.”

“Learning and mastering are not the same thing!”

“Old Lu, Shixiao said that he has learned, and he must be proficient. Don’t you know, he is so enchanting. Learning|Western is how to learn as soon as he learns. Otherwise, his business is so busy, how can he have time? Slowly learn some elegance.”

“Okay, since Zixuan, you said so, let me learn a few days and see!”

·········

a week later.

“Shixiao, really don’t be my closed disciple and inherit my mantle?”

Within a week, Ni Shixiao had completely hollowed out Lu Xingzhi’s knife skills and research on carving.

Lu Xingzhi now wants Ni Shixiao to be his disciple, instead of just coming to study, not even a named disciple.

“Master Lu, as you know, I’m unlikely to take carving as my main business, I’m just for hobbies.”

Lu Xingzhi said, “I didn’t want you to be a carver. I just asked you to be my apprentice. You can just take some time to continue studying.”

“In the future, when you meet someone with talent, you will pass on my mantle…”

Lu Xingzhi is actually very aware of Ni Shixiao’s identity. It is impossible to be a sculptor, even a sculptor. But he couldn’t bear Ni Shixiao’s talent. In just one week, he surpassed the kind of people who had been in elementary school for 30 years.

To put it in one sentence: It’s really better than people, it’s maddening!

As long as Ni Shixiao can continue to spend time studying the carvings of the Lu family, Zigang brand will have a chance to be re-established in modern times!

“Lord Lu, if you think this will work, I won’t enter the wall. When I meet the right one, I will pass on your mantle. Don’t worry, I will find a genius.”

Master and apprentice, master and apprentice, masters are not so easy to recognize. There is an old saying that one day as a teacher and a lifelong father. Ni Shixiao didn’t want to recognize himself as a dad!

Just learning to sculpt this blessing is not worth his great effort!

Lu Xingzhi said regretfully, “Let’s do it, I, Lu Xingzhi, didn’t take the life of a good apprentice!”

Lu Xingzhi, his level is advanced, but the few apprentices he recruited are all in the posture of middle-aged people, although they are relatively filial and good in character.

But no one can fully inherit his mantle and carry forward the Zigang brand.

“Master Lu, I will visit you often.”

Ni Shixiao sat with Mr. Lu for a while, and then left the house. When he left, Ni Shixiao left Mr. Lu with a few pieces of the best Hetian jade.

After Ni Shixiao had walked for a long time, Old Man Lu found Hetian Yu on the chair. He picked it up and looked at the light, then smiled and shook his head.

“This world’s filial piety! Really interested! Such a good jade, you have to figure out what to carve.”

························

As soon as Ni Shixiao arrived at Red Star Lane, he saw Cheng Feng standing outside Shen Ling’s courtyard.

Feelings don’t give up!

“Stop standing, do you want to go in and sit?” Ni Shixiao walked up to Cheng Feng and said.

“No, let’s find a place outside!”

“Let’s go, there is a small cafe on the corner of the street.”

At the cafe on the corner, Ni Shixiao and Cheng Feng sat opposite each other, and Cheng Feng was absent-mindedly stirring coffee with a spoon.

“Don’t waste time, just talk about it.”

Cheng Feng lit a cigarette and took a hard sip, feeling a little nervous, even the butt was bitten by him. .
