jade carver

Cheng Ye had lived with Lao Xia for a few days when news came from the south.Lao Xia had a younger brother named Yun, and when their master left, they all dispersed, so Junior Brother Yun took his whole family to the south to find a way out.Every year, Lao Xia would find time to visit some of his fellow apprentices, and if they had any news, they would also like to talk to Lao Xia.

The news came this time very suddenly, but it also made Lao Xia a little excited.

Junior Brother Yun wrote in a letter saying that this year there will be a title related to jade carving, which is different from previous years. This is not just a false name. According to insiders, it has been awarded, and the country has a certain reward policy.

In the jade carving business, the reputation in the past was given by non-governmental organizations. If the reputation is big, the price of jade carvings produced in the future will also rise.This is the first time that the country has issued a certificate, which can be regarded as a title of a technical position, an officially recognized identity.The most important thing is the reward policy. I heard that not only the whole factory will be honored in the review, but also the disciples of the school can enter the inheritance class of a famous university, specializing in jade carving.

Lao Xia was tempted by the latter one. He knew that Cheng Ye studied hard because he wanted to go to university, and he hoped that Cheng Ye would devote himself to making jade carvings.It would be great if Cheng Ye could attend this inheritance class.Thinking about this, Lao Xia squinted his eyes happily, and looking at Cheng Ye was even more satisfied.

Lao Xia went to find Junior Brother Yun himself, and he decided that even if he risked his life, he must get this name back!

Xiping is a small town, but seventy-eight out of ten of the country's jade carvings are produced here.It is close to the mine source, and there is no shortage of people who have made jade carvings for generations, so it can be regarded as an important town of jade carvings.The whole town is located in a remote place, without the hustle and bustle of the city, but it has the elegance of a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

In previous years, Junior Brother Yun would come to pick up Lao Xia at the station, but this time when Lao Xia came suddenly, Junior Brother Yun was caught off guard and did not rush over.Lao Xia got off the train and transferred to the car. It was a little late when he arrived at the outskirts of the town. It was dark and there was no car. He waited for a long time before he saw a fellow villager passing by.Old man Xia climbed onto the tricycle of the fellow's family, and drove all the way to the door of Junior Brother Yun's house with black smoke rising from his buttocks.

Junior Brother Yun was teaching a few apprentices how to do their work with his hands. His hands were full of water and stone powder, and he hurriedly washed his hands to pick up Lao Xia. "Senior brother, why don't you tell me in advance when you come, so that I can pick you up at the station."

Lao Xia waved his hand and handed him the things he brought, "It's okay, I'm not in my [-]s and [-]s, so I don't need to pick it up. This is a special product brought to Xiao Fei and the others. Didn't he say he wanted to eat almond halva last time?" ? I brought some better this time.”

The Xiao Fei in Lao Xiakou is Junior Brother Yun's only son, named Yun Yifei, and he is also a child who learns jade carving from Junior Brother Yun, and he is a good hand.Junior Brother Yun took the things and laughed, "It's hard for you to miss that kid. I'll ask him to come and thank Senior Brother when he gets back from school."

Lao Xia sighed, "Succeed, I haven't seen him for a long time. Xiaofei is also in high school, isn't he busy studying?"

Junior Brother Yun helped Lao Xia to sit in the room all the way, and answered the words, "I'm going to be promoted to a third grade soon, this child's study is quite reassuring for us, but when he is busy with homework, this jade carving skill will inevitably fall..."

This sentence is said in the old Xia Xin's nest, isn't his precious apprentice Cheng Ye also like this!There are only 24 hours in a day, and this child only has one head and two hands, so we can't let him spin around, right?Lao Xia sighed, he had a good relationship with his senior brothers, and he didn't try to cheat with Junior Brother Yun, so he just made it clear.

"I'm not going to hide it from you. Didn't I take in a young apprentice a few years ago? Now that I've been teaching him for seven or eight years, he has some kung fu in his hands. Now he's learning crafts from me while studying in high school, and he only sleeps a few times a night. Hours, I feel very distressed when I look at it... But it's just like this, I can't be too busy."

Junior Brother Yun also had a bit of bitterness on his face, "Isn't that right, my family's Yi Fei is also busy at both ends. That child is proud and arrogant, and I won't let him rest. How can he bear it if he stays up late every day."

Lao Xia thought for a while, and then began to persuade him, "I think the thing you told me about the title evaluation last time is a bit interesting. I think the inheritance class seems to be pretty good. Don't say whether the teachers in the school are good or not. Alright, as long as the child concentrates on doing this, let's help out later, will there be any success?"

Junior Brother Yun nodded, "Brother, that's why I informed you. I think this seems to be a matter of national comment, but to put it bluntly, there are only a few companies that can get the edge. Our group The Hu family, the Gu family, the Jin family... I heard that the evaluation will be done three times, and [-] people will be selected from the [-] people in the primary election, and there will be five or six places in the end."

Lao Xia calculated with his fingers, there are actually not many left in the older generation who are still in this industry, and the younger generation is still immature and cannot support the table.Although there are only five or six people, if you really count them, there is still a chance for them.

"Those guys, the Hu family has now turned to the jade business, and the details of the other companies are also clear. If I say that we will definitely get one in the evaluation. I see that it is written in the reward column that one person can recommend more than one." A disciple, as long as they belong to the same sect." Junior Brother Yun hesitated for a while, and frowned slightly. "As long as my junior brother doesn't get in the way..."

Lao Xia snorted coldly, his face trembling, "What kind of stumbling block can he get into? It doesn't mean that the whole world has to listen to him!"

Junior Brother Yun is thoughtful and thinks more than Lao Xia, "Brother, I remember that he still has a few finished products from the master and us in his hand, and those were also at the state banquet back then... If he really rips off his face, put those Take it out and let the master in his factory recognize it, we have no chance of winning."

What their seniors and brothers admire most is their own master. The old man was really regarded as Taishan Beidou in the world of jade carving. At the time when he was the most prosperous, the Hu family had to watch their faces when they stamped their feet.It's a pity that the old man left early, and the only son left behind couldn't live up to his expectations, and he tossed the family business into what it is now.The younger brother went abroad for a few years, and when he came back, he made the old factory look like a foreign country. The old people in the original jade factory also left almost the same. Among them, only the eldest brother Xu still insisted on staying there.

Listening to him, Lao Xia inevitably thought of those past events. He felt unhappy, and his face was a little ugly, "He dares! If I do such a thing that shames the master, I will go all out and not get this title. Let him kneel in front of the master's spiritual seat for three days!"

Seeing that his senior brother was still so stubborn, Junior Brother Yun smiled. He patted Lao Xia on the shoulder to let him relax, "Don't be angry, Senior Brother, I'm just guessing. Although Junior Brother is a bit messy, but Still have respect for the master."

Lao Xia's complexion has not yet recovered, he was the strongest against the junior brother back then, and he was also the one who ignored the junior brother's work the most.He knew that his master had ruined all his efforts in this person's hands, but he couldn't blame him, it was really suffocating and uncomfortable.

Lao Xia lived with Junior Brother Yun for a few days and devoted himself to preparing for this matter.Lao Xia's eyesight has not been very good these years, and he has produced few jade carvings, but there are gains and losses. After his eyesight is bad, his mood has improved a lot.Jade carving is not about how realistic or similar you are, but about a charm.

Lao Xia has never stopped carving jade pieces these years, and his skills are more mature than before.He has junior brother Yun as his right and left hand, and the junior brother is dedicated to doing things, determined to win the top spot and send the children to colleges for further studies.

Ten days later, Junior Brother Yun received a package, which was as heavy as if it had been stuffed with stones.Open it and see, it is indeed a big stone - it is the best Hetian jade blue and white seed material.

The signature on the parcel box was only Zhang San, and the place where he came from was also strange.Junior Brother Yun laughed as soon as he saw it, "Senior Brother, I guess it's Senior Brother Xu! He's the best at sneaky things like this, haha, we don't need good stones this time! He wouldn't have put little Junior Brother in the jade warehouse Have you turned it over? Such a big piece is enough to make a jade chain aromatherapy burner!"

Lao Xia looked carefully at the jade material with a flashlight, and was also very satisfied with this big guy, "Your brother Xu has finally done something! Come on, let's start work! Just make the jade chain, let's have a extravagance today!" Lao Xia waved his hands with pride.
