My Homestay connects to another world

"You go to the wood factory with me tomorrow, there is no good wood at home." Grandpa Xie continued to eat vegetables after speaking.

"Okay, then let's get up early tomorrow." Xie Cheng replied very quickly, but beads of sweat were leaking from his forehead nervously, and said in his heart: "It's dangerous!"

Grandpa Xie felt that he was good at woodcarving skills, but he didn't have any heirs, and the way he looked at his grandson was not right.

Putting down the chopsticks after eating, Grandpa Xie Da Ma Jindao sat in the living room, staring at the grandson who was washing dishes in the kitchen, feeling all sorts of upset, "Obviously I said when I was young that I wanted to learn woodcarving from myself, but when I grow up, I don't like it." Not to mention it."

After washing the dishes, Xie Cheng was taken aback by Grandpa's eyes just as he walked out of the kitchen: "Grandpa, why are you sitting here? Is there anything else?"

"What's wrong with me just sitting?" The old man's words were full of sex.

But Xie Cheng didn't know where he had offended his grandfather?

I could only watch my grandpa enter the house aggressively, close the door vigorously, and make a loud noise.

Before going to bed, he was still thinking about why grandpa's mind is so difficult to guess?

Early the next morning, Xie Cheng drove his tricycle with his grandpa to the wood factory in the city. Grandpa Xie was wrapped in the sheepskin coat that Xie Cheng had given him to keep out the wind.

Although he was still embarrassed to tell Xie Cheng to learn woodcarving from him, he began to tell Xie Cheng something about wood.

"Our Tianhe City is a well-known large timber market in China, and there are many expensive materials in the factory area to the west." When Mr. Xie was young, he relied on his good woodworking skills to support his son, who is Xie Cheng's father, Xie Yun.

He is very clear about the doorway in the woodcarving industry.

"This time, let's find some root materials and tumors to make some small woodcarvings. We need to go to the inner circle. Although the place there is small and there is no whole material, the corner wool is cheap, and we pay by the piece. The big ones 100, and the small one is 10 yuan. When I was young, I was lucky and found a 20 cm wide wild six-daozi, which was worth a lot at that time, and I paid your dad’s three-year high school tuition directly.” Said that when he was young Grandpa Xie's excited face glowed red.

"Such a thick Liudaozi, will it take hundreds of years?" Xie Cheng also became a little interested.

"Fart, those kinds of plants will grow for thousands of years, and they are all wild. You can't find them now. You can only look at the good wood in the mountains. They are all national protected plants."

Those places are leftovers imported from big factories, some old woods are rotten, and some just look old on the surface and can be treasured after a little treatment.Among them, buying wood in this kind of place is similar to gambling on stones, but the price of wood itself is not as high as the price of jade.

If you know that the old wild materials have very good color and pattern, it is not a problem to make a small profit of hundreds of thousands.

As Grandpa Xie said, Liudaozi, whose scientific name is Jianglongmu, is a precious wood and has the effect of relieving pain and calming the nerves. It grows very slowly, so the aniseed material is expensive.However, the ordinary Liudaozi for making bracelets does not need to be thick, and it can grow in more than ten years. It is not uncommon in the market, and the price is not too expensive.

The depths of Tianhe Mountain have been classified as a nature reserve, but there are also large forest farms on the periphery, where many precious woods are planted due to the geographical environment.

After arriving at the place, Xie Cheng first found a place to stop the tricycle.

Going further inside, only cars with a factory pass can enter.

Grandpa Xie took Xie Cheng through the twists and turns, and finally stopped in front of a warehouse-like factory building. The gate was three or four meters high, but the entrance and exit were through a small one-meter-wide door on the side.

The small door was ajar, and through the crack of the door, one could see the leftover materials in the yard piled up into a hill, and several people were picking wood on it.

"Let's go and look for it quickly. I saw that the old man is not a professor of sculpture at an art school. I heard that he comes here every few months and takes a lot of good materials every time." Although the old man is very I haven't been out of the mountain for a long time, but the contact information of those old friends are still in the mobile phone.

This time I came out to choose wood, and I also learned about the current market.

After saying hello to the old man at the door, Mr. Xie picked up two large woven bags from his side, stuffed one for Xie Cheng, and went in to pick wood by himself.

A new batch has just arrived here a few days ago, so he has to hurry up, lest all the good things be picked up.

Xie Cheng saw that his grandfather was having fun by himself, so he took the cloth bag and searched casually.

He only learned how to identify wood with his grandfather when he was a child, but he really doesn't understand the pattern and texture of wood.

But flipping through it, Xie Cheng suddenly figured out why grandpa had been sulking all this time.

"You want me to learn woodcarving from him, but you're too embarrassed to speak up, so you're sulking, right?"

Next, Xie Cheng's original casual actions became serious. Grandpa didn't speak but he could act directly. Grandpa would definitely not be able to help correcting his own problems when the finished product was produced.

There are a lot of leftovers here, but the good ones have been picked away long ago. Xie Cheng wanted to find a tree root to make a stool.As a result, he searched around the factory building in the courtyard, and found small pieces of golden wood, thuja, and even palm-width Liudaozi, but he didn't find any suitable ones.

In the end, I could only choose a small log, and I was going to try to make some bowls, chopsticks and spoons.

When checking out, the old man at the door saw Xie Chengxuan's wood, smiled and said to Grandpa Xie, "Thank you, your grandson has a good eye, it's a good material."

Xie Cheng couldn't understand whether the old man was praising himself or the wood he chose.But he saw his grandpa smiling happily, so he regarded it as the former one.

The old man gave them two carts to help carry the wood up, and then said: "In half a month, the gold wire and mahogany will be shipped from the south, if you are interested, come and pick them."

The old man is not young but has great strength. When he speaks, his voice is deep and convincing.

After returning home, Grandpa Xie took the wood he chose into the carpentry room, and when he came out, he brought out a toolbox for Xie Cheng.

"Carve and play in your own room, don't disturb me." Very arrogantly drove Xie Cheng to the second floor.

"Grandpa, can I ask you for help if there is something I don't know?" Xie Cheng leaned on the railing and asked his grandfather, getting a very reserved nod.

There are still two days before crossing again, Xie Cheng will focus on training and woodcarving after preparing the things to bring this time.

But unexpectedly discovered that after condensing the wood elements on the carving knife, he could easily cut through hard sandalwood.

This discovery allowed him to make five spoons in one day, with a square cut surface carved by a knife, polished and polished, the handle wrapped with hemp rope, and finally coated with wood wax to dry.

Xie Cheng then made several palm-sized wooden bowls, teacups and odd-shaped hooks. He was very satisfied when he finally showed the finished products to his grandfather. Sell ​​as a specialty.

Grandpa Xie looked at the Liuyun Feihe inkstone in his hand, and then at the bowls, chopsticks and spoons in his grandson's hands, and they were still made of sandalwood, which made my heart ache!

"Prodigal son! Take out all the wood in your house. Those who use sandalwood to make bowls and chopsticks. Is your carving knife made of diamond? Your hand is not worn out by you!" He took Xie Cheng's hand and looked at it. , the fingers are fair and there are only one or two scratches, Mr. Xie is relieved this time.

However, he still took away a large piece of good wood from Xie Cheng's house, threw the birch stakes in the backyard to Xie Cheng, and said impatiently: "Take it, those who use hardwood to make bowls and chopsticks won't kill you brat."

"Grandpa, I know I was wrong." Dare to do it next time. These days, Xie Cheng cuts sandalwood just like cutting wood. Looking at the soft wood in his hand, he still feels that hard wood is more comfortable to carve.

Grandpa Xie was disdainful, and finally took a set of bowls and chopsticks made by Xie Cheng and put them on the display rack in his room.

Time flies and two days passed, Xie Cheng packed his backpack and lay on the bed with anticipation this time. He really wanted to wear it to the location close to the Leoro Empire. He really wanted a space bag.

......

Xie Cheng had a good idea in his heart, but when he opened his eyes again, he saw a forest of giant trees glowing in the dark, surrounded by lush vegetation, and the fallen trunks and stones were covered with gray-green moss.

A little bit of snowflakes fell along the little gap above the head, and it felt cool when it fell on the face, but it was quickly melted by the humid environment when it fell on the ground, without leaving any traces.

Looking at the surrounding scenery in surprise, Xie Cheng was astonished that he actually traveled through such a forest.

Such a forest of giant trees hundreds of meters high, in Xie Cheng's mind who had carefully studied the map of the mainland, subconsciously quickly skipped over several other possibilities.

In the end, there was only one place left, and the name was spit out with a sigh: "Warcraft Forest".
