After getting the tickets for the Chicago Knife Show, Chu Yan walked into the bathroom. While taking a bath, he made a detailed plan for what he needed to do recently, until he finally lay down on the big bed in the bedroom refreshed.
He fell into a contented sleep on the bed.
In the early morning of the next day, Chu Yan arrived at the antique city as soon as possible. The first thing he planned when he took a shower yesterday was to get the carving order first, and then go to Murong Wanruo's father to collect debts, and then go back to the antique city.
Accompany Linghulan to Beidu City to participate in some underwear show and be a guest.
During that period, he had three things to do. First, go to Gude Art School to meet Yun Siwu. Although there was no need for direct contact, a side understanding was necessary. This was Chu Yan's understanding of Yun Siwu.
His dead brother's promise.
Second, he wanted to take a look at Xiao Zihan, this talented surgeon. Although her achievements in the medical field were brilliant, she was really not very good at being a human being. He wanted to know how she was doing recently.
The third thing is to have a chat with Xiao Zijing by the way. Because of what Murong Wanruo said before, Xiao Zijing is likely to have important clues to the source of the angel's dream.
After completing these things, Chu Yan will completely retreat, cut off any contact with the outside world, and concentrate on completing the works he is going to participate in the Chicago Knife Show in the studio!
With a clear idea in his mind, what Chu Yan needs to do is to complete it step by step, and the first thing is naturally to get the order of the customer with unknown origin first, and as for the other things, we will talk about it later.
Wuwu Carving, on the second floor, Chu Yan and Su Yinan were standing in the carving room. In Chu Yan's hand, he held a long and narrow diamond-shaped carving knife. This was specially obtained by Chu Yan through some special channels.
, and also gave this knife a name, called Diamond Blade!
"Get ready to start, please watch carefully, don't ask, and stay quiet." In the sculpture room, Chu Yan had already held the long and narrow stone in his hand, and the water mill was also ready. Su Yinan nodded to the side and placed the guard.
He put on the eyepiece and took out his mobile phone at the same time, preparing to film the process of making Chu Yan.
Polishing is a very boring thing, but this boring process also contains a very high technical content. The long and narrow stone gradually loses its rough surface under the polishing of water and turns into a shape like a fish body.
After Su Yinan finished filming the entire polishing process on her phone, she stopped, not because her phone was out of battery, but because she had no time to take pictures. She couldn't be distracted by Chu Yan's engraving process, and her eyes were watery.
His big eyes were fixed on Chu Yan’s hands!
Holding the stone in the left hand and the knife in the right hand, the rhombus blade is sharp enough to break the stone. The only thing that needs attention is to ensure the density of the h2o9-s softening liquid sprayed and do not let the frequency of corrosion and softening exceed the speed of carving by the blade.
, otherwise it will affect the perfection of this work.
Slow! Very slowly, the joints in Chu Yan's hands turned slightly white. This is because in addition to maintaining the strength and lines of the blade, a lot of energy is also spent to control the marks on the surface of the stone. Although it still needs to be done after the initial carving is completed.
The details behind it are carefully polished, but Chu Yan likes to make things simple, but behind these simplicity, there is a very high price to pay.
Four hours passed by in an instant. When the diamond blade in Chu Yan's hand disappeared, Su Yinan found that she had taken a long breath as if she had not breathed for a long time, her chest heaving slightly, her eyes
But he can no longer leave the stone dagger that has been carved!
The dark green stone dagger lay quietly on the sculpture table. Although the carving traces of hard lines were obvious, it was not ugly at all. Excited, Su Yinan pulled over the focusing magnifying glass and took the stone dagger.
He gently held it in his hand and placed it directly under the magnifying glass, observing carefully. The most famous dagger in the Qiu period was less than half a foot long enough to fit into the belly of any fish served on the table." Su Yinan looked at it.
Looking at the short dagger under the magnifying glass, a vague fragment suddenly flashed through my mind. It was a picture I saw in a cultural relic album. The picture showed a fish intestine dagger unearthed three years ago.
The shape, size and even the size of the Autumn Period are mostly taken from the conversion system of the Zhou Dynasty. 1 zhang = 10 feet, 1 feet = 10 inches, 1 inch = 10 minutes, 1 feet = 19.9 centimeters. According to historical records, the fish intestine dagger is less than half
Ruler, calculated as one inch is 1.99 centimeters, which is 9.95 centimeters!" Chu Yan himself is a top knife-making master, and he has naturally heard about the famous fish intestine dagger in history. Before, Chu Yan looked at the drawings and felt
This dagger was a bit strange and seemed familiar. Because it was a drawing of a frame structure, he couldn't tell it for a while. Now that the semi-finished product appeared, he realized that this seemed to be similar to the legendary fish intestine dagger!
"Looking at that man's weird look, he couldn't be a cultural relics dealer? No wonder he's so mysterious!" Su Yinan's guess made Chu Yan agree in his heart. "Who cares, whether he is a cultural relics dealer or not has nothing to do with us.
, Okay, I have to go out for a while, I’ll leave this place to you.”
Su Yinan nodded and looked at Chu Yan who had already changed into casual clothes. He opened his mouth but said nothing. He just watched Chu Yan open the door of the sculpture room. "The work is not finished yet. I will leave it to you to polish it carefully."
I believe you can handle it, right?" After Chu Yan said this, he reached into the butt pocket of his jeans, took out a cigarette, lit it, held it in his mouth, turned around and walked downstairs.
"I can do it!" Although Su Yinan's thoughts were mostly on the stone dagger, Chu Yan's lit cigarette made her nose slightly hunch, and the confusion in her eyes reappeared.
Su Yinan looked at the back of the figure who had walked out of the sculpture room. The dimples around her mouth appeared sweetly. After a moment, her attention returned to the stone dagger again.
Chu Yan left the sculpture room and went downstairs. He took out a can of beer from the refrigerator on the side, sat on the sofa in the reception area, turned on the music, and drank.
While drinking beer, the figure of that person appeared in Chu Yan's mind again. The almost iconic movements and rhythm made Chu Yan have to wonder what made those guys come here. Chu Yan knew very well that that group of people
He has always been a guy who can't afford to go early without profit, so he must have a clear purpose in coming here.
For a while, Chu Yan didn't even think about what was going on, so he simply forgot about him for the time being. He had more important things to do, so as long as he didn't take the initiative to come looking for trouble, he would ignore him.
He's fine.
"Su Yinan, I'm going out to eat. I'll bring you back whatever you want to eat." Chu Yan, the boss, is very humane. He can't starve his employees when he eats.
"A seven-shrimp burger, a cup of mashed potatoes, a cup of chicken popcorn, and a cup of coffee." Su Yinan had been waiting for Chu Yan's words for a long time, and spoke her lunch without even thinking about it. She looked at Chu Yan.
On Yan's face with a faint smile, the dimples on Su Yinan's mouth appeared slightly.
About an hour later, Chu Yan's figure returned to Wuwu Sculpture. Downstairs, Fan Xianghan and Wang Lan were getting ready to get off work to eat. Su Yinan was still working in the sculpture room upstairs. She had just finished three-point polishing.
On one of the sculpture tables, there are several books on fine polishing, and Su Yinan's laptop is also placed. When the computer opens, there is a video tutorial on fine polishing, and there is also a web page.
is minimized below the window.
Obviously, this was Su Yinan's first time doing fine polishing of stone sculptures, and she had to look up a lot of information. Although she had clearly memorized the polishing techniques, she was always a little nervous about the actual operation.
All you need to polish a stone dagger is some soft material work, so you don't have to worry about making big mistakes.
"Brother Chu, are you back?" Seeing Chu Yan coming back, Su Yinan's nervous heart suddenly relaxed for some reason, and the movements of her hands became smooth and fast. Compared with before, they were completely different.
