After loading the chain saw into the car, I quickly turned around and explained that the girl brushing her teeth in front of me was Xia Miqi.
"I told Sister Xia that I'm just borrowing this thing from your house. Your mother isn't in the store?"
The girl's cheeks bulged, she spat out some mouthwash, looked at me and said, "Wait a minute, I'll ask my mother."
She dialed the number from the landline in the store. I walked in and heard Sister Xia's voice coming from the other end of the phone.
"Well, Xiaoqi, I understand. Let the young man take the things away."
Xia Miqi put down the phone. She looked me up and down and said suspiciously, "Do you have a phone number? Leave your number so I won't be found."
I hadn't bought a mobile phone yet, so I smiled and told her Dou Sprout Zai's number.
At around 10 o'clock in the evening, we pulled the chain saw back to Shapotou, paid the driver the head, and asked him to help carry it to the yard.
"Thank you, boss. I'll go then. I'm calling for someone who needs a car."
After we agreed, the driver happily took the money and drove away.
After tinkering with the chain saw for a few minutes, Douyazai pulled the power strip out of the house and plugged it in.
Dou Sprout pressed the start button, but there was no roar as expected, and the thing didn't respond.
Isn't it really bad if it has been left for too long? I walked over and took a closer look.
Fortunately, I think it's just that the oil tank of the chain saw is out of oil, so the machine should be fine.
I got oil on my head and started the fire five or six times in a row. I heard a clicking sound followed by a boom, and the chain saw started.
I opened the protective cover and took a look. The cutting disc was completely worn and rotated normally.
There were no outsiders in the courtyard at this time, so we wouldn't be too worried about being discovered when we discussed it.
The chain saw can be used, but the biggest problem right now is where to cut. The rough stone is more than 30 centimeters high and 20 centimeters wide. We are not sure where to cut it.
The characteristic of Alxa agate rough stone is that the skin of the stone is thin and brittle. If a rough stone of this size is cut little by little with a small grinding wheel, it will definitely chip. The best way to deal with it is to cut it with an oil saw.
After taking out the rough stone and studying it for a long time, Douyazai and I had different opinions. He thought it should be cut in half with a chain saw, and he also said that the best position for agate is in the middle.
I don't agree with what Dou Yazai said about cutting it in half. If you do that, the original piece of material will become incomplete. If we plan to make a sculpture, the subject matter will be affected.
Then I proposed a compromise solution, and I agreed after thinking about it.
We plan to cut off a piece of the top of the original stone. This will not waste materials and can clearly see the internal structure. The cut off piece can also be used as a brand pendant or other gadgets.
"Is it stuck?" Dou Sprout asked nervously, pressing his hand on the green button.
I shook the rough stone, nodded and said no problem, let's get started.
After that, I took one last look at the stone and put the chainsaw cover on it.
Listening to the roar of the machine cutting, Xiaoxuan said nervously: "Shouldn't we burn incense sticks or something? Pray for success."
"Yes, I forgot. I bought the things the day before yesterday. Yazai, please take them out and light them up," Tou said with a smile.
Baotou actually bought two bundles of incense for this stone, just for the sake of getting rich smoothly.
There was no incense burner, so Dou Sprout lit the incense and bowed with his hand, saying that the God of Wealth would bless him that everything would go well.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the machine.
Time passed by very long. You can see what the inside of the raw blood agate stone looks like right away.
