Fifteen days later, the fourth master brought two sets of mahjong into the palace.
One is a jade carving and the other is an oak carving.
The material for jade carving is expensive, the jade is very gorgeous and white, and the carving is naturally good, but it seems ordinary.
Looking at the oak carvings again, the fourth master poured it on the table. Yu Wenhao picked one up and looked at it, and was shocked.
Where are the mahjong tiles here?
This is art.
On the four sides of the mahjong, a red dragon is flying. It is a small dragon, but every dragon scale is clearly visible, and the dragon's whiskers are lifelike.
What's even more surprising is that all the mahjong dragons are exactly the same, no bigger, no smaller, no longer beards, no shorter scales, to use what Lao Yuan often says, it's like copy and paste.
Same.
However, these are all hand-carved, and it only took half a month to carve. Such a delicate work cannot be done for half a year?
Master Xu's craftsmanship is not only exquisite, but also amazing. The craftsmanship and speed have reached their peak.
The fourth master was very depressed. This was originally his mahjong, but because he mentioned the emperor, Master Xu carved a dragon. After carving the dragon, can he still have this mahjong?
Of course it can only be turned in.
Now the material cost and labor cost are all paid by him, but the things are not his.
After Yu Wenhao was amazed, he noticed the fourth master's depression and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be stingy. Although this mahjong is kept in the palace, it will definitely be yours when we play."
"Stop irritating me with your words. I can't stand irritation."
Fourth Master hummed.
Yu Wenhao said with a smile: "Then you go back and ask her to carve another one for you, all with snow wolves... But snow wolves are not easy to carve. After all, the dragon is one piece and can be coiled on all sides. How can a snow wolf be coiled on all sides?
Woolen cloth?
Separate it into four pieces?”
These words were very hurtful and insulting. The fourth master shook his sleeves and left the palace angrily.
"You don't want your jade mahjong anymore?"
"don't want!"
The Fourth Master left without looking back.
Yu Wenhao shrugged, he got two pairs of mahjong in vain.
After cleaning it up, he took it back to show off to his wife. Yuan Qingling was also shocked by Master Xu's craftsmanship and sighed: "It is not an exaggeration to describe her as a great master. It is Chitong's blessing to be able to learn skills from her.
"
"You are right, she is a role model for women, Lao Yuan, shouldn't the weekly give her a cover?"
"Well, there have been stories about her, but I definitely think she deserves a cover story."
Yuan Qingling nodded and said.
Yu Wenhao then began to indulge in playing mahjong.
He himself was half a bucket of water. He was complacent and did not improve his skills, and was quickly overtaken.
For several nights in a row, I lost everything, twenty bucks, and felt as if I had been ripped off a piece of flesh.
While looking at the empty box, he muttered, "It's just for fun, so why do you want to play with money?"
Playing with money is called gambling, right?
One by one, the court officials gathered together to gamble without paying attention to the impact. Don't be fooled. It's gone. You owe it to me. I've lost all my 20 coins."
"Isn't this what you decided?
Are you cheating?"
The first assistant calmly pursued the demand, "It's okay to owe money, but I already paid three debts last night and said I would pay it off today. Today, you said you would give me money before you even started playing. It's not a good idea.
, look, I didn’t pay the debt last night, and I owe it again today.”
"Let's make an IOU."
Fourth Master frowned, "Don't waste time, start quickly."
"If you don't pay the IOU, I will cancel it after I ascend the throne."
Yu Wenhao pushed the mahjong, "Just remember it orally. Anyway, I remember it. I'll tell you. You also remember that I owe Fourth Master four dice, I owe Lao Leng five dice, and Hongye owes me one dice."
Hong Ye made cards with both hands and said coldly: "What you owe is what you owe, why are you talking so loudly?
Aren’t you afraid that the whole capital won’t hear it?”
Yes, Hong Ye is also a loser. He is extremely talented in everything he does, but he is very good at playing mahjong.
Yu Wenhao said bitterly: "I heard it when I heard it. I am willing to admit defeat. I owe so much and I am not angry."
"Let's talk about it first. Winning or losing is just a game. Anyone who wants to overturn the table will not be allowed to play with him in the future."
Fourth Master warned them.
"How is it possible to flip the table?"
Yu Wenhao wiped the sweat from his forehead. Well, there is hope in this round. He should be more cautious.
"Thirty thousand!"
I hit a piece, and now I hear the three-fly call from the 147 barrel, and there are still two bars, which makes me excited.
"Thirty thousand dollars!"
The first assistant slowly pushed out three thirty thousand cards, picked up the ones played by Lao Wu and lined them up. He stretched out his hand to touch the end of the cards and slapped them on the table without waiting for his finger to open the cards.
The one who cheats gets it all covered.”
Lao Wu was so angry that he ascended to heaven and looked on unwillingly, "Are you trying to make peace?
Let me see."
"Watch it slowly and pay after you finish it."
The chief assistant said with a smile.
The fourth master saw Yu Wenhao looking like he wanted to overturn the table, and reminded him: "If the table is overturned, the general will be dismissed."
Yu Wenhao suppressed his anger and withdrew his glaring eyes, "It's all inclusive, six hundred coppers, right?
Lao Leng, please give me four hundred, and I will owe you one more."
It’s true, at the beginning, I was so proud that I had horse hoof disease, but now I’m so depressed.
