Spirit Stone Hunter

Chapter 141 Ruixue Qingsong

After Huo Shihui was born, there were two babies in the villa.Although there is a difference of three months, as an elder brother, Xiao Jin does not act like an elder brother at all. Every time he and Xiao Hui are put together, he will pull Xiao Hui's ears. In a hurry.

Zhan Jiu didn't feel bad about his son's bad behavior at all, in fact Huo Congting didn't care either.Although Xiao Jin's strength is not small, to Kui Ren, even a baby will not cause any substantial harm.The two fathers would joke around boringly.

"My Xiaojin doesn't seem to like your Xiaohui. This relationship is impossible." Zhan Jiu put down the teacup in his hand, with a relaxed expression on his face.No major incidents have happened recently. Although the Investigation Department had a major case, Zhao Heng directly removed their names from the action team. Who told them that they were just promoted to fathers and accompanied their partners on maternity leave? .Both Wu Tao and Mu Yuan in the studio handled ordinary business very well. Recently, they were in the process of sculpture design, and they didn't know much about design, so they went to look around every day at Xiaotian.As for the vegetables in the planting room and the things growing in the experimental field during the winter on the side of the farm, they are not for sale, so they can eat fresh vegetables grown on their own farm.The infrastructure construction in the mining area is done by Bai Sheng's people, after all, they are all professional.So he is rarely free.It is much more leisurely than Xiaotian's later stage of pregnancy and the one month after giving birth.

Huo Congting was busy.After the Shuimo Jade Mine was taken down, he was the main mine owner, and Qiao Lun was the shareholder.So some signings are done by him.This is almost the same as what Zhan Jiu was busy with before.It is also because of this that with the experience of Zhan Jiu, he has to avoid a lot of wrong roads.I just signed the safety commitment book yesterday, and today is a rare rest day.Otherwise, he wouldn't have time to argue with Zhan Jiu here. "How can it not be done? My daughter-in-law only likes my son to get started."

Zhan Jiu smiled: "You can do this too?"

Huo Congting also laughed: "Why not? These two children grew up together, can it be good? Don't try to discourage my son's enthusiasm."

Zhan Jiu refilled himself with hot tea, and just as he was about to speak, Ma Xiaotian came out from the baby room. "Hey, can you two not be so boring? I heard you two talking nonsense in the room. If you have nothing to do, help to chop meat and make buns. We won't make dinner. It's up to you two."

After receiving the order, the two quickly got up and went to the kitchen.Ying Feng also came out of the room at this time, and said with a smile: "You just let them talk. It's rare to have a rest."

Ma Xiaotian picked up Zhan Jiu's teacup and took a sip: "It seems that we and Sister Wang and Aunt Liu are not tired. Quebec is so strong, what's wrong with cooking a meal?"

Ying Feng is also a little thirsty, but he is not allowed to drink tea now, and pours a cup of cold water. "Why are you so angry these past two days?"

Ma Xiaotian sat down and muttered: "I want to carve that amber with my own hands, but he doesn't agree!"

"Pfft!" Ying Feng was amused: "I've already seen the large sculptures. Master Yuan carved them very well. Besides, how many days have passed, are you still angry?"

"I know. So I didn't insist on it. But he wouldn't let me sculpt anything else. He insisted that I have to rest for another half a year. After half a year of rest, I have to resume my studies. How can I have time to sculpt at that time."

"Anyway, you are taking the exam with the next class, and your grades have always been good."

"I'm not talking about grades. It's about half a year's rest. My palms are itchy."

At this time, Zhan Jiu came out of the kitchen, and seeing his daughter-in-law getting angry when she mentioned this, she wanted to laugh but felt helpless. "Okay, don't complain. It's okay to let you carve, but you have to promise me that you are only allowed to work for two hours a day. You are the one who forgets to eat when you are at the workbench. If you don't promise this, how dare I let it go?" You go to the workbench."

When Ma Xiaotian heard that Zhan Jiu agreed to sculpt himself, he was immediately elated. He stood up and rushed to Zhan Jiu's side, and kissed him on tiptoe. "I promise you! Then I will go to work with you tomorrow. If you ask me to come back, I will come back. I will never delay the construction period!"

Seeing Ma Xiaotian who was coaxed by Zhan Jiu with a single sentence, Ying Feng was a little dumbfounded.Xiaotian, who spends time with the children every day, seems not to have become stable because of becoming a mother and father, but more like a child.

The next day, when Ma Xiaotian arrived at the studio, the first thing he did was go to the warehouse.

They now have a wide variety of waste rock materials of various grades in their warehouses.These materials are really worthless now, and some of them come for nothing, but everyone here knows that these things will have unexpected value in the future, so when they are placed, the classification is very clear and the level is very strict.

Ma Xiaotian made several laps in the warehouse, and finally his eyes fell on a piece of waxy jadeite.This piece of emerald is really not very good.White and green are mixed in disorder, and there are some black spots in it.Looking at the place where it was placed, he knew that the stone definitely did not cost much money.Otherwise, the emeralds about half a meter would not be piled up on the ground. "Ninth brother, help me move this back."

Zhan Jiu was shocked: "You want to carve this? No way!"

Ma Xiaotian waved his hand: "I didn't carve it. I think this piece of jadeite is just right for carving to complete the order. I have an idea in my mind now. You take it back to the office. I will design it and ask a master to carve it."

Hearing that it was not carved by himself, Zhan Jiu grabbed such a big jadeite with one hand, and then pinched it under his arm. "Then you still want to pick a few smaller ones?"

Ma Xiaotian shook his head: "No need. I designed it first. This is more important."

The two returned to Zhan Jiu's office, Ma Xiaotian asked Zhan Jiu to put the jade on the coffee table, and he took out his smart brain and began to draw.

At first, Zhan Jiu couldn't see the value of carving such a poor-looking jade, but when the three-dimensional map on Xiaotian's brain gradually took shape, he was amazed.

What Xiaotian designed was an ornament of auspicious snow and green pine.The design drawing is to design those white emeralds and white cotton as snow falling on the pine branches.And those unsightly dark spots are designed as shadows of dead branches and pine trees.This is the first time Zhan Jiu has seen such a decoration.So even though it was already past the two-hour appointment time, he was not willing to bother.When Ma Xiaotian put down his mind and moved his neck, he hurried up to help with the massage. "Your design is great! It perfectly avoided those flaws, no, it took advantage of them!"

Ma Xiaotian snorted a few times comfortably, and then said: "This is just a preliminary manuscript. Because I don't know how deep these colors will be. So the design drawings are all a rough idea. How to carve depends on the colors when carving." The direction and depth of it. But I believe that several masters can control this design. Do you think this design is suitable?"

"It's suitable! It's perfect! It's more shocking than the design of that piece of amber." Zhan Jiu replied.

Ma Xiaotian smiled: "Your exaggeration is too exaggerated. In fact, these are two different concepts. The amber is mainly to preserve the ancient creatures hundreds of millions of years ago, so that it can be integrated with the current carvings to realize spirituality. Otherwise, the inclusions in amber are completely worthless except for collectors and scientific research institutions. What I want to express about this emerald is that any stone, as long as it is carefully considered, will be unique Treasures. These are the values ​​​​of waste rock that people did not go back to think about before."

"So you have to come up with these design drawings. Although your design is not as exquisite as those of the masters, you know how to communicate with these stones better than them."

Ma Xiaotian raised his head and looked at Zhan Jiu: "It's been a long time since I drew so intently. I'm a little tired."

Zhan Jiu lowered his head and kissed his forehead: "Otherwise, how could I not let you sculpt. It's not for your own good. After giving birth, the spiritual power of the spirit person will weaken a lot. Your physical fitness is not good in the first place."

"Don't talk about physical fitness. How can I compare with you? You can't ask me to be good according to Quebec's physical fitness. I think I am already very good." Xiaotian defended himself.

Zhan Jiu smiled: "That's true. I still had the strength to kick me down last night."

Ma Xiaotian bit Zhan Jiu's chin with his body: "Who told you to hurt me! I know that I am most afraid of pain!"

The young couple had a sweet time in the office for a while, and after lunch in the cafeteria, they went to the carving room with the design drawing and the piece of jade.

There are three hours of teaching and teaching time every day, and it is one and a half hours in the morning and one and a half hours in the afternoon. Now it happens to be class time, so there are only two engravers in the carving room.

Yuan Pu was a little surprised when he saw Zhan Jiu come in with this jadeite. "Mr. Zhan, do you want us to carve this stone? Or do you want to cut it?"

Shao Jiayi also left and hurriedly stood up and walked over. "The appearance of this piece of jade is really terrible."

Zhan Jiu put the stone on the jade carving platform beside him, and Ma Xiaotian then took out his brain. "Teachers, this is my design drawing. How about you two?"

Like Zhan Jiu, it just looks lively, but it's really good to look at.But in the eyes of the two engravers, this is the difficulty.Yuan Pu is the best jade carving craftsman among the three sculptors, and he is also the most influential person in the studio.After seeing Ma Xiaotian's design, he was really surprised. "This design is very good, and it involves every feature and advantage of the original stone. But the carving may not be [-]% the same."

Ma Xiaotian smiled and said, "It doesn't have to be the same. Isn't the greatest charm of stone carvings the uncertainty? If all the carvings are the same, just like the ones carved by machines, then its value will be lost, and the carving will also be lost. meaning. So mine is just a preliminary design draft. When you guys are carving, you must make specific modifications according to the specific conditions of the stone."

Yuan Pu swiped the design drawing with his hand, checked all the angles of the image, and finally nodded: "Okay. This design is so good, I will try it. Although this piece of jade is not well grown and its color is not good, it has reached the Waxy jade is also very beautiful after being polished. With such a good design, I believe that the finished product will be shocking. Is this going to be sent to the exhibition?"

Ma Xiaotian replied: "That's right. It's the same as that amber. Then I will leave this to you. I will transfer the design to your brain now. If you need my help, please feel free to contact me."

Yuan Pudao: "It is absolutely necessary to discuss with you. After all, there are countless possibilities for carving the rough stone. Of course, I hope that it is exactly the same as your final design draft."

Ma Xiaotian smiled: "You know it too. You don't need to be so rigorous. It's a deal when it's done. This carving is yours to complete."

"Then I will concentrate on carving this jade from tomorrow. Mr. Zhan, please re-arrange the teaching and carving work. Since this carving is sent for display, there is no room for a little error, and the amount of work is relatively large. The amber is much bigger." Yuan Pu thought about it, but still made the request.

Zhan Jiu nodded: "That's no problem. Teacher Shao, then the teaching tasks for a while will be handed over to you and Teacher Sun."
