Reborn Craftsman

Chapter 185 The Tragic Zhang Xiaoyu
Village Chief Wang said: "Boss Xiao told the leaders of the province about your abilities. I'm afraid someone will come to pick you up and help the province in a few days."

"What?" Liu Xing thought he heard it wrong.

Go to the province to help, damn it, why does this thing feel a little wrong!

"Don't be angry! I know you really want to go home now, but this matter has nothing to do with me, and it's not my whistleblowing, but Boss Xiao's responsibility!" Village Chief Wang sighed softly: "What should I say? I’ve said it all, what to do is up to you.”

People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. Liu Xing first repaired the golden bean steamer, and then paid for the collapsed bamboo building. This method, the strength of many experts, is not as good as it is, so the leaders of the province noticed this. It is also a very normal thing.

"No, that's the end of it! You have to tell me what you can do to help in the province?" Liu Xing asked in confusion.

"This is a secret, I swore it, I can't tell it!" Village Chief Wang ran away with Director Zhang, smoking a pipe.

Liu Xing really wanted to catch up and ask for clarification, but in the end he couldn't leave.

Because he knew that with Village Chief Wang's character, if he could say it, he would have said it long ago.

"Let's go!" Zhang Xiaoyu shouted.

If I don't leave at this time, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave later.

Liu Xing rubbed his face. Under the entanglement, he had no choice but to ride another motorcycle, followed Zhang Xiaoyu, and went to Zhang's farm house.

On the way, he saw many villagers of Dongyu Village who were looking for traces of bamboo birds, including Ahu.

Out of good intentions, Liu Xing stopped the motorcycle and persuaded Ah Hu to go back, so that he would not lose his life for money.

Who knew that Ahu replied with a simple smile: "Brother, you don't have to worry about me, I'm just going through the motions, I won't take risks in deep mountains and old forests."

"Then it's totally meaningless for you to do this!" Liu Xing said in puzzlement.

"Who said it's meaningless, I was hired by Boss Xiao for ten yuan a day, no matter whether I found the bamboo bird or not, I have money, and I still care about eating!" Ahu explained the reason.

"I understand!" Liu Xing suddenly realized.

I'm afraid that apart from Ah Hu, the other villagers in Dongyu Village have also been hired, because the temptation of ten yuan a day is really quite big.

Seeing that Ah Hu waved at him and ran away, he had no choice but to bid farewell to Zhangjia Farm House.

……

Go back to the Zhangjia farm house.

it's getting dark.

Just in time for dinner, Liu Xing didn't say anything polite, and immediately picked up his rice bowl and started eating.

Zhang Xiaoyu didn't sit down, but smiled mysteriously at Second Master, then took out the Jade Buddha and the iron box from the back box of the motorcycle, and put them in front of Second Master ostentatiously: " You used to always say that I don’t know what to do, and I don’t have any leftovers to eat, but this time I finally gave you a face!"

"Where did this come from?" Zhang Erye asked in a low voice.

"Bamboo House in Dongyu Village!" Zhang Xiaoyu frowned.

"What, are you stealing from others again?" Zhang Xiaoying, who was eating, almost spit out the food in his mouth.

"Xiaoying, can you speak?" Zhang Xiaoyu gave Zhang Xiaoying a blank look.

"Shut up!" Zhang Erye cursed in a low voice.

Zhang Xiaoyu was distraught, so he had to sit down politely with his mouth pursed.

Zhang Erye picked up the emerald jade Buddha and looked at it carefully, then shook his head and said: "You return this jade Buddha tomorrow, our Zhang family doesn't like it."

"Why, this is emerald, priceless!" Zhang Xiaoyu asked.

"You know what, the color is very similar to jadeite, but it's not even serious jade!" Second Master Zhang slapped Zhang Xiaoyu's head with a slap: "You After tossing around in Dongyu Village for a long time, I brought this back, and I have the nerve to show it off, what a disgrace to the Zhang family!"

"Ah? This thing is not made of jade!" Zhang Xiaoyu covered his head, feeling so aggrieved that he didn't know what to say for a while.

Liu Xing couldn't help laughing at this moment: "I said earlier that this thing is worthless, but you still don't believe what I said, now it's all right, get scolded!"

"Shut up, you're not a good person!" Zhang Xiaoyu stomped his feet angrily. At this time, he was still making trouble, and he was still not a brother.

Mr. Zhang shook his head, checked the contents of the iron box again, saw that they were all ancient books, and handed them to Liu Xing immediately: "I'm afraid this is what you need?"

"Well, I want to take it back and copy it, and then send it back to the bamboo building. After all, this is something from Dongyu Village, and I don't want to keep it for myself!" Liu Xing replied truthfully.

"There is no need for this. These ancient books were lost in Dongyu Village decades ago. It is your luck and fate that you can find them. Just keep them!" Second Master Zhang sighed softly: "These ancient books The bamboo building in Dongyu Village can only be buried, but it will flourish in your hands, Liu Xing, and I don’t say you understand the meaning of this.”

"Second Lord is planning to copy the top, middle and bottom copies of the golden bean steamer for you to take back. He doesn't want the golden bean steamer to be left without anyone to inherit it!" Zhang Xiaoying looked at Liu Xing and said teasingly.

"Ah?" Liu Xing was a little surprised.

When did Zhang Erye become so talkative?

"Hehe...don't look at me like this. Zhang's family passed by Qu's house, and I have figured out a lot of things!" Second master Zhang smiled and gave Liu Xing a piece of braised pork: "Eat, eat, wait for you I want to help repair the golden bean steamer! I can’t work without strength!”

"Okay!" Liu Xing knew that there were some things he shouldn't ask, so he buried his head and started eating.

After eating and resting for a while, after putting away all the ancient books in the iron box, he was taken to the hall by Zhang Erye to check the effect of the century-old toon wood after drying.

In the hall, there was an old man with a goatee beard who was mixing varnish. When he saw Second Master Zhang coming, he hurriedly greeted him: "Second Master, I have prepared the varnish according to the formula you gave, and I am waiting for you to speak. brushed!"

"En!" Zhang Erye nodded, he ignored the old man's enthusiasm for painting, but asked Liu Xing: "Will the varnish this night affect the century-old toon wood?"

"Probably not!" Liu Xing stepped forward and checked the century-old toon wood on the hall floor with a tape measure. Seeing that there was no crack on the square surface, and it had been straightened with a plane, he nodded in satisfaction.

The Zhang family seems to be quite good at doing things. Not only did they meet his requirements, but even the size was not bad at all, which is very rare.

As long as the varnish is prepared, brush it on and let it dry for a while, it can be installed.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing walked up to the varnish prepared by the old man and took a closer look with a wooden stick. Suddenly, he shook his head with a dark face: "The quality of this varnish is not good, and it must be re-mixed."

Although he did not work as a painter before rebirth, he did a lot of carpentry and dealt with all kinds of painters. It is said that those who are close to ink are black, and those who are close to vermilion are red. He knows more or less about varnish What is the quality standard? If there is a slight flaw, he will not say anything, but the paint in the bucket in front of him is really not good.

If it is painted on hundred-year-old Chinese toon wood, I am afraid that there will be no anti-corrosion, waterproof, and insect-proof effects at all.

"What did you say?" The old man's goatee raised his beard in a daze when he heard the words: "Do you, a teenager, know how to mix paint? How much is this bucket of paint worth if you understand it? It will take three days to find that material!"
