Jin Yutong

Chapter 47 Selling Jade

For a whole day, Chen Ran was doing the same movements, non-stop, for a long time, and he didn't feel bored at all.

His progress was so fast that he himself was a little surprised. For the first time, he wondered whether he was actually quite talented in carving jade.

At the end of the day, Chen Ran can not only do the whole set of movements proficiently, but even though the whole process can't be said to be smooth and smooth, at least it is done in one go, and the movements are also very standard.

When Chen Ran was able to perform all the movements proficiently, he began to try the real practice.

I saw Chen Ran holding a carving knife in his hand, standing quietly in front of a huge piece of marble.

I have to say that jade carving is actually a very expensive profession. Although Chen Ran is not too poor now, he is not so extravagant that he can use jade to practice, and there is no need for that at all, and he is now I just started to practice drawing circles, and the larger the material, the better. In this way, a piece of marble is undoubtedly the right choice.

Chen Ran looked at the marble very intently, just like when he was carving jade.

With some anticipation and curiosity, Chen Ran took a deep breath.

Then he moved!

His body started to move!

I saw that Chen Ran's body was like a snake, and one after another incredible movements danced along with the trajectory of the carving knife in his hand. The whole picture gave people a weird feeling, quite like a folk dancing god .

Keng Keng Keng... The sound of the chisel hitting the marble resounded throughout the room. The sound was very rhythmic, like a symphony of piano playing.

Eagles fly away, rabbits fly away, the morning sun is late at night... Time is passing away so quietly. In the blink of an eye, three or four days are gone. He never went out again, and stayed in the house practicing the eight-sword and wave-sword technique.

On the second day, Fatty Luo gave Chen Ran all the certificates. He also registered for the Jade Carving Contest. He also arranged for Chen Ran to attend a cram school. Chen Ran also attended it once. class.

For this cram school, to be honest, Chen Ran was a little disappointed. He thought the lecturer would impart some experience in appreciating jade, but who knew that was not the case at all. What the lecturer taught was entirely for the students to cope with the essay test in the competition. For the exam, these things are all in the books, and there is no experience at all.

Chen Ran went to the class all morning, and never went there again. He didn't need to waste time listening to the basic knowledge in these books. For him, the most important thing now is time, and time is everything.

If Chen Ran only wanted to test his carving ability and level before he got the eight-knife split-wave knife technique, then after he got the eight-knife split-wave knife technique, his thoughts became a little different .

Chen Ran is not blind, he does not have the eight-knife split-wave sword technique, and he knows that he can only be a foil when participating in the jade carving competition, but now that he has the eight-knife divide-wave knife technique, his thoughts will naturally change accordingly .

If you don't participate in the Jade Carving Competition, you won't participate, and if you participate, you will be a blockbuster!

But now all he needs to do is to practice, and practice again... Try to practice the eight-sword and wave-sword technique to a certain level before the big competition comes.

Originally, the time was tight, but Chen Ran was given some time as a student of the Jade Carving Competition. The Jade Carving Competition was held on March [-]rd, and students of the Jade Carving School did not need to participate in the preliminary competition. Some more time.

In the past four days, it cannot be said that Chen Ran has made great progress. It can no longer be described as great, but it can only be said that his progress is astonishing!

In the room, Chen Ran is now completely immersed in the eight-knife split-wave knife technique. I saw him holding the carving knife in his hand, as if carelessly, as if he waved it casually, and as if he threw it unintentionally. Almost perfect circles are gracefully drawn in midair.

Every time a circle is drawn, a circular mark will be left on the marble. Although this circle cannot be said to be perfect, at first glance, it is not much different from the one drawn with a compass.

The gleaming carving knife is like a beating note, playing a melodious tune in the hands of a musician like Chen Ran.

Every time Chen Ran waved his hand, a piece of dust would be brought out, like snowflakes, falling leisurely in mid-air, and a piece of marble with a thickness of three inches in front of Chen Ran had been polished to less than an inch thick by him, and it had already fallen under his feet. A thick layer of stone powder.

Looking at Chen Ran again, if you look at Chen Ran's eyes, it will be even more surprising!

Because now Chen Ran's eyes were covered with a piece of black cloth, he didn't look at the marble in front of him at all, and when he cut it with a knife, circles of different sizes appeared one after another on the marble.

At this moment, the carving knife in Chen Ran's hand was no longer a carving knife, but an extension of Chen Ran's arm.

Time passed unknowingly... I don't know how long it has passed, the carving knife suddenly stopped, a breeze blew by, and stone powder like snowflakes fell one after another. Looking at the marble again, a strange pattern appeared in front of my eyes .

There are circles one after another, and these circles are connected one after another, densely packed, at a glance, it makes people feel dizzy!

But at this moment, Chen Ran, who was blindfolded, suddenly squatted on the ground. He tried his best to slowly take off the black cloth over his eyes, but saw that his face was pale, as if he had suffered a serious illness As if, the face is constantly dripping with sweat dripping down the face.

Although very tired, although very tired, although very sleepy, Chen Ran's eyes were shining with crystal light. How could his physical fatigue offset his spiritual satisfaction? At this time, he finally divided the eight swords into waves. The first step of the Fa has been refined to Consummation!

It has to be said that if Gu Yu, who was lying in the coffin, knew that Chen Ran had reached this step in less than seven days, he would definitely sit up from the coffin in surprise, because it was this step that cost him a lot of money. For three months day and night, even so, the circle he drew was not as standard as Chen Ran's circle.

The reason for this is that Gu Yu at that time did not have the advantage of Chen Ran now, just like Gu Yu did not have Chen Ran's memory ability, and there was no one who performed for him in front of him, drawing circles, circles, etc. The lack of roundness mainly depends on whether the body's movements are standard or not.

Gu Yu didn't know how long it took him to 'grope' to become more and more standard, but now Chen Ran is tantamount to directly using the fruits of his labor in his later years.

But at this moment, Chen Ran turned his head to look at the jade material on the wooden table, his eyes seemed to be vaguely filled with curiosity - one point of curiosity, three points of anticipation, six points of confidence!

Carrying a black plastic bag, Chen Ran stepped into the Zhongdu Antique City, and after entering it, he saw a store with a signboard of Yuyuan hanging on it. Obviously, this is a Shops specializing in jade.

In the past, Chen Ran also visited this store, but at that time, he just took a look, glanced into the store, and Chen Ran walked over to this jade shop.

Entering the store, there is a booth about one meter high facing you. On it is a Chinese cabbage carved completely from jade. It looks green and bright, and it is extremely gratifying.

Maybe it was because of Saturday, there were quite a lot of customers in the store. Chen Ran looked at the four counters placed in a circle. Rings, pendants, jade pendants, and bracelets are the main items. On the main counter, there are also two large items, one is the God of Wealth, and the other is a sailing boat. Exhibit it here.

After looking at the counters one by one, Chen Ran walked to the counter in the store.

"Hello, sir, what kind of jade do you want to buy? Or what kind of jade are you planning to use for it? If there is no one on the counter that you are satisfied with, I can try my best to help you find one that satisfies you. Jade!"

There are three jade sellers in the store, two women and one man. The two women are all young girls in work clothes. One stands at the door as a courtesy, and the other stands at the counter. The man is a middle-aged man. The man, with his gold-rimmed eyes, was in charge of explaining to the clients.When Chen Ran walked to the counter, the little girl inside the counter greeted Chen Ran with a sweet smile.

"Sorry, I'm not here to buy jade wares. I want to ask, do you accept jade wares in your shop?" Chen Ran shook his head and asked directly.

"Jade collection?"

Chen Ran's words stunned the little girl, and then she hesitated and shook her head. This was the first time she encountered such a thing. To be honest, she didn't know whether she would accept the jade or not, but she probably wouldn't accept it. Well, she has only come to the store not long ago, and it's only been a month, but she has never received any jade in this month.

"I'm sorry, sir, we only sell jade wares here, we don't buy jade wares!"

"That's it, forget it, sorry to bother you!"

It was not the first time for Chen Ran to experience such a thing, and he was not disappointed. This house would not accept him, and he would change his house. Thinking of this, he turned around and left.

"what happened?"

At this time, the middle-aged man with glasses also saw the scene here, glanced at Chen Ran, and asked the little girl.

"Manager Qi, this gentleman asked if we would accept jade articles?"

When the little girl heard the middle-aged man's question, she quickly replied. When she answered, she seemed a little apprehensive, afraid that she might make a mistake, and Chen Ran also stopped and looked at Manager Qi.What happened here also attracted the attention of some guests, and they all glanced here.

"Jade collection?"

Manager Qi seemed to be interested as soon as he heard it. He glanced at Chen Ran, walked over, and smiled at Chen Ran: "Sir, can I see your jade wares?"
