Chapter 9 Differences between Machine Engraving and Handwork

Today, Xu Suwan came back earlier, and she brought back two news, one good news and one bad news.Like everyone else, she asked first, "Son, do you want the good news first, or the bad news first?"

What she held in her hand were the core carvings made by Hu Tu, which were strung together into two strings. Obviously, what she wanted to say was also news about these two strings of core carvings.

"Good news." Hu Tu rubbed his palms and said with a smile, "Let's hear the good news first to calm down."

Xu Suwan also laughed, and she said: "The good news is that the nuclear carvings you make are worth some money. As long as you work diligently and practice hard, you can support your family with this business."

"Let me just say, if you can't afford big fish and meat, you can still afford to eat dirt." A happy smile appeared on Hu Tu's face. Although this news was expected, it is indeed good news, " What about the bad news?"

Xu Suwan put away her smiling face and said, "The bad news is that everyone says that the things you carve look like machines, but your carving speed is not as fast as the machine, so you are at a disadvantage. If you can't become a famous person, you can carve it out." The price of the nuclear carving will not be too high."

The so-called fame and fortune are separated into two things, but in fact they are common.If a person does not have special and noble pursuits, he must be famous if he is famous, and if he is famous, he will be famous.

This bad news was unexpected. When Hu Tu first heard it, he frowned, thought for a while, then relaxed, and said, "Mom, this is actually good news, but the good news is not so obvious." He explained, "I'm just starting now, and the core carvings I made will inevitably have problems. This is normal, and it's not normal if there are no problems. Some people have made comments, which is convenient for me to correct. From this perspective, this is good news."

He thought about possible reasons why others thought the nuclear statue he made was machine-carved.First of all, because the roots of Hu Xiaolian are very smooth, the carved core carvings are too smooth, without knife marks and edges and corners. In the eyes of experts, they appear straight and monotonous, without charm.

Furthermore, he is a novice and cannot show too many details, so the nuclei works appear rigid and lifeless.Moreover, in his works, there are few changes in different core carvings, which do not conform to the different characteristics of manual core carvings.

With so many special features, it is no wonder that others think his nuclear carving works are counterfeit machine carvings.If he had seen these nuclear sculptures, he might have made the same judgment.

Xu Suwan was very happy to hear what Hu Tu said. Being able to turn bad news into good news is a characteristic of successful people.She said: "It's good if you can think like this. If you really plan to do this business, do it well. However, you have to study hard. In case one day you don't like sculpture, or you can't do sculpture for some reason, You can also leave yourself a way out."

"Got it!" As soon as he mentioned reading, Hu Tu felt a headache. Now that he has Hu Xiaolian, he can do everything smoothly, and the possibility of continuing to study has long since been thrown out of the sky. .”

"Wait a minute!" Xu Suwan called to stop Hu Tu, and asked, "You are in such a hurry, have you made dinner yet?"

Ever since Hu Tu showed his talent for cooking, Xu Suwan felt that the food she cooked tasted like wax.Just like her performance when she was reading, she was listless on the way of learning to cook, and she didn't even have a beginning.Therefore, in this family, cooking is a nonsense thing, and it can be regarded as using him as a housewife.

"Uh, yes, let's cook first." Hu Tu ran into the kitchen in a hurry to cook, but ran into the study without eating.

He took out the latest nuclear carving works, looked up and down, left and right, and felt the difference from when he carved with a knife.He picked up the carving knife from time to time, tried to carve two knives, and then carefully compared the differences.

"It's almost the same as what I wrote on the Internet, but I still have a deep experience after trying it myself." Hu Tu said to himself, "I used to think this thing is small and simple, but I didn't expect it to become more complicated as I drilled into it. It seems that the world's There is not much that is the same on the outside and inside, and every industry is very complicated." He suddenly smiled and said, "However, those who can come out of the complexity gracefully will become the best in the industry and become masters. I am also a figure who wants to become a master, so, work hard!"

When he was concentrating on one thing, the time passed quickly, and the night was already dark in a blink of an eye. If Hu Xiaolian hadn't urged him, he might not know when he would be busy.

"What time is it?" Hu Tu glanced at the door, "It's getting dark, and my mother doesn't ask me to eat." He walked out of the study and walked into the room, where Xu Suwan was watching TV with a smile , he complained, "Mom, you've finished eating, why don't you call me?"

"Tch, why did I call you?" Xu Suwan glanced at him and said, "Don't think I don't know, you must be pretending to be serious in the study, just waiting for me to go over and praise you. Wait now, Did you know it yourself? Hehe, I won’t call you.” She smiled smugly, and the excitement of watching TV seemed to be mixed in her smile.

"Mom, you are a villain, uh, that..." Hu Tu faltered, skipping the idiom he blurted out, "You can judge others by yourself, yes, you can't judge others by yourself, I was really serious just now Seriously." He no longer cares about the meaning of what he said, so he has to cover up his slip of the tongue first.

"Don't pant when you speak!" Xu Suwan suddenly ordered loudly, "What did you say just now? Who are you calling a villain? You dare to talk to your mother like that, you are not small!" She stared at Hu Tu seriously, but the corners of her mouth held With a faint smile, he suddenly couldn't help but burst out laughing, laughed for a while, and said, "Look, you're scared, hurry up and eat!"

Hu Tuchang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mom, are you not angry?"

Xu Suwan said with a smile: "You think I'm like you young people, who love to get angry at every turn. Do you know that getting angry is harmful to your body, and it will also affect your appearance. I don't do that kind of thankless thing." In recent years, life at home has gotten better, and she has paid more and more attention to maintaining her body.In her opinion, gold and silver are not as good as good health, and she doesn't have any big pursuits, and this is her personal experience all the time.

"Mom, you are still generous!" Hu Tu gave a thumbs up and praised. When he was about to eat, he thought of something again, and turned around and said, "I suddenly discovered that you are still very good. Just now you proved that you are very good. You are a gentleman, but on the other hand, I have saved others by myself!"

When Hu Tu said this, Xu Suwan laughed happily and said: "That sentence is to measure the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, you little one!"
