Ma Chunlai, standing on one side, thought of the result after hearing the question asked by Wang Chengwen, because Lin Fan's answer was too unexpected.
"Picked it up by hand Wang Chengwen was a fool. He never thought it would be like this.
Wang Xiaojuan is also surprised. She is about to swallow her fist. This is the top Cangshan jade. She picked it up casually. Is it too bad luck?!
"Where did you pick it up?" Wang Xiaojuan also couldn't help asking.
Lin Fan replied, "on my island."
"On the island, yours?" Wang Xiaojuan was stunned for a moment, and then understood the meaning of this.
Private island!
I think it's unusual that even private islands have
Wang Chengwen waved his hand and motioned to Wang Xiaojuan not to ask any more questions. It was out of order, and it would be more excessive to ask again.
"Mr. Lin, do you want me to carve this jade out?"
Lin Fan nodded and said, "yes, Mr. Wang, would you like to take the job?"
With the situation just now, Lin fan is not sure whether Wang Chengwen will be willing to carve for himself.
I just saw it and almost pulled it out excitedly. If I took it back to carve it for myself, I'm afraid it's not the kind that I can't get back after taking medicine.
But Wang Chengwen was overjoyed and said, "yes, of course. It's a great honor for such a good young master of jade forest to be handed over to me for carving."
Wang Xiaojuan also nodded happily, knowing that her teacher was happy from the bottom of her heart.
Just now the situation is just an accident. Seeing Cangshan jade is too excited. Now Lin fan can give the jade to the teacher to carve is the best result.
If you don't carve for the teacher, it's a bad thing. As the saying goes, only the wrong name, not the wrong nickname.
Wang Chengwen, the nickname of jade maniac, doesn't come for nothing. If he sees Haoyu and doesn't carve it himself, he really can't think about food and tea. According to his current physical condition, he will have to hang up in a few days.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiaojuan could not help but embolden herself and said, "thank you for your trust. My teacher is the best sculptor in the jade industry. She will give you the most perfect work."
"I've heard about Mr. Wang for a long time. Please be old this time." Lin Fan said with a smile.
Wang Chengwen waved his hand: "what kind of master craftsman, they are all nominal names. What kind of work do you want to carve, Mr. Lin?"
Lin Fan shook his head: "I heard that jade carving is designed according to the texture and grain of the original stone, so I have no idea of what to carve."
"Well, I don't know if you want to carve the whole piece or cut it open?"
"I want to give it to my elders as a birthday present. Is it better to keep it intact?"
"Birthday gift, let me give you a suggestion. According to the shape, texture and green and white color of this jade, carving a jade cabbage is the most suitable." Wang Chengwen thought it over and said.
"Jade cabbage?"
"Jade cabbage!"
It was Lin fan who questioned and Ma Chunlai who was surprised.
Lin fan doesn't know what to do, so he just has some doubts. But Ma Chunlai knows clearly that jade cabbage sounds very rustic, but it's not as simple as he thought.
If you want to carve jade into cabbage, it's a great test of craftsman's skill, not the top craftsman. It's only a joke to say this.
Because carving jade cabbage really needs three kinds of conditions: Heaven, earth and man.
The first is to have the right raw stone, not the best jade.
Secondly, the color and texture should be consistent, which is even more difficult.
Finally, it depends on the craftsman's level, otherwise the best jade carving will be a waste.
If you want to carve a lifelike jade cabbage that can be almost confused with the real, you can't do without decades of hard work.
If this can not express the precious and rare of jade cabbage, take another example. So far, there are only two jade cabbage in the world.
As a national treasure stored in the Forbidden City in Kyoto, it is not allowed to take the super national treasure exhibited abroad.
This is the birthday gift that the old Buddha received at his 60th birthday in the previous dynasty. Once presented, it is regarded as auspicious.
Up to now more than 100 years, there are countless craftsmen in the jade circle who want to re carve jade cabbage, but no one has succeeded.
It's not to say that there are no, but those are inferior products, which can't make it into the elegant hall.
Now that Wang Chengwen is in the position of carving jade cabbage, it must be carved for the national treasure level in the Forbidden City.
So Ma Chunlai was surprised when he heard this sentence.
What's more, he was too excited to say: "Wang, Mr. Wang, are you serious? Jade cabbage, do you really want to carve jade cabbage?... "
Wang Chengwen was displeased and said, "I can't make a joke, saying that jade cabbage is jade cabbage!"
Lin Fan didn't know what was in it. Seeing that Wang Chengwen had a plan in mind, he nodded and clapped his head and said, "OK, let's go according to Wang's advice. I just don't know how long it will take." Wang Chengwen knew that Lin Fan was going to be given as a birthday present, so he must have used it in the near future. He thought about it in his heart and said, "how about a month? It won't delay Mr. Lin?" Lin Fan shook his head: "no, the time is just right."“ That's good. " Wang Chengwen let out a breath secretly. If he wants to carve jade cabbage well in a month, the pressure is not small for him. It's also jade cabbage. In ancient times, the tools used by craftsmen were backward. They had to be carefully carved for more than ten years. Fortunately, now that the tools are advanced, it won't take so long, but considering the complexity of the jade cabbage, one month is actually very tense. Wang Chengwen still has several other people's entrustments in his hand, but he has decided that even if he leaves behind this old face, he will have to postpone or return those jobs directly. Because Lin Fan's jade, he is so fascinated that he can't take it back to work now. Wang Chengwen is also a vigorous and resolute person. When he thinks of something, he immediately stands up and says, "let's not sit here. Mr. Lin, let's go to my studio and sign the entrustment contract as soon as possible. Let's start work as soon as possible." Of course, Lin Fan didn't have any opinions, so he nodded and said a few words of thanks to Ma Chunlai, and left Ma Ji with three girls. Only Ma Chunlai was left behind, looking at the back of the crowd's leaving, with some regrets and reluctance in his heart. As a jade Carver, of course, he also wanted to carve a piece of top-level jade himself, but the reputation of a small family is not high. This kind of good things will never come to his hands, that is, Lin Fan did not understand, just coincidentally walked into his shop.
