At this time, Song Yu had already taken out a timer and placed it in between the two of them.

The two of them had already wielded their blades, but in order to not provoke the old man, Xue Yang had used his body to directly block his jade stone.

The Luo Lao himself had proposed to carve the Jade Buddha, and according to what he had said before, he was once referred to as Jade Buddha Luo, so it was clear how proficient he was in carving the Jade Buddha.

With regards to Xue Yang watching him from the moment he carved five blades, Luo Lao was obviously quite impatient.

But at this time, Xue Yang directly placed a perfect Jade Buddha in front of Luo Lao.

The Jade Buddha could not be considered a masterpiece, but regardless of its appearance or its usage, it could be considered a commodity. Furthermore, the powder on top of the Jade Buddha was enough to say that the Jade Buddha had just been carved.

Of course, the person who was the most shocked would definitely still be the Luo Lao who was competing with Xue Yang.

Luo Lao's eyes widened and his mouth formed an "O" shape, so big that it could fit an egg.

Looking at the Maitreya Buddha that Xue Yang had already completed, and then looking at the that hadn't even done anything, the gap was simply not small at all.

"I'm not going to play anymore, I'm not going to play anymore. Young people nowadays don't know how to let these old people play. If they don't, then there's no way to play anymore!" Luo Lao directly slammed his blade on the counter, then turned and walked out the door.

His posture when he walked out was still very upright and his chest was puffed up, but his steps seemed a bit chaotic.

Looking at the old man's leaving figure, Song Yu asked worriedly, "Is Luo Lao alright?"

Xue Yang smiled and said, "Very good, pack up."

After saying that, Xue Yang immediately picked up the jade in the old man's hand and looked at it. Although the old man had only used a few slashes, Xue Yang could already tell that what he wanted to carve was not a complete Buddha statue, Luo Lao only wanted to carve a Buddha head.

For a Buddha statue, the Buddha head was the hardest part to carve because the most rare part about a Buddha statue was its charm. And the place that could express its charm the most was the Buddha head.

"Sure, this old man has some skills." Xue Yang smiled at the jade block, he immediately took the Luo Lao's carving knife and outlined the outline of the item on the jade block. Using Luo Lao's ten strokes as the foundation, before long, he managed to carve a perfect image of the Buddha's head.

Seeing that the carving brush had been worn out to the point that it couldn't be used, Xue Yang shook his head, what kind of master sculptor was this, he was simply a destitute sculptor, but after seeing the house on the carving pen, Xue Yang smiled.

Seeing Xue Yang foolishly laughing, Song Yu used his hand and gestured in front of his eyes, "I say, Xue Yang, you aren't possessed, are you?"

However, Xue Yang was still laughing foolishly, as if he had not heard the Lady Boss' words.

When the Lady Boss moved closer to Xue Yang and looked at him carefully, Xue Yang suddenly moved a little and kissed Song Yu's face. Then, he entered his bedroom.

Song Yu, who was kissed, stood there stunned for a long time before finally reacting. He directly chased after Xue Yang, but by then, he had already gone into his room to lock the door.

In order to express her unwillingness, Song Yu used all her strength to knock on the door, but she still had a strange smile on her face, as though she had just eaten honey.

Early morning of the second day, when Xue Yang came out of his room, he realized that the Lady Boss was not chasing after him.

When Song Yu was eating, he purposely said that he was very busy, and that there were some accounts that needed to be settled quickly. It was unknown whether it was because he was truly busy, or because he was shy and purposely avoided Xue Yang.

But Xue Yang did not care, after eating he swaggered out the door.

Bai Yusheng's fervent voice came from the other end of the phone, "little mister, little mister, you finally gave me a call. Could it be that you've thought it through and decided to come over to my place to work, although I can't give you a salary increase from last time, but in terms of benefits, I can still give you a huge increase. What do you think?"

Hearing Boss Bai's wishful thinking, Xue Yang also smiled and said: "I say, Boss Bai, please don't grade me. You know that I can't possibly work at your place."

"That's true. I was thinking too much." Bai Yusheng who was on the other end of the phone was obviously very disappointed.

However, Xue Yang continued: "Just because I can't work for you doesn't mean that others can't. If you have the time, you can come straight to the Jade Market. I have something that I need to ask you about."

"Alright, I'll be right there."

Although Xue Yang did not say what exactly happened, Boss Bai agreeing to it at once showed the position Xue Yang held in his heart.

When the two men gathered at the jade market's entrance, Boss Bai started to cough up bitter water, "Do you know how hard my life is right now? Although the previous skull lotus root has brought us a lot of profits, but from then on the company stopped cooking. You also know that our old teacher is paralyzed right now, and the remaining people are not reliable at all. The things they carved cannot be sold for a high price."

However, Xue Yang did not say anything, he only extended his hand and signaled Boss Bai to follow him. At this moment, he was holding an old jade carving knife in his hand.

When Xue Yang brought Boss Bai to an inconspicuous corner of the jade market, Xue Yang directly walked into a dilapidated materials shop.

As for the old teacher who had taken the initiative to compete with him, he was currently bent over a writing paper, wholeheartedly carving out a high-quality jade.

It was indeed the Luo Lao, and the address written on the blade was correct.

However, Luo Lao did not notice that two people had entered the room.

At this time, an old woman came out from the inner room, complaining as she walked, "You damned old man, you dream of being a sculptor for a hundred days just because of your dogshit dream of wasting so many materials. Even with all the materials you have wasted over the past few decades, you can still buy a house for your son, but now, even if we sold our shop, we wouldn't be able to buy a toilet! "My God, you even used a new carving knife. You're not going to live anymore!"

The old lady was a little fat, but her walking did not seem very steady. When she noticed that two guests had come in and that their manners were quite good, she ran two steps faster and grabbed onto Luo Lao's ears, shouting loudly, "An important guest has arrived, do you know? Stop carving your damn work! You will never be a sculptor in your life! "

Luo Lao and the rest unwillingly turned their heads, but when they saw that two people had Xue Yang, they immediately ran towards the direction of the house.

However, the old woman who looked like his wife firmly grabbed onto his ear and pulled him out alive: "Let's see where else you can run to! Hurry up and receive my guests! "

Under Madam's coercion, Luo Lao could only come in front of Xue Yang with a red face.

But Xue Yang did not say anything, and placed the slightly old carving knife into Luo Lao's hand.

Seeing that the carving knife that he had used for more than ten years had returned into his hands, Luo Lao's eyes also shone. After wiping it with his sleeves, he quickly put it away.

Just then, Luo Lao's wife started shouting again, "You heartless thing, what did I say? If you were to write down the address on the blade, if someone was kind enough to pick it up, they would have sent it over. How much money would you have saved?"

Luo Lao couldn't take his old partner's grumbling either. He shouted directly: "You know my ass, calm down for me!"

As if she had not expected Luo Lao to be so angry, his wife shivered. After muttering a few more words to him, she returned to her room with a slow pace.

Luo Lao laughed awkwardly: "I have let you two down, especially Little Brother Xue Yang, I have really let you see an ugly scene."

Seeing that the current Luo Lao was completely different from the Luo Lao he met yesterday, Xue Yang asked in confusion, "You aren't actually an arrogant person right? But why did you have to act like this yesterday?"

Sigh, speaking of this matter, you truly embarrassed my old face. I was just afraid that you would despise an old man like me, so if I did not say that, you would not have sparred with me. So, in order to obtain this opportunity, I can only act shamelessly.

As he spoke up to here, the old man directly lowered his head.

This was because the difference between him and the young man in front of him during yesterday's competition was just too great. This was also the first time Luo Lao felt that he truly did not have the ability to carve.

However, Xue Yang smiled and said: "If I had given you enough time yesterday, the Buddha head that you have carved would definitely have been sold for a lot more than my Maitreya Buddha."

At this time, Boss Bai, who had been looking at the jade carvings in the store, suddenly opened her eyes wide.

Worth more than what Xue Yang sculpted? How is this possible!? He even suspected that he had heard wrongly.

But what was even more shocking was still the Luo Lao. The Luo Lao asked in disbelief: "How did you know that I want to carve a Buddha head? I don't even have a …"

Before he finished speaking, Xue Yang took out a buddha's head from his pocket and said, "It's like this, right?"

Luo Lao was even more surprised, because the Buddha's appearance was exactly what he had imagined it to be.
