Chapter 1286 - Wasting heavenly resources

On hearing that, Yuan Zhou also felt the smell on his body. He replied indifferently,””Master, you’ll know in a while.”

“You never like to use anything with a smell, kid. Why are you keeping us in suspense?” Carpenter Lian teased with a smile.

“This time is an exception.” Yuan Zhou said.

“Senior brother Yuan, you’re joking too.” Ma Xiao also smiled and added.

“You’ll know soon enough. ” Yuan Zhou didn’t explain much. He just signaled the two of them to continue walking toward the backyard.

From the master chef Restaurant to the Sergestes wall view, and then to the backyard where the wood was placed, it was not far. They arrived in less than five minutes.

Carpenter Lian and Ma Xiao immediately noticed the four logs lying on the ground. One of the logs had one end that was slightly dismantled.

Because the weather was clear today, the fragrance of the scented Rosewood was not as strong as it was on a rainy day, and the backyard was open. Other than the rich and mellow smell when it was just opened, the smell was not obvious after such a long time.

Of course, this was only the case for ordinary people like carpenter Lian and Ma Xiao. For Yuan Zhou, the smell was quite obvious.

“You came just in time. You haven’t had the time to tear it down yet.” Carpenter Lian said with a smile.

“Yes, it just so happens that master and Junior Brother can tear it down together.” Yuan Zhou made a gesture of “please” and said.

“That’s a good relationship. It’s a good thing to tear down good wood together. ” Carpenter Lian said with a smile.

“That’s right, it’s hard to find good materials nowadays. ” Ma Xiao also nodded.

“Yes.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and didn’t say anything.

“Take out the tools and set them up, we’ll dismantle them together.” Carpenter Lian put down the small tool box in his hand and turned to Ma Xiao.

“Alright, master.” Ma Xiao nodded, then put down the tool box in his hand and the saw on his back.

Then, Ma Xiao squatted down and opened the tool box. He took out the tools to remove the outer layer of the wood.

Carpenter Lian, on the other hand, went directly to the part where Yuan Zhou had disassembled the wood. It was obvious that he was going to see what kind of wood it was.

Carpenter Lian squatted down out of habit and squinted his eyes. However, the moment he squatted down, he was greeted by a faint fragrance.

“What?” Carpenter Lian furrowed his brows doubtfully. Then, he carefully looked at the wood.

However, when he looked at the piece of wood, his squinted eyes instantly widened. He immediately lowered his head and almost pressed it against the wood on the ground.

“This, this, this is …” Even the carpenter couldn’t say anything in surprise. He just turned his head and looked at Yuan Zhou with a burning gaze.

“Master, take your time. There’s no rush.” Yuan Zhou said calmly.

“Alright, I’ll take my time.” Carpenter Lian replied in a daze. Then, he turned around and looked at the wood on the ground.

After a while, Carpenter Lian reached out his dry and rough hand to touch the wood. However, he stopped one centimeter away from the wood. He seemed to want to touch it, but he was also afraid.

Just as Carpenter Lian was struggling with his internal conflict, Ma Xiao walked to the other side of the wood where Carpenter Lian was with a tool in his hand. He bent down and was about to start working.

“Master, I’ll tear down this place.” Ma Xiao said as he prepared to take action.

“Stop, immediately stop.” Carpenter Lian almost jumped up and grabbed Ma Xiao’s hand with an impossible speed.

“Master?” Ma Xiao looked at Carpenter Lian with a dumbfounded expression. He had no idea what was going on.

“You think you can touch this thing? Get out of my way, you thick-handed thing. ” Carpenter Lian pulled the tools from Ma Xiao’s hands and glared at him.

“Uh …” Ma Xiao felt that he was being looked down upon by his master again. He didn’t even know the reason.

“Master, I’ve already dismantled half of it. I’ll definitely need to take out the rest,” said Yuan Zhou at the side.

“You opened this hole?” Carpenter Lian pointed at the exposed wood and said.

“Yes, I am.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.

“What a waste. Where did all the things I taught you go? what if you hurt the wood with your rough moves?” Carpenter Lian immediately fired off a flame.

Fortunately, Carpenter Lian was still rational. He knew that the person in front of him was his favorite last disciple, so he beat him up without even touching him.

“Ahem, why don’t you open the rest yourself, master?” Yuan Zhou touched his own forehead and then said.

“Of course I’m the one who’s going to tear it down. You guys should stay away from me.” Carpenter Lian immediately said in a bad mood.

However, before Yuan Zhou and the dumbfounded Ma Xiao left, Carpenter Lian said again,””You guys better stand closer and learn how to tear it down.”

Then, Yuan Zhou and Ma Xiao helplessly twitched the corners of their mouths at each other before they stopped one meter away from Carpenter Lian.

Even though Carpenter Lian was sure that this was the precious wood he knew, he would not dare to recognize it if he did not take it apart and see it in one piece.

It couldn’t be helped. There wasn’t any existing material for this yellow Rosewood. Even new materials were extremely rare, let alone this old material that looked like it had been there for a long time.

Even those in the collection circle had never seen such a large piece of old material. The largest one was only as thick as an arm.

However, the one in front of him was a solid heartwood that was 15 meters long and 40 centimeters in diameter. This wood could no longer be called a lot of money, but a priceless treasure.

Moreover, judging from Yuan Zhou’s manner, Carpenter Lian was afraid that the remaining three sticks on the ground were also yellow Rosewood.

“No, I can’t think about it anymore.” Carpenter Lian pressed on his heart and shifted his gaze away from the three undamaged pieces of wood on the ground. Only then did he start to focus on the one in his hand.

Although Carpenter Lian was an old man, his arms were still muscular due to his long-term carpentry work. His palms were also very big. His words were full of anger and he had a bad temper. He would curse at people without moving.

But now, he was as gentle as if he was holding his newborn child for the first time. His hands were extremely gentle, but his expression was very sincere.

Carpenter Lian’s dismantling speed was also very fast. He cut the wire without making any noise and gently removed the greasy cloth. His movements were so light that not a single piece of the rotten wood powder fell off.

Then, the whole piece of wood was presented to the first three people.

The wood was 15 meters long, and it was about 43 centimeters in length with the rotten outer skin. The wood was straight, and when it was taken apart, it gave off a light lingering wooden fragrance, like a rose with morning dew.

“F * ck! The sea. Southern Yellow Rosewood. ” Ma Xiao’s eyes widened, and he couldn’t help but take a step forward to take a closer look.

“It really is yellow Rosewood.” Carpenter Lian praised.

At that moment, the other two people besides Yuan Zhou were all staring blankly at the dismantled wood. No, it should be said that they were admiring it. After all, such a huge fragrant Rosewood was a treasure that no one had ever seen before.

Yuan Zhou, on the other hand, was quite calm and appeared to be used to it. Obviously, he had forgotten how shocked he was when he opened the package.

The courtyard was silent for quite a while. Suddenly, Carpenter Lian turned his head and looked at Yuan Zhou, saying loudly,””What kind of furniture did you ask us to make yesterday?”

Under Carpenter Lian’s aggressive and enthusiastic gaze, Yuan Zhou said in a calm and collected manner,””A large bowl holder.”

“Senior brother, are you going to hold the Golden or Jade bowls?” Ma Xiao swallowed his saliva and said.

“No, it’s just that the dishes in the restaurant need to be changed every season, and the wooden shelves are used to hold the dishes that are not in the season.” Yuan Zhou said primly.

The moment he said that, Carpenter Lian and Ma Xiao were stunned.
