Chapter 047 Selling Jade

For a whole day, Chen Ran was doing the same action non-stop. After doing it for a long time, he did not feel boring at all.

His progress was very fast, which surprised him a little. For the first time, he doubted whether he was actually quite talented in carving jade.

At the end of the day, Chen Ran can not only perform the full set of movements skillfully, and although the whole process cannot be said to be smooth, it is at least in one go, and the movements are also very standard.

After Chen Ran was able to skillfully complete all the movements, he began to try real exercises.

Chen Ran stood quietly in front of a huge marble with a carving knife in his hand.

I have to say that the jade sculptor is actually a very expensive profession. Although Chen Ran is not too poor now, he is not luxurious enough to practice with jade at the time of practice, and there is no need at all. Moreover, he has only begun to practice drawing circles now. There is no doubt that the larger the materials he needs, the better. In this way, a large piece of Li Shi is undoubtedly the right choice.

Chen Ran looked at the marble with as attentively as when he carved jade.

With a little expectation and curiosity, Chen Ran took a deep breath.

Then he moved!

His body began to move!

Chen Ran's body was like a snake, and one strange action after another danced with the trajectory of the carving knife in his hand. The whole picture gave people a strange feeling, quite like a folk dancer.

Cangling...

The sound of carving knives and marble hitting resounded throughout the room, and the sound was very rhythmic, as if playing a piano symphony.

Eagle flying rabbit leaving, sunrise and evening...

Time was lost so quietly. In the blink of an eye, three or four days were gone. Within these four days, Chen Ran never went out except after going to the Jade Sculpture School. He stayed in the room to practice the eight-knife splitting knife.

The next day, Fatty Luo gave all the certificates to Chen Ran, and the place to participate in the Jade Sculpture Competition was also reported. He also gave Chen Ran the opportunity to attend the cram school. Chen Ran also went to attend a class.

To be honest, Chen Ran was a little disappointed about this cram school. He thought that the lecturer would teach some experience in jade appreciation. Who knew that this was not the case at all. What the lecturer said was completely to let the students cope with the literary examination in the competition. These things are all in books, and there is no experience at all. Of.

Chen Ran went to listen to the class all morning and never went there again. He doesn'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 participated in the Jade Sculpture Competition and just wanted to test his carving ability and level before getting the eight-knife split wave knife method, then after getting the eight-knife split wave knife method, the idea became a little different.

Chen Ran is not blind. He did not have the eight-knife division knife method. Participating in the jade carving competition, he knew very well that he could only be a foil, and now with the eight-knife division knife method, his idea naturally changed.

Jade Sculpture Competition, if you don't participate, you won't participate, and you will be amazing!

And now what he needs to do is to practice, and then practice... Try to practice the eight-knife knife to a certain extent before the arrival of the competition.

Originally, the time was quite tight, but the identity of the students of the Jade Sculpture Competition gave Chen Ran some time. The Jade Sculpture Competition is the preliminary competition on March 3, and the students of the Jade Sculpture School do not need to participate in the preliminary competition, so that there will be more time.

In the past four days, it can be said that Chen Ran has made great progress and can no longer be described as great. It can only be said that the progress is amazing!

In the room, Chen Ran is now completely immersed in the eight-blade split-wave knife method. He saw him holding a carving knife in his hand, as if he was careless, as if he waved casually, and as if he had no intention to throw it. The carving knife elegantly drew almost perfect circles in mid-air.

Every time a circle is drawn, a circular mark will be left on the marble. Although this circle is not bad at all, it is not much wrong with the one drawn with a compass at a glance.

The cold and shining carving knife is like a beating note, playing beautiful music in the hands of Chen Ran, a musician.

Every time Chen Ran waved his hand, he would bring out a piece of dust, like a snowflake, falling leisurely in the air, and a three-inch thick marble in front of Chen Ran had been polished to less than an inch thick by him, and a thick layer of stone powder had fallen under his feet.

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

Because Chen Ran's eyes are covered with a piece of black cloth, he doesn't look at the marble in front of him at all. With a knife, circles of different sizes appear on the marble.

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

Time passed unconsciously... 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, I found a strange pattern in front of me.

One circle after another, and these circles are connected one after another, dense, and at a glance, it actually gives people a feeling of dizziness!

At this time, Chen Ran, who was blindfolded, suddenly squatted on the ground. He tried to slowly take off the black cloth on his eyes, but saw that his face was pale, as if he had been a serious illness, and drops of sweat kept flowing down his face.

Although he is very tired, very tired and sleepy, Chen Ran's eyes are shining with crystal light, and his physical fatigue can not offset his spiritual satisfaction. At this time, he has finally completed the first step of the eight-knife knife method!

I have to say that if Gu Yu, lying in the coffin, learned that Chen Ran had practiced this step in less than seven days, he would have been surprised to sit up from the coffin, because it was this step that he spent three months day and night. Even so, the circle he drew did not have the circle drawn by Chen Ran. Standard.

The main reason for this is that Gu Yu did not have the advantage of Chen Ran now. Just like Gu Yu did not have Chen Ran's unforgettable memory ability, and no one performed for him in front of him. The roundness of the painting mainly depends on the standard of the body's movements.

Gu Yu doesn't know how long it took to become more and more standard, and now Chen Ran is directly using the fruits of his later years's labor.

At this time, Chen Ran turned his head and looked at the jade material placed on the wooden table, which seemed to vaguely contain--

One point of curiosity, three points of expectation, six points of self-confidence!

......

Carrying a black plastic bag, Chen Ran stepped into the antique city of Zhongdu. Only when he entered it, he looked at a store with a jade garden sign. Obviously, this is a store specializing in jade.

In the past, Chen Ran also came to the store to see it, but at that time, he just took a look and glanced at the store, and Chen Ran walked over to the jade store.

Entering the store, there is a booth about one meter high, on which there is a cabbage completely carved from jade, which looks green and bright, extremely pleasant.

Maybe it's because of Saturday, there are still many guests in the store. Chen Ran looked at the four counters placed in circles. Most of the jade here are low-range materials, mainly earrings, rings, pendants, jade pendants and bracelets. On the main counter, there are also two large pieces, one is the God of Wealth and the other is Sailboats don't look like they are sold. They should be customized by customers. Now they are here for exhibition.

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

"Hello, sir, what kind of jade do you want to buy? Or what are you going to buy for? If there is nothing on the counter that you are satisfied with, I can try my best to help you find a jade that can satisfy you!"

There are three people selling jade in the store, two women and one man, and two women, all of whom are little girls in work clothes. One stands at the door as etiquette, and the other stands in the counter, while the man is a middle-aged man with a golden eyes, responsible for explaining to customers. Chen Ran walked to the counter, and the little girl in the counter smiled sweetly and greeted Chen Ran.

"I'm sorry, I'm not here to buy jade. I want to ask, do you collect jade in your store?" Chen Ran shook his head and asked directly.

"Jade collector?"

Chen Ran's words stunned the little girl, and then shook her head hesitantly. This is the first time she has encountered such a thing. To be honest, she doesn't know whether to accept jade or not, but she should not. She has only been in the store for a month, but she has never received jade in this month. .

"I'm sorry, sir, we only sell jade here, not jade!"

"Well, forget it. I'm sorry to bother you!"

Chen Ran is not the first time he has experienced such a thing, and he is not disappointed. This family doesn't accept it. If he changes his family, he will turn around and leave.

"What's going on?"

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

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

When the little girl heard the middle-aged man's inquiry, she hurriedly replied. When she answered, she seemed to be a little worried that she would make a mistake, and Chen Ran also stopped and looked at Manager Qi. What happened here also attracted the attention of some guests and glanced here a few times.

"Jade collector?"

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