Chapter 394 Carved Jade

When he arrived in the city, Bai Lei parted ways with Chen Ran and drove his new car back to the provincial capital happily. After Chen Ran and Bai Lei separated, he went to the sword factory.

"How's it? Are you used to it?"

Mu honestly took people to purchase raw materials. Chen Ran did not go in when he arrived at the sword factory. He directly took Wang Liang to the car. After the off-road vehicle was on the road, the two chatted.

"Habit, Uncle Mu is very kind to me, but I don't understand many things..." Wang Liang said with some embarrassment, as if he had failed Chen Ran's expectations.

"Don't worry. Learn slowly if you don't understand. Just get started."

Hearing Wang Liang's words, Chen Ran was relieved. He was also worried that Wang Liang would be blind if he held the position of factory director like this. Now it seems that Wang Liang is obviously not that kind of person.

"Yes, I will definitely get started as soon as possible, Chen Ran, thank you very much."

Wang Liang was sincerely grateful. Although he knew that it was a little difficult to say thank you for his relationship with Chen Ran, he couldn't help thanking Chen Ran. He imagined that these days were really dreamy, and the person who brought him all these changes was Chen Ran. He didn't know how to thank Chen Ran, so he could only Express his gratitude with a thank you.

"Thank you, Xiaoliang, don't say that in the future. Well, I'll take you to the bookstore to buy you some books. You can take time to have a look when you are free during this period..."

Chen Ran waved his hand carelessly. He didn't pay much attention to Wang Liang's thanks. He was a nostalgic person. He remembered who was good to him. He used to have no conditions, but now that he has conditions, he naturally wants to repay those who have been sincerely good to him as much as possible. In fact, for him, The satisfaction of gratitude is not a kind of enjoyment.

Wang Liang had hardly been exposed to the sword industry before, so he also wanted to buy some materials to read. Chen Ran said that he would go to the bookstore to buy books for him, but he was in his heart, and now he was full of promise.

Chen Ran parked his car at the door of the bookstore and let the bully stay in the car to watch the car. He took Wang Liang into the bookstore. Coincidentally, he entered the bookstore that happened to be the bookstore where he met the school beauty of Mu for the first time.

Entering this bookstore, Chen Ran couldn't help but recall the scene at that time, and a faint sense of warmth rose in his heart. Although it was light, it was very full.

Chen Ran selected several books about ancient swords for Wang Liang. Because there are several relatively large sword factories in Tianzhong City, there is quite a lot of information about ancient swords in the bookstore. In addition to Chen Ran's selection, Wang Liang also selected several books that he is interested in.

After the bill, he left the bookstore and returned to the villa. Wang Liang plunged into the sea of books, and Chen Ran also read the book for a while. The book he read was about gambling stones brought back from the old man and the association, although with his energy aperture, he could see whether there was a clear whether the original stone was inside. There is jade, but it is better to know more about these professional knowledge. In this way, it can at least make some cover for his powers and not cause others to suspect. Just like now he picks up leaks on antiques, no matter how many leaks he picks up, no one will doubt other aspects. After all, his identity Here, the gambling stone is undoubtedly the same. First of all, he has the status of executive vice president of the Jade Association, and with some professional knowledge, even if he gambles a few more times, no one will doubt him. He will only think that he is more experienced.

In a word, everything is to avoid the secret of the power. Of course, it is not all for this reason. Learning something is undoubtedly of great benefit to your vision and mentality.

As soon as Chen Ran read the book for a while, Zhang Shuchun called. The batch of jade-making tools he asked Zhang Shuchun to order for him yesterday was sent directly to the door by this guy.

Hanging up Zhang Shuchun's phone, Chen Ran called the doorman of the villa, and then came to the door of the villa and picked them up. The goods were sent by Zhang Shuchun himself.

"Chairman Chen, is this the golden house you bought? Let me have a good time first. Oh, this villa is really luxurious. Not to mention 20 million, no matter how much money it is, it is worth it. I don't want to live in my pig's nest when I see your golden nest.

Chen Ran opened the door of the villa and saw Zhang Shuchun waiting at the door. Before he could say hello, this guy couldn't wait to walk into the villa and looked at the villa first. Obviously, this guy also knew the idea of the previous owner of the villa. After taking a look, he envied him very much. Although he has long heard that this villa is the most expensive villa in the city, and the decoration of the villa is extremely luxurious, but now that he has seen it with his own eyes, he is still a little shocked by the elegance and luxury of this villa.

Chen Ran stared at Zhang Shuchun angrily and ignored him. He greeted the driver driving a minivan to send all the equipment to the storage room by the garden.

When the driver heard the words, he drove the car according to Chen Ran's instructions.

"Mr. Chen, do you need any help?" Seeing that a truck came to Chen Ran's villa, which was obviously delivered, several security guards on duty rushed over and enthusiastically wanted to help.

"Ha ha, no, there are not many things."

Chen Ran waved his hand and politely refused their kindness. He didn't want much equipment, just some auxiliary tools. There was no need to bother these security guards. Although he said he didn't want their help, these security guards still enthusiastically helped to remove the tools.

"Lao Zhang, how much are these devices?"

After sending the delivery driver and several enthusiastic security guards out of the villa, Chen Ran checked the equipment one by one. The equipment was ordered according to the model he requested, so he was also quite satisfied with the equipment. After checking, he asked about the price of this batch of equipment. The equipment was made by Zhang Shuchun. He simply gave the money directly to Zhang Shuchun.

"Chairman Chen, with our relationship, forget about the money. I asked my acquaintances to get it, but I didn't spend much money." Zhang Shuchun waved his hand carelessly. The equipment Chen Ran wanted was all auxiliary equipment, which was really not worth much.

"Lao Zhang..."

Chen Ran shook his head helplessly. This guy has a criminal record, so he is always a little worried about this guy. It's better to figure out things about money with him to avoid any trouble.

"Yes, Chairman Chen, you can give 30,000 yuan. Of course, if you give tens of thousands more, you are a big local tycoon, and you are all regarded as a local tycoon." Zhang Shuchun smiled, but he was also interesting. Knowing that Chen Ran's temper did not compete with Chen Ran.

"Bright, didn't you want me to carve a pair of bracelets for you? Have you brought the material?"

Chen Ran directly wrote a check of 30,000 yuan and handed it to him. Thinking of this guy's request for his own affairs, he asked.

"Alas, don't mention it. I haven't chosen the material yet. There are no good materials in the market now, not to mention the high-end ones, but I can't find the middle and lower grades. I'm going to go to Nandu in the next two days." Hearing Chen Ran ask about this, Zhang Shuchun suddenly made a face. It was not easy to ask Chen Ran to make a move, so he wanted to find a better material. As a result, he contacted many jade merchants and said that they were out of stock. Some even wanted him to help contact the source of goods, which made him very angry.

Chen Ran knew that what he said was also true. Thinking that he was going to Tengchong, he said to him, "You don't have to go to Nandu. I will take someone to Tengchong in two days to help you pay attention to it."

Teng Chong? President Chen, are you going to Tengchong in a couple of days?

Hearing Chen Ran suddenly say that he was going to Tengchong, Zhang Shuchun was suddenly surprised. When he was surprised, he muttered in his heart. Did Chairman Chen gamble once in Laomai's place and was addicted to gambling and want to try his luck in Tengchong?

When Chen Ran saw his appearance, he couldn't guess what he was thinking. He stared at him angrily and told him what the old man had told him.

After Zhang Shuchun heard what Chen Ran said, he was excited for a while and kept asking questions. Chen Ran originally planned to have a meeting in the association tomorrow to mention this matter, but now he saw Zhang Shuchun and just told him to settle down so that he could arrange it in advance.

After Zhang Shuchun was told, Zhang Shuchun happily returned to the association to arrange, which made Chen Ran worry-free.

After sending Zhang Shuchun away, Chen Ran first went to see Wang Liang. Seeing that he was still reading, he did not disturb him. He went back to his room and took out Kunwu's knife and the pink beauty's agate material.

The processing process of jade is generally divided into material selection, design, engraving and polishing. Now that the material is already available, there is no need to select materials, just design it directly.

Chen Ran had already thought about this step in his mind as early as yesterday, so there is no need to spend time imagining it.

However, before using the knife, Chen Ran still practiced the eight-knife split wave carving method for a while to find a feeling. To be honest, this was the first time he carved jade with such a valuable material, which made him have to treat it carefully.

Unexpectedly, when Chen Ran was practicing the eight-knife split wave carving method to find a feeling, his eight-knife split wave carving method actually made a breakthrough, and this breakthrough was not small, directly from one knife and two methods to one to four methods.

The eight-knife split wave carving method suddenly made such a great progress. Although it was a little unexpected, in fact, it was also in his expectation.

The most difficult step in practicing the eight-knife split wave carving method is the initial bottleneck, that is, from one knife, one method to the bottleneck of one knife and two methods. Before the loss of the eight knife split wave carving method, there were still many jade sculptors practicing this method of carving, but most jade sculptors stopped on this bottleneck. It is difficult to break through for life. Only by breaking through this bottleneck can you really learn the eight-knife division carving method.

Break through from one knife and one method to one knife and two methods. Obviously, it depends on talent and understanding to break through this bottleneck, which is also the reason why many jade sculptors stop at this bottleneck. After breaking through this bottleneck, one knife and two methods succeed, then the next step is one knife and three methods. Generally speaking, as long as the window paper is broken, it should be from one knife, two methods to one knife and three methods, but in fact, from one knife and two methods to one knife and three methods is not so simple.

With the practice of eight knife and wave carving, Chen Ran also has a clear understanding, that is, after breaking through the initial bottleneck, he wants to break from one knife and two methods to one knife and three methods, and even from one knife and three methods to one knife and four methods, what he needs is the physical quality of the jade sculptor, as long as the physical quality of the jade sculptor reaches one The standard of the three methods can break through from one knife and two methods to one knife and three methods, and if you reach the standard of one knife and four methods, you can enter the realm of one knife and four methods accordingly.

The reason why Chen Ran can have such an understanding is naturally related to the growth of his physical quality. After practicing the strange dance, his physical quality has been constantly improving and his physical quality has been constantly improving. When he practices the eight-knife wave carving method, he can obviously feel the difference. That's why there is such a clear understanding that the physical quality of those jade sculptors who practiced the eight-knife division wave carving method in history has basically not changed much in their lives, so they have not realized this, even ancient jade is no exception.

Gu Yu was already an adult when she practiced the eight-knife split wave carving method. In his prime, she was in good health and practiced the eight-knife split wave carving method to the realm of one knife and five methods. Later, as he grew older, he became powerless and practiced other carving methods. From beginning to end, he did not realize that he The reason why he can't break through the eight-knife wave carving method is due to his physical fitness.

Of course, it does not mean that if your physical quality reaches the standard of one knife and three methods, you can enter the realm of one knife and three methods. In this way, as long as you have good physical fitness, you can become a carving master. Obviously, this is not the case. Good physical fitness is a prerequisite. You must have this premise before breaking through. That can't be broken through.

With the practice of strange dance, Chen Ran's physical quality has been greatly improved during this period, especially his physical flexibility and sensitivity, and these are exactly the two points that the jade sculptor is most needed to practice the eight-knife split wave carving method.

With these two points, the proficiency has also arrived, and Chen Ran's breakthrough has come to an end.

Although it was expected, the eight-knife split wave carving method went directly from one knife and two methods to the level of one knife and four methods, which still surprised Chen Ran. This is undoubtedly enough to show that his guess is correct. There is a strange dance in hand. As long as he has been practicing strange dances diligently to improve the quality of his body, the eight It seems that it is not impossible to practice the knife split wave carving method to the point of one knife and eight waves carving method. Even if you can't practice the eight knife wave carving method to the extreme, it will at least not be worse than ancient jade.

After the practice of one knife and eight methods...

Chen Ran couldn't help but think of the unknown master who taught the ancient jade carving method. The unknown master's carving method has three layers, and the eight-blade split wave carving method is only the first layer. I really don't know what the jade carved in the last two layers will look like.

In the past, Chen Ran had no hope for practicing the eight-knife split wave carving method to the extreme, and he didn't dare to imagine the carving method after practicing the eight knife split wave carving method. Now after confirming his speculation, he also has a little hope, so he can't help it. Imagine it.

Of course, Chen Ran didn't think much about it. The unknown master did not pass on the complete carving method to Gu Yu. Naturally, he could not learn it. He could only imagine it out of thin air.

Break through to one knife and four methods. When Chen Ran practiced the eight-knife split wave carving method, the feeling was really different. In the past, when he was at the level of one knife and two methods, it was almost impossible to compare with now. It is not too much to say that there is a world of difference, as if he was bored in the water for a long time and suddenly came out of the water, but It is said to be refreshing and completed in one go, and there is no longer any sense of difficulty. The most important thing is that the control of the overall situation is also more convenient. As we all know, when carving jade with eight knives, once you use the knife, you can no longer stop. In this way, the control of the overall situation is undoubtedly very important.

This refreshing feeling made Chen Ran unconsciously completely immersed in it. If it hadn't been for a sudden phone call to interrupt him, I'm afraid he would have forgotten to practice...
