"That's it, I'll give you the money when I go back..." Fang Yi did not bring cash this time. Now the bank cannot transfer money after get off work, so he can only ask Lan Lian to pay the money first.

However, Fang Yi must have to pay back the money to Lan Lian, because he felt that the jade in the raw stone he bought must be the top Hetian jade. Fang Yi did not want to feel that he was in debt to Lan Lian.

"Okay, don't be too lazy, you kid, you can go back early today..." Yu Xuan glared at Fang Yi in anger, stuffed the piece of seed on the table into his hand, and said, "Hurry up, set the shape first, let me see if you kid are bragging?"

Carving is not only a simple matter of using a carving knife to work on jade, but also requires craftsmen to have a certain foundation in painting. Just like those master-level craftsmen, their painting level is also quite high. They will formulate the best carving plan based on the shape of the jade.

"Teacher Yu, you're a little embarrassed, right?"

Seeing Yu Xuan forcing Fang Yi to carve on the spot, Gu Junshan couldn't help but say a fair word. You know, good materials like seed materials must be treated with caution even by master-level craftsmen. How could they decide the plan so quickly?

"Hey, it's not my fault. Fang Yi himself said he wanted to carve it on the spot..." When it comes to majors, Yu Xuan has always been very serious. What he doesn't think most is the bragging of someone with a low eye on it, especially in art. Today, he just wants to make things difficult for Fang Yi.

"Old Yu, don't provoke me..." After hearing Yu Xuan's words, Fang Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "Since you don't have a pity for this material, I'll carve a seal for you!"

"Okay, Fang Yi, don't brag, let's stop talking about this..."

Seeing Fang Yi still being stubborn, Yu Xuan couldn't help but shake his head, feeling very disappointed because the texture of the jade is different from that of bamboo and wood. It is very hard. It is said to be jade carving, but in fact it needs to be done through craftsmanship such as carving, grinding, grinding, and drilling. It is a fairy tale just by carving knife.

"Old Yu, you will know if you are bragging later..."

Fang Yi smiled when he heard this and rubbed the seed material with his hands. According to common sense, although it is very common to carve seals in jade, not many people use seed material to make seals.

However, this piece of seed material is strip-shaped, and the bottom feels like it is square. It is better to carve it into a seal directly if you make other objects according to the shape. What Fang Yi is now considering is to carve something on it so that the upper and lower parts are integrated.

The ancients called seals a button, and the shape on the seal was called a button ornament. The quality of a seal is not only to see whether the seal below is balanced, generous and upright, but also to see whether the button ornament is beautiful. Both are indispensable.

"Old Yu, what zodiac sign are you from?" Fang Yi thought for a while, then looked up and asked Yu Xuan. He wanted to carve a button for the twelve zodiac signs.

"I'm a horse, why do you want to carve a zodiac sign?" Yu Xuan pointed to Fang Yi and said, "Horse is difficult to carve. I advise you to carve something else..."

The shape of a horse must be carved out to look good, but carving a horse on a small seal will not look so harmonious as to the whole, but just carving a horse's head. It will look abrupt, so Yu Xuan said this.

"Then let's carve a horse. Mr. Yu is in the category of antiques and miscellaneous items, but others follow your leader!"

Fang Yi thought for a while and made it directly by the table and placed the jade on the table. He didn't need to fix the jade seal bed. He held the carving knife in his right hand and directly moved the knife on the seed material.

"You kid really dare to behave?" Yu Xuan was startled when he saw Fang Yi's actions, but before he could finish his words, his face became solemn.

Experts can naturally see whether there is any movable hand at a glance. Fang Yi's knife seemed to be not very hard, but he cut a very vertical and smooth plane directly under the seed material, which is probably not much different from what was cut by a machine.

"This... what kind of hand force is this?"

This idea also emerged in the minds of those who were familiar with the knowledge of the arts. You must know that the density and hardness of jade are not low. Modern people basically use some modern tools to carve jade. Where can I cut even the planes like Fang Yi?

With just this knife, Fang Yi shocked Yu Xuan. He had wanted to say a few strange words and immediately closed his mouth and stared at Fang Yi's hands without blinking.

"I'm from Yeluzi, don't laugh at me..."

Fang Yi said without raising his head, but the carving knife in his hand was constantly moving. In a blink of an eye, the slightly oval strip-shaped seed material had become a square shape of the seal.

Fang Yi's sword seemed very gentle, but the hard jade seemed to become fragile under his sword. The debris of the jade continued to slide down with Fang Yi's sword. In just ten minutes, the rough shape of the button decoration had already emerged.

"This... this is really a horse head..."

Although the shape is still very rough, everyone in the field can see that it is a horse with a long and neighing height, with a slender neck in the middle of the seal, and the proportion of the horse head on it is extremely coordinated, which looks very comfortable.

"Are there any drills? A small drill bit to drill holes?" After roughly carved the shape, Fang Yi put down the jade and said, "Get another basin of water, Mr. Gu? What's wrong, haven't you drilled?"

Normally, the horse head seal does not require holes to be drilled, but Fang Yi deliberately left two drilled places on the horse's nose, which would make the craftsmanship appear more exquisite, and the other one would be easier for Yu Xuan to carry in the future.

"Ah? Yes, yes, I'll get it now..." Gu Junshan, who was already stunned, woke up after being called by Fang Yi and said hurriedly: "Brother Fang, do you want the polished stuff? I have it here too..."

"Take it all, by the way, do you have a brush? If not, find a sketch pencil..."

Fang Yi used to carve objects with stones, and used all the inferior stones on the mountain. He basically threw them away after carving them. He had no time to polish them specifically. He smiled and shook his head and said, "Polishing is a meticulous job. Just turn around and ask Mr. Yu to find someone by himself..."

"Old Yu, what words are written below?" While Gu Junshan was busy preparing things, Fang Yi's eyes turned to Yu Xuan. The buttons and the words on the seal were all indispensable components on the seal.

"You boy, really surprised me. You... how old are you?"

After hearing Fang Yi's words, Yu Xuan breathed a long sigh. He really didn't expect that Fang Yi had such skills. Although the seal had not yet been formed, even from Fang Yi's techniques, Yu Xuan could see that he had worked hard in carving these skills for at least ten years.

"Old Yu, when others play with mud, I'm just playing with things..."

Fang Yi laughed when he heard this. Others thought Fang Yi was learning carving, but in fact, only Fang Yi knew that the old Taoist priest asked him to carve things, but in fact he was teaching himself to carve array pictures. The difficulty of this thing is comparable to micro-carving, which is much more complicated than Fang Yi's current techniques.

"The following text, just make Yu Zi'ang, Zi'ang is my word..."

Seeing the semi-finished product carved by Fang Yi, Yu Xuan no longer had the joking mentality he had before, but earnestly reported his own words, which means that this seal will become a private seal that Yu Xuan will use in the future.

"Fang Yi, I've finished carving for him. You can also carve a seal for me..." Before Fang Yi could answer, Sun Lianda suddenly said, "I have a good Shoushan stone in my house and a few blood stones. Go back and see which one is suitable. Make a seal for me as well..."

When it comes to the materials for making seals, jade is not the best. Sun Lianda's family has collected a lot of seal stones. After seeing Fang Yi's craftsmanship, he couldn't help but speak. From Sun Lianda's perspective, Fang Yi's jade carving technique is no less than those masters.

"Hehe, the teacher asks for an apprentice, it's rare..." After hearing Sun Lianda's words, Yu Xuan smiled and joked.

"What's wrong? No? Be careful, Fang Yi will cut the knife a little bit, and destroy your seal..." Sun Lianda's old face was a little uncomfortable when Yu Xuan said, and immediately glared at Yu Xuan and threatened with words.

"No, don't interfere, Fang Yi, don't listen to your teacher..."

Yu Xuan was really shocked when he heard Sun Lianda say this. As an old-fashioned person, although Yu Xuan has many seals on his hand, none of his seals can compare with Fang Yi's semi-finished product in terms of carvings.
