Gu Xuan transmigrated into the body of a freshman university student on Blue Star. He acquired the Paradise on Earth System and began transforming a piece of land into a paradise. The area of this ...
Gu Xuan remained calm.
"I can also make some musical instruments. Okay, let's start making them now."
As he spoke, he picked up a bamboo stick, ready to get to work.
He was about to pick up the knife.
Then you can see the bullet comments.
"Brother Xuan, what's the white jade used for?"
'I'm curious too.'
'Is it some kind of accessory again?'
'It looks quite long; it's probably not meant to be used as an accessory.'
'Yes. '
Seeing these comments.
Gu Xuan replied with a smile.
"This piece of white jade is also used to make flutes and xiao (vertical flutes)."
The fans were even more shocked when they heard this.
'No way, Brother Xuan is so extravagant.'
'That's truly extravagant; to make flutes and xiao (vertical bamboo flutes) from white jade—I can't even imagine it.'
It's still such a complete piece.
'On the surface, this piece of white jade has no cracks whatsoever; it's very rare to find one like it.'
'There are indeed no cracks, but this piece of white jade isn't quite pure.'
'But it's big.'
Everyone was arguing.
The fans quickly changed the subject.
"We'll first make a short flute from this green bamboo. The short flute can be used as an accessory or as a musical instrument."
Then he cut off a piece with a knife.
Then I carefully trimmed the edges with a knife.
After the edges were finished, the interior was made, which required opening it up and ensuring that the interior was smooth.
Use a round knife to break through all the internal obstructions.
I then made some careful revisions.
Finally, there's the hole.
The drilling process is very particular.
Carefully measure and make a hole.
The work was completed quickly.
I've made some careful revisions.
The complete xiao (vertical bamboo flute) is now finished.
Gu Xuan demonstrated it in the live stream.
"It's done, everyone take a look."
'Brother Xuan is still so fast.'
'Yes, that's really fast.'
'It's really fast, much faster.'
'Much faster than me.'
'Too fast.'
Seeing these comments, Gu Xuan was speechless.
"I'm fast at carving, but I'm not fast at everything."
Yes, yes, yes.
"Brother Xuan is right."
I saw the newly appeared bullet comments.
This also made Gu Xuan feel uneasy.
"I'm not talking to you anymore, let's get on with it."
Continue using the remaining bamboo to make it.
They also stopped paying attention to the live stream.
A bamboo stalk was used up quickly.
Gu Xuan picked up the short flute he had made and gently played a tune.
This was something the fans didn't expect.
What's even more astonishing is the tone of the flute.
Many of the people in the live stream are learning music.
"Brother Xuan, how did you manage to produce such a beautiful tone on your flute?"
"It's really good. I've searched for a long time and haven't found a flute with such a beautiful tone."
"Brother Xuan, sell me a bamboo shoot."
'And me, I study music.'
Suddenly, many fans emerged who wanted to buy bamboo.
The bamboo used in Gu Xuan is very precious.
This bamboo is similar to evergreen bamboo; it remains green even when it loses moisture. It is precisely because of this green color that its voice is exceptionally pleasant.
However, Gu Xuan did not want to sell the bamboo directly.
He said to his fans.
“These bamboos cannot be sold to outsiders, but you can buy flutes or xiao.”
The initially disappointed fans became interested after hearing Gu Xuan's words.
Is what Brother Xuan said true?
'If it's true, I'll buy it as soon as it's available; I desperately need it.'
Gu Xuan also explained.
"It will indeed be sold to the public, but you'll have to wait until the event ends."
We still have to wait.
What if I don't want to wait?
Gu Xuan had no better solution, so he spoke directly.
"You can also come to the event in person; the event will conclude with a display and sale of some handicrafts."
Gu Xuan's words completely ignited the live stream.
"Brother Xuan, I want to go to the handicrafts shop."
'I want to go too; there are many things there that I want.'
Yes, many traditional handicrafts are very beautiful.
Gu Xuan said that on purpose.
This can also pique the interest of fans.
However, the specific details will not be disclosed.
The information revealed by Gu Xuan did indeed have an effect.
Many fans have a special fondness for handicrafts.
News of the handicrafts also spread quickly.
Gu Xuan was still making his move.
All the remaining bamboo was processed into finished products.
Besides cyan, there is also purple.
After making the flute and xiao, the next step is to make the guqin and pipa.
As for the jade flute and jade pipe, those will be made last.
Watching Gu Xuan take action.
The fans continued to watch.
The making of the guqin and pipa is relatively more complicated.
Gu Xuan has always made these.
First, make the shape, and then add some decorations.
These decorations are made of very fine jade, gemstones, and coral.
Finally, the strings are installed.
This step is rather complicated.
After installation, Gu Xuan even gave it a try.
The sound produced by the guqin is very beautiful, just like the sound of flowing water in the mountains.
Fans were captivated by the sounds of the guqin.
'That reputation sounds too good.'
'Indeed, it's wonderful to have such a guqin.'
'That stuff upstairs isn't cheap.'
'These materials are no ordinary ones.'
'It should be made from ancient wood; I see grain patterns on it.'
'These markings look like an animal to me.'
This fan's words have piqued the curiosity of many people.
'That's true.'
'I saw it too, it looks like a phoenix.'
'The phoenix? It must have been carved by Brother Xuan.'
'It doesn't look like a sculpture.'
Gu Xuan saw the comments and immediately explained.
"The patterns you see are not carved; they are naturally formed."
"Is Brother Xuan fake? How can wood grow with phoenix patterns?"
"It's definitely fake; it was carved by Brother Xuan."
'I think so too.'
Gu Xuan continued.
"No need to guess, this piece of wood is called Phoenix Pattern Wutong Wood. It naturally forms phoenix patterns as it grows, hence the name Phoenix Pattern Wutong Wood. It is also an ancient piece of wood, over a thousand years old."
After hearing Gu Xuan's explanation, the fans were shocked.
'Wow, they really do have this kind of wood.'
"This phoenix pattern is really beautiful, Brother Xuan, sell it to me for a piece."
'The phoenix pattern is truly beautiful.'
Fans are no longer focusing on the guqin (a traditional Chinese stringed instrument), but are instead becoming interested in the wood itself.
Gu Xuan said.
"It's no use for you to buy it. Although this kind of wood is rare, its uses are very limited. It's mainly used to make musical instruments, so don't even think about buying it. It's pointless."
Gu Xuan's words dissuaded many people from having the idea.
But there are still people who want to buy it.
Gu Xuan glanced at a few at random.
These people are from companies that specialize in making musical instruments.
They ignored them.
Gu Xuan then began making a pipa.
The making of the pipa is also not simple.
Get the hang of all the tools.
By the time I finished, the whole morning had passed.
Gu Xuan took a sip of tea.
Instead of going to eat, they continued making food.
After finishing, I tried it again.
"Very good, and the voice is nice too."
Every instrument Gu Xuan makes is a very good one.
They can be sold for very high prices outside.
Put the guqin and pipa aside.
Finally, we prepared to make jade flutes and jade xiao (vertical flutes).
