Ye Laosan said, "Let's give it a try," and his hands immediately started moving.
He quickly carved out the rough outline of the wood.
This was the first time Qi Menghui had seen such a drastic technique, and he became increasingly doubtful about whether he could handle the increasingly delicate operations that followed.
Who would have thought that during the brief moment when he was distracted, the small wooden block had actually taken shape in Ye Lao San's hands.
"this……"
Qi Menghui was shocked. This hand was too fast. Wasn't he afraid that he would cut the wrong place?
But Ye Laosi was already immersed in it at this time and did not notice Qi Menghui's surprise at all.
He had carefully observed the part and studied the piece of wood beforehand, and he already had a plan in mind. All he had to do now was cut accurately.
Qi Menghui was more and more shocked as he watched from behind. Ye Laosan's hands were very steady, although both the way he held the knife and the way he cut were different from what the supervisor taught him.
But he acted decisively, and every cut was perfect, never lingering over and over again on one spot.
As the sawdust fell, the surface carving was quickly completed.
Ye Laosan did not continue to polish the surface of the part, but instead changed a tool and prepared to start hollowing out its interior.
This step is more difficult than the previous one.
Even Ye Laosan felt a little unsure.
But through his own thinking, he was able to achieve some results bit by bit.
Qi Menghui was so excited that his heart almost jumped out of his throat. Isn't this almost done?
But just when he thought victory was in sight, a sudden knock on the door scared both of them.
Qi Menghui quickly asked: "Who, who?"
"Brother Qi, aren't you going to eat?" Another apprentice's voice came from outside the door.
Qi Menghui breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Go ahead. I'm not hungry yet. I plan to take a nap first."
"Okay, then you can have a rest. I won't disturb you anymore." The person outside the door didn't have any suspicions and left quickly.
But when Qi Menghui turned around, he found that Ye Laosan had thrown aside the gadget that was 80% completed, and picked up another piece of wood to start carving again.
"What's wrong?" Qi Menghui's heart tightened, and he quickly picked up the little gadget that was thrown aside and took a closer look.
"I was startled by a knock on the door just now, and it was exposed, so it can't be used anymore." Ye Lao San explained very calmly, "But it will be faster this time, don't worry."
Qi Menghui wanted to kneel down to him. Is this an urgent matter?
But it turned out that Ye Lao San's knife speed was faster and more accurate than before.
The first time I only dared to chip it off a little bit, but the second time I was even more daring.
This precise control is simply terrifying.
Qi Menghui was silently thinking about the several masters who would be in charge of the work.
The only one who can match Ye Laosan's knife skills is Master Liu.
The reason why Ye Lao San suffered was because he lacked knowledge.
No wonder the Qin family spent money to send him in to broaden his horizons.
I don’t know where they found this treasure.
Although he came from a self-taught background and is a bit older, if the masters saw his current appearance, they would definitely compete to accept him as their disciple.
While Qi Menghui was daydreaming, Ye Laosan had completed the surface carving for the second time and began to hollow it out carefully.
This time, Qi Menghui watched intently from the side, fearing that his heavy breathing would affect Ye Lao San's performance.
Fortunately, this time there was no danger. I quickly hollowed out the inside, carefully polished the surface, and installed it on the incense burner.
"Let's try it and see if it works." Ye Lao San rubbed his sore shoulders and said to Qi Menghui.
Qi Menghui had already prepared the incense, lit it and placed it on top.
Ye Laosan watched in surprise. As the incense was lit, the smoke did not rise upwards as he had seen before.
And as if it was sucked down by something, it quickly filled up the holes carved out of the mountain, creating the feeling that the mountain was shrouded in clouds and mist.
And several small parts halfway up the mountain did indeed begin to shake slowly as the smoke increased.
"It worked, it really worked!" Qi Menghui's eyes widened, almost popping out of his head. "It actually worked!"
Seeing the parts that Ye Laosan had just installed also swaying gently, he was so excited that he burst into tears again.
Now that’s good, I don’t have to be punished by the master, I don’t have to pay compensation, and I won’t be kicked out of the house by my father.
Qi Menghui was very excited, but Ye Laosan was not satisfied.
Because he found that the part he made did not shake as much as the other parts.
It seems that not enough has been emptied out.
Because he was afraid of taking things out again, Ye Lao San was a little gentler this time, but it seemed that it still didn't work.
He removed the part again and continued to insert the tool to process it carefully.
"It's good enough that it can move. There's no need to be so demanding." Qi Menghui watched his every move nervously, afraid that he would break it again.
Fortunately, his worries were unnecessary. Ye Laosan quickly stopped what he was doing and put the small part back in place.
This time it looks much more comfortable, with almost no difference.
Qi Menghui is now full of admiration for Ye Lao San.
He knew that the Qin family did not keep idle people.
How could someone who is worthy of being sent to the Military Engineering Department to broaden his horizons not have some skills?
Qi Menghui extinguished the incense, wiped the incense burner carefully, and wrapped it up again.
"Third brother, please sit in my room for a while. I'll secretly send this back and then come back to find you."
