Both pieces of material have been dried in the shade for many years, and they look better than the one Lu Yuguo bought himself.
I don’t know where the experts and professors found the materials.
"Just these two?" Yang Shijing took a look and said, "They're both small-leaf red sandalwood. Why not try some new materials?"
Lu Yuguo smiled and shook his head, saying, "I've only used this kind of material before, and I also like red sandalwood. I'll try it again when I have a chance."
"Okay." Yang Shijing nodded, glanced at the restoration room, and pointed to a workbench in the middle.
"That workbench is yours for now. You can start working there. It's in a perfect spot. If we have any questions while we're working, it'll be convenient for you to ask."
"Okay, thank you Mr. Yang." Lu Yuguo took the two pieces of materials and went to the operating table in the middle.
He glanced at the experts and professors. Several of them had already selected the materials and were ready to start making the pipa.
Lu Yuguo first found some tools and then marked the size and outline of the materials.
While he was working, he heard the experts and professors discussing the border Zerg with concern.
One expert said: "I have a nephew who does business at the border. I was still in touch with him a few days ago, but we lost contact these past two days. I don't know how he is doing now."
"It's probably because the signal is bad. If a war is about to start, the military will block some signals." Professor Zhao said.
Yang Shijing also said: "Don't worry, isn't General Meng over there? With him around, there shouldn't be any problems."
The expert said, "I know that with General Meng here, the overall direction will definitely be fine, but I can't guarantee minor issues or accidents."
"That's true. I heard that there were space pirates taking advantage of the situation to rob people." said Professor Chi.
Professor Li then said, "Are there pirates taking advantage of the situation? I heard that the discovery of the Zerg this time was reported by the pirates."
Professor Chi heard Professor Li showing off his gossip again.
He thought for a moment and said, "Just because the pirates report the incident doesn't mean they won't take advantage of the situation to rob. Besides, there are differences between big pirates and small pirates. Some big pirates have a broad perspective, but the small pirates don't care about the Zerg Empire."
The expert nodded and said, "Yes, I'm just worried about this accident. I don't know how long it will take to clean up those Zerg."
Yang Shijing said, "It shouldn't take long. I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very concerned about the situation at the border and might even go there to supervise the troops. Everyone, relax."
After he finished speaking, he subconsciously glanced at Lu Yuguo, only to see that Lu Yuguo was concentrating on drawing the logo, and seemed to be really not interested in His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Although Lu Yuguo was not interested, others were very interested.
Professor Li asked, "Mr. Yang, what did the Crown Prince say when he met you last time? Did you receive any news?"
"How can I receive any news?"
Yang Shijing said with a smile: "I was very honored to have the audience with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince last time and to receive a few words of encouragement from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"How did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince encourage you?" Professor Li still wanted to know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had said to Mr. Yang.
Yang Shijing glanced at Professor Li, but didn't reply. Instead, he smiled and said, "You may not be able to imagine how handsome His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is."
He subconsciously glanced at Lu Yuguo again, and seeing that he still had no reaction, Yang Shijing continued.
"I didn't expect His Royal Highness to be so handsome and tall. His temperament is also intimidating yet friendly. He is also very easy to talk to. I really didn't expect His Royal Highness to be like this."
Professor Li noticed Yang Shijing's subtle look. This was the second time. He was a little confused, but thinking of the news that he didn't know whether it was true or not, he cooperated and asked.
"How was it? Although I wasn't able to meet him last time, I was able to accompany him to view the cultural relics. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very handsome, but it was a pity that I didn't get to chat with him for a while."
Professor Chi followed suit and said, "Yes, how is it? I want to know too. It was such a pity last time that I didn't even see the Crown Prince from the front, only his back. Old Yang, can you tell us more about it?"
Next, Yang Shijing began to flatter His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in various ways.
Lu Yuguo couldn't help but glance at Mr. Yang. Although he hadn't looked at them before, Lu Yuguo was sitting in the middle and his hearing was very good, so he couldn't help but hear it.
Now, listening to Mr. Yang's flattery, he thought that there was no need to do this. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not here, and he can't hear you even if you keep praising him.
However, he was also a little curious. If the Crown Prince went to the border, would the selection of concubines be cancelled?
Or, even if a beautiful girl is chosen, it is possible that, like three years ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not like anyone and directly lets the nobles and wealthy families pick them up.
Well, it's not impossible. I hope so.
Lu Yuguo didn't think about it anymore and concentrated on doing his own thing.
By noon, he had finished drawing the size marks and could start work in the afternoon.
During lunch, Yang Shijing took his lunch box and sat down next to Lu Yuguo.
Lu Yuguo greeted him and ate quietly.
But Mr. Yang seemed to feel that one morning was not enough time for him to blow the trumpet for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he was still blowing it even at lunch time.
"Xiao Guo, you don't know. I used to think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a high-handed, arrogant person, but after meeting him, I feel that I was really too narrow-minded before."
Lu Yuguo pursed his lips, nodded, and then followed his words: “Well, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must be very powerful.”
"Yes." Yang Shijing sighed and said, "It's a pity that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been choosing a concubine for several years and still hasn't found someone he likes. I hope he can find someone he likes this year."
When he said this, he looked at Lu Yuguo meaningfully, and then continued.
"Given His Royal Highness's personality of preferring to be alone rather than with someone who is not suitable for him, if he finds someone he likes, I believe he will definitely treat that person very well."
Lu Yuguo nodded while eating and said, "Yes, I hope he can find someone he likes and stop choosing concubines in the future."
Yang Shijing observed Lu Yuguo for the whole morning, and it was clear from all aspects that Lu Yuguo really didn't know that the person next to him was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
No one knew how Lu Yuguo knew His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Yang Shijing prayed silently in his heart, hoping that they were destined to be together.
After finishing his meal, Lu Yuguo hurried back to the restoration room and began making the pipa.
He didn't know why, but Mr. Yang always liked to mention His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today. He hadn't noticed before that Yang Shijing was a Crown Prince flatterer.
Fortunately, Yang Shijing seemed to have sensed the resentful gazes of many people, and he mentioned it much less in the afternoon.
In one afternoon, the rough outline of the inner hall of the pipa backboard was taken shape. Even without Fu Chongji's help in carving, he did a good job on his own.
