"Looking for me?" Chu Yan was a little surprised, because he was 100% sure that he didn't know the person in front of him, neither before nor now.

"You are the sculptor here, look at your sign and say that you carve everything?" The person who came looked at Chu Yan, with a smiling face, plain facial features, a black suit, his body standing straight, his hands crossed between his abdomen, and his left foot moved slightly to the left as he spoke.

"Yes, as long as you have the materials, as long as you pay the starting fee. Chu Yan looked at the man in front of him, about one meter eight tall, with long hair draped over his shoulders, although his facial features were plain but angular, his feet were slightly outstretched, his left foot was slightly behind his right foot, and although the whole person looked very calm, it faintly contained a touch of momentum.

This person looked at Chu Yan for a while, and finally nodded, reached into his arms with his right hand, took out a long and narrow bronze stone, held it in front of Chu Yan's eyes, showed it, and then slowly put it on the sculpture table, "This is a piece of Burmese Baigang stone, I need you to carve him into a dagger, the drawings are here, remember, you have to touch the same!" ”

Chu Yan picked up this long, narrow stone with a dark yellow color, and with a flip of his wrist, a narrow diamond-shaped knife floated on his fingertips, and then lightly slashed on the stone, then put the stone down, and then opened the drawing handed over by the visitor, "This is it?"

When Chu Yan saw the dagger structure diagram on the drawing, his brows furrowed slightly, and then he raised his head to look at this person and asked lightly.

"That's right, that's it, this is the deposit, within forty-five days, after the completion of the payment, pay two thousand, make this call, remember, it must be exactly the same!" This person nodded slightly to Chu Yan after speaking, his body showed a slight bow of seventy-five degrees, and a pair of sharp eyes never left Chu Yan's hands.

A thick stack of cash had been thrown onto the sculpture table, and the man's left leg twisted slightly without a trace, and then he took a step towards the door, and the crossed hands placed in the abdomen were slowly put down at the moment of leaving the sculpture room, but the right hand was still there!

"It's kind of interesting. Chu Yan looked at the disappeared figure with a playful smile on his face, and at the same time, his eyes searched carefully where the man had stood, until... Found a gadget.

Chu Yan squatted down and slowly pinched a pale black hair from the ground, which made Chu Yan's eyes slowly sharpen.

"Wig?" casually throwing the pale black hair into the trash, Chu Yan became a little interested in this somewhat mysterious guy.

"Brother Chu, what does this man who is a bit of a drag want to carve?" Hearing that he was going to carve something, Su Yinan, the future master of carving, naturally became interested immediately.

"A broken stone, a dagger, by the way, did this man leave any information before?" Chu Yan casually picked up the stone and shook it in front of Su Yinan, while asking about the man.

"No, I just left a phone number, not even a name. Su Yinan reached out and took the blue-green stone, put it in his hand and looked at it, and finally frowned slightly, picked up a small hammer from the tool bag he had just put down, and then lightly smashed it a few times on the corner of the stone.

"Brother Chu, the hardness of this stone is very high, although the density is moderate but uneven, it is very difficult to carve, three thousand yuan deposit, it is really cheap for him. After a simple test of the hardness, Su Yinan put the stone down, glanced at the cash with his eyes, and then reported a number, which made Chu Yan's understanding of Su Yinan one more thing.

When Fan Xianghan finished counting the stack of cash, no more, no less, exactly thirty, which made her extremely admirable, Su Yinan only glanced at the thickness of the cash, and the person didn't say how much the money was, this kind of skill is not ordinarily strong.

"Su Yinan, how did you do it? It's so good!!" Wang Lan was also shocked by Su Yinan's skills, Chu Yan also discovered this Su Yinan, it seems that there is a kind of talent like a small wealth fan, because when Su Yinan was looking at the stack of cash, the light flashing in his eyes was definitely the look that the little fox would flash when he saw the old hen.

"Innate. Su Yinan didn't have any advanced explanations, Chu Yan shook his head with a smile on the side, picked up the drawings, walked up to the second floor and came to the workbench to observe quietly, the drawings are made of CAD, the data labeling is very accurate, each side has detailed data annotation, and the whole stone needs to be integrated into a knife to be absolutely consistent with the drawings.

The knife is ten centimeters long, the blade is six and a half centimeters long, the handle is three centimeters, and the handguard is 0.5 centimeters, this is a small dagger with a simple shape.

It took a whole hour for Chu Yan to memorize all the data on this drawing in his mind, and at the same time he had already started the entire process of carving in his heart.

The knife is ten centimeters long, the stone is about twelve centimeters long, there is a space of two centimeters in the front and back to be polished, the knife is two and a half centimeters wide, extending outward from the gauntlet, showing a fish's belly-like arc to the tip of the knife, the stone is in the shape of a long cone, and the widest part of the dagger blade has less than a centimeter of space to carve, and the thickness is no problem.

In order to get this dagger, Chu Yan formulated a set of simplest plans in his heart, that is, first polishing, then carving, then fine polishing, and finally fine processing.

Because the hardness of the stone is very high, so to ensure that the stone does not crack, the shape of the stone must first be polished with water mill, and then the surface of the stone is coated with a special H2O9-S softening liquid to soften the stone, and then you can really carve by hand, and the amount of the special H2O9-S softening liquid should be controlled to avoid too much softening of the stone, resulting in the wrong size of the dagger.

The density of the stone is moderate, suitable for carving, but some parts are uneven, that is to say, some parts are very dense, and some places are very loose, which adds some difficulty to the carving, although there are soft and hard, but it is necessary to ensure that the dagger is exactly the same as the drawing, Chu Yan thought about it, or decided to do it himself.

Look at the time, it's almost noon, before starting to carve, Chu Yan needs to feed his stomach first, and Chu Yan has a habit, that is, once he starts to do the same work, he will finish it in one go, no matter how much time it takes, there will never be a delay in the middle, in his own words, passion should be enjoyed throughout, roll the sheets halfway up and drink tea, and then go back to do this kind of thing is unacceptable to anyone.

However, when Chu Yan woke up from this sudden state of work, he found that he seemed to have suddenly fallen into a demon, which may be a derivative effect of what he had been thinking about all morning that he was going to build.

"Brother Chu, there are some things I don't quite understand. Su Yinan followed Chu Yan to the second floor, and she had been observing the man's every move from the time he appeared to the time he left, of course, the focus was on when he paid.

"Do you want to ask me why the guest has to set a forty-five day deadline to get this dagger?" To be honest, Chu Yan didn't know, because according to Chu Yan's speed, this dagger could be completed in three days at most, but the customer gave an extremely long deadline, and left without giving Chu Yan any chance to ask.

"Yes, it stands to reason that although this dagger is a bit difficult, it will definitely not take that much time, and if it is handed to me, it can be completed in a week at most. Su Yinan nodded, she is a very smart girl, especially in carving talent, which should not be underestimated.

"I don't know, but I haven't carved stone for a long time, but fortunately, I have prepared all kinds of materials here, especially the types of softeners, I didn't think I would use it so early, but I didn't expect it to be a benefit from taking precautions. Chu Yan smiled and shrugged, in fact, softeners are not used much in forging, but Chu Yan's store is not a store specializing in selling carved artworks, and he also has a very important business scope, that is, the customization of carvings, so softeners are absolutely indispensable.

"A stone dagger, it takes a month and a half to get it, what a strange guest. Muttering softly, Su Yinan turned around and focused his gaze on the drawing of the dagger.
