Chapter 100: The carving worker Tang Shan

Looking at the time, there are more than two hours before these workers get off work. If they can't tell by their naked eyes, Tang Han and others are unwilling to continue staying in the carving factory. Tang Han took the initiative to propose to go to the jade factory mall to see if there is anything good. The two girls naturally support it. What they like is the appearance of the jade after it is formed, not the process.

Although he didn't gain much, Tang Han still remembered a serious look of a young apprentice. The young man was about twenty-four or twenty-five years old. The most eye-catching thing was his extraordinarily focused expression. He was holding jade in his hand, but the water type was not excellent.

If you can recruit high-quality carving workers in Bihai, Tang Han would not have to worry so much. Seeing Ye Xin's leisurely appearance, Tang Han quickly gave up. When it comes to professional things, it would be better not to intervene. Ye Xin's vision is okay to use it to appreciate, but if it is used for appreciation, the gap will be too far.

There are still a wide variety of jade wares in the jade shopping mall, but the grade is obviously much worse than the fine jade wares exhibited in the exhibition hall. The price and material of these jade wares are of course very important factors, and the carving craftsmanship of these jade wares is obviously lower than the level. It is not surprising to think about it. The exhibited are all the finest products, and the carving craftsmanship is naturally outstanding. And those sold for sale are products of others’ practice.

Like the exhibition hall, Hetian jade in the jade mall accounts for the largest share, and there are many types of Hetian jade, as well as handicrafts carved from Qinghai jade and Russian jade. The difference between Tang Han and Qin Yue are idle and unwilling to distinguish, because in this mall, all kinds of materials are marked, probably to make consumers feel at ease. But the prices of these jades are not low, and generally they are more than 1,000 yuan.

Since several people came here to do jade, they also focused their main target on the jade counter. They just took a quick look at other places and then headed straight to the jade counter.

There are not many finished jade products in Yangzhou Jade Factory. The craftsmanship that has been passed down for thousands of years is mainly used to polish Hetian jade. Even if it is rough, the craftsmanship of finished jade products is obviously better than that of other places, and some are even better than the carvings in Zhuo Lao Store.

At first glance, there is not much difference between jade bracelets, but when Tang Han holds it in his hand, he can feel the difference. Yangzhou carvings are known for their delicateness. Like this bracelet in Tang Han's hand, although it is just an extremely ordinary winter melon field and is not a little green, the feeling of tentacles is obviously much better than that of similar types of jade bracelets in other places.

Qin Yue chose a piece of jade carved Guanyin, which was carved from ice jade with floating flowers. It was not as dull as Guanyin seen elsewhere. This Guanyin's face was extremely vivid, dignified and kind, and exuded a holy atmosphere.

The delicate and fair little hand gently touched it, the edges were extremely round and treated without any leakage. The exquisite craftsmanship was admirable.

"Brother, look at this Guanyin carving is so vivid." Qin Yue couldn't hide his words in his heart. Any discovery was like Tang Han's report, which made Ye Xin come over.

"The carvings in Yangzhou are indeed extraordinary. Looking at Guanyin's face, they were as compassionate as the legendary compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva. I just don't know which master's craftsmanship came from." Tang Han praised him, and he saw that the salesperson also leaned over and prepared to sell the jade with them.

"Auntie, which master's craftsmanship is this?" Qin Yue immediately understood what Tang Han said and asked the salesperson sweetly about it.

"This is not the master's craftsmanship, it is the masterpiece of Tang Shan, a young master in our jade factory." The salesperson replied. She did not follow the flow and said it was the masterpiece of a certain master. You must know that in that case, this jade Guanyin would have a double value.

"Tangshan?" Qin Yue asked curiously, "Does the young master have such good carvings? Could it be that he specializes in carving jade?"

"The workers here carve all kinds of jade artifacts, and Tangshan just likes to carve jade. As for age, I'm not boasting that the masters of our jade factory are very powerful regardless of age. By the way, do you want this piece of jade Guanyin? You have seen this carving worker, so I don't need to say more. This jade is also the best ice-type floating flower jade, simple and elegant, and it's best for boys like you to wear it." To Tang Han and the others, the middle-aged salesperson was very enthusiastic in service, and I also knew that most places had the custom of "men bringing Guanyin and women bringing Buddhas".

"Let me take a closer look!" After hearing what she said, Tang Han seemed to be interested and took the jade Guanyin from Qin Yue.

The carving is really nothing to say, and the design is extremely clever. The floating flower part is placed under the face of Guanyin, highlighting the face of Guanyin. Yes, the whole piece of jade raw material is nothing worthy of praise, but he brought the jade carving to life, which is the most admirable thing. The purpose of Tang Han and his friends on this trip was to find such talented people with great carvings.

"How is it? Do you two want to choose a piece of jade? The jade we here are all natural A-grade products, and the quality is absolutely guaranteed."

"If the polishing skills are better, this jade will be even more perfect." Tang Han observed this jade from different angles, and there should be room for improvement.

The salesperson smiled and explained, "This piece of jade costs only 2,000 yuan, and it is impossible for every place to be well done."

Tang Han didn't argue with her much, just said that he would look at other things and find something inappropriate, so he had a reason not to buy it. The polishing and Yangzhou's craftsmanship are indeed not the best.

When we continued to look at other jade products, Tang Han and Qin Yue sang together, first promoted and then suppressed, and also got a lot of information about this young man Tang Shan from the salesperson.

Not only does Tangshan carved flowers such as Guanyin, Maitreya Buddha, bats, spring silkworms, etc. look lifelike, and the carved jade is very artistic. It can be said that he is carving these jades carefully and giving them a new soul. After seeing these works, Tanghan quickly got the foundation. This Tangshan is definitely worth spending a lot of money to hire.

This Yangzhou Jade Factory is famous for its white jade carvings. There are not many jade products and the materials used are very ordinary. I think the income will not be too high. For talents like him, it is indeed a waste.

Not only Tang Han and Qin Yue also thought of this and prepared a speech in their hearts.

Of course, in the end, there is no finished jade product that can satisfy Tang Han and the others. It is either the material is not good or the polishing is not good. Tang Han will not buy it if he cannot be used as a collection level jade.

Less than an hour passed, and Tang Han and Qin Yue also picked up all the problems of these jadeites. Faced with the enthusiasm gradually cooled down until the salesperson with a gloomy face, several people were embarrassed to continue staying in the jadeite counter.

After moving to the other side of the mall, the few people couldn't help but smile in their hearts and laughed out knowingly.

After walking around the other counters for a while, a few people arrived outside the carving factory again, waiting for the young people to get off work. It would be even better if Tangshan could be convinced.

As the weather was drifting, the carving workers also got off work one after another. Tang Han stepped forward and asked a master who was Tang Shan. The master turned around and didn't see Tang Shan, but told Tang Han about Tang Shan's appearance.

When Tang Han heard this, wasn’t it the young man he just looked at? It seems that his vision is pretty good!

Finally, Tang Shan came out of the processing factory, Tang Han hurriedly greeted him, Qin Yue and Ye Xin followed closely behind.

Tang Shan was slightly shorter than Tang Han, but his thinness was comparable to Tang Han. Tang Han was thinking that no matter what he said, he had a common language with him.

"Are you Master Tang Shan?" Tang Han took the lead in saying hello.

"Are you?" Tang Shan was a little surprised. He had never seen the person in front of him before. The two beauties, big and small, behind him were also stunningly beautiful women he had never seen before.

"My name is Tang Han, I came from the Blue Sea. I have a few jade pieces that I want to ask you to help carve." Tang Han didn't waste much talk and said bluntly.

"Let's go outside and discuss in detail." A strange light flashed in Tang Shan's eyes. He looked back, but his face was very calm.

"Of course, it's nothing to go together!" Tang Han thought he would have to talk a lot! Unexpectedly, Tang Shan is so easy to talk to, and everyone should take on private jobs!

"How did you know me?" Tang Shan asked curiously.

"I heard that Yangzhou carving craftsmanship is unparalleled in the world. We just went to the jade counter and found that the carving craftsmanship was indeed well-known, especially the jade Guanyin, which was extremely vivid. I didn't expect it to be really from Brother Tang." Tang Han's words were naturally true and false, and Tang Shan's craftsmanship was indeed good.

"Where," said Tang Shan modestly, "that's my work last year."

"That means that the current level is higher." Qin Yue was also very nervous when he didn't say anything.

Tang Shan smiled at her, saying that he had answered Qin Yue's words.

"Brother, there is absolutely no problem with handing our jade to Master Tang to carve." Qin Yue's slippery little hand grabbed Tang Han tightly again.

"It depends on whether Brother Tang is willing or not!" Tang Han patted Qin Yue's head lightly, then turned his gaze to Tang Shan, and Qin Yue's gaze also fell on him.

"Why wouldn't you refuse!" Tang Shan looked a little flattered.

"That's the best!" Qin Yue squeezed his eyes at Tang Han, and the plan was implemented smoothly.

"I think it's getting late, so why not go for a meal together and talk about it." Ye Xin spoke at this moment. Chinese people like to arrange them at the table no matter whether they are talking about business or what they are doing. Ye Xin has a deep understanding of this.

Tang Han smiled and looked at Ye Xin, then came back to his senses and said to Tang Shan, "I wonder if Brother Tang is willing to enjoy the glory?"

"It's better to obey your orders than respect." Tangshan was not afraid of these. It was extremely common for workers in jade factory to take private jobs, and eating was even more common.

But when he arrived in front of the nearby West Lake seafood restaurant, Tangshan seemed a little unnatural, and he still had such a high-standard place. No one invited him to this place, and he also vaguely guessed in his heart what the situation was. But now, it was too late to get out.

After booking a private room and ordering the dishes, Ye Xin originally wanted to order wine, but Tang Shan said she didn't want to drink. Tang Han gave Ye Xin a wink, and Ye Xin took back the series of reasons that had come to her mouth in disappointment.

"Brother Tang, can I take a look at the jade first?" Tang Shan couldn't stop and turned around and asked Tang Han who was sitting next to him. It was hard to ask Tang Han to look at the jade outside. At this moment, there was no need to worry about safety or something in the private room.

"Of course." Tang Han said, then took out a few pieces of jade with the design drawings from his backpack, and the green bracelet was also brought out by him.

When Tang Shan saw these pieces of jade, his eyes became brighter and brighter. He liked to carve jade and had many jades in hand. Even if he was a distance away, just from the glowing light, he knew that this was an absolutely high-quality jade.

Tangshan is the first to see so many high-quality jade. If he receives jobs for top-quality jade in the factory, he is afraid that novices will make any mistakes. He is basically processed by the masters. No matter how hard he tries, he is no longer the best carving level. One is that there are unspoken rules, and the other is that there are very few opportunities to receive such high-quality jade.

With a nervous mood, Tang Shan was even more surprised when he took over the green jade. He won’t talk about the green jade, but he has never seen such a precious bracelet. Moreover, the level of the picture designers on these jades is definitely not lower than that of the masters in the factory. Every inch of green is designed just right, just like this spiritual monkey worships his birthday, it should have been cut by a novice, but it has been designed with ingenuity to look like it is now. This master is really amazing.

Seeing Tang Shan watching the monkey paying birthday, Qin Yue's little face turned slightly red, and his angrily eyes also turned to Tang Han. Isn't this bad guy brother clearly trying to make her fool?

"These pieces of jade are only a small part. If Brother Tang is willing to help, maybe we will have more opportunities to cooperate in the future." Tang Han said with a smile to Tang Shan, who is still immersed in the jade world.

When Tang Shan heard this, his body trembled slightly and asked in surprise, "This is just a part? How many other jades are there?"

"Not much, it's only a few hundred kilograms." Qin Yue interrupted.

"That's how it is!" Tang Shan suddenly thought, how could such a good thing fall on him, and then he thought about it, was there any conspiracy?
