Chapter 1288 - A wooden plan  



Chapter 1288: A wooden plan

Although they didn’t look happy when they were dismantling the wood, that was only when they were unhappy with Yuan Zhou. Once they looked at the wood on the ground, they revealed a smile.

That gentle look was comparable to the time when he was wooing his wife. Anyway, that was how Ma Xiao looked now.

The three of them dismantled the wood very quickly. Although apart from Yuan Zhou, Carpenter Lian didn’t allow Ma Xiao to dismantle the wood alone, the four logs of wood that had been dormant for a hundred years were dismantled in less than 20 minutes.

It was also a coincidence that the sun, which had been coming out less and less since the weather had gradually become cold, suddenly shone down. The Golden and bright sunlight instantly covered the entire courtyard.

“The sun is actually out.” Yuan Zhou said in his heart.

But before Yuan Zhou could sigh with emotion, Carpenter Lian at the side quickly said,””The two of you, quickly go and get some sunshade cloth. This can’t be exposed to the sun.”

“Okay, master, we’ll go immediately.” Ma Xiao answered much faster than Yuan Zhou.

“Alright,” he said. Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then took Ma Xiao to the first floor of the pub.

The first floor was empty. Other than some wine barrels, there was also a pile of sunshade cloth in the corner. It was bought by Yuan Zhou in the summer and put here.

However, just as the two of them took the sunshade cloth to the backyard, the sun couldn’t shine on the backyard because of the time. It had shifted to the roof of the backyard, leaving a shadow.

“What are you standing there for? it’s good that the light doesn’t shine. Let’s see what you’re going to do, you piece of wood.” Carpenter Lian noticed that his two disciples were looking at him, so he immediately said in a gruff and dissatisfied tone.

“This is your own piece of wood. Yuan Zhou, come here and see what kind of bowl rack you want to make.” Carpenter Lian added.

“Okay, master.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and put down the sunshade cloth in his hand. Only then did he walk to Carpenter Lian.

Yuan Zhou had already made a plan in his heart. He looked at the wood that emitted the fragrance and said,””Here’s the thing. I’m going to open up the shop next to the pub and make a high shelf with a spiral staircase around it. I’ll put some things that are not needed at the moment on the upper floor and then put them down one by one.”

“You have a lot of ideas.” Carpenter Lian muttered to himself before saying,””Take me to see the situation inside your building,”

“It’s not that I have many ideas. The main thing is that I don’t have a lot of wood.” Yuan Zhou said earnestly.

“Get lost, get lost,” Carpenter Lian patted Yuan Zhou’s shoulder angrily.

Carpenter Lian’s hands were not as good as Yuan Zhou ‘s. Due to the long-term carpentry training, the joints of his hands were thick and strong. His palms were thick and rough and even had some prickly calluses.

Although he was very angry, Carpenter Lian had shown mercy in his slap. It didn’t hurt Yuan Zhou at all. Therefore, Yuan Zhou didn’t take it seriously. He even smiled gently at Carpenter Lian and went to the next room with his people.

Ma Xiao followed closely behind. He wanted to take a look as well, but after taking two steps, he was stopped by Carpenter Lian.”Why are you following us? you’re in the way.”

“I’ll also go and take a look and put on a shelf. ” Ma Xiao said innocently.

“What are you looking at? you’re just a helper today. It’s not your turn to do anything.” Carpenter Lian waved his hand in disdain.

“But …” Ma Xiao still wanted to say something but was interrupted by Carpenter Lian.

“But what? you just stay here and look after the wood. They are much more important than you. Stay here and don’t move.” Carpenter Lian waved his hand and pointed at the yellow Rosewood on the ground.

Carpenter Lian could not bear to treat Yuan Zhou ruthlessly, but he would treat Ma Xiao as crudely as he could.

This was like a father treating his son, who was a top Humanities student, and his two sons, who were rough top martial arts students. Both of them were good disciples, but one had to be gentle, while the other was not.

“Alright,” he said. Ma Xiao agreed listlessly and then went to look at the log.

“I’ll have to trouble you, Junior Brother. ” Yuan Zhou said courteously.

“It’s no trouble at all. Master is right. Such an expensive thing really needs someone to look after it. ” Ma Xiao shook his head and said immediately.

“Don’t worry about him. Go and see where they are placed. Try to finish the prototype by today.” Carpenter Lian strode toward the Sergestes wall.

After Yuan Zhou brought Carpenter Lian out of the restaurant, he walked directly to the empty store, where there were still workers renovating.

It didn’t affect the two of them from looking at the size and layout of the house. Yuan Zhou even explained how to place the bowl rack.

Meanwhile, Carpenter Lian carefully took the size and recorded them down. After he was done, the two of them returned to the backyard of the tavern.

“Your two-story building is self-built. It’s 7.1 meters high. According to you, we don’t need to connect the second floor directly. The frame should be six meters long, and it should stick out a little to form a frame. That’s about 6.2 meters.” Carpenter Lian pointed at the wood on the ground and said.

“Yes.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.

“A piece of wood here can make about one and a half open-rack bowl holders, and there’s still some leftover materials,” Carpenter Lian measured the wood and made an estimation.

“Then, let’s do the open stance.” Yuan Zhou said.

“Yes, you can make five bowl racks. Other than the four corners, there’s a strange bowl rack in the middle staircase. You can make the last bowl rack according to your newly built staircase.” Carpenter Lian said quickly.

“Alright, I’ll have to trouble you then, master.” Yuan Zhou said.

“That’s for sure. Even if you let someone else come, he wouldn’t dare to touch your wood. ” Carpenter Lian said unhappily.

“That’s because other people don’t have your skills. ” Yuan Zhou said earnestly.

“Hmph,” he snorted. Carpenter Lian snorted, but his expression softened, and he looked happy.

Carpenter Lian was naturally quite happy to hear Yuan Zhou’s praise.

“What are you waiting for? you’re in charge of passing the tools and don’t touch the wood. Little Yuan, help me when you’re free.” The happy Carpenter Lian turned his head and saw the dumbfounded Ma Xiao. He immediately started shouting.

“Yes, Master.” Ma Xiao did not complain even after being yelled at. Just like what Carpenter Lian had said, he would not dare to touch such a precious piece of wood.

To put it bluntly, the bowl rack looked simple, but it had to be shaped in one go. Furthermore, because the heart of the yellow Rosewood had its own pattern, it had to be cut and arranged according to the pattern. If it was not done well or damaged, Ma Xiao felt that he was not as valuable as the wood. To put it bluntly, he could not afford to pay for it.

Now, he could watch his master do it and help Ma Xiao by the side. He was already very content.

Both Carpenter Lian and Yuan Zhou were people of action. After they finished the arrangement, they immediately started to do it.

No matter how much Carpenter Lian felt sorry for using this precious wood to make the bowl rack, he did not even dare to touch it. However, when he was making the bowl rack, Carpenter Lian’s hands did not even tremble as he started cutting the wood.

“Shua shua” sounds were heard continuously. Carpenter Lian had found a good spot and started cutting.

“This is a peacock pattern. It’s indeed a good piece of wood.” Carpenter Lian’s expression was relaxed and he was full of praise. However, he did not stop and continued to work.

Once it was cut open, the beautiful pattern of the pear wood could be seen. The pattern was not like an ordinary Ghost Face, but a rare peacock pattern, which was very clear and beautiful.

Time passed very quickly and the three of them also finished their work very quickly. They didn’t even take a break in the morning. When Yuan Zhou went upstairs to wash up and prepare the ingredients for lunch, the wood had already been cut.

When the lunch time in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant ended, Carpenter Lian and Ma Xiao didn’t take a break at all. When Yuan Zhou went over, Carpenter Lian had already started to figure out the rough shape of the bowl rack.

Of course, the outer layer of rotten white skin had already been carefully rubbed off by Carpenter Lian.
