But if they know that Wang Yang is the chairman of the Wang Group, the most prominent top rich and young man in Qingcheng recently, they will understand why Wang Yang is not interested in money.
In fact, it's not that he is not interested in money, the main reason is that people have too much money to spend!
Wang Yang walked straight into the jade antique shop called Zhiyuzhai with the picture of a hundred birds facing a phoenix.
Many people also followed Wang Yang, after all, everyone wanted to see the picture of a hundred birds facing a phoenix in Wang Yang's hand again.
Also, it is known as Tang Yin's pinnacle work. No one has really seen what it looks like for hundreds of years, and it has even been considered by everyone to be a legend. In fact, Tang Yin did not create a hundred birds and a phoenix at all. picture.
But now, many people have witnessed the reappearance of this masterpiece.
Zhiyu Antique Store is a century-old store, and there are indeed many jade antiques in it, but Wang Yang is not interested in those jade antiques.
Xiao Ming, the shopkeeper of Zhiyu Antique Store, is a master in the field of jade antiques, as well as a master in the carving industry.
Xiao Ming is almost seventy years old this year, but in the jade carving industry, no one dares to underestimate him.
There were no less than ten jewelry groups who wanted to hire him to be the chief engraver of their company, but Xiao Ming rejected them all.
As he got older, Xiao Ming no longer pursued those fame and fortune.
He is now guarding the jade antique shop handed down by his ancestors, and he is also specializing in jade carving on weekdays.
When Wang Yang walked in, Xiao Ming was sitting on a chair carving the Jade Buddha. He raised his eyes and glanced at Wang Yang and the other people beside him, then continued to carve meticulously with his head down.
"Master Xiao really deserves to be a master in the carving industry!"
"That's right, I asked Master Xiao Ming to carve a safety lock for my little grandson. A friend offered 300 million for that safety lock before, but I didn't sell it!"
"That must not be sold. The safety lock carved by Master Xiao himself, let alone 300 million, even 1000 million, I am reluctant to sell it!"
……
After all, he is a celebrity in the world of jade and antiques. Although Xiao Ming has kept a low profile these years, more and more people came here to ask Xiao Ming to carve jade.
Xiao Ming is old now, and not everyone will agree to help him carve.
Chapter 574 Carving Master
Xiao Ming has an unwritten rule that he only carves three works a year, and he will carve for whoever bids the most.
The Jade Buddha he carved just now was carved by a big boss who paid 500 million yuan for the carving fee.
On Wang Yang's side, he glanced casually in Zhiyuzhai, and then his eyes focused on Xiao Ming.
Wang Yang didn't say much, just stood in front of Xiao Ming and watched.
Xiao Ming didn't pay attention to Wang Yang, the carving knife in his hand didn't stop for a moment.
After watching for about ten minutes, Xiao Ming stopped the carving knife in his hand. He looked up at Wang Yang in front of him, and said with a smile.
"Little brother, do you know how to carve?"
When Xiao Ming asked this question, there was actually some contempt in it.
After all, today's young people are becoming more and more impetuous. Few young people are interested in carving, which requires patience.
What's more, modern technology is so advanced that mechanical engraving has replaced manual engraving, and there are even fewer young people who are willing to study engraving.
"Know a little bit!"
When Wang Yang heard Mr. Xiao Ming's question, he responded with a slight smile.
"Oh? Understand a little bit? Then tell me, how about this jade Buddha I carved?"
Old man Xiao Ming also wanted to hear Wang Yang's opinion, but he felt that Wang Yang would not be able to tell why.
"I think, old man, you carve very well!"
Wang Yang nodded, which can be regarded as a kind of recognition for Mr. Xiao Ming.
Old man Xiao Ming laughed when he heard Wang Yang say that.
The people around Wang Yang could not help but smile, and said to Wang Yang one after another.
"Little brother, Mr. Xiao is a master-level existence in the current carving world. No matter what the previous value of the jade carved by Mr. Xiao is, once it is sculpted by Mr. Xiao Ming, the value will skyrocket several times in an instant!"
"Yes, Mr. Xiao is definitely a legendary master in the sculpture world!"
A group of people couldn't help but compliment Mr. Xiao Ming.
However, Wang Yang frowned slightly and continued.
"However, there is one thing that I don't think is very good!"
Although Wang Yang's voice was not loud, almost everyone heard it. In an instant, everyone present was a little stunned!
Including Mr. Xiao who was sitting on a chair with a carving knife in his hand.
Not very good? !
Those people around looked at Wang Yang and couldn't help communicating in private.
"Little brother, although your eyesight is not bad, but you are too arrogant, right? Do you know who Mr. Xiao is?"
"There is Mogan in the north, and Xiao Ming in the south. Mr. Xiao is definitely at the level of a true god in the sculpture world. You, a young man in his early twenties, are you qualified to comment here?"
"That's right, don't think that because you missed Tang Yin's work just now, it's great. The one sitting in front of you is a contemporary master sculptor!"
.........
Many people began to criticize Wang Yang, after all, they were more willing to compliment the master sculptor Xiao Ming.
As for Wang Yang, they don't know who Wang Yang is!
But if they knew that Wang Yang was the chairman of the Wang Group, it might be another way of saying it.
Wang Yang didn't mind, he wasn't so stingy.
In fact, Xiao Ming didn't pay much attention to it. On the contrary, he thought Wang Yang was a very thoughtful young man.
In fact, he usually sees too many people who compliment him.
Ask them what they think after seeing their sculptures, and usually they will say yes without thinking about it, very good, just like a miracle!
But in fact, Xiao Ming also understands.
These people either don't understand at all, or they don't have enough realm, or they simply say those obedient things to compliment themselves.
People like Wang Yang are indeed rare.
"Oh? Really? Tell me about it?"
Mr. Xiao looked up at Wang Yang, smiled softly and said.
"Metaphysics, I don't think there is a big problem with your sculpting skills, old man, but sculpture is not only about shape, but I think the more important thing is similarity in spirit! In your works, old man, I can't feel the expression! "
As soon as Wang Yang finished speaking, Old Master Xiao Ming's face also turned down.
To be honest, it is really hard for him to accept that a young junior like Wang Yang said that his works have no charm.
Mr. Xiao frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything, and those who watched beside him accused Wang Yang one after another.
"Young man, do you know how popular Mr. Xiao's works are?"
"Yeah, how old are you? Do you know how to carve? You still have metaphysics and no charm? Let me tell you, the value of any jade carved by Mr. Xiao will at least increase several times!"
"Don't pretend to understand if you don't understand, we don't understand, so don't let laymen guide experts, so as to save others from seeing jokes!"
……
These people are really realistic. Just now they were yelling at each other, but now they are accusing Wang Yang again.
"Ha ha!"
Wang Yang was a little disdainful, he looked at Mr. Xiao and said directly.
"Grandpa, do you have a carving knife?"
"What? Can you carve?"
Mr. Xiao was taken aback when he heard Wang Yang's question, and looked at Wang Yang and asked back.
"I have learned it before. Recently, a friend's mother celebrated her birthday. I wanted to carve something myself and send it as a gift!"
When Wang Yang said that, the people around were ridiculed again.
"I said young man, you are a bit stingy!"
"I learned it before, how good can I carve?"
"It seems that your family background is not bad, you don't even want to spend the money to buy gifts, do you?"
"Actually, I think this is pretty good. Although the things I sculpt may not be very beautiful, I put my heart into it!"
……
"I am a jade antique shop, how could there be carving knives for sale?"
And Mr. Xiao also said with a slight smile.
"Then, excuse me!"
Since there is no carving knife here, Wang Yang doesn't want to waste time here.
After Wang Yang finished speaking, he wanted to leave, but Mr. Xiao also continued.
"This pair of carving knives in my hand was brought back to me by my apprentice from Shirui last year. The quality is quite good. Brother, if you like it, I will give you this pair of carving knives!"
"That's so embarrassing!"
The corners of Wang Yang's mouth raised slightly and he directly refused.
"I see that you also like carving, young people nowadays, not many like these things... Sigh!"
When Mr. Xiao said that, Wang Yang stopped. He glanced at the pair of carving knives in Mr. Xiao's hand, and it was indeed quite good.
"How about this, old man, if you give me the knife, I will carve a piece of jade on the spot and give it to you, and you will also give me guidance?"
When Wang Yang said that, Mr. Xiao became interested.
"Okay. Young man, not bad.
Mr. Xiao stood up while talking.
Chapter 575 Impeccable
He also has a lot of jade raw materials. Although he doesn't easily carve jade for others, he insists on carving every day on weekdays.
The reason why a master can become a master, in addition to talent, the most important thing is perseverance.
Mr. Xiao casually took a rough stone out of the jade material he practiced carving.
"Just use this carving, no problem?"
Wang Yang glanced at the rough stone in Mr. Xiao's hand, it was not a high-quality jade material, and there were even some flaws on it.
But Wang Yang also nodded directly in response.
"no problem!"
For a master sculptor, there is still the ability to turn decay into magic.
The jade body of this jade is yellow, and there are a few black protrusions on it.
To be honest, this kind of material can only be used for hand practice. After all, no one would appreciate this kind of material in the market.Wang Yang took the jade from Mr. Xiao's hand, put it in his hand and gently turned it over for observation.
"Old man, then I'll start!"
Wang Yang directly moved a chair and sat down, then picked up a carving knife and turned it casually in his hand.
"It's so fancy, what's the use of doing it?"
"What's this called? Isn't this a typical trick!"
"I want to see what kind of good things he can carve!"
