The old things I repaired have become fine

Chapter 158 Mr. Shen, can you take me, Old You, in as your servant?

Chapter 158 Mr. Shen, can you take me, Old You, in as your servant? (Completed in days! Spread the flowers!)
Tsk tsk, this is an electric grid woven by small oil lamps, it really can’t be untied.

Shen Le held the takeaway spoon in his mouth and smiled with a bit of gloating. He spit out the spoon in the other party's resentful eyes and answered confidently:
"It's okay. Give me a video so I can take a look... By the way, can you extend my application to borrow the school laboratory for another month?"

You do me a favor, and I do you a favor, it's fair and reasonable, no one is cheated~~~
The other party agreed immediately. As for how many departments to go to and how many stamps to get, it was not Shen Le's business. All the work Shen Le put in was just to call out softly in his heart when the camera turned around:
"Qingdeng, did you see that? Can you feel the seal you made on the other side of the display?"

【able! 】

"Can you untie it now?"

[I'm going to run over...wait...okay! ]

There was no sign of hand gestures, no chanting, no spell-casting process, the silver-white shell quietly disappeared, leaving only a ball of black gas swirling inside the instrument.

On the other side of the video, there was a heartfelt exclamation:
"Wow, so fast! - Xiao Wang, Xiao Wang! Hurry up and apply for the loan! Hurry! I must see it within one working day!!!"

With the borrowing application, Shen Le was able to restore the dressing box given by Professor Lin with even greater ease.

He used the permission given by the Special Affairs Department to work hard in the school laboratory for half a month:

What kind of wood is used for the wooden frame?
How many layers of paint there are, the composition of lacquer, the composition of lacquer ash, the details of the wood frame, the mortise and tenon structure in the wood frame;

Shen Le even conducted a destructive experiment, taking a sample of the mother-of-pearl piece and using all the methods he could think of to test what kind of shell the mother-of-pearl piece belonged to!

Hundreds of thousands of dollars were spent like water. When using the school's laboratory, the instrument depreciation fee does not need to be paid. The special affairs department comes to coordinate, after all, it is a bit of a public-to-public nature;

However, you have to pay for the medicines and consumables yourself and cannot shamelessly use the school’s stock.

Fortunately, I just got 500,000 yuan from the fat shop owner, so I broke even. Half a month later, Shen Le went to say goodbye to the old lady and his mentor with a thick stack of information:

"When I have repaired the dressing box, I will come back to receive your teachings. I will also try my best to find the owner of this dressing box and let you meet her descendants."

"Are you sure?"

The old lady smiled. Shen Le hesitated for a moment:
"I'm somewhat confident, but I still need to try again and again. I've done mother-of-pearl before, but I haven't done gold and silver flat-peeling or gilding yet, so I need to practice first.
I have no experience in inlaying gems, and I have to try to cut these gems piece by piece. I estimate that it will take at least a year and a half to complete it? "

He carefully looked at the old lady's face. The old lady smiled slightly, not disappointed:

"It's a good thing to know that you're not sure. Don't rush, don't rush, take your time, there's no rush. It's normal to take a year and a half, or three to five years to repair an ancient artifact, don't rush for success."

"Then...I'll take my leave first?"

"Go, go." The old lady lay on the sofa with her eyes slightly closed:
"Whether you can repair it well or not, whether you can find it or not, it's all up to you. The most important thing is that you have to know which path you should take, and you have to firmly follow the path you have chosen. Remember?"

This is what the old man thought and did all his life. Shen Le nodded and accepted his advice. He ran back to Zhuxi Town with his dressing box and all the gains he had from this trip.

Work!

Work hard!

The whole old house cheered and jumped. The puppet jumped from Shen Le's left shoulder to his right shoulder, and then from his right shoulder to his left shoulder, swinging back and forth to express his joy.
Around the little ink fountain, the sound of saws sawing wood became more frequent;
The happiest thing was the small oil lamp. As soon as I returned to the old house, all the lights in the house flickered and flashed extremely brightly.

The silver light of the small oil lamp jumped from the east road to the west road, and from the west road to the east road, dancing non-stop:

[It’s time to eat! ]

【You can eat it freely and happily! 】

[Wow, I've been hungry for a long time...]

After following Shen Le in Beijing for such a long time, I could only use the electricity in the hotel room when I stayed in the hotel, and I could only use the electricity in the laboratory when I stayed in the laboratory.

The only time it ate a few more bites was when it was fighting with the guy in the black can. Unfortunately, most of the electricity it ate was used for fighting, so it didn't save much for itself.

I finally got home and can eat as much as I want. I must eat to my heart's content!
"Qingdeng, take it easy!" Shen Le shouted helplessly:
"In a few days, I will have to help the flower demons survive the tribulation again. There will be another thunder tribulation for them to eat! Don't eat too much now, or you won't be able to eat later!"

[It’s okay! Eat as much as you want! ]

[It’s impossible not to eat it! ]

[Is there anything delicious? Is there going to be anything delicious? ]

After the trip out to gain experience, Xiao Youdeng seemed to have become stronger and his appetite had also increased.

I still remember the first time I went back to the old house, it only ate a little of the remaining aura of the thunder tribulation, and then it cried out that it was full and couldn't eat any more...

Shen Le smiled and shook his head, then walked slowly towards the studio. Before he opened the door, several messages popped up on his phone:

"Boss, are you back?"

“Can you continue to take orders?”

"I have a lot of friends here who want to customize that kind of meditation bed. It's OK if you provide the jade yourself!"

"Here are the jade and gemstones they provided, look!"

Lao You is here to bomb again...

This guy is really well-informed. He found out as soon as I got home!

Or maybe, he was flying up there day by day, and when he saw me coming he just sent me a message?
Shen Le turned off the screen of his phone, then turned it back on, then turned it off again, then turned it back on again, and finally sent a message back:
"I'm in seclusion. I don't have time. Standard ones are OK, but no custom ones."

For the standard ones, you can just leave it to Xiao Modou, which will be a good way to add some income to your family; for the customized ones, I don’t have time!

I want to go into seclusion, and go into seclusion with all my strength!
Professor Lin entrusted the dressing box to me. I have to repair it as soon as possible, get clues from it, find the owner of the dressing box, and bring her descendants to meet the old lady!

The old lady said there was no rush, but she was already in her eighties, almost nineties, so who knew how long she could wait? The sooner the better!

"Boss! Are you really not going to consider it..." Lao You sent a tearful expression:

"There are so many orders! So many! I know a lot of monsters who are looking forward to your help, just like a major agricultural province in severe drought looking forward to a heavy rain!!!"

Shen Le rolled his eyes and silently turned off the phone. The next moment, Lao You called impatiently:

"Boss, don't hang up! Don't hang up yet! Can we meet? I have something very important to tell you! It's about your life safety!!!"

Shen Le thought he was exaggerating, but seeing how confident he was, he agreed to meet him. The two met in a private room at Tianxianglou, and as soon as the door was closed, Lao You couldn't wait to speak:
"Mr. Shen! Boss! That mountain lord has sent someone again! It is said that this time he sent a capable person, heading straight for you, and he has already found a clear clue!"

"Is it the same mountain man from last time?"

"That's right! That's the one! This guy is hiding in the Wanli Baishan Mountain. The official encirclement and suppression has failed to lock him down. Of course, he doesn't dare to come out of the mountain either."

Shen Le breathed a sigh of relief. If you don't dare to come out of the mountain, then it doesn't matter. Send your subordinates, no matter how many you send, they will die.

At worst, he could just stay in the old house and not go out. If he takes a step out, he must bring a small oil lamp with him and call for help at any time. He doesn't believe those little demons can do anything to him!
"I really don't have time." He told Lao You sincerely:

"I have a job on hand, and I have to close myself off to work. I don't have time to take care of other work. I'm really sorry."

"...Can I help you? Or, can I take a look at what you are trying to do and help you find someone who can help?"

There’s no need for help—these old objects need to be restored by me personally to achieve the best results and bring them back to life properly.

However, it would be nice if you could find a reliable old craftsman to teach you the craft.

With this in mind, Shen Le invited Lao You to his studio to show him the restored dressing box. Lao You only took a look and said, "Hey!"
"That's easy! I can do it too!"

"Can you fix it?" Shen Le looked at him in disbelief, and casually opened the two doors on the front of the dressing box and pointed them out to him:

"Can you tell me what kind of craftsmanship was used for this piece?"

"Gilding!"

"How many kinds of gold powder are used for gilding? What techniques are used?"

"Ah this..."

Lao You opened his mouth, closed it silently, opened it again, and closed it again. Shen Le was heartbroken:
"This gold powder uses four different colors! Four different colors!"

"How do you know?"

"I did a series of experiments in the lab... including Raman spectroscopy analysis..."

Without the laboratory's support, I can't even figure out which of these gold powders are which!
"There are also gilding techniques. Look, this is gilding with inscriptions, this is gilding with drums, this is gilding with faint gold, gilding with inlays, gilding with sprinkles, and gilding with flat gold..."

He pointed out the intricate patterns of landscapes and pavilions one by one to Lao You.

Two trees next to each other, the branches and needles of the same pine tree, and rocks are outlined with gold lines and smudged with gold powder;
The various colored rocks in the water, the roofs and ridges of the pavilions are all covered with gold powder of different colors, smudged and layered in an orderly manner;

The gold powder of different colors is used to paint the rock, and the black paint line accurately outlines the texture of the rock, which is difficult to distinguish from the texture of the black paint. The texture seems to be formed by leaving a black background with lines.

Select gold leaf fragments of different sizes and sprinkle them on the lacquer floor;

Use lacquer to create raised patterns, and then use gold powder and gold lacquer to outline the patterns...

At this point, Lao You's sharp eyes had changed from clearly defined, freely contracting pupils to whirlpools. Shen Le chuckled silently in his heart:

These two wooden boards were used by teachers for demonstrations, explanations, and as exam questions when he was a student.

The vast majority of gilding and lacquering techniques are reflected on these two wooden boards. As exam questions, it can be said that it is easy to score but difficult to get full marks.

You can't even tell what the old game is, do you want to get started?

Don't even think about it. As students, they don't have the qualifications to touch it at all.

Even if he himself didn't have the golden finger, it would take him ten to eight years to learn just the gilding!
"Um, Mr. Shen..." Lao You was completely defeated. He gritted his teeth and rushed forward again. He kept fighting after repeated failures:

"Are you repairing this dressing box to accomplish a mission? Is there anything I can help you with?"

help?

Shen Le looked at Lao You with a new perspective. This guy definitely couldn't help with repairs, but in another aspect, he might be able to help...

"Well, I was asked by the owner of this dressing box to find its earliest owner and her descendants.

You have lived a long life and have many friends. Do you have any clues in this regard, or can you help me find some clues?"

"Leave it to me!" Lao You jumped up excitedly. He patted his chest and then humbly lowered his back:

"Hey, big boss, can you take me in? Can you let me be your disciple? Even being a servant is fine!!!"
