Chapter 76
Chapter 76: Chapter 76. Abbey Dean Ning was a craftsman
“You should be more open-minded and confident.”
After the acupuncture, Ning Fei said to Jiang Xue with a smile.
At that moment, Jiang Xue was lying in front of him. Ning Fei knew that it was not appropriate for him to stay here. After putting away the silver needles, he stood up and walked out.
“Abbey Dean Ning.”Jiang Xue held back her shyness and called out with a flushed face.
“HMM?”Ning Fei turned around.
“Well, can you wait for a moment? I want to thank you personally,”Jiang Xue said.
At that moment, Jiang Xue had already sat up from the bed. Her fair skin was covered with sweat. A strand of her hair stuck to her cheek, making her look even more charming.
“Sure. Jiang Feng just wants to treat me to a meal. I’ll be right outside.”
With that, Ning Fei left.
Ning Fei’s expression was calm, while Jiang Xue was somewhat disappointed.
After that, Jiang Feng treated Ning Fei to a meal at the best hotel in Qin City, followed by Jiang Xue. The three of them chatted and laughed. Jiang Feng was very grateful to Ning Fei, and their relationship gradually became familiar.
In the afternoon, Ning Fei returned to Qingfeng Temple.
Yong Tao drove a truck over, and the one behind the truck was the camphor wood.
“The procedures have been completed. Here’s Your Wood,”Yong Tao said with a smile.
“Mm, just leave it by the roadside.”Ning Fei looked at the camphor wood and smiled in satisfaction.
“You’re doing well now. The Taoist temple has become so beautiful,”Yong Tao said as he toppled the camphor wood from the car and got out.
“It’s still under construction. The complete effect hasn’t been released yet.”
“Ning Fei, to be honest, I felt that you were the most special in high school. I also felt that you didn’t work so hard. You always came first in your age in every exam. I feel that a person like you will definitely stand at the top of cities like Jingdou and Pudong in the future.”
Hearing Yong Tao’s words, Ning Fei shook his head, he smiled and said, “Stop. There are so many cities and schools across the country. You are the number one in every year. How can you make a name for yourself so easily? Don’t you all graduate and go to work?”
“You’re different. You’re really different. I’m not the only one who feels this way. The others also feel the same. You’re the kind of person who seems to be able to do everything easily.”
“Okay, okay, okay. Let’s not talk about this anymore. You can have lunch at my place.”Ning Fei smiled helplessly.
Yong Tao also shrugged. He did not understand why Ning Fei would come back. Could it really be for the inheritance of the Taoist temple? It was already the 21st century. This kind of concept had long disappeared. No one would believe it anymore.
“I don’t think we can eat anymore. There’s a problem at the Golden Monkey Conservation Area. One of our colleagues, the Golden Monkey Rangers, hasn’t returned yet. I have to go take a look.”
“There’s such a thing? Who Is It? Old Zhang?”
“Yeah, there are too few people who are willing to be wildlife patrol officers nowadays. Only Old Zhang is willing to work there.”
“Okay, then pay attention to your safety.”
“By the way, we agreed that you’re my best man. There won’t be any problems on my wedding day, right?”
“Don’t worry, I’ll crawl over even if I have to crawl!”
“Hahaha, I’ll wait for You Then!”
Then, Yong Tao drove away in the truck.
Ning Fei knew that Yong Tao was also a person who loved nature and animals, and was willing to protect this place.
There were many people who liked animals, but very few people were willing to sacrifice their youth.
Everyone liked a different way of life.
Now that the Camphor Wood had arrived, Ning Fei could also make plans for the next step.
He went to the carpenter in the village to borrow tools. After returning to Qingfeng Temple, he explained to the netizens,
“Dear viewers, next I will have the fragrant camphor wood to make two plaques.”
“Nowadays, traditional carpenter tools are very rare. Most of them already use mechanical tools. However, because the process of making plaques is not complicated, I plan to use traditional carpenter tools to make them.”
“Square ruler, saw, plane, chisel, wood file, ink bucket…”
Ning Fei took out the tools one by one.
“Damn, I know carpentry too.”
“Isn’t it just making a plaque? Can’t you just chop a small piece of wood?”
“Uh, strictly speaking, wood products have a high requirement for accuracy. This is also why they are all mechanized now. It is very difficult to use traditional techniques to make a plaque.”
“It’s not that easy to cut. Why Don’t you try cutting one?”
“This is a delicate job. Don’t think it’s that simple.”
“Yeah.”
At this moment, Ning Fei had already raised his axe and started cutting camphor wood.
It was not convenient to wear a long robe when doing work. Ning Fei specially went to change into a pair of wide-legged jeans and a black half-sleeve. This kind of clothing was not afraid of being dirty and could even resist wood chips.
“The plaque of Qingfeng Temple is about 1.2 meters long, so we took a bit more.”
Ning Fei hacked down with his axe. Each axe would deepen a mark on the trunk. After about a dozen strikes, Ning Fei cut off the excess wood on one side.
This scene also had a sense of violent aesthetics.
“My family makes wood. I Can’t believe that Abbey Dean Ning could cut off such a thick tree trunk so quickly. Amazing!”
“Fellow workers, tree trunks are very difficult to cut down. Usually, machines are used to cut them. This streamer is really fierce.”
“I didn’t believe it when I heard that someone was a traditional carpenter. After watching this, I believed it!”
Then, Ning Fei cut off the other side of the tree trunk, leaving only a thick piece of wood.
After that, he cut off the two sides slightly and made a rough shape of a rectangle. He measured the distance with a square ruler and sawed out the mold of the plaque with a saw.
“Now that the mold is made, the only things left are polishing and planing. The woodworkers usually prepare three types of planers: Rough Planer, fine planer, and light planer. I need to use all of these.”
“There are also slotting planers and line planers at the back. They are more professional tools.”
“When using the Planer, you must pay attention to the downward force, not just a simple forward push.”
Ning Fei explained.
He began to polish the plaque.
The plaque that Ning Fei had made with a saw was a rectangular shape with a concave interior. The four sides were beveled, and the large words in the middle were even more prominent.
When the few wood-making netizens saw Ning Fei’s actions, they were all amazed.
Ning Fei’s actions were very skilled. It was obvious that he had done carpentry before.
After the plane was shaved, Ning Fei used a slot plane and a line plane to outline the lines. This move also amazed everyone.
“This streamer is very good. An expert knows the ropes. I have been working as a carpenter for about ten years. The streamer’s basic skills are very good.”
“Yeah, it’s rare for a traditional carpenter to have such standards.”
“What? An outdoor streamer knows carpentry? Oh, it’s Abbey Dean Ning. It’s fine then.”
“Now, no matter what Abbey Dean Ning does, I’m not surprised. I even feel that it’s only right.”
“So there’s so much to be said for making a plaque.”
Ning Fei was so focused on making the plaque. Although the Camphor Wood had withered, its unique fragrance was still there. This fragrance could both dispel insects and refresh the mind. It was a rare treasure.
Ning Fei polished the plaque bit by bit. Every blind spot and every detail was carefully polished.
Ning Fei had a very good advantage, which was that he was very focused when doing things.
When a man was focused on doing something, he was very handsome. That kind of focused gaze, serious expression, coupled with a strong body, made the male hormones explode.
After the plaque was polished, its basic appearance was revealed. The plaque was square and angular, looking exceptionally grand.
“Good job!”
The 10-year-old carpenter could not help but praise.
An expert would know the basics. The plaque made by Ning Fei had a very high smoothness and smoothness on the surface. It looked like a mirror. The angle of the beveled surface was consistent from beginning to end, and it was neat and tidy.
The simpler the geometry, the more difficult it was to make it. This was because it required more details. Ning Fei’s work was perfect in terms of details. There were no flaws at all.
“Abbey Dean Ning’s work is really good!”
“I feel that something is wrong. How do you know that Abbey Dean Ning’s work is good?”
“I’ve felt it before. hahaha!”
“6666!”
The netizens were delighted again.
After that, Ning Fei did the same thing and made the second plaque. The second plaque was slightly smaller. It was the plaque of the Sanqing Palace.
“The embryonic form of the plaque has been completed. The next step is to engrave the words.”
“Before engraving the words, write down the three words ‘Qingfeng Temple’with a brush. Then, use a file and other tools to engrave the words.”
Ning Fei looked at the two completed plaques and smiled in satisfaction.
“The streamer plans to carve the characters personally?”
“Nowadays, it’s very convenient to carve the characters with lasers. The characters on wood are usually carved by lasers.”
“Carving the characters by hand is too risky, and it’s very easy to have flaws.”
“Yeah, it feels quite difficult.”
Ning Fei looked behind the bullet screen and smiled faintly:
“Qingfeng Temple is my Taoist temple. I want to make these two plaques by myself.”
