Godly Fisherman

Chapter 1189: St. Edward's Throne

Akiyama Rihui was really unconvinced. He began to learn as an apprentice carpenter when he was a teenager, and now he is more than 70 years old. He claims to be the world’s top carpenter, but after seeing the royal chair made by Xiao Peng, Akiyama Rihui Hui was dumbfounded. What kind of craft is this!

As the so-called layman watch the excitement, the expert watch the doorway. He didn't even find the joints of a chair so big at first! It was later discovered that all the carved dragons above were actually to hide the connection? How much craftsmanship does this require? It's not that he hasn't seen the imperial chair, the Chinese red sandalwood inlaid large screen and the throne in the National Museum of the National Museum of the National Museum of Japan. He does not know how long he has studied it, and there is no such craft! How did Xiao Peng do it?

It must be done with high-tech means! So he is very interested in Xiao Peng's tools!

However, Xiao Peng was not angry. The information given to him by Akiyama Rihui was really so important! If it is true, it is a great gift. It's true or not, and he needs to verify it himself.

Xiao Peng brought Qiu Shan Lihui back to his small courtyard, where there was his studio, where he usually played carving and carpentry.

Georgina also followed. He admired Xiao Peng's handicraft greatly: Xiao Peng gave him his couple's mobile phone and let her post it on the Internet, which caused a huge controversy: and everyone's controversy turned out to be ----- -Countless people are saying that it is definitely made of plastic!

How could Huaxia make such a great craft?

Thanks to the blessings of the black media in the West, in the eyes of many Westerners, this Huaxia production is still a representative of ‘inferior’. Especially Georgina’s phone turned out to be "Huawei"? This makes Western media even less acceptable, so all kinds of black Georgina mobile phones.

This makes Georgina angry enough: if it's something else, she might not be angry, but this is her wedding gift, so such a valuable thing makes people spray around? This made her feel unacceptable. When she heard that Xiao Peng had to do something again, she hurried over and wanted to video Xiao Peng to let people see how he did it.

Xiao Peng didn't want to be in the limelight, but seeing Georgina's seriousness, Xiao Peng still allowed her to videotape, but made a request: no facial pats were allowed.

On the table are all kinds of gems, gold and silver. Those were the scraps Xiao Peng had used before. For example, his broken mobile phone cases are all on the table.

"Xiao, what are you going to do today?" Georgina asked.

Xiao Peng glanced at Akiyama Rihui: "What I will do today is carpentry."

Georgina was a little disappointed when she heard this: "Can't you do some jewelry carvings or something? I'm going to shut up those sprayers."

Xiao Peng smiled: "Don't worry, I'll make you a small bench, and I can make them shut up."

"Small bench?" Qiu Shan Lihui was taken aback.

Xiao Peng nodded: "What? Mr. Qiushan, it is impossible for me to make a chair like that for you for a few days, right? I don't have so much time."

After speaking, he moved a piece of gloomy wood: "This is the scraps of the chair last time, so let's not waste it. Georgina, I will give you and Mengzi's child another gift."

Qiu Shan Lihui asked Xiao Peng, "Xiao Sang, where are your tools?"

"Here!" Xiao Peng pulled out a box from the bottom of the table. After opening it was traditional woodworking furniture. There were no high-tech tools like saws, planes, files, chisels, ink fountains, scratches, adzes, etc.

After seeing it clearly, Akiyama Riki was stunned: "You just use these tools?"

It’s no wonder that he was surprised. Even in his own wood factory, he started to use electric tools, because they were more efficient, but Xiao Peng turned out to be better. All he used was hand tools, which was completely different from what he thought. !

He still doesn't believe that Xiao Peng can use these primitive tools to make such exquisite works

The only thing he was curious about was that Xiao Peng was measuring there with a strange ruler.

"What kind of ruler is this?" Akiyama Riki asked puzzledly. He is also an old carpenter, but he has never seen such a ruler.

This ruler is not long, only one foot, four inches and four cents. It is not only marked with dimensions, but also written with eight characters: Cai, Sickness, Li, Righteousness, Guan, Jie, Hazard, Good fortune.

Xiao Peng explained: "Lu Ban Chi, something left by our ancestors."

After Xiao Peng used the ink fountain to draw a few lines on the wood, he cut the wood into the shape he needed, and immediately started work.

What he did is really a "small bench", adults really can't sit on it, that size can only be seated by children, and this chair is absolutely uncomfortable to sit on: the back is a straight backrest, directly on the chair surface Form an angle of ninety degrees. Above the backrest is a triangular point, the armrests on both sides extend directly from the back of the chair, and the surface of the backrest is also 90 degrees! Such a square chair. . . . . . People who have gotten their brains will sit on it all day long, sitting on it for a long time can only be described in two words-suffering!

Xiao Peng sculpted the chair legs there. The chair legs of this chair are rather delicate, as four lions drag the chair.

Xiao Peng said while carving: "The original version of this chair is four bronze lions standing on a copper plate to support this square chair. Let's not have that trouble. Let your child sit on it and take pictures. "

Georgina's eyes widened at this time: "Xiao, making this chair won't cause trouble, right?"

Xiao Peng smiled and said: "What is the trouble? Don't tell me that the carpenter more than 700 years ago would crawl out of the coffin and ask me for copyright."

Georgina was speechless: "You know what I mean..."

Xiao Peng smiled and waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, since I dare to do it, I am not afraid of trouble."

He finished polishing the small bench and said to Akiyama Toshihiro: "Georgina is pregnant, I won't be oiled. Now you see my craftsmanship. It is no different from the royal chair. You should be able to see it. Come out?"

Akiyama Lihui was already stupid. Although Xiao Peng made the chair not big, but he really didn’t deal with it. On the contrary, he created difficulty for himself to do it: for example, the back of the chair, he could obviously make the back of the chair directly from a piece of wood. But he didn’t. Instead, it was made of three small wooden boards. The yin and yang slots are used between the boards. The joints are tightly made, and there are no traces of splicing. There are almost no lines on the boards. Deviation; and those tenon and tenon joints were all made by Xiao Peng holding a claw hammer and a small chisel little by little. The whole chair didn't use a nail or a drop of glue.

Although this chair is ugly to the extreme, the craftsmanship is absolutely nothing. Xiao Peng's handcrafting of this chair is beyond the reach of Qiu Shan Lihui!

And even if Akiyama Riki learns Xiao Peng's production skills, this chair is enough for him to work for several months to complete! Among other things, the carvings of the four lions on the legs of the chair will keep him busy for a long time.

And Xiao Peng? It feels like processing wood is more like processing tofu. No matter what tool is used, one more force is too much, and one less force is just right. This is something that Lu Ban can't do even alive.

Qiu Shan Lihui swallowed, "Xiao Sang, can this chair be given to me? No, no, I can spend money! This is a treasure of woodworking. Please Xiao Sang must meet my requirements."

Xiao Peng asked back: "The chair I gave Guo Sihua is much stronger than this, isn't it? Why do you like this chair?"

Qiu Shan Lihui smiled bitterly: "This chair was made in front of my eyes. I can only describe Mr. Xiao’s craftsmanship as'superior skill'. But what I don’t understand is how can you make such a Ugly chair?"

After Xiao Peng told Georgina of Qishan Lihui's words, the two looked at each other and laughed together.

"Akiyama Lihui, you must remember, this is enough to tell us, don't tell others. Otherwise it will easily get into trouble." Xiao Peng said: "This chair is not that simple. Don’t look at it looking ugly. People have a resounding name called “The Throne of St. Edward”. Didn’t you see the four lions under your feet? The whole world is just one country. There is no lion but I like lions to the extreme, the national emblem There must be lions. This is the throne of that country."

Riki Akiyama is not stupid either, and after hearing that he came back to his senses: "You mean Britain?"

Xiao Peng nodded: "Yes, this is the British throne. The original chair was made by a carpenter in 1296 by King Edward II of England. Don’t look at the ugly chair. Since the 14th century, there have been nearly forty. All British monarchs were crowned on this chair. It can be said to be a symbol of British kingship. Even the current Queen of England was crowned on this chair! Those kings issued orders on this throne to invade 90% of the countries on this planet."

This is not what Xiao Peng said. Throughout the history of more than 200 countries on the earth, only 22 countries have not been affected by the British, including military occupation, military threats, military negotiations, military compensation, funded piracy, and return. There are armed explorers and officials. It is said that British gentlemen, but they did not know that they were the first to invent such **** things as colonial rule and slave trade.

Xiao Peng continued: "Don't even think about this chair. First of all, this is a gift I gave Georgina's child. Secondly, my sculptures are forbidden to leave the country. In other words, even if I give you Can't take it away."

After hearing this, Qiu Shan Lihui hesitated for a long time, and suddenly said to Xiao Peng: "Xiao Sang, can I be your student?"

"What?" Xiao Peng's eyes widened. He imagined the various possibilities for Qiu Shan Lihui to find himself. This is the most impossible, right?

Qiu Shan Lihui said: "I have been pursuing the ultimate in woodworking all my life. I always thought that even if I didn't reach the top, I was one of the few people who stood closest to the top. It is too far away. I hope Xiao Sang will not dislike him and accept me as a disciple."

Xiao Peng looked at Qiushan Lihui, and after watching for a long time, he said: "Have you squeezed the door?"
