Chapter 330 King of Ten Thousand Bamboos
“Teacher, what’s wrong?” Seeing Old Tao’s utter excitement, the freckled girl and tall young man asked.
Old Tao did not answer, but suddenly stood up under the astonished eyes of the freckled girl and the tall young man and ran quickly into the kitchen and rushed to Su Jing, saying eagerly, “Mr. Su, what kind of bamboo is this?”
Su Zhenhong, Zhao Mengxiang, and Liu Shu were shocked. How could this old man with good temperament be so excited? Su Jing was also stunned, but he soon realized that as the Bamboo Master Carver, he must be very concerned about this bamboo.
“I don’t know what bamboo is this as it was cultivated by my family.” Su Jing said that as these bamboos were grown from the bamboo from Zither Emperor Universe. Su Jing thought originally that this might be Desolate Jade Sea Bamboo from the hometown of Ye Yinzhu and they may grow into Purple Bamboo, forging the legendary Purple Bamboo needles. But unfortunately, they did not grow into Purple Bamboo, but the fragrance, hardness, and emerald green color showed that it is really a good bamboo. Therefore, Su Jing has been planting it and even occasionally poured some Spirit Stones Soil slag to make them grow better.
This time, he wanted to make Duck Holding Bamboo, which mentioned the use of bamboo that emits fragrance. Su Jing first thought of making use of some bamboo for his dishes but he quickly thought of the third floor bamboo from Zither Emperor Universe. Compared to his bamboos, the other fragrant bamboo was really weak. Therefore, he deliberately went home and chopped a bamboo for his Duck Holding Bamboo dish and the effects were very good.
“It was raised at home, and you don’t know the name?” Old Tao froze.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Teacher, this bamboo seems to be amazing.” At this time, the freckled girl and the tall young man also rushed in. After eating the Duck Holding Bamboo, they saw their teacher become so excited, so they also observed the bamboo and were shocked. They are not as experienced as Old Tao. But after all, they also learned bamboo carving with Old Tao, so they naturally knew something about it.
The materials of bamboo carvings are naturally particular. The bamboo materials must be selected first, for example, they like to choose winter bamboo from Anhui. Every December, they go to Huangshan and Yixian, Anhui to buy bamboo. The Moso bamboo that has been growing for more than 5 years must have just the right hardness and color. Before the official bamboo carving, the big bamboo is boiled in boiling water for 3 hours to prevent it from being moth-eaten in the future; but this is not enough, and it has to be dried for another two months until the color of the bamboo is changed from cyan to amber yellow.
For carving masters, the material requirements are higher and more detailed, all of which are carefully selected. A good material is exquisite, beautiful, valuable and preserved for carving works. They all play a vital role.
The Duck Holding Bamboo dish uses bamboo that is so hard and tough and it looked like it is made from jade. It is the material that all bamboo sculptors dream of. If this news is released, I believe that all Bamboo Master Carver will come running here in the future and they will only use these kinds of bamboo.
They can’t even believe that such superb bamboo exits as it should already have been well-known all over the world and should have been ranked at the top of all bamboos, and marked as the “King of Ten Thousand Bamboos”. Why is it so unknown? If they didn’t found it today, they wouldn’t even have known about it.
“You two foodies, did you just find out?” Old Tao is angry and funny.
“The food was too good for us to notice it before.” The freckled girl and the tall young man scratched their heads in embarrassment.
“Mr. Su, do you have any more of this bamboo?” Old Tao asks again.
“I have some at home.” Su Jing.
“I’m preparing a new bamboo carving. I wonder if I can buy some bamboo from you.” Old Tao said, then seemed afraid that Su Jing would not agree and adding quickly, “I will repair the broken chairs and sofas you mentioned. I will try my best to repair them perfectly for free. “
“Oh?” Su Jing froze. He didn’t expect the blessing to come so suddenly. It seems that Old Tao really likes this kind of bamboo, but for himself, this kind of bamboo is not precious and he said, “Okay, Since you help me repair it for free, then I will also give the bamboo for free.”
“Haha, that’s a deal then.” Old Tao smiled suddenly and turned back. “I’m really curious, so I take the liberty to ask, since these bamboos are cultivated by your family, then there must be a source. Where did they come from?” “
The freckled girl and tall young man also paid some attention to it as they also want to know the source of this bamboo. If they know then they would get some back and try to carve it by themself. Such a good bamboo, when they look at it, they want to carve a few out. Moreover, if this kind of bamboo is sold, it should sell very well.
“I bought it from an old mountain village resident who had a stall on the side of the street. He said he saw a very special bamboo tree on the mountain, so he dug it down and came to the market to sell fruit tree seedlings. I saw it and I liked it, so I bought it.” After all, Su Jing lies, he can’t tell them that this is a different bamboo from the Garbage Station.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I see.” Old Tao was surprised.
“Mr. Su, can you show us the bamboo you planted?” The freckled girl asked.
“Sorry, my bamboo is planted upstairs, and there are many dangerous animals such as snakes and scorpions, so it is not convenient for you to see it.” Su Jing said as there are many things on the third floor that are not suitable for outsiders to see, except for Shi Qing and his family, he would not let anyone in. When they heard snakes and scorpions, the freckled girl was a little scared, and Old Tao and the tall young man were a little scared, so they didn’t ask to see it again.
“Old Tao, why don’t you go and sit at my house? I’ll show you those broken chair sofas, and chop a few bamboos for you.” Su Jing said that as he has already completed the order for customers and does not plan to continue cooking.
“Okay.” Old Tao couldn’t wait to get the bamboo soon, so he promised, Su Jing took Old Tao, freckled girl, and the tall young man back home, but the customers in the store were not happy seeing them leave the store.
“Young God of Cooking, why are you leaving now? I am preparing to order some dishes.”
“I’ve just arrived and haven’t ordered yet. I heard that all three new dishes are great. Everyone said they were delicious.”
“Sorry, I’m going to leave now.” Su Jing hastened to leave. Those customers who were preparing to add food regretted it for a while, but those who hadn’t eaten the food were so regretful that their intestines were turning green. If they knew, they would have come early.
“Third Uncle, do we really need to take this dish back for Sister Yan?” The lean young man looked at the packed Duck Holding Bamboo dish and swallowed.
“Why, haven’t you haven’t eaten enough? Don’t forget the main purpose of our visit is to bring a meal made by Qingyun Town Young God of Cooking for Sister Yan.” Taking a glimpse at the thin young man who was swallowing his drool, the middle-aged man didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
“All right, then.” The thin young man have not eaten enough, but they must not forget their business. They left by car, and then the thin youth took the Duck Holding Bamboo dish alone and sent it to “Sister Yan”. (To be continued ~ ^ ~)
