Chapter 352: Skills Competition

"Master Su, I still want to ask you a question. You must answer me truthfully." Li Zhenbang stared at Su Yuquan closely, and did not give in at all.
"You... tell me!" Su Yuquan didn't know why, seeing Li Zhenbang's eyes actually felt palpitating.
"The quality of the same type of wood is naturally different, but are there really high and low between different types of wood? Is it their own material or the user?" Li Zhenbang looked at Su Yuquan flatly, but said The space was filled with a kind of domineering taste.
"Inferior is inferior. No matter how you change it, you can't become high. This is destined by nature and cannot be changed." Su Yuquan said dissatisfiedly. Li Zhenbang's tone made him very disgusted.
Li Zhenbang heard Su Yuquan’s words and did not refute, but continued to ask:
I don’t know where Master Su came from before he became the royal craftsman of the palace? Which official family disciple was it? Or from which noble family?

"This... what do you mean?" Su Yuquan looked at Li Zhenbang annoyed, he was actually very evasive about his origin. At this moment, being mentioned by Li Zhenbang in public, and in front of His Majesty the King, it is reasonable for him to be angry.
Su Yuquan was born in a civilian family. When he was a child, his family was poor. When the temple awakened, he became a fighter, but his qualifications were mediocre. Even now, he was just a black iron fighter. In order to make a living, I felt helpless and finally learned to be an apprentice carpenter to subsidize the family.
However, he is very talented as a carpenter. He is well-known in the local area before he even became an apprentice at a young age. Many people even come to him to make all kinds of wooden products, from jewelry box decorations to bed wardrobes. There is an endless stream of people seeking things.
However, he did not indulge in his reputation at the time, nor did he stop exploring. In the end, he became a generation of masters, a well-known carpenter in China, and the royal craftsman of the palace.
"As far as I know, Master Su was born poor. If according to your statement, the inferior is the inferior and cannot be changed in any way, then can you explain to me your growth process? Are you someone The son of a big family's outhouse?"
"You...you..." Hearing Li Zhenbang's words, Su Yuquan trembled and tremblingly pointed at Li Zhenbang, his breath was already unstable.
Li Zhenbang's words are very heavy, and there is no difference between a son from a house and a curse.
The wealthy and powerful men in this world or the children of large families and large nobles can have wives and concubines. Li Zhenbang’s mother Ye Wanqiu is a partial wife, and is lower in status than Zhao Wenji, but in fact the status of the two is in the family. it's the same.
Whether you are a wife or a concubine, you can enter your name into the family tree, but this house is different. They don't have any status until they die. They are just women raised by rich people, and their children are also not given any status.
Of course, if a son is born, and the man has no heirs, in this case, the child is still very likely to enter the family, but the outhouse is only an outhouse for life.
If the man’s family has a big business, at least he won’t endure any hardships when he is young, and he can even leave some wealth in his old age. But if the man’s family is down, these outhouses will be very miserable and will not receive any compensation or status.
It is not easy for an unmarried single mother to raise a child alone, and it is even more difficult to make ends meet than a divorced or widowed woman. Because there is still a lot of prejudice against this kind of woman in society, idle men always have illusions about this kind of woman, and women are disgusted with this kind of woman.
For the sake of a livelihood, the fallen out house women may not be able to do something shameless in the end, so in the eyes of everyone, the out house women are not even as high in status as those in the Flower Boat Garden.
"Master Su, I'm so angry that I believe you must not be the son of a foreign house. The reason why I tell you this is to let you know that you do not have the blood of aristocrats and officials, but you have also become a generation of masters. It is the existence that makes others look up. So nothing can't be changed! As long as this wood is used in the right hands and in the right place, there is no distinction between high and low!" Li Zhenbang said powerfully.
Su Yuquan's mood did not improve much because of Li Zhenbang's explanation. The little fur boy slapped his face in front of His Majesty the King, preventing him from coming to Taiwan. Now he hates Li Zhenbang even more. Su Yuquan glanced at Li Zhenbang coldly, stretched out his hand and said, "Give it to me!"
Li Zhenbang respectfully handed the larch into Su Yuquan's hands, and the guard who had gone out with Li Zhenbang before carefully took out a set of tools and placed them in front of Su Yuquan.
"Master Su, your Majesty has precious time, so don't you want to make some large objects that are time-consuming and laborious?" Li Zhenbang asked softly.
"Humph!" Su Yuquan snorted coldly, and ignored Li Zhenbang. He was not a rookie, so he naturally knew what to do at this time, and Li Zhenbang was a junior to remind him.
Su Yuquan checked the tools carefully, picked up a carving knife in his hand, and polished it slightly, then nodded in satisfaction. With his strength, he doesn't need too many tools to make a small thing, he can do what he wants, he can walk at will, and the knife moves with his heart.
Su Yuquan raised the larch in front of him, carefully observed the texture and density of the wood, slowly touched the wood with his hand, and did not rush to operate.
After the observation, Su Yuquan slowly closed his eyes, and the details of this larch were all imprinted in his mind. He had already decided on the work he would create, so he kept simulating and practicing in his mind.
Everyone, including Zhao Tianlong, looked at Su Yuquan breathlessly, for fear that a little noise would disturb him.
At this moment, Su Yuquan stood motionless with his eyes closed, holding the larch in one hand and the carving knife in the other.
Su Yuquan opened his eyes suddenly, and a light flashed in the side hall. Everyone's spirits couldn't help but they were all staring at Su Yuquan.
Without any hesitation, Su Yuquan handed the carving knife from the right hand to the left hand in the eyes of everyone's surprise, and his right hand held the larch. Su Yuquan’s greatest strength is actually not the commonly used right hand, but the seldom used left hand. There are no more than five people who know this.
Su Yuquan stared at the larch in the palm of his right hand intently, his left hand moved quickly, and afterimages had formed.
Time seemed to freeze. Everyone stared at Su Yuquan motionlessly, all impressed by his tricks. Su Yuquan didn't move either, only his high-speed moving left hand and the flying sawdust indicated that time was still passing by.
Everyone didn't wait for too long. When Su Yuquan stopped, he gently blew towards his right hand, the sawdust slowly fell, and an original wooden jewelry box appeared in front of everyone out of thin air.
The carved dragons and phoenixes on the jewellery box are so beautiful that they are not ordinary products at first glance. Although it is just an object that has not undergone any subsequent treatment in its original ecology, the surface is round and shiny, and emits bursts of soothing fragrance.
Su Yuquan returned the carving knife to the guard first, and then he held the jewelry box in both hands and lifted it up, slowly placing it on the table in front of Zhao Tianlong.
Zhao Tianlong put the jewelry box in his hand and took a closer look. Then he placed the jewelry box on the table and nodded in satisfaction.
"Your Majesty, Li Zhenbang is courageous. I want to take a look. I don't know if it's okay?" Li Zhenbang begged.
Zhao Tianlong raised his hand at Li Zhenbang, and a guard held up the jewelry box and handed it to Li Zhenbang.
Li Zhenbang took the jewelry box and looked at it carefully, sighed and shook his head, and put the jewelry box back on the table.
"What do you mean? Can't you give up?" Su Yuquan looked at Li Zhenbang proudly. He didn't think that Li Zhenbang could come up with better works than his own.
"Master Su, this is your final result? Is your limit?" Li Zhenbang's face was full of disappointment.
"Li Zhenbang, you have to be brave. If you come up with a work that convinces me, I will admit that I have lost." Su Yuquan's face is a little bit awkward, although he is not very familiar with this larch wood, But relying on my years of experience, I can easily complete this work in a short time.
"Master Su, how do you think this dragon and phoenix jewelry box compares with other items you made?" Li Zhenbang looked at Su Yuquan with a calm expression.
"Huh, it's naturally not as good as my other works. It's just larch. With such materials, I have reached the extreme." Su Yuquan said nonchalantly. He made high-end luxury jewelry wood, so ordinary How could the materials used by the people come into his eyes.
If you don't have the talent in this area, and you have used larch when you are young, it is really not easy to make fine products. Even if the work is not superb, if Li Zhenbang wants to produce works that exceed his own level, it is not easy to do it. He is confident that he still has this point.
"Extreme? This is also called Extreme? Your requirements for yourself are really too'high'!" Li Zhenbang's tone of disdain and deafness could be heard.
"If you have the ability, you can come up with works better than this, otherwise you are not qualified to be here!" Su Yuquan tried to suppress his anger. If it weren't for His Majesty the King to be here, he would have to tear the mouth of this gibberish bastard.
"Just take the liberty to ask, how does your work compare with the woodwork in this room?"
