Chapter 1211: Take me as your master

Carpenter Lian had made up his mind to trick Yuan Zhou with his top-notch craftsmanship. No, he was here to widen Yuan Zhou’s horizons. “Then I’ll have to trouble you, Carpenter Lian,” Yuan Zhou said earnestly. After saying that, Yuan Zhou took two steps back and prepared to have a good view of Carpenter Lian’s craftsmanship. Yuan Zhou wandered around the empty room for a while and was careful not to step on any wooden materials or tools that were randomly placed on the ground. He looked for a good view and then looked at Carpenter Lian with a serious look. Yuan Zhou cherished the opportunity to watch Carpenter Lian work up close. After all, they were not related and this was a piece of craftsmanship. Therefore, Yuan Zhou was naturally grateful to Carpenter Lian. It was rare for Carpenter Lian to be so patient and good-natured. Only after Yuan Zhou found a good seat did he begin to display his craftsmanship. It was just a demonstration, because Carpenter Lian had a very bold idea. While he was making the pin, Carpenter Lian didn’t say anything. Or rather, he was as mute as Yuan Zhou when he was working. In fact, Carpenter Lian’s preliminary work was almost done. Now, all he had to do was to adjust and assemble the mortise and tenon joints. This was the only way to see the magic of the mortise and tenon joints. Without a single nail or adhesive, he could make a beautiful, exquisite, strong, and durable chair. Carpenter Lian wasn’t young. His hair was white and his back was slightly hunched. However, when he looked at the wood in front of him, his eyes were extremely focused and bright. He was very serious. His fingers were rough. With Yuan Zhou’s sharp eyes, he could still see the many thorny wounds and old skin on his hands. However, his arms were strong and his muscles bulged with Carpenter Lian’s strength. Even the hand that was holding the wood did not shake at all due to his age. Instead, it was very steady. “Da da”. Carpenter Lian tapped the wood lightly. Then, he held the two pieces of wood firmly and combined them together. The speed at which the chair was put together was fast and his eyes were sharp. Carpenter Lian did not stop. In just a little while, the Round Chair was completely presented in front of Yuan Zhou. However, Carpenter Lian did not stop there. He continued to show off the skills he had just mentioned. Of course, Carpenter Lian only showed some skills related to the mortise and tenon joints, which were similar to the coordination between mechanisms. He didn’t do much else. After all, they didn’t have much time to prepare in advance. “Pa pa”. Carpenter Lian stood up and dusted himself off. Then, he asked. “You’re amazing. You just used two long-lost carpentry skills.” Yuan Zhou said immediately. “Not bad, you’re very careful.” Carpenter Lian was more and more satisfied. He nodded and said gently. “This is a rare opportunity, so I naturally have to be careful.” Yuan Zhou said earnestly. “This is indeed a rare opportunity. If you use this skill on the bowl you just used, it should make the mechanism more seamless.” Carpenter Lian said. “That’s natural. ” Yuan Zhou nodded his head. “Do you want to learn?” Although Carpenter Lian looked calm, he was secretly nervous. “If you want to learn, you have to acknowledge me as your master.” Carpenter Lian didn’t wait for Yuan Zhou’s answer and continued. “Ah?” Yuan Zhou was a little dumbfounded. He didn’t understand how it suddenly developed to this point. “I say, if you want to learn my skills, you’ll have to be my disciple.” Carpenter Lian repeated his words patiently. It couldn’t be helped. From the first time he met Yuan Zhou, he was moved by his attitude towards cooking. Then, he went to the restaurant to install the cabinet, and then the bowls and ornaments this time. He was a talented and beautiful jade that Carpenter Lian could not reject. Even his own apprentice did not suit his taste. Those who were talented weren’t as hardworking as Yuan Zhou, those who were hardworking weren’t as talented as Yuan Zhou, and those who were both talented and hardworking weren’t as modest and willing to learn as Yuan Zhou. Therefore, Carpenter Lian came up with an idea to show off his unique skill and seduce Yuan Zhou to be his master. Carpenter Lian was a little nervous, but he didn’t show it on his face. He only looked a little more serious. “Alright, as long as you’re willing, I’m naturally willing.” Yuan Zhou didn’t think too much and directly nodded his head and agreed. Yuan Zhou was never ambiguous when it came to learning craftsmanship from his master. Just like when it came to learning the Wu chicken, Yuan Zhou also recognized Grandpa MA as his master. “Ahem, it’s fine as long as you agree. We’ll do it according to the normal apprenticeship ceremony. As for Zhou Shijie, we’ll talk about our own matters.” Carpenter Lian explained as he tried to suppress his laughter. “When do you think is the most appropriate time for the ceremony?” Yuan Zhou asked politely. “I think it’s a good day in three days. There’s no need for a big celebration. You can just cook a table of dishes for me.” Carpenter Lian’s tone became much friendlier. “Yes, Master.” Yuan Zhou immediately shouted. “Yes, you’re really quick to act.” Carpenter Lian said with a smile. “Thank you for being willing to teach me, master.” Yuan Zhou said that quite earnestly. “You were born with excellent aptitude. Even if I don’t teach you personally or acknowledge you as my master, you’ll still be able to learn it.” Carpenter Lian said seriously. “No, the best can be the master. I’m far from being good at carpentry.” Yuan Zhou shook his head and said. “You don’t have to say all this. Even if you don’t want to be my disciple today, I’m willing to teach you for the sake of those decorations and bowls you made.” Carpenter Lian said. Carpenter Lian indeed had such thoughts. Even if Yuan Zhou didn’t acknowledge him as his master in the end, he still wanted to teach him these woodworking skills. In this way, his skills would not be lost. Anyway, he was old and did not need these unique skills to eat. Even those disciples he took in, as long as they met the requirements to learn, he would also teach them. However, Yuan Zhou was the only one who had met such a requirement. “Thank you,” she said. Yuan Zhou bent over and lowered his head and said earnestly. “Didn’t you just say that the one who has the talent is the teacher? no need to thank me. ” Carpenter Lian directly grabbed Yuan Zhou’s arm and helped him up. “Let’s go. This is good news. Let’s go out and meet some people first. My two disciples are still here.” Carpenter Lian grabbed Yuan Zhou and walked outside. “Alright,” he said. Yuan Zhou nodded his head. “Oh right, you don’t have to call them senior brother. Those Rascals have been learning for so long, and they’re not even as good as you. Let them call you senior brother.” Carpenter Lian instructed. “I’ll listen to you, master. ” Yuan Zhou said with a smile. “You’re so obedient. Aren’t you afraid that I won’t let you learn how to cook?” Carpenter Lian couldn’t help teasing Yuan Zhou when he saw his well-behaved manner. “You won ‘t.” Yuan Zhou shook his head. “How do you know? if you didn’t learn cooking, you would have been able to concentrate on your carpentry.” Carpenter Lian pouted and said unhappily. “Because I think my cooking talent is higher than my carpentry talent, and you don’t want me to waste it.” Yuan Zhou said with certainty. “You brat, you’re even bragging. You’re as shameless as that old man Zhou.” Carpenter Lian scolded him with a smile. “I’m telling the truth. Thank you for your compliment. ” Yuan Zhou said earnestly. “Get lost, get lost. You’re the only one who’s so serious.” Carpenter Lian said unhappily. This time, Yuan Zhou didn’t say anything, but just smiled. It was Carpenter Lian who paused for a moment before he said,””I won’t stop you from learning how to cook, or that old man will kill me. However, I can’t delay your carpentry. You just need to learn one of my unique skills in a year.” “Don’t learn too fast. Otherwise, there won’t be much to teach you. ” Carpenter Lian didn’t wait for Yuan Zhou’s answer and added. “Alright,” he said. Yuan Zhou agreed with a nod. “Tell me, why are you so talented? sigh.” Carpenter Lian looked at Yuan Zhou and couldn’t help sighing. “Maybe it’s because I was born with talent.” Yuan Zhou thought for a while and then said. Carpenter Lian was so angry that he laughed after hearing Yuan Zhou’s words. He pointed at Yuan Zhou and then walked forward. However, after Carpenter Lian took two steps, he saw Yuan Zhou didn’t move. He then said unhappily,””Hurry up and catch up. We still have to go see your junior brothers.” ……
