What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Chapter 158 Mr. Feng's Eyesight

The next day, Tang Baona went to grandpa's house before going to work, because she knew that grandpa would always get up early for a walk.

Seeing the palm-sized boxwood carving sent by his granddaughter, Mr. Feng showed great interest, and put on his reading glasses to take a closer look.

"Grandpa, how is it? Is this carving okay?" Tang Baona asked with some expectation.

Old Mr. Feng looked at it for a while, rubbed the head of the woodcarving lightly, nodded and said: "This is a very interesting woodcarving, it should not be long, right? Some details are not as good as the one in your photo. It looks like It’s regressing. But the design of the wood carving is more interesting, with a touch of Buddhism, and a little bit of the feeling of your young people...cartoon. The boy who made this wood carving for you has a very good idea."

Tang Baona was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "Grandpa, I don't seem to have said that my friend is a man? And even if it is a man, he may not be a young man, maybe he is about the same age as Grandpa?"

Mr. Feng laughed and said: "We often say that 'handwriting is like a person', and you can know people by reading. Looking at a person's handwriting, you can see his character to a certain extent, and you can see his general psychology when he writes. Paintings, woodcarvings The same is true for this kind of works. There are many things that can be seen. This wood carving pays more attention to the overall coordination rather than the exquisite details. The lines are rough and show a sense of strength. It is more about the rationality of the structure than the aesthetics, and this is obviously a masculine work. As for the age, because you always use the tone of the same generation when you mention him, so the age should be about the same as you."

Tang Baona exclaimed: "Grandpa, you are too amazing, what else can you see?"

Mr. Feng put the wooden carving flat on the palm of his hand, and said with a smile: "Buddhism often embodies various abilities as arms and eyes, which means that you can see more, understand more, and do more. More. Your friend should be a person with strong abilities, versatile talents, more confidence in himself, and a more flamboyant personality, right?"

strong ability? versatile? Thinking of the various talents that Xiang Kun has shown in the short two months since she met him, Tang Baona deeply agrees.

Each arm of the eight-armed woodcarving seemed to be a craft that Xiang Kun had mastered.

But a confident personality? This doesn't seem to fit.

Mr. Feng said again: "Look at the eight hands of this wood carving, all of them are clenched fists, which shows that your friend is more active and energetic in doing things..."

Tang Baona couldn't help but whispered: "Isn't it because fists are easier to carve..."

Mr. Feng was taken aback for a moment,

Then he pretended not to hear, and continued to speak naturally: "Look at the expression of this woodcarving, the fangs that are deliberately exposed, you can tell..."

After listening to her grandfather talk for a while, Tang Baona took a break and interjected, "Grandpa, my friend didn't mention the price of this wood carving, so what would you say is more appropriate?"

"Well, although it's not a famous work, and the quality of the wood is average, but this shape has a special taste, and it's not easy, and the knife is also good. Three to five thousand yuan is considered a market price." Mr. Feng looked at the piece in his hand. Wood carving, said after deliberation.

Hearing this, Tang Baona immediately took out her phone and transferred five thousand to Xiang Kun in front of her grandfather. Xiang Kun had given her the power to set the price before, and she knew that her grandfather would definitely raise the price higher, so she felt that this price should not treat Xiang Kun badly.

"Grandpa, don't forget to give me more red envelopes during the Chinese New Year!" Tang Baona shook her phone and said with a smile.

"You girl..." Mr. Feng shook his head with a smile, and said, "When will you invite that young man to sit down? Grandpa is very interested in him and wants to chat with him."

"Let's talk about it later, he has returned to his hometown for a while, goodbye grandpa, I'll go to work first." Tang Baona happily left the yard after speaking.

After watching his granddaughter disappear at the gate of the courtyard, Mr. Feng gently placed the wood carving on the stone table next to him, took out his mobile phone, opened WeChat, found Tang Baoting's profile picture, and then sent a voice: "Tingting, it's basically confirmed. Do that... That 'Sabar' woodcarving was given to Nana. It's a young man. I guess it's the blind date your classmate introduced to her. I asked Nana to find time to bring her to meet me. I feel that Nana is right. He is quite protective, and the relationship between the two should be good. Well, your grandfather has sharp eyes and is very accurate in judging people. I will check for Nana..."

...

A few hours later, Yang Zhener saw that everyone else in the office was busy and no one noticed her, so she picked up her phone and sent several WeChat messages to Xia Libing.

"Old Xia!"

"Xia Xia!!"

"My dear cousin!!!"

Finally, Xia Libing returned a dazed expression.

Yang Zhen'er: "Did you see the photo I sent you last night? That wood carving was made by Xiang Kun. How about it? Do you see anything?"

Xia Libing: "Xiang Kun's carving is good?"

Yang Zhen'er: "I'm not asking you this! You're not a carpenter! I'm asking you, what can you tell from this woodcarving, psychologically, from your professional perspective. This villain with eight arms and eight eyes is Originally created by Xiang Kun, why do you think he chose to carve such a villain?"

Xia Libing made another dazed expression: "How do I know?"

Yang Zhen'er made a red face and angry expression: "Aren't you a psychiatrist?"

Xia Libing: "Psychiatrists are not fortune tellers, and I'm not a psychiatrist, I'm a psychiatrist."

Yang Zhen'er sent a crazy expression of a panda hugging her head: "Then tell me what you saw!"

Xia Libing's dazed expression x3: "There are too few judgment criteria, so I have to communicate with Xiang Kun directly, and ask him what he was thinking when he carved this, and whether he has seen similar images before, such as Buddha statues or cartoon images , What was your idea when carving the eyes, why are there eight instead of six, is it a deliberate design and arm symmetry or other reasons..."

Yang Zhen'er sent a black face and smoked emoji: "I think if I continue talking with you, I'm going to see a psychiatrist."

Xia Libing: "The psychiatry department of the hospital where I practiced before is not bad. If you go, you can find Dr. Liu."

Yang Zhener: "You have lost your cousin!!"

...

A hospital in Citong City, Haixi Province.

In the corridor outside the office, after finishing chatting with her cousin, Xia Libing did not exit the chat window, but pulled up the chat history. After seeing those pictures, she didn't know it was Xiang Kun last night Carved wood carvings, so I didn't look at the pictures at all.

Xia Libing opened the picture, clicked "Save Original Picture", and then zoomed in, looked at the details of the wood carving for a while, then retracted to the original size to look at the overall shape, thoughtfully.

She already knew among the four people last night that Xiang Kun was going back to Zaitong City today.

...

As soon as he got on the bullet train, Xiang Kun received a transfer amount from Tang Baona. He was also quite surprised. He didn't expect that the wood carving could sell so much. To be honest, the price was much higher than he expected.

You know, he hasn't learned to sculpt for long, and the sculpting materials this time are just leftovers that haven't established a supersensory connection.

But for Xiang Kun, this "financial path" did not surprise him, because it took too long to make this wood carving, and it took the same amount of time for him to take on a software outsourcing job, which cost him 20,000 yuan. above.

"It's better to treat this kind of thing as a favor." Xiang Kun secretly decided, thinking about the eight-armed and eight-eyed wood carving in his mind, he suddenly had some strange feelings for no reason.
