Chapter 487
——【Are you kidding me? In ancient times, do you really think that those who hunt elephants only want ivory and don't want elephants?】
——【Can anyone reveal what the process of making ivory mats is all about?】
Obviously, no one can say clearly how to make ivory mats.
So they could only look at Fang Yang, hoping that Fang Yang could reveal a little.
Fang Yang sighed slightly.
If he didn't know, he would just say he didn't know, but he still knew a little about how to make ivory mats.
Although he didn't know much, it might be enough for some people.
"...... The manufacturing process of ivory type is very complex."
"According to the records I know, it was the Qing Dynasty that selected ivory tribute from Siam for cutting."
"The climate in the northern region is dry, and it is easy to cause breakage."
"So ivory mats must be made in the south."
"When making, first of all, as I said before, you must use special medicinal water to soak the ivory soft."
"As for the medicinal water, if you are interested, you can study it yourself. As for me, I don't know about it."
"And after the ivory is softened, take out the ivory, and along the texture of the ivory, cut it into mat strips 0.3 cm wide and 0.05 cm thick."
"Then use the cut mat strips to carefully weave into a herringbone mat. I believe that in modern life, some people's families are still using such a style, and everyone should not be unfamiliar with it."
"This weaving method requires delicacy in the process."
"The mat is uniform and needs to be tight, and it can be stretched freely."
"I only know this level."
"The most important thing is the medicinal water step, but we are missing this step."
【Popularity】+1+1+1+1.
……
——【Fang Yang is really great. Whatever we don't understand, he is really explaining it to us seriously and trying to make us understand.】
——【I feel that this mat must be very comfortable, and it won't be sticky when sweating, just like the ivory piano keys before.】
——【I think when the ancients used the soaked medicinal water, it would not be too complicated. If there is no accident, it should be similar to vinegar. After all, there was really no such high-tech in the past, and vinegar can soften fish bones, eggshells, etc., and it is estimated that teeth can also be softened.】
——【Upstairs really underestimated the wisdom of the ancients. Learn about Tiangong Kaiwu and Yongle Dadian. How much technology was finally delayed by the Manchu Qing.】
——【It definitely won't be vinegar. I have seen vinegar-soaked eggs before. The next day the eggshell was gone, and it was all melted.】
——【My great-grandmother was a lady from a big family before. There was an ivory bed at home, but this bed was confiscated and given to a family in the countryside. It is estimated to be worth tens of millions now.】
——【Luxury is luxury, exquisite craftsmanship, but it is indeed not as practical as air conditioning technology, so studying to serve the nobles is not as good as studying more progressive technology.】
——【Ancient hunting is difficult, not to mention that this kind of large wild animal is rampant. In addition to ivory, other meat will be eaten to fill the stomach. There is no waste, let alone cruelty. Now hot weapons are easy to abuse and kill, and the speed is faster.】
——【Maybe because only a part is used, some people will feel cruel and wasteful.】
——【Some people say that many crafts have not been lost, but in fact, there are still many that have been lost, including Traditional Chinese Medicine.】
——【Giving Yongzheng an ivory mat can actually be understood. I have seen it in the calendar before, and there is indeed a record that Yongzheng is very afraid of heat, so the flattery of others can be considered to be on the point.】
In everyone's discussion, it is obvious that they do not agree with the existence of ivory mats, and even feel that it is simply a waste of money and waste.
Fortunately, there are no such things in this world.
So even if everyone discusses it, they are not so angry.
After Fang Yang excavated these things, he quickly took his eyes back. He patted the soil on his hands, and he looked like he was going to stop.
The experts were invited by Fang Yang to handle the finishing work.
329. If a big shot makes a move, you will know if there is one, no rules, no square!
It has only been three hours, but the other party is completely planning to leave.
They have already understood Fang Yang's ability, so they can't
"Fang Yang, why don't you dig a bit more?"
One of them smiled and spoke to Fang Yang.
"Nothing else can be dug up. Me staying here won't serve any purpose."
Hearing the expert's suggestion, Fang Yang stated his meaning very bluntly.
If he continued to dig down, all he would dig up would be dirt, which had no meaning.
Although he had started the excavator just to dig dirt at the beginning, and even to create some show effects.
But today is different from the past; his digging is still very expensive.
Fang Yang's attitude was very clear. Seeing the experts not far away hesitating and frowning, he added another sentence: "Some things I say are all serious. Based on my judgment, there are indeed no more artifacts in this vicinity. Digging any further is just a waste of time."
After Fang Yang finished saying these words, a woman walked out from among them. That woman was very beautiful.
But the expression on her face was ice-cold.
"Thank you very much today."
As soon as the woman opened her mouth, Fang Yang associated her with the somewhat ordinary-looking domineering CEO from before, and guessed that this woman should be his wife.
Keep a distance from women, and keep an even greater distance from married women.
Fang Yang hadn't figured some things out yet, and almost immediately took a small step back.
"Young Lady, I should be the one saying thank you. If it weren't for your brother worrying because of me, he wouldn't have arranged for Mr. Fang Yang to come and help."
At this moment, another woman walked over.
The woman smiled and said to Fang Yang: "I'm really sorry, I forgot to introduce myself."
The work is almost finished, and now she comes to introduce herself—isn't that a bit late?
Fang Yang had a smile on his face, but he was constantly complaining in his heart.
Later, under the woman's introduction, Fang Yang realized that he seemed to have gotten something wrong.
It turned out that this woman in front of him, who could only be considered delicate, was the wife of that domineering CEO.
And the woman next to her, who was extremely beautiful but ice-cold, was the domineering CEO's cousin.
Even under the revelation of the CEO's wife, Fang Yang learned that this ice-cold woman was actually his loyal fan.
But even if he knew this, so what?
Fang Yang would not be moved by this in the slightest.
In Fang Yang's heart, besides treasures, there were only treasures.
After saying goodbye to the experts in this city and receiving the red envelope that the domineering CEO said he would give, they left.
When they got to the car, the cameraman couldn't stop swallowing hard several times.
"Brother, once the domineering CEO makes a move, you know what it's worth!"
"I originally thought that giving each of us tens of thousands of yuan was already very impressive, but I didn't expect him to give us 1.88 million each. If we could meet such big spenders more often in the future, how good that would be."
The cameraman was so moved he was almost in tears.
Fang Yang shrugged and didn't say anything, let alone that what he actually got wasn't 1.88 million, but 8.88 million.
However, the cameraman was simply too noisy.
If he didn't say something, he was afraid he would keep talking.
"It is said that the other party is a billionaire. A few million yuan is nothing but a drop in the bucket to him. Don't be so small-minded. Being happy for a while is enough. Shut up! Otherwise, I will replace you. Anyway, you probably have a few million in savings now; you probably don't want to live as a cameraman anymore!"
When saying these words, Fang Yang's tone was almost ice-cold.
And as soon as these words came out, the cameraman immediately covered his mouth with his hand.
No one in this world would complain about having too much money; he still has to save up for a wife.
These few million were earned by running around with Fang Yang. If he really changed jobs later, he probably wouldn't make this much money.
The cameraman was almost certain of this.
He stopped talking and turned to look at the driver: "Are you not planning to continue being a driver? Next time Boss Yang calls, should I just tell him to change drivers?"
"Driving makes me happy. Driving is my lifelong job. Even if someone drags me out of the car, I will climb back up to continue working. No one can stop me."
The driver looked straight ahead, without blinking.
Could he not know what the driver was thinking in his heart?
The cameraman couldn't help but grumble in his heart, but when he saw Fang Yang's gaze fall on him, he finally closed his eyes and didn't dare to say another word.
This time they went to a very remote small town.
The town was antique and full of Jiangnan charm.
The person receiving them was the mayor of this town.
He was wearing an ancient-style robe and round-rimmed glasses, looking gentle and reasonable.
"This must be Mr. Fang Yang. We have been waiting for a long time. Now, let's go have a meal with us first. Our fellow villagers have already set up a banquet for you at the restaurant."
