    When Zhao Xueyi and Lao Wu walked into the room, they happened to see Chu Chen with a sad face and felt a little strange. It wasn't until Zhou Wenping explained with a smile that he understood what was going on.  Zhao Xueyi smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Old Wu, congratulations! It looks like I'm about to hug my nephew!" Hearing such a happy event, the haze in his heart was relieved a lot.  Uncle Wu laughed loudly and said: "Thank you for your kind words, but this matter still depends on Xiao Chen and the others." At this point, Uncle Wu turned to Chu Chen and said with a smile: "You must be angry then.  !¡± ¡°¡­¡± Hearing this, Chu Chen was so embarrassed that he didn¡¯t know what to say. Everyone else laughed when they saw Chu Chen¡¯s expression.  After a while, Uncle Wu asked Zhao Xueyi: "How is it? Did the stall owner say anything?" Zhao Xueyi shook his head sadly and said: "He said this thing was recovered from a garbage recycling station. He said  I don¡¯t know who the original owner is!¡± Uncle Wu frowned and said, ¡°That won¡¯t be easy! But if we are destined to meet you thousands of miles away, you will definitely find your elder¡¯s home address in the future.  " Zhao Xueyi shook his head and sighed: "Forget it, the elder I want to see most is probably dead now, so let it go!" Then, he said to Chu Chen: "Little  Chen, I want to ask you something. If you want to change hands, can you transfer this bronze mirror to me?" Chu Chen solemnly agreed: "Okay, I promise you!" Zhao Xueyi clasped his fists and thanked you: "Thank you.  ! Thank you! " After a while, Lao Wu said: "I brought the potion for cleaning the red paint, but this potion is a bit thick and needs to be diluted at least fifty times."  He took a glass bottle from the plastic bag in his hand and put it on the table.  Chu Chen nodded and said: "Okay, I remember it." Although cleaning is not difficult, it is very tedious, and in order to avoid causing damage to the bronze mirror during cleaning, it must be cleaned bit by bit carefully.  , Therefore, Chu Chen planned to clean up after returning home.  So he put away the bottle of potion.  Afterwards, everyone chatted for a while. When the time was almost up, Chu Chen took Uncle Wu and drove to Uncle Wu's house.  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ In the evening, Chu Chen returned to Yuhuating with some physical and mental exhaustion. He had no choice but to do it. Aunt Wu¡¯s interrogation was really too much for him.  He also tried his best to pass it. In just two or three hours, he was more tired than solving stones all day long.  After drinking a cup of tea and saying hello to Hu Yong and the others, Chu Chen came to the workroom and took out the bronze mirror and potion from his pocket.  Ready to start cleaning the red paint.  Because there is gold and silver on the back of the mirror, if the potion is not mixed well, it is likely to wash away the gold, silver and even the pattern, so Chu Chen first prepared a certain proportion of the potion, and there was red paint on the front of the mirror.  Try scrubbing the area first.  Until the potion with the best effect and the most satisfying effect is prepared.  The potion that was finally mixed was very weak, so it was probably just this potion.  It takes several cleanings to remove the red paint in one place. However, for Chu Chen, time is not a problem. The key is to clean the bronze mirror intact to achieve his goal, even if there is a little  Loss, for him, needs to be avoided at all costs.  Chu Chen dipped in the potion and scrubbed gently, bit by bit, until suddenly a part glowing with gold and silver was exposed in front of his eyes and stopped.  Chu Chen looked at it carefully and found out that the edge of the bronze mirror was crossed with scroll strips. The gold and silver wire embedded on it was as thin as hair. The gold and silver interlacing workmanship was extremely precise, and it was indeed a work of art.  Gold and silver engraving is a craft in which gold and silver wires or sheets are made into various patterns and embedded in bronze vessels as decoration. It first appeared in the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period and became quite popular in the middle of the Warring States Period.  Seeing such exquisite patterns, Chu Chen was already imagining how exquisite this bronze mirror would be when all the red paint was washed away.  It is estimated that the red paint on the mirror will take several days to be cleaned, and because it may damage the original leather shell of the bronze mirror, it is impossible for Chu Chen to use potion to clean the red paint all the time. When the time is almost done, the bronze mirror will still need to be cleaned.  Soak it in white vinegar prepared with water for a period of time, then the cleaning can be completed completely.  Therefore, it was obvious that the cleaning of this bronze mirror could not be completed in a short time, and Chu Chen had no intention of becoming fat in one bite. Seeing that the time was almost up, he put down his work and put the bronze mirror in the studio.  He put the small safe in his room and went back to his room to sleep.   The next day, Chu Chen sat with Mr. Liu for a while, and then drove to the airport to pick up the beautiful lady.?Master.  The jade carving master introduced by Qiang Zhaojun is named Gu Jianming. He learned jade carving from his teacher at the age of eighteen. His talent and hard work have made him, now only twenty-nine, already very skilled in jade carving.  Exquisite, comparable to a master-level carver.  Gu Jianming¡¯s appearance is very ordinary. The only thing that remains fresh in people¡¯s minds is his piercing eyes, which make people unforgettable after seeing him.  Also coming to Beijing this time was his wife and three-year-old daughter. I heard from Qiang Zhaojun that they were planning to live together in the capital.  Chu Chen welcomed this. He also wanted his family to move their household registration to the capital immediately, so that the chance of Gu Jianming resigning would be smaller in the future.  We took Gu Jianming and his family to the house arranged for them. It was a four-bedroom apartment with an area of ??more than 160 square meters. The decoration was very grand and high-end, and Gu Jianming and his family immediately fell in love with it.  Originally, Chu Chen planned to let Gu Jianming rest for a day before discussing the work contract, but Gu Jianming insisted on going now, so Chu Chen took him to the store, while his wife and daughter stayed at home to prepare and salute.  The location of the community is not far from Chu Chen¡¯s shop. It only takes about ten minutes to walk.  When he arrived at the store, Chu Chen first introduced everyone, and then took Gu Jianming around the store. Gu Jianming was also quite satisfied with his future workplace, and then Chu Chen signed an agreement with him.  a labor contract.  Gu Jianming's salary is also based on the basic salary plus share model. Every time he sells a piece of jade, he will receive a certain percentage of the profit based on the jade. The converted salary is still quite high, and he also has a house.  It can be said that the welfare is no worse than that of Qiang Zhaojun.  In addition, Chu Chen showed Gu Jianming some jadeite materials, which made his eyes light up immediately, and he suddenly felt that his decision to come to Beijing this time was very wise.  After signing the labor contract, Gu Jianming immediately got into work. He looked at Chu Yulan's piece of ice-green apple, and after pondering for a while, he said: "Boss, our store is newly opened, so it must be Some common jadeite styles are full of spectacle, so I think it¡¯s better to make bracelets first and then some jadeite jewelry!¡± Chu Chen nodded and said, ¡°Master Gu, you have more experience in this area than me, you can figure it out yourself. , before using the ice material, you only need to report it to Manager Zhou. If you need glass material, just tell me. " Having said that, there are still some rules, such as jade raw materials, in the morning. Take it out and be sure to put it back in the safe before you go home from get off work.  Moreover, in addition to Chu Chen himself, two people must enter the vault together. There are cameras recording this, and Chu Chen is not afraid that they will violate the regulations.  By doing this, Chu Chen didn¡¯t really think that they would be stealing, but that there would be no rules. If there were no rules, the store wouldn¡¯t last long.  As an employee, you definitely hope to gain the trust of your boss, and Gu Jianming is certainly no exception. He said happily: "Thank you, boss. I would like to ask, when will our store be opened?" Chu Chen replied: "We  The store officially opens on New Year's Day, so I have to ask Master Gu to hurry up and make more jade jewelry." Gu Jianming frowned slightly and said, "In this case, time is a bit tight. I alone may not be able to satisfy us.  The demand of the store. And if it is glass jewelry, it will be more time-consuming. Boss, you don¡¯t want to not have any glass jewelry on the day of opening. That would be a pity.¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry about this.  " Chu Chen waved his hand and said: "The master I hired from Pingzhou will be here in two days. As for the glass planting, it doesn't matter. I can ask others for support first. You can concentrate on carving ice now.  Just plant jade.¡± ¡°Okay!¡± Gu Jianming nodded and said, ¡°I¡¯d like to ask you, boss, which master you hired?¡± ¡°His name is Gu Qifei, do you know him?¡±  It's him. Not only do we know each other, we're also friends!" Chu Chen was slightly startled when he heard this. He didn't expect that the two of them would be friends, but this is undoubtedly better. You must know that many capable people have flaws.  Arrogance, Chu Chen was originally worried that the two of them would not get along, but now it seems that there is no such worry.  Time soon reached noon, and Chu Chen went to the "Bazhen Jade Food" to set up a table, which was regarded as a welcoming banquet to welcome Gu Jianming's family.  After the meal, Chu Chen asked Gu Jianming to officially start work tomorrow. After the family left, he said to Zhou Wenping and Lao Wu: "This time I bought a total of four houses in the community where Gu Jianming lives. If you are willing, you can also  Let's live together and go to work like this.A little more convenient.  " Zhou Wenping and Lao Wu, one lives in the west of the city and the other lives in the north of the city. It takes more than an hour to get to work every day, which is very inconvenient. Chu Chen never thought about this before, and he didn't think of it until he bought a house for Gu Jianming.  Come. Thinking that it would be hard and time-consuming for the two of them to go back and forth to work every day, he simply bought two more houses. "This" Zhou Wenping began to ponder after hearing this. He was also present when Gu Jianming signed the contract just now.  , knowing that house is considered a benefit
