Chapter 107: Attention from the President of the Woodcarving Association
This fallen Liaodong oak tree grew straight, which greatly reduced the difficulty of cutting.
With Brother Nan's extraordinary physical strength, it didn't take long for him to cut the more than ten-meter-high tree into five logs.
Each section is more than 2 meters long, which is just the length that can be accommodated in the cabin of a pickup truck.
"Thank you for your hard work." Li Mu unscrewed a bottle of water and handed it to Brother Nan.
"You're sensible!" Brother Nan grinned, took the water and drank it in one gulp.
"Shall we move it to the car?" Brother Nan stuffed the empty water bottle into his coat pocket.
"Won't you take a break?"
"I told you not to underestimate me." Brother Nan walked to a log, picked it up with a "hey", his little face flushed red.
The density of Quercus liaotungensis is high and it is heavier than other trees.
Li Mu quickly stepped forward and caught the other end of the log.
"I can carry it!"
"I know." Li Mu put the log on his shoulders and looked at Brother Nan's flushed face. "The road in the forest is not easy to walk on. It will be safer if we carry it together."
"Tell me if you feel tired halfway." Brother Nan stopped objecting and turned to Li Mu and said.
"it is good."
Brother Nan walked in front carrying one end of the log, and Li Mu followed behind carrying the other end, walking towards the car parked outside the woods.
The cubs were not idle either. Yogurt, the wolf cub, and the tiger cub followed Li Mu with Gastrodia elata in their mouths.
They also wanted to move the logs at first, but after trying a few times and finding that the logs did not move at all, they gave up decisively and chose to move the Gastrodia elata instead.
The little golden eagles were even more powerful. They grabbed a piece of Gastrodia elata in each claw and flew directly to the location of the car.
By the time Li Mu put a piece of log into the carriage, the little golden eagle had already made two trips back and forth.
This aroused the competitive psychology among the animals. The kitten put the Gastrodia elata next to the car, turned around and ran into the woods. The tiger cub and the wolf cub followed the kitten.
"Hey, I think these kids will become great in the future. They are all strong laborers." Brother Nan picked up the Gastrodia elata that the kids had put beside the car and put it into the bag.
Li Mu nodded in agreement.
"Hurry up! Let's continue." Brother Nan put Tianma into the back seat of the car, "Don't let the kids outdo you!"
After saying that, Brother Nan turned and ran into the woods.
Li Mu smiled and followed.
This is also a good strong laborer.
In the atmosphere of competition, the boys had already transported all the Gastrodia elata and built a small pile next to the pickup truck.
Suo Ran led a group of cubs to pick up the cut branches on the ground.
"Master Yogurt, we don't need those branches."
"why?"
"The branches are too thin to be used as wood."
“You can light a fire.”
After the kitten finished speaking, it lowered its head, picked up a branch, and dragged it aside.
The kids have already picked up a bunch.
"Oh, Yogurt, do you want to take the branch back as well?"
"Well, Yogurt wants to use these branches to make a fire."
"You are a good little cat." Brother Nan glanced at Li Mu, "You haven't remembered it yet, have you?"
Li Mu pursed his lips, feeling ashamed.
Brother Nan thought Li Mu’s expression was very funny and he grinned and laughed foolishly.
"Where are you going?" Li Mu saw three little golden eagles grabbing branches with their claws and about to fly away.
"Send the branches home." The little golden eagle stopped, tilted its head and looked at Li Mu and said, "The car is full and there is no room for branches."
"What is the little golden eagle going to do?" Brother Nan saw this scene and turned to ask Li Mu.
"They saw that the truck couldn't hold any more branches, so they wanted to take them home directly."
"Stupid, it will take so many trips to transport this, just don't move yet."
Brother Nan turned around to get the chainsaw, walked to the branch, asked the cubs to stay away, and started cutting.
In a short while, the messy and slender branches were cut into small pieces 30 cm long.
Brother Nan took out a picnic blanket from the canvas bag, put the branches in it, stacked them neatly, wrapped them up and tied a knot.
"This is great. We can finish the transportation in one trip. If you are tired on the road, you three can take a break and take a breath." Brother Nan clapped his hands and looked back at Li Mu.
"awesome."
Brother Nan chuckled, and was very satisfied with the praise from his younger brother.
When we returned to the forest ranger's yard and moved the wood into the yard, the sky had turned dark red.
Li Mu originally wanted to process the wood to build a new nest the next day, but looking at the pairs of bright and expectant eyes, he couldn't bear to spoil their fun, so he had to work overtime.
Fortunately, we have Brother Nan, a strong laborer, to help.
The previous ranger was probably a wood carving enthusiast and left behind a complete set of tools for processing wood.
Li Mu moved the tools to the yard and officially started work.
[The anchor can also do carpentry work? ]
[The person above is new, right? He has made a wooden nest with a golden eagle before. 】
[I feel nothing when I watch the anchor now, because I admit that I am a loser.]
[Sure enough, serious men are so handsome! This focused look, the muscle lines of the arms when carrying wood, I can't stand it, come on, a man! ]
【Xiao Nan, don't be a fangirl. 】
During this time, most people were free and watching the live broadcast leisurely.
Inside the office of the president of the Woodcarving Association.
An elderly man in his sixties put down the carving knife in his hand, took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes, stretched, and looked at a small wooden sculpture on the table.
The wood carving has not been finely carved yet, it is just a rough outline, and from the appearance, it looks like a kitten.
After watching for a while, the old man picked up the mobile phone beside him and turned on the live broadcast.
Some time ago, he followed a forest ranger's account. Watching the forest patrols and daily animal life became the best way for him to relax.
And the animals around this anchor are very smart, especially the cat, which is very spiritual.
"Hmm? Interesting."
The old man clicked into Li Mu’s live broadcast room and found that he was processing wood. He murmured to himself and watched with interest.
The round logs were processed into boards, and Li Mu cut various notches on the boards. He would take out a few boards from time to time to compare the notches.
[Why do you have so many cracks on a good piece of wood? ]
[That's right, aren't we building a nest? Won't it leak if there are so many holes? ]
[Don't talk nonsense, I guess this should be a mortise and tenon structure, right? ]
[Yes, this is a mortise and tenon joint. Have you ever practiced carpentry before? ]
[I guessed it right, it's really mortise and tenon! The guy above, judging from your ID name, are you from the Woodcarving Association? ]
【Woodcarving Association Wu Jinsheng? 】
[Oh my god! I checked and found out that Wu Jinsheng is the president of the Longguo Woodcarving Association! ]
[What?! A big shot like this also watches live broadcasts? ]
[Don’t call me a big shot. I’m just an old man who has been in the wood carving industry for a long time. I watch the live broadcast so as not to be left behind by the times. I can be old but my heart cannot be old (smile)]
[Oh my god, the boss replied to me, front row photo! ]
The atmosphere in the live broadcast room was suddenly ignited by the arrival of a heavyweight figure, and the ranking of the live broadcast continued to rise.
Li Mu didn't know that a master figure had come to the live broadcast room. He had devoted himself to processing wood.
The plane scraped across the wooden board, making a rhythmic rustling sound.
The Kittens and the Cubs squatted beside Li Mu, looking up at him working, and were unwilling to leave even though their bodies were covered in sawdust.
"call"
Li Mu blew at the last piece of wood, and wood chips flew everywhere.
All the wood has been processed, and all that remains is to adjust the details and then assemble them.
"Why are you so close?" Li Mu bent down to clean the sawdust off the kittens and cubs.
"Is this okay?"
"Well, everything has been processed, and all that's left is for you to assemble."
"We have a new nest!" The cubs happily circled around the wooden board.
"Master Yogurt, do you want a wooden nest?" Li Mu stroked the kitten, "I'll make one for you."
"No, I have a bed to sleep in."
Li Mu's lips curled up into a smile, the kitten still likes to cling to people.
Seeing that he was busy, Brother Nan volunteered to go to the kitchen to cook.
Li Mu took a break and took out his phone to look at the comments.
"Sorry, I just saw it." Li Mu flipped to Wu Jinsheng's comment, "Mr. Wu, right? This is just my hobby. I have never learned carpentry."
[Never learned it? Although mortise and tenon joints are not difficult to make, most people cannot make them without practicing for two years. ]
"I just loved reading when I was in college. I read everything. I'm sorry that I was not presentable in your eyes."
[You can carve like this without any training. You are very talented. I have been observing your hands and found that they are very steady. Are you interested in wood carving? ]
In the office, Wu Jinsheng's heart was pounding, as if he had discovered an incredible talent.
