Xu House stores a complete range of stones, but not many.

It is quite sufficient to identify the types of materials and stones, but it is obviously not enough to practice and deal with them.

Xu Wen pondered for a moment and walked out the door.

Qiuqiu whined and jumped on his shoulders, snatching his clothes.

"You want to go too? Okay, let's go." This is obviously because Xu Wen hasn't come back for too long, Qiuqiu missed him.

Xu Wen smiled and touched the soft little head, put it on his shoulder, and carried it out the door.

He went to eat Roujiamo again, and the boss greeted him when he saw him: "Here, how many do you want this time?"

Xu Wen stretched out five fingers, and the boss said readily: "Okay, come soon!"

An aunt next to her said in surprise: "Young man may eat it!"

"That's right, I'm a regular customer and I often come here to buy breakfast. I really like to cook it for him, and it's so delicious!" The boss said with a smile while busying himself.

Xu Wenxiao, didn't say anything.

Xu Wen over there was a young man who was still growing up, and it was the time to eat the most. When he came back here, his appetite seemed to come back with him. It was just about five breakfasts.

And in the boss's opinion, he comes to eat every day, but in Xu Wen's place, this morning and the morning are actually separated by a whole world of life.

But this time he brought a Qiuqiu. He came over to grab him as soon as he started eating Qiuqiu. He hit the hairy nose several times, but Xu Wen pushed it away.

Finally, he was very helpless and said to the boss: "Can I buy a piece of meat if I add some money?"

"Okay!" The boss was smiling and watching him fight with Qiuqiu's wits and courage. He agreed very readily, cut a piece of pork belly and handed it to him on paper.

Qiuqiu ate in big mouthfuls, Xu Wen pushed its head: "Why are you so greedy?"

It didn't raise its head and continued to eat.

The aunt next to him said worriedly: "I heard from others that cats cannot eat salt."

"It's not very good to eat, but it's okay to eat it once occasionally." Xu Wen responded with a smile.

"When we were young, we were not a human being and cats were eaten, and we didn't see anything happening," said the boss.

"Yes, when I was a child, people couldn't eat such good meat. But now, they can't eat meat anymore. They have to eat cat food, dozens of yuan per pound, which means that cats eat less." The aunt said in a nagging manner, "But eating cat food can still live longer, right?"

"Of course, people now live much longer than before."

"Yes, I'm almost sixty, and I feel like I'm still a young man!"

"Aunt Chen, you..."

"how?"

“…It’s really young!”

The cool breeze blew gently, and the fishy smell by the river filled the moist air. Xu Wen asked and answered questions and answered the street stall owner and neighbors, and felt particularly comfortable and happy. A sharpener next to him dragged his long shouts and passed by them.

His clothes were a little dirty, but the clothes were clothes, and the pants were trousers, which were neat and neat. His expression was also very comfortable, and his long shouting was full of energy.

It's indeed a different world.

Xu Wen stuffed the last bit of Roujiamo into his mouth, picked up the ball that was licking his claws, put it back on his shoulder, greeted the boss, turned around and left.

This time he did not ask Wenchuanhui or Lu Lihai for inquiries, but turned on his mobile phone and found a website.

It is an industry website, which is an internal communication type. It lists the addresses and contact information of many manufacturers in the category, and there are star ratings later.

Xu Wen chose a five-star rating, small and medium-sized stone factory, and he went there after calling a car.

The types and quality of goods in large factories may be higher, but the key service targets are usually equally large manufacturers and wholesalers, which may not be beneficial to him who go in his personal name.

The taxi stopped by a remote river in the suburbs. There were weeds around it, and a rusty iron gate blocked it, and the stone piled up behind the door could be vaguely seen.

It was piled up casually, with a piece of plastic cloth covered on it, and some were not even covered with cloth, and it was open in the open air.

Such a place, a five-star stone factory?

Could it be a rating for buying it?

Xu Wen got out of the car and saw a nameplate shaking beside the iron gate, as if it was about to fall off at any time. Xu Wen wiped the dust and saw the words "Qiyu" on it.

That's right, this is the name registered on the website.

Xu Wen paid the car and turned around and walked towards the door.

At this time, Qiuqiu suddenly grabbed his shoulder, looking a little nervous and excited.

He rarely sees Qiuqiu's reaction. What's wrong with this? What's wrong with this place?

A vine hanging next to the iron gate, with yellow flowers blooming on the vine, and tender loofahs have already emerged.

Xu Wen walked to the door and saw an old man sitting behind him reading a book with a kindle.

He wore reading glasses and looked very excited. Xu Wen didn't even notice when he came over.

Xu Wen stared at the e-book in his hand and looked at it for a while, raised his head and cleared his throat twice.

The old man didn't know what he saw, so he was amused and laughed haha, not paying attention to Xu Wen outside the door at all.

Xu Wen was helpless and shouted twice, but the other party still had no reaction at all.

Just as Xu Wen was about to raise his voice, he heard an extremely shrill cat moan, which scared him like a baby cry in the middle of the night.

Qiuqiu was on his shoulder, it could not have been called by it. Xu Wenxun lowered his head and saw a tabby cat tied behind the iron gate. It was big and fat, shouting at the doorman. There was something impatient on the face of a cat with no expression. Qiuqiu was excited when he heard the sound, and slipped down, bared his teeth at the cat through the iron gate, and waved his claws.

The concierge was shocked and looked up suddenly. When he saw Xu Wen, he looked down at Qiuqiu: "Yes, this cat is so brave."

"Uncle, I'll take a look at the stones." Xu Wen raised his voice.

"Oh, oh!" The gatekeeper took off his reading glasses and walked over to open the iron gate.

It is normal to raise dogs in this kind of place, but it is rare to keep cats, not to mention that the cat is tied up and kept like a dog.

"Be careful, it's a bit fierce." The old man at the door reminded Xu Wen and took him around the cat.

Qiuqiu followed Xu Wen, sat upright from a distance facing the tabby cat, looking at the other party curiously.

"Old man, your surname?" Xu Wen took out a pack of cigarettes and gave it to him.

The old man took out one casually and put it in his hand. Xu Wen lit the fire for him. The old man took a sip of happiness, slowly exhaled the smoke, and said, "My surname is Meng. Are you here to see Shi Tou? Only?"

"Yes, I'm a beginner and want to add a batch of stones to practice by myself." Xu Wen said, putting away the lighter. He doesn't smoke, and just carries cigarettes with him for socializing.

He said, looking at Mr. Meng's hand holding a cigarette. His skin was rough and his fingers were thick. He was a pair of hands that were used to doing work.

"Beginners? It's quite an expert to find this place."

"I learned carpentry before and met some teachers, and they told me a website."

"Oh, serial. How did you think of coming to do masonry?"

"Wood, stone, mud and water are all related to architecture, what I want to do is traditional architecture."

"Wow, this question is very big. There are quite a few people who are interested in this now, but just learn to beat the nail on the head. How can I start from such a fundamental point?" Mr. Meng said slowly.

"Theoretical work is also very important, but I still want to try it myself." Xu Wen's tone was calm.

"The masonry is much more laborious than the carpenter. Are you ready?" asked Mr. Meng.

"It's ready." Xu Wen said.

At this time, Uncle Meng had already taken him outside a warehouse. The rolling gate of the warehouse was half open, and only some light was faintly exposed. I couldn't see clearly what was inside.

Uncle Meng walked over and pulled hard, and the sky shone in.

The shelves extend from the front of their eyes, almost endless; the shelves are filled with various colors of stone, like mountains and seas.

The iron gate slid down with a harsh sound, and the sunlight gradually illuminated the front shelf from bottom to top.

A very clear water-blue ripples suddenly appeared in the center of the shelf. Xu Wen's mind was filled with inspiration and a word blurted out:

"Tianhe Stone!"
Chapter completed!
