Chapter 46: December 1995 sky light
December 1995 sky light
After wandering around in the electric city for a long time, I made a choice of a Kodak camera with a price of more than 900 yuan. It is not a new model, but it is easy to use and solid, and it is most suitable for beginners like me.
I bought two large boxes of film very extravagantly. The boss said that everyone else bought two rolls of film. The lavish customer like me who directly bought 60 film rolls never met once or twice a month. He gave I have a very good discount.
Cameras are available, film is available, but where to develop photos becomes the question.
According to Liang Jiangbo, the photos taken are of course taken to the photo studio for development, but how could I send my own film to the photo studio? I'm planning to take pictures of things in the opposite world. Those things are shameful, so I can't send them to a photo studio for washing.
I asked the owner of the camera, and he scratched his head and said that it’s not that difficult to develop photos, just get a darkroom in his own house, and small places like the stairwell and the bathroom are fine.
He gave me an address and asked me to find someone special to get the scriptures.
The matter was resolved smoothly, I successfully learned the basic method of developing photos, and I also bought all the items I needed. The boss who taught me to develop photos told me that the skills were not good enough to waste a lot of photos at the beginning, but that is normal, As long as you are proficient, there will be no problems in the future.
It took me a day to buy a camera and learn how to develop photos. Liang Jiangbo started to say that there is no need to learn how to develop photos. In the end, the boss was more serious than me when he taught me, and he did it more carefully than me. We developed all the photos we just took. Now, the effect is very good, he immediately developed a strong interest in taking pictures and developing photos, shouting that I must let him play when my darkroom is built.
On Sunday, I was relaxing, eating, drinking and shopping. I was drooling at the game console when I was visiting the Electric City. Liang Jiangbo also stared at the stars. I said I had the money to buy it. He was very moved, but he shook his head resolutely.
Liang Jiangbo said that it would take too much time to buy and play the game. The most important thing now is to prepare for the exam. It is best to buy the game console after we go to the university after the college entrance examination. Otherwise, it will affect our plan to study in Shanghai.
I agree with Liang Jiangbo's point of view, every time I go to the arcade to play games, I don't want to go home. If I have one at home, I definitely don't want to sleep, I just want to play games, that's definitely not good.
I didn’t buy the game console, but I found a lot of good treasures in the electrical city, such as a desk lamp with a battery, a large battery that can drive the electrical appliance after charging, and several practical household appliances. I plan to take them home and try them out first. For a period of time, if it is reliable, take it to the opposite world and enjoy the modern life.
I bought so many things that Liang Jiangbo's father's car could barely fit. After all the things were delivered to my house, I immediately cleaned and opened a small room in my house that used to store waste and set up a darkroom.
Dark bags, developing tanks, thermometers, strings for drying photos, bamboo clips and other things are all arranged, and all kinds of containers are in place. Make a batch and let them all dry before going to bed contentedly.
The next morning, I could have taken a leave of absence to sleep in, but I wanted to show Liang Jiangbo the photos I washed overnight, so I cheered up and ran to school with the photos on my back.
"It's so beautiful!" Liang Jiangbo couldn't get enough of a thick stack of photos, especially a photo of me sitting on the stone railing by the pool with his shoulders and backs. We laughed very happily. It was very warm and pure. People are full of joy when they look at it, and we both especially like that photo.
It's a pity that my enlarger is the most common, and I can't make the photo too big, otherwise I really want to get a super large photo frame and hang it on the wall.
Like me, Liang Jiangbo likes to develop photos in the darkroom, because it is really fun, and many operations have to be groped in the dark. It was uncomfortable at first, but we got started very quickly, especially me, it only took one night. It was so easy, I even enjoyed the feeling of developing my own photos, it was like magic.
I was very sleepy at noon, so I went home after eating a few mouthfuls of food and then fell asleep. Liang Jiangbo played in the darkroom all afternoon, and he was reluctant to come out when it was time to go to school, which made us almost late.
My dad and mom were curious about my little darkroom, they were confused about how I turned film into negatives and how I developed photos, but they both loved my new camera, and I gave them each They took a lot of photos, and after they developed them, they liked it so much that they kept talking about getting a photo album to save these beautiful photos.
My family used to be very poor, and there were very few photos. We didn’t even have a special album. All the photos were in old books. Now there are so many photos suddenly, it’s really hard not to feel emotional.
I didn't hand in the large amount of cash left over from selling gold coins, but I made a lot of small handicrafts in my spare time, and those handicrafts added a lot of turnover to my commissary.
I have now started manipulating glass and stone fusion, because a recent book I read made me realize that the composition of various minerals is different, and there are many similarities.
For example, most of the sand and stones are mainly composed of silicon dioxide. When the silicon dioxide crystallizes perfectly, it is crystal; when the silicon dioxide is gelled and dehydrated, it is agate; the hydrocolloid of silicon dioxide solidifies to form opal; two Silica grains and their fineness can form chalcedony, flint and secondary quartzite.
With such a basic concept, I have more experience in making crystals than before. I can extract clear and pure crystals directly from the sand, remove impurities in the glass and then crystallize it. Really love to my heart.
I now have the potential to make other gems, and I guess I won't have to worry about my income in the future.
The first time I made jewelry and put it on the counter of the commissary were 40 "jade rings". The raw materials were granite and marble picked up from the waste of the county decoration store. A large bag of stones condensed into one in my hand. A round long stone rod, and then remove impurities and texture according to my intention, and become delicate, translucent and smooth.
The small stone beads fell off the stone rod and turned into a ring in my hand. The color that was too light became dark and gorgeous when it came to the dark stone full of "impurities" as if it had been "smudged". A sleek and beautiful round ring is made.
Ten round rings are made, with slightly different sizes, and completely different colors and patterns. Because the ingredients are very different, they don’t even look the same.
In addition to the round ring, I also made twenty jade rings inlaid with crystals of various colors. The special thing is that these "crystals" are firmly adhered to the inside of the jade ring, and it is difficult to see the faint grooves on the edge if you don't look carefully.
Ordinary people will only think that the small round crystal or glass is carefully glued into the ring, but that is just an illusion. The boundary between the crystal and the ring is very clear, and the so-called adhesive glue does not exist at all.
The last ten rings of various shapes and colors are made at will, and they are most imaginative: some are directly half stone and half glass; some are two thin stone strips nested together in a spiral shape, when gently pulled They can also move, as if they were carved out of a whole piece of jade by ingenious craftsmen; some rings are clear and transparent, but a small oval pebble is inlaid on the part where the ring was originally inlaid with gemstones. The translucent rings are full of contrast when placed together.
These rings were so popular that I sold more than half of them by the end of the month, and instead of selling the rest, I re-melted them into stone and waited for the next time I made a new ring.
"Young man, isn't this jade of yours natural?" When I was visiting the store, a middle-aged woman held a ring in her hands and scrutinized it for a long time before asking me.
"Do you think you can buy top-quality natural jade for 20 yuan at the counter in the canteen?" I asked her. She blushed and didn't reply, so she bought two favorite styles and left.
Many people who buy a ring ask if the ring is real jade or a real gem. My parents and I answered the same way: "No, it's fake."
Then most of them ask what material it is and how to make it. of.
The answer is: "I don't know."
The rings that our family sells are so beautiful that as soon as you wear them, you know that they are definitely not glass or plastic, so people will subconsciously imagine whether the rings in their hands are real jade and gemstones, and whether they are actually valuable. Liancheng.
how can that be possible?
For twenty dollars, is it possible to buy hundreds of thousands of dollars elsewhere?
Thought and knew it was impossible.
However, the rings in my family are really beautiful, and each one is unique and unique. If you don't buy it at the time you like it, you will probably never see it again in the future.
On the other hand, my home is also changing these days.
The first is my yard. The original rammed-earth yard used only messy blue bricks to pave a small road leading to the gate. That road has now become a stone road: a whole block of 14 meters long, 1 meter 5 wide, 2 meters wide. The decimeter-thick curved gray slate extends from the door of my house to the gate. The slate is placed directly on the soft soil in the yard, with a slight bulge in the middle and a shallow anti-slip texture.
The courtyard wall of my house has also changed. From the outside, it is still a slightly tattered red brick wall, but its height has risen by half a meter without knowing it. Any textures and seams firmly cover the entire yard.
The rammed earth that was previously compacted in the yard has now been dug loose with shovels, fermented fertilizer has been applied, and flower seedlings have been planted. There are also stone-made tables and stone-made chairs in the area surrounding the flowerbed, and there are more conspicuous places in the yard. A stone flowerpot with flower seedlings planted in it.
When my parents saw the changes in our yard, they agreed with me telling them to "no longer invite others to visit". They can see the changes in our house every day, and our house and yard are all there. "Growing" is too appalling to outsiders, so it's better not to publicize it.
Our house has not changed much on the ground. The walls and floors are getting closer and closer to enamel. From the extra basement entrances in several rooms, we know that there will be more underground parts in our house in the near future.
My dad didn't know enough about my "extraordinary powers", but he was very supportive when I turned the original wooden windows into stone windows and integrated the glass with the windows.
The windows that had been ventilated for many years, the biting cold wind blows in every autumn and winter night, and now there is finally no need to worry.
The glass window integrated with the stone window frame is clear and translucent, and the top is spotless. It is almost impossible to find the existence of glass without looking carefully. Not only does it make the light in the home brighter, but when the sun is full, the home becomes warmer than ever.
From the outside, my house is still dilapidated and not worth mentioning, but if you enter the yard and look from the inside, then my house is clean and tidy, and it is quite comfortable to live in.
That's what I'm looking for. It's not very good on the outside, but one day it's going to be luxurious and beautiful on the inside.
Thanks to the super powers that I have been slowly improving, it allows me to repair my broken home in a way that only exists in fantasy, I even thought about replacing all the materials in the whole house with clear crystal, I want to live in "Crystal Palace" must be a very magical thing.
Of course, those things can only be thought about. My actions are already surprising enough. Liang Jiangbo noticed the changes in my house. I used "concrete pouring" to mix the stone road in the yard, and the shape is unique. Stone tables and chairs are also blocked for other reasons, but if my house is converted into a "Crystal Palace" or an "Alien Base", I am afraid that he will find the problem no matter how slow he is.
