"Brother Chao, if you can really make it on the spot, I'll eat this basket!”
"Brother Chao, are you a craftsman?”
Wang Chao did not explain. Instead, he stood beside the bamboo forest and sized up the bamboo in front of him.
"Then I'll make a bet with everyone. I'll make a bamboo basket to hold mushrooms in front of everyone.”
"Moreover, it was before the sun rose.”
When the netizens in front of the screen heard Wang Chao's words, they couldn't help but gasp.
It was already half-past six, and the sun would probably rise at around seven.
In other words, Wang Chao had to finish making a bamboo basket in half an hour?
This was an almost impossible task.
"Brother Chao, aren't we bragging too much?”
"Why is the sky so dark? It's because someone is blowing on the ground.”
"We won't be able to end it later."
"Half an hour to make a bamboo basket? I can change my name to Bamboo Basket."
"Brother Chao, I'll bet with you. If you can really make a bamboo basket and two rockets before the sun rises!”
"I'll bet too. Don't just fire two rockets, just fire ten!”
"I bet twenty rockets, but if you can't make it, Brother Chao, take off your shirt and pretend to be a mushroom.”
"Tsk tsk, so you guys want to see Brother Chao take off his clothes. I want to see it too (shy).”
Wang Chao wasn't worried about taking off his clothes at all!
He now had the skills of a grandmaster craftsman. Wouldn't it be as easy as a child folding a paper plane to quickly weave a bamboo basket on the spot?
Wang Chao nodded at the camera and smiled.""Sure, if I really can't make a bamboo basket, I'll take off my shirt and put mushrooms inside.”
"Unfortunately, you won't be able to see it.”
After saying that, Wang Chao walked directly to a bamboo. He bent his index finger and gently knocked on the bamboo joint with his knuckles."This kind of bamboo is unique to our Cliff Mountain. It is called Water Bamboo.”
"Water bamboo is also known as smoke bamboo. The thickness of the bamboo wall is moderate, and the texture is soft but very strong. It is an excellent weaving material.”
"Today, I'll use this bamboo to weave a basket.”
Wang Chao used a chopper to cut the water bamboo.
Although everyone knew that bamboo could be used to weave many different things, in the eyes of outsiders, there was too much difference between thick bamboo and delicate bamboo weaving.
It was simply impossible to imagine what kind of process he had to go through in the middle.
In fact, to weave a bamboo basket, the first step was to split the thick bamboo into strips.
An ordinary knitting craftsman would have many tools to help them complete this step, but Wang Chao only had a chopper in his hand.
However, this was enough for Wang Chao.
Wang Chao first cut the thick bamboo into sections.
Most of the bamboo joints were about a meter long, and a few were about half a meter long.
Then, Wang Chao looked around and saw two big rocks beside him. The two big rocks were tightly stuck together, but there was still a gap in the middle.
Wang Chao placed the chopper between two large rocks. After the chopper was embedded, it remained motionless and was very firm.
Then, he freed his hands and took the bamboo joint that he had just cut off and knocked it hard against the blade of the chopper.
The bamboo joint immediately split into two in the direction of the blade.
"Digging? You can chop it into bamboo strips without any tools?"
After that, Wang Chao repeated this action.
For the first move, Wang Chao deliberately slowed down for the netizens to see the details. After that, all his movements were very fast.
In just a few dozen seconds, the bamboo joint in Wang Chao's hand had already been divided into a dozen bamboo strips for weaving!
"Oh my god, what just happened? At this speed, I thought I was driving 5.0 acceleration!”
Wang Chao did not slack off. He quickly split all the remaining bamboo joints into bamboo strips.
In just a few minutes, the thick water bamboo that had been standing in front of everyone had now become thin bamboo strips, all piled up on the big rock.
The netizens in the live broadcast room were all shocked. There was not a single bullet comment for a few minutes.
Everyone was so shocked by Wang Chao's hand speed that they didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, Wang Chao's voice pulled them back to reality.
"The bamboo strips have been chopped. Next, I have to weave. First, I have to weave the bottom of the basket.”
"Digging! Brother Chao, you're too fast!”
"You used a chopper to cut out the bamboo strips?!”
Fu Sheng gifted two rockets and left a message: Brother Chao, I'm impressed. Two rockets.
Eat Orange Skin tipped ten rockets and left a message: Brother Chao is willing to lose. Forgive me for being young and frivolous.
Wang Chao was busy weaving the bottom of the bamboo basket with both hands. When he heard the notification of the reward in the live broadcast room, he looked up and said,"I haven't finished weaving this bamboo basket. I've only just finished making the bamboo strips.”
OrangePeelEat: " Brother Chao, I've learned a lot from your speed in splitting bamboo strips. You'll definitely be able to finish the next weaving. I'll admit defeat first and not lose face!”
Of course, there were still people who didn't tip him. They stubbornly insisted that Wang Chao couldn't complete the mission.
"We bet with Brother Chao that we will finish weaving the bamboo basket before the sun rises. I'll wait a little longer. I still don't believe that it will be that fast!”
Just as the bullet screen popped up, Wang Chao picked up the bottom part and showed it to the drone.
"Everyone, look. Isn't it not as difficult as you think?”
The drone's high-definition camera showed Wang Chao's woven bottom at a glance. Although Wang Chao's hand speed was very fast, the weaving at the bottom was not fooled. Instead, it was very detailed and neat.
"Brother Chao, this isn't difficult?"
"Fortunately, I didn't make a bet. If I did, I would definitely lose.”
Wang Chao looked at the bottom that he had made and said,"The starting part is done. Next, we have to weave the other parts of the bamboo basket.”
"Actually, no matter what kind of bamboo ware you weave, there are three processes in common.”
"Bottoming, weaving, and sewing."
"Because of the time constraint, I will show everyone the simplest knitting method today.”
Wang Chao was using the Warp and Weft Weaving Method, which was based on the horizontal and vertical directions. The pattern was formed by weaving continuously according to the rules of " Weft on Warp " and " Warp on Weft ".
Although this pattern was the most basic and simple, it could make the bamboo strips more "pressed" together, making the woven product stronger and stronger.
Soon, the rough shape of a bamboo basket was completed in Wang Chao's hands.
Then, Wang Chao began to sew the edges of the basket. After he finished sewing the edges, he made two sturdy 'straps' from the short bamboo strips that he had just chopped. Then, he tied the bamboo strips to the basket.
This way, he could carry the bamboo basket on his back and enter the mountain, freeing his hands to pick mushrooms.
Wang Chao clapped his hands and looked up. The sun had not risen yet.
"Alright, this bamboo basket is done.”
Some netizens looked at the time. It was only 6:50 p. m.
In other words, Wang Chao had only used ten minutes to make a bamboo basket!
"Oh my God, am I still dreaming?”
"I watched a documentary before and interviewed some craftsmen who made bamboo products. They needed at least two to three hours to make a basket."
Peachy gave him twenty rockets and left a message: "I'm willing to bet and admit defeat. From now on, Brother Chao will only obey you.”
Bamboo Backbasket tipped him ten shark fins and left a message: "I admit defeat. Brother Chao, I've changed my name.”
