The previous observation time was very short, and it was impossible to cover everything, so it was necessary to distinguish priorities in a short period of time.

At the beginning, Xu Wen spent a short time thinking about which side was the main and which side was the second, and where to focus on it.

In the end, 70 percent of his attention and memory were devoted to the main body of the pavilion, leaving only 30 percent of his mind to pay attention to the adjacent garden.

This does not mean that the garden is not important, but the pavilion model is more technical and represents the degree of completion of the work. The garden next to it is a "style rendering" of the entire model, and it is the soul of the model.

Now this is an exam, and the degree of completion is equivalent to the basic score, which must be obtained in hand. Stylistic rendering is an additional score, an opportunity to distance yourself from other candidates.

Xu Wen has taken the exam from childhood to adulthood, these are basic common sense for him.

Now what he has to do is the part of the additional points, how should this score be obtained......

Xu Wen placed the model in the center, took other materials to build a prototype of the frame, and began to think.

This architectural model is typical of the Jiangnan architectural style.

Gangnam architecture is very special.

It blends into the scene, and pays attention to the people in the scene.

Needless to say, the rich will carefully plan a place to build a garden, and integrate the house into the garden, and the scenery will be seen as soon as they move, and all the interests in the field of vision will be full of interest.

The poor don't have such a big place, don't think about the garden, but there is a lot of water in the south of the Yangtze River, they often build their houses by the water, take a section of the river, plant a willow, and put a lake stone, so that even if they are in the midst of hard work, they can take a little rest and change their mood.

Of course, this is also because Jiangnan Road itself is relatively rich, and compared to many other places, even if it is poor, it is limited.

It is very difficult to have such a mood to improve one's spiritual life without food and clothing.

The main part of the model they used to reproduce is a pavilion shaped like a flower hall. The pavilion is located on half of the lake, there is a pine in front of the court, and there is a wooden road behind the pavilion to connect with the water surface, walk on the wooden road, bend down to pick the lotus leaves next to it, and look up to meet the reed flowers on the lakeside.

There are stones on the lakeside, and there are orchids and willows on the side of the stones, which are scattered, and not only will not block each other, but will reflect each other.

The pavilion is very spacious, with a total of eight windows, and from different windows, you can see different views, like eight living paintings hanging on the wall that change with the four seasons.

Speaking of which, this design is somewhat similar to the Four Seasons Hall......

Thinking of Si Shitang, Xu Wen's heart suddenly moved, and a vivid picture appeared in his mind.

Earlier, he had no concept of Jiangnan-style architecture—all buildings—and the scene from the window of the Four Seasons Hall gave him his first impact.

For the first time in his life, he felt the strong beauty that seemed to freeze and flowed with endless vitality, and it left a deep impression.

The four-hour hall that he had left in his mind had some similarities with the model of this corner of the garden that he had engraved in his memory.

The Four Seasons Hall is exquisite, this pavilion is spacious, and the style is naturally different. In addition, there seemed to be something else in Sishitang, which made Xu Wen feel that there was more brilliance than this exquisite model, he felt a little, but it was indescribable for a while.

But it was clear that the garden was in tatters, as if it would collapse at any time, and in terms of gloss, it couldn't even compare to the model in front of me.

But......

The copper leaky pot next to the examiner is still dripping and falling, time is slowly but undoubtedly leaving, and every bit of Xu Wen's thinking represents a period of miss.

But he still didn't move.

The more times like this, the more you can't act rashly, and you have to think clearly before you can act.

The candidates around him were all busy, and the progress that was about the same as him quickly overtook him, and the ones behind him gradually caught up, but he didn't move, as if he was completely immersed in his own world.

I don't know how long it took for him to finally move.

He rearranged the elements that had been prepared and began to refine and recolor them.

The rough shape gradually becomes detailed and clear around the pavilion, and various elements such as plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum are distributed around the building, decorating with various colors.

Xu Wen's gaze fell on this model, but not entirely on it, more thoughts came from a distant place, materialized into a new shape, and fell in front of his eyes.

A stone, a willow, a flower and a grass, every element seems to have its own meaning, existence or non-existence, should be in the place where it is.

And this perfectly blended with the wood texture he had been exposed to before, as well as the feelings he remembered at Jinglin Temple.

It was as if he heard the sound of the water and smelled the wind.

A new garden has been built next to the pavilion, there is still a lake, there are still lotuses on the lake, there are still mountains and rocks on the lake, but there are more things, different from the appearance of the model, there are more changes.

The copper coloaner ticked and ticked, and the examiners walked around them, their eyes occasionally falling on Xu Wen and the work in his hand.

Sun Boran and the deputy examiner came again, and they made a normal tour.

Sun Boran also paid attention to Xu Wen, but he didn't stay on him too much, just looked at the halfway thing in his hand, and then looked back at the original model, his brows were deeply locked, as if he was not very happy.

However, the candidate was in the process of the exam, and he couldn't make any indications, so in the end, he just glared at Xu Wen fiercely, and brushed his sleeves away again.

It's still a sunny day, and the mid-autumn sun isn't so fierce, but the air around it is warm, making people feel comfortable.

But these apprentices in the workshop did not feel this way at all, they were all sweating, and their well-fitting undershirts had already been changed twice, and those who did not have that condition could only let the clothes dry and wet, wet and dry, and wear them until they were rancid.

There was a strange smell in the whole workshop, but both the apprentice and the examiner looked accustomed to it and did not feel uncomfortable at all.

At noon, they each took out steamed bread and dried cakes, and hurriedly ate a few bites of cold water as lunch.

There is only half a day left before the end of the exam, and by this time, the difference in the progress of the candidates has been very obvious.

The slowest progress has not even been built up the core model - it is not that the young people don't want to build it, their parts have already been completed, but when it comes to finally putting together the parts and building the shelves, the house will collapse as soon as it is built, and it will not stand up at all.

This is the mistake of not figuring out the structure of the house from the beginning and starting from scratch.

They were so anxious that they almost cried, they didn't have the heart to eat, they scratched their heads and ears, desperately wondering what went wrong and how to change it.

But not to mention the limited time, this is itself a matter beyond their ability, and it is basically doomed to be eliminated.

A number of houses of medium degree were built, but only that, the degree of completion was obviously very low, and some did not even do the wood carving on the window, so they drew a few lines with a carving knife casually, and the right to be represented.

However, this batch of candidates is relatively calm, and it is obvious that they plan to use the last half day to further improve.

There is another type of intermediate candidate.

They have completed the core building at a relatively high level, but they are still polishing and polishing the garden, and have not yet begun to make the surrounding garden. Chances are, they'll give up on this one.

In addition, there are quite a few candidates who have shown a significantly different level.
