503 Opponents
"Yes. Zhu Gantang said with a smile.
He glanced in the direction of the tent and saw that there was no movement for the time being, so he continued to explain to Xu Wen.
Theoretically speaking, he has no direct relationship with Jingying Mansion, and can even be regarded as a level.
But this time, the Jingying Mansion wanted to send someone to join the campaign, but he directly approached him, and was willing to use the Jingying Mansion team as a subordinate and let him lead the election.
The reason is very simple, two points: first, he likes his artistic skills and architectural experience, and second, he likes the total division method.
"Jingying Mansion, aren't they ......" Xu Wen said with some surprise as he remembered the team he had met at the Dragon God Temple.
In that contact, he could feel the heritage of Jingying Mansion, but at the same time, he could also feel the conservatism that came from it.
Of course, their craftsmanship is very strong, but they pay more attention to tradition and craftsmanship, and the full division should not be considered for them.
"Hehe, it seems that Jingying Mansion is also feeling some crises. Zhu Gantang said with a chuckle.
“...... Regardless, it's always good to be willing to change. Xu Wen paused, and suddenly laughed.
Speaking of which, this is also one of the benefits of the establishment of the Uchimonokaku.
It's easy to stop here.
With competition, the stagnant water can be stirred up, and progress can be constantly sought.
Did the person who established the Inner Pavilion also see this and made this decision?
"I've been working on full divisions lately, and I've had a little bit of a lesson. I didn't expect you to participate too, my fake is about to meet the main one. Zhu Gantang smiled at Xu and asked.
"Where. The so-called total division method is just a set of theories, and there are many details in specific practice, and if Master Zhu can perfect it, it would be the best. Xu Wen said seriously.
Zhu Gantang stared at him for a while, then laughed again: "Okay, then let's compete head-on." ”
Taking advantage of this time, Zhu Gantang introduced the information of the other three competitors to Xu Wen.
Needless to say, Li Quan, the big guy of the Inner Pavilion, met Xu Wen just now, this person has always been so unreasonable and serious. But his craftsmanship is indeed very clever, especially good at stone carving, and his craftsmanship is superb.
The name of the Ziyi Gongfu is Liu Wange, who looks a little young, but he is actually in his early fifties, the oldest among the few people who participated in the election.
As an inker, of course, his personal ability goes without saying. Bricklayer includes bricks and tiles, his brick carving and tile are a must, in addition, he also has a hand of "seamless" technology, in the Central Plains area of the famous, the legendary "Qin Tang" is his work.
Qin Tang Xu Wen had heard of this place when he was on the road, it is an extremely famous mansion in the central Hebei region, the ancestral home of the Qin family.
It is famous for brick carving and tiles, and it is known as ten miles of brocade. The so-called ten miles refers to the tortuous brick walls and eaves tiles in the Qin Hall, which are connected for a total of ten miles. These ten miles are all Seiko carving, different everywhere, and strange and ingenious everywhere.
Xu Wen was very yearning when he heard about it, and he wanted to see it with his own eyes, but unfortunately their distance was fixed, and Qin Tang was some distance away, so he didn't have this opportunity.
I didn't expect to see the legendary building, but I saw its builder first.
"Ten Mile Lianjin was actually not completed by Liu Wange alone. ”
Xu Wen glanced in the direction of Liu Wange twice, and then heard Zhu Gantang's voice again.
In addition to his own craftsmanship, Liu Wange also has a unique ability, which is his ability to lead apprentices.
Liu Wange is very good at training disciples, more than 20 years, one after another, a total of more than 70 apprentices, most of them have passed on his skills, carving skills are as good as him, almost can be fake.
These apprentices are also equivalent to one of his personal soldiers, pointing to where to fight, and many projects are actually completed by them together.
"Those behind him are his apprentices?" Xu Wen felt that the quality of those people behind Liu Wange seemed to be different, and then he immediately thought of it.
"Yes, part of it. Zhu Gantang nodded.
Part...... Indeed, there are only more than 30 of them, which is about the same number as these Nanyue craftsmen. However, the training time is too far apart.
After introducing Liu Wange, Zhu Gantang pointed to the last candidate, that is, the tall white fat man.
"Another person in Jingying Mansion, surnamed Wang, is named Wang Yiding. ”
"Wang Yiding?"
"Wang Yiding is also a strange person. He was only a fourth-level craftsman in the Gyeongyeong Prefecture before. Later, the Kyoeifu built the Ink Art Hall in Kyoto, and he overturned the design of the four imperial craftsmen and became the chief architect of the Ink Art Hall. As a result, he was promoted to the first-class master of the Beijing Camp Mansion, the squire of the Ministry of Works, and the head of the Beijing Camp Mansion. ”
"One of the four royal craftsmen is Lord Sun Boran?"
"Yes. ”
Sure enough, it was him!
Xu Wen had heard this name before, not once, but twice.
Once it was Sun Boran who said it, and it was also about this matter. A small craftsman happened to draw the whole picture of the Moyi Hall when the emperor inspected the site, overturning the designs of four top craftsmen and becoming famous in one fell swoop.
At that time, this story inspired countless apprentices who tried to do the apprenticeship, and even to Xu Wen, it was like a legend.
The other time was mentioned not long ago, after the West Desert team hit the road. It is said that Wang Yiding Wang was born with extraordinary talent, and his positioning of dimensional drawings is extremely accurate, and he can draw with his bare hands, which is accurate to the point.
One inch and ten points, one point is about 0.3 centimeters. Freehand drawing can be accurate to this extent, which is indeed very powerful, and the current Xu Wen is almost at this level.
He thought that if he had the opportunity to go to Kyoto, he would definitely pay a visit to this one, but he didn't expect to see him here?
As he imagined...... It's completely different.
"I heard he's only passed the age of a weak crown?" he couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, I'm also the youngest Squire of the Ministry of Works. Zhu Gantang said.
“...... I can't really see it. Xu asked.
Most craftsmen have been doing manual work for a long time, and their bodies are relatively strong, and when he heard Wang Yiding's story, the image of brain supplementation positioning was almost like this.
As a result, what appeared in front of him now was a fat man who was very rare in this era, white and tall, with eyes squinted into a line, and it was almost impossible to tell whether he was born with small eyes or squeezed by fat.
It is precisely because he is so fat that he can't see the spirit of a young man, and Xu Wen thought he was in his thirties......
Zhu Gantang, Li Quan, Liu Wange, Wang Yiding.
The four contenders for the election of the chief officer of the Western Desert Palace this time.
The four of them all have their own strengths, among which Zhu Gantang, who has the least qualifications, has also presided over garden architecture, and all of them are senior engineers who have proven their strength.
Xu Wen is the youngest and has the least qualifications, and he still brings a genuine ragtag army with a very short run-in time.
This "exam" is undoubtedly the strongest and most difficult opponent since he learned art.
Of course, it was also the most exciting.
But speaking of which, who will be the judges for such a campaign?
What will be the specific items and criteria for the campaign?
Xu Wen was thinking about it when he suddenly heard a voice.
Everyone heard it and turned their heads together.
On the other side, the gate of the tent was slowly opening, and behind the wooden gate, a team of soldiers came out in formation.
