Whether Tan Weixin is ready to vigorously launch her anti-piracy career, or use her far-reaching influence and power to torture the other party with many small actions, or even promote intellectual property legislation in this era of less developed communication, she will definitely enjoy the process with a cat-and-mouse mentality.

Tan Weixin also told Ye Tao about several heavyweight works that Baowentang Bookstore is typaging recently: "Mathematics", "Economics", "Group Studies", "Design and Technology", and "Architecture and Structure". The first two books are adapted by Tan Weixin from his knowledge according to the characteristics of this era, and some of the content has been disseminated in a small area. "Group Studies" is a combination of a series of contents such as "group psychology" and "management psychology" that Ye Tao once lectured in the commentary hall of Yizhan Building, and later supplemented the content in several lectures, plus some case analysis. "Design and Technology" and "Architecture and Structure" are two textbooks that idlers can't understand, the content of design, the brothers and sisters of Ye's workshop, as well as the old technicians who have served in Ye's for many years, already have a rough concept, and have been taught by Ye Tao in combination with practice, but for others, it is really difficult to describe what the "design" with a lot of abstract content is. The last book "Architecture and Structure" is a collection of cases based on architectural design drawings and text annotations to illustrate a series of relationships between architecture and structure, and the main cases contained in this book are those buildings that Ye Tao participated in the construction of in the past few years: Zhan Yuan, Xunfeng Pavilion, Qingquan Village, Danyang New City Renovation Project and Seven Seas Tower. It is deeper and more classic.

These tomes are not only the crystallization of Ye Tao and Tan Weixin's painstaking efforts over the years, but also become the dazzling works of Yip's Workshop's art and printing workshops, pigment and printing and dyeing workshops, fine engraving and printing workshops and other institutions. The thickened white and delicate paper feels excellent to the touch, and this is the first watermarked paper of this era.

Watermarked paper also undergoes a shading process before it can become the material on several modified printing presses. The fine engraving printing workshop has prepared a total of cloud water patterns. Thunder pattern, auspicious beast pattern, flower and grass pattern. Five patterns of bird pattern. The engraving craftsmen are all old craftsmen who have followed Ye Tao in the workshop since Yicheng, and they have all inherited Ye Tao's bad habit of leaving signatures in unobtrusive ways in their works.

After shading printing, the printing of the text content is also carried out by metal movable type and special ink. Diagram used in the book. Drawings, pictures and other contents are all in the form of metal etchings. In the era that Ye Tao and Tan Weixin came from. Until the 21st century, this form of metal etching was used again and again, even if the typesetting was made only by computer. And in this era, the presentation of such technical means and craftsmanship is a pioneering feat in itself.

Even the binding of books is not the thread binding that is commonly popular in this era, but the hot glue binding. Each book is protected by a sheepskin on the outside of cardboard, and then a thicker moire paper jacket on the outside. The title of the book is printed in gilt on the cover of the sheepskin and on the moire paper cover. Author & Publisher...... Aside from the absence of copyright pages, and the absence of such things as Chinese book reprint numbers that didn't become common until the mid-nineties, these books have a completely modern feel...... Except, these things are all "Chinese traditional Chinese version".

The cost of printing a book in this way is extremely intimidating. According to Ye Tao, it is basically to print the book on the banknote. In terms of the technical difficulty of paper, printing and ink, this statement is true, not an exaggeration. Each of the five sets of books had a print run of only 300 sets. Among these 300 sets, in addition to the authors, those who participated in the compilation, the sample books to be left by the publisher, and the books that should be archived in the palace, the inner house, the Guozijian, Taixue, etc., at most more than 100 sets were set aside, and in addition to the 20 sets of books set aside as a reward for the best Taixue and Guozijian students in the next four years, the rest were given to the ministers of the current dynasty, the retired ministers, and the wealthy families who had great influence on the national economy and people's livelihood. On the one hand, it can be regarded as an acknowledgment of the auxiliary decision-making role of these five sets of books for national policy. When this set of books is officially issued, a very deterrent decree will be issued: those who circulate these five sets of books or their contents to other countries will be punished for treason.

And these five sets of books also let Tan Xiaopei and others, and many ministers in Dongping see the importance of theory. These things are not the so-called "Pingliao Strategy", "Advice on the Maritime Taxation and Commercial Law", "Twenty Years of Pingxi Ling Consultation" and other highly targeted and operational strategies, but from countless historical realities, from concrete events and data, extract the concept of imagery, and organize the work, not to analyze specific events, to target specific enemies, but a kind of universal summary. And for a country with a strong comprehension like Dongping, the value of these things will not be slightly lower than those specific ones.

The advanced economic ideas circulating in "Economics", the ideas on state regulation and control, the development of economic entities, and so on, as well as the discussion of the monetary economic system, can make people who are extremely sensitive to economic affairs see a new picture of development. However, no matter how frustrated everyone was, everyone understood one thing: when they tried to block the passage of Tan Weixin's long-term plan for monetary reform, they had closed the door for Tan Weixin to preside over Dongping's economic development.

Whether it is Tan Weixin's intelligence, talent, arrogance and stubbornness, it definitely proves Tan Xiaopei's evaluation of her at the beginning: if she is a man, if she has a good body, then he will be a generation of heroes who can make the world tremble.

Tan Weixin, who has no interest in being the hero, seems to be very satisfied with her life in Ninghe Town. Since he had just started taking Shengsheng San, Feng Henian asked Tan Weixin to stay in Ninghe Town for a month and wait until the second dose of Shengsheng San before leaving. And he will also stay by Tan Weixin's side, and research a series of drugs for assisting Qi and Dispersion according to Tan Weixin's physique, so as to speed up the process of Tan Weixin's physical recovery, and even put forward some other health suggestions.

In this way, Ye Tao and Tan Weixin were both stranded in the small place of Ninghe Town. Han Dong was certainly pleased that he had the opportunity to show his face in front of the Governor and His Royal Highness the Princess, and the total of 2,000 officers and soldiers now stationed in and around Ninghe Town also indirectly promoted the economic development of Ninghe Town.

Tan Weiying was a little depressed, she couldn't keep dangling in front of Ye Tao, she was a princess after all, and she was nominally here to accompany her sister. So, she had no choice but to drag Dai Qiuyan around Ninghe Town. Although Dai Qiuyan is attached to Ye Tao, she also cherishes a friend like Tan Weiying. also took her painting tools and played with Tan Weiying, saving the beautiful scenery on the picture scroll one by one.

If you want to talk about Dai Qiuyan's painting tools, in addition to luxury. There are no other adjectives. All kinds of brushes, paints and auxiliary supplies are enough to load a carriage, and the mainstream of painting in Dongping and even the whole continent is still ink, one of the reasons may be that pigments are difficult to find, and it is impossible to form a production scale at all. Dai Qiuyan has several sets of things such as gouache, watercolor, oil painting, water-based Chinese painting pigments, lacquer decorative pigments and so on. Most of these pigments are about as expensive as the same weight of gold.

Painting is definitely a physical job, very enduring, and more and more love to paint Dai Qiuyan still has the opportunity to learn, Kassandra, a girl from the Aegean region, although she did not receive systematic training in painting as a child. But the art style of her hometown still left a deep impression on her mind. The recent group of Persian craftsmen who had been studying construction techniques under Yip's Workshop and Dai's Construction Company brought with them a completely different style of art. As the only daughter of the owner of Dai's Construction Bank. As the young grandmother of Ye's workshop, as the fiancée of Ye Tao, who pays attention to technology in art but is indeed skilled, these guys who have mastered different art styles dare not and will not offend her, and will do their best to help her curiosity and studiousness. At a young age, Dai Qiuyan already has a posture that integrates different art styles and uses them flexibly. Lian Ye Tao, every time I see the portrait of the old girl painted on rice paper, I have seen the landscape and the auction of the works of Chinese painters...... The style that integrates Western perspective and techniques, and skillfully uses traditional Chinese media.

In Danyang, many noble ladies and celebrities are proud to get Dai Qiuyan to agree to paint a portrait of themselves. But in the heart of Dai Qiuyan, who only pays attention to "Ye Tao, painting, and arranging in no particular order", those are all troublesome things. Only this enthusiastic good friend Tan Weiying always pulls her to paint again and again. And those who have been seen by the lord Tan Xiaopei, the queen Zhuo Xiu, the general Zhuo Mang, plus the two princes and two princesses are almost portraits of various styles of the royal family, but Dai Qiuyan's fame has become more and more famous.

Dai Qiuyan's ideas are simple and naïve, but she often inadvertently, and sometimes, just when choosing the form of portraiture, makes a judgment on the other. The portrait of Tan Xiaopei, which she painted in thick ink, fully shows the extremely unified temperament of the successive lords of Dongping: more like a general than like a king. The portrait of Queen Zhuo Xiu is presented on the canvas with oil paint and extremely delicate brushstrokes, fully expressing Zhuo Xiu's graceful and elegant, thoughtful and rich characteristics.

However, only a few people, such as Tan Weiying, knew that Dai Qiuyan's favorite and best form of painting was drawing. Just as she is sitting leisurely under the shade of a tree on the hill, overlooking the canal at the foot of the mountain, trying to use her pen to contain the scene of this labor.

What Tan Weiying admires the most is Dai Qiuyan's means of organizing and enriching the lines that look messy, Ye Tao has not yet made the thing called a pencil in our legend, so Dai Qiuyan's sketches are still those fragile graphite strips. Dai Qiuyan's right thumb and forefinger gently wrapped the "simple pencil" around the paper roll that made the graphite strip not break so easily, and then let the tip of the pen run across the rough paper, and after the simple line arrangement, the winding river appeared, the hills and boulders appeared, and the workshop on the side of the river appeared. With Dai Qiuyan's pen, the simple figures jumped on the paper, but they all had distinctive characteristics, some were people who carried the earth and stones, some were wrestlers who stretched their muscles and bones to continue digging the earth, some were foremen who shouted for everyone to work harder, some were officials standing a little higher and watching the progress of the project in front of the engineering drawings, some were women and old people boiling water and cooking on the edge of the river construction site, and even children were curiously watching the hot scene.

No less than hundreds of characters in the big scene appeared vividly in the picture scroll one by one. What is even more amazing is that Dai Qiuyan seems to casually paint a few strokes in the open space of the picture, and then uses her fingers to wipe out the traces left by the graphite rod, and all of a sudden, it seems that the dust flying everywhere in the air with labor can be seen in the picture, which is simply amazing.

"Qiuqiu, why don't you use a sketch to help me draw a portrait? You draw so well. Tan Weiying sighed, sometimes she also wants to be able to paint such a painting, but she has seen in Dai Qiuyan's studio that Dai Qiuyan has accumulated many years of practice from the beginning of her study to the present, and the weight of those drawing papers alone can wipe away all her courage to learn to paint.

Dai Qiuyan scratched her face and unconsciously got a trace of graphite on her face. "I'm just like you, my face is a little flat, and I don't look good when I draw it. Besides, I've already drawn a lot of them for you. It's not bad for this one, and the sketch portrait is not easy to preserve. ”

Tan Weiying said helplessly: "Yes, but Sophie's sketch portrait is really beautiful." ”

Dai Qiuyan actually said with some pride: "Of course, Sophie is so beautiful, that's why Brother Ye likes her so much." ”

Tan Weiying snorted and said, "You girl is not jealous. ”

Dai Qiuyan's face flushed and said, "Everyone likes Brother Ye, why care so much." But when did your sister get married? ”

Tan Weiying was stunned for a moment, and said, "Bah, what do you mean to get married, you must be behind my sister...... I have to wait until this fall, after Wei Ming's brother gets married. There are a lot of things to arrange in the inner house, and the honor guard can't be short, it must be next year. In fact, we are already very unruly in talking about the family. Especially for several generations, if in the past, boys got married as soon as possible, and quickly gave birth to children to keep offspring, girls, they had to marry those who were a little higher in the military and were not so easy to die. Therefore, many of the women in our families are married to older men who are much older than themselves. However, my sister is the same age as my brother-in-law. If my sister hadn't had a difficult birth, her birthday would have been the same day. ”

Dai Qiuyan tilted her head, the pen in her hand did not stop, but she asked a very lethal question: "What about you?" Have you taken a fancy to anyone's young man? ”
