Chu Feng's idea was simple and direct.

When compiling a seal, generally speaking, it is the left hand to hold the seal and the right hand to hold the knife, once the force is used, the left hand is likely to be unable to hold it, even a slight shaking, will also affect the final formation of the seal.

Therefore, Chu Feng couldn't help but think of all kinds of machine tools in later generations, including those chips that were automatically assembled, all of which fixed the body on the lathe and then processed it, so naturally there would be no such problem.

Although there were no modern things in this era, it was not difficult to clamp and fix the seal itself with two weighty things, so why do you have to hold it in your hand and engrave it?

Mr. Wen Duan listened to this question and couldn't help but wonder: "Chu Lang has a flexible brain, this is a good thing, see more and think more, it's not like everyone is the same, this is very good." But that method you said won't work. ”

Mr. Bunduan explains, "You may not think of it when you engrave it with clay seals, but when it comes to wood and jade materials, the feel becomes a very important thing. The strength of the knife should not only be perceived by the right hand holding the carving knife, but also by the left hand, that is, the hand holding the seal, otherwise the font will be scattered but not condensed, and the material will be destroyed, which is a waste. Moreover, such a fixed method is easy to be stuck when the knife is put down, and it is inevitable that it will lose its taste. ”

When Chu Feng heard this, he suddenly realized, and even called him "teachable".

Mr. Wen Duan did not spend a long time compiling every day, stopping for half an hour in the morning and resting in the afternoon.

Chu Feng looked at Mr. Wen Duan's left hand holding the seal, especially the thumb and index finger, which were very thick and powerful, and he couldn't help but be able to fix the seal itself tightly. If you look closely, there are indeed a few deep and shallow scars on the knuckles, which must have been accidentally scratched with a carving knife.

I can't help but sigh in my heart, no matter which expert is in the door, he has done hard work behind his back that ordinary people don't know! I couldn't help but encourage again.

Lao Zhang looked at the old man and the young man in the past few days, and began to study his head in one place again, and couldn't help but feel funny. What is especially funny is that Chu Langjun is still holding a tube of pen in his hand, and he does not relax from time to time, and here he is staring at the seal on his hand with a serious face, and the picture is really a bit funny.

On the afternoon of the third day, Liu Zhengqing came to the door again, and at a glance, he saw Chu Feng's sleeves bulging, and felt strange. When asked, Chu Feng lifted his sleeves to show him, saying that he was arranged by Mr. Cheng Yuan and was not allowed to relax within three days.

Liu Zhengqing was stunned when he saw this, then laughed, and patted Chu Feng on the shoulder sympathetically: "Mr. Cheng Yuan is notoriously arrogant, and he is known for treating local officials with the words 'strong and unreasonable'. Brother Chu, it seems that you are going to suffer. ”

"It's a small thing, and what should be corrected should always be corrected." Chu Feng smiled.

After talking and laughing, a few people naturally talked about the little lady of the Fan family, Liu Zhengqing sighed and said: "That Fan lady is afraid that she caught a cold on the day she came here, and now she is sick again, I am afraid that she will not be able to go out for a few days and will not be able to entertain guests." I'm also bored with this Xixi, and I have a few days to spare. ”

Chu Feng was slightly stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously blamed himself: "Mr. Cheng Yuan, let me go over every three days, I should have informed Brother Liu of this matter early." If I had told Brother Liu earlier, it would not have made that Fan Niangzi pounce. ”

Liu Zhengqing waved his hand and said: "That Fan Niangzi is weak and will get sick at every turn, so why should you blame yourself." Yes, it was the young owner Fan Saburo who asked me to present a prayer note for him, saying that he was going to visit him the day after tomorrow. He also said that he had been delayed because of his sister's illness in the past few days, which was really rude, and hoped that Mr. Lu would not blame him. ”

With that, he took out the famous thorn from his arms and handed it to Mr. Wen Duan with both hands.

Mr. Wen Duan accepted it and said with a smile: "Seeing a doctor is the most important thing, my old man is here, I can't run, I can come whenever I want." Tell him not to be in a hurry. ”

"Yes, Mr. Wen Duan is considerate of the juniors, it's really a lot." Liu Zhengqing said with a smile, "Yes, Zhengqing was clumsy before, and he didn't even guess that sir, you are from the Lu clan in Shanyin." After knowing it, I couldn't help but be a little timid, and I thought about my actions in front of Mr. Su Ri, it seems that there is nothing rude, right? If it's rude, I hope Mr. Haihan is good. ”

"You kid can even say such high-sounding words!" Mr. Wen Duan twisted his beard and smiled, "What is the Shanyin Lu clan and the Shanyang Lu clan, it's just a background, why bother." ”

Chu Feng listened in a fog on the side, and didn't understand what the Shanyin Lu clan and the background were referring to.

Seeing Chu Feng's dazed face, Liu Zhengqing couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and asked, "Doesn't Brother Chu know either?" ”

"Know what?" Chu Feng was puzzled.

Liu Zhengqing explained: "Mr. Wenduan's surname is Lu, and he is a member of the Lu family from Shanyin. The world says that the Lu family in Sanyin has a collection of 30,000 books, and the only one who can compare with the royal family in this world is the royal family. Could it be that Brother Chu didn't know? ”

"30,000 copies is just an exaggeration, where can there be so many." Mr. Wen Duan laughed, but the faint pride on his face could not be concealed.

Chu Feng couldn't help but be taken aback. He naturally knew the difficulties of the ancients in collecting books, and although he already had movable type printing at this time, printing books was not as simple as in later generations. What's more, there were not many books in this era, 30,000 copies, which is really an extraordinary number.

I can't complain that Mr. Wen Duan brought a few books for himself after returning from his hometown, but they were all Lu's collection.

Moreover, the San'in Lu clan ...... Chu Feng always felt that he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

Seeing the look of surprise on Chu Feng's face, Liu Zhengqing couldn't help but be stunned, and then said with a smile: "It turns out that Brother Chu really doesn't know. Mr. Wen Duan, originally Zhengqing wanted to complain that you were hiding it from me, but now it seems that even this guy who lives under your roof doesn't know your identity, and I am relieved, haha! ”

Chu Feng blinked, in fact, the family family or something, he has a concept, but what kind of influence he really has, Chu Feng is not clear. After all, there is no real big family in later generations, and Chu Feng's understanding of the family is limited to "Wang Xie Tang Qianyan in the old days, flying into the homes of ordinary people", and limited to "the humble room is empty, and the wat is full of beds back then", but he doesn't know what kind of prosperity it really is.

Therefore, even if he knew, Chu Feng was not as shocked as Liu Zhengqing, and he would not have too much awe, just pure surprise.

Mr. Wen Duan looked at Chu Feng's reaction, his face was light, but he was very satisfied in his heart. His identity, once revealed in the past, there were many stammers and flatterers. But the two guys in front of him, Liu Zhengqing is still a little awe-inspiring, but he is still sparse in his actions, and there is no condescension or flattery, which is already much better than ordinary people. And Chu Feng, the guy who was accepted as an apprentice before he knew his identity, actually behaved even more indifferently, which made Mr. Wen Duan feel very comfortable.

Mr. Wen Duan is not a vulgar person, and he is even more disgusted with those vulgar things. It is precisely because of this that he will resign from the official position, and go to Hangzhou and other places to open a small calligraphy and painting shop with a remote path, not for anything else, just to find some tranquility and spend his old age in peace. As the so-called big hidden in the city, the old gentleman also wants to experience it.

Accepting an apprentice was purely unexpected, originally he was a little hesitant, but the more he got in touch with Chu Feng, he couldn't help but become more and more happy, feeling that this kid had excellent character and talent, and it would be a pity if he buried it.

As for the influence of his own family on this child...... If this child is really worth cultivating, using his family's ability to give him a ride is actually a great joy in life. The so-called wonderful reward of the Jin people must be like this.

And this Liu Zhengqing, although not as good as Chu Feng, is also a talent, and it is also very interesting to interact occasionally.

It's just that now that I have admitted my identity, the future days will inevitably be less quiet...... Ay! If you are willing to give up, you will have to give up, and if you have it, you will have to give up, that's it!

Now that his identity has been revealed, Mr. Wen Duan no longer hides his clumsiness, and asks Liu Zhengqing about the township exam he is preparing for recently, and points out a few words about the things that should be paid attention to in the examination room, etc., Liu Zhengqing is very happy and thanked him again and again.

"Has the gentleman also participated in the imperial examination?" Chu Feng listened to it on the side, and felt very interesting, so he found a gap and asked.

"The old man is a Jinshi of Chongning Renwu Branch, although it has been a long time, but these experiences are in vain!" Mr. Wen Duan smiled and said.

Liu Zhengqing also smiled when he heard this: "Mr. Wen Duan is really too humble, these lessons are hard to find, Zhengqing is really blessed to be able to hear them!" ”

It turned out that the old gentleman turned out to be such a capable person, this time, even Chu Feng couldn't help but sigh a few times in admiration. However, I don't want to take the path of the imperial examination, otherwise it would be a good thing to be able to ask for advice.

"You kid, don't think that a casual thank you is enough." Mr. Wen Duan looked at Liu Zhengqing and pointed to something, "What did the old man tell you before?" It's been a long time, and why haven't you answered a word! ”

After that, Mr. Wen Duan glanced at Chu Feng with a vague look.

"Old man, this matter ......" Liu Zhengqing's face was embarrassed, he glanced at Chu Feng beside him, and stopped talking, "Hey! It's a hard time! ”

Chu Feng was confused when he heard this, looked at the two of them, and blinked.

"Well, that ......" Liu Zhengqing cleared his throat, it was simply three hundred taels of silver here, "Mr. Wenduan's experience in the imperial examination is really admired by Xiaosheng, it is getting late today, Zhengqing will come to ask Mr. for advice tomorrow, and I hope that Mr. can give advice!" ”

Tomorrow is the day when Chu Feng is going to Tianluo Village to resume his master's life, what are these two going to do? Do you have to carry yourself?

Chu Feng looked at Mr. Wen Duan, and then at Liu Zhengqing, but he couldn't figure it out.
