Since Sha Hong asked Li Yuanba to call him by name, then Li Yuanba would not be polite. Isn't there a saying that is good, cheap. People are hypocritical, Li Yuanba doesn't want to be cheap. Person.

Therefore, he gently stroked the crystal leaf in his hand and asked, "Sha Hong, how much water jade is there now that will be the prison?" ”

"Your Royal Highness, because there is another half moon is the birthday of His Royal Highness the Great Prince, so most of the water jade has been ordered by His Majesty and carved into various ornaments and things to play with, so there is not much left in the prison!" Sha Hong carefully answered Li Yuanba's question.

"Woo, it's not much, that's not going to be easy!" Li Yuanba frowned, and after a long while, he said, "Forget it, do you have a pen and paper?" This king will draw you a few sketches, and you can try to make them with the rest of the water jade first, and see how many utensils you can make for this king. ”

"Ah, yes, yes! Your Highness, please. Sha Hong nodded, led Li Yuanba to a long case, and personally laid paper and grinded for it.

Since childhood, he has been holding the grave digging ...... No, Li Yuanba, who has been dreaming of saving Chinese antiquities since he was a child, has loved calligraphy since he was a child, has studied some characters in the past dynasties, and has practiced a rather beautiful willow script, so there is no pressure on him to write traditional Chinese characters with brushes.

Looking at the brush and paper on the case, Li Yuanba couldn't help but shake his head.

The pen is a good rat whisker pen, which is designed for writing small print, and is used to outline graphics, which is the most suitable.

It's just that this rice paper is a bit of a trick, not only the color is yellow, but also a little hard under the pen, the ink will be wet and a large piece, it is estimated that it is used as hand paper, it will be pierced.

"Alas, my poor Datang life, even a piece of rice paper is so bad! It seems that for the sake of my paperwork, I also have to study the art of papermaking. ”

Li Yuanba had a stroke. Sao complained incomparably, but the movements in his hands did not stop, carrying a brush to sketch on the broken rice paper.

Sha Hong stood beside Li Yuanba and grinded, watching His Royal Highness the Martial King paint there.

At first, he didn't care, but when he saw Li Yuanba adding annotations next to those strange utensils, his eyes suddenly widened, and after a while, he sincerely admired: "Your Highness, your writing is so beautiful, not only is your body strict, your bones are strong, but also beautiful and healthy, it can be said that you are a family of your own!" ”

Li Yuanba is very fond of his hand of willow script, hearing Sha Hong's praise, although he was a little proud in his heart, but his face asked quietly: "Oh, Sha Hong, you also have a study of calligraphy?" ”

"Hehe, Xia Guan has the honor to worship under Lord Chu Suiliang Chu, so he is also involved in calligraphy!" Sha Hong subconsciously straightened his chest and honestly and unceremoniously moved Chu Suiliang out, as if he was afraid that others would not know who his teacher was!

"Chu Suiliang?"

Li Yuanba was stunned for a moment, and the historical information about Chu Suiliang quickly flashed in his mind:

Chu Suiliang, the word Dengshan, the Tang Dynasty politician, calligrapher, once served in the Tang Dynasty as a counselor, in the Chinese calligraphy order and other positions. Chu Sui Lianggong calligraphy, the first to learn Yu Shinan, and later take the law Wang Xizhi and Ouyang Xun, Yu Shinan, Xue Ji and called the "early Tang Dynasty four masters".

"Hehe, you worshipped a good gentleman!" Li Yuanba said with a smile.

Thinking about it, looking at Sha Hong's age, he is only twenty-seven or eighteen years old, if there is no one above him, how can he be able to achieve the position of a fourth-grade young eunuch at this age.

After two more strokes, Li Yuanba put down the brush in his hand, picked up the rice paper and blew it gently, and said: "Sha Hong, see if you can understand this picture, if you don't understand it, ask this king." ”

Sha Hong didn't dare to slack off, took the rice paper from Li Yuanba's hand, and the first thing that caught his eye was a cylindrical thing on it that looked like a pen barrel.

He pointed to the things on the rice paper a little strangely, and said, "Your Highness, there are a lot of these cylinders in the prison, why do you want to order them?" ”

"Pencil holder, when did I draw the pen holder?"

Li Yuanba was stunned when he heard this, and glanced at the rice paper with some confusion.

As a result, when he saw the beaker he had drawn, he almost suffocated to death!

"Nima, is this a pen holder? Your pen holder is so thick? Li Yuanba's nose is crooked, is this questioning his painting level?

Thinking that he has been immersed in the traditional Chinese calligraphy and painting industry for more than ten years, he painted a beaker and was used as a pen holder, which is really a failure!

Rolling his eyes, Li Yuan said domineeringly: "Who told you that this is a pen holder?" This thing is called a beaker, don't you see that there is a note next to it? By the way, you keep in mind that everything painted by Ben Wang on this piece of paper must be carved with transparent water jade, and it must not be made of colored water jade. ”

Seeing that Li Yuanba said so solemnly, Sha Hong naturally didn't dare to be sloppy, carefully put away the rice paper, and arched his hand and said: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, your lower officials remember!" ”

Li Yuanba nodded and continued: "Sha Hong, I don't know if the craftsmen in this prison can have craftsmen who can make zuò air bags?" ”

"Airbags?"

Sha Hong was stunned again, I am afraid that the number of times he was stunned today is more than the number of times he has been stunned all year round.

He frowned, pondered for a long time, and said, "Your Highness, are you talking about a container that can store gas?" ”

"Yes, yes! It is a container used to store gas. Originally, seeing the tangled expression on Sha Hong's face, Li Yuanba had already given up, but he didn't expect that the Tang Dynasty really had a container that could store gas.

But often the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, so I saw Sha Hong shake his head and said, "My lord, there will be no craftsman in the prison who can make zuò airbags!" ”

"Damn, fool me!"

The expression on Li Yuanba's face froze, and he glared at Sha Hong with some annoyance.

Sha Hong saw the annoyance on Li Yuanba's face, and hurriedly added: "However, when Xia Guan was in Jincheng County, Lianzhou last year, he happened to see strange boats floating on the Yellow River, transporting goods and business trips. Curious, Xia Guan stepped forward to investigate, and found that it was a raft made of willow sticks and seven or eight cylindrical skins. ”

"Rafts?" Li Yuanba frowned and thought about it, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he almost blurted out: "Cowhide raft!" ”

The raft in China has a long history, and the "Water Jing Note: Ye Yu Water Chapter" contains: In the twenty-third year of Jianwu of the Han Dynasty (47 AD), the king sent troops to the south by boat (that is, the raft). "Old Tang Dynasty Book: The Biography of the Eastern Woman": Using cowhide as a boat to ferry.

As a top student of the highest university in China and a doctor of history, Li Yuanba also has a little knowledge of the history of the raft, after all, it involves part of the history, and this guy is still very concerned.

Sha Hong looked at Li Yuanba with some surprise and said, "Could it be that His Highness has also seen this thing?" ”

"Your memory is good, I still remember the events of the past year." Li Yuanba did not answer Yang Hong's question, but praised Sha Hong fiercely.
