"E-Niang said that she had a terrible headache, and you said that I should go to Yonghe Palace to see E-niang."

Yin Zhen shook his head: "No, I went to see it once, Huang Ama said, Eniang has a headache and needs to recuperate, and it will not be a New Year's festival in the future, so there is no need to go to Yonghe Palace." ”

Tong Cheng'er nodded, it's okay not to go, the province really makes people angry.

Yin Zhen knew that his mother had a real headache this time, but his heart was no longer turbulent at this time.

Don't worry about the affairs of Yonghe Palace, the matter of the pencil has also progressed.

Although Tong Cheng'er didn't know how to make pencils, she got the raw materials out and drew a pencil outline drawing.

Encouraged by a rich reward, it took the five craftsmen only ten days to make the first version of the pencil.

Tong Cheng'er was reading the script, and at this time Rulan came in.

"Fu Jin, the pencil you asked the craftsman in the house to make has been made, do you want to take a look now?"

Naturally, it's to be seen.

She put down the notebook in her hand: "Take it and I'll take a look." ”

Rulan presented the pencil to the table.

Tong Cheng'er: "Find a sharp knife." ”

She's going to sharpen a pencil.

The knives were brought over, and her knives were drawn on pencils, and they hadn't been sharpened for years, so she had to see how to cut them.

Rulan watched her with a knife on the side, and couldn't help but say: "Fujin, what are you going to do to let the slave come, this knife is very sharp, if it scratches you, the master is afraid that he will be distressed." ”

Tong Cheng'er shook her head: "No, no, I'll do it myself." ”

Sharpening a pencil is not a technical job, she can.

Then she gestured for a while and began to do it, and it turned out that sharpening a pencil was a real technical job.

A pencil, which she didn't look at very well, but the lead of the pencil was cut out.

It works.

She used a pencil to write two words on the paper, and the color of the words written was like black ink, no problem, no problem, but the color was too heavy, and it was easy to stain her hands by writing a few more lines.

It would be nice if the color could be lighter.

It's just a color, but it can be used for painting.

When the experiment was over, she realized that her hands were black.

After cleaning up her hands, she said to Rulan: "You go to the account room to get the silver, this pencil is good, each person will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver, in addition, tomorrow the five of them will be brought over, I have other orders." ”

Rulan: "Yes, Fujin." ”

Tong Cheng'er was very excited, and Yinzhen could feel her excitement when she came back from a business trip at night.

So he asked, "Did you encounter anything happy today?" I see how happy you look. ”

Tong Cheng'er nodded: "I did encounter something happy." ”

Then she took Yinzhen to the study, where there was a row of sharpened pencils on the desk.

Tong Cheng'er said in a cheerful tone: "What do you think this is?" ”

Yin Zhen looked over, and then said with some surprise: "The pencil was made?" ”

Tong Cheng'er nodded: "How can you try it?" ”

Yinzhen holds a pencil and writes on paper.

Because he is used to writing calligraphy, the words he just wrote with a pencil are a bit ugly, but this Tong Cheng'er didn't expect it.

But Yinzhen didn't stop, and wrote for a while, and the more she wrote, the better it looked, and it was better than what Tong Cheng'er wrote.

Tong Cheng'er, who watched it, couldn't help but sigh, sure enough, she was a god, and the kung fu of this meeting directly compared her to one or two decades.

Looking at the regular script, I originally wanted to "laugh" at him, but now it seems that it is still over.

Tong Cheng'er: "How do you feel?" ”

Yin Zhen nodded: "Very good." ”

Only then did Yin Zhen remember and ask her, "How much does this pencil cost?" ”

"If you don't count labor, the cost of twenty pencils is only a penny, and on the basis of this cost, you can also make improvements, and the cost can be reduced again."

Today's pencils are made of solid wood, and the wood is consumed directly after use, Tong Cheng'er next wants the craftsmen to try to make a pen similar to a mechanical pencil, and then directly use the refill, so that the cost will be lower.

She believes that people's wisdom is infinite, and as long as they give enough benefits, they will definitely rack their brains to make enough amazing things.

Looking at Yinzhen and then at the pencil on the table, Tong Cheng'er suddenly had some itchy hands.

"I'll paint you a picture!"

Yin Zhen was puzzled, he remembered that she didn't seem to be able to draw, right?

But since she said it, Yinzhen nodded: "Okay!" ”

Tong Cheng'er said to Yinzhen: "You put on a pose that you think looks good." ”

Good looking pose?

How is this going to be placed.

In the end, under Tong Cheng'er's instructions, Yinzhen sat on a chair with a book in his hand.

Tong Cheng'er took the pencil and began to move on the paper.

At the beginning, he was born by hand, and two pieces of paper were wasted, and Tong Cheng'er was considered to have entered the state.

Tong Cheng'er scribbled and painted, and it took nearly an hour for a passable sketch to appear.

"Okay, can you come over and see if it looks like it?"

Yinzhen put down the book, walked to the table, and began to look at the painting.

With just one glance, Yinzhen couldn't help but exclaim, like, too similar.

Looking at Yinzhen's shocked appearance, Tong Cheng'er said with a smile: "How is it?" ”

"It's very similar, I didn't expect you to have such painting skills."

To Yinzhen's surprise, after all, Yinzhen knew that his little Fujin was a lazy girl, and the only word that could be taken out was forced by her mother to practice.

"If you like it, I'll draw it for you later."

Yin Zhen nodded: "I like it very much." ”

However, when he saw this painting, Yinzhen couldn't help but think about it a little more, such a life-like portrait is too useful.

Yin Zhen asked, "Is this kind of painting technique difficult to learn?" ”

Tong Cheng'er shook her head: "It's not difficult to learn." ”

She is an example of self-taught, just put a little more thought into it, and of course, she has also seen a lot of teaching videos.

Yin Zhen said directly: "If this kind of painting technique can be used to arrest the most wanted criminals, it will definitely be able to make the most vicious people arrest as soon as possible, if it is not difficult to learn, it can be learned by the painters in the yamen." ”

The images of wanted criminals drawn by those artists are only somewhat alike, and the wanted person may not be able to recognize them when they stand in front of them.

Tong Cheng'er didn't think about it in this regard, but after he said this, coupled with the fact that he had read a lot of detective scripts, this sketch portrait could indeed be popularized in the yamen, and it would indeed be beneficial to handle the case.

"Go back and find a few young people who have a little bit of a foundation in painting, and I'll teach them."

"Okay, I'm sorry for you."

Tong Cheng'er shook her head: "It's not a trouble, besides, what's polite to me, if you can really catch a wanted criminal, it will be considered a merit." ”

Yin Zhen smiled and nodded.

There was a lot of delay in the study, and both of them were hungry.

Yin Zhen carefully put away the portrait that Tong Cheng'er painted for him, and then the two went to eat together.

In the KitKat courtyard, the five craftsmen each received a reward of 100 taels of silver, and looking at the white silver, the five were a little incredulous.

The youngest of them: "Is it so easy to earn a hundred taels of silver?" ”

In fact, being able to work as a craftsman in the mansion of the prince and elder brother is not poor in itself, but this is a hundred taels, and they feel that they don't seem to have done anything.

Ten days of hard work can get a hundred taels of silver.

Some are untrue.

Dong Cheng was the most stable, and he said: "Since Fujin gave it, it means that the things we make are worth this price, Fujin is generous, we have to work hard in the future, otherwise there will be more people to replace us." ”

The other four nodded in agreement.

This is right, what to do Fu Jin's instructions are clear and clear, at most use their brains, and if they do a good job, they can get so much silver, and they will naturally do a good job.

Otherwise, there are more than 20 craftsmen left in the mansion, and any one of them can replace them.
