Chapter 124: The Beginning of School (Part II)
For the rest of the trainees, however, it was just a small episode. Because of the first class of school, they felt a lot of pressure. As his name suggests, Mr. Yan is old-fashioned and stern, and he teaches one of the most complicated crafts: tired silk.
The silk process, also known as "filigree", is to draw gold into filaments, weave them into braided strands or net-like tissues, and then set them with various precious stones. The tired silk process includes traditional techniques such as pinching, filling, saving, welding, weaving, and stacking, while the inlay process includes techniques such as frustration, monetization, hammering, stuffing, beating, collapse, squeezing, and inlay.
"Its work is ingenious, and its equipment is gorgeous. It is in response to the brilliance and luxury. Therefore, it is called the most exquisite in metal craft, the one that is ingenious, regular, and magnificent. ”
These basics need no need to be repeated for the best of these places. Even basic crafts don't need to be taught, but tasks are assigned directly.
Mr. Yan walked past the students with his hands in his hands, "The judgment of a qualified jewelry craftsman begins with tiredness. Today's homework is to make a piece of silk jewelry, and the theme is customized. However, the submission must be completed before today's unitary time, otherwise points will be deducted. ”
At the sound of the order, everyone hurriedly got busy. Only Li Jingshan stood outside the door, watching everyone's filigree filigree and flower accumulation. Mr. Yan walked through the various workbenches, pointing out or reprimanding the students, and after half a day, almost no one could escape his poisonous tongue.
However, this gentleman is indeed a master of the silk craft, and no flaw can escape his eyes, he can even only glance at it, and even pick out the irregular movements in the workmanship of the students.
After a morning, in addition to learning a lot of silk skills, the students also understood one thing - no matter how famous they used to be in the local jewelry industry, they can only be people with their tails between their legs here.
It was easy to be busy until noon, and finally when Mr. Yan announced the end of class, everyone collected the things at hand and hurried to the dining hall for dinner. There is a new class in the afternoon, and the homework at hand has not been completed, and if you can't hand it in at the time of unitary, you will have to deduct points!
When everyone was leaving, Li Jingshan was finally able to enter the workshop, hurriedly picked up the materials on the table, and began to make them.
Several people who were good friends with her surrounded her, and Wang Minzhi couldn't help but ask, "You were just behind me when you went to get the toolbox, why did you go for so long?" What's going on? ”
Li Jingshan's hands were busy, and she didn't even raise her head and answered, "The child has no mother, it's a long story." You go eat first, and if you have dry food, you can help me get a copy back. I'll pass my homework first. ”
Ye Qing patted her on the shoulder, "I'll help you bring a few steamed buns back." Don't worry, if you can't do it, I'll have it. ”
Meng Shu looked at Ye Qing's movements, and her eyes darkened.
Li Jingshan was about to thank her, but Zhuang Runqing shouted, "Don't! Unless Mr. indicates that the assignment is completed cooperatively, it must be submitted independently. If someone is found to be doing it on their behalf, both of them will be deducted points. ”
Li Jingshan raised her head and smiled, "Don't worry, I can do it myself." Go eat and don't miss the afternoon class. ”
Seeing that it was useless to stay here, everyone walked to the dining hall one after another. After a while, Ye Qing came back with two meat buns wrapped in oiled paper. Li Jingshan hurriedly put the two buns into her stomach and got busy again. It wasn't until the beginning of the afternoon class that she was halfway done.
Fortunately, the afternoon homework is to identify gemstones. The students had to put a small basket of various colored gems in front of them into a multi-treasure grid according to their category and color, and then write them on the label.
For Li Jingshan, with modern geological expertise as a foundation, and the craftsmanship of jewelry design in recent years, the classification was quickly completed. After she sorted all the gems into the multi-treasure grid, she saw a small note at the bottom of the basket: choose any three gems to use for the silk work.
Li Jingshan looked at the note and was stunned, and secretly said that this homework was really weird.
Tired silk is divided into tired silk and tired flower filament. Plain silk refers to the use of only gold wire through pinching, saving, plate, weaving and other processes to make shapes; The tired filigree also needs to be decorated with gemstone inlays, piercing, etc., and it is necessary to pull out a "bowl holder" in the shape to fix the gemstones.
In order to complete their homework as soon as possible, most of the students this morning chose to recreate the shape.
Sure enough, after a while, after some students finished sorting the gems, they also saw the note at the bottom of the basket and couldn't help wailing. However, there was no way to wail, so I had to roll up my sleeves and shake my hands.
After a busy afternoon, most of the students finally stumbled and turned in their homework. But there are also a few students who only hand in semi-finished products, waiting for the fate of being deducted points.
After the first day of study, everyone had a preliminary understanding of the demonic training that Zhuang Runqing had warned, but they didn't even have the strength to lament, and after washing up early, they collapsed directly on the bed.
Lai Ching-shan was lying on the bed, and she happened to see the moonlight outside the window spilling into the house through the treetops. She looked at the bright disc and said in her heart, Ruan Mingyu, do you know that the moon in the capital is indeed bigger and rounder than in Minzhou, although the ladder to the moon is difficult, I will always have a day to go to the top.
The moment she closed her eyes and fell asleep, she was still thinking, not knowing what he was doing at the moment.

-
At this time, Ruan Mingyu was in the account room of the Jingbao Pavilion, competing with the mountains of ledgers on the desk.
He left Beijing for three years, and took over the Jingbao Pavilion for the first time, and the first priority was to sort out the accounts of the Jingbao Pavilion in the past few years. He did not check the income and expenditure accounts of Jingbao Pavilion, but by looking at the details of the purchase and sale, he deduced the sales market and thought about the future direction of business.
Therefore, Rao is a glance and ten lines, full of wisdom, and at the end of the day, he is still dizzy by those numbers. He put down the account book in his hand, walked to the window and looked at the bright full moon outside, and suddenly remembered the full moon at this year's Lantern Festival, as well as the snacks he ate in the night market at that time. Suddenly, he felt hungry.
He turned around and asked Ruan Shu to prepare a supper for him, and thought that such a night market also existed in the capital, and when he had free time one day, he would definitely take the girl to go shopping.

When they woke up, the students of Tianqiao Hall began another day like a war.
"The homework handed in yesterday, you ask yourself, can it be called jewelry?"
Mr. Yan had a gloomy face, put all the students' homework on the long table, and commented one by one: "This bracelet that is only half-drawn, I thought it was a twisted twisted rope." Rework! ”
One of the cadets bowed his head, blushing to the base of his neck.
In fact, in all fairness, the design of the bracelet is exquisite, and the shape of the magpie twigs can be faintly seen on the finished bracelet. It's just that the time is too rushed, and the plum blossoms that can't be completed are like caterpillars crawling on the bracelet.
"It's not the right ratio, rework!"
"It's about handing over flowers, fooling anyone with a plain silk. Rework! ”
"Rough handwork, shoddy work, rework!"
Everyone was silent, waiting for the verdict of fate.
"Whose homework is this?" Mr. Yan pointed to a work.
"It's mine." Li Jingshan hurriedly responded.
"Are your fingers duck paws? Five fingers are legatures? Are you tired silk or tie twist? Mr. Yan asked three questions in a row, and said in disgust: "This is the ugliest silk I have ever seen." Rework! ”
Li Jingshan went to get her work back, which was also the most shocking comment she had ever heard. She inadvertently looked up and happened to see Fu Jinyu picking the corners of his mouth, smiling and gloating.
However, she didn't have time to compete with him now, and she knew that she would have to spend her time at noon today.
Of course, among these thirty assignments, there are also several assignments that have entered Mr. Yan's eyes, including Ye Qing and Meng Shu. Regarding Ye Qing's evaluation of homework, Mr. Yan only said one sentence, "You don't know what is tired, just use this homework as a standard." ”
The final word established Ye Qing's transcendent status in the silk craft class.
When it was time for the lunch break, Li Jingshan was dragged to the dining hall by her companions. Several people fetched food and gathered around a table to eat.
"The Fu Jinyu who caused you to be late yesterday, do you know what his background is?" Zhuang Runqing took a big bite of rice and said in a low voice, "He is from the main store in the capital." ”
"The people in the main store in the capital can be so arrogant, and he is not the only one." Wang Minzhi said unconvinced.
Originally, the training course of this Tianqiaotang was originally set up to train jewelry craftsmen in the capital. Later, we recruited excellent craftsmen from all over the world to train together. Therefore, it has always been the majority of students in the capital. For example, in this training class, there were 18 students in Beijing, while there were only 12 students from other places.
"And not just because of that." Zhuang Runqing is kind and kind, he is a smiling face to everyone, and he is most suitable for the work of inquiring about it, and he can't wait to share the news of the inquiry at this time.
"Their Fu family is a distant relative of the Chen family, the mother's family of the treasurer of the Jingbao Pavilion, and he was recommended by Chen Yuwei, the fourth lady of the Chen family. That's why I dare to walk sideways in Tianqiao Hall. Zhuang Runqing ate another piece of pork belly, looked at Li Jingshan and asked, "But if you want to deliberately make things difficult for you on the first day, where did you provoke him?" ”
As soon as she heard Chen Yuwei's name, Li Jingshan immediately knew where she had provoked him. But these entanglements are not easy to explain, Li Jingshan just smiled, "Am I like the kind of person who goes around making enemies with others?" ”
Ye Qing said, "Those kind of people, just avoid this point in the future." ”
Wang Minzhi also nodded and said, "That's it, the strong dragon doesn't suppress the head snake, it's better to make less trouble." ”
Li Jingshan knows that things will not be so simple. She bent the corners of her mouth shallowly, "If you can avoid it, you can avoid it." But if things come to me, I'm not afraid. ”
"That's true." Meng Shu, who had been silent, finally smiled faintly. "Only when you are not afraid of things can you not be chaotic in the face of danger."
The topic of small talk rose to such a height that everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to answer. Zhuang Runqing coughed lightly and gave a thumbs up, "Gao, Miss Meng is high." ”
Li Jingshan said in her heart, her roommate is really a character who can talk to death.
Everyone hurriedly finished their lunch and hurried to the workshop to complete their homework.
I thought that today was the same as yesterday, there was a busy and calm afternoon, but I didn't want to go to class in the afternoon, and the supervisor brought a new student into the class.
