This royal silk is Huzhou silk, the silk thread woven by the people of Wucheng County, Wucheng County, Dongwu County through silkworm breeding, the local specialty, is the silk used by the Dongwu Emperor at that time.

This old bamboo is the aged moso bamboo on Tianmu Mountain in Hangzhou, and the authentic and high-grade aged moso bamboo with bamboo green that grew on Tianmu Mountain in Yuhang County, Dongwu County, was not the general aged moso bamboo, but the best bamboo of three ages harvested in winter. Only because of the needs of the bamboo growth environment, the land on Tianmu Mountain is fertile, which is the most suitable for bamboo growth; plus the three-year-old bamboo, which grows more solid and hard than the bamboo of other ages, is the most suitable; and the winter harvesting, the bamboo is solid, and there are fewer moths, but it is the most suitable.

At that time, the Northern Wei Dynasty was strong, and the Western Shu and Eastern Wu were weak, out of political needs to avoid war, the Eastern Wu also agreed to this condition, and the tribute silk collected from the land of imperial silk and the tribute bamboo collected from the land of Chen Zhu were all loaded onto the large merchant ships driven by Cao Wei, and these high-end items were sold to Cao Cao.

After all the required materials were taken, Lu Chengcai carefully made a high-end fan.

He built Cao Cao first, and asked him to send skilled craftsmen, according to his own thoughts, day and night, to process the royal silk into the required fan silk, not ordinary ivory white silk, but the color that Cao Cao needed, dyed into golden silk, seeing that he agreed to do so, he took matters into his own hands, and made the fan bone.

He understands in his heart that if this high-end fan wants to be successfully produced, this fan bone is the most important place, and the fan bone is to be completed, it must be repeatedly polished and tried, this kind of technique is very different from the past, only by the casual polishing technique, lazy and lazy, it can be made, and that kind of casual polishing technique, can only produce some defective products to fan out, as for the high-end fan, it is impossible to do. And that product has to be fanned. It's generally stupid, stupid, and rude and unbearable, even if it's done, others will see it strange and may like it. Cao Cao was a generation of heroes, high, extremely wise and capable, talented and unusual, and he was wise. Naturally, I don't like it very much, if so, in order to seek simplicity, I take risks, and I want to take a shoddy fan to fool him, which makes people laugh and be generous, and it has ruined his reputation for many years, smashed his golden signboard, and even the reputation of his ancestors may be affected by this. In addition to this reputation and other vain things, the most important thing is that Cao Cao was angry, and he started to kill, killing himself alone is not enough, he has to make a ruthless move, and the crime is even the nine clans, then at that time, his head will fall to the ground, not to mention that his life is not guaranteed, that is, even his family relatives, Manchu people may have to worry about their lives. I know in my heart that Cao Cao is a human being, and he has always failed to achieve his goal, and he vows not to give up in order to achieve great things. Unscrupulous means, the so-called: "Rather teach me to bear the world, and stop teaching the world to bear me." "It is better to kill a hundred people and make an example of chickens and monkeys, but they will definitely not tolerate and condone and easily spare people. And he has a heavy army, has been fighting for many years, and it is very convenient to kill people, which can be said: "It is very easy to kill an ant." Knowing that this is very powerful, this huge amount of employment money is extremely difficult to take, so he worked hard, very focused, made this high-end fan, very hard, is dedicated, did not dare to be careless, at the same time, but also to play the advantages of self-production innovation, to seek a breakthrough in self-polishing techniques, as long as the skill at hand, the burden of a thousand pounds on one shoulder, to do this most important thing.

Because of this, he shot the Chen bamboo on his hand after many times of fine water grinding and polishing, rubbing and polishing, repeatedly, repeatedly, and then finally made Chen Zhu have a sense of spiritual light familiarity, aged bamboo is as transparent as jade, and the bamboo is clean and white after processing, very similar to white jade, so it is called jade bamboo.

After the two fine items of silk and jade bamboo were completely woven and manufactured, other processing and production became much easier. Rotten wood can be carved into Lu into timber in the finished high-end fan before the completion of the fan, is cautious, conscientious, sleepless immortal, exhaustive, in order to solve the problem of material selection and processing at the same time, what intentions, the so-called: "a penny of hard work, a penny, a penny, a penny." Seven days later, finally completed, done, according to Cao Cao's own requirements, made a fan surface nine inches five long, fan bone nine gears, also nine inches five long, the fan bone below the shaft for the copper nail of the golden silk fan page, white jade bamboo fan file and golden fan nail of a superior fan, can be folded and closed, easy to take advantage of, than all the same kind of fan made out of the year, the fineness of the fan is significantly higher than several grades, everywhere seems to be a step higher, it is really a fan in the upper boutique, can be said: " A fan within a fan. "The rarity of it can be imagined.

Cao Cao saw the finished product to fan, very satisfied, greatly praised, praised the rotten wood can be carved Lu into the material of exquisite craftsmanship, outstanding ability, worthy of the carpenter ancestor Lu Ban descendants, praise, greatly rewarded him, in addition to the original reward of heavy money, in addition to the original gift of a lot of houses and fields to him, to do a gift, praised him as "the prince of the nine grades of fine fan", and sealed him a false position, named "nine grades to fan the marquis", if it was not for the time can not be the king at will, I am afraid that he will be said to be "the king of the nine grades of the fan , named him a fictitious "ninth gear to fan the king".

Because of this, China's nine gears to fan appeared early, compared to the Japanese Japanese Kou country, but it is obviously about a thousand years earlier, the Chinese millennium power, the towering Chinese Oriental Pearl, is really the world's ancient civilization, one of the birthplaces of the world's civilization, has always been known as the "four ancient civilizations", other countries can not be easily compared.

In addition, Cao Cao took a fancy to the talent of rotten wood can be carved into Lu Chengcai, love is thirsty, whether he wants to do it in his heart or not, whether he agrees or not, even if he has to refuse to shirk, he only refuses, does not agree, is still like the hard reception of the divine doctor Hua Tuo, he is left in the Cao Mansion, specially served, helped the house to decorate the courtyard, carved beams and columns, carved gold carving, re-completely decorated, and there are many things to create furniture, design the latest popular styles, command other carpenters, carefully made, processed, so that Cao Mansion furniture has always been in front of the trend, only for use, therefore, Cao Mansion is magnificent, beautiful, than the palace even if it is not as good, exquisite and elegant, but it is really excessive, which makes the world sigh and envy.
