Chapter 60 Beauty (Part 1)
But Wang Hua did not expect Li Longji and his party to hide their identity for him when they go back... He came up with a good idea and called Manager He and asked directly: "Manager He, do you know the project of this lacquerware now?"
Manager He nodded. Such a huge project of lacquerware has never been heard in history.
"But what if something goes wrong?"
What to do? If there is a mistake at the beginning, the loss will be smaller, but the project has progressed to the present. Once the mistake is made, it will be calculated in one million as it is a whole lacquer sculpture. Even if it is destroyed, the loss will be calculated in a million. Even if his master has money, it will also hurt. This is still the case. If it comes, it will start to officially embed gold, and once it makes mistakes, the loss will be even more serious.
He stuttered: "Wang Xiaolang, don't scare me."
"It's not a question of whether it's scary or not. There are more than 7,000 figures of this lacquerware, not counting other decorative hard carvings. Besides, there are more than 100,000 inscriptions and more than 100 paintings. The carvings and soft carvings require knife carvings, which can be said to be nearly ten million times, and may not stop. Mistakes are also normal. Maybe small mistakes can be made up for by polishing, or repairing carvings. But once a major mistake occurs, the final result of this lacquerware will only fail."
Such a huge project is inevitable even if it makes mistakes. It is strange that there is no mistake.
"What should I do?"
"There is no other way, so I have to be careful. But now my residence has been noticed. If there are many people visiting something, then the final mistake will be inevitable."
Wang Hua said this now, it depends on how hard the backstage master is. Can he help him cover up and reduce this trouble.
He said again: "There is another idea."
“Please say,”
Wang Hua's idea is very simple, but it works very well. Whether it is to buy Baolinzhai or find it, I found a few tall watchdogs and tied them in front of the door. But the bolt was tied, but the iron chain was deliberately placed for nearly ten meters long. This is even worse than being tied. The dog becomes more and more fierce. But the iron chain is so long that it is a place far away from the door. Don't want to get close to strangers.
After hearing this, Manager He laughed badly, gave him a thumbs up and praised him.
Within two days, a few big dogs came. As expected, they were all tall and mighty dog breeds, and Wang Hua also saw a Tibetan mastiff.
Upon hearing this news, the princesses were about to go and see this strange boy, and they were embarrassed.
Wang Hua's trick of being a vicious dog guarding the door not only discouraged several curious princesses, but also reduced more trouble. Among the guests who came that day, Liu Youqiu didn't even have a Jinshi now, and no matter how successful he became. Although his family background was better than Wang Hua, he was now even more slight than Wang Hua. He didn't say anything.
There is another person, He Zhizhang, who likes to talk in a simple manner, so this kind of talk requires a scholarly style, but most talk about metaphysics, mysterious and sometimes mysterious, sometimes similar to Buddhist Zen. Therefore, he would not deliberately show off. However, one of them was not good. Once, Lao Du drank too much wine and began to speak wildly, pointing to ordinary students, saying, "The poems you wrote are still called poetry? If you divide your talents into ten dou, and I occupy eight dou, you have no side effects at all. Fortunately, the cattle herder occupied two dou, otherwise once I left this world, no one would have written good articles."
It turns out that the world's talent was occupied by him. No one cares about his remarks. Even Su Chen and Zheng don't wear shoes for him today. Why should I fight for the limelight like these little Ronaldo? But I'm very curious about the cattle herder. There are many people in the world who herd cattle, but only one cattle-herding boy has been widely spread by Luoyang people.
Some people who are flirting will ask.
Lao Du drank too much wine and vomited out anything.
When these literati heard this, they wanted to go, but Lao Du suddenly woke up at this time. He thought of Wang Hua driving them out in front of the prince. He probably took this large group of people to disturb him, and it would be even worse.
He was drunk and refused. But Lao Du also mentioned the general scope. Some people looked for it carefully and found the location of the farm. But when they saw the tall evil dogs in front of the door, they didn't dare to get close.
However, in this way, some people feel unhappy. They say some bad remarks, but after calming down, they think that they don’t even have to flatter the prince and may not care about their words. So they feel bored. Although it’s sour to eat grapes, they secretly have to admire Wang Hua’s backbone.
Therefore, Wang Hua still lived a relatively peaceful life in April.
He even sneaked into the city to see the peony flowers. It was the season when peony blossoms were in full bloom, but Wang Hua was very disappointed. Although Luoyang was the capital of peony flowers in the world at this time, most of the precious varieties were hidden in the palace or in the deep courtyard of everyone. He could only occasionally see peonies blooming like fire from the gaps in the walls of some wealthy families.
After walking for more than a long time, I saw a black tree on the balcony of a small house in a market. The flowers were dark purple, and the buds were big and fertile. It could barely be regarded as a top-grade peony. So I went back unhappily.
But in this way, people finally knew why Baolinzhai fought with the Wang family.
It turned out that Baolinzhai was the one who was in charge of Wang Hua's production of new lacquerware. In fact, most people have seen Wang Hua's lacquer boxes, but some people are still worried about Wang Hua. This time, Hanlinzhai gathered countless skilled craftsmen, and Xue Li, who took action. Wang Hua's winning face looked very misty.
When Wang Hua heard these remarks, he smiled slightly and refused to comment. But he still attracted a few people. Lu Ergou and the other four ran over from the city. In fact, the farmhouse was not far from their home. After leaving the city, he arrived in a while.
They were also afraid of these evil dogs, but the few people were not like those literati, scholars, or princesses, standing in the distance and shouting at the top of their voices: "Alang, Alang, do you want us?"
Nowadays, Man Luoyang often talks about the deeds of this little master. Whether it is sincere or false, the little master's thighs are about to be tightened.
Wang Hua had no choice but to take them into the farm. He said righteously: "Don't call me Alang again in the future. If you want to call me Erlang."
I am not old yet, why are you calling me? Do you think I am aging before I grow old?
"Yes, yes," the few people pointed their heads straight.
However, Wang Hua still showed a smile on his face and said to them: "Now I will give you a chance. If you really want to join my disciple, you can do it."
The four people were overjoyed. Who was he who knew who he was, and he knew that he was a gangster on the street. Who is Wang Hua now? The young man from the Tang Dynasty who had the best backbone in Luoyang, let alone his knowledge. Of course, Wang Hua did not pursue fame and fortune, but was obsessed with lacquerware production, which made some people feel deeply dissatisfied. But no matter what, he was not compatible with Wang Hua. Although some wealthy families also took slaves, they were also very picky about slaves.
Wang Hua's words meant that he had officially accepted his subordinates. Lu Ergou said: "Erlang, don't worry, we will be trampled on Erlang and die for allegiance."
This is also necessary. As a slave, the primary goal is to be loyal to the master. As for the country and nation of the court, it cannot be considered at all. There is no human rights to speak of. Of course, there is no word human rights now. On the contrary, some people are not ashamed of being slaves in order to enter some slaves or promising families, but they are proud of them. It is just because Wu Zetian deliberately suppresses some wealthy families and encourages slaves to sue the master. In fact, most of the time, they are false to the master. This has caused some unjust cases, but it has also made the superiors slightly change their attitude towards slaves. This is also one of the things that Wu Zetian did, but the right places are greater than the wrong places.
"I will not let you work hard, but I need you to be loyal to me. Even if you don't work hard for me, it doesn't matter, but you must not betray me." Wang Hua must make it clear that he has no obvious enemies, but there are many enemies who are hostile to him, and they are very powerful. If you buy them and falsely accus yourself of him, then your situation will be dangerous.
"Erlang, don't worry."
It is unknown whether Wang Hua is really at ease or not, but he really needs help. However, even if he really takes them under the sect, Wang Hua will still be on guard. The couple are the same forest birds, and when the disaster comes, they will fly their own lives, and outsiders!
Wang Hua's understanding of human nature is still a theory of evil nature. Otherwise, he would not be so careful everywhere. Of course, it was this point that made his trip to Luoyang this time dangerous or unlucky.
But now Wang Hua did not assign their tasks. Instead, he asked them to read, but they could not do without culture. Only by learning some cultural knowledge can they have greater use in the future.
In addition to disturbing him some of this incident, Wang Hua began the intense production process. Gradually, the lacquerware began to take shape. It was only a long time before it was completed. This was too urgent.
It was almost May. On this day, Wang Hua was making one of the more than 100 lacquer paintings. This lacquer painting tells the story of Tang Sanzang passing through the Flame Mountain. This flame mountain is real, but it is not as mentioned in "Journey to the West", where fire ignites on the mountain. It is located in the Turpan Basin and is the northern end of the Silk Road. Because there is no grass growing, the mountain is ochre-red, and it looks like a rising fire dragon, so it is named. However, Tang Sanzang actually passed by this place when he went to the West to obtain the scriptures.
Suddenly there was a strong fragrance coming from his nose.
