Yan Mao returned home and hurried to the bedroom.

After closing the door, I came to the table again. When I opened the drawer, I found that there were a lot of manuscript papers inside.

These manuscripts are basically designed with various knife bodies, but without exception, they are all waste manuscripts.

Yan Mao took out all these scrap manuscripts, and while comparing them, he took one of the books that Chen Chu bought for him from the desk. He followed the catalog and found the relevant page and started reading it.

At the beginning, Yan Mao refused to read books.

He was too lazy to read textbooks, let alone reading these books.

What aesthetics, stress, etc.

Mom! I feel a headache if I think about it!

But after all, Lao Chen is full of his heart. He bought everything. If he didn't look at anything, he would really be sorry for Lao Chen.

Well, I'll look at a directory!

At first, I just flipped through the directory and saw some interesting places, so Yan Mao flipped to the designated page and read it.

Among them, Yan Mao read the most is the history book about the Chinese knife forging.

China has a long history, so is it naturally forged knifes.

The traditional Chinese sword craftsmanship has always been at the top of the world in ancient times, and the steelmaking craftsmanship has a history of at least 2,500 years!

But unfortunately, ancient forged knives are constantly disappearing and have very serious historical faults.

There are many problems here, such as war, industry, market and other factors.

It can be said that this is a kind of inheritance, but this inheritance has not been able to be well continued.

Although many descendants are already working hard to protect and even carry forward the inheritance, it will take some time to truly continue this inheritance.

Whenever he sees this, Yan Mao will be more determined in his mind to become a knife-making craftsman.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this idea that Yan Mao picked up other books and read them.

As a result, it was out of control.

Just... it's quite interesting.

When Yan Mao began to try to design by himself, he found that he really had too little knowledge reserves.

At first, he didn't know how to start writing and designing, and then he had to start making up for it.

Then he started reading while designing. After working hard for a few days, he made a lot of waste manuscripts, which was completely a work that he could not satisfy.

I thought the design was good yesterday, but today I thought it was not possible, so I overturned it and started over again.

However, Yan Mao was indeed a little impatient.

I designed about thirty or forty pictures, each one was designed with great care, but in the end I felt that it didn't work, so it was quite uncomfortable.

Moreover, Chen Chu gave too many books, and each one was very thick. To be honest, if you want to understand these things thoroughly, Yan Mao felt that he didn't know that it would be the year of the Monkey and Horse Month.

The most terrible thing is that this is just an introduction and advancement. Only by learning these things can you basically call a knife maker. If you want to improve your level, you don’t know how many books you will read later.

Thinking about it, Yan Mao's mentality suddenly collapsed.

How can I learn this?

No results can be seen at all!

As Yan Mao looked at him, he couldn't see it anymore, so he put the manuscript aside and lay on the chair with his mind buzzing.

Irritable.

After thinking about it, I took out another piece of new manuscript paper and picked up the pen, but I didn’t know how to start writing.

Forget it, stop learning, go to bed.

Yan Mao lay on the bed, reached out and touched the pillow, and took out the short knife that Chen Chu gave him.

With the knife in hand, my heart calmed down instantly.

A few days later, Yan Mao was called to the office by Chen Chu.

When Yan Mao saw Chen Chu, he was naturally a little guilty.

"How are you reading the book? Have you learned anything?"

"Well... I learned a little."

Yan Mao's eyes were a little dodged, and Chen Chu frowned and said, "Tell me honestly."

“…”

Yan Mao had been struggling for a while, and stopped smiling bitterly, "Old Chen, I feel so tired."

“How to say it?”

"I designed a lot, but all of them were scrapped, which is very confusing!" Yan Mao sighed: "I don't want to continue to torture!"

Yan Mao's reaction was within Chen Chu's expectations.

After all, not everyone can stick to it.

What's more, with Yan Mao's current talent level, it will be difficult to follow this path without persisting.

"You have not learned to walk yet, but you are thinking about how to run away?" Chen Chu said: "You have to eat food one bite at a time, and you have to walk the road step by step."

"I'm sorry, I disappointed you!" Yan Mao lowered his head: "I really can't hold on."

"Okay!" Chen Chu stretched out his hand and patted Yan Mao on the shoulder: "You can't blame you all, the main reason is that I came up to show you so many things, and you may not be able to bear it. I also have some responsibility for this!"

"Don't rush to give up. When you go home at noon, you can bring all your scrap manuscripts and let's study them together?"

"OK."

At noon, Yan Mao went home and brought all his scrapped manuscripts to the Happy Stove.

Chen Chu found a seat on the first floor, and while having dinner with Yan Mao, he looked at Yan Mao's abandoned manuscripts.

"Is this the first draft?"

"yes."

Chen Chu began to browse all the scrapped manuscripts according to the date.

Since the first draft was just a simple appearance design, Yan Mao is making progress every time.

Sure enough, I learned something.

Until the last draft, Yan Mao took almost everything he could think about, and from the simple sketches that had evolved into multi-faceted design, including the thickness of the knife body, the length of the knife handle, the analysis of the force point, etc.

Although it does look a little immature, it is already amazing to be able to learn this in such a short time.

"Have you brought a pen?"

"Take it."

Chen Chu took the carbon pen and picked up Yan Mao's last scrap manuscript and began to explain: "First, let's start with the handle of the knife."

Chen Chu first drew an oval shape and then drew a cross coordinate in the middle.

"This is the shape of the knife tail, let's talk about it from the perspective of design..."

"Every design has its consideration, not a fixed shape..."

"It is necessary to make continuous adjustments as the person who uses it..."

Chen Chu used his own way to describe some very obscure or overly professional language as much as possible.

"Do you understand?"

Yan Mao nodded repeatedly.

Chen Chu talked casually for noon. Yan Mao listened very seriously. His originally collapsed mentality gradually recovered after listening to Chen Chu's explanation, especially many things that were not easy to understand. Chen Chu could understand them at a glance.

"It's not that you can't learn it, but that the method you learned is wrong!" Chen Chu said quickly: "Don't be stubborn by yourself. If you can't figure it out, don't keep thinking. If you don't understand, come and ask me if you don't understand! I didn't say I won't teach you!"

Yan Mao realized it later and laughed embarrassedly.

However, Yan Mao is indeed a special situation.

After all, this talent is too low, and his understanding is naturally not as good as that of a talent at level C or even B or above.

Of course, a large part of it is because Yan Mao’s foundation is too poor.

Even I can't read books well, let alone learn these more professional things.

In the top ten in the seventh class, Yan Mao was on the list again and again.

The first is Deng Sijia, who performed very stably, but since the lesson was completed, Deng Sijia stopped taking the exam. Of course, with Deng Sijia's current learning ability, it naturally no longer belongs to the countdown sequence.

Therefore, Deng Sijia has a great role model and is the last one to be admitted to Beiwu.

Whenever a student feels that he is not good enough, he will ask Deng Sijia to appear indirectly.

"I'll kill you"

...

While there was no class the next afternoon, Chen Chu borrowed a car and went out with Zhao Yizhou.

Yan Mao’s problem requires a better learning environment.

practice!

But it was very troublesome. Chen Chu searched a lot online and there were basically no irons in Jiangnan.

After all, when using knives now, most of them go directly to supermarkets or online shopping, and I’m afraid no one will go to the iron shop to make knives.

Moreover, there is no related casting industry in Jiangnan.

There are not many craftsmen anymore.

Chen Chu also asked the old teachers in the school for questions, but he really found something, but these old teachers didn't know if the iron-smithing craftsmen were still there, so Chen Chu could only go and find them himself.

I asked several addresses all at once, almost everywhere in Jiangnan City. At noon that day, the city lord ran outside to look for it.

To be on the safe side, Chen Chu still withdrew 3,000 yuan.

After all, I have to express this.

After all the fights, I will scan the code in the end?

That's so embarrassing.

It's better to talk about cash.

As a result, I finally found a place. Either the iron shop was demolished and built into a building, or the master died, and no descendants could inherit this craft.

Chen Chu even ran around the old town, but still couldn't find it.

This gave Chen Chu a headache.

He definitely can't afford professional equipment. If he built it himself, it would be quite troublesome. The most important thing is that there is a place to make a special blacksmith, and it won't make people disturb...

Anyway, if you really can't find it, you can only go to the suburbs to see if you can find a cheap warehouse and rent it out.

Chen Chu would never dare to think about this before.

But now it’s okay. Xingfu Xiaozhao can earn about 10,000 or 20,000 yuan a month. The school paid about 10,000 yuan. Guoan has made many major performances, and even the salary of his Guoan consultant has increased a little, more than 9,000 yuan a month.

Of course, the most important thing is... the police gave a total of 60,000 yuan in bonuses.

He has been brave and praised as an outstanding citizen many times.

Maybe it is because of the relationship between Wang Lebang.

Originally, Brother Long wanted to send the banners, and even contacted the school to ask Chen Chu to post newspapers or something.

Chen Chu quickly refused and didn't want the pennant.

Ahem, just give the bonus...

Thank you for your care and love, I reluctantly accepted the bonus.

But Chen Chu was a little restless after receiving this bonus.

I was afraid that the system would be back-sting again.

Fortunately, nothing happened.

From this point of view, it seems that I can only support myself by organization in my life...

He shook his head slightly, and now the last place is left without going.

However, this place is very far away, and it is about a hundred kilometers away from the south of the Yangtze River.

I’ve been here for a while, just go there. After finishing the last place, I can give up. Anyway, evening self-study is not my own class.

I bought a box lunch on the roadside, and I solved it casually, and filled it with oil and ran to the township.

After about an hour, I finally arrived in Xin'an Township, Jiangnan, and asked everyone about the direction of the iron shop.

In the end, the emperor pays off. The iron shop in this township is still there.

After asking the fellow villager, he came to the door of the iron shop. When he entered, he could see a master in his sixties, whose surname was Li.

When Chen Chu entered, he felt the heat coming from the blast furnace next to him.

I quickly talked to Master Li for a while and planned to take Yan Mao to the iron shop for a look at it on the weekend.

"This is strange. The little dolls are still interested in this area?"

"My son doesn't want to do these things!"

Master Li was very happy when he heard this, and he was also a good person, but he just thought it was because the child was curious and responded.

Then Chen Chu naturally couldn't use other people's iron shops for nothing, and delayed business, so he took out two thousand yuan to give it to Master Li.

"Master Li, you can accept this money first, which will delay your business at that time. This money will be considered as compensation for you!"

"No, no, no."

"Master Li, you really have to accept this money. The child will be curious at that time. If you ask questions, you can't tell me how to make a blacksmith! This money is just to pay the tuition fee, don't be polite!"

Anyway, it was enough to persuade Chen Chu to stuff the money into Master Li's hands.

In fact, Chen Chu originally planned to give it to 1,000 yuan, after all, 500 yuan per day is enough to rent it for two days.

However, Master Li is also very pitiful. After hearing from fellow villagers, Master Li's wife has some brain problems and her child has gone out to work. She has to take care of her wife by herself, so she gives her an extra thousand.
