"I wonder what kind of wood strips you want? What are their dimensions?"
Xiao Han didn't expect that after he told him about the work, the craftsman who was worried one second would change the next moment!
The expressions on the faces of several people are no longer as timid as before, but instead contain a touch of confidence!
"perhaps……"
He glanced at a few people in surprise, Xiao Han gestured with his fingers, and said to them: "It's about this thick and about the same length. The key is that the shape must be regular, preferably exactly the same!"
"That's no problem!"
Among the carpenters, an older one nodded in agreement, then without further ado, he took off his robe from his back, took out his tools, picked up a piece of wood, and started working.
With the first person setting an example, the others immediately followed!
The pavilion where Xiao Han was located instantly turned into a carpenter's house.
As the saw blade is being pulled, wood chips are flying, and the aroma unique to wood permeates the air. It smells really good!
Seeing people starting to work, Xiao Han wisely pulled Yin Can aside so as not to affect their work.
However, I have to say it.
The skills of these craftsmen brought by Yin Can are really amazing!
It only took a short while, and those pieces of wood turned into wooden strips of the same length!
I picked up a few finished wooden strips and looked at the light carefully.
Xiao Han found that these wooden strips were exactly the same as he said at the beginning! Just like they were poured out of the mold!
"Tsk, tsk, that's awesome!"
Uneasy, he changed a few more items. As a result, Xiao Han became more and more surprised as he looked at them!
The few people in front of me can achieve the precision of later generations of machine tools with just a pair of eyes and hands. This is a talent!
"Haha, the craftsman is so complimentary!" The oldest craftsman heard Xiao Han's praise, touched his beard, and his eyes narrowed into slits when he smiled!
Most people who eat handmade food are like this.
If you praise him for his good looks and money, he may not be happy.
But if you praise him for his good skills and beautiful work, he will definitely light up with joy!
"Oh, I almost forgot. I haven't asked you yet. Who are the masters?" Looking at these craftsmen, Xiao Han's eyes rolled and he suddenly became polite.
"Don't dare, don't dare..."
When several craftsmen saw this, they didn't dare to express their gratitude and quickly returned the gift.
However, before they could finish speaking, Yin Can, with a dark face, stood between them and Xiao Han, separating their sight.
"Hey! This is my person! Don't make any plans!"
Knocking hard on the stone table in the pavilion, Yin Can unceremoniously revealed Xiao Han's thoughts.
"Ahem, who made the decision!" Xiao Han, furious, glared at Yin Can, trying to act like I was a gentleman and never thought about it that way.
However, Yin Can remained unmoved at all. He folded his arms and hummed twice: "You know in your heart whether you want to fight or not!"
"You... use the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman! I am too lazy to pay attention to you!"
Xiao Han was speechless. He held his neck and yelled angrily. Then he quickly lowered his head and picked up the wooden strips and asked the craftsman: "Don't listen to his farts. Do you know how to read?"
Several craftsmen looked at each other, wondering whether they should help their fellow masters deal with the guy in front of them. Xiao Han listened for a long time before hearing the oldest man say: "Well... I'll tell you, sir, you know something!"
"Well, you just carve a word on the top of each of the four wooden bars. Well, just carve it. Get twice the result with half the effort. You want words like a seal!" Xiao Han nodded and said.
"Here!" Seeing that they finally stopped mentioning their rules, several craftsmen breathed a sigh of relief and agreed. Then in front of Xiao Han, they took out their carving knives and quickly carved on the wooden strips.
The few people were moving very fast, and almost in the blink of an eye, four wooden bars with characters appeared in front of Xiao Han, and they were still regular seal characters.
"What do you mean?" Yin Can couldn't care less about being angry at this time. He took a step forward and looked at the wooden strips suspiciously, and then at Xiao Han. He seemed to understand, but at the same time he didn't understand at all.
.
"What do you mean? You'll know in a minute! Now polish the ink!" Xiao Lenghan ordered with a smile.
"What? You called me Momo?"
Upon hearing this, Yin Can suddenly raised his head and looked at Xiao Han, with a look of disbelief on his face!
He is Juzi, the head of a sect, and he is asked to grind ink? What is the difference between that and a young boy?
"Oh, it's so boring! Do you want to do it?"
Xiao Han was checking the wooden bars at this time, and when he heard the words, he scolded them without looking back.
"I..." When Yin Can saw this, his teeth were itching with hatred!
But when I think about the calligraphy method, I have to force myself to calm down! Be patient, you must be patient!
"I grind!"
"Isn't this the end? Hurry up and sharpen your skills! Don't even think about being lazy!"
Listening to Xiao Han's words, which seemed to be lecturing a servant, Yin Can almost couldn't hold back and exploded on the spot, pulling this guy's head over and grinding it on the inkstone! Fortunately, at the last moment, he still held back!
"It's sharpened!"
"Go, spread out the paper! Spread it out neatly!"
"I……"
"What am I? Should I spread it or not?"
"I...stall!"
Once again, I was humiliated and ordered around!
Yin Can suddenly realized that what the old man said before made sense!
Man, he can't compromise!
Because once you compromise for the first time, it means you will compromise countless times in the future...
Fortunately, Xiao Han did not let Yin Can compromise countless times.
Seeing that the paper had been spread out, he stopped talking nonsense, picked up the wooden strips arranged in his hand, dipped it lightly into the inkstone, and then pressed it hard on the paper.
Lifting up the wooden stick, several people looked over and saw that on the white paper, the four words "do twice the result with half the effort" were very clear!
"What are you..."
Yin Can’s head is at the front, and his eyes are almost on the paper!
Looking at the four big characters on it, he suddenly realized something. He raised his head and pointed at Xiao Han in shock, but saw that he had changed the order of the wooden strips, dipped in ink again, and pressed!
This time, what appeared on the paper were the four words "do twice the result with half the effort"!
The above "do twice the result with half the effort" just reverses the order, and the meaning is completely different!
"Do you understand?" Xiao Han threw down the wooden stick and looked at Yin Can proudly and asked.
Yin Can didn't speak this time, he just looked down at the wooden strips scattered on the table and the eight words on the paper, his eyes sparkling!
"Oh, I understand! When we print books from now on, we don't have to engrave all the words on a page! We just need to pick out the words on the page and print them!"
Yin Can remained silent, but Xiaodong, who was watching the excitement, suddenly slapped his forehead and screamed! But then, he frowned again: "But, this page must have hundreds of words, that is, how many words must it have?"
Are there hundreds of wooden sticks? Mr. Marquis, can you really pick them up with your own hands? They won’t fall apart."
"I$##@*!" Xiao Han rolled his eyes, no longer knowing how to describe Xiaodong.
People, it's okay to be stupid! But don't speak. Once you speak, won't everyone know that you are stupid?
