Not to mention Sheng Tang, Shen Yao, and even Xiao, who often visits the Forbidden City, have never been to Juanqinzhai.

When Teacher Xu brought them in, part of the room was under renovation, but the related items were placed neatly, which did not affect the beauty of the entire Juanqinzhai.

In the huge Forbidden City, Juanqinzhai is the highest and most luxurious in terms of architectural specifications and decoration level, so Teacher Xu was very proud when he introduced it.

Shengtang was momentarily shocked when she followed the teacher's lead into Juanqinzhai. It was more like a large bamboo forest museum. Everything as far as the eye could see was made of bamboo, from the bed to the ornaments to the window edges.

Really spectacular.

Jiang Zhi and the others all had a background in restoration. When they entered Juanqinzhai and looked at the bamboo weaving craftsmanship all over the house, they reflexively asked how to repair it.

Xiao Ye clapped his hands behind his back and clicked his tongue, shaking his head, "I feel comfortable that Lord Qianlong is taking care of me. How troublesome it is to repair the bamboo crafts in this room." He looked back at Jiang Zhi and asked him, "Really?"

Jiang Zhi stood by the window, with his hands leisurely in his pockets, looking at the pattern on the lattice fan, and said, "It's a spring-turning process, which is really laborious, and there are very few people who dare to repair the spring-turning nowadays."

When Teacher Xu heard this, he repeatedly praised Jiang Zhi for his expertise. Spring flipping is a folk craft that has been popular since the Qianlong period and has been passed down to this day. There are only a few people who understand this craft and have exquisite workmanship. Jiang Zhi specializes in mural restoration. It is really surprising to be able to tell at once that this is a spring-turning process.

Sheng Tang had sharp ears. When he heard the new term, he quickly rushed to Jiang Zhi's side, with a flattering smile on his face. No matter how he looked at it, he looked like Jiang Zhi was holding a box of dog cans...

“It’s quite difficult to repair the flip spring.”

Jiang Zhi glanced at her and said, "Separating people is not very difficult for you, but it is more difficult than climbing to the sky."

Sheng Tang is both realistic and merciless. According to Sheng Tang's character, he has been planning a plan for revenge since he heard these words. However, Sheng Tang also has another skill, that is, he is shameless.

Of course, Shengtang redefined this character: not ashamed to ask questions.

"I'm just a rookie, I don't even have the skills to repair murals, let alone this kind of traditional craft? But it must be a piece of cake for Master."

National protected cultural relics cannot be touched with bare hands. Jiang Zhi looked at the craftsmanship carefully and replied calmly, "I don't have the ability either."

Instead of flattering, Sheng Tang kicked the steel plate.

Fortunately, Jiang Zhi did not continue to harm her, "The bamboo turning is generally a craft passed down from generation to generation. In the early days, it was passed down from family to family and not to outsiders. Those with that kind of talent had to formally kowtow to the master before they could do it. Bamboo making is good. The craftsmanship can still be found in Fenghua, Ningbo. The older generation of craftsmen will worship the ancestors every year on the seventh day of the fifth lunar month. Can you guess who it is?"

Sheng Tang is very clever, since it is handicraft...

"Luban!"

Jiang Zhi smiled with satisfaction, "In the mid-1970s, there was a Luban Hall of more than 300 square meters in Fenghua. On the day of worshiping Luban, masters from all walks of life in the city took their disciples to the temple to offer incense and pay homage. , among all the masters, the bamboo reed craftsmanship is the most glorious."

Sheng Tang felt so cool just thinking about that picture.

Xiao Ye and Shen Yao were watching and discussing from diagonally across the street, while Jiang Zhi was cooking a small stove for Sheng Tang.

"Ningbo produces bamboo, and the quality of the bamboo is excellent, so the bamboo spring craft has been inherited in Fenghua." He pointed to the bamboo silk on the lattice fan, "The bamboo used in the spring spring craft is very particular, and the age of the bamboo is very important.

It can’t be too old, it can’t be too young, it can’t be too brittle, it must be three to five years old, and it must be bamboo that grows in loess and faces south.”

God...

Sheng Tang sighed, "Sometimes there are people who fish in troubled waters..."

"There are rules in the industry." Jiang Zhi said softly, "Just like the paints we use to repair murals, some are mineral pigments, and some are mineral-added plants... plants..."

He hesitated.

Sheng Tang was getting excited after hearing this, but was very puzzled when he suddenly stopped talking.

But Jiang Zhi quickly returned to normal and continued, "Mineral pigments pay attention to the composition and origin. Although plant pigments are rarely used, they have many requirements, such as soil, climate and sunlight conditions. Some even have male and female and bee pairs.

The nectar collection of flower stamens."

Sheng Tang has always known about the importance of mineral pigments in murals. Some murals are in disrepair not because of the craftsmanship, but because of the lack of pigments. Many times, restorers have to constantly dig out new pigments for experiments to see if they can replace the lost ones.

The possibility of minerals.

Jiang Zhi went back to the spring-turning process.

"Take bamboo, peel off the green skin, slice it into layers, use only the inner layer of bamboo springs about 2 mm thick, boil them in boiling water for 2 hours, put a heavy object on the softened bamboo springs and leave them aside for a few days, then flatten the bamboo springs

The spring is glued to the bamboo semi-finished product, the seams are left traceless, the whole is planed and polished, then carved or painted for decoration, and finally waxed and spray-painted, this is the entire process."

He led Shengtang to the table again and motioned her to observe, "Like the ones on the lattice fan just now, and the position of the corner teeth you see now, they are all made of spring-turning technology. They should have been repaired.

The restoration workmanship is indeed very good.”

Sheng Tang said "Ah".

Jiang Zhixiao asked her what she thought of.

Sheng Tang said seriously, "I used to like to use bamboo chopsticks when eating, but things like bamboo tend to crack when used, and I even pricked my mouth once. I saw that the bamboo products in Juanqinzhai are not cracked.

, it’s probably because of the spring-turning process.”

Jiang Zhi nodded, "Yes." He looked sideways at her, smiled again, raised his hand and rubbed her head, "Why are you so greedy?"

Sheng Tang choked.

Are you hungry?

A grown man loves sweet drinks so much...

Xiao Ye was the closest to them. He stepped forward and looked at Jiang Zhi with a smile. "It's amazing. You can speak so clearly about spring turning technology."

"When you see a lot, you naturally become knowledgeable." Jiang Zhi chuckled.

Xiao Ye curled his lips, really showing off.

But I have to be convinced in my heart, I really know a lot more.

Jiang Zhi didn't bother to pay attention to him and entered the back room through the door on the side.

Xiao Ye raised his chin at Jiang Zhi's back and said to Shengtang, "Xiaopitang, if you don't understand anything in the future, you can ask me. You can't let the old stubborn have too much sense of superiority."

"Who are you calling Xiaopitang?"

"You are sweet, sticky, and lovable."

Sheng Tang stretched out his index finger and poked Xiao Ye hard on the chest, "You can say I'm sweet, you can say I'm attractive, but you can't say I have sticky teeth. Whose teeth do I stick to? I'm so proud!"

All right……

Xiao Ye covered his chest, his fingers were too thin and it hurt him.

"Xiao Pitang, I sincerely advise you to be gentle."
