After months of busy work, he finally had a few days of rest. Qin Mubai enjoyed it very much and cherished it. In the next few days, no one came to disturb him. He spent time at home with his family and discussed with his father.
They competed in the art of war, chatted with their mother and little sister, and tasted the snacks made by Shuang'er.
After not seeing each other for a few months, Shuang'er's cooking skills have shown great improvement. She can even make sweet-scented osmanthus cakes that are as fragrant as durian cakes, which shows that her cooking skills have been perfected.
After dinner, Qin Mubai went out for a walk in the West Market and sat in the No. 1 Liquor in the World. Every evening, Wu Meiniang would come to the store to do the accounting. He would chat with her and occasionally help her settle the accounts. The two finally settled down.
It's a bit like a pair of lovers.
Wu Meiniang said that now there are many shops in the West Market that operate like hers, and the competition is very strong. The best wine in the world must be innovative--so she asked Qin Mubai to help write more pipa and martial arts songs.
.As for those two songs, "Ambush from Flying Daggers" and "The Overlord Takes Off His Armor", no matter how good they sound, people will still get tired of them!
This was not difficult. Qin Mubai immediately wrote down a few songs and asked Yao'er and others to learn them. But at this time, he thought that just renovating the songs in this way was not a solution. This kind of thing is always very popular among people.
Learn quickly. You have to find a way to be unique and make it impossible for others to imitate.
A bright light flashed in his heart, Qin Mubai had a solution.
Entering the imperial city, he went straight to the general prison and found Tu's order from the left school office. Tu's order thought it was Qin Mubai who came to ask for weapons. He was very panicked for a while and said, "It's like a tiger's head chisel."
Weapons like the golden gun would still be difficult to complete even if we work on them in less than ten days and a half.
"It's not busy. Slow work will bring out fine work. Now is not a war time, and we are not in a hurry to use it." Qin Mubai said, "I came to the department today because I have something else to ask for."
Tu Shuling breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "General, if you need anything, just ask."
Qin Mubai took out a stack of pictures that he had spent a lot of effort on and said, "I want Tu Shuling to help me build this thing."
"What, what is this?" Tu Shuling looked at the drawings on the paper and asked blankly, "It looks like a table, but it is taller than the table; it looks like a bed, but it has a strange shape, and it needs to be used like this.
What a strange steel bar... Huh, I don't know what the use of this thing is, can you please tell me, General?"
Qin Mubai smiled and said: "This thing is called a 'piano'. It is an extremely high-end and complex musical instrument. Presumably, no one in the Tang Dynasty could have made it except for a skilled craftsman like Tu Shuling."
"Musical instruments?!" Tu Shuling was dumbfounded, "I have served in the Zuo Campus for more than 20 years. All the musical instruments in the palace come from here. Such complex musical instruments are really unheard of!"
"You've never seen it, that's right." Qin Mubai said with a smile, "How about it, are you sure you can build it? It's very difficult! However, if you really build it, it will be a great achievement for the contemporary generation.
Your glorious name will definitely remain in the history of Chinese music for thousands of years, which is of great epoch-making significance!"
"Okay!" Tu Shuling gritted his teeth, "I will do my best and devote all my efforts to build this piano!"
"Every component must not be careless, otherwise the sound quality of the entire piano will be inferior." Qin Mubai said, "I have marked the materials needed and the size and specifications of the parts. If there is anything I don't understand,
Please come and ask me anytime. In addition, even if it is caused, it will require multiple debugging and corrections."
"Okay. If there is anything you don't understand, please come and ask the general for advice. When it is finished, ask the general to try it yourself. Don't finish it until you are satisfied." Tu Shuling was also somewhat excited. Because he had heard about Qin for a long time.
Mubai is the name of the great pipa master. Now he is tinkering with this new instrument. If he becomes famous in the future and pianos become popular in the Tang Dynasty, then wouldn’t he, the luther maker, also become famous for a while? Even as he said
----famous in history!
"This is the wages." Qin Mubai put down a piece of gold.
