The silly and sweet spring of crossing

"Can you show me the lamp you made?" Ding Ding asked very politely after seeing the lamp.Qiu Baichen nodded, and asked Wang Xian to take out the carousel that he had already made more than half of it from the warehouse.

"Ingenious workmanship." Ding Ding couldn't help admiring the revolving lantern, and Wang Xian lit the candles according to Qiu Baichen's instructions, and the huge lantern started to spin.

"I've never seen a lantern that can rotate by itself." Ding Ding looked at the revolving lantern, almost stunned, and really wanted to see the internal structure of the lantern, but Qiu Baichen was beside him, so he couldn't really reach out. To touch, to observe.In order to keep the issue of confidentiality, Qiu Baichen also did some tricks inside. If someone wants to disassemble it to see the structure, he will break the important parts of the lamp. So when he was in Yanglin County, Fuyuan Lamp Shop bought several revolving lanterns. Didn't see the trick either.

"Then can I take a look at your plan, and if it is feasible, I will definitely help you complete it." Although Ding Ding is arrogant, he admires a better craftsman than himself when he really sees a lamp. And I really want to learn something from him.

"Naturally, senior is polite." Qiu Baichen went back and took out his plan, and showed him the general idea.After reading his plan, Ding Ding sighed to himself that he was really old, and the young man's plan was very novel and interesting, so he nodded, no longer insisting that Wen Ling follow his ideas, but instead came to assist Qiu Baichen.

Of course, Qiu Baichen couldn't do so many things by himself, and needed the assistance of others.He detailed the overall plan and divided the work. Wen Ling was responsible for manpower, and Qiu Baichen was in charge of coordinating and checking.

Nearly three months passed in a blink of an eye, and the day before the lantern festival, all the lanterns were finally finished and placed together according to Qiu Baichen's suggestion, with a cloth covering them so that no one could see them.

The Lantern Festival took up two whole streets, and it was already midsummer, the air was very hot, and it got better at night.Because of this lantern festival, the curfew was lifted in the whole city today, and everyone came to watch the lantern festival.

"My lord isn't here today?" Wen Ling didn't expect that King Min would not show up for such a big event, and he didn't know what kind of illness he had. Although he was very upset, he didn't say much.Otherwise, it was as if she was a girl who wanted to see King Min so much.

"Mom, have you changed yet?" Wen Ling went to the Lantern Festival with Mrs. Wen today, and Tang Na would also bring people there, and then the two of them would watch together, and then the winner would be judged by a special person.

"Okay, okay." Wen Ling and Mrs. Wen set off, and when they arrived at the Lantern Festival, they saw Tang Na coming with her bodyguards.Wen Ling and Tang Na greeted each other with smiles on their faces, but both of them could see hostility in each other's eyes.

"Madam Wen, please go first." Tang Na gave way and let Wen Ling and the others go first.

The first thing I looked at was Tangna's lanterns. The lanterns on her side were mainly made of glass and crystal, highlighting the crystal clearness of the materials.The first thing that comes into sight is a huge lake, on which there are various colored lanterns floating on the lake, which are colorful and appear more translucent under the night.

There are all kinds of swimming fishes at the bottom of the water, all of which are made of glass and crystal. They are moved by the mechanism, just like swimming in the water, and even the fish eyes are lifelike.

Wen Ling felt that he couldn't take his eyes away. The lights on Donna's side were too dazzling. No girl could deny the beauty of this design.She pinched her palm with her nails, telling herself that the ones on their side were not weak, and she hadn't seen the finished product on her side, so she couldn't be weak in momentum.

Going forward, passing the lake, you can see the buildings around the lake. The architectural form is very similar to the church in Xinfang City, but it is also made of glass. house lights.

Fireworks were ignited between the buildings, dazzlingly dazzling, and everyone who came to participate in the lantern festival looked at the scenery with perfect eyes, and felt that it was really a miracle.

"This is the palace of our Jubei Kingdom." Donna stopped, smiled proudly, and introduced her hometown to Wenling.

"In winter, the palace is covered with white snow, and the fireworks are lit, making the scenery even more beautiful." As she spoke, Wen Ling saw snow floating on the palace, slowly covering the palace.The snow fell on the lake and covered the lanterns, making everything so unreal, so beautiful that it was almost unreal.

"If there is a chance, I hope that Miss Wen can go to my country to take a look." Tang Na was obviously very satisfied with what she saw, and Wen Ling still maintained a polite smile, and his momentum did not weaken at all.

"It's up to us now." Wen Ling smiled and led them to the street where his lantern was.

The cloth that originally covered the lanterns was uncovered. The first thing that catches the eye is the lanterns of various colors hanging on the shelf. The lights are embroidered with spring trees, tender green, and birds of various colors are perched on them. They raise their heads and sing, as if singing the song of spring. warmth.Looking down, there are various animal lights below, some on the ground and some in the water. The spring river is full of vitality.

Xinfangcheng's Xin embroidery is sold overseas and is worth a lot.In Jubei Kingdom, being able to afford the silk of Dachu, with Xinxiu embroidered on it, meant that the person was not only rich, but also powerful, and a handkerchief of Xinembroidery could make a nobleman show off.

Here, however, embroidery and silk are used recklessly, creating a springtime vibe at night that seems to smell like grass.

Tang Na was so fascinated by the beautiful embroidery that she couldn't take her eyes off it, but she had to follow Wen Ling to the front and leave the beautiful embroidery.

Walking forward, you will enter a new scene. The trees are lush and shining, and the animal lanterns are lifelike. It seems that they will run and jump in the next second.It can be seen that the people who make lanterns are not only good at making lanterns, but also very good at painting.

Summer brings a hot feeling to people, but for Donna, it is not as amazing as embroidery.They continued to walk forward, and the destination was a place of paper lanterns. There was a person standing next to each paper lantern. There were many words written on the paper lanterns, most of which were good wishes.

When they walked in front of these lamps, they saw that the paper lamps were lit up one by one, slowly becoming full, and then drifting away from people's hands, floating into the air together, lighting up the night sky.

"It's so beautiful." People couldn't help but look up when hundreds of Kongming lanterns were lifted into the sky together. They didn't continue to walk until those lights became stars in the sky, and walked inside along a door.

At this time, a servant brought a cloak, Wen Ling handed one of them to Tang Na, and put it on herself.The colder it got as they walked forward, and after passing the long steps, they saw the lights in front of them.

It's an ice lamp.

Carve ice into various shapes, paint it, put candles in it, and light it up when lit.Just now outside, the weather was still terribly hot, but now here, the air-conditioning blows in, refreshing and pleasant, even if you stand for a while, you still feel very cold.

Wen Ling led Donna to sit down at a table carved from ice. The chair she was sitting on was also carved from ice, but it was covered with thick cushions so that it wouldn't make people feel cold.

There was a utensil for warming wine on the table. Wen Ling took out the wine glass from it and handed it to Donna.Donna took the glass, took a sip slowly, and felt a warm flow from her mouth into her heart. The aroma of the wine was good wine here.

They lingered in the ice room for a while, and came out because they couldn't stand the cold.Everyone drank some wine, and their faces were a little red.

"Princess, who do you think will win this competition?" It was also the first time Wen Ling saw Qiu Baichen's complete design, even if it was against Tang Na, it was completely worthy.

"I like your embroidery, can you give me one?" Donna asked.

"I'm also very interested in glass lamps from your country," Wen Ling replied.

Although no one said who won in the end, everyone was happy with the result.

When they were all happy, Qiu Baichen also had a great time.He will not be present in the final contest. The group of them arrived at the Lantern Festival a little later, admiring the colorful lanterns.Qiu Baichen paid the most attention to the glass lanterns of Jubei Country. It seems that their glass manufacturing technology is already very good. If they can obtain such technology, they can look forward to making glass mirrors that are cheaper and clearer than copper mirrors. up.

"Little Chuliu, isn't it beautiful?" Qiu Baichen held Xiaochuliu in his arms, and Xiaochuliu looked at the lake and the various lights on the lake, opened his eyes wide without blinking, obviously very happy to see it.

Qiu Baichen was also very happy watching.In fact, the designs of both parties are a bit unconstrained, but it is not easy to realize their ideas with the current technology in the end.

He Lanyuzhi didn't say anything, but he obviously felt good about it.Later, He Lin and his mother expressed their feelings in a low voice. Wang Xian remained silent, but he was obviously shocked.

This made him more determined to learn how to make lanterns with Qiu Baichen, and he hoped that he could make such ingenious lanterns in the future.

"I really like those embroideries." Qiu Baichen said, these embroidery materials are the most expensive among the materials here, and if Wen Ling didn't have the help from Jingzhong, they would not be able to afford them.After the lantern festival was over, the lanterns were sold to the highest bidder in an auction. Afterwards, Qiu Baichen received a large sum of money, and he asked Wen Ling to inscribe it on him.

This thing should be kept as evidence.

Before the Lantern Festival was over, Qiu Baichen and the others returned home, lit all the lamps in the house, and drank together. The wine was the same as the wine in the ice room. It had been cellared for more than 50 years and tasted mellow.

Qiu Baichen felt that the wine tasted good, and the alcohol content was low now, so he drank some more, and got drunk unexpectedly.
