The handicraft world of the future

"Thank you dad."

After Bai Yuzhi finished eating the oranges, he leaned his head on his father's shoulder. Even though he was so old, his father still took care of him as if he were a child of a few years old.Looking at the second brother eating oranges, he is full of childishness only in front of his father, because the second brother knows that his father wants him to be happy.

In front of daddy, they are just daddy's children, they can laugh or cry, they don't even need to maintain the demeanor of everyone's sons, they can play however they want.But once they leave their father, they are the heirs of the Bai family and the Feng family, and their words and deeds represent these two families.

"What are you father and son doing?"

Bai Qiuyu came back from outside, threw the bag to the servant, pulled his tie and sat beside his youngest son.

"Dad, eat."

Feng Yuanzhi stuffed a piece of orange into his father's mouth. He was slow to eat at his age, and now he still has a small half of the orange in his hand.

"Thank you Er Bao."

Rubbing the head of the second son, he swallowed the orange in his mouth.

"Call me Ayuan."

He is almost six years old, and it would be too ugly to be called Erbao.

"Okay, Ayuan."

Knowing that the youngest son's self-esteem was offended, Bai Qiuyu didn't insist, A Yuan was just A Yuan, and he was also young, knowing that children always have strange self-esteem in inexplicable places.

"Daddy, I want to eat the sauce skeleton tonight." A Yuan, who was in a good mood, began to order.

"Okay, I'll let Xiaobai marinate the pork keel now, and I'll do it tonight."

After Lin Xiaohai finished speaking, he went to the kitchen. The youngest son had already ordered food. As a father, he had to satisfy his son's wish.

Bai Yuzhi and his younger brother went back to their room to write together, while Bai Qiuyu went back to his study to work.

Walking into the study room, he saw the embroidered picture hanging on the wall, which was a gift from Xiao Hai a few years ago. The handsome man in the picture was of course Bai Qiuyu. He looked at the teacup in his hand with a calm face and a smile. , as if nothing could disturb his tranquility.

In the past few years, Xiao Hai's reputation has grown, especially after Xiao Hai's works won the silver and bronze awards two years ago, his reputation in China has finally reached its peak.

Huaguo became the biggest winner in the embroidery category of the Universe Contest that year.All the gold, silver and bronze went to Huaguo, and the gold medal was of course the "Great Wall" embroidered by all national masters in Huaguo.

The silver award was "Journey to the West" embroidered by Lin Xiaohai. Because it was embroidered into a picture, even aliens could understand the meaning of the embroidered picture, and because of his extraordinary embroidery skills, he won the silver award.Then there is the Bronze Award, the "Hundred Sons and Thousands of Grandchildren" embroidered by Lin Xiaohai in his early years. This picture has a very good meaning. Many aliens want to buy it, but it has become the most popular embroidery among the top three. .

Of course, Huaguo was not that stupid and sold this embroidered picture. Not to mention that the ownership of this picture does not belong to Huaguo, even if it is kept, it will be more profitable than selling it. The people in power in Huaguo are not stupid. It is best for China to do it.Therefore, the Hundred Sons and Thousand Grandchildren and Journey to the West were exhibited for a period of time and then sent back to China, and they were exhibited for another month before being sent back to the Bai family.

Feng Yuanzhi was a little unhappy at the time, but fortunately, this kid also understood that this was not because his father was partial, but because he was not born at that time and lost in time.

Of course, Lin Xiaohai would not be biased, but it would not be suitable to embroider a picture of a hundred sons and a thousand grandchildren, so he embroidered a picture of a children's play. The character is of course the second son Feng Yuanzhi, and he used rain embroidery. A piece of work is better than the picture of Hundred Sons and Thousand Suns. After all, his rain embroidery was not perfect at that time, so the picture of Hundred Sons and Thousand Suns used Shu embroidery.

In the past few years, he has seldom embroidered Shu embroidery, and now he embroiders mostly rain embroidery. In addition, Lin Xiaohai won the silver and bronze medals in the embroidery category of the Universe Contest, and he has now been automatically upgraded to a galaxy-level master. As the only galaxy-level master on Earth and Huaguo, Lin Xiaohai's works have now been fired to more than ten million, ranging from one thousand to 2000 million for the small ones, and three to 5000 million for the big ones, like his Baiziqian Sun Tu and Journey to the West were fired for hundreds of millions, and some people even called for a sky-high price of [-] million.

There are quite a few people asking for such a terrifying price on the Internet. Although Lin Xiaohai has repeatedly stated that these two works will not be sold, there are still many people who are interested in these two works on the Internet. He rubbed with Lin Xiaohai every day, and finally Until Lin Xiaohai got annoyed and said that one of these two works was donated to the National Museum by him, and the other was given to his eldest son Bai Yuzhi.

He didn't intend to donate Journey to the West, but as the only work that won the silver award, the country also very much hoped that Lin Xiaohai would be placed in the National Museum, and even offered a price of 5000 million yuan, although it was more expensive than the online one. It's half the price of the highest price, but it's not bad.Although the Great Wall won the gold medal, it is the work of all national masters in Huaguo, and it can represent the highest level of work in the embroidery industry, but it cannot be compared with Journey to the West.

Although the Great Wall won a higher award than Journey to the West, it was completed by many people, so only Lin Xiaohai was automatically upgraded to a galaxy-level master in Huaguo, and the other masters still received state-level subsidies and could not compete with Lin Xiaohai. Compared with Xiaohai.Now Lin Xiaohai has not only increased the state subsidy, but now has 1000 million credit points every year.The Galaxy branch of the Cosmic Alliance also gives him a subsidy of 2000 million cosmic credits every year. It can be said that Lin Xiaohai is indeed a rich man now.The ratio of universe credits to earth credits is one to five, which means that he can get 1000 million credits a year, which is still the kind that does not have to pay taxes.

These two subsidies will continue to subsidize him until his death, and Lin Xiaohai has at least 100 years of life span, so everyone can calculate how many credit points he can receive in his lifetime.

Even if he spends it very hard, Lin Xiaohai will never run out of this money in his lifetime.The Huaguo government also said that in the future, Lin Hai will be responsible for all the silk fabrics used by the state. He only needs to submit one piece of work to the National Museum every year. Regardless of the size of the work, Lin Xiaohai is happy with it.

With such excellent conditions, Lin Xiaohai of course agreed!Some precious and rare silk threads and fabrics are taken by Lin Xiaohai, and he only needs to submit one work every year. If Lin Xiaohai refuses such conditions, he will be a fool.So he readily agreed, and also promised that he would carefully embroider every piece of work, and would never shoddy and perfunctory the country.

So, as the only galaxy-level master, Lin Xiaohai's status in China is definitely higher than that of the country's leaders at present, and it can be regarded as a sigh of relief for the country in the universe.

This is also one of the reasons why Hua Guo has been under the influence of many empires in the universe for many years.They obviously won the gold medal back then. Originally, both of them could have won the title of universe level or galaxy level. However, because Huaguo and Earth were weak at that time, and the space competition did not want to expose their injustice, so they suppressed the titles of those two back then. The titles of the two masters were not even given to the galaxy level, and they were so angry that the two masters vomited blood. They were considered young at first, but they also died of depression because of this incident within two years.

Also because of what happened back then, Huaguo insisted on participating every year. Finally, they let out their depression in this session and raised their eyebrows to look at the empire that oppressed the earth and Huaguo back then.This time they didn't dare to do any more tricks, and could only watch helplessly as the embroidery class won the top three.Although the best of other handmade products is only the bronze medal, which cannot automatically upgrade the masters, but the embroidery class slapped the face of the organizer of the universe competition.

It is said that when the news came back, many insiders cried.Then how many hidden secrets were revealed with the three gold, silver and bronze awards in the embroidery category, and ordinary people in Huaguo knew that there were such competitions in the universe, but Huaguo had suffered hundreds of years of injustice.Today, Huaguo finally regained what it suffered back then, making other empires in the universe look at Huaguo and the earth with admiration, and at the same time let them Huaguo not be unable to do it, and we can do it too.

The news that Huaguo won the award not only made the entire Huaguo carnival for ten days, but even other countries in the world also had a carnival for three days.Huaguo's success not only allowed Huaguo to wash away his shame, but also made other countries see hope. As long as their works achieve that goal, they can become famous in the universe and win the reputation of their own country.

Lin Xiaohai was very busy during that time, there were many people who wanted to see him, and everyone he couldn't refuse.Later, he was exhausted and sick, so that he could be freed from the endless banquets.But even so, Lin Xiaohai has become a hero of the earth. He raised the handicraft industry's head again and told the universe loudly.

"We can, we can do it."

We have a handicraft industry that is not lost to the universe, why can't we get the award every time?In addition to external reasons, there are also reasons for the earth people themselves.That is, the aesthetic concepts are different. Every time the works of the people who take them to the competition are too strong in the style of the country and the nation, they choose to choose

Aliens don’t even know what everyone is doing, so how can those referees and the public appreciate the difficult and difficult subject matter!Although the technology is very good, but they don't understand the theme, so naturally they won't give high marks.

After participating a few times, Hua Guo also understood, so he was very careful in choosing themes, and tried to choose themes that could be understood by aliens.But in this way, Shen Yun will lose a few points, and this score is still not too high.

But this time the Great Wall, embroidery skills are naturally no problem.The theme is also very majestic, a complete landscape picture, those who watched it are very interested in the Great Wall, even if they don't understand the history of the earth, but after seeing such a great miracle, they can't help sighing a few times. Voice.

As for Lin Xiaohai's two works, one has a good meaning, and the other is popular and easy to understand. The two works also have the characteristics of Huaguo, and they are immediately loved by the public.And there is no problem with his technique, especially the Journey to the West embroidered with rain, which simply gave the aliens a popular science about the unique myths and stories of Huaguo, making them very interested in the history and culture of Huaguo .

It can be said that Lin Xiaohai advertised Hua Guo with his two works.In addition to the Great Wall, I heard recently that many aliens want to travel to China or the earth. Unfortunately, the Milky Way and the earth are stuck, not everyone can come here to travel, and there are also restrictions on the number of people.It takes a cosmic year to get a pass, so there are not many aliens who have traveled to China or the earth in the past few years, less than a million.

However, they all dressed themselves up as Earthlings, coupled with a universal translator, and wandering among the Earthlings did not arouse everyone's suspicion. Only a few of them revealed their identities and were sent out of the Earth.Because of this, people on Earth have been playing the guessing game for a long time, trying to find out who is an alien around them.

"teacher."

Zhu Xiaohua came to look for Lin Xiaohai with his latest work. Recently, the weather was cold and the teacher stayed at home and didn't like to go out. Even lunch was wrapped several times thickly before going to Bai's Building to deliver it.

Today Lin Xiaohai was wearing Hanfu, with a white fox cloak outside, and his whole face was buried in the plush fox fur.These rare furs in the past will be nothing in the future. The breeding industry is so developed that you can raise any fur you want.

"Xiaohua?"

Lin Xiaohai stood in front of the window to enjoy the scenery, because the window was open, so he was wearing thicker clothes and a cloak.

"Teacher, take a look at my work, is it at the level of a quasi-master?"

As soon as Zhu Xiaohua came in, he shook off a small amount of snow on his body. There was heavy snow falling outside, and snowflakes covered his body and head in just a short distance.

"it is good."

In the past few years, Zhu Xiaohua has learned embroidery from Lin Xiaohai, and he has already grasped the basics of embroidery skills.The only pity is that he can't learn Lin Xiaohai's unique skills and lacks talent.

"Teacher, when will you accept Second Junior Brother? Has he shown you his work recently?"

After Zhu Xiaohua finished consulting the teacher, he suddenly remembered Tong Ran, who was already half of the teacher.

"Pfft, the day before yesterday he took an embroidery picture for me to criticize, and the result was of course mediocre. As for when to accept him? The key is that he is still a little impatient now, so he needs to work on it. When will his temper be really good?" After the precipitation settles down, I will accept him again."

Lin Xiaohai thought of Tong Ran's various secondary school behaviors in the past few years. Blocking the gate of Bai's house is nothing. The funny thing is that he begged Lin Xiaohai to accept him as a disciple with flowers on various other occasions, which amused the public in the capital. .However, Bai Qiuyu made a mess of it, he dared to send flowers to his partner, and it was his luck that he didn't break his bones.

"Still grinding? Isn't he already able to sit quietly and embroider?"

Zhu Xiaohua didn't understand that people who can learn embroidery are not too active, because those who are too active can't sit still, let alone embroider.

"Then have you read his work?"

Lin Xiaohai took off his cloak, sat on the sofa and picked up the ginseng soup that Xiaobai had just brought, and asked him to serve Zhu Xiaohua a bowl as well.

"No, he was very careful not to show it to anyone but the teacher."

Shaking his head.

"That's it. If you have seen his works, you will know why I said that his temper still needs to be polished."

After finishing speaking, he shut up and stopped talking, and closed his eyes to rest.

"?"

Zhu Xiaohua didn't get any useful information, so he had no choice but to leave.

"Brother, how is it?"

When Tong Ran saw him coming out, he hurried up to meet him.

"Don't be in a hurry to call me senior brother, the master hasn't agreed to accept you yet~"

Zhu Xiaohua looked at Tong Ran who looked at him expectantly. Of course, this boy was said to be dismissive of his teacher, but he didn't expect that he would pester his teacher very much in the end. In terms of face, he was really not as good as him back then.

"Oh, it's a matter of time, let you get used to it now."

Tong Ran said cheekily that if he could be under Master Lin's sect, he would be able to do even more generous things.

"Okay, Shaopo! I won't talk nonsense with you, show me your work, and then I'll decide whether to tell you or not."

Zhu Xiaohua has always regarded his master as the standard. Since Lin Xiaohai has said so, it must be that Tong Ran has not done well in some places. He cannot rashly destroy the plan of the teacher's transfer and teacher's apprentice, so he needs to read Tong Ran's works Make a decision later.

"...Okay, come with me."

No matter how reluctant Tong Ran was, he took Zhu Xiaohua to see his work.

"you this……"

After seeing it with his own eyes, Zhu Xiaohua understood why the teacher said that the second junior brother still needs to work on it.

"How about it?"

A little on tenterhooks.

"not so good."

Zhu Xiaohua opened up all of Tong Ran's works, and after reading all of them, he had a good idea.Of course, although Tong Ran's work is not good enough in Zhu Xiaohua's eyes, and has many shortcomings in the eyes of the teacher, it is already considered good among ordinary embroidery masters, but it is only good.

Fortunately, Tong Ran has made great progress in the past two years. It can be said that his work on Lin Xiaohai's deliberate attack has surpassed his work a few years ago by more than one level.But looking at these works, there is still room for improvement. No wonder the teacher said that the time has not come yet, and he has to grind this future junior.

"really?"

Tong Ran is about to cry, is he that bad?Looking at my own work, it is clear that my family members and other embroidery masters say that I am very talented.

"Xiaoran, do you think talent can determine everything? Could it be that your talent is better than the teacher? "

Zhu Xiaohua looked at Tong Ran who was still unaware. His talent was certain, but it was also because of his talent that his eyes were a little too high.

Xinzhi is still a young man, don't think about prudence, and the second disease is getting more and more serious, so Zhu Xiaohua really doesn't want to hit this future second junior brother, but he will never understand why master is not needed without a heavy hammer The reason for not wanting to accept him as a disciple.

"How is it possible, if Master Lin's talent ranks second in Huaguo, Huaguo will never find someone who ranks first again."

Tong Ran was shocked, how could he be compared with Lin Xiaohai, even though he was a second grader and still seriously ill, he still knew that Lin Xiaohai's talent in embroidery was unique, a genius that was rarely seen in hundreds of years.

"You know, even the teacher never dared to say that he can achieve results without practice. Even now, the teacher still practices the basic acupuncture every day, and he didn't get carried away because he is the only galaxy-level master on the earth. The importance of basic acupuncture."

When Zhu Xiaohua mentioned this, he especially admired his teacher. Which master would practice the basic acupuncture repeatedly after becoming famous?They all patronize embroidery works to make money, but his teacher doesn't think so. The foundation is the foundation of a person in the teacher's view. If there is a problem with the foundation, no matter how good his embroidery skills are, he will eventually die because of the unstable foundation. There is a phenomenon of backward embroidery skills.
