Chapter 478 Great beauty comes from life
? The first meeting of the "Crouching Tiger Invention and Creation Council" which was specially written by historians, scientists and inventors of the Han Empire ended in a noisy mood of a group of masters from all walks of life, either excited, confused, surprised, or longing.
The reason why it is called the first meeting is that this accidental gathering was just the beginning, and later evolved into a system and was retained. At the first meeting, Zhao Xing had only arranged more than twenty of the inventions and productions. It was not that he deliberately wanted to hold down some ideas and not announce them, but because the 20 products that had been arranged also required the craftsmen who attended the meeting to be busy for a while.
As the saying goes, eating rice must be eaten bite by bite, and the road must be taken step by step. As long as Zhao Xing’s wonderful ideas are used to turn these uncomplex productions from later generations into reality, it is just a matter of time.
For example: as long as the carpenters make wooden handle toothbrushes that meet Zhao Xing's design concept, he will explain to them how to make brushes for washing clothes, brushes for washing shoes, and designs of washboards...; after Hua Tuo developed several types of toothpastes suitable for mass production, Zhao Xing will teach him how to make soap, then soap, and then shampoo...; After the blacksmiths made honeycomb coal stoves that are easy to use for the people, Zhao Xing will guide them to make pressure cookers, and then large water boilers...
Just like when making horseshoe saddles and stirrups, many times the skilled craftsmen of the Han Dynasty did not lack craftsmanship and materials. What they lacked was only an idea. Although Zhao Xing did not have superb craftsmanship and could not be a versatile talent who was proficient in everything, what he did not lack was ready-made ideas and ideas. In addition, Zhao Xing now has the power and strength to change the world, so as long as he guided and supported it, it is certain that it will not take long to see a wave of new commodity production and manufacturing sweeping across the Han Dynasty!
On the third day after the innovation task was arranged, diligent craftsmen came to Zhao Xing with their carefully designed items to report good news to him. Those who came were carpenters who made toothbrushes, tailors who made bras and briefs, and several disciples of the miraculous doctor Hua Tuo. Their beards were unshaven, their eyes were as red as rabbits, and their eyes were black in circles around their sockets. Obviously, they didn't have much rest, so they worked overnight to make the design tasks assigned by Zhao Xing.
Looking at the handmade toothbrushes in his hand that were faintly scented with woody fragrance, Zhao Xing felt very emotional. The bristles of the toothbrush are made of the best pig bristles and soft sheep hairs. The hardness is moderate and the length is also appropriate, and there is no shoddy fabrication that Zhao Xing thought. Especially the wood choice for the toothbrush handle, boxwood and pine wood are used with better elasticity, and some exquisite patterns are carved on the handle.
There is no doubt that these carpenters who designed toothbrushes have completed the work assigned by Zhao Xing as the most important task in their life, so they have made handmade toothbrushes that are comparable to works of art.
After taking several toothpastes of different colors and fragrances from Hua Tuo's disciples, Zhao Xing's inner feeling changed from emotion to shock. Zhao Xing used the mint-type toothpaste prepared by Hua Tuo himself with water. Although the green paste does not look as solid as the toothpaste in later generations, and there is no very rich foam after entering, the taste is definitely not much worse than the real toothpaste. While brushing his teeth, Zhao Xing thought to himself that if he had made a choice, he would rather use the toothpaste prepared by Hua Shen Doctor. After all, this thing is a pure natural "organic toothpaste" without any chemical ingredients!
He spitted the white foam in his mouth smoothly, Zhao Xing wiped the corners of his mouth, and said happily to several carpenters and Hua Tuo disciples who were around him: "I announce that the production of toothbrushes and toothpaste has been a complete success! All the people involved in these two designs have made merits. You will keep the production method confidential for the time being and wait for the task I will give you next!"
So everyone's nervous and inexplicable mood suddenly relaxed, and they all showed joyful expressions. At this moment, several tailors who were already on the periphery rushed in and said loudly: "Please ask the Taifu to use the bras and underwear we designed!"
The Taifu, who was originally excited, couldn't help but blush after hearing the words of several tailors, and quickly pulled them into his study. What a joke, let Zhao Xing try on his bra in public. Even if the Taifu has such a thick skin, he must have such a good figure, right?
After entering the study, Zhao Xing quickly closed the door and asked several tailors to take out their "brain crystallization" from the tightly covered wooden boxes.
Looking at the tailors neatly arranged a row of bras of various colors on their desks, Zhao Xing's originally calmed immediately rushed with blood and waves. Zhao Xing suddenly remembered that someone once said: True beauty and art all come from life. This is really damn reasonable!
There were more than a dozen colorful bras in front of Zhao Xing, with different cup sizes and different materials used. The most commendable thing is that the front of the bra is embroidered with various patterns such as birds watching the phoenix, mandarin ducks playing in the water, peacocks spreading their tails, dragons and phoenixes showing good fortune, peony wealth and other various patterns, none of which are repeated! Zhao Xing could pat his chest and say that whether in his past or present life, what he saw now was definitely the bra with the highest artistic content.
Zhao Xing asked a few tailors around him with some curiosity: "How did you think of embroidering patterns on it, or even making many types of different sizes?"
A brave tailor answered Zhao Xing in a stern manner: "The Taifu is busy with official business, but he takes time to summon us to discuss matters. I believe the things we make must be very important. So after I went back, I discussed with my wife. The woman was careful and put forward many ideas. I felt it was reasonable, so I discussed with them, so I made these bras."
"Very good. You can think and make the work from the perspective of the user, and you will have to brainstorm this way in the future. Your design and production are also very successful. Everyone has made meritorious contributions. Let's stay here for the time being. Go home and wait for me to summon the mansion to discuss matters again!" Zhao Xing praised and encouraged everyone, and then sent the first batch of masters who came to send the design samples out of the mansion.
Sitting in the study, Zhao Xing looked at the rows of bras competing against each other on the desk and a stack of shorts in the wooden box, and his heart began to ripple. When he thought of the hot scene of bringing several wives together at night and letting everyone use bras one by one, he immediately forgot his lofty identity as King Jin and King Liang Fu, and only a bunch of thoughts left...
