Who was the earliest carpenter in the history of mankind? It was definitely not Lu Ban, but most carpenters regarded Lu Ban as their ancestor.
Liu Changan was not a professional carpenter, nor did he recognize Lu Ban as his ancestor. However, he still appreciated a capable person like Lu Ban. It had nothing to do with the so-called craftsmanship spirit, but it was the spirit of invention and innovation. Although many of his inventions had more advanced replacements, Liu Changan remembered that just 20 or 30 years ago, carpenters who widely used Lu Ban's inventions such as the ruler, the inkpot, and the plane were still very active.
The profession of carpentry was not flourishing at the moment, and there was little to promote the craftsmanship spirit. It was worse than making a kitchen knife. In the future, when 3D printing became more popular, the various carving techniques that carpenters worked hard to master would naturally be forgotten by the popularization of technology.
In fact, many of the most exquisite carvings were no longer done by craftsmen.
Similarly, there were many extremely complicated paper-cut handicrafts. There might only be eight to ten people in the country who could reach such a high standard. For a machine, learning to operate it in three minutes, inputting the blueprint data, and a finished product that was ten times more complicated could also be made by a primary school student.
The primary school students here did not include Zhou Dongdong. After all, she was still a primary school student, and she was particularly stupid. Things that others could learn in three minutes, she might need to learn …
Generally speaking, all technological innovation results were overtaking. Therefore, in order to surpass a country that had mastered the authority and standards of the old technology, one had to work hard in the field that could establish new standards in order to surpass it. Otherwise, one would forever be a follower.
For example, the Indians were very smart. 'Others build aircraft carriers, we can develop Star Destroyers first.'
Liu Changan was still using a handsaw and a plane. Slow work yields fine work, and he did the repair work unhurriedly. In fact, he could buy a new table for a few dozen yuan, but that seemed meaningless. Zhou Dongdong's goal was not to have a new table, but to repair an old table … Therefore, from this small matter, it could be seen that modern humans were not made with a logical foundation as the core. Or rather, the assembly line that made humans added a reaction system that was beyond Liu Changan's understanding.
"Zhou Dongdong, are you a robot?" Liu Changan looked at the child who was touching everything around him, trying to help, but in reality, she was only a troublemaker.
"I am! I am, I am! "
"Then I'm going to turn off your power."
"No!"
"Pa, it's off."
"I opened it myself again!"
"How can there be a robot like you?"
"I am such a robot."
This kind of robot was really annoying. Liu Changan was ready to paint it. He brought the robot to sit under the Chinese parasol tree and told her that if she was obedient, there would be delicious food. The robot that didn't listen to orders finally became obedient.
Liu Changan finished painting and did not hang the table on the tree. Instead, he placed it on the top of the carriage for ventilation.
Zhou Dongdong was still sitting next to the puddle, feeding the loach tofu dregs, and asked Liu Changan: "Brother Changan, will there be thunder today?"
"No." Liu Changan looked at the weather and shook his head.
Zhou Dongdong was very glad to look at the loach in the puddle, and then pursed her lips.
Liu Changan also looked at the loach in passing. Zhou Dongdong was very diligent in feeding the loach. These loach were all fat and round. Since he released his college entrance examination results, he did not send any hens to Shangguan Dandan. Now more than a month had passed, but Shanghai Dandan did not show any signs of discomfort.
Could it be that after she woke up, absorbing vitality was no longer essential to her?
Liu Changan thought so, and then turned his head to see a similar face wrapped in the sunset. Xin Qiji's poem floated in his mind in an instant. His sleep was calm most of the time. He did not look for her thousands of times in his dreams. When he suddenly looked back, that person finally traveled through a hundred years of time and walked slowly.
A few stones under Liu Changan's feet fell into the puddle, stirring up a burst of loach. Liu Changan thought that it was the tofu dregs that Zhou Dongdong dropped. He looked down. Under the shade of the tree, there was no strong reflection of the water. It was not that he was dazzled.
But she had passed away. Her bones were only found and reburied after the founding of the country. No one could be resurrected. Traveling through time and space was only a privilege of future human beings. The beautiful woman of a hundred years ago was no different from the countless women in history. The flower flashed, the waves in the river of time, and then the river continued to move forward. The waves were only in memory, remembered or not remembered.
"Jin … er …"
Liu Changan's lips opened slightly, and a few inaudible sounds came from his throat. He slowly raised his eyelids, reached out and splashed a splash of water on his face.
"What are you doing?"
The familiar voice was cold with a different tenderness from the person close to her. There was a sense of pride and playfulness in it. It seemed that she could not help laughing.
Liu Changan came back to his senses and smiled. He did not look back. He just looked at the sycamore tree in front of him and raised his sleeves to wipe his cheeks.
It was Qin Yanan, not Ye Sijin.
Zhou Dongdong also splashed a splash of water on her face. It was not fun at all. Then she wondered, what was brother Changan doing just now?
"Zhou Dongdong, why are you learning from him again?" Qin Yanan quickened her pace a little. It was really strange that an adult and a child were squatting next to a muddy puddle and splashing water on their faces.
Just now, Liu Changan's reaction must have misunderstood that she was Ye Sijin. This made some doubts in Qin Yanan's heart even more, but this was the effect she wanted. Qin Yanan could be sure that even if Liu Changan saw An Nuan wearing a cheongsam, he would not be as absent-minded as he was just now.
"I thought it would be fun!" Zhou Dongdong said disappointedly.
Qin Yanan could not understand Zhou Dongdong's brain circuit. This water was not clean. One adult and one child's brain was not normal.
"You're back." Liu Changan turned around and revealed his usual gentle and ordinary smile as he looked at Qin Yanan, who was wearing the "dissecting" custom-made qipao.
Qin Yanan was one of the few young women without bangs among the beautiful women that Liu Changan knew. The other one was Liu Yuewang. Girls like An Nuan and Zhu Juntang naturally liked the feeling of bangs, and the Third Madam saw her several times with bangs.
Bangs were very important to girls. Many girls especially hated it when people fiddled with their bangs, because it would make them look completely different, and even make them panic. They were afraid that they would show a different and ugly look in front of others, and they would no longer be themselves.
