Chapter 247 Panoramic view
Wang Jinyi took in the expressions of the two people, but he couldn't suppress the joy on his face. He calmed down a little and asked:
"Fuling, how are your two apprentices doing?"
Fuling explained when the young lady asked about this:
"Miss, do you really have to let those two people learn from me? What I know is family knowledge and cannot be passed on to outsiders."
The more Fuling spoke, the lower her voice seemed, as if she was afraid that the young lady would be angry. Wang Jinyi knew that Fuling was telling the truth. In ancient China, any family inheritance would not be passed on to outsiders, and at the beginning of the inheritance, the inheritance would be guaranteed by kneeling in front of the ancestral tablets.
Wang Jinyi knew that some meanings could not be easily changed, so she was not angry and just said:
"Fuling, you don't have to pass on your stuff to them, but you can let them work with you. You must teach them the sketching and drawing techniques I taught you, and you now have an additional identity.
I bought a house in the west of the city and built a training school. You will be teaching in that school in the future, specializing in cartography and drawing.
I've called you back this time because of another more urgent matter.
Wang Jinyi said to Chunfen and Xiayu at the door:
"One of you goes to the study to find Mo Yu and get the design drawings of the plug-in toys I designed, and the other one goes to the backyard and gets the plug-in toy samples made by Groups 1 and 2."
The two maids bowed and went out.
Qiushi, who was outside the door, walked in and stood inside waiting for the lady's instructions.
When Wang Jinyi saw that the four maids had come with her today, she gave an order:
"Qiushi, ask Dongyue to go to the snack room and get some snacks and hot tea."
After giving the order, he looked at Wang Jinlai. In the six years since he went to Qiannan, he had grown from a lively teenager into a strong young man!
Yes, he is 20 years old this year. Due to long-distance travel, he is a little tanned, but he looks very capable and his eyes are bright.
Seeing the young lady looking at him, Wang Jinlai quickly stood up and called out:
"Miss."
Wang Jinlai, like Fuling, quickly searched for the account books in his bag. When he took out all the account books, there were more than ten of them. Wang Jinyi waved his hand:
"I've handed over the management of Taisheng Rice Shop in Qiannan to you. You should report your work to Wang Luanhe, and you should go to Qingyu's finance department for reconciliation. As for the irregular inspections between different prefectures, this will not change under my command."
"Miss, I understand that it was you who gave me this opportunity to manage the twelve stores in Qiannan. I will not let you down."
Wang Jinyi nodded with a smile and asked:
"I want to know what you two have been doing outside for so long. Do you have any requests in life?"
Neither of them seemed to understand what the young lady meant.
Wang Jinyi simply explained what he meant and asked:
"Wang Jinlai, are you 20 this year?"
Wang Jinlai nodded in confusion and answered:
"Yes, Miss. I just turned 20 this year."
"Do you have someone you like? Do you want to start a family? If you have this idea, just tell me directly. I will send someone to investigate. If the other party is okay, I will help you. I will subsidize the cost of starting a family. After all, men should get married when they are old enough and women should get married when they are old enough!"
Wang Jinlai and Fuling blushed at what their 9-year-old master said and lowered their heads deeply. Wang Jinlai hurriedly squeaked and uttered incoherent sentences: "No, I didn't, I didn't think about these things. I didn't have time to think about these things during these years in Qiannan..."
Wang Jinyi asked Fuling again: "How old are you this year?"
"Miss, I am 22 years old this year."
"Do you have someone you like?"
Fuling lowered her head and shook it silently.
Wang Jinyi knew that in this era, a girl over 18 was considered an old maid, and if she was still unmarried at the age of 22, she was basically a Saint Seiya in her previous life.
If she wants to get married again, she can only be a mistress or a step-wife.
For some reason, Wang Jinyi suddenly thought of Wen Bai. Yes! How old is Wen Bai this year? I forgot to ask.
Wang Luanhe is not young anymore. The people who have been with him for six years have reached the age of marriage. Although he is still a child, they have grown up. It is time to consider their personal problems.
Wang Jinyi felt that it was not easy for her. In terms of status, she was a child, but also a master. She had to think of everything in advance. However, if she had to arrange everything for them to start a family, she might lose her reputation. She could only think of asking others for help. Who should she ask? …
For a moment, the three people in the room lowered their heads, each thinking about their own thoughts.
The first one to come back was Chunfen, who handed a roll of design drawings to the young lady.
Wang Jinyi unfolded the drawing, which was two renderings of wild geese and birds that he had sketched. He casually pushed the drawing to Fuling who was sitting on his right.
Fuling can now fully understand the three-dimensional pencil drawings drawn by the young lady.
Fuling asked curiously:
"Miss, why do you draw so many bars and numbers?
"Don't worry, you'll understand soon."
This time it was Dongyue who came back, bringing snacks from the snack room and a pot of hot tea.
Wang Jinyi gestured with her hand, and Dongyue placed the snacks between the two of them and poured each of them a cup of hot tea.
Fuling and Wang Jinlai were both very surprised, and finally stood up and bowed respectfully to the young lady.
"Please sit down. You must have had a hard time on the journey. You must have not eaten yet. Have some snacks first to fill your stomach. Dinner will be available soon."
Before Wang Jinyi finished speaking, Xia Yu came back with two boxes.
Wang Jinyi gestured for her to put the box in the middle of the table.
"Fuling, open these two boxes, and then you will understand what the drawings I drew are."
Fuling and Wang Jinlai opened the two boxes respectively. The first one contained a colorful bird made of a bunch of plug-in wooden blocks, and the second one contained a wooden goose. There were many grids painted on the goose, with various numbers marked on them.
Seeing Fuling's puzzled expression, Wang Jinyi gave some advice, "You can take it out and compare it with the blueprint. Look at the wild goose first and you will understand what this little bird is."
Wang Jin came to help Fuling carefully take out the wild goose from the box. Fuling held the colorful wild goose and quickly understood it by referring to the drawing.
This is a model made according to the drawing, or it is called a sample.
Fuling took out the toy bird from another box, and she immediately understood that the picture the young lady drew was about dividing the bird into small wooden blocks, which could be put together to form a complete bird or wild goose!
Fuling held the bird with both surprise and curiosity.
To their surprise, the young lady came over and took the bird in Fuling's hand and tore it into pieces. Finally, it became a pile of wooden pieces of different sizes, spread out in the box.
Whether it was Wang Jinlai or Fuling, including the little maid in the room, they all widened their eyes in surprise and watched this miraculous scene happen.
Soon something even more surprising happened to them.
According to her memory, Wang Jinyi quickly pieced together the broken pieces of wood in less than a cup of tea, restoring it to the original bird.
