Ji's house is quite spacious, and Ji's father set aside a special room, roughly dividing the space into two parts, one side for each of the two sons, where all the carpentry work is done, so as not to be messy, As for the wooden house on the mountain, Ji Mo is so small, it's not easy to go where often, so he just doesn't care.

They moved things early, and after confirming these things, Mrs. Cao recovered from the sad news that her two daughters-in-law had evacuated their homes. When she thought that there was still a house on the mountain, she went to have a look. It was empty. No, she just thought it was Cao Mu who had figured it out, turned around and took her daughter to the gate of the village chief to cry.

This farce lasted for several days. The people in the neighboring villages had seen enough of the excitement. Ji Dalang would pay attention occasionally, for fear that someone would find out that they had emptied the house in the mountain. As a result, the daughter of the Cao family got married, and Mrs. Cao followed. , the matter was completely over, and the Ji family was relieved.

Ji Mo was a little disappointed, does this mean that Cao Mu really won't come back?

[Current task: professional knowledge learning - (56/100)]

"Then, the rest is up to you."

Ji Mo was a little disappointed, but quickly adjusted his mentality. On this road, it is unrealistic to expect anyone to accompany him for a long time. It is up to himself to learn knowledge. The company of others cannot increase knowledge points. A master The existence of , it will be easy to improve the knowledge points in the early stage, but in the later stage, the professor also has a limit.

"—Let's start now."

Ji Mo was still young, and he used to go out because he wanted to go to Cao Mu. Without Cao Mu, he would have no reason to go out. Instead, he would be able to stay at home. Every day when he woke up, opened his eyes, and ate, he would just go out. Drilled into the carpentry room, did not come out until lunch again, and concentrated on making pianos.

Because of his concentration, Ji's mother didn't allow Ji Dalang to disturb him in the room. Gradually, before Ji Mo found out, the carpentry room became his world alone. Occasionally, Ji Dalang would stand by the door and watch. , I only look at it when I get Ji Mo's permission. Although I don't quite understand the purpose of each step between those procedures, I can feel the ignorance, even Master Cen. Less than the kind of focus and seriousness that makes people feel awe.

"Sanlang will definitely be better than Master Cen in the future!" Ji Dalang said to Father Ji in private.

Ji's father also has eyes to see, and he also felt the same way after seeing it, not to mention anything else, if the youngest son is so smart and focused, if he can't achieve something, it is the injustice of heaven.

"Such an older person is just as tall as that Qin, just like that..."

Mother Ji's eyes were full of love and pity. She didn't know what her youngest son was doing before, and she couldn't see such a scene. Now that she thinks about it, it's not easy to learn something from the master.

For a moment, he thought of Cao Mu: "I used to look like an honest leader, but now I know that this person is not honest, and I don't know how he treats Saburo."

A heart worried about what happened once again, what Ji's mother can do is to make some delicious food to supplement the youngest son.

As the wedding day is approaching, Ji Dalang has no time to be jealous of these things, he goes back and forth to buy things, even a new cabinet, he personally made one and put it in the prepared wedding room.

On the day of the wedding, Ji's house was extremely lively. Ji Mo was dressed up and put on the new bed as a child sitting on the bed. When the bride came, he, the little uncle, was lucky enough to stay in the new house for a while. , put his little brother-in-law into the arms of his sister-in-law, let the bride hug him, so that he can have a son soon, and made Ji Mo so embarrassed, he ran out after watching Kong Kong.

He is still young, and he still lives with his parents, and his parents can't avoid him when they talk at night. Listening to Ji's mother and Ji's father's emotion, recalling the sweetness of the past, turning over and continuing to sleep, husband and wife, what a trouble!

After seeing the bride offering tea the next day, Ji Mo called out "Sister-in-law", turned around and went to work in the carpentry workshop.

The sister-in-law was a little hesitant: "Does Sanlang not like me?"

There is no sister-in-law in the family, so there is no conflict between sister-in-law, but if the uncle doesn't like it, it seems a bit embarrassing.

"You think too much, you'll know in a few days, he's concentrating now."

It's a kind of concentration that blends into it, and everyone can't notice it, so that others will be infected by it. Although they don't understand it, they can feel the importance of this matter to him, or how much he values ​​it. The whole family agreed not to disturb him.

Ji Dalang married his daughter-in-law, and he was proud of the spring breeze, and he didn't want to do carpentry. The room was given to Ji Mo. When the bride understood the meaning, there was nothing to say. Whoever lives in a non-problem-free family will feel uncomfortable ah!

Ji Mo’s first piano was made in winter, and Cao Mu’s attention to detail was due to the coldness of the mountains, but at home, Ji Mo didn’t pay attention to those feudal superstitions. Pause to warm your hands on the stove, or rub your hands, although it is done slowly, it does not delay at all.

He had trouble tuning the sound. He really couldn’t be sure that the Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, and Yu he heard were the correct pentameters, let alone the sounds of civil and military. He even asked everyone in his family to listen to them. Listen, but the family doesn't have any literary talent, so I really can't tell.

"There is a piano seller in the town, otherwise, why don't you go there and listen to it, and then come back to tune it?"

Ji Dalang gave an idea.

Ji Mo thought about it, but it's okay: "I'll take the piano and tune it on the spot. They should agree to it, right?"

Ji Dalang couldn't say for sure, looked at Ji's father, and Ji's father made a decision: "Tomorrow I will take Sanlang with me."

Early the next morning, Ji Mo packed the piano and followed Father Ji to the town. Father Ji was afraid that he would not be able to go far, so he simply drove the car.

There was only one piano seller in the town. Father Ji took Ji Mo in, and the shopkeeper saw it. In fact, neither of them looked like a piano buyer, nor did they look like the servants of those rich families.

Father Ji has seen a little bit of the world, and he is not at all shy when dealing with people. He went up to communicate with the shopkeeper, and when he explained his intentions, the shopkeeper laughed: "I can't see it, you can make pianos at a young age. !"

There are very few famous qins here, and many of them are commissioned by individuals to sell. He is also familiar with the nearby qin sellers. He doesn't know that there is a family named Ji, and he doesn't know which family's apprentice it is.

With a bit of scrutiny in his eyes, the shopkeeper smiled kindly, and pointed to the table beside him, motioning for Ji Mo to show off his piano.

Along the way, Ji Mo held the piano by himself. After a year, he grew a bit taller than the piano, only half a head taller. Put it right, and open the muslin wrapped outside to reveal the piano inside. Whether it is luster or shape, the shopkeeper will be serious about it. This is really no joke, it looks really good.

"Master left early. Although I have taught you how to tune the tune, I am not sure about it. I would like to ask you to teach me whether the tune is accurate."

As Ji Mo said, he plucked the strings. He had never been exposed to this before. He had learned from Cao Mu for so long, and he was also learning how to make a qin. The way he plucked the strings was just to imitate cats and tigers. , and can still play a half-piece of music, Ji Mo is not very good.

"You really made this yourself?" The shopkeeper looked at the piano and then at Ji Mo, his eyes were amazed. Without him, Ji Mo was too young.

At the age of seven or eight, can you make pianos?Who taught this?It's really amazing.

The apprentices of the violin makers known to the shopkeeper, the earliest ones started to make violins when they were eleven or twelve years old. They are so young, and they can't grasp the strength of their hands well. How can they be able to make violins?

Seven or eight years of drying time in the shade for the best catalpa trees cannot be wasted.

Some families, after accepting their disciples, let them practice the knee qin at the beginning, which is short and saves materials. The most important thing is that they can use those discarded materials to process again. In this way, it takes at least one or two years of practice to get started. Really good wood.

The shopkeeper looked at the piano again and again, and tried the sound test, and pointed out that the two notes were not accurate, so Ji Mo adjusted it on the spot.

Seeing Ji Mo's skillful technique, he believed that the Qin was made by the other party.

"It's amazing, it's amazing, may I ask which master taught it?"

The shopkeeper suddenly became curious and asked.

"Master won't let me talk." Ji Mo jumped ahead of Father Ji and blocked Father Ji's words. It has been almost a year since Cao Mu left. If there is any word here, it is not sure what will happen.

Father Ji originally wanted to show off, but when he heard Ji Mo's words, he thought of the possible consequences of showing off, so he stopped talking, nodded slightly reservedly, and said modestly: "His level is still far behind, you Take a look and give advice.”

Just like Father Cao when he was alive, those who have anything to do with the art of a gentleman, even those who do this kind of business, have a somewhat refined heart, and the shopkeeper is no exception. Father Ji's words are fair, but the meaning of respect It is quite useful, and the shopkeeper also has a heart of love for talents. Seeing that Ji Mo can make this kind of violin at a young age, it is also admiration, and it may also mean that he has made friends with future violin makers in advance , I really said something right now.

The knowledge point jumped up a little, and Ji Mo listened more attentively.

A studious attitude can influence people. Seeing that what he said was being listened to carefully, the shopkeeper stroked his beard and smiled complacently: "Your friend, do you want to transfer this piano to others?"

Father Ji is used to doing business. Although he has never been in the business of selling pianos before, he also knows the meaning of this sentence. He just asked if it is for sale, so he immediately asked: "The shopkeeper, how much is this worth?"

The question was too plain, the shopkeeper frowned, but still gave a sincere price, and said: "This is my first piano, a novice's work. Although the shape and sound are not inferior to everyone, it still can't be promoted. Get a high price."

He said this tactfully, but Ji Mo understood a little bit that there are entry barriers for any business, it doesn't mean that whoever makes the piano will be confiscated, it is equivalent to some kind of monopoly, it is easy for insiders to sell things, and the circle No matter how good things are for outsiders, there's nothing you can do if you don't want them inside.

The shopkeeper's lower price is the rebate for him to pass this threshold.
