Back at General Lin's Mansion, Lin Yi hurriedly finished his dinner.
She was going to drive out the drawing tonight and send it to Ye Ziming early in the morning while she didn't have to go to the clinic tomorrow.
The drawings you draw by yourself are much better than the calligraphy done with a brush!
Although I am still not used to using a brush, drawing and writing are fundamentally different.
Handwriting is difficult to change, but painting relies on artistry.
Lin Yi concentrated on gesturing the length, hummed and practiced on a pile of paper, and finally drew the scalpel, hemostatic forceps and syringe she wanted. Satisfied, she spread it out to dry, blew out the candle and went to sleep.
Early the next morning, Lin Yi picked up the drawings and walked happily to the door after breakfast. Thinking that Lin Xuan'er was still under confinement, she said hello to Butler Liu and took the carriage out of the house.
The boy who drove the carriage was Lin Xuan'er's usual man. He looked at the concubine and the second young lady with an unhappy look on her face.
It's so disrespectful!
However, Lin Yi was too lazy to argue with him. He ordered to go to the first floor, got into the carriage and stopped talking.
The boy rode quickly and whipped his horse, completely ignoring Lin Yi in the car.
Lin Yi, who was shaken by the jolt, was speechless. Fortunately, she didn't get motion sick, but this kind of rushing was clearly something she couldn't get through.
Should he be given a blow?
Ye Ziming, who was inspecting the first floor of the sky, heard the sound of rushing carriages on the street. Unexpectedly, the sound suddenly stopped at his door.
Who is it so early?
He curiously walked towards the gate, and saw Lin Yi staggering out of the carriage with a look of helplessness on his face.
Ye Ziming was slightly startled. Which young lady would jump out of the car herself? Even if she didn't use pedals, she would usually be supported by a maid or the driver.
He glanced at the driver in front of the carriage with a arrogant look on his face, completely ignoring Lin Yi.
That's too much!
Seeing Zi Ming standing at the door, Lin Yi calmed down and ran over happily. The boy who drove the car would talk about it later. He didn't expect to see Zi Ming so smoothly. He was still worried that this guy was not around Tianyi. Where should I go to find him?
I worked so hard to finish the drawings last night!
"Good morning, Mr. Ye, I brought the drawings today. How do you like them?"
Lin Yi took out a stack of drawings and handed them to him with a proud look on his face.
Zi Ming calmed down and took the drawing and opened it. It was very different from what she wrote. The drawing was more detailed than the craftsman's, but he had never seen the things on the drawing.
"Miss Lin Er, what is this cylindrical thing with a needle? This weird-looking thing is a knife? What is this scissors-like thing?"
Ye Ziming was eye-opening, he never thought that something in this shape could be made.
Lin Yi pointed to the drawing of the syringe and said: "The tip is a needle, and the middle must be hollowed out. You see, here, and the size must be the same as the drawing. In addition, these things must be made of steel, and iron cannot be used. This is a scalpel. The requirements for steel are strict and must be repeatedly forged more than ten times. As for this—"
Seeing Ye Ziming's frown, Lin Yi paused and said, "Why don't you lay it out on the table and I'll tell you slowly."
When the young man next to the carriage saw Lin Yi preparing to walk into the building, he immediately shouted loudly: "Second young lady, I don't have that much time to accompany you. If the first young lady asks me to drive the carriage, it will be terrible if I don't see anyone. "
There are always some people in this world who don't have the discernment to see whose territory this is.
Standing in front of the door of the largest tool shop in the capital is the owner of this building, Ye Ziming.
Lin Yi looked at Zi Ming awkwardly, thinking that this boy really didn't know how to show appreciation.
"Haha...I...go over and give the order..."
As soon as she turned around, Ye Ziming grabbed her sleeve. Lin Yi turned around and saw him shaking his head with a smile, and then walked straight towards the boy.
"Go back and tell Mrs. Shen that my guests, Ye Ziming, will not ride in this shabby carriage. Let the Lin family provide a good car."
The boy was just about to think of words to ridicule which young master dared to speak like this, when he met Ye Ziming's stern eyes, and he was suddenly startled.
There was murderous intent in his eyes.
The boy's hand holding the reins softened, and the reins slipped onto his legs.
After a while, Zi Ming quickly waved his hand, and the slipped reins swished past the boy's eyes.
It was like a gust of knife wind passing through his face.
The boy was so frightened that he couldn't help but touch his cheek.
It hurts! But luckily there was no bleeding.
This man has great martial arts skills!
He didn't dare to say anything, so he suddenly whipped his horsewhip and drove away from Tianyilou without raising his head.
Lin Yi opened his mouth wide. Zi Ming didn't take the people of the Lin family seriously at all, and actually called Shen Ruzhi directly. And I don’t know what happened just now, but the boy drove away as if he had seen a ghost. She looked suspicious, who was this Ye Ziming?
"Lord Ye...who are you?"
Ye Ziming narrowed his eyes, and immediately showed a gentle look on his face when he turned around.
Nominally, he is the landlord of Tianyi Building. But behind the scenes, he controls the production of the sharpest swords in the dynasty, and the royal family respects him. And Lin Weifu's weapons were provided by him.
Lin Mansion is really not in his eyes.
"I'm just a tool maker. Look at me making knives, guns, and tools. If you offend me, all the knives in the kitchen will be gone, but you won't starve to death."
Seeing the serious way he spoke, Lin Yi couldn't laugh or cry. It would be strange to believe him. She suddenly remembered the carriage that Ye Ziming sent Qin Shuihan to yesterday, which seemed to have a lot to do with Qin Shuihan.
"Then what is the relationship between Lord Ye and King Han?"
Ye Ziming looked at her with a half-smile.
"So concerned about King Han? Then what is the relationship between Miss Lin and King Han?"
This mysterious sound!
When Lin Yi thought of Ye Wan, whom she regarded as a classical goddess, her eyes could not help but shine, and she was simply salivating.
"Master Ye, what do you mean? I'm just a little minion of King Han. I just work for him to save lives and heal the wounded. I can tell you that there is a stunning beauty Miss Ye Wan beside King Han. Those two are a match made in heaven." .”
Ye Ziming looked at her with a complicated expression.
Lin Yi was slightly startled, what kind of expression is this!
But when he thinks of Qin Shuihan, he is his protective umbrella. He cannot let others covet Qin Shuihan's woman.
"Miss Ye is as beautiful as a fairy, and she and King Han cherish each other's hearts. A gentleman will not take away others' love, so don't have any wild ideas!"
"..."
Lin Yi rolled her eyes at Zi Ming and walked into the first floor of the sky swaggeringly. She spread the drawings on the table and carefully described the size and the things that needed to be paid attention to when making them.
Ye Ziming was stunned for a while. How did Miss Lin Er come up with these tools? Why do you know everything about the making of steel? Generally, after repeated forging two to three times, the impurities will be reduced a lot.
However, she opened her mouth ten times!
What a complicated project!
"Where has Miss Lin Er seen these tools?"
Lin Yi's thoughts drifted to distant places. They were everywhere in hospitals and laboratories. When she was lazy and didn't want to sterilize, she would use replaceable blades. Even the hemostatic forceps come in several sizes. Every time I use it, I put it neatly in my experiment cabinet.
But here, there is nothing.
"I saw it in...an ancient book..."
She didn't want to continue this topic. Although she had been in ancient times for more than a month, she still felt unreal.
She calmed down and asked: "Master Ye, how much silver is needed to build these things?"
"Built for Miss Lin Er, naturally it costs no money."
Ye Ziming smiled brightly and spoke sincerely.
This Ye Ziming is really generous. Lin Yi thinks he can be a good buddy, but he is not someone who likes to take advantage.
"Master Ye is so cheerful, so I won't be polite to you. But in this case, you are not allowed to be polite to me. As long as you are someone whom Master Ye knows, you are not allowed to negotiate with me for medical treatment. What do you say?"
Ye Ziming looked embarrassed.
"The consultation fee is a consultation fee. How does this relate to building tools?"
Lin Yi frowned. This Ye Ziming was really unhappy. On second thought, she lowered her voice and imitated the man's voice.
"Then, Lord Ye asked me how dare I ask you to build tools next time?"
She returned the words Ye Ziming said to her intact.
Seeing the proud look on her face, Ye Ziming couldn't help laughing. This Miss Lin Er was really different from other boudoir ladies, very interesting.
Moreover, it’s really hard not to be tempted…
"I can't help you. Although it's still early today, I have to go to the tool shop, so I'll take you back home first."
As the youngest head of the Tianyi Building, Ye Ziming is not a young master who relies on his father's protection to protect him and does nothing all day long. Instead, he is thoughtful and does many things himself.
When she heard that it was a tool workshop, Lin Yi immediately became interested. It was still early anyway, so she asked expectantly: "But the place where tools are made? Can you take me to see it?"
This tool shop is a place where iron and steel are made. Women are usually not mentioned, and men are not willing to go there. Not to mention the high heat around the furnace, the ashes are flying, and if you get even close, you will be disgraced.
Does she really want to go?
At this time, Lin Yi's big eyes flashed with little stars twinkling in them.
Ye Ziming couldn't help but be fascinated, this woman was really special, but he immediately realized that he was rude and quickly shook his head with a smile.
Forget it, take her with you.
The tool shop on the first floor of Tianyi is located in Lingyun Valley in the north of the city, which is rich in hematite, the best ore for making iron.
The ancestors of the Ye family made a living by blacksmithing and lived here for generations.
Later, with the mass production of weapons, the royal family was quite afraid, and the valley was bloodbathed a hundred years ago.
That was the period of Ye Ziming's great-grandfather.
The remaining Ye family members forged the sharpest weapons and rose up to resist.
The emperors of Qin and Han, who were in power at that time, faced wars on the border, and the Ye family openly resisted the imperial court. They could not continue to be in a state of internal and external enemies. They finally reached a truce agreement with the Ye family and were willing to promote officials and titles to the Ye family's children.
However, the Ye family disdains official positions and they still live in Lingyun Valley. However, in order to prevent the court from going back on its word, Lingyun Valley is now heavily organised, and outsiders are not allowed to easily enter the valley.
When it came to Ye Ziming's generation, he expanded his thinking and was not limited to making weapons, but also took into account the development of household tools.
In other words, if it weren't for Ye Ziming's innovation, Lin Yi would still have nowhere to build the tools she wanted.
Although Ye Ziming believed that Lin Yi was not a bad person, he could not break the rules and take her into the forging base in the valley.
He led Lin Yi to the furnace where household tools were forged, and ordered a servant to follow her to keep her safe, while he quickly rushed to the council chamber to handle official duties.
Lin Yi had never seen such a large iron-making furnace. She originally thought that she was a modern person and had seen countless high-tech products. Although she did not know how to make steel and iron, she had seen it in TV dramas. She estimated that this ancient forging should be Just a few big men knocking.
But the scene before me was a slap in the face.
Lin Yi didn't know that this era already had advanced steel filling methods.
She walked around excitedly, curiously stepping forward to take a look at the ashes delivered by the workers.
The young man following behind was dumbfounded, not understanding what the eldest lady brought by the Valley Master was doing.
When Ziming finished his business and saw Lin Yi again, he already couldn't recognize her.
The ocher-colored skirt was covered with mottled gray stains, and the cuffs and skirt seemed to be embroidered with black edges, but they were even.
Her hair was no longer black, but a little gray, and there was a touch of heavy color on her face. I guess she accidentally rubbed her face with dirty hands.
Seeing Ye Ziming, Lin Yi ran up to him dancing and said gushingly: "Master Ye, you are so awesome. It turns out that iron tools are made like this. My scalpel must be sharp after being forged ten times in this way. Extremely——”
"Miss Lin Er, leave the building to me. In half a month, I will build the items you want."
Ye Ziming interrupted her without any explanation, and shook his head helplessly when he looked at her like this.
"I'll take you to change first."
Lin Yi lowered his head and looked at his dress. He was fumbling around excitedly just now, not knowing that he was covered in dust.
"Haha... Then there will be Mr. Lao Ye..."
