Chapter 2066: Leaving a legacy?

After personally experiencing the life and death of the elderly at home and seeing the fun the elderly had here, Liu Yuan and the others finally let go of their greed for wealth. Now they just want to see the elderly happy.

Now everyone's eyes were on them. A group of people looked at Liu Yuan. Liu Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "Everyone, we were too bastards at the beginning. We regarded the old people as a tool to make money. Now the old people have experienced it." Life and death, we finally understand that as long as the elderly at home are willing, they can stay here as long as they want."

Liu Yuan's words surprised everyone, and then there was a burst of applause. These applauses were all given to Liu Yuan and others. Although they had done outrageous things in those years, fortunately they corrected their mistakes when they knew they were wrong. It is the greatest affirmation that people give them.

Hongshiya Workshop has hired sixteen new iron craftsmen, which has caused a sensation around the world. You must know that the SkyOcean Group mechanical bird accident a few years ago was due to problems with their craftsmen, which triggered a series of disaster.

There are now sixteen newly promoted craftsmen, plus Liu Xiangyang, who was promoted previously, there are seventeen iron craftsmen alone. With so many craftsmen, no matter what they do, they can cause a sensation.

The next day, groups of young people entered Hongshiya. In their words, they wanted to learn iron art from their masters. More families with traditional iron art also I am contacting Jiang Fei and want to let his family's disciples enter Hongshi Cliff to study.

Regarding these, according to Jiang Fei and the others, there is now a Chinese Medicine University and a Culinary Arts School in Hongshiya, and the Culinary Arts School has gathered top chefs and professors from nine major cuisines.

There are young people in the village who love iron and wood arts at the workshop, and other traditional crafts have also developed in recent years. Taking advantage of the hot spots of people like Liu Xiangyang, the Dijun Group can indeed open a school dedicated to inheriting traditional crafts. More people will come to learn. While traditional craftsmanship is being passed on, Hongshiya will also increase its popularity to a certain extent, making Hongshiya a gathering place for schools in the northern region.

Zhao Xinyu was certainly excited about Jiang Fei's proposal. Pingcheng was an important border town at the time, one of the nine ancient capitals, and it should also have cultural heritage. However, before he came back, there was only one Pingcheng University in Pingcheng, and now there is It was only at the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine that Pingcheng's teachings were truly known to people in other areas.

Although traditional crafts cannot be said to be higher education, truly learning traditional crafts can pass on thousands of years of traditional crafts and let more people understand the profound traditional crafts. This is a good thing for any place.

But Zhao Xinyu also has his concerns. He can open a university of traditional Chinese medicine and a chef school because he has a group of people behind him to support him.

Traditional craftsmanship is different. Traditional craftsmanship is passed down from master to master. He can pass it on to He Yuzhu and Liu Gang and let them flourish. But as for old artists like Liu Xiangyang, only they themselves know whether they are willing to pass it on. Guidance and passing on skills are two different things. a different concept.

In his heart, Zhao Xinyu also hoped that the young people in the village who had great interest in traditional iron arts could become apprentices to those old men even though he did not ask questions. However, it was just his inner thoughts. If he participated, the old men would not say anything. , but he didn't want to get involved with these things.

It is precisely because of these concerns that Zhao Xinyu has no idea of ​​​​building a school. He wants to let the elderly choose for themselves, and only they can choose. They will have greater enthusiasm for inheritance, just like Liu Yuan and others. He insisted on taking a group of elderly people back, but the result was that they were silenced for more than a year. Zhao Xinyu did not want to see such a thing happen again.

Zhao Xinyu can think about others and consider the feelings of the elderly, but others will not think like Zhao Xinyu. While people are crazy about pursuing him, the family

A well-funded organization has set its sights on these old people who are new craftsmen. They once again approached the family members of Liu Yuan and wanted to use generous rewards to bring these old people who have a special hobby for traditional crafts. Walk.

It was also an experience that allowed Liu Yuan and the others to truly understand the thoughts of their fathers. This time they directly handed over the initiative to the elderly at home and let them make their own choices. What they do is support the elderly in other ways.

Regarding these, Zhao Xinyu cannot interfere, and the old people know very well that they can be promoted and what role Zhao Xinyu plays in it. They have rejected high-value contracts. In their words, what they like is unrestrained If you have a contract in your life, it is like adding shackles.

After the elders refused, the national department finally took action. They awarded the elders intangible cultural inheritors. The country gave special care to each of them and provided certain help to their descendants.

On this day, Zhao Xinyu posted some knives on the official website of the Dijun Group. These knives were hand-made by a group of respectable old people for the herdsmen in the Lop Nur pastoral area.

Although it is forged by hand, each handle looks like it was cast on an assembly line. The most important thing is that these knives are as sharp as cutting iron. .

It used to be regarded as a magic weapon that can cut iron like clay. Now a group of old people have created a batch of such sharp blades, which has caused countless people to speculate. They even say that Zhao Xinyu is making money through the old people.

However, Zhao Xinyu didn't say anything, but the herders in the pastoral area spoke for Zhao Xinyu. They thanked the craftsmen like Liu Xiangyang for creating a batch of treasures that could be passed down to future generations.

In Hongshiya's workshop, in a large house filled with metal blocks, Liu Xiangyang and a group of new craftsmen looked at Zhao Xinyu, their eyes full of surprise.

"Xinyu, you said that your iron art has a lot to do with the Jiuli people."

Zhao Xinyu nodded, "Mr. Liu, the reason why I can improve my iron skills largely comes from the Jiuli tribe. Although we are both forgers, their forging has never cut off the inheritance. Now they are contacting me and want to Send a group of young people to come to our place to learn blacksmithing, I’m not just here to see what you’re up to.”

Liu Xiangyang looked at a relatively thin old man and said, "Tie Wuming, tell me where your ancestors lived."

Tie Wuming took a deep breath, "Xinyu is right. Every nation's forging has its own characteristics. When it comes to small things, the Jiuli people's forging is unparalleled. Under normal circumstances, their forging skills will not be spread to other people. Xinyu is kind to the Jiuli people, and they are willing to send people over to communicate with us. I think this is an opportunity for both parties to get what they need and let the true iron art be passed down."

"That being said, are they willing to show off their skills?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Zhao Xinyu, who took a deep breath, "The Jiuli people have preserved complete traditional crafts, but they are also deeply impacted by modern technology. They don't want the inheritance to be cut off. They also want to Let more people pass on their inheritance to..."

A group of people nodded, "Xinyu, we understand, let them come over. We have also studied it during this period, but Liu Gang and Yuzhu have said many things about the current Internet. Our group is the last inheritance of traditional crafts." "They are right. If we want to pass on traditional crafts better, we can only build schools so that more children can be exposed to traditional crafts."

Zhao Xinyu was slightly startled, and he couldn't help but stir up a wave of emotion in his heart. Of course he knew that spreading branches and leaves was the greatest inheritance of traditional craftsmanship. Now that the old people took the initiative to propose it, of course he was excited.

"Mr. Liu, you guys

The meaning of success is to establish a school that can be passed down..."

"Only by building a school can we find true inheritors. Traditional crafts have been excluded these years. Now we finally have such an opportunity. We really can't miss it anymore, but Xinyu still relies on your help for this."

Zhao Xinyu nodded and called a group of people out of the big house. He pointed at the buildings that occupied a village and a large part of which were not yet in operation. "Then let's choose here. It is far away from residential areas. Now our children have already I can basically teach, but I have a condition.”

"What conditions."

"When we recruit students, we can't let them neglect their studies. They must take care of their studies. Artists without creativity can't go further."

Liu Xiangyang laughed, "We don't understand this. We just teach them how to make iron."

"Okay, I will go back and ask Jiang Fei to apply for the qualification to run a school. In addition, I will plan and design this place carefully and build several large workshops. We will also be busy here and work together to create a few products that can be taken out. , so as to attract those children.”

Zhao Xinyu's influence, coupled with the current support of the country, it only took three days for the Emperor Group to make an announcement. The Emperor Group joined forces‏‏​​‎‏‎‏​​​​‎​‏‏ Seventeen craftsmen, the Emperor Group will next build a traditional craft university within the Hongshiya area. The recruited students must be excellent in both character and academics. They must take into account their studies while inheriting traditional crafts.

The news spread and the whole world was in an uproar. Traditional crafts were popular in the past era, but in the current era, traditional crafts have no room for development. It was also in the past few years that Zhao Xinyu promoted traditional crafts, and traditional crafts gradually became known to people.

Now Zhao Xinyu has established a school, and admission to the traditional craft college is free. The students recruited must also take into account the cultural courses of the existing school. This has attracted the attention of countless people.

You must know that since Zhao Xinyu emerged in Xihanling, the first thing he promoted was school education, which has also led to the current Xihanling Middle School and Hongshiya Middle School to become the top middle schools in the country.

It is precisely because of this that many people do not think of inheriting traditional crafts. They are interested in the cultural education of the school. As soon as the news spread, people in many regions asked about the admission conditions.

Zhao Xinyu and Liu Xiangyang looked at the crazy applicants and were dumbfounded. They really didn't expect people to be so crazy.

"so many people."

Zhao Xinyu took a deep breath and shook his head, "Mr. Liu, the schools under the group have been recognized by people in recent years. What they value is the school's cultural education, so you must discuss with other traditional artists when choosing students. We try to select students with special skills.”

Liu Xiangyang and others nodded, "Okay, we'll be busy for a while."

"Mr. Liu, what I said again is that what we need are inheritors, so character is the first priority. We don't need those young masters and ladies who can't even take care of themselves, no matter how good their conditions are, we don't need them."

"What about you? You think people are much better than us."

Zhao Xinyu hurriedly waved his hand, "I have to find a teacher for the school. Tradition is important, and this cultural class is even more important. If we can't succeed in the cultural class, the school will be finished next year. By the way, let everyone know that the school will be closed these days. We need to carry out reconstruction, suspend their studies, and let them do what they can. You should also prepare. We have to do our work. I think since we want to build momentum, we should cast it publicly."

"do what."

Zhao Xinyu took a deep breath and said, "What we want to do is to build a project that will be handed down from generation to generation. Yuzhu has the drawings of the Forbidden City in his hands, so we will build a metal Forbidden City according to the drawings of the Forbidden City."
