Chapter 332

While explaining, Tong Annian continued to observe the changes in the sand and feathers, and she pulled out the feathers only after the sand had completely cooled down.

Using a pair of sharp scissors, cut off a short section of the quill at an angle of less than 45 degrees to serve as a nib, similar to the nib of a fountain pen.

After the nib is sharpened, a small hole is carved in the middle of the nib to ensure that the ink stays in the nib smoothly.

In order to make it easier to grasp, Tong Annian asked Banxia to find some bamboos with the thickness of a brush. Tong Annian picked the right one, and carefully sharpened it with a knife. Tong Anqi was afraid that she would hurt his hand, so he took the knife and bamboo from her hand. The bamboo started to be peeled as Tong Annian said.

After the bamboo was cut into the shape Tong Anian needed and polished smooth, Tong Anian took over, inserted the prepared feathers into the bamboo, and then handed it to Tong Anqi.

"This is the quill you mentioned?" Tong Anqi held the quill and looked at Tong Annian in confusion.

"That's right, this is a quill pen, big brother, try it, and see if you can write comfortably." Tong Annian smiled happily, but she didn't expect it, it's the first time I made it, and it was the first one that was so perfect .

Tong Annian was happy, but Tong Anqi who was holding a quill pen was a little at a loss. This pen was completely different from the brushes they used, and he really didn't know how to use it.

"Nian Bao'er, how do I use this?" Jin Yi saw Tong Anqi's distress and opened his mouth to help him.

Only then did Tong Annian remember that Tong Anqi and the others had never seen this kind of pen, so naturally they would not know how to use it.

Tong Annian smiled embarrassedly, took the quill pen in Tong Anqi's hand, walked to the desk, paused with the pen tip in the finely ground ink, and then lightly wrote a few words on the paper.

Looking at the small and thin characters, several people were very surprised and tried one after another, but after all, they were not as used to pens as Tong Anian, so the characters they wrote were either crooked or because they used too much strength. The general punctured the paper.

Even Jin Yi, who has always done everything perfectly, stumbled on this quill, and his ears turned red from embarrassment.

"Little sister, this is too difficult to write. It's not as easy to use as a brush. Can I not use it?" Tong Anle looked up at Tong Anian pitifully. The others were also very wronged, and their thoughts were the same as Tong Anle's.

When I saw Tong Annian using it, it was really easy to use, the writing was smooth, and it was very labor-saving, but why was it completely different when it came to them?
"This is not how to hold a pen. If you want to hold a pen like this, you should not use too much strength, otherwise, the quill will be damaged. Moreover, the quill is different from the brush. You don't need to hold it. You only need a small amount of strength. It is easy to write. You won't feel tired for a long time."

Tong Annian carefully taught them how to use the quill pen one by one, and at the same time, started to make other quill pens.

The first quill was successful, and the others are naturally easy, and you don't need to think about anything, and you can get started.

"Because it's made of goose feathers, so is it called a quill pen?" Jin Yi wrote for a while, and after getting started, he handed the quill pen to Tong Anqi. To be honest, he also felt that the quill pen was really easy. The main thing is that quill pens are cheap and easy to make.

"Yes, you can also use other feathers, such as swans, crows, and eagles, all are fine, but there are not many feathers that can be used on them, and I can't catch others. The most practical It's goose feathers." Tong Annian continued to work while laughing.

Jin Yi looked at Tong Anqi who was writing, and at the quill pen in his hand. Tong Annian's thoughts were really good. The quill tube was hard, so it was much more convenient and faster to write. Great.
