Youthful Splendid Edge

Chapter 64 Replication Technology

"Peacock feather down? Huh?"

The down of peacock feathers, this is a problem that Ye Fanghua has never thought of before. These extremely small down are hidden in the peacock feathers. It wasn't that Zhang Liang rubbed it down by mistake, Ye Fanghua would not have thought of this peacock feather down.

Ye Fanghua sat down and carefully plucked the down from each of the few peacock feathers one by one.

A pile of peacock feather down was quickly piled up on the table. Ye Fanghua piled it up with both hands. After thinking about it, he felt that it was not suitable, and then spread it away with both hands. pile up.

Such tiny down is indeed softer than feathers, but it may not be so easy to make these down, which is more delicate than hair, into silk threads.

But one thing Ye Fanghua can be sure of is that the down on the peacock feather is more suitable for making silk thread than any other part of the feather. The dragon robe material of those emperors in ancient times.

"What's wrong, what method is needed to make this down into silk thread?"

Ye Fanghua, who was playing with the peacock's feathers and down, frowned and thought about it.

Zhang Liang's natural way, Ye Fanghua is completely immersed in his work now, and Ye Fanghua can't receive any interference at this time, so Zhang Liang walked to the side lightly, found a place to sit quietly He got down and looked at Ye Fanghua with a silly smile.

At this moment, Ye Fanghua, who was thinking quietly, accidentally saw the green floral thread in the basket on the side, and suddenly came to inspiration. He quickly put the peacock feather down in his hand into a box, and then took it to the workbench on the other side, and started Experiment up.

It is said to be a test bench, but it is actually just a sewing machine. The sewing machine is already a backward tool now, but it was a high-tech product at that time, and ordinary families could not afford high-end luxury goods.

I don't know how long it took, but the down of the peacock's feathers has been scientifically processed and hand-twisted with green floral threads to form weft threads, which have a fluffy, thick texture and a shiny effect.The tuanlong scales woven with peacock feathers, from all angles, emit blue-green flashes, which are unpredictable.

"It's done, it's done, I finally made it!"

Although it is only a small scale on the dragon robe, its significance is very important. After all, most of the dragon patterns on the dragon robe are colored by scales, so the inconspicuous scales are indeed the key to this work. top priority.

Zhang Liang, who was silent at the side, heard Ye Fanghua's cheers, and ran over quickly. Seeing Ye Fanghua holding a small scale-like fabric in his hand, he became very excited. After all, this work has already delayed too much time. ,too many people.

The success at this moment will indicate another major breakthrough and progress in the handicraft technology of the motherland, and the most important thing is that my daughter-in-law has also solved the knot in the heart of repairing the dragon robe.

At this time, Ye Fanghua, who was recalling the glory of the past, was suddenly awakened by the reporter's question: "I can't see that there is such a story in it, Teacher Ye, according to what you said, restore this dragon from the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. Pao, your husband’s contribution is indispensable, so I want to ask, do you regret it?”

"No regrets, I have never regretted it, because I don't regret it, so he won't regret it either." Ye Fanghua replied very sonorously: "Maybe you don't understand, but the relationship between my husband Zhang Liang and I has been inseparable so far. Let me remain infinitely grateful to him, I can achieve what I am today, a large part of the credit is because he is by my side without complaint or regret, and he helps me and supports me regardless of any reward."

While speaking, Ye Fanghua looked back at Zhang Liang behind him. Although Zhang Liang already had gray hair, when he saw Ye Fanghua turning his head, he still kept his silly smile, as if encouraging Ye Fanghua to continue talking. go down.

When the reporter asked how to restore the dragon robe, Ye Fanghua suddenly fell into the memories of the past.

The scales have been made, and Ye Fanghua let go of the strings in his heart. He went home with Zhang Liang to rest for a night, and devoted himself to the work of repairing the dragon robe the next day.

In the research institute, Liu Yan and some key members learned of Ye Fanghua's research results during a meeting. They all had smiles on their faces and devoted themselves to the rest of the work with great enthusiasm.

Due to the lack of peacock feathers, Ye Fanghua immediately contacted the BJ Zoo through the organization, and shipped batches of new peacock feathers to the research institute of SZ. Many craftsmen are closely watching the work of this great revival of handicraft technology in Chinese history.

After a while, under the leadership of Ye Fanghua, the SZ Embroidery Research Institute finally succeeded in making this rare silk dragon robe of the Ming Dynasty.The dragon robe is woven with 279 swastika patterns, 256 longevity characters, 301 bats and 217 wishful patterns, implying longevity, blessings and all the best.

Although it is a copy, the organization did not dare to be sloppy at all. Immediately sent people to the SZ Embroidery Research Institute to investigate and verify. After being appraised by experts from BJ's Museum, the Institute of Archeology of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and other units, it was finally considered to be a copy. The appearance of the dragon robe is completely consistent with the original of the Ming Dynasty. The most important thing is that the gold weaving and peacock feather emerald effects on the reproduced dragon robe are very realistic.

This outstanding scientific research achievement in the history of Kesi craft weaving has opened up a way for the motherland's handicraft technology to restore ancient precious silk fabrics, and accumulated valuable experience for the reproduction of cultural relics. In the Hundred Flowers Awards competition, this dragon robe replica won the Gold Cup Award.

However, being able to copy a dragon robe does not mean that the real cultural relic dragon robe can be repaired. Although the style is the same, as a somewhat damaged cultural relic, to achieve a complete restoration, it must reach an exacting level .

The difficulty lies in what technique to use, what style of needle and thread to use, where to start, how many needles, how many threads, the depth of color, etc., are like insurmountable problems that must be overcome one by one.
