I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

Back home, Wu Changqing did not see Chen Yuyan.

"Where's Madam?" Wu Changqing asked.

"Madam and Miss Dong are chatting and painting in the backyard," the maid replied.

When Wu Changqing was busy outside, Chen Yuyan usually stayed at home to embroider something, or paint and write.

Entertainment in this era is very scarce, and women like Chen Yuyan are not very convenient to go out, and they are even more boring in ordinary times. The only entertainment is probably chatting and gossip with other girls.

Fortunately, women in this era are relatively easy to satisfy, and if it is a woman of later generations, such a boring life will long ago lose her temper.

"Miss Dong, which Miss Dong?" Wu Changqing asked.

"Dong Bai, Dong Xiaowan, one of Qinhuai's eight Yans." The maid was a little puzzled, and her master didn't even know Dong Xiaowan, one of Qinhuai's Eight Yans.

Qin Huai Bayan, Dong Xiaowan.

Wu Changqing was a little impressed, but not particularly familiar. He is relatively familiar with only Chen Yuanyuan and Liu Rushi, and he doesn't know if the others are not famous enough.

He only knew that this Dong Xiaowan finally married Mao Xiang as a concubine, and then died earlier.

Originally, Wu Changqing didn't take it to heart, but out of curiosity, he went to the backyard anyway.

After all, it is not easy to be a person who can live up to Chen Yuan's name.

The famous prostitutes of this era are actually similar to the female stars of later generations. They made their debut by virtue of their good looks and body, and with a little talent, they became rare goods.

A prostitute is different from a prostitute. A prostitute is a prostitute, not a prostitute, but a prostitute.

Therefore, the famous prostitutes of this era will not be looked down upon, and they are even idols in the hearts of some women, just like the female stars of later generations.

If you marry an ordinary person, you can definitely become a full-fledged wife and be praised by her husband.

But if you want to marry a powerful person, you have to be a concubine and become a plaything.

In this regard, it seems that it is very similar to female stars.

When he came to the backyard, Wu Changqing saw seven or eight young women, talking and laughing.

The appearance of Wu Changqing surprised these people a little.

After all, under normal circumstances, it is not suitable for men to join in the fun at the gatherings of female relatives. Of course, it's not a big problem to go.

The defense of men and women is mainly aimed at lonely men and widows, and now there is no need to worry about gossip in the presence of such a large number of people.

"I have seen the grandfather of the country."

The crowd saluted.

"Don't be restrained, you guys continue to play, I'm just taking a look."

Wu Changqing said.

Everyone raised their heads when they heard the words, and the courageous people also looked at Wu Changqing.

"Xiang Gong, you don't know these sisters yet. This is Miss Dong Xiaowan, one of the famous Qin Huai Bayans in the world. This is Governor Qian's fourth young lady, Qian Ruyu..."

Chen Yuyan introduced the identities of these people to Wu Changqing. They were all wealthy people, either stars, officials, or daughters of wealthy businessmen.

Only these people are qualified to come to Wu Guogong's mansion and make friends with Chen Yuyan.

These people came here not just to accompany Chen Yuyan to relieve the boredom, but more to make friends with Chen Yuyan, so that Chen Yuyan could help to blow the pillow wind in Wu Changqing's ear and help his man find a good job.

"Mrs. Chen teased, what Qin Huai's Bayan is, it's already a cloud of the past."

Dong Xiaowan sighed with emotion that the former Qin Huai Bayan was not very good now.

Chen Yuanyuan was taken captive to the north, changed hands several times, and finally became the concubine of Wu Sangui, the second minister. Liu Rushi's husband, Qian Qianyi, also surrendered to the Manchu Qing, and he fell into infamy, and was also jealous of the Manchu Qing. When Li Xiangjun fell to Nanjing, his whereabouts were unknown...

And she herself is now living in seclusion in Suzhou with Maoxiang. Maoxiang was afflicted with illness, and his family was not as good as before.

"Wu Guogong came just in time. Come and give us a review to see who's painting is better."

Qian Ruyu dared to make a suggestion.

"I don't have much research into drawing."

Wu Changqing said.

"It doesn't matter, just say what you feel."

Another woman yelled.

Wu Changqing's identity is special, and they all want to have more contact with Wu Changqing, especially for those women who are not married yet.

For them, being a concubine to Wu Changqing is also a very good choice.

Therefore, they also want to show themselves in front of Wu Changqing.

Surrounded by a group of beautiful young women, this feeling is quite good.

Wu Changqing is not a workaholic, he enjoys this kind of life adjustment.

So, he no longer refused, picked up the paintings and looked at them.

He is not an expert in painting, but he still has basic aesthetics, and he is even able to paint simply. It's just that in this era, his painting skills are really out of hand, so he doesn't say that he can paint.

"This cold water map is good."

Wu Changqing said.

"Where is it?"

Qian Ruyu asked.

"I don't know either, you let me say it based on my feelings." Wu Changqing complained, he just felt that this cold water picture was a bit more artistic, and asking him to tell what was good about this painting would be embarrassing for him.

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard the words. They found that the Governor-General was not as serious as other officials, and was very approachable.

This is mainly because Wu Changqing is a later generation, and he always carries a little shadow of the later generations. In the process of getting along with people, he does not have such a strong class distinction.

"What about this one?"

Qian Ruyu pointed to another figure painting, which was a picture of a woman enjoying plum.

"It's pretty good too."

Wu Changqing said.

"What about this one?"

She pointed to another one, which was also a woman.

This one can clearly see that the level is not as high as the previous two.

"This one is more general."

Wu Changqing was telling the truth, and he didn't need to lie and compliment anyone.

As soon as he said this, several women couldn't help laughing, and then Wu Changqing found that Chen Yuyan's face was very depressed.

Wu Changqing understood in an instant that he was tricked by Qian Ruyu. This painting is not very good, and it is clearly the work of his wife.

In order to avoid Chen Yuyan, Wu Changqing changed his words: "I say this painting is generally because it is still an unfinished work, and it needs a few more strokes to highlight its essence."

Having said that, Wu Changqing picked up the pen and began to perform secondary processing on the painting.

Although he is not good at painting, he is very knowledgeable and knows how to use the shadow part to make the picture full of three-dimensionality. And this kind of three-dimensional painting has not appeared in this era.

When everyone saw him writing, they were all puzzled. After all, Wu Changqing said before that he couldn't draw.

Moreover, Chen Yuyan's painting is clearly a finished product, and they don't know what Wu Changqing wants to do with the addition of brushes.

Soon, they will know.

Wu Changqing didn't spend much time, just added some shadows to the portrait, so that the people on the portrait looked like they were about to walk out of the drawing paper, and the whole person looked lifelike.

People who have never seen a three-dimensional painting will inevitably be surprised when they see this kind of painting for the first time. Only after they understand the principle will they realize that this painting is actually nothing special.

"My God, this portrait is alive."

Qian Ruyu exclaimed.

Even Dong Xiaowan couldn't help but sighed when he saw it: "Emperor Wu is really smart and brave. With these few finishing touches alone, it is comparable to the famous masters in the world."

"Smiled."

Wu Changqing laughed, and occasionally showing off his knowledge in front of the ancients, that feeling is also quite refreshing.
