Wang Lemei stayed with Master Xiao Huo for a while, then told Master Xiao Huo what Tang Xiaoyu and Liu Meilan had said.

Xiao Huo was slightly stunned, "Can it still be operated this way?"

Wang Lemei nodded, put on gloves and took out a painting. On it was the name of their workshop during the Wanli period, before they became imperial merchants - "Da Fu".

"We named it based on the history of our Huo family ancestors! Now we want to promote Dafu Jewelry, why not?"

"Originally, Meilan said she wanted to make a modern fashion drama. After hearing about Huojia's history, she said it could be a series. The Huo family would be used as the prototype, and the specific plot would be rewritten."

Xiao Huo thought about it and said, "Let's talk to Dad about this!"

Old Huo stared at the basket of vegetables and walked unsteadily from outside. Hearing his son and daughter-in-law talking in the house, he was embarrassed to go in and sat down on a rocking chair under a tree in the yard.

Xiao Huo came out of the room and told his father about Wang Lemei, Tang Xiaoyu and Liu Meilan's plan.

When Master Huo heard this, he was surprised and asked, "Can you really film the story of our Huo family?"

Xiao Huo nodded, "Of course! Even if we can't write it, we can pay someone to write it!"

Master Huo quickly took the vegetables to the refrigerator in the kitchen, then ran to his room and brought out a box. "Take the things I gave you earlier, and let's go find Meilan and Xiaoyu!"

Wang Lemei was very happy to see her father-in-law's support. "Dad, I think if we film the stories of our ancestors, it will not only publicize the origin of our Dafu Jewelry, but also let more people know about our Huojia heritage."

Master Huo nodded repeatedly, "Yes! If I can really make Dafu Jewelry a success and make it famous, I will have dignity even if I die in the future and meet my ancestors."

Hearing her father-in-law say this, Wang Lemei stepped forward to take the box from him and quickly persuaded him: "Dad, you are in good health and will live a long life! You have superb craftsmanship and will teach your grandchildren in the future! With you here, Xiao Huo will be responsible for design, and I will be responsible for management and promotion. We will definitely be able to do a good job with Dafu Jewelry!"

Xiao Huo carried another box and followed them to Liu Meilan and Tang Xiaoyu's home.

At this time, Grandpa Liu and Grandpa Wang were playing chess. They were very curious when they saw Master Huo bringing over so many things.

Seeing the well-preserved but yellowed documents inside, Mr. Liu was astonished. "Xiao Huo, I knew your family had a connection before, but I didn't expect there were such complete records! This is not only your family history, but also very valuable historical data!"

Just as Grandpa Liu was about to pick it up, Liu Meilan stopped him, "Grandpa, don't do it. I'll get you a pair of gloves! You said this is a valuable historical document, and it's an original. If you pick it up, sweat stains might fall on it and it would damage the original."

"Yes, yes, yes." Mr. Liu nodded repeatedly, "I was just too anxious just now and forgot about this! Xiufang, bring a few more pairs of gloves!"

Xu Chongyang put down his pencil and stood up, "Grandpa, I'll get it!"

His attention was not on his homework just now, he had already pricked up his ears to eavesdrop.

Soon Xu Chongyang brought out a few pairs of gloves and distributed them to everyone, and he also came over to watch.

But he didn't do anything, just watched.

Although Xu Chongyang is young, he has become particularly fond of historical materials since Grandpa Liu often told him historical stories, historical figures, classic battles, and military experiences.

In Zhang Xiufang's words, Xu Chongyang would take a closer look at any scrap of paper he picked up from the ground, as long as it had words on it. He would also hold a book while squatting on the toilet.

Fortunately, it did not affect my grades, otherwise I would have been punished by Zhang Xiufang.

Zhang Xiufang quickly took the teacups and teapots off the stone table to prevent the documents from getting wet.

Doctor Wang had been studying cultural classics since he was a child, so he had no problem reading these texts. The more he read, the more surprised he became.

"Xiao Huo, is this really passed down from your family?"

Master Huo nodded repeatedly, "Really! These have been passed down from generation to generation, and there are still 4 boxes at home. My father lived in hiding on this island to protect these things. I heard that many people wanted to steal these things at that time!"

The first record was from the fourth year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty, and it recorded many things. The ancestor of the Huo family was obviously a very rigorous person. If he heard it from others, he would mark it; if it was confirmed, he would not specifically explain it.

These valuable documentary materials not only reflect the local customs and practices of the time, but also the jewelry making records recorded on them reflect the extremely high level of craftsmanship at that time.

Later, dynasties changed and although all the big and small events were mentioned briefly, the situation at the time was recorded truthfully.

Doctor Wang was very excited. "If my old friend the historian saw this, he would faint with joy!"

Liu Meilan was also very shocked, and she wished she had 800 episodes of the plot in her mind. "Le Mei, these materials are very valuable! They are very useful for cultural research. Maybe we can also write novels or scripts based on these materials. So I suggest you copy all of these materials."

"Now there is a kind of scanner that can scan all these things and convert them into pictures. If you still feel unsafe, you can take pictures of these materials and save them."

"You can keep the originals yourselves. After all, this is passed down from the ancestors of the Huo family. It is your family's precious wealth! I think you can make copies of the other materials and rent a venue in my second brother's private museum for public viewing so that more people can know about it."

Tang Xiaoyu added: "It is recorded that jewelry, hair crowns, and portraits were made for Li Shimin's wife, Empress Zhangsun, and some nobles and celebrities... If Master Huo can restore this hair crown with the Huo family's skills and put it in the museum, people will have a more intuitive understanding."

Master Huo was very excited. "Before he died, my father held my hand and told me to pass on the Huo family's craftsmanship and bring honor to the family! Whether it was because of the policy or other reasons, I didn't do it."

"Now I have a good daughter-in-law, a good son, and with the help of so many of you, I can not only pass on the Huo family's technology, but also carry it forward, which can be regarded as fulfilling my father's last words."

Master Xiao Huo nodded and said, "I think Xiaoyu's suggestion is very good!"

"I'll take care of this!" Wang Lemei agreed and rented an exhibition hall, which could be used as the Huo family's exhibition hall.

Then the family of three took these things home and asked the workers to carry the copier from the factory to their home, and they copied them one by one without the help of anyone else.
