Resin Lac
"Tiangong Kaiwu" is an important book on ancient technology and craftsmanship. Based on the relevant craftsmanship, I created the following classical Chinese around "Resin Lac" as the core and direction:

There are strange things in the world, called Resin Lac, its quality is unique and its functions are quite wide. At first, it was collected in the deep mountains and dense forests, and all kinds of trees hid their sources. The craftsman can only pick it when he observes the state of the tree and waits.
After picking it, put it in a purifier and refine it with the ancient method. Burn the fire, control its temperature, slowly boil and fry, during which the water vapor gradually dissipates, and the impurities also go away, and finally get the essence. Its color may be as bright and moist as amber, or as deep as red jade, which is appealing to the eye and smooth to the touch.
This Resin Lac, when used in utensils, can protect its surface, so that it does not rot over time and is difficult to be invaded by wind and rain. When applied to wood, the texture becomes more obvious, and the luster is self-generating, like a natural decoration; when applied to metal, it can prevent rust and last for a long time, like adding the brilliance of time. And its bonding power is also strong. All kinds of different materials, through its adhesion, are very stable and can be used to help structures.
Furthermore, in the way of painting art, Resin Lac is also very useful. Painters use it to adjust colors, and the colors are bright and lasting. They are painted on silk and paper. They have passed down through thousands of years without fading. The masterpieces have been handed down, and the style remains the same, which amazes the viewer.
The craftsmen of ancient times have painstakingly studied this way, poor their construction methods, and passed it on to future generations. Future generations should follow their aspirations and make good use of Resin Lac to make ancient art a new light and benefit all generations.
