Tongtong was very interested in models like this and enjoyed delving into things that could develop her abilities.
Especially with models that required self-assembly, they were indeed quite good in terms of appearance.
Just like the grand exterior of the shop, the price was quite steep.
Tongtong knew that her father's financial capacity was more than enough, but there was no need to spend so much on an assembled model.
But it didn't matter, Liu Yifeng bought it directly and gave it to Tongtong when they got home, thinking Tongtong would definitely ponder over it for a while. He didn't overthink Tongtong's world.
A child's eyes could not be deceived. Even if they were exceptionally intelligent, their liking for gifts was evident.
Liu Yifeng picked up the model and said:
"Tongtong, what do you think? Do you like this model? Dad bought it as your fourth birthday gift."
Tongtong was still young, but she had a very good grasp of what she liked. This kind of thing was good in terms of appearance, performance, and other aspects, but the price was a bit outrageous.
Tongtong thought for a moment and said:
"Two hundred thousand, Dad. Spending two hundred thousand on a model doesn't feel very worthwhile, even though it looks so grand and magnificent."
"But I've already discovered some shortcomings. In my heart, it's not that perfect anymore, so it's perfectly fine if we don't get it."
Tongtong was very clever and saw the model's flaws at a glance. Although it was made to be nearly perfect, there were still minor flaws in the details.
Every time Tongtong said something like this, Liu Yifeng was always drawn in by his son's words.
Rather than buying toys to please him, he preferred his son to learn something from it:
"Oh, then tell me what flaws you found. If they can be improved, wouldn't that be even better?"
The father and son stood in front of the model, facing this seemingly perfect and magnificent model. The exterior was indeed impeccable and very impressive.
Liu Yifeng's expectations for his son were never limited to the title of prodigy.
Tongtong was a child so extraordinary that the term prodigy couldn't even describe her. She blinked her eyes and said:
"This model in front of us is already assembled. Although it's assembled perfectly, Dad, look, there are always some flaws on the exterior. This indicates that the parts inside were not made precisely enough."
"But ordinary people wouldn't notice this. The material used to make the model is quite good, but there are obvious scratches on it."
This kind of observation was naturally meticulous and beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Liu Yifeng's interest was piqued by Tongtong's words, but he really couldn't see it:
"However, it's already very good to be able to achieve this. Nothing in the world is perfect. There are obvious scratches on it, but this is also a case of avoiding the important and focusing on the trivial. If it weren't for this, there would be other flaws, and it wouldn't be possible to achieve ultimate perfection."
Liu Yifeng marveled at his son's miraculous nature again, but he understood his son.
He could also see that Tongtong was still very curious about this model:
"Ultimate perfection is rare, but being able to achieve this much perfection is already very good. Dad has decided to give this model to you as a birthday gift, but there's also a small task for you."
Giving gifts was a natural thing. They would often give various gifts even when it wasn't a birthday, but this time, giving a small gift with a task attached made him a little curious.
"Tell me, Dad."
Tongtong looked up at Liu Yifeng, wondering what kind of small task it was, and she already had some idea in her mind.
Liu Yifeng smiled and handed the model to Tongtong, saying:
"You clearly pointed out the flaws of this model to Dad just now, but Dad believes that besides this point, there must be other flaws. Dad has decided to buy this and give it to you as a birthday gift!"
"Your task is to find all these flaws and then modify it to make it even more perfect."
Liu Yifeng's idea was very good. It not only helped develop the child's intelligence but also bought a birthday gift that the child was satisfied with. It was a win-win situation.
Perhaps this was the joy of children. Some children found joy in eating, drinking, and playing, but such small tasks were Tongtong's joy.
Tongtong said happily:
"Okay, Dad, you should have said so earlier. I'm very willing to do this."
This model was indeed very good and was quite outstanding in the entire exhibition hall. Liu Yifeng's discerning eye had indeed spotted a masterpiece at first glance.
Having bought such a good model, Tongtong naturally wanted to show it to her grandfather first.
Liu Chunsheng had always doted on his grandson. Liu Yifeng buying a model for his child was understandable and acceptable to Liu Chunsheng, and he fully supported it. It was indeed a wise choice to develop the child's abilities.
Tongtong took good care of the model. The model wasn't large, but its size was comparable to the small Tongtong.
Grandpa was not at home at the moment, but Tongtong couldn't wait to share this joy with him. Liu Yifeng knew that Tongtong liked things like this, so he directly arranged this surprise as soon as they got home. His birthday was just a few days away, so giving it a few days earlier was fine.
After a few minutes, Liu Chunsheng returned from his walk. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Tongtong happily admiring her gift. Liu Chunsheng was also very satisfied with this gift.
Seeing Tongtong's happy face made Grandpa even happier. Liu Chunsheng was also pondering what kind of decent birthday gift to buy for his grandson.
He didn't understand these things very well and had to ask about Tongtong's preferences:
"Tongtong, as long as you're happy. This model looks very good, not like ordinary models."
Although Liu Chunsheng didn't understand these things, he could still distinguish good from bad when comparing such an exquisite model with others.
Tongtong took Liu Chunsheng's hand and said:
"Grandpa, let's go inside and I'll introduce it to you properly. This model is so interesting, of course, it's different from ordinary ones."
Tongtong held the model in one hand and Grandpa's hand in the other, and they went inside to share their joy.
Tongtong was very enthusiastic about such things and enjoyed pondering over them. Fortunately, Liu Chunsheng was also willing to play with his grandson.
Liu Yifeng had his own matters to attend to. On one hand, there was the matter of the vegetable greenhouses, and on the other, the construction of the villa. Although everything had been arranged, he couldn't completely let go.
He planned to start construction in the next two days. The sooner it started, the sooner it would be completed, and the family could move in sooner.
Just as he was about to attend to the villa matters, new trouble came over the phone:
"Yifeng, hurry up and come to the greenhouses to see. Something has happened! It's very bad!"
The fruit farmers on the other end of the phone were in a panic. It seemed that something big had happened, and they couldn't handle it.
