The soap here acts as a writing agent! When soap comes into contact with ink, it can react with some impurities to produce precipitation, which makes the ink contain more carbon and therefore brighter!
Briefly introduce ink:
1, although the ink is easy to use, it is roughly fixed (the ink factory has already adjusted it when producing ink). When we write, the ink is too thick to open the pen and it is easy to lag; If the ink is too weak, the ink will be covered as soon as the pen is placed on the paper. In short, if the shade is not appropriate, it will affect writing. Therefore, if the ink is thick, it is necessary to add water. If it is thin, it is necessary to rely on ink to study and make the ink thick and thin, so as to write good words.
Don't pour the ink with water back. Many calligraphers will take out some ink and add water according to the style of their works, but it should be noted that the added ink should never be poured into the bottle again, otherwise the ink in the bottle will deteriorate. Many people may have this experience. The ink left by writing a few days ago was found to be smelly when it was used again a few days later. Especially in hot summer, ink mixed with water is more likely to stink. This is because the ink has gone bad.
3. After the work is written, it should be left to dry for 24 hours, so that the ink can be fixed and the ink can be avoided when mounting.
4. Many people like the effect of Su Mo when writing calligraphy. Su Mo is actually very simple to make: first, cook a German pavilion until it becomes sticky, and sometimes the bottom of the basin becomes sticky. It doesn't matter, this is the first step, because it destroys the ingredients in a German pavilion. Then let the ink dry, and then soak it after drying. It is better to use it more often.
When writing, dip in water first, then dip in ink, and there will be layers of ink. With Su Mo with particles, the words written are very textured. If there is too little ink when you make it, don't add any more ink.
