While the kite paint dried, Sheng Xia took a bamboo rod and a spool of kite line from her toolbox. She fastened the spool to one end of the rod, bored a small hole in the other, threaded the line through, and tied it to a small butterfly kite.
Just like that, a handheld fishing-rod kite was finished.
Sheng Xia lifted the finished kite. A light breeze was blowing at that moment, and the little butterfly kite caught the wind and took flight. Even without releasing any extra line, the kite flew just by holding the rod.
