Chapter 387 387: Li Li Yuan’s original score [seek double monthly tickets]
Unlike the autumn reds and greens, there is no other color to enjoy except wintersweet in the cold winter month.
When Wu Xian came, he saw Mrs. Mi Fang smiling under the eaves from afar. The peonies on her temples were beautiful and beautiful, making her look more beautiful than flowers. He was curious about where there were peonies at this time, but when he took a closer look, he realized that this peony was not that peony.
Mrs. Mi Bang saw him curious.
He smiled and said, "It was my wife who rewarded her today."
Wu Xianqi is so strange: "You said madam?"
Where did the lady get it?
After asking, I remembered that yesterday''s note came back from He Yin and said that I had brought some gifts from there to give to the female family in the backyard. I also reported this to him. When asked what it was, Xu Jie only said it was a "flower", but Wu Xian didn''t care much.
Now, it looks so exquisite.
The wind at the door is strong, and it is not the place to speak.
"Father!" The sleepy son got up when he heard the movement, kicked his calf and trotted, almost throwing himself into his arms.
Wu Xian was serious about his two legitimate sons and often treated them with high demands, but he was not so strict with his young concubine sons, so he was pampered with them. Life is only a few years without restraint, and I can carry my son to my lap and sit down.
"Have you finished teaching today?"
"I''ve finished learning, will my father teach me how to take the exam?" The son replied in a slight voice, with a little nervous and nervous look on his face.
Wu Xian smiled and said, "Okay, come and test you."
It is said that it is a test, but in fact it is just a few questions, and you can pass it easily - after all, you are still young and you can''t tell what your qualifications are. Naturally, Wu Xian''s requirements for him will not be too high.
The room was cold, and Mrs. Mi Bang asked her maid to add a charcoal basin.
Wu Xian said with emotion: "Wenzhu told me before that every household in Heyin has a dirt kang, and it is possible to keep warm without burning charcoal. Although this charcoal fire can keep warm, it cannot be used by ordinary people, and it is extremely difficult to bear every winter."
Mrs. Mi Bang is good at observing her expressions.
Seeing Wu Xian stand up, he smiled and asked according to the other party''s wishes: "Although I don''t know what this earthen kang is, since it can keep warm, I will definitely burn something. Can the common people afford it?"
Wu Xian took the warm water she handed over and took a sip, saying, "It''s all good to say hay, straw and even animal manure."
"That earthen kang is not easy to make?"
Wu Xian shook his head: "It''s very simple to hear."
Mrs. Mi Bang asked, "Why don''t you follow me?"
Wu Xian didn''t say anything.
It’s not that he is not moved, nor is it that he is kind-hearted and can’t pull the sheep Shen Tang, but he catches a crop of leeks and a lamb all year round, and his old face is a little slapped.
The outside world really thinks that the two of them are "Tangdi''s deep love"...
No matter how thick-skinned you are, you cannot just take advantage of others.
The most important thing is—
He has to think about how to open this mouth!
He didn''t say that, but Mrs. Mi Bang subtly understood his thoughts-he only needed a step now.
"I am not like a wise man. I don''t know a few words and don''t understand those great principles. However, when I was young, I couldn''t afford to burn charcoal. I suffered from cold and hunger and sores in my hands and feet. I can''t forget it... If this earthen kang could make poor people not afraid of wind and snow, I don''t know how many innocent creatures could be saved... Mr. Shen has always been kind again. If he knew that a wise man was dedicated to the people, how could he not respond?"
The skill of stealing someone’s kang is definitely not good.
But you can "buy".
Either buy someone to build a "patent" for building a kang, or hire craftsmen who are good at this to build a kang and give people money.
With the "brotherly relationship" between Wu Xian and Shen Tang, the two sides discussed it carefully and could still get the friendship price.
Wu Xian said: "This is very true."
He slapped his thigh and decided to send a letter to Shen Tang, using the grounds that "My concubine Mi Bang had frostbite and could not bear the cold, but the charcoal fire choked her and her health was not easy." He took a step to hire a craftsman to build a kang with Shen Tang.
Best, you can buy this craft.
The craftsmen have few people, and no matter how skilled they are, they need time. The efficiency is too slow. It is better to let your own people learn and promote it on a large scale. Wu Xian sat down and thought about it again, intending to sell the earthen kang to Shangnan and Yiru and pull down the two families.
Three companies will share the "patent fees" together!
Wu Xian’s abacus in his heart was crackling.
He already had an idea in his mind, and Yu Guang was attracted by the peony between his wife Mi Bang''s hair. After asking, I found out that Xu Jie sent more than a dozen velvet flowers, and the concubines in the backyard were divided into two or three, most of which were wintersweet and black tea, and only two peonies.
Although the current level is not as strict as before, Mrs. Mi Bang’s identity is not allowed to wear peonies, and even the patterns of clothes are not allowed. Mrs. Zheng gave her one, saying that she was delicate in color and looked good in wear.
"What''s wrong with this flower?"
"It''s not wrong, it really highlights your skin color. Wearing and playing in your own yard, if you go out, you''ll still have some hairpins, so as not to get out of the conversation." Wu Xian tilted his seat relaxedly, and changed the topic with a smile, "Brother Shen is also interesting, these gadgets are so proficient... But this is a path after all, and it''s better to recruit more troops than to have this energy... The current situation is still stable, but I heard that all the places were tortured by the group of refugees and bandits... Isn''t this Shen attracted people to worry about?"
Shen Tang has a good reputation.
Shen Tang loves to make money.
It’s still led the people to make money.
The purpose of reclaiming deserted fields is to allow the common people to have enough food, the purpose of raising pigs is to give the common people an extra income, and the purpose of building houses and kangs is to allow the common people to have a comfortable nest to shelter from the wind and rain without the cold. Even in the slack farming season, what kind of velvet flowers are to make more money by governing the common people...
As long as it is not for the purpose of accumulating wealth, recruiting troops and strengthening itself, it is a good thing for Wu Xian.
After all, he has a neighbor who is sharpening his knife all day long, and he is excited and jumping up and down, and he is not at ease in sleep. A good little brother cannot be stronger than him, nor can he be more noisy than him. It''s just right now.
He was very happy to see Chen Tang devote himself to the common people.
Mrs. Mi Bang was puzzled: "Why is it a path?"
Wu Xian changed to a more comfortable sitting posture: "It is not a good thing for a child to have a daughter in the downtown area. If Brother Chen was born in a prosperous era of peace in the world, he would have been a parent official who was loved and supported by the common people everywhere, but it was the current world. No matter how much money and food the common people were in their hands, they would meet the desperate people who forced their homes into the household, they would end up losing money and money... In this way, the refugees in the past were too many to survive and rob others of the money and food..."
Wu Xian sneered and said quietly: "…Robbery is much faster than a little planning."
When Mrs. Mi Bang heard this, she subconsciously brewed a sentence in her heart that made her sweat when she remembered it - could the wise man rob people? Fortunately, she rolled her words twice on the tip of her tongue, and she secretly swallowed them back to her stomach.
Wu Xian didn''t notice Mrs. Mi Bang''s strange expression, and could roughly guess what she was thinking.
"Then, what I said - Mr. Shen didn''t even have the troops to deal with the outlaws?" Mrs. Mi Bang patted her sleepless young son, looking confused.
"It is natural to deal with ordinary outlaws." Wu Xian was worried that the fat boy would press on Mrs. Mi Bang, so he helped her carry the child aside and continued, "But this outlaw is not fighting alone, but a thousand troops?"
"…this?"
"It''s not just Brother Chen, but Tianhai is the same. I just hate it but still weak." Wu Xian''s eyes were a little worried. I don''t know how long this peaceful life can last... Is it enough for him to live to see his children grow up and start a family and start a career?
Mrs. Mi Bang also fell silent.
Wu Xian was a big-hearted person. He quickly walked out of emo mood. He looked at the flowers on Mrs. Mi Bang''s temples and pondered for a while, and asked, "I remember in a few days, the wintersweet banquet that the wife had prepared for a long time? Are they all ready?"
Mrs. Zheng fell ill after winter.
Because she lacked energy, she took the initiative to ask Mrs. Mi Bang to help with mundane affairs in the backyard, but she still had to dowry such as buying work. Mrs. Mi Bang went to Mrs. Zheng''s yard during the day. The peony velvet flower with only two branches in her temples is probably the same as pulling over Mrs. Mi Bang while raising hatred for the other party...
The wintersweet banquet is a regular program every year.
Used to connect with each other and consolidate their relationship.
On this day, all the women in each family will go out in full dress.
Mrs. Mi Bang said, "Yes, it''s already prepared."
It was her first time in handling this matter, and she wanted to keep an eye on every link, trying not to make any mistakes, for fear of leaving anyone with a handle to criticize. She has no family background, and the only one she can rely on is her husband Wu Xian.
Only by relying on children and favor can we have a place to stand.
This is not what she wants, but the ridiculous thing is that she can only rely on these to obtain a peaceful and safe life. What''s even more ridiculous is that her current situation is beyond the pursuit of countless women struggling in the quagmire.
Wu Xian looked at her face carefully and the dazzling and exquisite peony velvet flower on her temples.
"Wear it with the wintersweet feast."
Mrs. Mi Bang''s heart skipped: "But Xianlang didn''t say before... This, this is very inappropriate..."
"It''s a reward for your favor. Why do you think Chen gave me the idea of ??sending the best velvet flowers to the backyard? Isn''t it that you can make a splendid party at which banquet you can excel and attract a group of women to follow suit? Since that''s the case, Chen''s wish is to close the market tax anyway... it''s not a loss."
Mrs. Mi Bang: “…”
She thought for a while and said, "It''s still inappropriate."
“Why is it inappropriate?”
Mrs. Mi Bang has always been smart and witty, and bit her red lips lightly: "I am glad to the wise man, and I am respectfully called "Mrs. Bang", but after all, I am a concubine. I wear peonies to attend the wintersweet banquet, what do you think about the wife of each family? What do you think when she sees this thing on my temples? It is hindered by the public and the famous places of the wise man; for private matters, this velvet flower is not only not pleasing, but also makes it dislike for all wives..."
Wu Xian was silent for a long time after hearing this, but unfortunately said, "It would be great if my wife had you a little sensible..."
Mrs. Mi Bang didn''t dare to talk to each other again.
Fortunately, Wu Xian didn''t take advantage of the topic to continue talking. He was actually quite depressed recently. His wife has been in charge of the gift for many years and has been in good order. Wu Xian loves and respects him, but only one thing makes him complain.
Mrs. Zheng had close contacts with her parents'' home, and outsiders could see that her brother had a bad intention.
First, he instigated Wu Xian''s two legitimate sons to fight each other, which made the two children even more polite to the illegitimate brothers and sisters in the family, and was closely related to the assassination of Wu Xian.
But Mrs. Zheng felt pity for the two brothers in her mother''s family and tried her best to favor them. And the brothers of my mother... were quite at peace two years ago, and recently they started to act evil again. Mrs. Zheng was bound to plead with Wu Xian around the bush.
He said that he wanted to use Lady Mi Bang to knock on Mrs. Mi Bang to suggest Mrs. Zheng, but Mrs. Mi Bang refused to cooperate.
This matter can only be given up.
Mrs. Mi Bang was cautious and advised: "The wise man and his wife had a deep affection. They are rare models in the sky and sea. The women of each family are envious. What can they say explicitly?"
Wu Xian asked back: "Which word do you know is the most dislike of being a husband?"
“Which?”
“Love is stronger than gold.”
Mrs. Mi Bang: “…”
Wu Xian turned over and sneered: "The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit. Even if a couple for many years is a stranger in front of the word "profit"..."
He didn''t blame Mrs. Zheng for not refusing to tell her parents clearly.
As a daughter of a noble family, making profits for the family is an instinct engraved in the bone marrow. Compared with husbands with many wives and concubines, brothers who are connected to them are naturally more reliable.
He patted the back of Mrs. Mi Bang''s hand lightly.
Close your eyes and said, "It''s great if you do this."
On the day of the wintersweet banquet, velvet flowers were in the limelight.
It also brought a wave of sales.
The ladies and ladies from all families rushed to ask.
Shen Tang also added many labels and advertising slogans to these velvet flowers, such as "handmade by famous artists", "carved after months", "the never-withered flowers", "the delicate colors will last forever", "the best flowers deserve the best you"...
Xu Jie: “…”
Isn’t this a fraud? ? ?
Shen Junzhen made a comment.
"This is called marketing, very knowledgeable. Besides, I really want to yell how easy it is to make these flowers, how cheap they are. Will these ladies still wear cheap flowers on their heads? The notes are still young and expensive, so they deserve their identities!"
Xu Jie: “…”
Isn’t this really treating people as a sucker?
In the end, he followed Shen Tang''s intention and reported the price as high as possible. I thought there weren''t many suckers to take the bait, but in less than a day, the list was filled with a whole scroll. Some are for wearing it themselves and some are for giving gifts, but without exception, everyone wants many styles...
Isn’t this happening faster than robbery?
Seeing that his wife was going to join in the fun, he became even more angry and said, "What do you want to bring you back..."
This kind of pit cannot be entered!
Being beaten up for nothing!
As soon as I looked at the list, I asked again: "So many?"
The lady said angrily: "Of course there are many, so you don''t look at how many relatives and female relatives in the clan... they all come to ask me to do things. Can this matter not be done? No less than one!"
Xu Jie gritted his teeth and almost had the idea of ??reselling. It’s not that I can’t afford to spend this money. The cost of velvet flowering materials is there, no matter how expensive it is, it is not as expensive as gold, silver, pearls and jade. But as a businessman, he hates losing money and spending money the most!
This is even more uncomfortable than cutting his flesh.
After the Chinese New Year, he went to Heyin to buy goods and talked about building a earthen kang on behalf of Wu Xian. Shen Tang generously sent a skilled "craftsman" and asked him to help sell bamboo paper - yes, her papermaking workshop finally produced a qualified finished product!
However, the production is limited, not enough for her to publish two ten thousand picture albums a year, and papermaking technology still needs to be improved!
Shen Tang asked Xu Jie to inquire about the market for bamboo paper, so that there would be more small money to continue research and development!
Xu Jie: “…”
Shen Jun hasn''t given up on making picture albums yet.
He also has a papermaking workshop under his name.
Every year, the supply is in short supply, so the Xu family can eat all the bamboo papers of Shen Tang, so there is no need to go out for business. Xu Jie stayed in Heyin Xiao for a few days. When the first batch of velvet flowers were gathered, he could bring the velvet flowers and the kang-building craftsmen back to the sky.
until-
Wu Xian looked at the leading kang-building craftsman and almost sprayed out a mouthful of tea. He choked for a few sips before calming down.
His expression was speechless and entangled. He looked at the man who had become so strong and dark in front of him: "Cough cough cough--I remember right, aren''t you, you, are you, the subordinate of the Dayi Account?"
The official nodded: "It''s the mark."
Wu Xian: “…”
Xu Jie lowered his head and did not dare to look at his boss''s expression.
“…Then, why did you get the kang?”
Official: “…”
This matter is hard to describe.
He swore that he had never had such a hobby a year ago, but when he couldn''t stand the work, there was always a group of familiar Heyin common people, saying "Thank you for your hard work" and "Thank you for your rest" and staring at him with admiration and appreciation.
he…
He was shameless. He lost himself in the compliments and worships. When he came to his senses, his kang building skills were superb. He could make a good earthen kang in half an hour, ensuring it was strong and durable, taking into account both appearance and heating...
The official was upset and reflected on his face.
But Shen Jun followed suit and subsidized his wages.
The compliments and worship continued to bewitch.
The official looked at the increasingly plump private warehouse and fell into some contemplation - it seemed that perhaps, perhaps, a brave warrior could support his family without relying on the battlefield?
Are you doing this good life?
