Little girls are worthless, and five taels of silver will buy out their lives, and they may even be their descendants, if they have always been slaves. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
But if they really feel sorry for their daughters, they won't sell them at all, for their parents, compared to drowning at birth, being able to grit their teeth and raise them for a few years is already the obligation of their father (mother) and daughter, so they let them live this life, as for the money from selling their daughters, shouldn't they have repaid them for this childbirth and parenting?
The children are not strong enough, although these children are used to doing things at home, but the younger brother bought them back because he couldn't bear it, so how could he take them for inappropriate use? Naturally, he was looking for those easier jobs for them that did not require much effort.
Speaking of which, there is still a lot of work.
After the scale of the farm is large, Chunye and Aunt Wang need to add people, feed rabbits, pick up eggs, and run around the mountains is originally a child's nature, and it is also good to do things with it.
In addition to these, making Songhua eggs is also a matter of people, and after reconciling the needed plaster, let the older children wrap them one by one and put them in the tank, which is all within their ability.
Zhao Di is here, but he is discussing things with his younger brother.
Nowadays, the most clothes are linen, followed by cheesecloth, and then worsted muslin, as for silk, silk, yarn, brocade, and satin, they are all worn by rich and noble families.
When Zhao Di first taught his brother to crochet knitted sweaters, he used twine, but this twine was astringent.
This thread is rubbed out, when the younger brother comes to Zhao Di to ask about the finished product, Zhao Di himself will not knit a sweater, but she will have some small things, when the classmates in college popular knitting scarves not to say, when I was a child, I followed my grandmother, the housewife at that time, who added a child will send a set of their own small clothes.
These small clothes are clothes and pants and a pair of woolen shoes are considered a set, so Zhao Di's grandmother is playing mahjong and is preparing to play these things, and Zhao Di was caught as a child laborer and beat the child's shoes.
said that it was shoes, in fact, it was similar to socks, and thanks to these, Zhao Di learned to collect the minute hand, and after Zhao Di also taught this, he suddenly remembered a thing.
The socks here are all made of cloth, and I am used to recruiting my brother, and secondly, I have always thought that I can't knit socks, so I can only wear these inelastic socks, except for a little sadness in winter, it is not too difficult.
At this time, it suddenly occurred to me that although there is no nylon elasticity that is not large enough, it is completely possible to imitate the weaving method of cotton socks, and make the bottom, and the socks are knitted with ribbed stitches, and then tied with a belt like cloth socks!
What does it matter if she doesn't know how to knit socks? She knows these little shoes, and these must give her brother infinite creativity.
Brother Zhao's idea was right, and Brother Lai did surprise her.
Needless to say, the socks knitted with wool are thick, and when worn on the feet, it doesn't feel too good, but no matter how fine the thread is, it is still thick in comparison.
Brother Lai carefully asked Brother Zhao to describe the feeling requirements in her "imagination", not only to move the idea online, but also to make changes in the weaving.
If you want to make an effect as thin as silk thread, you can't achieve such an effect with wool alone, and you can't do it by hand, and you can't achieve such an effect with a fine signature.
As early as before Zhao Di taught her to knit socks, she found out when she practiced the jersey knitting method at home, this thing is too labor-intensive, and the time to weave a circle can be used to weave a not short section, and then she went to find a younger brother, who is also very talented in making things.
The two sisters are people who dare to think and dare to do things, tossing and turning, and according to the effect of the finished product that the younger brother played, they really tossed out a thing.
To be exact, it can only be regarded as a semi-finished product, which is naturally not good compared to the weaving machine at that time, but it is much faster than the hand-weaving speed.
It's just that at that time, I was interested in a mind to study, and I really made it to find that this thing is really not very useful, and the things woven out of this thing are the same, if you want to get a finished product, it is a good way to do it by hand, otherwise, isn't it faster to get a loom?
It wasn't until the socks came out that I found out the usefulness of this thing, aren't the socks all the same, they only need to be changed slightly, and they are made into cylindrical shapes.
When this machine came out, because of its chicken rib attributes, the younger brother was embarrassed to take it in front of the younger brother, so when the younger brother came out again with the new version of the socks that finally succeeded after countless trials, the younger brother was surprised to find that in a place they didn't know, the younger brother had actually done such a big thing.
Brother Lai didn't know the huge business opportunities hidden in it, for her, it was just a small thing, and in her heart, it probably had to be meaningful to study a new brocade with Master Zhan.
However, Brother Zhao knows.
Small commodities like socks, look inconspicuous, but no one can leave the daily necessities, look at the profit is not big, but in fact feed a lot of people, recruit the younger brother at the beginning of the idea of this, but also because now can only be hand-knitted, the cost is high, production can not go up, rely on a pair of weaving to when?
Otherwise, if there were enough benefits, she would have remembered it a long time ago.
Although I don't want to admit it, but Zhao Di himself also knows that he has become a wealthy man now, and before anything to do, he will subconsciously calculate the investment and income, no wonder the environment affects people, it is really when people's thinking is formed, no matter what they think, there will be this trace.
But the younger brothers have solved this problem, what does this mean?
It means that although it cannot achieve automated production, it can be semi-automated, and everyone does not need to learn to knit socks, but only needs to be able to change needles and threads, so that the little girls she bought back can do this.
Brother Zhao immediately told the brother about the mixing of some threads, for people who are used to wearing cloth socks, in fact, they are not very used to the feeling of socks tightly strangled feet, what Zhao Brother thinks about is, first make winter socks, good warmth, and after everyone is used to wearing this well-fitting and warm socks, other seasons will naturally not consider loose cloth socks.
At this time, I found that the benefits of buying so many girls are not to monopolize, but now I have to monopolize, at this time, as long as I know, when there is competition, the first thing that comes to mind is the price war.
In such a small place, this kind of competition is only less profitable, but if you change to a big city, there is a secret recipe of the ancestors, which will be a unique technique, and maybe it will become a scourge of life.
Even if it is the current emperor Shengming, but when the decree arrives in the place, there will always be some discounts, no matter how good the emperor is, there is no guarantee that everyone at the bottom is a good official, right?
The rafters that come out will always rot first.
Brother Lai is very interested in the rabbit wool that Brother Zhao said, however, Brother Zhao only knows one name, she will wear it, as for how to mix it, what proportion she knows a ghost.
Fortunately, the younger brother never thought that the younger brother would know these things she "wanted", but she just felt that the eldest sister was smart, and she "thought" more than them, and she was more reliable than them.
But it's right to think about it, she has been dealing with various materials every day lately, although this rabbit fur is smooth, but because it is short, it is particularly easy to take off, and it is not within the scope of their consideration, but if it is added when rubbing the wool, it is not impossible to try.
Brother Zhao is now in a daze at a gift given to her by Mr. He.
Zhaodi here has any new things and good things will send a copy to Mr. He and them, firstly, we have a good relationship, secondly, we have related interests, we are both friends and partners, and the current situation is that all the businesses of Zhaodi have their share.
It is tacitly understood that the interests of Zhaodi are also related to them, so they will naturally protect her.
If she asked Brother Zhao to find someone to take refuge in herself, and find a thigh to hug, she really couldn't do it. It's not because of her identity in this life, but because she's really not a person of this character.
Let her flatter others and say some sycophants, well, of course, these are all beautiful and beautiful wrapped in some language games, but no matter how you can hide the real purpose of these, this is not high emotional intelligence for her, but inferior.
Well, it is often said that Zhou Changtai is a guy with low emotional intelligence, and the emotional intelligence of the actual recruit brother is also ordinary, but fortunately, she is really good-hearted, and she treats people really well, others can naturally understand it, and those people naturally know whether she is sincere or false.
Maybe it's because others understand it that they are more willing to work with her.
The gift came from courtesy, and what Mr. He gave her was the felt offered by a newly converted mountain tribe recently.
Deep in the mountains, this tribe has always been self-sufficient and has never dealt with the outside world, and of course, they have no one to deal with before. However, after so many years of reclamation here, the popularity has forced back the miasma caused by no one all year round, and for them, they are still living their own lives, never caring about the rise and fall of the outside world.
Anyway, no matter how many rulers have changed, they don't know and don't want to know, just live their lives well.
However, this kind of day ended after Tang Gongzi brought people into the mountain.
At the beginning, it was only after more than ten years that the emperor paid attention to the fact that iron ore was found here, and in the agrarian society, iron was an extremely important livelihood and military material, and the emperor set this place as the fief of King Yan, but also for the mineral deposits here.
What I didn't expect was that the discovery of an iron ore was not enough, and a gold mine was accidentally discovered, so will there be more other mineral deposits?
In addition to Tang Gongzi's daily inspections, since more soldiers came, it was naturally a good time to explore with enough manpower, not to mention, he needed to know the details of this place, didn't he?
At the beginning, no one thought that there would be people in it, and without defense, two people were injured by arrows, but after all, Tang Gongzi led a regular army, which is comparable to them?
Fortunately, the tribal leader is a smart person who sees the opportunity quickly, and when he finds that he is invincible, he immediately takes refuge in it, they have been growing in this mountain, and the situation is naturally more familiar, and Tang Gongzi did not embarrass them much, after all, there are familiar people to lead the way, it is really a matter of twice the result with half the effort.
This felt is offered by the tribe, the workmanship is not fine, in their eyes, rough is very, the only desirable thing is that I don't know how they pressed the wool into such a fine piece, they can't pull it out, and the moisture insulation effect is also good.
Mr. He knew that Zhao Di had everything here, although he didn't know if it would be useful to her, so he still asked someone who could make this felt, and gave it to Zhao Di along with this felt.
It is necessary to say here that although this is an uncivilized tribe, the hierarchy is very strict.
One side of the green mountains and green water, she took a flat boat to swim in it, the oars gently rowed through, the ripples spread out in a circle, the green mountains are reflected in the water, the water is full of beautiful flowers, there are slim lotuses, looming among the broad lotus leaves, and there are water lilies floating in the leaves on the water surface, charming and colorful, red, yellow, purple, white, layer by layer, stacked, the breeze is slightly sent, the flowers and leaves move together, this time, how a beautiful word! There are also small five-petal yellow flowers, the flower is shaped like an early spring flower, the edge of the petals is in the shape of a thin whisker, people can't help but want to reach out and touch, the small does not show the mountain, does not dew, but one, two, countless flowers, when the flowers are connected into a piece, when the piece extends in the sky, the junction of the water and the sky is a piece of golden splendor, there are green mountains faintly, the sky is very low, the clouds are extremely white, look back, you can see the flowers gradually thinning, the leaves are gradually dewed, the lotus and lotus are sandwiched in it, until the nearby can be said to be sparse flowers, you can see the water, but the sky is extremely high, the water is extremely clear, the flowers are extremely beautiful, and the oil is raw" Ling Bo is only on Hengtang Road, but he sees and Fangchen goes. Who is with the Jinse Hua Nian? Yueqiao Flower Courtyard, Zhuhu Window, only Spring Knows. "Sigh, after waking up, Luo Yi also thought that he had the talent of the creator, hooking the radish silk flower hook addicted, even the flowers in the dream added a whisker edge to it, of course, that year, this baby still stayed in reading "jagged wattles, left and right flow...", "jagged wattles, left and right picking...", "jagged wattles, left and right picks...", this is a common comparison technique in ancient poems, the era of wattles is a kind of vegetable, and a long, long time later, when she traveled around, when she saw this mention of it, she remembered "My fair lady, the gentleman is good (to be continued. )
