Chapter 91: Making money
With Xie Qian's consent, it is much easier to get things done.
On the second day, He Liang took the lead in leading the blacksmith father and son in charge of the stove to meet Xie Zhi in the house.
Xie Zhi's stove in the bedroom was burning, and he saw the father and son directly here.
After all, now the entire Xie family is the only one with a fire here, wouldn't it be to find fault elsewhere?
The father and son's surname is Liu, the father's name is Liu Xi, and the son's name is Liu Zhuang.
The father and son were both quite strong, and the clothes they were wearing were not thick, so they took the initiative to salute Xie Zhi as soon as they met, shouting: "The villain has seen the son."
Xie Zhi put his hands behind his back and walked around the father and son for a while, before he replied with a smile: "Well, the craftsmanship of the father and son is really good, first install one in the young master's study according to this standard, and then install all the rooms in the house, the craftsmanship is finer, and it will not lose you."
Ordinary blacksmiths can only repair some farm tools to make a living, this season is cold, even the farmers are idle, who still comes to play farm tools?
No one came to the door, and the father and son could only eat their old books.
Now that someone is finally looking for them to do a job, the father and son have to stutter together.
After Xie Zhi's order, Liu Xi immediately said: "Don't worry, the craftsmanship of the villain's father and son is well-known for being careful in Jingshi, and it will definitely satisfy the son."
With the precedent of the first one, there is no longer much of a problem to do in the future, and Xie Zhi has nothing to worry about.
......
In less than two days, the bedroom, study and living room of the Xie family's family have been installed with a stove.
It's only been two days, and the matter of the stove is boiling in Beijing.
Liujia Iron Shop is rare enough to strike iron in winter, and there is a stove that can be used to keep warm.
I have heard a lot of hand stoves and foot stoves, but this stove has never been seen before, and new things have attracted a lot of attention.
Xie Qian was questioned by Liu Jian and Li Dongyang in the cabinet.
Even the Xie family also came to visit the advantages of the stove on the spot.
No matter who came to visit, Xie Zhi did not go to see him in person, but only asked Mrs. Xie to tell him that if someone wants to install a stove for two taels of silver, he can directly ask He Liang to bring someone to the door to install it.
The Ming officials' salaries were not very high, but for them, two taels of silver was completely within the acceptable range.
All of a sudden, the sound of the Liu family's iron shop striking iron was endless day and night, and batches of stoves were directly pulled to the homes of the wealthy and powerful.
In five or six days, Jingshi made a lot of noise about this matter, and the matter of the stove also reached Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao recuperated in the palace for a few days, although there was no lecture in the East Palace, but people were idle and moldy.
Hearing that Xie Zhi made such a big movement outside the palace, he was surprised, and said: "Xie Wu is really not interesting, if there is such a good thing, don't say that you bring it to the palace, no, the palace has to find him and say, Zhang Banban, you go with the palace, Liu Banban, you don't have to go with the palace, so as not to annoy Xie Wu."
Liu Jin's face was gloomy, but he had to admit it, and replied: "Yes, Your Highness."
Zhang Yong and Liu Jin replied the same, but their faces were full of excitement.
Zhu Houzhao took Zhang Yong out of the palace and went directly to Xie's house.
At this moment, Xie Zhi was leisurely drinking tea in his study, and roasted buns were placed on the stove, golden and fragrant.
"Xie Wu, Xie Wu..."
When he shouted, Zhu Houzhao walked in.
Xie Zhi didn't get up, and shouted lightly: "It seems that His Highness's wind cold has been cured?"
Zhu Houzhao walked to Xie Zhi's side with some unhappiness and asked: "This palace has created this opportunity for you to suspend school in the East Palace, there is such a good thing, why don't you say that you will call this palace."
Xie Zhi put down the teacup in his hand and said lightly: "Your Highness, what is the opportunity for the East Palace to suspend school, which you created?" If His Majesty hears this, what will His Majesty think? ”
Zhu Houzhao tossed himself sick, and he didn't instigate it, can he talk to him?
He had never thought of suspending Donggong from school.
Zhu Houzhao didn't say anything, directly turned around the stove a few times, and asked, "What kind of stove is this?"
Xie Zhi got up and walked to Zhu Houzhao's side, took the baked bun and handed it to Zhu Houzhao, and replied, "Yes, it's warm, right?" Your Highness? ”
Zhu Houzhao ate the bun and no longer bothered with the fact that Xie Zhi didn't take him.
He sat down in a chair next to him and replied, "It's warm."
Then, he asked with a smile: "Xie Wu, you have also made a lot of money from this stove, right?"
Zhu Houzhao is the crown prince, and it is always right to tie him to a rope, and Xie Zhi is not ready to eat alone at all.
Xie Zhi picked up the account book of installing the stove in the past few days, pulled up a smile, and said proudly: "Your Highness, I Xie Zhi is by no means a person who eats alone, although His Highness has not been involved in this matter from beginning to end, but the grass people have never forgotten His Majesty, this is the account book of the stove installed in the past few days, and the profits are here, if Your Highness needs silver, you can take it directly, and the grass people are willing to share it with Your Highness."
Zhu Houzhao has food and clothing as the prince, and there are arrangements in the palace, and he has nothing to use silver.
But Xie Zhi's generosity still made Zhu Houzhao full of joy.
Zhu Houzhao glanced at the account book, extremely excited, and said, "Xie Wu, you are really interesting."
Xie Zhi pulled up a smile and said with a smile: "Money is nothing outside the grass people, if it weren't for the grass people to avoid the Xie family from having too many interests with those wealthy and powerful, it would never be solved by trading."
Zhu Houzhao grabbed the account book and said nervously: "Don't, although this silver is not much, but it can be held in your own hands, you can rest assured, Xie Wu, this silver has nothing to do with Master Xie, right?"
Xie Zhi earned this money for ease of use, and how could he put it back into the Xie family's account.
Regarding Zhu Houzhao's question, Xie Zhi replied: "Since it has nothing to do with it, when the first stove came out, the grass people borrowed one or two from their mothers, and they have already been repaid, and now these profits are all owned by the grass people... and Your Highness..."
Zhu Houzhao breathed a sigh of relief and said with confidence: "Okay... That's fine... By the way, Xie Wu, this time I came out of the palace with Zhang Banban, and Liu Banban's dog thing is too eyeless. ”
Zhang Yong followed Zhu Houzhao and immediately bowed his hand and said, "I've seen Xie Jieyuan."
In any case, Zhang Yong and Xie Zhi are not hostile relations, as long as Zhang Yong can occupy Liu Jin's dominant position in the East Palace, then Xie Zhi can only be more smooth sailing in the East Palace.
Xie Zhi responded with a grin.
At this moment, a member of the Xie family shouted outside the door: "Fifth Young Master, Shouning Hou is here..."
Before Xie Zhi could respond, a familiar voice rang out at the door, "Xie Xie Yuan Benhou came to take a look at you..."
Look at? What's there to see?
Before Xie Zhi could speak, Zhu Houzhao on the side hid directly behind the screen like a rabbit, "Why is Shou Ninghou here?" Hongu had to hide. ”
I'm afraid it's not like you slipped out of the palace, right?
