When Ning Xia Qing hurried to the workshop, he was still a step late, Second Master Ning had already left, and only Ning Zhiqi stayed here to deal with some of the things that Second Master Ning had explained.

Ning Xia Qing walked in front of Ning Zhiqi, and didn't talk to Ning Xia Qing, and asked directly: "Cousin, how is the workshop?" What about the second cousin? ”

Ning Zhiqi replied with a bitter face while being dizzy: "I'm sorry, cousin, when the workshop encounters this kind of thing, there are too many problems that need to be dealt with, I'm too busy now, you can find a place to sit by yourself for a while." Then he didn't pour out the time to talk to Ning Xia Qing again.

Ning Xia Qing couldn't help but feel impetuous, looked left and right, and didn't see Wei San's figure, probably going out with Ning Er's side. Ning Xia Qing had no choice but to squeeze into the pile of workers in the workshop, look at people's faces one by one, and it took a long time to find Ai Lu with a dignified face.

Ning Xia Qing called Ai Lu to a place where there were few people, and seeing that Ai Lu was also panicked, Ning Xia Qing asked, "What is the situation now?" Has it really been blocked? Is there still room for manoeuvre? ”

Ai Lu shook his head and whispered, "I don't know either...... What happened just now is particularly scary...... As soon as the second master heard that the officers and soldiers said that they wanted to close the workshop, how could they agree, in order to protect the workshop, they almost fought with the officers and soldiers, which was really scary. The officers and soldiers came with official documents, and the second master had no choice in the end, and now the workshop has been sealed. ”

Ning Ningqing was also full of sadness, and asked, "What about after that?" Where did the second master go? ”

Ai Lu said: "I don't know. Ai Lu thought for a while and said, "However, I estimate that at this time, the second master can only go to the third master." ”

Ning Ningqing also felt so in his heart, the second master was not a sociable person, and when he went out at this time, he could only go to find the third master, but he didn't know if he was going to say this to the third master. Ning Xia Qing thought for a moment and said to Ai Lu: "Can you go to the Weaving Bureau to inquire about this?" ”

Ai Lu nodded: "I'll go now." ”

After Ai Lu left, Ningxia Qing stood in the workshop and looked at Ning Zhiqi, who was in a hurry.

She couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Ning Zhiqi's personality is carved out of the same mold as Ning Er's master, and he is also in his twenties this year, but he doesn't know much about human feelings, and he focuses on weaving technology.

Ning Xia Qing looked at Ning Zhiqi in front of him, only to see that in such an unexpected situation, this Ning Zhiqi was left by Ning Erye to deal with things, but he was in a hurry and couldn't follow the rules at all.

When Ning Zhiqi had a clue over there, and saw Ning Zhiqi wiping his sweat tiredly, Ning Xia Qing walked up to Ning Zhiqi and said, "Cousin has worked hard, dare to ask the second cousin if he is looking for the third cousin?" ”

Ning Zhiqi nodded, and replied honestly: "My father thinks that this is the black hand of the third uncle, so he went to the third uncle to theorize." Ning Zhiqi thought for a while and said: "But I don't think this is necessarily the case, because this matter is a document from the government, so I can't be sure that it must be the third uncle's hands and feet......

Ning Xia Qing couldn't be sure for a while whether this matter had anything to do with Ning San, when the matter came out, although she was confused, she did vaguely suspect Ning San's head, so she asked: "What does the second cousin plan to say to the third cousin?" "If it's just a fire, it's really useless, but Second Master Ning is likely to do it.

Ning Zhiqi shook his head and replied honestly: "I don't know either." Ning Zhiqi asked: "Cousin, did you come here so soon because the officers and soldiers had already been to Huacaiyuan?" ”

Ning Ningqing nodded and said: "The officers and soldiers said that from now on, 'Merit Consummation' will be included in the list of prohibited goods, and it will never be sold in the future. ”

Ning Zhiqi also hung his head and said: "Yes, the officers and soldiers said that they will no longer be allowed to produce 'merit consummation' in the future, and the entire workshop will have to be temporarily closed for processing." ”

Speaking of this, Ning Zhiqi said with great sadness: "There are still satin dyed in the workshop, the most important thing when dyeing the material is the hour, it must be done at one time, and as long as it is a short time, the material will be dyed and wasted, and the materials that have begun to be dyed are finished!" ”

Ning Xia Qingmiao was stunned and asked, "Everything in the workshop has stopped?" ”

Ning Zhiqi nodded and said, "Yes, because the officers and soldiers said, let the workshop temporarily suspend work and wait for processing." ”

Ning Xia Qing sighed, suddenly cried and laughed, and reminded: "Although the officers and soldiers said so, isn't this matter now completely closed, if it is okay in the end, won't this batch of materials that have been cut and dyed be wasted?" ”

Ning Zhiqi was stunned: "That...... So what to do? ”

Ning Xia Qing asked, "What did the second cousin say before leaving?" Do you want to listen to the government's words and stop work temporarily, or do you want to continue dyeing the materials at hand first? ”

Ning Zhiqi scratched his head and said: "My father didn't mention this when he left, but he told me about other things, and I guess he forgot about this stubble...... Cousin, why don't you give me a favor? ”

Ning Xia Qing whispered: "Send away most of the craftsmen in the name of stopping work, let others think that you have really stopped working, and then quietly leave a few trustworthy workers to finish the materials at hand first, so as not to blind the materials that are already dyed." Anyway, there are no officers and soldiers guarding here, and if you secretly finish what you do, the government will not know. ”

Ning Zhiqi was stunned for a moment, and asked hesitantly: "Is this ...... Does it really work? ”

Ningxia Qingdao: "The second cousin probably forgot to tell you, I think, the second cousin should actually mean the same thing." Don't worry, as long as the government doesn't deliberately find faults, they won't forgive, if the government deliberately finds faults, even if you don't do anything, they can always find faults. ”

Ning Zhiqi scratched his head and said, "That's fine, otherwise it's a pity to be blind with good material." After speaking, let the steward under him do what Ning Ningqing had planned.

Immediately, the workshop sent away most of the craftsmen in the name of stopping work, leaving only a group of trustworthy craftsmen who would never leak the news to continue to finish the materials that were already dyed on their hands.

Ning Ningqing still stayed in the workshop, waiting for Ning Er to come back.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Second Master Ning must have gone to find Third Master Ning, because in her understanding, it was impossible for Second Master Ning to find someone else at this time.

But she didn't know, was this really the hand of Master Ning San? She couldn't believe it.

Emotionally speaking, if this matter gets bigger, Second Master Ning may even lose his head, although generally speaking, the government will not punish it so severely, but there may be any case.

Second Master Ning and Third Master Ning are brothers, even if Third Master Ning is for the purpose of rectifying Second Master Ning, is it so ruthless? Want to send Second Master Ning to the guillotine?

Although she has long understood the truth of ruthlessness in the face of interests to her bones, she has seen people who are not related by blood or who are far away from each other to death, and such things as killing her own siblings really make her a little unbelievable.

Logically, she thought there was something strange about it.

First of all, although Zhehuang is a color that is expressly forbidden to be used by the people, and once it violates this article, it will face serious consequences, but in this world, because it is too difficult to implement, there has always been a field called "the people do not raise officials and do not hold officials".

No government will have the manpower to check every piece of cloth in this world, so the taboo of Zhehuang has always been consciously observed by the people out of fear, even if someone really violates this taboo, the government will probably not know at all.

Moreover, because the people have always been relatively consciously abiding, there will not be a lawsuit about Zhehuang for almost many years, so the government has never needed to implement any strict measures against Zhehuang cloth, and many officials have been officials all their lives, and they have never encountered a case related to Zhehuang.

Over time, the government did not pay attention to the matter of avoiding the yellow of Zhehuang, and the court gradually ignored the matter of the yellow from top to bottom, so even if the county magistrate tried this matter, after reporting it, it would not please the superiors, and it would be basically useless to the political performance. Therefore, even if something really violates this taboo, the government will punish it casually.

Ning Xia Qing speculated that according to the government's punishment for Zhehuang, even if there was really a violation of the taboo of Zhehuang in the "Merit Perfection", the government would only want to make a big thing a small thing, and the color of ordering the suspension of production would be over, there was no need to make such a big move, and it was "Merit Perfection" off the shelves and suspended for rectification.

It's so weird. Except for Master Ning San, she couldn't imagine that there were others behind the scenes, but it was reasonable, and there seemed to be some strangeness in this matter that she couldn't say.

She was pondering this when Second Master Ning came back.

She quickly stood up and asked, "How is it?" What did Uncle Santang say? ”

"That king and eight lambs don't admit it, and they still talk about him left and right, and they interrupt me with all their might! He also laughed at me, saying that I was desperate and crazy, so I relied on him for everything! Second Master Ning trembled angrily: "I've known him for so many years, and as soon as I saw his face playing Tai Chi with me, I knew that he must have done this!" Definitely didn't run! ”

Ning Xia Qing persuaded a few words, let Second Master Ning dissipate his anger first, and then hurriedly asked about the matter: "Second Uncle Cousin, can I ask you about your skills." "The second master's temperament, Ning Xia Qing really didn't dare to directly question the second master's confidence in skills, she was afraid that she would almost be beaten like Dong Zizhen.

"Ask, ask." The second old man waved his hand impatiently.

Ning Xia Qing asked: "Second cousin, do you have the bottom in your heart, and have you committed the taboo of Zhe yellow?" Seriously, I don't believe you would make such a mistake. ”

The second master said hesitantly: "The steps of this dyeing are confidential, I told you, don't tell it." ”

The second master said in a low voice: "In order to make the material more shiny, I did use Zhemu, but I controlled the level of dyeing, absolutely not to the extent of Zhe yellow, and in order to make the luster more special, I also added a little worm barn, so that the material can see a little green in the dark." ”

Ning Xia Qing sighed: "It's the use of Zhemu that makes people grab the handle." ”
