Chapter 17: Strange Sounds
As a super self-sufficient agricultural country, the Ming Dynasty produced and consumed relatively simple materials, and more surplus agricultural and sideline products.
After wandering around, it is a basic understanding, close to the evening, Wan Dafa is ready to go back to the palace, and if he doesn't go back, the palace door is closed, but he wants to go in.
Liu Sanmao did his best to have the consciousness that a dog should have, and kept sending Wanda to the gate of the Forbidden City.
The business of the fire kang in the East Palace is in full swing, and light smoke is emitting in several places.
Wan Dafa regretted it in his heart, such a large-scale construction would not have any impact on the Forbidden City.
Of course, ordinary slaves and maids are not so blessed at all.
Zhu Youxiao nestled on the kang in Wan Dafa's room, and didn't think about it at all. What's the matter with a master sitting in a slave house?
Lazily said: "Dafa is getting colder and colder this day, and you can come up together to warm up." ”
Wan Dafa really wanted to go up, but it was disrespectful, and if he was stabbed out, he couldn't tell clearly, but it was only a day or two before Zhu Youxiao's fire kang was built.
"Your Highness, just warm up, I'll go out for a walk." Wan Dafa didn't want to accompany Zhu Youxiao to play carving, no talent was one thing, of course he was not interested.
Donggong said that it was not big but it was also very big, Wan Dafa was thinking about what he could do while walking, money, money, I am so short of money.
Walked to the middle of nowhere and heard the strange sound of mmmmmmm
The cat walked to the door, looked in from the crack in the door, and vaguely saw a figure, but the voice was a little familiar, not who was the old lady of Ke Yinyue, forget about what to do with other people's affairs, as long as you don't provoke yourself, you can do whatever you want.
"Phew, dog man and woman."
He cursed in a low voice, turned and walked to the side.
……
Liu Sanmao wore new clothes and braved the cold, carrying the silver to beckon the brothers to come back. In less than a few days, more than 30 people were brought back, and the main big guys knew that Liu Sanmao was sincere, so they all believed it, and returned to the hundred households to start cleaning up.
This incident made Zhang Yichang almost regret his intestines, if he didn't talk nonsense, wouldn't this good thing fall on him, but regret and regret, these days are busy before and after.
The 100 households in Baodafang have finally taken on a new look, at least like that.
The fire kang on the side of the East Palace is almost completed, which makes the prince Zhu Changluo, who is not a big, praise it surprisingly. Of course, under Wang An's operation, the business of the fire kang stepped out of the palace and went to the aristocratic class. Twenty taels of silver to build a fire kang is a bit too cheap, and I really don't regard patents as technology. At least a hundred taels with some vampires.
Wan Dafa has not been idle in the past few days, in addition to pointing out the technology of the fire kang, the rest is to think about what to do to make money, thinking a lot of things that can not be realized, all of them are slapped to death in their minds, in addition to being new and peculiar, they also have to be down-to-earth, the most important thing is that the people who have been summoned back are waiting hungry, and they must make a quick profit.
In the New Year, the Forbidden City is full of lights and joy, welcoming the arrival of the New Year, and the emperor wants to worship the heavens and worship his ancestors. But the Wanli Emperor really did it, but he didn't see anyone, and the matter of worshiping the heavens and worshiping the ancestors was all handed over to the idle prince, and the prince was allowed to play by himself.
The New Year doesn't seem to have anything to do with Wan Dafa, it is the emperor's New Year, and the slaves have the enjoyment of the New Year, and if they can eat a better meal than usual, even if the New Year has passed.
Wan Dafa was carrying a heavy ideological burden and had to go out of the palace to protect the Dafang Guard. The main news was sent to him, and the two hundred taels of silver he left behind would soon bottom out, and a large group of old men were still waiting for him to live.
I had a headache when I thought about it, and I entered the hundred households of Baodafang. As soon as everyone saw Wan Dafa coming, a green light appeared on their faces, and their God of Wealth arrived, and they respectfully called Lord Baihu one by one, but they really wanted to swallow Wan Dafa in their eyes.
Wan Da let out the anger of Wang Ba and shook his sleeves, "Liu Sanmao summoned everyone to the hall to discuss. ”
Stepping into the hall, it was smoky, and Wan Dafa choked and coughed a few times. In the middle of the hall, there was a brazier in which firewood was used to make a fire to keep warm, "Why do you burn firewood, this smoke is too big, why don't you burn charcoal to keep warm." ”
The big guy stared at him, and Liu Sanmao said honestly: "Where can we burn the charcoal, adult, this year, it will cost three coins of silver for a load of firewood in the cold weather, and we still make this firewood ourselves." ”
Wan Da was embarrassed, and he didn't know that firewood and rice were expensive, "The price of charcoal is better than burning firewood." ”
Liu Sanmao touched his head as if he didn't know what to do, Zhang Yichang said: "Adult charcoal is not expensive, the key is that the smoke produced by taking things is poisonous, so no one wants to use it." ”
Wan Dafa's brain was alive, and he secretly said in his heart: "By the way, make anthracite, these people in front of me can move, and the technical requirements are not high." ”
Looking at the more than 30 people crowded in the hall, Wan Dafa was not ready to get to know them one by one, please tea, cough a few times, and the hall was quiet, "I asked Liu Sanmao to gather everyone back is to work together to get some money to support the family, so the big guys have to move, I don't raise idlers here." Of course, if I want to leave as soon as possible, I don't rub sand in my eyes. ”
A group of people, you look at me, I look at you, this little guy in front of him is not easy to fool, and he has his own little abacus in his heart.
Wan Dafa continued: "Okay, you can leave if you want to, but if you want to come back in the future, then I'm sorry." Although the person was small, he was imposing, and he looked at the thirty or so people standing in the hall with a pair of eyes.
Twos and threes began to exchange ears, and two sturdy men walked towards the door with all their fists hugged at Wan Dafa.
Liu Sanmao's face turned red when he saw it, and said angrily: "You two ......"
Wan Dafa interrupted in time, "I can't keep those who should go, and I can't keep my heart even if I keep people." ”
Liu Sanmao glared at the two of them and said, "The villain swears to follow the adult to the death." ”
After leaving, neither of them nor the others moved, and when they saw Liu Sanmao's statement, the others immediately expressed their position. However, Wan Dafa is not sure that some of these people who are holding on to fishing in troubled waters, but since they don't leave, they won't let them eat and drink in vain.
Wan Dafa stood on the chair and said: "Since you don't leave, then you have to work hard, I won't treat you badly, and then let's do some business to make money, at least we won't let everyone starve." ”
The hall was silent only the crackling sound of firewood, Wan Dafa looked around and said, "Why don't you want to." ”
"Yes."
"Haven't you eaten?"
"We do."
Wan Dafa said: "Okay, then I'll assign the task." Zhang Yichang, you take a team of people to collect coal, the more the better, Liu Sanmao, you lead people to level a piece of land in the training ground, and then pull a few carts of soil over.
Zhang Yichang was puzzled: "What are you doing with charcoal, there is no need to spend money in vain." ”
Wan Dafa was undoubted, and said: "If you want to take it, you will collect it, and when you get it back, you will know what to do, here are a hundred taels of silver for you to take." ”
Zhang Yichang smiled, of course it is easy to do things with silver, but now it doesn't matter what you are doing with this thing. Everyone also saw the real money, but some people were thinking that the child in front of them was stupid and had a lot of money, and it was completely indiscriminate spending.
