Both items were placed on the ground, both covered with cotton cloths. What's inside, maybe only Wang Gongzheng, who made them, knows.

Wang Gong was standing nervously under the Danbi of the Jinde Palace. He knew these two sets of things in the cotton. But what is the use, he does not know. What he knew was that as long as one of the two of Shizi and Miss Luo was amused, it would be possible for him to turn over the tragic leaf and regain his position as the chief craftsman of the Shu Palace. At that time, the workmanship of the eight products, the meager salary, and the insulting wife, all the troubles that plagued him would be far away from him.

Wang Gongzheng watched Zheng Changshi walk down from Danbi with two farmers, and hurriedly bowed his waist. At this time, a little girl's voice stopped Zheng Changshi, and then Miss Luo's voice also entered Wang Gongzheng's ears:

"Zheng Changshi, please stay. Take a look at the good things that Wang Gongzheng brought today! ”

Wang Gongzheng hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed at Danbi. The Xiyi monk behind him was very presumptuous, and he simply bowed slightly.

Miss Luo's voice came from overhead: "Master Wang, don't kneel, get up quickly." ”

The voice is very sweet, and there is a "master" in the clip. In Daming, the master is noble, and it is by no means a cheap title that is casually rewarded.

Wang Gongzheng was overjoyed, which was a good sign. But he learned the previous lesson and immediately prostrated deeply:

"The minister will not dare to pretend to be the girl's master!"

"Alright! Since Wang Gongzheng doesn't want to be called a master, this girl still calls you Gongzheng. ”

"Let the girl, like a fog!" The Xiyi monk behind Wang Gongzheng lost no time in speaking.

"Touch you!" Luo Yuhong replied casually, making Zheng Anmin beside her tremble.

"Mo is very, why do you all speak English, but you can't speak noble Latin?"

"This ...... It's a long story. Wang Gongzheng, you put things out and take a look. ”

Wang Gongzheng was glad that Miss Luo had refocused her attention on him, and with a grunt, he got up from the ground and tore off the cotton cloth that covered his head.

……

Since it was Miss Luo who came to inspect in person, it was naturally what Miss Luo ordered to appear first. It's just that this thing is really too simple to look good.

On an ordinary square bench, two tile-like objects are held in place with wooden strips.

Surrounded by tiles, a rotating square wooden frame is supported in the middle by two pieces of drilled iron.

The square outer diameter of the square wooden frame is wrapped with a turn of copper wire. The two ends of the copper wire are embedded in the rotating shaft of the wooden frame, leading to two wire ends. The rotating shaft is inlaid with two copper rings separated from each other, and the copper rings are respectively connected with the copper wires drawn out, and rubbed against the two copper plates nailed on the bench.

After the handle is shaken, the square wooden frame is rotated. The two pieces of copper rubbed against the two copper rings on the rotating shaft of the wooden frame.

"Wang Gongzheng, you did a good job!" Luo Yuhong smiled happily and praised: "Businessmen often say that selling money does not sell money, and the stall should be rounded." At least this thing looks like it! ”

Wang Gongzheng's eyes narrowed with a smile: "Thank you Miss Luo for the compliment!" ”

"I wonder if you've painted on the copper wire?"

"Miss Luo dictated the next steps herself, how dare the minister save work and be lazy?" Wang Gongzheng hurriedly solemnly declared, "The minister will soak the copper wire pulled out in the high-grade cooked tung oil, and soak it again after drying." If so, the third person dares to entangle himself on this wooden frame. ”

Luo Yuhong happily put her hands behind her back and circled around the bench twice: "What is the hardest part?" Is it difficult to pull copper wire? ”

Wang Gongzheng replied with a smile: "It's easy to draw wire. The red copper strip is originally soft, but when it is red, it becomes softer, and when it is inserted into the iron hole, it becomes a thick copper wire. From the large hole to the small hole, the wire becomes thinner and thinner, which is similar to the method of drawing gold and silver wire. It's just good to use red copper! Red copper is soft, if it is mixed with zinc, tin or lead, the copper bar is hard and brittle, and it will break if it is fine.

If you ask this the most difficult part, it is this magnet grinding!

Magnet is brittle. The minister began to try to save effort, and struck with a chisel, but it broke as soon as he knocked it. Later, I couldn't, so I had to ask the stonemason to make a runner out of a grinding stone, dip it in water and slowly polish it......"

"After the magnet is ready, is it still magnetic?"

"Yes! Ministers have tried, the same sex attracts, the opposite sex repels each other, it's not false at all! ”

"Good!" Luo Yuhong couldn't help but scream.

"Tan Fang, come here!"

As soon as Tan Fang came over, he was grabbed by the anxious Luo Yuhong's right hand. Luo Yuhong made a scissor hand when taking pictures, and then ordered Tan Fang to do the same. Tan Fang, who was inexplicable, stupidly put on a victory posture in front of everyone.

Luo Yuhong roughly pressed Tan Fang's two slender fingertips on the two copper plates that were in contact with the copper ring, and then ordered Wang Gongzheng to shake the handle!

The square wooden frame, with the copper wires wound around it, began to rotate in two tile-shaped magnets, making a buzzing sound.

When the rotation began, Luo Yuhong jumped away from Tan Fang like an electric shock, and then opened his eyes wide to observe Tan Fang's face.

"Is there a little numb on your body?" Luo Yuhong asked Tan Fang with concern.

"Miss Huiluo." Tan Fang looked at the eyes around her and felt that her face was feverish, "The slave is not numb, but it is a little hot!" ”

That's not right! Luo Yuhong thought about it seriously. This is what the generator model made by the middle school physics teacher looks like this!

She patted her head, she must not have shaken fast enough!

"Wang Gongzheng, speed up and shake! Shake as fast as possible! Luo Yuhong ordered loudly. As she spoke, her hands were already unconsciously crossed on her waist.

"Okay!"

How many opportunities does Wang Gongzheng have to show himself in front of Miss Luo? Besides, he made this thing according to the method personally instructed by Miss Luo, in case Miss Luo is not satisfied, will he be angry with his craftsmanship?

So, Wang Gongzheng began to turn the handle frantically regardless of his age. The wooden bench began to shake under the constant alternating force. At the moment when he was about to topple, An Wensi, who was highly vigilant about the stool, pounced on it and pressed the stool with both hands.

And so, tragedy struck.

Bang!

An Wensi's head and Tan Fang's head collided together like Mars hitting the earth.

"Oops!

Exclamations in Portuguese or noble Latin are no different from those in Chinese.

Tan Fang struggled to control her shaking body, sniffed, and bean-sized tears swirled in her red eyes. She wanted to wipe her tears with her sleeve, but she didn't want to be embarrassed in front of everyone, so she had to cover the crater on her forehead with her slender white palm.

"You daredevil!" Luo Yuhong scolded An Wensi sharply. At the same time, he rushed over and took the crumbling Tan Fang into his arms.

"Does it hurt?"

Luo Yuhong put Tan Fang's head in her shoulder socket and asked in a whisper, and then said for her without waiting for her to answer: "It must hurt." But he's here to help, not on purpose. You don't blame him. ”

"Hmm"

Tan Fang's voice was so painful that it was already deformed.

Luo Yuhong still didn't give up on her copycat generator: "Did you feel a little numb just now?" Is it the feeling of crispy all over the body? ”

"I didn't crisp just now," Tan Fang's voice became thinner and thinner, "Now my whole body is numb......

Before she finished speaking, her body went limp, slipped out of Luo Yuhong's arms, and collapsed to the ground silently.

"Call the doctor!"

Doctor Luo's daughter shouted.

……

The test failed miserably, and Tan Fang was also put in.

Luo Yuhong hugged her chest with one hand and supported her chin with the other, looking at the empty office angrily, and the good mood just now disappeared.

Why does the generator have no electricity? What went wrong? She couldn't figure it out.

Since you can't figure it out, you don't want to think about it for the time being. That's her character.

Luo Yuhong reached out and grabbed a stack of papers, opened them and looked at them, so as to relieve his depression. The first one was a message from Gao Antai.

Gao Antai successfully persuaded Ren Moumou, the boss of the nine-surnamed chief lawsuit, through one of his old relationships, Cai Moumou, the teacher of the nine-surnamed chief lawsuit. Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, the bamboo all over the mountains is not cut white, it is better for everyone to get rich together. Subsequently, he passed through Yongningwei and arrived at Bijiewei. He planned to visit the nearest Zhenxiong Mansion first, then visit the three prefectures of Wusa, Wumeng and Dongchuan in turn, and finally go to Kunming to meet King Mu and present the gift of the prince.

"I wrote a work report as a travelogue. This senior boy is really good at playing! ”

Luo Yuhong flipped through the content inside, in addition to the terrain, scenery, folk customs and production, it was the attitude of the pass, the garrison and the Tusi. Most of these were not interested, so she decided to put it on hold first, and then wait for Zhu Pingjin to come back to deal with it.

The second letter is the report of Huitong Bank.

With the opening of a large number of branches and the good credit of the bank, a large amount of silver from private cellars was deposited in the bank, which was exchanged for silver banknotes that could be invested in the Sichuan Machinery Bureau, the Road Bureau and the Shunfeng Dart Bureau.

By the time the account was set up on December 25 last year, the amount of silver in the warehouse had exceeded 8 million taels. According to the ratio of 1:12, this means that the total amount of silver banknotes issued has reached 10 million taels. Among them, nearly 2 million taels of silver banknotes were returned to the bank through industrial units such as the Machinery Bureau in the form of unit deposits or personal provident funds for military employees, becoming new investment capital.

Huitong also reported that more than a dozen dumping shops in Chengdu have recently closed quietly.

Because of the introduction of silver money, the business of physical silver smelting and casting has decreased a lot, and this is the main business of dumping shops; Because the battlefield urgently needed a large number of artillery, the government also took a lot of copper coins, and the side business of dumping shops was also hit. The gradual withdrawal of copper coins from the market will also completely deprive dumpers of another traditional business that has not seen the light of day: private minting of people's money, that is, counterfeit money.

Therefore, Huitong Qianzhuang judged that sooner or later, Sichuan's dumping industry would be dominated by the dumping branch under Huitong Qianzhuang. The dumping branch in Huitong Bank is actually only the business department of exchanging gold, silver and copper coins for silver banknotes in the bank. Precious metals just go in and out. If anyone wanted to see real gold and silver, he could only take a dozen silver bills to the counter of the banker and exchange them for a hundred taels of silver bricks.

Luo Yuhong silently recited in his heart: "Zhu Pingjin said that there are 150 million silver deposited in Sichuan, and 8 million silver in the warehouse is less than a fraction. 150 million (Note 1)! I don't know where he heard the numbers! Small banknotes are not cost-effective, and small coins will still be issued sooner or later, either on the copper standard or on the stainless steel standard. ”

She wanted to give a few words, picked up the charcoal and put it down again. She learned traditional Chinese characters for a few days, but she wrote like a dog's planing, which was too far behind Zhu Pingjian's level. On weekdays, her instructions are only said with her mouth, and then handed over to Tan Fang, who is well-written, to record and copy. Now Tan Fang was injured unexpectedly, and it is estimated that a slight concussion will not be able to run. Who will replace her job?

originally wanted to use work to solve unpleasantness, but it made Luo Yuhong think of Tan Fang again. She wanted to recruit Wu Suqi to replace her immediately, but she felt that this little woman was too lively, immature enough, and lacked understanding of the situation in the palace. What to do? She thought to herself, it would be better to .......

As soon as the brass bell rang, a young eunuch with long legs but always bent over and his head bowed came in. The eunuch said softly, Cao Sanbao Cao's father-in-law heard that Tan Fang had an accident, so he asked him to come over and replace him for a few days.

Cao Sanbao is also the executive deputy director of the General Office of the Prince of the World, and he is also the Chengfeng Department of the Shu Palace. It was reasonable and reasonable for him to send someone over, but Luo Yuhong didn't want to take over this stubble.

"Everyone knows that I have a psychological barrier to eunuchs, and I sent another eunuch!" Luo Yuhong muttered and ordered the eunuch to call Zheng Changshi and Wang Bin, the chief of staff.

Wang Bin is a native of Chengdu, a long-term history secretary, and a civil official of the palace of the ninth grade. After concurrently serving as the director of the General Office of the Chief of Administration, Wang Bin immediately jumped from the rank of platoon to the rank of the main battalion, and suddenly rose to four ranks, which made other palace officials red.

Luo Yuhong called Wang Bin to let him be the director of Luo's office. As for Zheng Anmin's office, let him find someone by himself. Even so, Luo Yuhong still felt that she had suffered a big loss:

The director of her husband's Zhu Office is Cheng Xiangfeng, who has recently been promoted to deputy brigade, and his director of Luo Office is only at the battalion level.

Why are my people so low!

"You go and invite Zheng Changshi and Director Wang! As for you, you'd better go back on an errand! Luo Yuhong instructed the eunuch.

"Yes!" The voice of the answer was a little nasal congestion.

"What's wrong?" Luo Yuhong's heart suddenly softened, "What's your name?" ”

"Ren II."

"It's a terrible name! I'll change one for you later. ”

"Slave, thank you Miss Luo for the name!"

"Hmm...... Why don't you want to go back? Luo Yuhong said to the eunuch kneeling on the ground.

"Gong Cao is fair, the slave and maid can wait by the master's side, that is the blessing that the slave and maid cultivated in their previous life!"

"Hmm...... In that case, you stay, do chores first, and help Director Wang do something. Can you read and write? ”

"The slave has been studying in the palace since she was six years old. Reading and writing are excellent. ”

"Hmm...... All right! Remember, the first thing to do when working with me is to be loyal! Be loyal to this girl! …… And the son! Traitors killed! Wang Sizhong is the end! The second action is sharp, and it is not allowed to procrastinate! Thirdly...... This girl hasn't thought about it yet, so I'll tell you when I think about it. In short, performance appraisal will reward you for doing well, and punish for doing badly! ”

Luo Yuhong was tired in one breath, so he changed his breath and said, "Raise your head first, let me see my face." I have to know you! ”

A clean and bearded chin, a delicate face, and a pair of clear eyes. Handsome guy! Handsome to make the sun shine, handsome to make women salivate!

"Zoner?!"

Luo Yuhong was taken aback: How could Cao Sanbao, an ancient, know that I like to chase Korean dramas?!

Note 1: 150 million, that is, the "ten thousand five" passed down by the people of Chengdu, this is the number of Zhang Xianzhong's Jiangkou Shenyin legend. Jiangkou Shenyin has experienced several large-scale fishing in the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, and recently excavated a large amount of silver. Whether the total number of them has reached the scale of "ten thousand five", Hibiki has no way of knowing.
