"Your Highness doesn't want people to know, be careful." Du He reprimanded in a low voice.

"It's okay, it turned out to be King Bin, King Bin, it's a certain faux pas, please sit down." Li Chengqian said with a smile.

"I don't know if Lang Jun is here, it's Ma Zhou who is unreasonable, where did Lang Jun know, is a strange person?" Ma Zhou's face froze, and he said in surprise.

The eldest grandson laughed, and then recounted what the shopkeeper had just said. "There is no better fate in life than this." Ma Zhou also stroked his palms and smiled.

Li Chengqian looked at Ma Zhou: "When you first came to the imperial capital, you are not familiar with the place, but you can temporarily enter my mansion, I don't know what King Bin wants." ”

Others don't know this person, but Li Chengqian knows that Ma Zhou is a genius of the Tang Dynasty and the future prime minister. I went out today and picked up a baby. "After passing through the Xinfenggu Restaurant, there is no need to be satisfied. Huashan Xianbo Xu Si looked, and people knew Ma Zhou when they were fighting. This is what the poem says about.

"Xie Langjun appreciates, he is ashamed to be ashamed, he is a certain self-servant, and he dares to disobey his fate." Ma Zhou got up and thanked him. Now is the time of despair, and it is a promising future to be appreciated by this prince.

The two of them had their own thoughts, but they were both smiling and chatting happily.

One is to recruit with a heart, and the other is to try to show their talents. After talking about it, Li Chengqian couldn't help but admire in his heart, he was really talented, with the help of this person, he would be much easier.

After a while, the dishes and chopsticks were put on the table, and Du He raised his glass, "Don't talk about anything else, I heard that you are bold and informal, come and taste the osmanthus wine here, it tastes really good." ”

The four of them were staggered, full of wine and food. Li Chengqian drank very little, and he tasted it lightly, without him, the wine of the Tang Dynasty was similar to the rice wine of later generations, and it was turbid, and there was a layer of yellow-green scum floating on it. The alcohol content and aroma are not as good as the warm wine, and today I really understand the heroes of the cooking wine theory in the ancient books, as well as the green ant new brew wine mentioned in the ancient poem. In fact, it is really unappetizing.

When several people came to the street, Li Chengqian instructed Du He: "It's time to change King Bin's outfit, you accompany King Bin to buy clothes and other daily necessities, and then go back to the house to settle down." King Bin is talented, and everything King Bin needs in the future can be withdrawn from the account of the prince's mansion, without asking the reason. "It's a blatant trust.

"Lang Jun, where are we going?" Watching Du He accompany Ma Zhou to leave, the eldest grandson asked, after a long time, everyone else has something to do, and I dare to love nothing.

"It's still early, let's go and have a walk." Li Chengqian looked at his impatient appearance and smiled. Koumaxing was a place where slaves and livestock were traded.

The two of them soon came over, and the roadside was full of men, women, and children, most of them scrawny and disheveled, some of whom sold themselves into slavery, and some of whom sold their sons and daughters. The largest wooden platform was used for the slave trade of official slaves and prisoners of war. A stout man was shouting on the platform, and a circle of people was gathered under the platform, and from time to time there was a burst of laughter.

There are two kinds of Datang household registration, good and low. The price of a strong slave is about the same as the price of a cow. It will not exceed the price of a healthy horse at most. And how much money is sold for slaves is set by the government, which is divided into upper, middle and lower grades, according to the current price, that is, the price of four to ten times. In fact, Li Chengqian came here to prepare for recruitment, recruitment, and enrollment here, because in the early stage of entrepreneurship, human resources were the biggest investment, and these slaves did not have to pay anything else except for living welfare, and he was not prepared to treat these people badly.

Li Chengqian looked at it for a moment, and in addition to feeling a little cruel and pitiful, he quickly lost interest. took out a piece of paper and handed it to Changsun Chong.

"I'll leave it to you here, and I'm going to buy a thousand slaves in the next few days, regardless of age, birth, male or female, as long as there is a skill, and in addition, under the age of fifteen, both male and female. Here is the detailed scope and specific requirements I have listed, you look at it first, and then make a sale, and then take it to Fuxia Manor after you buy it, and I will wait for you there. ”

"How old do you want to be? Including the sick? The eldest grandson scratched his head, not knowing why.

"Yes, don't do anything but do it, that is, except for the waste, you want the rest, even if the old one can't walk, as long as he has a skill, including a man who just has a lot of strength. Also, even if you don't know how to weave linen, but only a woman who can give birth to a child, she does. In addition, you said that those who are sick are estimated to die before they reach the market, what are you afraid of? Well, yes, it's the money you pay, don't worry too much about the price. Remember to handle the contract with the steward, don't bully others, and don't leave a handle in the government when you make a contract. ”

"......, okay." The eldest grandson pouted, and said in his heart, I will pay for you to buy slaves, what are you not bullying people?

"Don't pretend to have eaten, if that's the case, the matter of buying slaves will always be handed over to you in the future." Li Chengqian said with a stiff face. The eldest grandson hurriedly grinned: "Whatever there is, Lang Jun go slowly, I will take care of it." ”

Li Chengqian waved his hand and walked out of the horse alone, and the four guards in the distance followed. "Go to the porcelain kiln." He gave the order, and then got into the carriage that had long been parked on the side of the road.

Outside the door of the porcelain kiln, Tao Yuan was waiting there early, and when he saw the carriage coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute, Li Chengqian smiled and said: "Don't be polite, take me to see." ”

That's right, Tao Yuan was asked by Li Chengqian, because of Li Chengqian's whimsy, he had never seen or heard of it, and now he admired the young prince and threw himself to the ground, hurriedly moving forward, leading this one to introduce while walking.

Look at the busy craftsmen and the rough porcelain of various shapes. Li Chengqian sighed in his heart, "The ancient ceramic industry was indeed developed, no wonder it was famous overseas." ”

Li Chengqian nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yuanzheng, you did a good job, I'll give you five tasks." First, do not discard the carbon ash after firing porcelain, dispose of it according to the method I said, encapsulate and transport. Second, in addition to porcelain clay, clay. I also want to purchase quartz sand in large quantities, ordinary bluestone, limestone, gypsum, lead ore, borax, stone alkali (trona), saltpeter, etc., and the specific types and quantities that need to be bought are listed on paper. Third, in addition to continuing the original firing, according to the method on my paper, try to fire these I listed, in which the temperature and heat can be considered and recorded. Fourth, according to the method on my paper, prepare the things that have been burned out and make a record. Fifth, find a fine craftsman to make clay clay characters, treat them according to the method, and if you have the ability, you can make a slight improvement. After thinking for a moment, he continued: "In addition, all the craftsmen who work in the three porcelain kilns will be rewarded, each of them will be rewarded with a thousand yuan, and later you will send someone to the account to withdraw the required expenses, if there is not enough manpower, you can transfer people from the manor at any time, and the wages of the other people will be increased by 10%. ”

After that, he took out a stack of papers and handed it to Tao Yuanzheng.
