After counting, this kiln celadon tea cup, a total of 558 pieces have reached the qualification, and 468 pieces have reached the level of high-quality products, which can be said to be the most high-quality porcelain in the history of the official kiln of the Xiu Nei Division.

Whether it was the stewards or the potters, they all thought that it was the blessing of the ancestors and gods that allowed them to escape, and they could finally make a difference. However, what about next time? Is there any luck that can be so good? After all, the yield rate of the official kiln of the Shunai Division is getting lower and lower, and this is a trend that no one can change.

Only Li Xiang knows that this time it was he who changed everyone's fate, of course, this can also be attributed to the gods, because Li Xiang crossed over, isn't this the will of heaven?

The happiest person is Li Kang, that Liu Xuan has always wanted to press him, and always stabbed him in the back, but fortunately, he slapped Liu Xuan with a big mouth this time, see if Liu Xuan will dare to come to trouble in the future? Li Kang estimated that after this time, Liu Xuan should have to restrain a lot, after all, Liu Xuan was also responsible for supervising the making of porcelain, if the firing task he was responsible for could not be completed, then Liu Xuan would not be able to escape the fate of dismissal. Now the yield of the official kiln has further declined, which is something that everyone is very worried about, but fortunately, Li Kang knows that his son has a way to solve the problem, so he is very happy today.

On the way home, Li Xiang looked at the prosperous Lin'an City and said to Li Kang: "Father, it's time for our family to find two subordinates, we have to spend our limited energy and time where we need it most, instead of doing housework ourselves." What do you think? ”

Li Kang thought for a while and said, "Xiang'er, you're right! In the past, I drilled the horns of the bull for my father, thinking that this would be the most honest official, but now it seems that being a father is not as clear as you think. Well, in two days as a father, I will go to two servants, and it is better to find you a companion to study, so that I can help you pass the examination. ”

Li Xiang smiled and said, "Father, you are really thoughtful. ”

The streets are full of people. The shouts of the hawkers were mixed with the sound of the "wheel" of the carriage running over the ground as it walked. At this time, it is already autumn. The howling wind made the flags of the shops on the street "rattle".

When Li Kang's father and son drove to a street corner, they found that there were many people in front of them, and the road was almost blocked.

Li Xiang jumped out of the carriage and plunged into the crowd, and found two women kneeling on the ground, dressed in linen and wearing filial piety, which seemed a little out of place with this lively scene. One of them was a middle-aged woman in her forties, and the other was a girl in her twenties, the girl was dressed in a white cloth robe and a coarse linen hat, and Li Xiang couldn't see her clearly for a while. She hung her head and placed in front of her a corpse covered with a white cloth, presumably a relative of the two women.

Selling yourself to bury your father? Li Xiang feels that this plot is a little familiar, and it has this plot in many costume TV series. But it seems that these two women should be mother and daughter, and the corpse covered with white cloth on the ground should be the girl's father. It seems quite pitiful, in this era, maybe there are many stories like this, after all, the north is often invaded, and many people will flee, if they are sick and have no money for treatment, then there will be a lot of family ruin?

Do you want to buy these two poor women and go back to be the next people? Li Xiang's sympathy was also hooked, but these two people were of unknown origin, and they were a little troublesome.

Before the Song Dynasty, domestic servants were domestic slaves, the private property of the head of the house, and the head of the house could dispose of it at will, but in the Song Dynasty, the domestic servants were hired. The imperial court has issued an explicit decree that the servants hired are servants rather than slaves. A maid is a profession, and although his status is low, it is completely different from a slave. Servants have greater personal rights than slaves, and they can come and go if they don't, as long as you have the ability, you can take the imperial examination, you can be an official, and you don't care about your experience as a servant. Although the domestic servant is still not comparable to the modern employed, it is a world away from the domestic slaves of the past.

Li Xiang felt that it was better to ask his father's opinion, after all, these two are women, if they arrive at home, they can only do some housework, and it is estimated that they will not be able to do anything like taking care of accounts, but it is enough to find another housekeeper.

Li Xiang returned to the carriage and said to Li Kang: "Father, there is a mother and daughter in front of them who are selling their bodies and burying their relatives, it looks quite pitiful, if it is suitable, why don't you buy them!" ”

Li Kang is also a person with a flood of sympathy, he is very good to his subordinates in plain life, and he can't see this kind of thing, he has to recruit people anyway, if there is nothing wrong with these two people, they can be recruited back, laundry and cooking or something, just right.

Li Kang thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll go with you for my father." ”

With that, father and son came to the front of the crowd.

At this time, suddenly several big men walked towards the two women menacingly. One of the leading men threw a few silver ingots to the ground, pulled the woman up, and shouted: "My master has bought you, come back with us!" ”

The middle-aged woman lowered her eyebrows and asked smoothly: "The little woman dares to ask, may I ask who is the kind-hearted person of your master?" ”

The big man laughed and said proudly: "The master of my family is the nephew of the current prime minister Ding Xiangguo, the young eunuch of the Shaofu Ding Mengzhao. ”

When the two women heard this, they were all shocked, obviously this Ding Mengzhao did not have a good reputation. The surrounding crowd was also noisy, and Li Kang couldn't help but look nervous, he wanted to recruit these two poor women back to be subordinates, but he didn't expect to let people take the lead, and that person was also the nephew of Ding Daquan, the prime minister who leaned towards the government and the opposition, so it was not easy to do it now.

Ding Daquan looks like a blue ghost, he is treacherous, cunning, vicious and greedy, and people at the time called him "Ding Blue Ghost". He married a maid of a relative in order to cling to the top of the hierarchy. Later, he relied on Feng Ying Yan Guifei, eunuch Lu Yunsheng, Dong Songchen and others, and gradually occupied important positions and was promoted to serve as a servant and a waiter. Ding Daquan himself is incorruptible and shameful, greedy for money and lustful, he hired a wife for his son, and when he saw his daughter-in-law's appearance, he took it as his wife, which was shameful to the world. All in all, this Ding Daquan is not a good person, his nephew Ding Mengzhao is also a good person, and the young eunuch of the Shaofu is still a sixth-grade official, compared to Li Kang, a prisoner from the eighth grade, the official rank is more than one level higher.

As soon as the middle-aged woman heard the name, she immediately shook her head and said, "No, my mother and daughter don't dare!" Please go back! ”

"Bold! Dare to refuse my master, don't you want to live?! Several big men rushed up together, making a gesture to pull the two away, "No matter what, my master has paid you, and you must go back with us!" ”

"I don't want it!" The two women shouted loudly. Helplessly, they couldn't help but be weak, how could they resist the brute force of a few big men, and the filial piety hat on the girl's head slipped off under the push and push, revealing her delicate face.

"Let them go!" The indifferent voice makes people shudder.
