NO.266 THAUMATURGY IS USEFUL
In the event of a famine, the Kuai family will also open a warehouse to release grain, help the people, and gain a good reputation, but recently Jingxiang and Xichuan are all in good weather, Kuai Yue can't figure out why Pang Shanmin is at this time, and the family is ordered to help the people.
"In the past two years, the people in Jingnan have been rich, and at this time, the people will benefit, and if the mountain people want to make public opinion, they will get twice the result with half the effort!" Kuai Yue said, seeing that the smile on Pang Shanmin's face did not decrease, he hurriedly said: "Shanmin, it's not that the Kuai family doesn't give up this little money, but ......."
Kuai Yue didn't have time to continue, but Pang Shanmin smiled and said: "Yidu Gong wants to go wrong, Pang Mou does not want to ask for money and food for the people, but wants to sell looms to the Jingxiang family, the same family, Pang Mou does not want to make more money from the family, ten looms, how about changing a waterwheel?" ”
"What is a waterwheel?" Kuai Yue heard this, confused, Pang Shanmin thought that the waterwheel model had not been sent to the Kuai family, and at that moment Kuai Yue went out of the Taishou Mansion, and rushed to the bamboo forest workshop with the car, after arriving at the workshop, Kuai Yue saw that Huang Chengyan was also in the workshop, and hurriedly stopped to give a salute.
Huang Chengyan ignored it, staring at the clay pot in front of him with burning eyes, looking at the indigo liquid in the clay pot, and said nothing.
Kuai Yue was speechless for a while, but Pang Shanmin smiled and said: "Don't be surprised by the Duke of Xenodu, when the master studied thaumaturgy, it has always been like this, how about the Duke of Xenodu and the next to watch the waterwheel first, and then come back to talk to the teacher?" ”
Kuai Yue nodded when he heard this, and the two walked into the house, Pang Shanmin explained the waterwheel model on the table to Kuai Yue, folk farming, drawing water for irrigation is a big deal, that is, between the families, and most of them are for the diversion of water, entangled with each other, when Kuai Yue learned that this small thing is so useful, his eyes lit up and said: "Mountain people...... Can this waterwheel be awarded to the Maison? ”
"The Kuai family has a big business, and they still want to compete with the people?" Pang Shanmin said, but Kuai Yue said: "It's not because of the family business, that is, the family also has to pay taxes, and the family collects more grain, and when you become a general in the future, you will also have money and food to use......
Pang Shanmin nodded when he heard this, and said: "This loom and waterwheel can all be imitated, and after the people use it, the family can also learn to make it." ”
Kuai Yue was overjoyed when he heard this, but saw Pang Shanmin and said with a smile: "It's just that a few months later, I'm afraid that the Duke of Heterodu will not be so happy, the ability of the loom, the Duke of Heterodu has seen it, Pang Mou thinks that the Duke of Heterodu should make plans as soon as possible, outside of Jingxiang, to collect the displaced people, otherwise once the cloth is produced, the hands of the Kuai family are not enough." ”
"Why should the mountain people worry about this, they are domestic servants, and there are hundreds of people available in my Kuai family!" Kuai Yue said, but Pang Shanmin smiled and said: "Hundreds of people operate hundreds of looms, can they produce cloth?" If two people have a machine, with the strength of thousands of people, operate 500 looms, Kuaijia cloth and silk, can be endless! ”
When Kuai Yue heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed, and said: "The mountain people really have a way to make money, and this use of a loom is just like this......"
"You and I are good friends, when the loom is delivered to the Kuai family, Pang also gave you the Kuai family, several craftsmen, if the loom is damaged, it can also be repaired." Pang Shanmin said, Yin Kuai Yue walked out of the house, and said to Kuai Yue: "As for this waterwheel, according to Pang Mou's meaning, I don't know what the different degrees think?" ”
"It is beneficial to the people of the family, and Kuai should promote the people's will in the mountains!" Kuai Yue said, seeing that Huang Chengyan had come back to his senses, he stepped forward and said, "I have seen Chengyan Gong in the other degree." ”
Huang Chengyan smiled when he heard this: "It turns out that the other degree is coming, I don't know what happened when the different degree is here?" ”
"Teacher, the Duke of Xenodu has been here for some time, and he has negotiated a deal with Pang!" Pang Shanmin smiled when he heard this: "It's just that I saw the teacher's mind just now, and the dye in the basin is on it, so I didn't bother." ”
"You kid, tell the old man, where does this dye come from?" Huang Chengyan said, Pang Shanmin thought for a moment and said: "The blue is erected in the pit, put into the water, and then pressed with wood and stone, so that the blue grass is all soaked in water, one night when it is hot, two nights when it is cold, according to the different soaking time, the color of the dye obtained is also different......
After that, seeing that Huang Chengyan wanted to see the dye in the pot again, he heard Pang Shanmin laugh and said: "After this incident, the mountain people should have told the teacher that it is rare for the workshop to come now, and the transaction has been negotiated, the teacher should rest for a while, don't be disturbed by such mundane things again!" ”
"Vulgar things? This is thaumaturgy! Huang Chengyan glanced at Pang Shanmin when he heard this, and said: "But the different degree is rare to be here, today I will relax a little, the old man wants to let the different degree go to see the waterwheel, I don't know what the mountain people think?" ”
Hearing this, Kuai Yue smiled, and said to Huang Chengyan: "Mr. Huang, when you look at the dye, Kuai has already seen the waterwheel, and now the spring ploughing is imminent, since the waterwheel has a great effect on the people's farming, Kuai should exercise the decree to make Jingxiang build more waterwheels for the convenience of the people." ”
"After returning home, Pang handed over the map to the different degree of the public, Pang visited the surrounding areas of Changsha a month ago, and has been in the villages and counties, and selected the address of the suitable waterwheel, which can be used as a reference, as for the outside of Changsha, it is necessary to work for the different degree to handle this matter...... "Pang Shanmin said, Kuai Yue restrained his smile and nodded seriously.
The three of them went out of the workshop together, Pang Shanmin led Kuai Yue and Huang Chengyan's family line, and wanted to set up a banquet to entertain the two, now the mind has been, with the ability of the two Kuai, maybe it will not take much time, Jingxiang people can taste the convenience of the waterwheel, although this year's spring ploughing, the waterwheel is difficult to fully popularize, but after the people taste the sweetness, stay in the coming year, I am afraid that even the people of Xichuan, you can also know that this thing is magical, Jingxiang, Xichuan two counties are the land of grain production in the Han Dynasty, if there are instruments to complement each other, I am afraid that it will be within a few years, Pang Shanmin no longer has to worry about the grain and grass used for the expedition.
The people in the house prepared the meal, Kuai Yue coincided with the meeting, and mentioned the matter of this dye, but Pang Shanmin did not respond, and gave the dye skill to the family.
It is not that Pang Shanmin is stingy, but now the cloth dyeing has not been made in the past people's homes, if the Kuai family has a loom, the cloth is innumerable, if you want to dye, and then build a workshop, not only takes a long time, the cost is also quite large, Pang Shanmin told Kuai Yue, that is, the business, but also be cautious, first use a large number of cloth to explore the market for sale, and then when dyeing, it is also time.
Kuai Yue heard this, although he was greedy for dye thaumaturgy, but he also understood that what Pang Shanmin said was reasonable, if he acted rashly, once something happened, the gains outweighed the losses, thinking of this, Kuai Yue said to Pang Shanmin: "If this large amount of cloth is made, the price of Jingxiang cloth will definitely fall, can the mountain people think of a way, and my Kuai family, contact Jiangdong Sun Quan, then Jiangdong is rich, if you trade with it, my Kuai family can get a lot of money." ”
"What's so difficult about this, Pang Mou was going to make that Jiangdong money." Speaking of this, Pang Shanmin nodded and smiled: "If the Duke of Heteroduki doesn't mention it, Pang almost forgets, then Jiangdong Lusu still owes Pang a lot of money and food!" ”
