"Come, Master Gu, you have two hats, not only to be responsible for the operation of the Moyun study, but also to straighten out the typesetting work in Chang'an, often have a home that can't be returned, these years have worked hard, come, Liu will give you a cup." Liu Yuan raised his wine glass as he spoke.

The old master Gu's face was red, he didn't expect Liu Yuan to pour him wine in person, for himself, Liu Yuan is not only his own owner, but also a general of the dynasty, a high-ranking official of the fourth grade, the viscount of the founding county, a hot hero in the Tang Dynasty, the biggest deal with in the past is a head catcher or something like that, this is too honorable, the old master Gu was flattered, his face was red with excitement, he quickly stood up, and his speech was a little unfavorable: "No, no, don't dare, Dongdongjia, the little He De may, actually work for you." ”

"You're welcome, it's all family, come, have a drink."

"Xie Dongjia, the little ones will do it first as respect." Under the excitement of the old master, he didn't know what to say, so he simply didn't say anything, and took the lead in drinking the wine.

Liu Yuan also drank it all, then patted him on the shoulder to show encouragement, and then walked up to Lao Zheng Tou with the wine jug.

"Old Zheng Tou."

"Hey, the owner, the little one is here." When Liu Yuan came over, Lao Zheng Tou had already stood up in advance, his waist bent slightly, and his face was full of excitement.

Liu Yuan just wanted to bend down to pour wine for him, but he didn't expect him to be a clever character, so he immediately picked up his wine glass, held it with both hands, and put it in front of him, so that Liu Yuan could pour the wine without bending down, and after pouring a full glass of wine, Liu Yuan also said with some feelings: "Zhong Liu began to have his own career, here you and Master Gu were the first to follow me, maybe in the eyes of many people, your position is dispensable, but the work has been smooth for several years, and your credit is indispensable." It's all because you have arranged and managed it well, and there has been no mistake in the past few years, these Liu Mou are all in his eyes, and he should make a big contribution here, come, I salute you. ”

The eyes of the "owner" old Zheng Tou were red: "The owner has always served the small, and the small one has nothing to repay, and he is willing to serve the owner for the work of dogs and horses." ”

A small craftsman can be put to good use and be valued. To be able to get a person who appreciates himself and can treat him well, it can be said that Sansheng is lucky, and now with Liu Yuan's affirmation, Lao Zheng Tou feels at the moment that it is because of the green smoke from his ancestral tomb. It is no exaggeration to say that it was Liu Yuan who let him die at this moment. He was willing, too.

"Come on. You have worked hard all these years, and Liu will give you a cup. Liu Yuan said with a smile.

"Don't dare" Lao Zheng Tou said solemnly: "The owner, my old Zheng Tou said here, as long as the owner doesn't drive away, my old Zheng Tou will die in the workshop, and I will make cattle and horses for the owner in this life." ”

After speaking. Drinking all the wine in the cup in one go, because he was in a hurry, he choked twice, Liu Yuan personally stroked his back and said, "Old Zheng Tou." But you have to take care of your body, the good days are still long, what do you do cows and horses, don't say these words in the future, you are all meritorious people in Liufu, you can rest assured, the life and death in the future, Liu Fu has arranged for you, if you have time, you can train new people, don't do everything yourself, now the days are better, it's time to enjoy the blessings. ”

"The owner is very kind, and the small ones are grateful" Lao Zheng shook his head for a moment, and was quickly moved, not only he was moved, but also Jin Qiaoqiao and Gong Sheng.

The owner gave enough wages and worked hard, which is a matter of course, not to mention that Liu Yuan's treatment is extremely generous, not only does he have no shelf on weekdays, he trusts himself very much, and he also gives gifts every holiday, and he has a very deep background, and there can be a lot less human harassment on weekdays, that's it, Liu Yuan is still so polite, treat each other politely, everyone is very moved, and they can't wait to take out their hearts immediately to show their sincerity.

After saluting Old Master Gu and Old Zheng Tou, Liu Daguan toasted Jin Qiaoqiao and Gong Sheng respectively, and said a lot of ambiguous words, which moved everyone to a great uproar.

After the toast, everyone laughed while talking, and talked very happily, Liu Yuan also asked what requirements and difficulties there were one by one, and behaved quite decently, toasting frequently during the banquet, pushing the cup and changing the lamp, and waiting for the dishes and chopsticks that the next person cleaned up, they all ate with round bellies, especially the greedy old Zheng Tou, who couldn't stand up quickly.

First, the owner was enthusiastic, and secondly, those dishes were full of color and flavor, and everyone ate such a good thing for the first time, and the more they ate, the more Jin Qiaoqiao hiccuped after eating.

After chatting for a while, the clever Jin Qiaoqiao saw that several ladies were a little sleepy, so he stood up, smiled at Liu Yuan, and said loudly: "The owner, you are full of wine and food, there is something in the store, and the slave family asks to retire first." ”

"That's right, the owner, Gong is also going back to review the manuscript, and now it's time to retire."

Lao Zheng Tou and Old Master Gu also came back and asked Liu Yuan to resign.

After all, this is Liu's Mansion, and there are several ladies in the owner who are nobles, but they don't have time to spend too much time with themselves.

Liu Yuan stood up, smiled and said, "Everyone, wait a minute. ”

After speaking, in the curious eyes of everyone, Liu Yuan gently patted his palm, and soon, several subordinates came in with four trays covered with red cloths, lined up in front of everyone, Liu Yuan gently ripped off the silk pieces, and the room seemed to be a lot brighter all of a sudden, all of a slot of gold and silver, without waiting for everyone to ask, Liu Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, everyone take a copy." ”

"What does this mean, owner?" Jin Qiaoqiao said in surprise.

To make jewelry, sharp eyes and quick hands are the most basic essentials, Jin Qiaoqiao just glanced at it, and immediately guessed the number of silver taels on the tray: five hundred taels.

Each plate is five hundred taels, and four plates are two thousand taels.

Cui Mengyao said with a smile on the side: "This is the Xianggong sympathy for your daily efforts and hardships, and a little bit of a small gift, which can be regarded as a reward for your efforts in the past, so you don't have to be polite." ”

"That's too much." Lao Zheng couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva and said in a low voice.

A few hundred taels of silver, a glamorous Silla maid only sells ten taels of silver, fifty taels of silver can spend a good night with the best and most beautiful Oiran in the Qinglou, usually at the end of the year, how much will it be meaningful, ordinary guys are mostly silver beans, and more important people will have ingots of silver, and they can reward thirty or fifty taels, which is already very high, but Liu Yuan rewarded as much as five hundred taels at once, although he knew that the owner has always been bold, but Liu Yuan's handwriting still surprised everyone.

Gong Sheng hesitated for a moment, and also whispered: "Owner, this, this gift is too rich, and my subordinates dare not accept it." ”

Liu Yuan waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't say it, let you take it, these are what you deserve, work hard in the future, and earn more silver for Liu, this is enough, if you don't dare to take this bit of silver, it means that your ability is limited, and you will not dare to reuse you in the future." ”、

After a pause, Liu Yuan said arrogantly: "I hope that one day, everyone present can loudly ask Liu for more reward, what is five hundred taels, it is best to be five thousand taels, fifty thousand taels or even more, which also means that you will earn more for me." ”

Everyone hesitated for a moment, and the last one was Jin Qiaoqiao who took the lead in taking a plate of silver, saluted Liu Yuan, and said solemnly: "The slave family thanked the owner." ”

Jin Qiaoqiao has been conscientious since he entered the Jinyu family, and never dared to slack off, the account can be said to be "fat" to flow oil, and the money and silver handed over every year are not less than 100,000 taels, and the hard work is high, and the silver is naturally taken with peace of mind.

"Xie Dongjia, Gong must work harder." Gong Sheng saluted Liu Yuan and took a plate of silver.

Settled in Chang'an Daily, has been working day and night, tirelessly, in order to typeset selection, often pick the lights and fight at night, a "Chang'an Oiran" activity, on the profit of nearly 120,000 taels, although the silver is the most donated to the treasury, but the silver is deserved.

Lao Zheng Tou and Lao Gu Master hesitated, and both accepted Liu Yuan's kindness, they are Liu Yuan's "old ministers", they have been working hard, often eating and living in the printing house, no matter how difficult the task, I have never heard them complain, and there has never been any major mistakes and forks, in this regard, Liu Yuan's thousand taels of silver are worth the money.

After the four of them got the silver, Liu Yuan smiled and said: "With so much cash, it is not convenient to go on the road, and the housekeeper will order the guards to send you back in a while, oh, by the way, I have allocated another amount of silver to reward those workers, how to distribute it at that time, you can just look at it." ”

Everyone was grateful again, and then they left satisfied.

As soon as the four of them left, Du Sanniang said with some puzzlement: "Liu Yuan, these five hundred taels are too much, in fact, giving one hundred or dozens of taels is already a great favor." ”

"Yes, senior brother" Xiao Niang also nodded and agreed: "On weekdays, it is extremely generous to them, not to mention that they have signed a contract, and I am not afraid that they will change jobs, this time the reward is too much, I am afraid that they will be arrogant." ”

Cui Mengyao and Hu Xin also looked at Liu Yuan, in fact, they were surprised by Liu Yuan's generosity.

"This account is not calculated like this" Liu Yuan said confidently: "This silver can greatly improve their enthusiasm, so that they will work harder for us, five hundred taels, it sounds like a lot, but you think about it, the Jinyu family can make more than 100,000 taels of money in Liu's house every year, and Gong Sheng's activity, the profit of 120,000 taels, the importance of the Moyun Printing Factory, you also know that the Moyun Study and Chang'an Daily are supported by it, in general, this silver is still worth it." ”

Hu Xin glanced at Liu Yuan, and said with some envy: "Datang is really rich, alas"

Obviously, compared with the Tang Dynasty, the nomadic Tubo is indeed too poor, and compared with Chang'an, the most prosperous Luocheng city, it immediately fell behind, one in the sky and the other in the ground.

Liu Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this, ladies, I have news to tell you." (To be continued......)
