Chapter 108: President Lin's Mobilization Meeting
Jiang Jinyu insisted on going to Qingcheng Mountain, Lin Shaoxuan's persuasion was fruitless, and he was really bored in his heart, but he refused to say what he was going to do, so he had to make up his mind in his heart that he would never let him go alone, and he must accompany him if he wanted to go.
Jiang Jinyu had made up his mind in his heart, he really had a reason to go, even if he saw that Lin Shaoxuan was unhappy, he couldn't explain it. Both of them were a little sullen this night, even if Xiao Ling'er was on the side to relieve their boredom, it would have no effect.
"Yulang, you rest here, I'll go and see the workers in the workshop and come back."
Summer is coming, the weather is hot, the craftsmen work during the day, and if they don't rest well at night, it will affect the efficiency of the day, and he must go and see.
"Go ahead, I'll be on my own for a while." Jiang Jinyu ordered Qin'er to move the bamboo chair to the courtyard to sit, and it was not sticky at all.
Alas, Lin Shaoxuan sighed secretly, and took Fu Bo to the residential area behind the workshop sullenly. This is the first time that the two have had a disagreement since they met, Lin Shaoxuan was obedient to him and refused to disobey him, for fear of making him unhappy. However, going to Qingcheng Mountain alone is such a dangerous thing, how can he rest assured!
"Childe, we're here." It wasn't until Fu Bo reminded him that Lin Shaoxuan came back to his senses.
The small courtyard in front of me is different from when it was first built, and a pergola is built in front of the hut, and some colored lights are hung, which looks very festive.
The original design was reasonable, and more than 20 houses were built in the residential area, enough for the workers to live. A few days ago, the mountain was blown up, and there were many stones, so the workers pulled some back to spread the yard, and after dinner, everyone poured the ground with well water, and was sitting in the courtyard to enjoy the cool and chat.
"Sir, why are you here!" It was still Liu Tianbao's sharp eyes, and when he saw the two of them at a glance, he quickly stood up and gave up the bamboo chair he was sitting on.
"Let's take a look at everyone." Lin Shaoxuan beckoned everyone to sit down, seeing that they were not very comfortable in front of him one by one, so he simply untied his coat, opened his shirt and shook it up.
"How's it going, it's hot, do you sleep well at night?"
"It's okay, Lao Zhutou will make a cool couch, and we have made it all, and a few of our rough old men will sleep in the yard at night, and it will be very cool!" When a craftsman saw that he was very kind, he had the courage to reply.
"Oh, who is Lao Zhu?"
An old man in his fifties saw him ask, and quickly stood up: "Master, the villain is." ”
"You also made the bamboo utensils in my stone house?"
"Yes, it's all a little bit of the villain's heart, and I hope the master won't dislike it." Lao Zhu listened to him and replied cautiously.
"How can you dislike it, the craftsmanship is very ingenious, I like it very much. Thank you! ”
Hearing Lin Shaoxuan say thank you to him, Lao Zhu waved his hand again and again and said that he didn't dare to be.
"Master, you're not going to torture him!" Liu Tianbao interjected on the side, "If our families didn't have a master, they wouldn't know where to live now, maybe their wives would have been separated a long time ago." Sir, you are our great benefactor, and the little ones are just doing this with little care. ”
"Don't underestimate the craftsmen, if there are no craftsmen like you, what do you wear and what do you use? Do you still go to live in a grass hut and sleep on a stone bed? It is with the development of handicrafts that society is progressing and everyone can live more comfortably. ”
President Lin is about to give a speech to boost morale, everyone applauds!
When several craftsmen heard him say this, they were all moved to tears. It's not easy, because they were born in a craftsman family, they have to learn crafts since they were young, and they can't study the imperial examination, and they have always thought that they are inferior.
"Master, we don't know anything else, we know to work hard to repay the master's great kindness." Liu Tianbao, as the department manager, was the first to speak to show his loyalty.
"Yes, if there was no master, our wives would have been separated a long time ago, and now we don't know where to suffer, and the master has the grace of reinvention for us!"
"Yes, we can live such a good life now, all thanks to the grace of the lord!"
Some of the brave workers also thanked them, but they were telling the truth. I think how sad they were when they were sold into slavery by the officials, but I didn't expect that after following the master, the life was much better than when they were in the construction department before, how could the big guys not be grateful?
"What kind of grace, you help me work, I rely on you to make money, in the final analysis, you still support me, we are mutually beneficial." Lin Shaoxuan came from later generations, and he really couldn't accept their servile thinking, so he accidentally told the truth.
How could the poor craftsmen know that he was telling the truth, but when the old man was approachable, he became more enthusiastic about him, and a few female workers hid at home and heard his words, and they were also moved, and they had the courage to send some of the gadgets they usually made.
"Ouch, this little doll is so beautiful, who made it?" Lin Shaoxuan piled up a lot of things in front of him at once, all of which were made by the craftsmen themselves, and what could be sent to him was naturally the best of the best, which dazzled his eyes.
At this time, what he was holding in his hand was a one-foot-tall wooden figure, which was really exquisitely made, with a head and face made of ash painted like a flower dan, a wig, and a costume made of paper silk, which looked more delicate and cute than some Barbie dolls.
"Back to the master, it's the slave who is playing." A little girl stood out from behind the crowd, looking only fifteen or sixteen years old, standing cramped and restless with her head bowed, twisting her handkerchief in both hands, not daring to even look at him.
"This is Xiaofu, the child of Li Yue'e's family." Liu Tianbao hurriedly introduced on the side.
"Oh, Xiaofu, well, what a good boy with a clever mind!" Lin Shaoxuan had forgotten that he was only twenty at this time, so he praised others in an old-fashioned manner, and took out a small golden cake to reward her, and then went to see other gadgets.
After all, it was the people who came out of the construction department, and it was really condescending for Lin Shaoxuan to ask them to steam the flower dew, look at what was in front of him! The pen holder of the root carving is not unusual, as well as the food box made of bamboo silk, the rockery of the gravel pile, the small screen embroidered on both sides, and the peony bonsai made of silk are almost real, and Lin Shaoxuan's heart is full of joy.
"I didn't expect that we still have a dragon and a crouching tiger here!" Lin Shaoxuan was very happy, this is all wealth! Although it is not as profitable as perfume, it is better than a long stream of water.
Lin Shaoxuan was happy, and asked Fu Bo to bring paper and pencils, and registered the specialties of these craftsmen one by one, even if they didn't need it now, they would never be idle when they were busy for a while.
When the workers saw that he was in high spirits, they were all happy to think about what else they would do. Didn't you see that the master just rewarded Xiaofu with a golden cake as big? The lord loves these gadgets.
"I can cut paper." "I know how to weave." "I can make silk flowers."
Lin Shaoxuan saw that everyone was actively signing up, and sat on the side and smiled.
"Anyway, our workshop is not busy, in the future, everyone will take turns off every seven days, and those who rest can do what they like."
"Fu Bo, you set aside two hundred taels of silver to buy tools and materials for everyone."
"Tianbao, you tidy up a house and put the things that everyone has made. I come to see it once a month, and I get a reward for what I do. ”
When everyone saw that they could rest, make some of their favorite gadgets and rewards, they all cheered, and they were even more satisfied with Master Lin.
"Also, Tianbao, wait a minute, find a few who can carve, cut, and embroider, and ask them to make me a few more dolls with Xiaofu. Use the best wood, the joints should be moved, the clothes and jewelry should be delicate, and I should be made like this. ”
Lin Shaoxuan muttered in Liu Tianbao's ear for a long time, Liu Tianbao puffed out his eyes in shock and nodded again and again, but he couldn't stop complaining in his heart.
Lin Shaoxuan's brain was full of ideas, and he tossed something new, let's not talk about it first, just say that he chatted with everyone until the middle of the month, and then left happily, and reconsidered the arrangements of the workers in his heart. These people are all leaders in the handicraft industry, and it is still necessary to find a way to make them give full play to their specialties and drive the economic development of Baishi Villa.
Although the profiteering industry is profitable, it is also relatively risky, and in addition to Silver Mirror Perfume, he must also open up other ways to make money.
This night, Lin Shaoxuan's mind was all about business, and he forgot to care about Jiang Jinyu's abnormality, and when Jinyu saw him come back, he didn't mention going to Qingcheng again, so he slept quietly.
"Whoever realizes the big dream first, I know it in my life. The grass hall sleeps enough in spring, and the day outside the window is late. Lin Shaoxuan woke up in the morning, the sun had already sunburned his buttocks, he was not embarrassed at all, and actually chanted a poem.
"Awake? Do you want to get out of bed? Jiang Jinyu didn't wait for him today, she had already washed up and was sitting in front of the window reading.
Lin Shaoxuan woke up, he couldn't kiss and touch the man, he felt very twisted, and he felt even more uncomfortable when he saw that he was sitting in the sun with a scroll in his hand, and he had become an immortal with his own light source.
"Yulang, my neck is twisted, you help me rub it."
"My legs are numb, you can help me pinch them."
Jiang Jinyu shook his head and put down the book, walked to the bed to help him rub his shoulders and legs, and helped him get his clothes, so that the old man got dressed and got out of bed satisfied.
"Don't read books all the time, hurt your eyes. Wait for you to rest at home, I'll go to the mountains and tidy up again, and let's move over after lunch, okay?" Lin Shaoxuan sat and asked for advice while letting him help pull his hair. Last night, in order to go to Qingcheng, both of them were a little unhappy, Lin Shaoxuan wanted to coax him well, it was best to make him have fun and forget to mention Qingcheng Mountain again.
"It's fine."
Seeing Jinyu nodding meekly, Lin Shaoxuan felt a lot more comfortable, and after breakfast, regardless of Ling'er's opinion, he forcibly stuffed her to Xiaoya, and went to the mountains with Caiqing.
The countryman got up early, and many people had already gone to the stone house at this time, cleaning the courtyard for him and decorating the new house. Lin Shaoxuan is very particular about the layout of this small courtyard, as soon as he enters the courtyard gate, there is a row of tall flower stands, transplanted from the mountains to the sky, the flowers bloom brilliantly, sprinkled all the way to shade.
Walking along the trellis, until you walk to the front of the hall, there is shade from trees, so that people can't bask in the sun, but they can blow a cool breeze. The bluestone paving in the courtyard, there are many flower pots on both sides of the road, planting all kinds of flowers, at this time it is blooming brightly, and there are a few small couches made of bamboo under the corridor, and there are purple sand tea sets on a few places.
"You go on, I'll take a look around first." Lin Shaoxuan waved his hand to everyone, walked into the stone house by himself, and immediately felt very cool. The stone house is high and cool, the top and bottom are elevated, and the bluestone floor is paved, and people in the house seem to have walked into the spring from midsummer.
Lin Shaoxuan stayed in the mountain until noon, everything he could think of was ready, and he watched everyone arrange it according to what he said, and then he went down the mountain to go back satisfied.
It's really a good place to hide in the golden house, and there is no one in the mountains tonight, so he must take action.
