Chapter 194: A Fire on a Summer Night
Jia's third daughter-in-law, Li Hong'er, walked out of Su Ji and walked out with two pieces of cloth in her arms.
The common people Jia San was puzzled, "Didn't you sell it to Miss San?" How did you get it out? ”
Li Hong'er opened the cloth bag, "This is the third lady's reward, medium silk cloth, and said to make you a decent shirt." ”
"Making clothes?"
"Miss San said that your improved loom is very good, and the silk pattern woven is not only novel, but also has a moire pattern. This is the reward given to you by the third lady. ”
"Really?"
"Naturally, take it seriously."
Jia San fluttered, "Third Miss praised me again!" ”
"The third lady asked you to come here tomorrow, saying that she wanted to negotiate a deal with you, and asked for your skills."
Jia San felt that the whole person was floating in the clouds, and his feet were no longer on the ground.
"No, I'm not going home. Stay at my father-in-law's house tonight, and see the third lady early tomorrow morning. ”
In Su Jili, Su Lingyu touched some of the new cloth sent by Li Hong'er.
The housekeepers watched from the sidelines, "These lines are rare. ”
"It's kind of like a cloud in the sky."
"It's not quite like it, but if you change it, maybe it's even more like it."
Su Lingyu nodded, "We still need to continue to improve, and the improved machine can weave cloud patterns even more." Maybe the longevity pattern can also be weaved. ”
"Congratulations, Miss, you've found another good mechanic."
"In the future, there will be more people who will do business here!" The steward laughed.
Su Lingyu put away the new cloth, "Go get busy." It's confidential, don't say it to the outside world. ”
Sending the stewards away, she yawned and put the ledger up.
Put the handkerchief on the account, hold the account book in both hands, put your face down, lie on it, and sleep.
The new city lord Bao Xing has not yet arrived, and everything in the government has to be managed by Su Chong.
Su Zhong was very busy, and took his father to the government office to help deal with some chores.
Although my father doesn't know much about official things, he knows how to interact with people and can coax those who are restless.
In this way, Su Ji has no master on shifts, and Su Lingyu doesn't want her grandmother and mother to stay in Su Ji on a hot day.
She can only work hard with Kapok and take turns for a few more days.
It's a hot summer, a good night's sleep!
It's a waste of youth not to sleep.
Somewhere in Shangwu, Mechanic Li, who was once fired. Ask for a plate of kidney beans, braised pig's head meat, and a pot of wine.
Eating with relish, he said while eating: "Su Ji is not as good as before without me, although Su Ji is mainly reeling silk and spinning." But there is no shortage of cloth to make, because I made Su Ji's silk cloth better. ”
The man drinking tea on the side smiled, "Technician Li, don't say that." ”
"Just now, Su Ji came to someone and sold two silk cloths with cloud patterns. I heard that the man in that family used to be a carpenter and could repair looms. He figured out a way to weave moire, and Miss Su San was very rare, and directly rewarded a medium silk cloth. ”
"Medium silk! It's worth a lot of money. ”
Technician Li didn't believe it, "Hmph, do you think every carpenter can improve the loom?" If every carpenter could do the work, the wages of the tradesmen would not be so high. ”
"It's still good to be a technician Li, and if you leave Su Ji, you can get a higher salary. It's amazing. ”
Technician Li Heng raised his head and was very proud.
The man said, "Technician Li, you better go back and study the machinery well." If there is no new way, sooner or later he will be dismissed. ”
The man tilted his head and said to his friend on the side: "Master a craft, you can eat for a lifetime." But that's not the case in Su Kee. Su Ji saw that you had a craft, so he recruited you into the door, and if someone from his family stole your mobile phone, he would find an excuse to dismiss you. ”
"In this way, I don't have to spend a lot of money to support you, and I have learned your skills. How wonderful! ”
Technician Li slapped the table, "You are not allowed to say that." ”
"That's true, you see. If you are irreplaceable, you are very important, will Su Ji still dismiss you? Will it throw you out? ”
"It must be your skill in renovating the silk reeling machine that was learned by those boys raised by Su Ji. If you are useless, I will throw you out. ”
"I thought you were so majestic, it turned out that Su Ji didn't want it, and it was thrown out. Hahaha. ”
The little shopkeeper of the tea stall hurriedly stepped forward to speak, "Technician Li, don't listen to them." They are red-eyed, and they are blushing at you. Deliberately saying sour things. ”
The little shopkeeper went and said to the men, "Listen to your accent, not locals." You don't know, the third lady is a good person at the top and won't do these things. ”
"I used to be a good person, but not anymore. When the appetite grows, people are different. The man took out the nine pennies and slapped it on the table.
said jokingly: "It's not good to plant the land and get seeds, and come to weave cloth, this is to get more benefits." ”
The little shopkeeper accepted the money, turned to Technician Li and said, "Don't listen to them, I don't know who sent it to discredit the third lady." ”
"Am I one of those people who have no conscience?" Technician Li snorted coldly.
Technician Li took a picture of the copper plate and left with a black face.
The shopkeeper of the tea stall shook his head to collect money, not to mention the quality of the guests.
On summer nights, there are not only hot mosquitoes, but also many mosquitoes.
Su Ji's guards brought special incense sticks.
The incense strips were filled with a lot of mosquito-repellent herb residue, and the smell was very bad in the air.
"Smack."
"Damn mosquitoes. You see, it sucked a bubble of blood from me. ”
"The mosquito will bite you, but not me."
"Let's go, it's time to patrol outside."
"Well, take a walk around and go back to sleep."
The patrol took the sticks, walked out of the foot house, and walked around the workshop.
I hadn't gone far when I heard a gong beating outside.
"It's water, it's water, come and put out the fire!"
"Gone water, walked ...... water"
The patrol men ran, picked up the wooden barrel in the corner, ran to the water tank, scooped up a bucket of water and rushed it out.
The small foot shop not far from Su Ji had thick smoke billowing and some sparks coming out.
The whole street ran out, carrying buckets and basins and splashing water to put out the fire.
The flames that had just risen were quickly extinguished, and before they could rejoice.
A small child pointed to Su Ji's workshop, "Fire, fire, there's a fire over there." ”
The patrol team was shocked, "Fight the fire, put out the fire." ”
"The fire is rising, where can I save it?"
The captain lifted the bucket and commanded the team to say, "You two go and tread the water wheel." A few of you, go and bang the gong and wake up the people in Shangwu, and you will say that you are gone. Call them to help put out the fire. ”
"You, go and tell the third lady that the workshop is on fire."
Su Ji built a large pool to let water flow into the workshop from a high place and teach it to be used in various areas.
When the patrol ran to the edge of the pool to step on the waterwheel and fill the pool, they found that the waterwheel had been cut down. A hole was also dug in the pool, and the water flowed outward.
The man beat his legs with both hands and shouted sadly, "What can I do about this? ”
"I don't care so much, the waterwheel can still be used to lift the waterwheel and fill it with water. As long as the water can get inside, it won't burn much. ”
