I haven't been to the rouge factory in the daytime for a long time, and I'm busy, so Mingyi came to take a look. It's still as orderly as ever, the air is full of the rich aroma of flowers when they are crushed, Mingyi is secretly glad that he has crossed over to inherit the rouge workshop, not to mention anything else, even if he changes the paper mill and the dyeing workshop, the smell is not so pleasant.

Lian Shan took her to look around, and Mingyi was more pleased to see that most of these female workers were old faces, and only a few more people were invited. Compared with the haggard and sad faces when they first came, these female workers are obviously in a much better state, with a relaxed look on their faces and good blood. They all fled from the war, the young and delicate ones had already been selected to be maids, and the good ones with good cooking skills also had a place to go, and the rest did not have any skills and passed the age, and it was a great luck to find such an errand.

Mingyi prefers to use these thirty or forty-year-old female workers, they know the hardships of making a living outside, and they have no idea of relying on men to turn over, especially cherish the opportunity they get. Ming Yi inquired about Lianshan, and half of the female workers had families living outside the city, or rented old houses of farmers together, or found some abandoned houses and temples to live in. Those who can work are all set up to find work, and those who can't find it are helping to farm the land in the farmers' homes and change their food. Others have been separated from their loved ones or have lost their families.

Mingyi's heart was heavy, and he explained to Lianshan that if there are family members outside the city, they will take turns to take three days off every half month to reunite with their families. If there is no family or reason, decide whether to take leave or not. Female workers are paid on a daily basis, and they can work for a few more days if they want to earn more. And asked him to ask the female workers who were separated from their relatives, sort out the information on the search for relatives, and she went to Liu Enchao together, he was in charge of household registration, and he could open the door of convenience.

After walking around, I didn't see the four girls in the east, west, north and south, and after asking, I realized that Lin Zhao was here, and they watched Lin Zhao draw in the Jiye Building.

Ming Yi smiled helplessly, these four girls, the last time they saw Lin Zhao, they were still twisting and pinching, and they didn't follow him to draw. When he looked at his portrait, he rejoiced, and regarded him as a treasure again. Lin Zhao's funny and amiable smile made it easy for the little ladies to let down their guard, and this second time they met, a group of people became familiar with each other.

Ming Yi walked into the hall of Jiye Building, and on the big table in the middle, there was a stack of exquisite Xue Tao paper, and Lin Zhao was in the middle, holding a pen and smiling and drawing. Shidong used a small stone mortar to grind the flower juice, Baixi used a handkerchief to filter out the flower juice, all stored in a small white porcelain bowl, Qiannan added the flower water in the porcelain bowl drop by drop to the inkstone, and grinded it carefully, and Wanbei carefully took away the painted small statue and placed it on the table to dry.

"Simei is waiting for you to paint alone, Brother Lin is so blessed!" Ming Yi took a closer look, and the room was full of fragrance.

The four girls stopped what they were doing, stood in a row, and saluted in unison.

"Okay, okay, I didn't blame you. It's also that I don't have much time to manage. What is this doing? Mingyi tried to keep her voice less stern, and the children were still a little afraid of her.

As the eldest of the four, Shidong has the responsibility to stand up: "Mr. Lin said that if you use flower juice to grind and paint, there will be no smell of pine smoke left on the paper, but the fragrance of flowers will be left, which makes people happy." ”

Ming Yi couldn't help but glance at Lin Zhao with a smile, the smell of flower juice is different from the essence of the spices refined, how can it be retained, these children don't understand, how can Lin Zhao not understand.

Lin Zhao scratched his head with a smile: "I can't hide it from Ming Niangzi, I'm teasing the little ladies, don't be surprised." ”

Shi Dong and the others all turned their heads to look at Lin Zhao, staring at the round apricot eyes, taking care of the cheeks, all of them were vivid and cute, where was the fierceness, but Lin Zhao's eyes were smaller when he smiled.

Ming Yi smiled helplessly: "You guys go out first, go to Lianshan and ask what you can do." I spoke to Mr. Lin. ”

The four of them responded, one followed one and walked out, not forgetting to turn around and glare at Lin Zhao again, or snort, or kick their feet. Lin Zhao held his hands, looked at them with a smile, nodded and smiled, enjoying himself.

Ming Yi picked up the small statue in the past and looked at it carefully, in terms of painting, Lin Zhao never disappointed her, just the ink sketch, the peerless demeanor of the four gentlemen jumped on the paper.

"Thank you Mr. Lin," Ming Yi put down the statue and motioned for Lin Zhao to sit down together.

Lin Zhao's smile did not change: "Where is it, I have to thank Mrs. Ming." Otherwise, relying on the salary of the college, I wouldn't dare to set foot in Chengkangfang. ”

"Mr. Lin said with a smile, with your Danqing wonderful pen, can you get less people who want to paint?" Ming Yi said leisurely.

Lin Zhao's smile was a little closer: "Don't tell lies in front of real people." I do dare to say that I am a must in Chang'an, but in this green building, how many people can afford my pen? There are only the Oirans of the Gyoru-in. The little lady who has not been out of the cabinet, how can the family look down on my hand, what they want is to be neat and luxurious, IKEA and Ikea room. But I only like to draw the strength in the bones of women, although I am a little frivolous, this one does not like to lie. ”

Ming Yi Zhengse said: "Yes, I greatly admire Mr. Lin's writing, which is more alive than a real person standing in front of him, and it is the bone of a beauty." ”

"Haha, the person who painted the bones, although this name is a bit scary, I like it very much, Ming Niangzi knows me!" Lin Zhao held up the pen and arched his hand.

"The little lady who is not out of the cabinet can't be the master, and the ordinary oiran can't afford to pay the price, but some are celebrities and noblewomen, official businessmen, and family members of officials and businessmen, who love to leave beautiful people and bones, and are generous, so they should love Mr.'s paintings." Mingyi pretended not to understand and continued to ask.

Lin Zhao shook his head and said, "I'm not a likable white-faced scholar, a handsome merchant, how can I get into those deep mansion compounds." I really have this heart, but I don't have this power! ”

What Ming Yi was waiting for was this sentence: "How about Mr. and I cooperate?" I promise that the guests of the pavilion are not rich or expensive, I invite Mr. to the pavilion to paint for the ladies, and the pen obtained belongs to Mr. ”

Lin Zhao's small eyes instantly widened three times, just like an ordinary person: "Ming Niangzi, this is a joke, right?" How can there be such a big deal and a reason to marry others. ”

Mingyi looked directly into his little eyes, and seemed to smile: "Mingyi is not the kind of small trader who seeks temporary profits, but it's a pity that Mr. Lin doesn't understand me." ”

Lin Zhao's face was a little intriguing, and he was half tentative: "Why did Ming Niangzi say this?" Originally, Lin Zhao was a dull person, who could understand the seven tricks of the Ming Lady. I just don't know that the lady doesn't want to be a trader, is it possible to yearn for the rivers and lakes and be a chivalrous woman who is amazed? Although I hibernate in the academy, I also heard that the lady became the leader of the Shangguan gang, and I was very surprised. ”

Ming Yi laughed heartily and said: "Mr. Lin is not ashamed of me, in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, I am just temporarily in charge of the gang for others, and I am just a showman." It's this business, I don't want to be a small trader, but I am determined to be a big businessman who can make money every day, but I don't know if Mr. Lin is willing to take my boat? ”

Lin Zhao narrowed his eyes again and was silent. 2k reading web
