Chapter 46: Calculation
Niu Peiling's clothes are very plain, in Fan Jingjing's eyes, she is dressed almost the same as Queen Changsun, she is dressed in plain clothes, and a bright big flower is inserted on her head.
The flower on the head of Niu Fei is nothing else, but an orchid.
In later generations, orchids are precious flowers, but in Chang'an, the Tang Dynasty, a delicate flower, I don't know if it's worth anything.
Flowers and plants, in the countryside, may just be weeds, but can bring flowers to the head in a bright state, is it so simple?
What's more, the temperature in the place where the blacksmith strikes iron is so high that the flowers should soon wither in such an environment.
But the flowers on the young woman's head are delicate.
Isn't she the one who was already here?
"Are you the wife of the ginger blacksmith?"
Fan Jingjing learned that no matter who it is anyway, it will never be wrong to call people women in Datang.
Even a wife can be called a lady. I don't know how they subdivide it either.
"Huh! I'm Niu Shijin and her mother. Niu Shijin has been taken care of by you.
The ginger blacksmith is actually not a blacksmith, and the blacksmith has been expropriated by the imperial court.
It's just that he is interested in striking iron, and after retiring from the army, he has been experimenting with striking iron at my home.
We also think that's a good thing.
When he was in the army, he used to help blacksmiths do some odd jobs, which was a bit basic, because he had built some good things.
His goal is to create some practical civilian items, which are much less difficult than striking iron in the army, so he can still make some useful things at the moment. For example, some scissors, hammers.
Your bags seem to have inspired him. So come back and knock and knock all the time.
He seems to be making a new market cart, but now he is in great difficulty.
His favorite thing was the retractable lever, but he couldn't do it right now, so he was hammering desperately into it. “
Pull rod? This should use a kind of spring, but can the iron of this era make a spring? Anyway, there is one more capital that can be negotiated.
"I brought a solution, but to exchange something with him, I needed a set of carpentry tools. I hope he can help me make some farm tools, and I need him to help me make some farm tools.
I can draw a blueprint for him, but if he asks for a blueprint for a woodworking tool, I won't give him any more designs unless he has something to trade with me. “
Fan Jingjing knows that the things in her head are limited, and there is no way to take them back if she gives it, and people in this era do not pay attention to intellectual property rights, so she must consider every new thing before giving it to others, and see if she can exchange it for the most needed items at this stage.
Fan Jingjing really wanted to pull Jiang Tiejiang over, but she also knew that she would pull Jiang Blacksmith over, and she didn't have the ability to find raw materials for Jiang Blacksmith.
So this kind of difficult thing, she didn't have to think about it, how to let the ginger blacksmith help her make some tools, so that she could make more practical tools is more important.
Only with money can more people help her do things, and there are practical tools that can save manpower.
There must be enough money before. Or rather, there is enough grain and fields.
She found that the fields of the Tang Dynasty did not necessarily need to wait for the official distribution of the imperial court.
There was a lot of wasteland in the Tang Dynasty, if you can reclaim it, even if it is yours, you can declare it to the imperial court.
In the future, as long as you pay taxes, your land rights will be recognized.
Of course, this kind of truth does not exist near Chang'an.
The land near Chang'an is owned by the owner.
Logically speaking, these lands are not considered to have no owner, but belong to the imperial court officials, but the imperial court officials can't use so much land, if he doesn't think that this land is of great use, ordinary people can open up land and declare it to the imperial court.
