Gao Huai has been sleeping very little recently, and the more people drink, the more drunk he gets, the more he drinks, the more sober he becomes.

In his own words, he drank to become an immortal.

He and his wife Cao's lived in separate courtyards, got up early in the morning, first warmed a cup of sweet cherry wine, and then accompanied by a few yellow finch, and leisurely counted the fallen leaves in front of the court.

When the sixteenth piece was blown down, a guest arrived.

Gao Huai welcomed the guests into the hall.

The guest pulls out a piece of paper sandwiched in a cowhide.

"Look, my lord, this is something that Bai Erlang brought to the city this time, and it is said to be very valuable."

He'd seen some messy ghost drawings on it, and he didn't know why it was valuable.

But the more he can't understand it, the more precious it should be.

Gao Huai glanced at it first, then his pupils shrank, he put down the wine cup and picked up the paper with both hands, and trembled in front of him.

He looked down from above, and from bottom to top, and finally put down the paper, hurried to the bookshelf again, rummaged through a pile of bamboo slips, and then held a roll of bamboo slips and looked at the paper, and the more he looked at it, the more his hands trembled.

"This is ......" Gao Huai took a few breaths, "This is the extension of the pre-Qin stone drum!" ”

He put his nose on the paper and sniffed, "It's still fresh!" ”

Gao Huaimeng raised his eyes and looked at the guest, "This is what Bai Erlang brought?" ”

The man nodded, "I found it in the He family's baggage." ”

Gao Huai sent the guests away, left a piece of paper, wrote a letter to send people to Jinling, and then went back to the room to ponder.

No wonder the Bai family seems to be exhausted, but they are always hungry to death, it turns out that there is a trick!

Pre-Qin stone drum!

Just this rubbing article can sell a thousand taels of silver!

But where did the stone drum come from?

They obviously searched the Bai family!

In other words, the Bai family really has a place to hide things!

Wow! Gao Huai touched his smooth chin and squinted his eyes, no wonder he couldn't force the old widow with money!

Then what else can force her, can make her breathless!

A light flashed in his mind, and he got up and hurried to the bookcase, and took up his pen and wrote a big word under the fifth line: name.

Since Bai Shichen values the Bai clan so much, she will be allowed to bring the ashes back to the sect when she dies, she has to think about this!

……

Yan Zhuo almost had an accident yesterday, and when he went out today, Bai Yu rented a big carriage.

He and Bai Yi drove in person, and Ah Kuang led people to follow secretly.

Yan Zhuo straightened things out a little early in the morning, and first went to the "best jade carving master in Haicheng" that Zhizhi found to discuss the production of female armor.

This master turned out to be a person from the original He family's shop, nearly seventy, with all white hair and beard, but he was spiritual, and his eyes were already one big and one small because he had been looking at things for a long time.

Zhizhi was afraid of Yan Zhuo and disgusted the old man's age, so he praised vigorously: "I want to find the best carver, ask all over Haicheng, everyone says that they want to carve jade to find Gui Lao, then it must be right!" ”

When Gui Lao heard that Yan Zhuo was from the He family, he was quite cordial, and asked how Master He was doing.

I didn't say a word before I found the problem, and the old man just finished asking, turned his head and forgot about it, asked it again, forgot it after asking, and asked it again.

The one who led Yan Zhuo and them in was Uncle Gui's eldest daughter-in-law, and when she saw Yan Zhuo's face hesitating, she said with a smile: "You can rest assured, the lady of the He family!" Don't look at my grandfather and forget things, the craftsmanship of jade carving has not been forgotten at all! In the past, when the shopkeeper Liu was in charge, he disliked him for not remembering things clearly, so he let him come back and stay, and my grandfather was idle all day, and there was no jade to carve, so he moved back some roots and wood every day to carve. ”

Saying that, he took Yan Zhuo to see the wood carved by Master Gui, and Yan Zhuo was stunned as soon as he entered the warehouse, all of which were exquisite and lifelike wood carvings, such as the crane in the clouds, the deer turning back, the birthday star of the East China Sea, the Weaver Girl flying in the sky, and the Eight Immortal Lantern Festival...... The knife work is fine, and the form is expressive!

What an obsession with carving!

This skill is definitely a treasure in Jinling! Liu Cong's blind goods, no wonder he will lose the He family's industry like that!

She took out the sketch of the female armor she had drawn and handed it to Gui Lao, "Look at it, carve this out of scale armor......"

The bottom of the female armor is white jade, and the five scales on it are put together into a peach blossom shape, and there is a strange beast on all sides, and it is not difficult to carve, after all, it is a pattern thousands of years ago, and the lines are simple.

But scales are brittler than jade, and she has a limited number of them, so she needs to be very careful.

That Gui Lao was stunned when he saw the sketch, and then he took it and looked at it with broken thoughts, nodded slowly, and turned a deaf ear to external affairs.

Yan Zhuo paid the deposit first, and then explained a few words of confidentiality to the Gui family.

took Zhizhi out of the back door quietly, walked around two alleys, and went straight to a teahouse on the side of the street.

In order to prevent anyone from following, Bai Yu and Bai Yi stopped the carriage and guarded here.

In addition to the two people in the teahouse, Ah Kuang also took Wang Lu over.

Yan Zhuo has seen the situation of the old master, and he is more confident about reopening the He Jiayu shop.

I simply told Wang Lu that I wanted to recruit all kinds of jade field workers, and about two hundred people were needed in the first batch.

Wang Lu was stunned for a long time before he reacted, a stout man, and tears rolled in his eyes with excitement.

He thought it was looking for a long-term farmer, but he didn't expect it to be a jade field!

Although I don't know much about what to do in the jade field, it's better than eating soil in the field in the wind, rain and sun!

Although he didn't understand, he also knew what jade represented, and it was worth more than silver!

Wang Lu was so excited that he stood up and slammed it to the ground, "Thank you He Qi Niangzi for looking up to our brothers!" ”

Yan Zhuo raised his hand to signal him to sit down, and said with a smile: "Brother Lu, don't thank you too early, we are in business, and all ugly words must be said in front." ”

She gestured to her fingers and said: "First, the work in the jade field is not easy, for example, it is difficult to transport materials, and it is necessary to eat ash for cutting and polishing. ”

"It's fine!" Wang Lu patted his chest, "The brothers of our beggar gang are not afraid of being tired, and they are not afraid of ashes!" As long as we can settle down and eat, we will work diligently! ”

Yan Zhuo nodded with a smile and continued: "Second, there are many rules in the jade field, and they are strict, and the most basic thing is the entry and exit system: you are not allowed to go out without permission. But you can rest assured, if you have a family, the family can be placed in the jade field. There will also be pastimes such as teahouses, gardens, and theaters in the jade field, and there will also be a master or a school according to the situation of the family in the jade field. ”

When Wang Lu heard it, this jade field was clearly a small Zhuangzi, even better than the life in the small Zhuangzi, and he could drink tea and watch plays! Where can you find such a great place?

Nodding his head again and again.

Yan Zhuo raised a third finger, "Third, the rewards and punishments are clear." The most important thing in doing things under my hands is the word "loyalty". If you do well, you will be rewarded, and you will never be disadvantaged in money.

"But if you break the rules, you will not be lenient. If you have bad intentions and your hands and feet are not clean, then I will make him regret it tenfold and hundredfold. ”

Wang Lu agreed with a hundred people, and sighed: "What a reward, clear punishment!" Qi Niangzi is really a heroine among women, and the rules of our beggar gang are the same, and they have always hated those crooked and unfaithful villains and thieves the most! ”

Yan Zhuo reached a consensus with him in these aspects, and breathed a sigh of relief, the beggar gang itself has a kind of gang binding force, as long as she can use this power, then her manpower problem will be much easier.
