Chapter 388: Gold Medal Craftsman

The emperor is not a stupid and incompetent person, otherwise the Great Zhou Dynasty would not have suffered natural and man-made disasters for several years, and would still be able to maintain a glimmer of life on the brink of danger.

The emperor had already understood that in order to consolidate the Great Zhou Dynasty, in addition to a large number of troops, it was necessary to have a strong national strength, and the focus of national strength was agriculture.

To do a good job in agriculture, we must have skilled craftsmen like Wang Jing who can promote agricultural development.

Zhang Shangshu's suggestion was just in line with the emperor's thoughts, so he readily agreed.

But he asked Zhang Shangshu to go back and formulate a perfect recommendation policy, and then send it to him later.

Zhang Shangshu was also excited, as long as the system he set up was useful for the future development of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the emperor would definitely keep him in mind.

Don't look at his position as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, it is already very prestigious, it is estimated that it will take hundreds of years for a family to produce a book, and the ancestral tomb is not only smoking but also emitting cyan smoke.

But as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, he also has his own difficulties, not to mention the competition and exclusion of his colleagues, and the juniors below are eyeing him and eager to try.

Now that he is old, he has a feeling of being overwhelmed by the cold in a high place, and the only thing he can grasp is the favor of the saints.

As long as what he does is in the interests of the saints, he is a high-ranking and powerful weighing star.

After the emperor personally inspected the waterwheel and the rice machinery, after 5 days, the holy decree came down, and Wu County Ling was promoted to the governor of Yizhou because of his meritorious recommendation of Wang Jing, and he could take office within a few days.

Wang Jing was awarded the gold medal craftsman, holding the gold medal craftsman gold medal, you can see the official without kneeling, and reward 1,000 taels of gold, 100 acres of fertile land, and a craftsman workshop.

Wang Jing has completed the work of teaching craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry, so he is temporarily idle at home.

With this time, he spent more time with his grandfather and grandmother, and he didn't wander around at will.

He is a person who likes to study, bought a Luban lock in the capital, studied the practice of Luban lock all day long, hoped that he could also make one by himself, and also made some handmade products for sale in his spare time, such as wooden birds or something, which can also be sold at a very high price in the capital, and the income came up, so he was not panicked.

Liu Wan's new house has not yet been renovated, so the mother and son are still living in Liu's house.

In addition to accompanying his grandfather and mother, Wang Jing was almost in retreat, and everyone could only hear the sound of sawing wood from his yard, as well as various "clanging" chiseling sounds, and the smell of fresh shavings wafting from the yard.

Liu Ming often came to him, and Liu Ming has always been grateful to this cousin who saved his life.

In addition to bringing some delicious and fun food to Wang Jing, he also asked Wang Jing to go to the scenic spots around the capital.

"Brother, don't you know that there is a mouthful of sweet spring water in Ganquan Temple, but it is sweet, it is said that you can live a long life by drinking the water of Ganquan Temple often, so many rich and noble families in the capital will go to Ganquan Temple, and it is very effective to pray to God and Buddha there, why don't you go with me tomorrow?"

Liu Ming tried his best to persuade Wang Jing, and when he saw that he was bored at home all day, he wanted to take him to see the world.

Wang Jing smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll go with you." ”

He also has a good impression of this cousin, seeing that he is so enthusiastic, he does not look down on him from the countryside, and he is enthusiastic about arranging again, which is not good for his kindness.

He saw that going to Ganquan Temple was also specially arranged for him by Liu Ming.

"That's great, I brought my fifth brother, sixth brother, and sister with me, they have been noisy and have long wanted to go, and the most important thing is that the vegetarian dishes in Ganquan Temple are particularly delicious.

By the way, we'll have to call my aunt to go with us. ”

As soon as Liu Ming heard that Wang Jing agreed, he counted the people he wanted to go with, and the result was more and more.

Seeing him so energetic, Wang Jing smiled and didn't stop him.

At this moment, Yahuan Hongmei suddenly ran in from outside the house in a panic and said:

"Young master, urgent, the emperor, the emperor is here."

The emperor is coming?

Suddenly, everyone was a little bit of a monk and confused.

"Hongmei, how could the emperor come here?"

"Oh, no, it's the emperor's decree!" Hongmei panted and said.

"What? The Emperor's Holy Decree? For whom? me? ”

Wang Jing subconsciously said so.

"No, it's for you! Young Master Wang! ”

Hongmei looked excited and looked at Wang Jing with admiration.

"For me?"

Wang Jing understood as soon as he heard it, probably because of the waterwheel.

Hongmei is a round-faced girl, chubby, very cute and simple, a few days ago when the old lady was temporarily transferred to the yard of the young lady, a group of maids around him laughed at him, said:

"This is out of favor, right? Go and serve two countrymen! ”

Although the old lady loves Liu Wan very much, she can't hide Wang Jing's rural background.

The girls all felt that serving Liu Wan and Wang Jing was a promising thing.

After all, other masters are rich and generous, and Liu Wan and Wang Jing will leave the capital and return to the countryside after a while, no matter how good they are, they will go back when the time comes.

And how generous can a country man be?

Just think about it.

Hongmei is quite unconvinced, but she is honest and doesn't know how to argue with others.

No one expected that the emperor would give Wang Jing a holy decree, and the master of the Liu family's courtyard could not let the emperor make a holy decree, which suddenly made Hongmei feel honored.

Seeing Hongmei so excited, Wang Jing was not so panicked in his heart, and said with a smile:

"Hongmei, don't get excited, I'll change my clothes and I'll be there soon."

If you want to receive the holy decree, you must dress neatly, Wang Jing has seen his family receive the holy decree when he was at home, he has no teacher about these things, and now it is really inconvenient for him to take a short fight.

Wang Jing hurriedly took out a slightly more elegant gown from his luggage and put it on, washed his face again, and asked Hongmei to help him sweep his hair, and then went out to receive the holy decree.

The eunuch who came to deliver the holy decree was ordered by the old man in the front yard, and when Wang Jing went out, he was drinking fragrant tea and chatting with the people of the Liu family.

It's not that the people of the Liu family have never seen a big scene, after all, as a Xinglin family, what kind of dignitaries and nobles have he never seen?

It is estimated that in addition to not seeing the emperor before, they also often come into contact with those powerful people in the capital, and these powerful men and wives are also polite to them.

The people of the Liu family didn't expect that Wang Jing would be able to go straight to the sky, at most they thought that it would be enough to reward some silver, but they didn't expect that there would be a holy decree coming down.

The Liu family is happy for Wang Jing.

Wang Jing came out of the backyard, respectfully, and after some greetings, Gonggong Liu, who came to present the award, began to issue the holy decree.

Wang Jing knelt down to receive the order.

After the decree was issued, Liu Wan felt that the emperor was still okay, and he gave Wang Jing enough face, and he also had vision, knowing that the waterwheel and the rice machine were a heavy weapon for the benefit of the country, which showed that he still had some brains.

Wang Jing was overjoyed to receive an unexpected reward.

After Gonggong Liu finished issuing the holy decree and left, all the people of the Liu family gathered around and congratulated the king.
