Fu Tinghan watched Zhao Erlang practice the gun, and after drawing the gun body that suited him, he handed it over to the craftsman to do.

And the people of Chenzhou also brought two craftsmen, oh no, a craftsman, an apprentice.

Zhao Hanzhang was stunned when she saw them in the front hall of the county government, she didn't expect Chang Ning to really persuade the other party to send people over.

Zhao Hanzhang looked at the two of them and asked, "What are your names?" ”

The young man standing at the front bowed down and said, "Little Hu Jin." ”

Zhao Hanzhang looked at the other.

The other was actually about the same age as Hu Jin, but he was tall and strong, and he also bowed down and said, "Little Lu Hu." ”

The sound is like a bell, very loud.

Zhao Hanzhang looked at him suspiciously, "You are also a craftsman?" ”

It doesn't look like it, but it looks a lot like the warriors in her barracks.

Lu Hu said in a sullen voice: "The little one is still an apprentice. ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded and asked, "How long have you been learning engraving?" ”

Coincidentally, the two of them have been learning engraving for the same age, both started learning at the age of six, and it has been twelve years now.

Hu Jin is already a craftsman who can lead independently, while Lu Hu is still an apprentice.

This is what the steward of Chenzhou said.

The steward of Chen Zhou said that although they were willing to send craftsmen to Zhao Hanzhang, they also had to ask them what they meant, and at present, only these two people were willing to come over to Zhao Hanzhang.

Among them, Hu Jin's technique is very good.

Zhao Hanzhang was moved when he heard this, but when he looked up, he caught a glimpse of Lu Hu bowing his head a little unwillingly.

Zhao Hanzhang asked: "I don't know if they have families, can you send their families too?" ”

The steward smiled and said: "Hu Jin's family came with him, and he was the only one in Lu Hu's family." ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded, and immediately asked people to arrange a place for the two of them, which was near the bookstore, so they must entertain people well.

She didn't promise anything at once, and the steward was sensible, and she didn't mention the gluttonous feast at all, and got up and left after sending people in.

As soon as the people left, Zhao Hanzhang immediately went to the two of them and asked, "Are you slaves or craftsmen?" ”

Both of them said respectfully: "We are all craftsmen." ”

Zhao Hanzhang was even more satisfied, and asked them to take their books to settle down in Xiping County, and from today on, they and their families will be her people from Xiping County.

Zhao Hanzhang took them directly to the bookstore, of course, it was impossible to start work directly, she just wanted to ask them about the process of engraving and printing, so as to master their abilities.

Lu Hu basically listened, and Hu Jin was explaining the whole process.

The key technology of engraving is in engraving, inking and engraving maintenance, Hu Jin is very skilled, it can be seen that he is indeed a mature craftsman.

Zhao Hanzhang wrote a line of words for him to carve.

Hu Jin knew that this was testing him, so he didn't panic, printed the paper on the wooden board, and then took out his carving knife and began to carve according to the traces.

Zhao Hanzhang asked while looking at it, "Do you know how to read?" ”

Hu Jin paused for a moment and said: "I don't recognize much, I only recognize a few." ”

"Do you know this line I wrote?"

Hu Jin put down the carving knife, took out the piece of paper and said word by word: "Old, son, heaven, down, first, one." ”

Zhao Hanzhang was very satisfied and said, "Actually, you don't have to pause." ”

She watched Hu Jin finish carving Yangwen, and after processing it, she began to ink and print, and the printed words were not much different from her handwriting.

Her eyes shone brightly, looking at the freshly printed handwriting, she was very satisfied, "Give you two days to settle down at home, and after two days, you go to the school to select a few clever students to come over and help, I will give you the manuscript, and you will carve according to it." ”

Hu Jin hesitated for a moment and then responded.

Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile: "Don't worry, you work with me well, I won't treat you badly, the salary is compared to the Chen family's high three percent, you can also put forward other requirements, if you can meet them, I will meet them." ”

Although Zhao Hanzhang said very generously, neither of them dared to put forward conditions.

The bookstore is also managed by Zhao Qing, Zhao Hanzhang is very interested in the bookstore, and the most important thing is that the first books she printed were the two enlightenment textbooks she wrote silently.

So she didn't let Zhao take care of it for the time being, and planned to explore it herself.

The main thing is that there are only two people, and there is no need to manage much.

As soon as Zhao Hanzhang left, Hu Jin glanced at Lu Hu, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Senior brother, do you want to go to my house?" ”

Lu Hu turned around and left.

Zhao Hanzhang didn't know what happened between them, she had just tested Hu Jin's skills, and she was very grateful to Chen Zhou's good intentions, so she said to Chang Ning: "Go and talk to Chen Zhou, let him prepare for the gluttonous banquet the day after tomorrow, I will take him there." ”

Chang Ning knew at a glance that she was very satisfied, and asked after answering with a smile, "Do you want to send someone to check on the two of you?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang waved his hand indifferently and said, "There are no secrets in the bookstore. ”

Even the technicians are all from other people, so what secret can there be?

Chang Ning felt the same, but, "Then how can Lu Hu not have a family?" You should still check it out. ”

Zhao Hanzhang sighed and said, "Sir, I don't mind checking more, but I don't have enough people now." ”

Chang Ning stopped talking.

In the end, his suspicion and caution still made him find two officials from the county government to go to Ancheng County to investigate.

Lv Hu...... I really have a family, but ...... Ahem, he's been separated.

The news came back quickly, and the night before they went to the gluttonous banquet, Fu Tinghan followed Zhao Hanzhang to hear a sad story of a scumbag.

"Hu Jin and Lu Hu studied with Craftsman Lu, oh, Craftsman Lu is the father of Craftsman Lv Hu, he has three sons, all of whom followed him to learn engraving and printing, but Lv Hu's talent is very average, twelve years, even if Craftsman Lv is favoritistic, he is still an apprentice."

Even Zhao Erlang listened, holding chopsticks and listening blankly, and asked, "Then what?" ”

"Then he was divided," Chang Ning looked up at Zhao Erlang and said: "Their family separated him, and the official inquired about it, and heard that he can't go out of the school anymore, so he will go to work as a handyman, the apprentice of the Chen Family Bookstore has been raised since childhood, and he will also have a salary after he can get started, I heard that he has not earned a penny from his family so far." ”

It's pathetic.

Zhao Erlang thought of himself, sympathized with the other party, and hurriedly went to see his sister, "Sister, will you drive him away?" ”

"What are you doing with him?" Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile: "He is not suitable for being a craftsman, it doesn't mean that he is not suitable for other jobs, but because his ancestors did this, he can only choose this." ”

Although there is one less apprentice who can be used, Zhao Hanzhang is not very sorry, anyway, they are all her people, this place is not suitable, just put it in another place.

"There is no one in the bookstore now, although his skills are average, but he has been an apprentice in the bookstore for 12 years, and his knowledge is always better than that of ordinary people, let him give Hu Jin a hand, and then train people in the future," Zhao Hanzhang said: "We have to train our own people here, and we still have to continue to look for craftsmen over there." ”

This has nothing to do with Chang Ning, he doesn't have this connection, these things are all done by Ji Yuan.
