Chapter 3: Dragon Slayer

The purpose of the establishment of the cotton mill was to produce a large number of cotton textiles, and to solve the problem of feeding the group of extremely poor women in Chang'an City.

That's right, when a woman has even done the thing of selling her body, but still can't eat enough and can't feed her children, there is no doubt that this is the responsibility of the government.

When Yun Chu entered the workshop, he saw a large group of women in overalls chattering softly around him.

When those women saw Yun Chu, they all closed their mouths, tidied up their appearances one by one, and respectfully saluted Yun Chu.

They perform the very formal woman's ritual, which is to press the right hand to the left hand, (men are the opposite), hide the hand in the sleeve, raise the hand to raise the forehead, bow 90 degrees, and then get up, and at the same time the hand is raised again, and then the hand is lowered, and the cycle is three times.

After Yun Chu waved his hand, these women stood on both sides very consciously, half-bent over and waiting for Yun Chu to speak.

Watching this scene with a gentle smile, and constantly shaking his head, when he came in, these women performed a general salute, and after the salute, a large group of people who thought they were outstanding in appearance surrounded him, hoping to be valued by a noble man like him, and ascend from a cotton textile woman to the heavens, and become the handmaiden of a rich and noble family.

Yun Chu, accompanied by the foreman of the female workers, inspected the workshop, took off his coat, and felt the temperature in the workshop himself.

Although it was still cold, when Yun Chu asked these women to stretch out their hands to check for chilblains, they found that the problem was not serious, the temperature in the workshop was not high, but they could tolerate it, and as long as they started to work, they could not feel the cold.

"The county, there is a lot of cotton and cotton yarn here, so the regulations on the use of fire are very strict, and it all depends on the fire walls on both sides of the workshop for heating, so it is not cold."

Yun Chu rubbed his cold hands and sighed, "Is it really not cold?" ”

The forewoman smiled, and smiled brightly.

"Concubines, these people have experienced colder ...... So, it's not cold right now. ”

Yun Chu didn't want to, and didn't want to mention the past of the first batch of women who entered the workshop, so he smiled and said, "How can you get the same money in a month now, right?" ”

The female foreman said with a smile: "The county respects the concubine, if the shopkeeper Liu only gives the concubine a constant salary, at this time, you should be able to see the concubine in the Baiqi Division's workshop, where the concubine can get at least three times of money." ”

This female foreman Yun Chu knows, a native of Meiling, she followed her husband from Lingnan to Chang'an to be an official, but unfortunately, she only became an official for a year, and her husband died, leaving her alone with two children to live a hard life in Chang'an.

Just before she was about to step into the gate of Pingkangfang, she suddenly saw the recruitment notice of the cotton spinning factory, and decisively came to work in the cotton spinning factory.

"Are you still missing Meiling?"

The woman smiled with tears in her eyes: "It's fun here, not homesick." ”

"Is Chang'an a boy bad?"

The woman pressed her heart with red eyes and said, "My husband is still there." ”

Yun Chu looked at the tearful female foreman, and then looked at the textile woman who was also sad, and couldn't help but sing: "I often envy the jade man in the world." Tianying begged with a little crispy girl. Do the song to spread the teeth. The wind rises. The snow flies and the sea becomes cool.

Thousands of miles back, the less Yan looks. Smile. When laughing, it is still fragrant with Lingmei. Let's ask Lingnan should not be good. But he said. This place of peace is my hometown. ”

Yun Chu's singing is actually very good, especially because he often has to get some words back, and he learns the ancient rhyme well.

Therefore, when his deep singing voice sounded in the workshop, there were many more listeners.

Gentle looked at the group of women who wanted to untie their clothes immediately but didn't dare to approach Yun Chu, so she grabbed Liu Rui beside her and said: "I knew it was like this, pity me for being famous for a year, and I was lost in one day." ”

Liu Rui muttered the lyrics that Yun Chu had sung just now, and when he heard Wen Wen say this, he blinked his eyes and said: "The prince has not written poetry for a long time, and now, it is extremely rare for this long and short sentence to appear in the workshop." The last sentence 'This place of peace is my hometown' should exhaust Su Niang's thoughts.

With this long and short sentence, the name of Su Niang, the matter of Su Niang will spread all over Chang'an City, and more than 6,000 women in this textile factory will also be grateful. ”

Comforting those strong women who had worked hard before, and are now master craftsmen, Yun Chu came to the textile factory account and began to check the accounts, he didn't want to look at the profits and losses of the textile factory, he already knew this, he wanted to see the salary of the textile women today.

"In this way, the new Weaver Girl's monthly income is six hundred?"

"If you go back to the county, twenty dollars a day is enough to feed two people, and if you live a harder life, you can live three people."

Yun Chu nodded and said: "Very good, ten thousand years, the reason why the two counties of Chang'an want to establish these textile factories is to make money, although it is very important, however, it is more important to place more women in." Sometimes, when it comes to it, the people are truly rich only when the woman has money in her purse.

Since the profits of the textile mill are high, the bottom line can be appropriately raised......" Speaking of this, he looked at it gently and said: "The government should also allocate some special funds to support this matter." ”

Gentle smile: "It can't be more, I have more places to spend money there." ”

Yun Chu's lunch was eaten in the textile factory, in fact, he and Wen Wen didn't like to eat here, because there was nothing to eat.

The staple food is millet steamed buns and black noodle pot helmets, as well as multigrain bean porridge that Chang'an people never seem to be able to drink, as for vegetables, cabbage boiled in white water, radish boiled in white water, and then a little salt cabbage, it may be that Yun Chu and Gentle came today, and there was one more dish of salt vegetables to boil tofu.

"Don't look at the poor food here, it's already a rare good meal in the people's homes, and the most important thing is that the food here is enough.

Speaking of which, you don't know the appetite of these women, when they first came in, their appetite was no worse than that of a strong man, many people, who had been hungry all their lives, until they entered the textile factory, did they know what it was like to be full for the first time. ”

Liu Rui seems to have adapted to the food here, with a pot of various dishes, holding a black-noodle pot helmet, and eating the vegetables with soup is extremely refreshing.

Yun Chu wanted to vomit out the first bite, and Gentleness had already vomited, but the two of them still ate all the food that Liu Rui specially called him without changing their faces.

After leaving the textile factory, he retched softly and said to Yun Chu: "What's the matter with Liu Rui, since you leave us to eat, let us eat a big pot of dishes?" ”

Yun Chu picked his teeth, finally got a cabbage tendon out of between his teeth, looked at the tall factory and said: "Whether it is his tutor, his conscience, or his morality, he will not be allowed to do the thing of letting those female workers gnaw cabbage and we eat big fish and meat." ”

Thinking about the tragic situation of Liu Renliang inviting them to dinner last time, she couldn't help but nod and said, "You say, what is Lao Liu?" He really didn't have any money in his hands, so he had to make himself look like a poor ghost.

Every time I go to his house and see his wife feeding the chickens, I feel unbearable, that is the real Mrs. Bo, and Mrs. Bo also has a share of money and food. ”

"Lao Liu is fighting for us, he doesn't want the turmoil in Luoyang City to blow to Chang'an, and he has been impeached by those sycophants these days.

Recently, haven't you noticed that the officials who told the old people either returned to their hometowns or came to live in Chang'an?

Once Lao Liu can't bear it. was replaced by the position left behind in Chang'an, you see, our good days are basically over. ”

Sighed softly and said, "I found that I am now a real county order, and I am doing the work of a real county order." ”

"What, it's boring?"

Nodding gently, "It doesn't match my dream." ”

The gentle dream Yun Chu knew, he just wanted to do great things, wanted to compete with the whole world with his own strength, and then failed, was divided into five horses or cut by a thousand knives, and finally put it into the largest tripod and was divided and eaten.

This madman doesn't pray for success, maybe he also thinks that he can't succeed, and his ideas are extremely perverted.

Of course, the premise is that his wife and children can't be hurt because of him...... Therefore, he can't actually do anything big.

"This year's heavy snow is actually very good, not to mention that the moisture of the land will improve, not to mention that this heavy snow will freeze a lot of pests in the land to death.

Wannian County, the idea of the people of Chang'an County eager to plant cotton will come true. ”

Gently shook the snow on the cloak and whispered, "I really don't want to deal with the people......"

Yun Chu smiled: "Knock down the rich people in the world and let them not be so arrogant, do you think it's a big deal?" ”

Said gently: "Count, what do you have in mind, tell me, what can we do to make those guys with fat brains humble to the dust?"

If you agree with my previous advice, I'll make a plan and we can do a good job. ”

The gentle way is to rob, and now, Chang'an City controls the bandits and robbers on the road from Chang'an to the Buddha Kingdom.

In fact, it can't be said that people are robbers and bandits, according to the official government of Chang'an City, people are called explorers, or swordsmen.

With this hammer in his hand, anything that is not pleasing to the eye is like a nail, and as long as he has troubles, he wants to smash two hammers.

Yun Chu also shook off the falling snow on his cloak and said, "Do you know what the wealth of the rich is? ”

Gentle smile: "Money doesn't count, it should be land and materials." ”

Yun Chu sighed and said: "The wealth of the rich is actually the poor, all their wealth comes from the poor, as long as there is such a thing as the poor in the world, their wealth will always exist." ”

Gentle frowned: "So, you are exterminating the poor?" Although this makes sense, it's just a bullshit, I know that after the poor become rich, there will be no so-called rich people, but it's still bullshit, I even want to give you a piece of shit!

Because if you continue to understand according to your words, there will be a terrible concept - equal wealth and poverty, and equal to the rich and low.

After Chen Sheng and Wu Guang began to shout these words, you know how serious the consequences are, if you can send my wife and children to a place that is not under the influence of Datang, I can accompany you to go crazy.

But ah, I know you can't bear to be in this prosperous world. ”

Yun Chu looked at Gentle in surprise and said, "That's not what I thought. ”

Gently sneered: "You have always done this, the relationship between the two of us is so close, almost more fucking than Longyang couple, I don't know what you think in your heart?" ”

Yun Chu looked left and right and hurriedly said, "You didn't say it, did you?" ”

Said gently: "No, but I'm also curious, you really don't have much ambition for power, it's usually enough, how can you do something in the direction of slaying the dragon?" ”

Yun Chu clicked his mouth, swallowed another mouthful of saliva, and said in a low voice: "Because the education I received since I was a child was dragon slaying, I didn't have a dragon a long time ago, and I learned the ability to slay dragons."

Now, with dragons, it's inevitable that skills will itch. ”
