Chapter 29 Setting up a factory
Guo Tianhao's move can not be described as vicious.
The first person to compose a poem at a banquet is often the most learned and talented of the people at the table.
If this did not open well, not only did it suffer the ridicule of others at the banquet, but it also greatly lost the face of the host's family.
If Hu Changan responds, he will naturally not be pleased.
But if Hu Changan didn't, he would definitely have a reputation for being timid in the hearts of the literati attending the banquet.
Today's literati are clear, and they pay the most attention to integrity.
Once his reputation is bad, then Hu Changan will never want to get out of Shilin in his life.
Guo Tianhao said, sat down, and looked at Hu Changan proudly.
At this time, Hu Changan is afraid that he will be in a dilemma and will not be able to come to the stage.
However, Hu Changan's face did not show a look of embarrassment as Guo Tianhao expected.
After hearing this, Hu Changan just stood up slowly, saluted everyone in the main seat, and said: "Since Guo Gongzi values the talent of contemptible, then I will be disrespectful and give everyone a start." I don't know what Mrs. Zhou thinks, what should this poem be about? ”
Mrs. Zhou, who was sitting on the high platform, pondered for a moment and said, "Today is a big day, why don't you write a few birthday poems on the theme of my 80th birthday?" ”
"Naturally, no problem." Hu Changan leaned over and replied.
After pondering for a moment, Hu Changan recited with a faint sense of wine: "Xiangyun is kind to embrace the Chinese feast, and the Yufu Pengshan sees the immortals." Qiong Cup prays for eyebrows, and eternally recommends 8,000 longevity. ”
Suddenly, the audience was shocked.
Many literati present were immediately amazed.
"Okay, this poem is really wonderful, not only is the artistic conception wonderful, but also cleverly integrated into the expectation of the old woman's future longevity, wonderful."
"This Hu Chang'an is really a real person who doesn't show his face. originally thought that he was just like Hu Weiyong, just a profit-hungry bureaucrat, but who knew that his literary attainments were so profound. ”
"This poem is very wonderful, and I am afraid that I am ashamed of myself."
Zhou Ji, who was on the side, was also so shocked that he almost dropped his wine glass on the ground.
What's the matter with this kid, he said that he would go with him all his life, why did he suddenly rebel?
It seems that there is one less scumbag in Yingtian City.
Hu Changan saw that everyone praised himself one after another, and he also made a few bows modestly, then turned to Guo Tianhao, and said lightly: "I am not just here, I just made an ugly offering." I don't know if Guo Gongzi can open his eyes? ”
"Ah, this ......" Guo Tianhao suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and he couldn't speak.
This pearl and jade is in front, Guo Tianhao is not good at poetry in this area, how can he play?
However, being stared at by so many people, Guo Tianhao couldn't escape, so he could only stand up, pretend to think for a while, and said: "Birthday celebrations, life is better than ...... Qiankun for a long time. Longevity and longevity. Matsutsuki has been ...... since then Bisen Sendimao. ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but be speechless for a while.
To say that this poem is not too badly written.
But compared with Hu Changan's poems before, it is far behind.
The words that are almost vernacular, the metaphors that have no new ideas, can only be said to be rotten streets.
Guo Tianhao also knew that he was not as good as that, and as soon as the words fell, he quickly sat back in his seat, half-covering his face with a fan, not to mention how embarrassing it was.
originally wanted to make Hu Changan ugly, but he didn't expect that this back and forth, the one who made a fool of himself turned out to be Guo Tianhao himself.
Hu Changan, on his side, looked calm, and just continued to sit down to eat and drink.
With the passing of this episode, the banquet also returned to its original lively atmosphere, and everyone continued to chant and laugh back and forth, so lively.
However, since he finished reciting the poem, Hu Changan obviously felt that the people around him were much warmer to him, and the wine was also a cup of wine.
But fortunately, the original owner was a gentleman before, and the amount of alcohol was good, so he didn't drink Hu Changan on the spot.
drank a lot of wine, and after the banquet, Hu Changan returned to Hufu in a carriage with the support of the little maid, and fell asleep without even taking off his clothes.
......
It's been another cool morning.
Hu Changan sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, eating breakfast leisurely, and enjoying the intimate massage service of the maid by the way.
Today, Hu Changan officially decided to open the first soap factory of the Ming Dynasty.
For this reason, Hu Changan specially ordered Manager Chen to invite Zhou Zhou and some other craftsmen to discuss the establishment of the factory.
After a while, the little guy came in to report that the person who was the shopkeeper Chen had brought it.
At this time, Hu Changan's breakfast happened to be almost finished.
Hu Changan waved his hand, ordered someone to remove breakfast, and notified Shopkeeper Chen to bring someone in.
Suddenly, a large group of people gathered around Hulala in the small courtyard, all of whom were craftsmen who helped Hu Changan make soap.
Among them, Monday stood proudly in the first column.
Today's Monday is already a five-body surrender to Hu Changan's admiration.
As a craftsman who has devoted himself to studying technology, what I admire most is naturally his highly skilled peers.
Although Hu Changan is not a craftsman, the formula he wrote casually surpassed the experience of the Zhou family's ancestors for many years, how could this not make Zhou Zhou admire.
Seeing Hu Changan on Monday, he hurriedly saluted, and said with a full spirit: "Hello young master!" ”
Seeing this, the other craftsmen also bowed down one after another, and looked at Hu Changan curiously.
It is said that it was this Young Master Hu who transformed the traditional pancreatic recipe and made the Hu family make a lot of money.
The first time they saw a real person, these craftsmen were naturally very curious, and couldn't help but look at it again and again.
Seeing everyone looking at him like a rare species, Hu Changan couldn't help but be a little panicked, and hurriedly clapped his hands lightly to change everyone's consciousness, and asked, "On Monday, how are you making soap now?" ”
"Back to the young master, we are ten people now, and we can make about three thousand pieces of soap a day." Monday replied respectfully.
Hu Changan nodded with satisfaction.
This speed is really not slow, it seems that these craftsmen are very diligent and not lazy.
But this speed can be faster.
Hu Changan smiled and said mysteriously: "Come, today, the young master will teach you a way to make you produce at least twice as much soap every day." ”
"What!" When the craftsmen heard this, their faces were full of surprise.
You know, they're all running at full capacity right now!
I have to work at least ten hours a day, and even eat in the workshop.
In this way, it barely reached the level of 3,000 bars of soap a day.
I've worked so hard, how can I improve?
Could it be...... Continue to increase your working hours?
Don't, they are all old and young, no matter how much they are paid, it is not worth it to spend their lives when they are tired.
Everyone suddenly looked bitter, and ten pairs of eyes stared at Hu Changan without blinking, for fear that he would say that he would continue to increase working hours.
