On the first day of the first lunar month, the content of the clan meeting quickly spread.

Not only are the Huang family happy, but the tenants in the Huang family's village are even happier, although their children need to be tied up for school, but this gives them more hope.

After the clan meeting, Huang Yueying went to the expanded workshop to inspect it, and the workshop of each process was as she had imagined before, even if it could not meet the standards of later generations, but it also did the best in this era.

The final drying is also a sandwich wall, which can be used to burn wood to heat the walls painted with lime powder on both sides, so that even on rainy days, the output will not be affected.

In the original history, bamboo paper was improved by the Jin Dynasty after Cao Wei, and then slowly replaced bamboo slips.

There is a Jin dynasty, and there are five chaotic flowers behind. Huang Yueying narrowed her eyes, and her thoughts diverged.

There is one thing to say, in the Three Kingdoms, in the end, whether Cao Cao or Liu Bei took over the world, they would not allow foreign races to go south to make trouble.

It's a pity that Cao Cao's descendants are not capable, and the heirs of the Sima family ...... No, plus it is difficult for her to meddle in Cao Wei's affairs, so she has never considered Cao Wei's side.

As for Liu Bei's descendants, her ability is even worse, but she still has a chance to meddle!

Speaking of Eastern Wu, now it is only four years of Jian'an (199 AD), Sun Quan is still a little kid of the same age as her, and Sun Ce, who is known as the little overlord, is still killing and killing, and it will take more than a year to be assassinated and the battle of Cao Yuan Guandu.

There are a lot of things she can operate.

Whether to remind Xiaobawang or not, this is also a question.

If you are reminded, Dongwu may be much stronger than in history, and it can also give Cao Cao a little more trouble, and of course, it will also make Liu Biao more trouble; If she didn't remind her, she felt that Sun Ce's death was really a pity, and Sun Quan, compared to his brother, was much weaker.

Who is the agent in Yangzhou......

……

The second day of the first month.

"Uncle Song, you have been keeping an eye on the carpenter since last year, is there any news?"

Early in the morning, Huang Yueying wore the clothes that Aunt Li had changed well, tied a high ponytail, held about 20 catties of corn in her left hand, and carried two pieces of bacon in her right hand to Song Bo's house.

"Ouch, little lady, hurry up and get your things back!" Looking at the things in Huang Yueying's hand, Song Bo hurriedly said.

Now his family is in much better condition than last year, and he has saved a lot of food.

Before the beginning of the year, the main family also gave them a coarse cloth, and during this time he had been eating at the workshop, which not only saved his own rations, but also strengthened a lot.

Seeing Song Bo's nervous expression, Huang Yueying waved her hand, put the things in the yard, and smiled, "Uncle Song, this is what my father asked me to bring here, our tenants have it, and Uncle Zhou sent the others, so don't be polite." ”

"No, no, no, the former lady of the year gave us a piece of coarse cloth!" Song Bo still refused.

It is a blessing for them that the Lord is good to them, but they themselves have to be self-aware.

"Uncle Song, it's okay if you don't accept it, return it to my mother, it's useless to tell me, I'm just an errand runner."

Song Bo: ...... What else could he do?

"Okay, Uncle Song, so what's the carpenter's search?" Huang Yueying said that she just wants to get to the point as soon as possible. Before going to Xiangyang, she had told Song Bo.

"When the workshop was completed, I asked the people who stayed behind to recommend the carpenters I knew, so I found seven more people, eight of whom could carve flowers and only one who could carve seals."

After listening to these numbers, Huang Yueying nodded, "Gather them tomorrow, I have something for them to do." ”

"No." Song Bo nodded in response, he had no problem, and there was no problem with those people.

"In addition, Uncle Song, since the workshop has been expanded into a new one, every process of the new workshop needs you and a few others to take care of it more, so let you be the manager and get the salary, this is the detailed rules of the restructuring." Huang Yueying took out a folded boxy piece of paper and handed it to Song Bo.

Song Bo took it and opened it to see that it was the rules of the workshop, and his own little lady actually wanted to pay this group of people!

Not only does it pack food, but it also pays money, and an ordinary helper earns five dollars a day, so it is 1,500 yuan a month, and it is ...... a year That's a lot of money!

And how many of them ...... The daily wage is 10 cents!

"Little lady, this treatment ...... Too rich, right? ”

"Five dollars can only buy two catties of corn......" Huang Yueying's eyes widened, one catty in the Han Dynasty was only half a catty in later generations!

With only enough money to buy so much food a day, she already felt that she was not human!

According to their family's original 500 acres of land, the yield per mu is now only three stones, and the annual output is only 1,500 stones, and at this time, one stone of corn is about 200 yuan.

In other words, if it is calculated purely by grain, her family can probably collect 1,500 stone of grain a year, but she has to pay taxes and give half of it to the tenants, so she can't let her family starve to death.

If it is converted into money, excluding taxes and the grain of the tenants, it will be about 1230,000 yuan a year.

And the tenants, equivalent to cultivating dozens of acres of land every year, each family can only get more than 10,000 catties of grain, if calculated according to the unit of later generations, it is equivalent to more than 5,000 catties, converted into money, that is, about 15,000 money, and this is the annual income of a family.

Of course, this is because the Huang family Zhuangzi collects less rent, so that there is such an income.

"But let's eat it! It's me, I've grown a lot stronger in the past month or so! Song Bo also glared at Huang Yueying.

He thinks it's too rich!

"But once they come to work, their livelihood in the fields will be gone."

"Little lady, not everyone has land! Most of the helpers we recruited are still willing to stay, most of them don't have their own land, they have their own land, and when it comes to spring ploughing, they will definitely ask for leave! ”

"This is how it should be, no matter what kind of work you do, farming is the most important thing."

When Song Bo heard this, well, too, but soon he said, "I, Lao Zhang, and Lao Li are a few people, ten dollars a day is too much!" ”

"Uncle Song, you are the people who know how to make paper the most, and you are the most familiar with the whole papermaking process. In a while, I will have to send you to several other places to build more workshops, and by that time you will have a shortage of strong laborers in your family! ”

Huang Yueying said that she was about to reuse them, and would also let them miss the spring ploughing and autumn harvest.

"This ......" Song Bo felt that he couldn't refuse.

"So, I still need Uncle Song to do the ideological work of several other people."

"Ideological work?"

"Well, for example, if Uncle Zhang is unwilling to leave Zhuangzi to work, then I need Uncle Song to help me persuade him."

"Oh." Song Bo understood, and then he could only respond.

When he encounters such a master, he can only try to repay it.

……

On the third day of the first lunar month, because the workshop had officially started work yesterday, Huangjia Zhuangzi was busy again.

New Chu paper is constantly being put into the built warehouse, just waiting for the agents to come and pull it away.

Huang Yueying looked at the thirteen carpenters in front of her, the eldest had gray hair, and the youngest was in his twenties, but his body was not very strong.

"This is the little lady of the owner's family, and it is also the new paper she taught me to make." Song Bo stood behind Huang Yueying and introduced the more than ten carpenters.

"I've seen the little lady."

"I've seen the owner!"

Huang Yueying nodded slightly, "I've seen you." ”

"This time, the little lady came to you, there is an extremely confidential thing for you to do, so you must sign the confidential deed first, and if someone says it, you will go to the county government directly according to the deed." Song Bo explained again and took out a deed, "Of course, this confidential deed only requires you not to tell about today's events, and it has no impact on your life." ”

A group of people, you look at me, I look at you, most of them are illiterate.

As a result, the youngest carpenter was the first to put his own handprint on the deed, and the others followed.

Seeing this, Huang Yueying asked the young carpenter, "What's your name?" How long have you been working as a carpenter? ”

"Back to the little lady, under the surname Li Mingmu, my father is a carpenter, and I have been doing it since I was a child, but when I fled before, my father died of illness, and now I am alone, but I have been doing it for more than a year." Li Mu replied respectfully.

"You weren't there when the workshop was expanded?"

"Yes."

"Can I build a hydraulic mortar designed by my father?"

Li Mu nodded, "If the materials are sufficient and the drawings are complete, it will take me five days to finish." ”

"Yes, by the way, who among you can engrave a seal?"

"The Old Decay." At this point, the gray-haired carpenter nodded slightly.

"Who can carve?"

A few more people took a step forward, including Li Mu.

Huang Yueying was a little surprised, but it was not an accident, it would not be strange that this Li Mu had been in contact with since he was a child.

"What do you call the old gentleman?"

"Don't be a gentleman, the old and decaying grandson, three out of forty this year." Sun Sui introduced himself, "I have been doing carpentry work for 30 years, I have been carving seals for 15 years, and I can do some work as a stonemason. ”

"Old Sun can be described as a skilled craftsman!" Huang Yueying then directly determined the status of this old gentleman, "What I want to do this time is similar to carving a seal, but it is bigger than a seal." ”

"Huh? Bigger than a seal? ”

"That's right, it's to engrave a book, and then print it on paper like a seal, so you don't have to copy it by hand."

Sun Sui was stunned for a moment, relieved for a while to understand, and then looked at Huang Yueying in surprise, sighed and ashamed, and said, "The little lady is really a genius, she has carved the seal for so many years, and she has never thought of this layer." I'm sorry, just now I didn't believe what Steward Song said, but now, I believe it, I'm really old. ”

Huang Yueying is also ashamed, hi...... Her ideas, which are all from later generations, are standing on the shoulders of giants, "Don't don't, although the idea is simple, but it is difficult to really implement." ”

Sun Sui thought for a while and nodded, "That's true, if it's a seal carving, there are also requirements for wood." ”

"Also, the font, size, and style of the engraved words need to be consistent."

"Indeed."

"In addition, there are two directions of printing, one is engraving, that is, the content is engraved with a whole wooden board, with a low fault tolerance, but the size and style of the engraved font can be better controlled."

"The second is movable type, with the same shape of the wooden block carved on different words, when you want to use, you can assemble together, although it looks convenient, the fault tolerance rate is high, but because each master has different skills, it is difficult to carve all the words into the same style."

"Shhh...... How can this be? ”

"Makes sense!"

"The little lady is talented!"

"I've seen it below!"

"Admire!"
