"Heh, you don't earn a bastard if you have money! Not to mention building walls, even if you go to lick the feet of the officials, you are willing! ”

"That's it, just take a break for a year! Adults, choose me, choose me! I'm so good at my craft that I can endure hardships! ”

"I have a lot of strength, and the iron I smelt is the best in the entire Ministry of Industry!"

……

It's no wonder that these craftsmen are excited, you must know that these non-staff personnel below the ninth grade will only earn sixteen taels of silver a year.

Every time I go to work, it can only be regarded as performance, and the money given by Party A is in the pocket of the Ministry of Industry.

And this time, Lin Yanchen gave twenty taels of silver at a time, which can be regarded as extremely bold!

This kind of gold owner, who is not active is a fool!

So it has to be said that money is omnipotent in any time and space.

And the law of true incense is also an eternal god.

But Lin Yanchen ignored these calls, but shouted them one by one according to the type he needed.

"The master carpenter came out and stood in a line on my left, each one at a foot apart!"

"Quiet! Be quiet! Don't be noisy with others! Don't rush to the top! If someone is found to have cheated later, he will be punished for the crime of defrauding the king! ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience fell silent for a moment.

The craftsmen and masters honestly closed their mouths and tightened their necks.

The sin of deception!

Coupled with the high reward personally from His Majesty mentioned above, it is not difficult for them to guess that this time it is for His Majesty!

This can't help but make a person's enthusiasm cool down.

Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, and the same is true for working for the emperor.

Although the remuneration is huge, if you don't do it well, you will lose your head!

However, even so, most people still flock to it.

You are afraid of death, right, then this money will be earned by Lao Tzu!

You know, in the face of monetary interests, risk is a hair?

You'll hesitate just because you don't have enough money.

Even, after some people knew that this matter was risky, they became more determined.

If there is no risk, they will not be able to take the twenty taels of silver, wouldn't they be at ease now!

And in the Ministry of Industry, carpenters have always been the most numerous.

After all, in ancient times, wood was the most common material, so the most carpentry was required.

This first wave alone was lined up with a long queue of fifteen people.

"The master blacksmiths are out of the queue and stand on the right hand side of the officer! Also lined up in a number row, one foot apart from each person! ”

Lin Yanchen didn't stop shouting this time, and continued to shout.

"The master papermaker is out of the queue and stands in the second column on the left hand of the officer!"

"The master bamboo craftsman is out of the ranks......"

"Cabin Boatman......

"Masons ......"

A stick of incense.

The master Lin Yanchen shouted stood in a total of six columns, that is, six different craftsmen.

These are all he needs to make the next thing.

But there are more than 30 people in the list, and if all of them are selected, I am afraid that there will be a lot of redundancy, so he still has to screen again.

And Lin Yanchen stopped, and the eighty-odd people who were not listed sighed one after another.

"Alas...... I knew that Lao Tzu would have gone to learn carpenter! Missed a chance to make a fortune! ”

"Yes! It's really cheap Lao Zhang's group of bastards! ”

"What do you say Your Majesty wants these people to do?"

"Be careful! If you dare to talk about the Holy One, I don't think you want to live anymore! ”

……

Lin Yanchen listened to the sound of chirping in his ears, a little irritable.

"You people don't want to shout here, this official has recruited enough people now, you should go back separately!"

After everyone left, Lin Yanchen walked to the front of several rows of craftsmen.

"You, you, you, and both of you, go and stand behind the officer."

Lin Yanchen pointed to the four columns of papermakers, bamboo craftsmen, cabin shipwrights, and masons in turn.

Except for two masons, there is only one person in the other three columns.

It just so happened that no one was hired.

Only two blacksmiths and three carpenters are needed next.

Lin Yanchen came to the blacksmith column first and looked at the eight people in front of him.

"Do any of you recommend yourself?"

When the eight people heard this, you look at me, and I look at you.

"My lord, what is Mao Sui's self-recommendation?"

A middle-aged man with a slightly honest appearance asked.

Lin Yanchen only then reacted that there is no Mao Sui in this era, let alone the word Mao Sui's self-recommendation......

In order to hide his embarrassment, Lin Yanchen dragged the person who opened the mouth with a cold face.

"It's you, go and stay in the back!"

"Huh?" The middle-aged man was obviously stunned, and then his face was overjoyed, "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!" ”

There was only one blacksmith left, Lin Yanchen touched his chin and looked at it a few times, then pointed to Liu Yong in the crowd.

"Well, the hair is gray, the body bones look quite strong, it must be a master with many years of work and experience, it's you!"

Lin Yanchen was about to walk over to see the carpenter, but was suddenly stopped by Liu Yong.

"My lord, you may be mistaken, the little one has Chinese New Year's Eve today, although he has followed his father to learn to make iron since he was a child, but his age in the blacksmith industry can only be regarded as a first glimpse of the door."

Ha?

Lin Yanchen stayed directly in Bengbu.

Uncle, ah no, uncle, I believe you when you say you're seventy years old.

And you tell me you're thirty-one?

You're really anxious about how you look!

"Ahem", Lin Yanchen couldn't bear to complain, and continued to say seriously, "You don't have to find a reason to resign because you are afraid that Your Majesty will blame you, you can rest assured, with the guarantee of this official, even if you miss the work, there will be absolutely no punishment!" ”

Lin Yanchen thought about it for a while, and finally felt that this possibility was great, after all, how could anyone have half white hair and wrinkles at the age of thirty?

In ancient times, people had fewer entertainment activities, all of which were made at sunrise and rested at sunset, and basically no one would stay up late, let alone premature aging.

But Liu Yong was even more embarrassed, and even his old face couldn't help but blush.

"Back to adults, the small ones really don't mean that, the small ones are really a little old and ......."

Lin Yanchen was really speechless this time, good guy, are you a little old?

But he still exhaled lightly and said calmly:

"It's okay, the official sees that you obviously have more dirt on your body, and presumably the work must be diligent and hardworking, if you go and stand in the back, the official still chooses you."

"Adult......" Liu Yong said weakly, "In fact, the dirt on the small body is caused by accidentally falling down after stepping on a mud puddle on the road......"

Lin Yanchen felt that he was about to suffocate.

You deliberately came to dismantle Lao Tzutai, right?

"If the official tells you to go, you will go! If you dare to be verbose again, cut out your tongue! ”

"Little obedience!"

This time, Liu Yong didn't say more, and he didn't dare to say more, so he ran directly to Lin Yanchen and stood behind.

Lin Yanchen sighed helplessly.

I already knew that I would use violent means directly, talking so much nonsense with him, wasting time, and there were still three hours (six hours) of poetry meetings to start!

Thinking of this, Lin Yanchen waved his hand directly at the carpenter.

"Damn, the first three will go directly with the official, and the rest will disperse!"
