Tang Shiyue left all the accounts of Yuefang, Tangjia Wine, and Fushou Wine to him without hesitation. This was very simple for Xia Yuhui, and he got started quickly.
After getting acquainted with him, Tang Shiyue took him to the wine shop and showed him around, saying that this is the gentleman I invited, he is very good, and you can ask him if you have anything in the future.
Chen Changyuan was not dissatisfied at all. Instead, he was very respectful and carefully asked if he could ask him for advice in the future. Xia Yuhui agreed with a smile.
After coming out, Tang Shiyue said to him: "Mr.
You don’t have to worry about things here.”
Xia Yuhui couldn't help but help his forehead.
I don't know how many times Tang Shiyue taught him about laziness.
He didn't know whether to be grateful for his master's kindness or to protest against his master's underestimation of his ability.
But listening to her words, it seems that she has no intention of staying in Jubao Village for a long time. Cultivating people who can take charge of their own affairs is paving the way for leaving. She seems to have always known her future clearly.
Xia Yuhui said: "I haven't asked yet, what are your wishes in the future?"
Tang Shiyue said: "Even if you can't do whatever you want, at least you can be free. You don't have to bow to anyone, and you don't have to be bullied by anyone, whether it's officials, businessmen, bandits, etc."
She answered without thinking and in an understatement. Xia Yuhui was stunned for a moment before he realized that she had already answered. When he thought about the meaning of her words, he didn't know how to evaluate her.
Tang Shiyue glanced at him: "Accumulate wealth, build reputation, wine shop, wine shop, whatever shop will be in the future... They are all just means and bridges, and they will eventually lead to this goal. So, do you understand what I mean?
"
When Xia Yuhui was looked at by her clear eyes, he felt a kind of fear in facing those in high positions, and said anxiously: "I understand."
"Yeah." She nodded.
At this moment, a child ran over: "Master Tang! Several people are coming to find you and are waiting at your door."
Tang Shiyue responded, nodded to him, and left.
Looking at her back, Xia Yuhui was a little startled.
He didn't know how to describe this little girl at the moment. She was "completely free to do as she pleased." It sounded a bit weird, but she didn't have any desire to cling to her, nor did she even have the ambition to become a successful person. She seemed to be simply... working hard to build something.
The life you want?
Fortunately, he understood what she meant. At least she didn't intend to accumulate wealth, so in the future, he would have a clear idea when weighing various things.
Tang Shiyue returned to the stone house and saw several people standing there in the distance. They all turned their heads when they heard the sound.
At first, a spirited old man stepped forward and saluted: "Who are you, the master of Yuefang?"
Tang Shiyue said: "That's right, father-in-law?"
The old man said: "I, Huang Shoumin, heard that Yue Fang spent a lot of money to ask for a spinning wheel that can spin wool?"
Tang Shiyue nodded, then pointed to what the person behind him was carrying: "I made one, would you like to try it, little lady?"
Tang Shiyue cheered up and immediately took them to Yuefang. The cart was wrapped in cloth, disassembled and placed on the ground. It was actually still pedaled!
You know, today's hemp spinning wheels are still hand-cranked! This is not an improvement but a creation, which is really great!
Tang Shiyue didn't know how to spin, so she called Qiao Sangyu and tried it with wool. The spun thread was thin and even, and it was obviously fluffier than the kneaded thread.
Tang Shiyue found it interesting and went up to try it. She felt that the technical content was not high and that a novice like her could use it.
This saves a lot of effort.
Moreover, what made her particularly satisfied was that although this tool was an experimental product, it was polished smooth and delicate everywhere, not only the places that could be seen, but also the places that would not be noticed at a glance. It was also very neat, which satisfied her obsessive-compulsive disorder.
.
Mr. Huang stood there with his hands behind his back, waiting quietly. When he saw her coming down, he said, "Is it possible?"
Tang Shiyue said: "Can you make this line a little thicker?"
"Yes," Mr. Huang said, "the thickness can be adjusted."
She added: "I will make cashmere later, which is softer and finer than this. Will this spinning wheel be used by then?"
"Softer and thinner," Mr. Huang raised his head and thought for a while: "It should be okay."
Tang Shiyue made a decision and said: "If it works, you can help me make a slightly thicker one first. I'll take a look first. If it works, you can stay and make it for me according to that standard..." She thought for a while: "
Let’s make a hundred of them.”
She paused: "What do you think is a suitable salary?"
Mr. Huang said carefully: "It was mentioned in the document that whoever can build a woolen spinning wheel will be rewarded with two hundred taels of silver?"
"Oh, of course." Tang Shiyue said, "I can give you that now. What I'm asking about is the salary in the future."
Mr. Huang didn't expect her to be so neat, so his expression immediately relaxed and he said: "If you have that, you don't have to pay for the other wages."
"That can't be done, one yard is worth one yard." Tang Shiyue thought for a moment: "For the remaining hundred frames, I'll give you two hundred cash for each one. I'll pay for the labor and materials, and you all can help me make them well. If I do
Okay, I still have a lot of things I want you to do!"
When Gusu students were still here, she wanted to raise a group of craftsmen.
Not only the cleaning of Yuefang, the improvement of dryers, but also some new agricultural tools, such as tread plows, deep plows, tillage racks, shovels, knives, insect combs... there are so many of them just to count!
The wisdom of thousands of years is infinite. If you want to do something that will last forever, come here and make the country strong for hundreds of years. Then what else will happen in the future?
I feel sorry for those who invented these things in later generations.
Mr. Huang brought five apprentices. Making a hundred spinning wheels was a big job. Fortunately, she now had a steward, so Xia Yuhui, who didn't even know the way, began to work hard to find a place for them, and also
I have to go to the town to buy materials, change directions, and check my identity... It's very fulfilling.
Tang Shiyue went back to knitting a sweater while humming a song.
She finally finished knitting several people's socks and hats, but a few days ago she was bald when eating, and she promised to give out several sweaters... What she is knitting now is Xiao Qiyang's.
Little Qiyang's birthday was coming soon, and she would definitely give him a gift anyway, so she was going to give him this sweater.
What she knitted for them were sweaters that were similar to long vests. They were round-necked, pulled over, sleeveless, and lowered above the hips. They were worn between the underwear and the outer cotton robe. They were light, warm, and not too bulky.
.
It was named Woolen Robe.
Yes, although in modern times this is considered a long robe, in ancient times it was a short robe.
She planned to wait for cashmere to arrive before knitting cashmere, but then she would have to wear it next year.
Then Qi Jing brought people and built a fire bed for her. After building it, Tang Shiyue felt it and immediately asked them to build the Xu family, the martial arts school, and Yuefang. Many people in Yuefang originally wanted to knit at home.
They are all back, the whole workshop is warm, there is tea and water, food is provided, and everyone can laugh and chat, it is much more comfortable than at home.
Tang Shiyue rarely became diligent. Carrying a small round flower basket, she wandered around the martial arts hall, Yuefang, and stone houses. Before she left one place, she arrived at another place before it was completely frozen. Finally, she arrived on the day before Qi Yang's birthday.
, knitted the sweater.
Then on the day of his birthday, Tang Shiyue sent people to the town early in the morning to buy a lot of food and gave it to Mrs. Ye and the cooks to cook.
The martial arts gym and the Xu family both had a day off. It was a rare sunny day, and Qi Yang didn't feel too cold, so she wore the sweater she knitted and walked around the martial arts gym.
Qi Yang has fair skin, Tang Shiyue chose a true red color, and twisted it into small twists at intervals, which looked very nice.
Qi Xiaolang looked at her for a long time with his hands behind his hands, and asked her without looking back: "What's the first sweater in the world?" (To be continued)
