Throughout the day, countless people came and went, one group sent away and another came.
Huang Shoumin from the workshop also came to wish her New Year's greetings. They each said a few auspicious words before Mr. Huang said: "As long as the boss doesn't dislike it, we will work with him from now on. If the boss has any work, just ask us."
"Okay." Tang Shiyue was not surprised and said, "I heard that you came from Liangzhou Baigongfang. Do you want to start your own business in the future? Or do you want to continue to inherit Baigongfang's craftsmanship?"
Huang Shoumin was a little surprised.
He was indeed a disciple of Baigongfang before, but since the death of his master, there have been constant conflicts between the brothers. In the end, he simply left Baigongfang with his apprentice.
Because this kind of thing is taboo among craftsmen, he never told them, not wanting her to know about it.
Presumably the contradiction in the middle has been found out, so you started soliciting, right?
Huang Shoumin was a little glad that he chose to rely on him.
So he said: "All my craftsmanship was taught by my master, and I will never be ungrateful. If my boss can let us keep the name of 'Baigongfang', I would be very grateful!"
Craftsmen of this era had the habit of signing their names on the things they made. Whether they were making porcelain, pottery, or jewelry, they would leave the name of their workshop in an inconspicuous place.
Tang Shiyue nodded, "In the future, the properties under my name will retain the word 'Yue', but I also allow you to leave the name Baigongfang." She said with a smile: "We will become famous all over the world together.
"
Huang Shoumin smiled and said, "I'm borrowing my boss's good words."
He didn't take his words seriously at first, and wanted to leave after the matter was finished. Unexpectedly, Tang Shiyue took out two drawings, which were obviously prepared long ago: "You can make these two things later."
Huang Shoumin was stunned.
He quickly took it with both hands. As soon as he took it, he was very surprised. Then he took a closer look and looked a little excited: "Don't worry, boss, we will do it right away!"
What she gave him was mahjong and checkers.
In this era, the common casual game, namely leaf cards, is not rich at all.
It was also during the Chinese New Year period, when she saw so many people around, that she suddenly remembered these two things and prepared to take them out.
These two things are not technically troublesome to make, but they must be very fast to promote. So... how difficult can it be to spread the name of Yuejia Hundred Workshops to the world?
During the Chinese New Year, everyone was greeted and sent off, and Yan Dong and Sheng Qi didn't go anywhere, just staying in the martial arts gym.
The room they lived in was on the second floor, and they watched Liang Dabeard and others chopping firewood every day, even during the Chinese New Year.
Sheng Qi had long been familiar with these people, so he went over to chat when he was bored: "Why do you chop firewood every day? Does the fire pit cost so much firewood? Even if you chop so much, it's not enough to burn it?"
"It's not just the fire kang!" Liang Dabeard was chopping quickly, raising his arms and pointing everywhere: "Here, behind, and over here, there are white seeds planted. They will burn, and they will freeze to death if they get cold.
"
Sheng Qi was a little strange, so he went over to take a look, and then he was surprised. He called someone from afar: "Uncle! Uncle! Come and see!"
Yan Dong had no choice but to put down his book and go over to take a look. At first glance, he was also a little surprised. Nuo Da's backyard was full of white seeds, with a fire wall on the side, a shed on top, and a fire pool in the middle.
, very warm, Bai Diazi is also growing well, and has already grown peaches.
Yan Dong said in astonishment: "What are you doing planting so many Baidianzi?"
Sheng Qi said, "That's right, this thing doesn't look good either!"
"Instead of silk floss."
Tang Shiyue listened to their questions and answered like this.
She took a sleeve warmer from the pillow and handed it to them: "Try it, is it quite warm?"
Yan Dong and Sheng Qi both touched it and tried it on their hands. It was indeed light and warm.
Sheng Qi said in surprise: "What do you think? No one has ever used flowers as silk floss!"
Tang Shiyue glanced at him with disdain: "The predecessors have not done it before, so why don't we do it? Now we are still drinking blood! As long as you think of something, you can try it. If you don't succeed, you can't do it.
Isn’t it just one more thing to keep out the cold? And the cotton won’t compact when pressed, which is much better than catkins and reeds. So I’m going to wait until spring to plant more.”
Sheng Qi said: "You call this 'cotton'?" He thought for a while, "It's quite appropriate. It's better than Bai Diazi."
"Well." Tang Shiyue took out another sleeveless jacket and gave it to Yan Dong: "This one is made of cotton. It's a bit big. I just gave it to you. You can feel it. If you are interested, wait for the cotton
If you pick them, I'll ask someone to send you some, or you can find someone to try them out."
No matter what dynasty, people's livelihood is always the top priority.
Yan Dong took it and thanked him solemnly.
From then on, Yan Dong became interested and went to look at these white stacks when he had time. Tang Shiyue didn't care about him.
Because she was engaged, she had a certain sense of being a "wife" in her life. Thinking that Huo Qijing was leaving on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, she got up early on the third day of the Lunar New Year and prepared to make some meat floss for Huo Qijing to take with him.
This stuff lasts a long time and is easy to eat. When you have porridge every morning, just scoop a spoonful into it and it's quite delicious.
When making pork floss, you should choose lean meat without any tendons. Wash it, cut it into pieces, blanch it in boiling water, then take it out and strain it.
Then put the blanched meat into the pot, add soy sauce, sugar, thirteen spices, salt, wine, ginger and other seasonings, pour in water, cover the pot and bring to a boil, simmer on low heat for about half an hour, until
The meat is so tender that you can pierce it with chopsticks.
Then take it out, let it cool, and tear it into shreds with your hands.
The finer it is torn, the crispier and more delicious it will be. After tearing it, shred it into pieces, stir-fry it over low heat, and be careful not to burn it. Keep stirring until the meat is minced.
It's enough to be completely dehydrated and fluffy.
When it cools down, put it in a jar and seal it, and you can eat it until spring.
Tang Shiyue also added sesame seeds when frying, and the aroma was fragrant. Before it came out of the pan, Sheng Qi smelled the smell and started yelling outside.
She worked all day long, let it cool and packed it up, making several large jars, which she could take with her to eat herself or give away to others.
A lazy person like her would not do so much work easily. After finishing her work, she stretched herself and planned to find someone to buy pork quickly. Before leaving, she would make him some dried meat and some soup.
Then let him make soup later, just use the jelly pot to make it, and then cut it into pieces.
Anyway, the weather is cold, so there is no need to worry about it getting bad.
She was also thinking about getting some compressed biscuits and instant noodles, or playing with a big one. What were the structures of the battleships in the museum in previous lives?
At noon on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Yandong's shadow guards rushed back from the capital and brought back a letter.
Yan Dong opened it and looked at it, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face. (To be continued)
