Wen Buren was sitting at the door, looking calm and calm.
I went to the furniture factory today to train these guards. Not long after the training, before he could leave, the sky suddenly turned dark, and then it rained heavily. This was the first heavy rain this year, and the sound was very shocking. It only lasted for a while.
, the rainwater accumulated in the yard as high as shoe uppers, and the rainwater flowing on the tile eaves was as thick as a little finger.
Zhang Du came over and said, "Mr. Wen, this heavy rain may not stop for a while. Please take shelter indoors."
Wen Buren nodded: "That's fine!"
The house is actually not a place to rest.
All the rooms in this house, no matter how big or small, have been turned into furniture production lines, with all kinds of wood and semi-finished products of revolving wooden chairs placed neatly.
More than thirty carpenters were distributed everywhere, performing their duties without being disturbed by the heavy rain outside.
A busy scene, full of energy.
Wen Buren visited for a long time and sighed: "Is this what Du He created? What I see from these craftsmen is not only busyness, but also a kind of hope."
The craftsmen in the palace work very hard, but unfortunately they look lifeless, which makes people feel very depressed. Moreover, when those people are working, there must be a few official servants with whips next to them, and the whip will be used from time to time.
Draw it on your body.
But in the furniture factory, there is no one to supervise and no one to yell, but everyone's efficiency is surprisingly high.
This point makes Wen Buren very puzzled.
Just when Zhang Du came over, he asked: "Is your name Zhang Du? Do you have a nickname?"
Zhang Du smiled and said: "Mr. Wen is joking, I am just a slave, I don't dare to expect to have any words."
"Many of you people must be slaves. I don't understand something. Why are you so enthusiastic about doing things and don't seem to need anyone to supervise them?" Wen Buren expressed his doubts.
Zhang Du hurriedly said: "Mr. Wen, you don't know something. First of all, this is because our young master is pitying us. We people, at least, have 10 wages per day, and can rest for 3 days every month. When we rest, we still get the same wages."
You can get it, take me for example, I am just a lowly slave, but when I got to the furniture factory, the young master never looked down on me, and even asked me to manage the production of revolving wooden chairs. I was paid 20 cents a day. If I returned
If you don't do things well, how can you live up to the young master? I think everyone has the same idea as me."
"Second," Zhang Du paused, continued, "Second, the young master promised us that as long as we work hard for half a year, he can remove our status as slaves and turn us into civilians. At that time, we can go or stay.
, it’s up to us to choose.”
As he said that, Zhang Du showed a look of yearning on his face.
Wen Buren was shocked when he heard this.
"Pay slaves for working? And the wages are so high. This is the first time I've heard of it."
An adult living in Chang'an City can barely survive on 2 Wen per day, and can live well on 5 Wen per day.
These people get 10 Wen per day and live and eat in the furniture factory for free. As long as there are no other expenses, they can earn about 300 Wen a month, which is already a lot of money.
No wonder everyone exerts extra effort when working.
After a long time, Wen Buren said slowly: "What Du He did was indeed different from ordinary people. There are rumors outside that businessmen are chasing profits, which is what lowly people do, but who knew that Du He could support himself alone?
There are so many people.”
"It was not easy to get rid of the slave status in the Tang Dynasty, but with Du He's status, it will become easier."
The words were not spoken yet.
A figure flashed in at the door.
As soon as Wen Buren raised his head, his expression changed.
Because it was Lu Bu who walked in unexpectedly.
As soon as Lu Bu came in, he stared at Wen Buren.
Wen Buren was completely shocked by the other party's powerful aura and asked hurriedly: "Lu Bu, what do you want to do?"
Lu Bu pointed outside and said, "Today, a group of nerds came to make trouble in front of Laiguo's palace. The young master ordered me to investigate. However, I am not very familiar with Chang'an City, so I would like to ask Mr. Wen to lead the way and help investigate these people."
background."
Wen Buren took two steps back and shook his head hastily: "I can't help you with this matter. You can go on your own."
Wen Buren heard about this at noon.
Although they are just a group of scholars, who knows what great master is behind them.
He didn't want to participate at all.
Hearing this, Lu Bu stepped forward and said, "The young master said I would like to invite you to drink another day!"
"Not interested..." Wen Buren shook his head more firmly.
Lu Bu hesitated for a moment, then started to roll up his sleeves and said, "Then, the only choice is to use force."
As he spoke, he started to take action.
Wen Buren was shocked. Although he was a famous knight and the chief instructor of the palace, with a transcendent status, he could not stand up to Lu Bu's martial arts.
Besides, the injuries on his legs have not fully healed yet.
"Lu Bu, if you have something to say, please tell me." Wen Buren shouted loudly.
Lu Bu stared into Wen Buren's eyes and asked, "Then are you going or not?"
Wen Buren shook his head.
boom.
Zhang Du, who was standing next to him, felt his eyes blur as a white shadow flew out and hit the pillar hard. It was Wen Buren who was wearing white clothes.
"Cough cough cough..." Wen Buren's back hit the pillar, he sat limply on the ground, covered his chest, and coughed violently, "Lu Bu, I'm not done with you, you're too rude..."
Lu Bu grinned: "Mr. Wen, I ask you now, if you are willing to go with me to investigate this matter?"
"Okay! If you are ruthless, tell Du He that I have to drink good wine, otherwise I will never be done with him!"
Wen Buren started running slowly, with a sad look on his face, like an angry little daughter-in-law, walking behind Lu Bu.
When he saw Lu Bu walking into the heavy rain without an umbrella, Wen Buren couldn't help but cursed: "What a madman..."
…
Cheng Chumo is a typical stubborn guy.
Once he figures something out, not even nine cows can pull him back.
As for making a bet and teasing Wei Youran, Du He actually just said it casually and never thought about actually asking Cheng Chumo to provoke the aggressive Wei Youran.
It's a pity that this kid drank some wine and was drunk. No one can stop him, and anyone who stops him will get angry.
Cheng Chumo said angrily: "Brother, bring me some more wine. I'm going to get drunk today and then I'll go find that chubby girl Wei Youran tomorrow."
"I guarantee your satisfaction!"
Du He waved his hand, and the old man hurriedly brought out two jars of good wine.
This is the best liquor in Chang'an. Unfortunately, the taste cannot be compared with red wine.
Cheng Chumo, a fool, drank a whole jar by himself, while Qin Huaiyu and Du He only drank a token amount.
At some point, the rain stopped, the dark clouds dispersed, and the sun shone down.
Cheng Chumo lay on the table, snoring loudly.
