"After taking the shape out of the steamer, the technique should still be slow, and pay attention to the gap between the tenons to ensure the overall force..."
"Yes, Shou Li."
Some wood materials need to be put into a steamer when being bent, such as wooden wheels, rattan shields, bamboo armor, etc.
It's just that these technical methods are a bit difficult for the illiterate people in Baisha Village. Therefore, most of the apprentices who learn advanced woodworking techniques from Li Jie are members of Shang Wuji's tribe.
When Chief Li showed his hand, Shang Wuji felt bad. It was not because of Li Jie's carpentry skills, but because the Shang clan had completely become the boss's licking dogs.
But there is nothing that can be done about it. The technology that Li Jie developed is considered "family inheritance" or "not passed down" among all countries in this era.
I have never heard of someone like Mr. Li teaching "secret techniques" to others casually.
"The tenons don't need to be too complicated. We don't have many uses in Yinxiang for the time being. When the furniture is sold to the Central Plains, I will teach you new ones."
"Yes, Shou Li!"
The Shang apprentices are very excited. They can learn new postures every day when they come to work...so happy.
"Well, you continue."
After inspecting a circle of carpentry workshops, the main progress at present is rattan armor and rattan brand. Oiling rattan is better, but the output of tung oil is not high, and it is not cost-effective to buy it from outside. Li Jie’s temporary method is to oil rattan.
After the two-step treatment, carbon black is burned to enhance the surface hardness.
The protection against arrows is good, but the protection against spear punctures is poor.
However, the equipment of the "Crocodile Man" is a little different. It is lined with leather armor, and the elite captain also has metal sheets as protection. As long as the ordinary spearman does not kill the "Crocodile Man" with one blow, he will 100% die in the "Crocodile Man"
Crocodile Man" hands.
There are many training items for "Crocodile Man". In addition to the regular formation of spears, there are also a variety of weapons for small-scale combat, such as sword and shield hands, rattan hands, etc.
Under normal circumstances, as long as the boss doesn't cheat an elite person like this, nothing can be done to him.
However, my uncle Shang Wuji always feels that the current boss is a bit of a cheat and has too many tricks.
"Shou Li, regarding this matter in Amancheng, is it...should we send envoys there first?"
"What kind of envoy should I send? I will help Shang Ji get back her dowry. Is it wrong? I still need an envoy?!"
Mayor Li frowned, wondering if his uncle was out of his mind.
"This...this clan is, after all, related to the Yunyan clan by in-laws. I..."
"Wuji, your surnames are all 'Shang'. Why, the Shang family of Yinxiang is not included in the count?"
"..."
You fucking said that, and I can’t fucking refute it!
Shang Wuji looked aggrieved. It's really hard to say that he has the Shang surname of the Yunyan surname. He is the Shang surname, the Yinxiang Shang surname.
The first person to establish a sect, if it becomes the boss's club in the future... No, if the company gets bigger, then he must have extraordinary vision and extraordinary knowledge.
If the boss cheats him, then obviously the Yunyan family won't mind bitching him for decades.
Decades later, Shang Wuji died and disappeared, becoming just a passing joke.
After countless thoughts passed through his mind, Shang Wuji raised his hand and made up his mind: "I will obey Shou Li's order!"
Gritting his teeth, he decided to finish the sex appointment with tears in his eyes.
But who the hell would have thought that Li's cannon was so powerful. Shang Wuji felt that he was the one who was fucked to death and suffered such inhumane ravages.
"That's right..."
Mayor Li patted his uncle's shoulder, then stretched out his five fingers and clenched them tightly into fists, making a rattling sound. "I want the elephant in Amancheng; I still want the white deer in Yancheng." Yes! You can’t have your cake and eat it too, it’s all stinky bullshit. A true warrior dares to face a life that is so exciting!”
The person who shook his body was not Township Chief Li, but his uncle.
Shang Wuji was affected by Li Jie's words, and his emotions were surging again. He immediately took out a small notebook and said quickly: "What can't you have at the same time?"
"Bear's paw."
"Is there any allusion?"
"I don't remember this... I think about it, it seems like who said it? I can't remember, it's probably 'fish, I want it, bear's paws are also what I want; you can't have both, and give up the fish' And the one who takes the bear's paw is...', that's what they say. When I was studying, there was this calligraphy hanging in the corridor of the school museum."
"Sincerity leads to reason."
Shang Wuji nodded, "I wonder what the sage said?"
"Maybe it's our principal? Forget it, this is not important. The important thing is that this is right for people who have no choice. But do I have no choice now? As for the things in Amancheng, I People have already figured it out. You bastard, you still want to hack my four elephants!"
Mayor Li, who had his hands on his hips, suddenly became furious, "Someone hacked my four blenders. How could I get around him? I made him spit out twice as much on the spot."
Shang Wuji didn't understand a word of Li Jie's words. He only felt that his boss was in a very excited mood.
"If you don't have the strength, then of course 'it's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge'; if you have the strength, you'll get revenge on the spot!"
As he spoke, Li Jie felt proud and pointed at his property with his thumb, "'Crocodile Man' was trained by Bai? 'Yongfu' was raised by Bai? If you eat mine, you have to work for me!" Do you think so, Wuji?"
"Hmm, um, um... Where does the phrase 'It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge' come from?"
"I told you it's useless for you to remember this!"
"It's useful. I've been to Suzhou several times and it's very useful."
Shang Wuji put the little notebook away, he would not fail to remember it. When he went to Gusu to brag to others, he would make a series of flirtatious remarks, which shocked the celebrities in the capital. I feel that the patriarch of the Shang clan in Yinxiang is really knowledgeable and capable.
Besides, as for the story of "Pengpi Shenghui", who was the great butler of Yunting Wugeng in the past? Now people also know a little bit about his "fake name". Of course, this "fake name" is really fake, but it can be blown as many times as it needs to be There are many, and with the support of Yunting Wu Geng, he has naturally become a "celebrity".
It is still ten thousand miles away from being a "celebrity", but the premise of "celebrity" is "celebrity" and "scholarship". The reputation of Yunting Arbitration in Suzhou is more or less much better than those useless rookies.
"If you say it's useful, then it will be useful."
Township Chief Li was helpless. He tried to persuade his uncle countless times, but he refused to change his mind and stopped trying to persuade him.
"Then Wuji now supports me in going to Yancheng to help Shang Ji get her dowry, right?"
"A-mei's dowry money is the private property shared by Shou Li and A-mei. It is reasonable and reasonable for Shou Li to go and ask for it."
"Well, yes, that's what I think too. I'll ask for it tomorrow, and I'll also call the arbitrator, so... I'll just let him be the mediator and judge. This is reasonable, right?"
"This matter is not difficult for Mr. Zhong, and he will definitely agree to it."
"That's good. After a while, you can go help and tell the referee, and then I'll ask him to go to Amancheng together in the morning. It might take a whole day to go back and forth."
Looking at Li Jie's slightly weird look, his uncle suddenly became excited. He always felt that arbitration, an old friend, might have to step on the shit...
