In Zhuluhou Mansion, there is only one rule when it comes to food, which is not to waste it. It doesn't matter if you eat more. Like Li Chongyi, one person can feed more than five people. Li Mu has never said a word. But the same thing is unforgivable.
, that is a waste.
It is not allowed to eat half a bowl of rice, but fill a bowl with rice that is uneatable and intends to throw it away.
This rule is the first rule that Li Mu obeys in his life. When he was in the orphanage, the old director set the rule. Maybe it is a habit developed since childhood, or maybe it is a thought about the old director. Li Mu's previous life
In my twenty-eight years of life, I have almost never wasted food.
He is the kind of person who drinks yogurt and will definitely lick it.
After coming to this world, Li Mu has always been very tolerant to his 'own people', but this rule has still been retained. When it was implemented, there was no resistance. In the Zhuluhou Mansion, only Dugujiu was born.
, the others all came from very humble backgrounds, and were used to living without enough to eat, so they did not need to set rules and would not waste easily.
Dugujiu was indeed a picky eater before, but after arriving at Zhuluhou Mansion, he also changed his picky eating habits under the influence of the surrounding environment. He was completely forced to do so, because he often ate with Li Chongyi, a little slower.
, there is nothing to eat, so there is no need to be picky about food.
After dinner, Li Mu called Wei Yingluo and Zhenzhu to the back house and announced his decision.
"Over at the craftsman's workshop, I have asked Xiaojiu to notify him and everything has been arranged. You will move there tomorrow. During the day, the craftsmen basically have work to do and do not have time to go to class. For the time being, you only need to attend dinner during the day.
Finally, when all the craftsmen have finished work, just teach them for an hour. Start with pinyin, then common words. After common words, teach a little arithmetic briefly. As for the day, come to Jingdongji in the morning and teach these
Once your child can read, you can move around freely in the afternoon and do whatever you want."
After Li Mu finished speaking, he took out the money bag he had prepared from his sleeve and put it on the table: "Here are twenty taels of silver, which is an advance payment for you and Pearl next month. Ten taels of it are for the two of you.
Next month's monthly payment is still ten taels, which is considered as your teaching allowance, so it should be enough."
"Thank you, Lord Marquis!" Pearl grabbed the purse and said with great joy. She had long wanted to leave the Zhulu Marquis Mansion. If she left here, she wouldn't have to look at Li Zhien's eyes or be shunned by her.
Wei Yingluo thought more. She looked at Li Mu, pursed her lips, and said, "Master Hou, are you sending us away?" Before Li Mu could speak, Wei Yingluo said again: "If it's because of the housekeeper,
, we can apologize to her, can you please not send us away?"
"What are you apologizing for?" Li Mu asked curiously: "What does this have to do with Zhien? Xiaoying, if I remember correctly, you said in the hall that day that you wanted to be a female professor. Now I am Yuan
I have fulfilled your wish and asked you to be a female professor and teach craftsmen and children how to read. Is it possible that you don’t want to be a female professor and like to be a maid?”
"I..." Wei Yingluo's mood was a little complicated. Li Mu's words actually hit her mark. After seeing the magic of Pinyin, Wei Yingluo became very curious about Li Mu. She wanted to stay with Li Mu.
Let's see what other magical abilities he has.
Pearl and Wei Yingluo grew up together, and by looking at her expression, you can tell what she is thinking. Originally, the young lady was old and in love, and it was normal for her to have a son she liked. Without these changes, Pearl would have been a hundred supporters
Wei Yingluo and Li Mu are together.
But now their identities are different, Wei Yingluo has become a maid, and Li Mu is now a popular prince among the government and the public. He has a wife and concubines. With the current identity of the lady, if she follows him, she may not even have a name.
He won't get any points. So now Pearl doesn't want Wei Yingluo to commit to Li Mu. It would be a good thing to draw a clear line early.
Worried that Wei Yingluo said the wrong thing, Pearl hurriedly took over the topic and said: "Master Hou, my little... Xiaoying is so happy. It has always been her long-cherished wish to be a female professor. Master Hou is such a kind person, and treats her well."
We servants are better than relatives, Xiao, Xiaoying, if you don’t thank the Marquis, why are you standing there dazed?"
As Pearl spoke, she winked at Wei Yingluo and bumped her waist with her elbow.
Wei Yingluo was urged by her, and she didn't know where she got the courage. She closed her eyes tightly and said loudly: "Master Marquis, can I not go to the craftsman's workshop and stay in the house?"
When Pearl heard this, she sighed helplessly. It was over, the young lady started to get sick again. What on earth was going on in her head at this critical moment!
Li Mu frowned and looked at her and said, "Do you really want to be a maid?"
Wei Yingluo shook her head vigorously. After saying the first sentence, she felt much happier and no longer nervous. She said: "Master Hou, I like the atmosphere in the house. Everyone lives together, just like a family. I can't bear to leave here."
.Besides, one is in the west and the other is in the east of Jingdong Market. If I live in Craftsman’s Workshop, it would be so far to go to Jingdong Market, which may cause delays."
"Our Zhuluhou Mansion is right between the two, and the distance to either side is almost the same. I can go to teach the children in the morning, and then go to teach the craftsmen in the evening."
Li Mu frowned even more tightly. He didn't expect that Wei Yingluo would be unwilling to leave the Zhulu Hou Mansion. Li Mu secretly looked at Wei Yingluo's red face and murmured to himself, is this little girl really attracted to me?
Are you ready? No, I, Li Mu, am such a chaste person, I will never let her get her wish!
"But if that's the case, after giving lessons to the craftsmen, I'm afraid you won't have time to come back before the workshop is closed. If you live in the craftsman's workshop, you can go home after class and don't have to leave the workshop. Wouldn't it be more convenient?"
"This..." Wei Yingluo wanted to say, Lord Marquis, you can give me a badge, but if she said it like this, it would be a little too obvious. After all, she is a lady, and she can't say it out loud.
Pearl quickly said: "Yes, Xiaoying, don't embarrass the Marquis."
"But……"
"That's it!" Li Mu waved his hand and said: "If you like the atmosphere in the house, come back more often if you have nothing to do. After returning from class in Jingdong Ji, you can go to the house for lunch at noon. It's not like we can't meet each other.
We're here, your room in the mansion is reserved for you. Okay, let's go, pack up your belongings, and go to the Western Market to buy whatever you need later, and let the big guy arrange a carriage for you."
Seeing that Li Mu had already made up his mind, Wei Yingluo couldn't help showing a disappointed look, which made people look pitiful. Pearl was worried that if Wei Yingluo was left here again, she would say something mean-spirited, so she quickly pulled her to salute Li Mu, and pulled her away.
He went out with her.
Li Mu looked at Wei Yingluo at the door and looked back three times, feeling a little unbearable. But he couldn't help it. As an outstanding man, he was destined to be loved by thousands of girls. Did he have to put them all in his room? Wouldn't that be like that?
Became a stallion?
How can I, Li Mu, become that kind of person!
Li Mu casually picked up Bai Qiaoqiao's bronze dressing mirror, looked at his blurred face in the mirror, and couldn't help but curse.
"You cruel girl killer, you are really a little hooligan whose heart is set on fire..."
mirror?
Li Mu raised his eyebrows, put down the bronze mirror, closed his eyes, summoned the system, and learned the formula for the mirror.
"Make a mirror! When my wife comes back, give her a surprise!!"
…
The mirror is an important prop in "The Legend of the Tang Dynasty". It is one of the special items in the miscellaneous items, and the explosion rate of the blueprint is also very low. For merchants in the game, it can be called a stable zone
Something to earn income from.
Because it is one of the necessary items for the ‘marriage system’ in the game.
If the characters in the game want to get married, they need to complete a prerequisite task. One of the tasks requires you to bring a mirror to the matchmaker.
First, a bronze mirror is given to the player. The matchmaker said that this mirror was not good and could not clearly see the bride's handsome appearance, so she asked the player to use another mirror. Then the second time, the player had to use a mirror made by the deputy job system.
Mirrors in reality are made of silver nitrate plated on glass.
In the game, making a mirror requires a piece of glass, one tael of silver, and a silver-plated catalyst. After learning the recipe, the silver-plated catalyst can be purchased in the system store.
Li Mu had learned how to make glass before. After buying a silver-plated catalyst, he made the mirror easily. After making it, Li Mu was shocked. In the game, one tael of silver can only make a copper surface.
Mirror. Now the result of his experiment is that one tael of silver can only make a mirror, but it can make a one meter square mirror.
A square meter mirror can be cut into dozens of pieces like the vanity mirror Bai Qiaoqiao uses.
Calculating the cost, a mirror costs about dozens of dollars.
So cheap?
Li Mu frowned and thought for a while, feeling that the price of glass products cannot be lowered so low. You must know that the perfume bottles he made are so small that they are only one or two. The key to such a large mirror is so clear, dozens of
It's absolutely not possible to write a letter.
After thinking for a long time, Li Mu was so kind-hearted that he set a price of five taels.
Mirrors are not a necessity. Ordinary people are busy all day long and have no time to care about what they look like. At least you have to be a wife or young lady from a wealthy family to have the need to use a mirror. Therefore,
The sales volume of this thing will not be very high. According to the effect compared with the bronze mirror, the price of selling a bronze mirror is about five times. No matter how expensive it is, many people will probably be reluctant to part with it.
In fact, the customer's willingness or unwillingness is not the main reason for Li Mu's pricing. The main reason is his conscience. The cost of this thing is really too low, and I am embarrassed to ask for a high price. Although the cost of perfume is also low, there are so many of them anyway.
Here are the dried flowers. For one tael of silver per square meter, the profit margin is almost a hundred times. It’s really embarrassing.
I'm thin-skinned, what should I do?
Li Mu looked at himself in the mirror and sighed, weakness, this is weakness. How can you walk in this cruel world if you are too kind and thin-skinned?
"well!"
Li Mu sighed, bought a glass knife from the system store, and started cutting the glass.
For the sake of convenience, he cut all squares. He first made a few large ones and saved them for the palace tomorrow to give gifts. Then he cut out a dozen small ones and gave them to Xiaozhu and the others later. There was half left, which was just right.
I will leave it to my wife to make do with it first. When I have time in a few days, I will get a full-length mirror and put it next to the bed. I will light a candle at night and look at the person in the mirror when I am happy...
Can't think about it anymore, it's easy to think about it again 404.
Li Mu gathered his thoughts and put the cut glass mirror aside. He also found good jujube wood, made a few frames and embedded the mirror in it. After all the work was done, he took a deep breath, lay down on the rocking chair, and went
A piece of beef jerky was thrown into his mouth.
"Master, we are back!"
Li Zhien's voice came from outside. She didn't dare to go directly to Li Mu's studio, so she always said hello outside.
"Come in, I'll show you something good."
"What a good thing..." Li Zhien pushed the door open and came in. A mirror was placed in front of her and she was so frightened that she exclaimed. She had never seen herself so clearly before. She was a little scared for no reason and stood at the door without daring to move.
Li Mu stood up and took her hand, smiling: "Are you scared by yourself? Isn't this just a mirror?"
"How come it's so clear...do I look like this?"
Holding Li Mu's hand, Li Zhien calmed down. She came to the mirror, looked at herself in the mirror, and suddenly tilted her head to the left. She in the mirror also tilted her head. Li Zhien laughed and said: "
Master, it’s really me, I’m so good-looking.”
"You can't be so arrogant, but my Zhien is indeed pretty." Li Mu smiled, hugged her over, kissed her, and said, "Go and ask Xiaozhu and the others to come over and give one to each of them. The biggest one is for Madam.
, I will take it back later. I will take the smaller one to the palace tomorrow and give it to the Queen and Concubine Yang. I will also give one to my mother..."
Li Zhien pouted and said, "And your Mrs. Peony, don't forget it."
"Ouch, where's the strong vinegar smell?"
"No way!" Li Zhien broke away from Li Mu's arms, stuck out his tongue and ran to inform. Li Mu shook his head, packed up his tools, and shouted. Li Chongyi came in from the outside and picked up the largest mirror.
, returned to the back house with Li Mu.
Dugujiu came here with Li Chongyi. When he saw the mirror in the studio, he hesitated and secretly picked up a small one. Before Xiaozhu and the others came, he took off the mask and looked at the picture in the mirror.
With a delicate and pretty face like a woman, she murmured: "So I look like this. Alas, it would be great if there was a woman who looked like me."
Dugujiu sighed, put on the mask again, and put the small mirror into his arms.
…
Chang'an West.
A camel team is heading towards Chang'an.
"I saw it! We've arrived at Chang'an's city wall!"
The people at the front of the team shouted excitedly.
The sound alerted a heroic female knight in the center of the team. She stepped forward on her horse, took a look, and said loudly: "Speed up a little bit, the city gate will be closed soon. Let's enter the city before the city gate closes!"
