Datang Live Room

"Are these people taking stimulants? Are they working so hard?"

"Yes, this must be an extra performer, right? How much do you get for a day? Look at the wood they lifted. It must not be hollow, right? How many wood did they lift this time?"

"You just entered the live broadcast room upstairs, right? You know, the anchor treated them to meat buns this morning."

"You did this after eating meat buns? That's not true, right? What kind of buns? Dragon meat?"

"Hahaha, this anchor's setting is that he is in the Tang Dynasty. These workers are probably Zaochao who have never eaten meat buns in their entire lives. Do you think they can stop working hard?"

Yan Kai came to the construction site early in the morning and started live broadcasting since breakfast.

The effect is also very good. Although it is only the preliminary material processing, it is just two people pulling a big saw to cut the wood, which makes the people in the live broadcast room watch with gusto.

In the words of many water friends - relieve stress!

In particular, Yan Kai's live broadcast system has a very powerful sound collection capability. A big saw is pulling back and forth on the log, accompanied by the sound of woozy wootz.

People watching it feel like it's quite mechanical and repetitive, but they can't stop at all.

"Family members, who knows? I watched the big saw all morning and actually felt calm inside."

"This anchor knows how to live broadcast. I usually watch short videos that say a person builds a house by hand in the wild. They are all edited and fast-forwarded. Who knows if there is a team? Looking at the anchor, it is true."

"By the way, this anchor doesn't accept Hiroko and doesn't bring goods, so how can he make money?"

"Is it possible that the host has no intention of making money from live broadcasts? How much does it cost to hire so many extras for one day? Not to mention that there are master-level carpenters in it."

Yan Kai looked at these barrages and knew that he was suffering.

Hiroko can't pick it up, but he wants to bring the goods.

Regarding the abacus of Dalbergia rosewood last time, many people sent private messages asking themselves whether to sell it. The top one already said that he wanted to pay [-] yuan for his small yellow sandalwood car, so he could just buy it in seconds.

But Yan Kai couldn't find his little yellow car at all.

I guess we have to wait until the live broadcast room is upgraded again to see if there will be such a function.

I looked at the popularity of the live broadcast room. The popularity that was basically cleared because the popular mall purchased the materialized white paper finally increased a bit this morning and is now 13849/1000000.

If you keep it up, it will take about a few months to upgrade.

For lunch, there was still no broth as promised by Yan Laoer. Instead, stir-fried minced pork with pickled vegetables was prepared for everyone.

Yan Kai taught Sister Yan how to make sauerkraut after her family became rich.

These workers sweated a lot in the morning and needed to replenish their salt intake.

Add a tablespoon of diced pickled cabbage to stir-fry the minced meat on top of a large bowl of rice for each person. Mix it well and it will smell delicious!

It's just that this time no one dares to eat too much, just eat enough.

Yan Kai has already said that he will make pancakes for everyone in the evening, and eat these pickled vegetables and minced meat in them. It tastes delicious just thinking about it.

Everyone worked harder in the afternoon.

At this time Zheng Zhixun came over in a sedan.

"Mr. Yan, is everything going well here? But is there anything else you need?"

"If necessary..." Yan Kai thought for a moment and said, "Get me a big pot, one that can boil water."

With so many workers having to drink a lot of water a day, Yan Kai strictly prohibited them from drinking raw water.

When it comes to boiling water, the pot he has at home is too small. After boiling one pot and letting it cool down, these people will have nothing left for two or three mouthfuls each.

Large pots are usually not available, and for a large family like the Zheng family, because there are many people, the pots at home are also big, so he wants one to come over and boil water.

After understanding Yan Kai's needs, Butler Zheng sighed: "Master Yan is so kind to these workers!"

In the Zheng family, although he would not be harsh to the people below him, he was definitely aloof and would not think about them everywhere.

Especially when he heard that the Yan family arranged meals for workers, including at least one meat meal a day, this feeling became even deeper.

Zheng Zhixun didn't quite understand and asked Yan Kai: "Mr. Yan, they are not your family, why are you so concerned about them?"

Yan Kai thought for a while and said: "Isn't there a saying that if you want a horse to run, you have to give it grass? Look, if I let them eat and drink well, will their work be better than that of the farmers in your village? Are you working harder?"

This is where Zheng Zhixun was confused. He continued to ask Yan Kai: "So what Mr. Yan means is that we should also give farmers better food, so that they will work hard?"

"It's not that simple." Yan Kai patted him on the shoulder: "I will find a book for you in a few days. You should have some inspiration after reading it."

Zheng Zhixun looked at Yan Kai, feeling as if he were looking up at a high mountain, and bowed to the end and said.

"In that case, Zhixun should thank Mr. Yan first."

How did he know that Yan Kai himself knew everything about this kind of labor relationship and knew nothing about it?

Just put it aside and pretend to be cool with him!

Yan Kai actually felt that the villagers were here to help him build his house. He probably knew how much it cost to hire a worker for a day in modern times. Although this was the Tang Dynasty, just taking care of three meals already made him feel like he was occupying the house. What a bargain.

Although Yan Kai doesn't think he is a kind person, he still needs to have a basic moral bottom line. We are all ordinary people, why should we treat each other so harshly?

Looking at it now, I actually only spent a little money to buy meat and rice noodles, but in exchange for these villagers working hard.

The progress of the project is greatly increased, and your restaurant can be opened in advance, and then you can make money in advance.

Compared with the money that the restaurant can make if it opens a few days in advance, Yan Kai feels that the money spent on buying meat and rice noodles is nothing.

When he talked about books, Zheng Zhixun remembered the real purpose of coming today.

"Mr. Yan, why did you only give me the first volume of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that day?"

The first volume talks about the completion of the Tongque Terrace in Yecheng, and Cao Cao and all the civil and military officials had a banquet at the Tongque Terrace.

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang told Lu Su, who came to claim Jingzhou, that they could only return Jingzhou after acquiring Yizhou.

And then...and then nothing!

The Sun-Liu coalition had just defeated Cao Cao in Chibi. There were obviously cracks, but how could they disappear here?

Seeing this last night, he couldn't sleep all night. He suddenly sat up once in the middle of the night and shouted, "Why is it gone?"

The servant who served him thought that the young master had a fever again and was talking nonsense.

I fell asleep in a daze in the middle of the night, then got up and took someone to the construction site, wanting to ask Yan Kai what was going on.

"You've just finished reading it?" Yan Kai didn't expect Zheng Zhixun to read it so quickly. It wasn't that he didn't want to buy the upper and lower volumes together, but it was because this set of thread-bound books was too expensive in the mall.

He drew more than 100 paintings in the first volume alone. If he hadn't thought about building a building here and the apprentice was sick and bored, he wouldn't have been so cruel.

As a result, the other party came to urge for an update after reading it all. Did you vote for an update?

"Yes, I finished reading it overnight. It was so exciting that my heart was so excited." Zheng Zhixun was a little excited, and he felt that many of the strategies in the book were really great, and there were many interesting things to learn if you savored them carefully. Same experience.

"Mr. Yan, I wonder if I can have someone copy this book? I want to send it to my father to read."

"Copy? Then why not..." Yan Kai originally wanted to say why not print hundreds or thousands of copies and then go to Chang'an, Luoyang to sell them. According to him, he would definitely make a lot of money.

But he immediately realized that there was no movable type printing technology at this time. To print this book, a craftsman had to carve one page per page. After the carving was completed, who knows how many years have passed, and naturally it was not as fast as copying a copy.

Typography!

Modern people who have been to elementary school may know it, but now Yan Kai dare not bring it out.

This thing is different from waterwheels, abacus, wine making, etc. This is the real dragon slaying technique!

The reason why aristocratic families are powerful is actually because they have a monopoly on knowledge.

Only the children of aristocratic families and those who are dependent on them have the opportunity to have access to knowledge or books.

Because there was no movable type printing technology, it was too difficult to produce books. This is why many people borrowed books to copy the stories of the past.

Therefore, movable type printing is the real dragon-slaying art. Once it appears, it will break the monopoly of this kind of knowledge by aristocratic families.

When the time comes, let alone other aristocratic families, even the Zheng family may not be able to accommodate him.

If this thing is to be taken out, it can only be given to the person who most wants to break the family's monopoly on knowledge!
