Crossing town house man and wife

After listening to Yan Heng's story of Lu Liang's life, and knowing that he also formed a powerful cavalry, and also came up with the allusion of "Three Chapters of the Covenant" during the conquest, Wu Ming became more and more sure that this guy also came through it!

In the next moment, Wu Ming was attracted by Yan Heng's beard.

No. [-] time-traveling man Lu Liang plagiarized Liu Bang's allusions, and Yan Heng obviously has the shadow of Xiang Yu. Could it be that these two guys are the Han Taizu and Chu Overlord that were revised by history?

Just as Wu Ming was thinking, Yan Heng pinched his cheek and asked in an unhappy tone, "What are you thinking?"

"You." Wu Ming immediately smiled.

"What do you miss me?" Yan Heng's tone immediately softened a lot.

"I wonder if you killed Lu Liang after you were reborn." Wu Ming said, "Since you took advantage of the foresight, you must make good use of it."

"It's not that easy." Yan Heng shook his head and smiled wryly, "Lu Liang has already joined the Meng family army at this moment, if I send someone to assassinate, he must first infiltrate the Longxi army camp. How could Meng Tian believe that I just want to kill an unknown person? He will definitely think that I want to get my hands on Longxi and plot something wrong!"

Meng Tian is not dead yet?

Wu Ming couldn't help clicking his tongue.He knew that Zhao Tuo lived to be one hundred and three years old, but he didn't expect that after the time-traveling man rescued Meng Tian, ​​this guy also changed his fate of dying early and became a long-lived man.

"Lv Liang is actually nothing." Yan Heng put his arms around Wu Ming and said confidently, "If it wasn't for me in the previous life who had no intention of making a fortune, and let Lu Liang take advantage of it, he might not have been able to reach Xianyang smoothly."

"So it's 'my' fault?" Wu Ming immediately rolled his eyes back.

"Of course not!" Yan Heng hurriedly begged for forgiveness, since there was no one else in the room anyway, he didn't mind lying down and being a minor.

Wu Ming curled his lips and asked instead, "Tell me, how many years will it be before Lu Liang's rebellion?"

Yan Heng hesitated for a moment, and finally said awkwardly, "...ten years."

"What?!" Wu Ming immediately raised his eyes, "Then what about the world chaos you mentioned? Could it be ten years later?!"

"That would be earlier in the morning." Yan Heng smiled coyly, "Five years later."

Wu Ming was speechless for a moment, wanting to grab Yan Heng's neck and shake him severely.

Yan Heng kept putting on an anxious look, and Wu Ming thought that chaos had already occurred, and that it was imminent for all the heroes to rise together.

Things that will happen five years later, why are you so anxious now? !

Wu Ming immediately pushed Yan Heng away, and said viciously: "Don't say anything more, eat!"

After lunch, Wu Ming's anger was still not completely dissipated, he kicked Yan Heng out of the inner room, and went to bed alone for an afternoon nap.

Yan Heng also knew that he was in the wrong, so he didn't dare to go in to harass him again, so he just called Aunt Lai over and asked her if she knew about the small textile yard that his wife had set up.

"Returning to the lord, I just provided a candidate for the wife, and the subsequent things have been watched by the tortoise."

Yan Heng was greatly surprised by Aunt Lao's reply.

"Tortoise shell? But the youngest maid beside Madam?" Yan Heng asked immediately.

"Master, that's right." Aunt Lao nodded and said, "Although I copied the charter in your hand, it was Tortoise who recorded it and organized it into rules, but Tortoise's literacy time is too short... ..."

"Needless to say, I understand." Yan Heng said indifferently.

What kind of master is there is what kind of servant, tortoise shell's two handwriting must be as shameful as her master.

"Does the lord need me to call the tortoise?" Aunt Lao asked tentatively.

"Let's invite Miss He's over here first." Yan Heng ordered, "When she comes over, then ask Tortoise to come in together."

"promise."

Wu Ming thought that Yan Heng was going to go to war this winter, so he eagerly intervened in the wool business, just to speed up the work efficiency and let Yan Heng's men get more warm materials before going out.

But Yan Heng has actually made corresponding preparations. The reason why he buys live sheep is sheepskin rather than wool.

Most of the live sheep have been slaughtered on the spot after purchase, and the sheepskin is made into leather boots, fur jackets, and fur hats. The mutton is distributed to military camps in various places, and only the wool is sent back to Xiangping.

This is why Yan Heng trusts He Qianqian with the matter of wool spinning.

It would be great if she can do this well, but even if she can't do it well, it won't bring much loss to Yan Heng, it's just a lesson.

But since Wu Ming stepped in and came up with a way to make things better, Yan Heng didn't want to stand by and watch.

After He Qianqian came over, Yan Heng asked someone to call Tortoise over, and asked her to go over to assist He Qianqian for a few days, and reorganize the wool weaving business.

To Yan Heng's surprise, before He Qianqian said anything, Tortoise poked his neck and rejected Yan Heng's arrangement.

"The servant girl is serving the lady. The lady never ordered the maidservant to leave, and the maidservant did not dare to leave the lady without permission."

Yan Heng was speechless for a while, intending to teach the little lady a lesson, but worried that after the lesson was over, the wife who just kicked him out of the house would get mad at him again.

Turning his mind, Yan Heng suddenly realized that he had a strange fear of "Ruan Cheng" at some point.

Is this the so-called fear of guilt?

Yan Heng was full of emotions in his heart, but his face remained calm, he raised his hand and asked someone to find Aunt Lao, and asked her to invite his wife over.

Wu Ming had really fallen asleep right now, and after being woken up, he came to Yan Heng's study with a stinking face.

On the way over, Aunt Lao had already briefly explained the reason why Yan Heng invited him over. After entering the door, Wu Ming didn't talk nonsense to a few people, and directly asked Yan Heng if he wanted to call Tortoise over to help.

Yan Heng nodded in agreement.

Wu Ming immediately said: "She was useless in the past, it's better to transfer the twenty female workers in the yard, even teach and supervise, and directly support a workshop."

"Madam, did you have a plan?" Yan Heng raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Bring the few pages I gave you." Wu Ming stretched out his right hand to Yan Heng.

Yan Heng was slightly taken aback, but he still stood up and found out the four pages.

Wu Ming took the four pages and handed them to He Qianqian, "The rules are already written on it, what you need to do next is to find a place, recruit people, and then act according to the above rules. This year's wool is less, the key points It is to accumulate experience, the peasant women will stop using them, and the wool will be taken back, and the manpower will be transferred directly from the sheriff's mansion. If there is not enough, the sheriff will send people to borrow from other people's homes. of."

"The spinning wheel and loom..." He Qianqian asked tentatively.

"What's the use, don't be too ambitious." Wu Ming said coldly, "The biggest problem on your side is people. If you don't solve the problem of people, even if you give you the best spinning wheel, you won't be able to spin qualified wool."

During lunch, Yan Heng had already informed Wu Ming of He Qianqian's problem. As soon as Wu Ming heard it, He Qianqian knew that He Qianqian must not have given these peasant women training and established rules. The peasant women could only work by experience and intuition. Naturally, wool can be of any shape.

"First read the regulations and standards above carefully, think carefully about any omissions in your current arrangement, and then make a new regulation." Wu Ming continued, "Also, the waist of the mosquito is not strangled, but the waist of the pig. It’s not just bragging, don’t always think about finishing everything in one go. You should also have read books and know how to read, and you should always know what is called step by step and what is the priority.”

He Qianqian's face turned red with embarrassment, she bit her lip, and finally couldn't help but said: "Madam of the sheriff, Qianqian just wants to do her own meager strength, not to live and eat for nothing in the sheriff's mansion." I'm idle, so I begged my cousin for this matter. If the county magistrate's wife thinks that Qianqian has ulterior motives and can't bear the responsibility, she can let my cousin be relieved of Qianqian's errand..."

"Then don't do it." Before He Qianqian could finish speaking, Yan Heng interrupted coldly.

He Qianqian was taken aback, apparently not expecting Yan Heng to interrupt suddenly.

"I will send another person to take charge of this matter, and you don't need to intervene." Yan Heng said coldly, "Send Miss He out."

"Cousin—" He Qianqian suddenly turned pale with shock.

But before she could speak up to defend herself, the aunt in Yan Heng's yard had already stepped forward, pulled out the four-page paper with the regulations and standards from her hand with a smile, and handed it to Aunt Lao who was beside her, and then He stretched out his hand to "send" He Qianqian out of the study.

As soon as He Qianqian left, Yan Heng turned to Wu Ming and said, "Ma'am, don't worry. I thought she really wanted to do something, but I forgot that a woman like her has been in the backyard since she was a child, and she learned all about intrigue and competition for favor." The art of flattery, how can there be the ability to do serious things."

"Actually, she has done a good job." Wu Ming touched his nose in embarrassment, and realized it belatedly.

He Qianqian obviously thought that Wu Ming's meddling in the wool textile business was deliberately targeting her, so he couldn't help but talk back.And Yan Heng diverged his thinking even more, associating He Qianqian's actions with fighting for favor.

Wu Ming didn't deliberately target He Qianqian, but he did intend to show off.

At any rate, he is also a person who has experienced large-scale industrial production. Seeing that someone insists on going around the small-scale peasant economy without taking the right path of scale and standardization, it feels like seeing a picture frame crooked but not being able to straighten it out. Same, too tortured!

"Ma'am, you don't need to intercede for her. 'Good' and 'good' are not the same thing." Yan Heng picked up those pages again, thought for a while, "To tell you the truth, Ma'am, I don't need this batch of wool. Not urgently, but if I can get the wool to come in handy this winter, I can't possibly lay it off."

"You want me to clean up the mess for her?" Wu Ming twitched his lips.

"I just want to borrow some manpower from Madam." Yan Heng said solemnly, "For example, those twenty maids."

"Before borrowing someone, let's talk about how much wool you have, whether you need blankets or pants more." Wu Ming glanced at the tortoise shell and Aunt Lao beside him, and sighed heavily.

According to Yan Heng, if this batch of wool can be used to make some serious and useful warm products, it must be given priority to the army, and sweaters and trousers are the first choice.Years ago, he asked people to try on some sets of sweaters and trousers woven by Luo Daozi, and everyone was full of praise. It couldn't be better to be alone.

But in this day and age, there is no machine for fast knitting. Only relying on the handwork of women, I am afraid that all the women in the city must be mobilized to meet the needs of the army. Whether the wool bought is enough is another matter.

After some discussion, Wu Ming persuaded Yan Heng to only supply sweaters and trousers to a dozen scouts, and to weave the rest of the wool into pullover-style scarves, giving priority to meeting the needs of the cavalry.

After calculating all aspects, Wu Mingcai reached out to Yan Heng to ask for someone.

This time, Wu Ming is still multi-pronged.

As usual, he asked Aunt Lao to select some skillful servants from the newly selected servants to learn how to knit sweaters, and send the rest to spinning.The fifteen female workers who were in charge of spinning and knitting sweaters before were all promoted to technical directors, who specially taught these new servants how to use the spinning wheel and how to knit standard woolen fabrics with two bamboos.The tortoise shell took on the role of supervisor, responsible for recording daily production and major events.

Five of the ten looms were originally idle, and now they are all out of use, and they are all sent back to Luo Daozi, asking him to find someone to do research and development. Wire.

Of course the spinning wheels were not enough, luckily Luo Daozi made a few more secretly, and after being discovered by Yao Zhong, he sent them all over.But even so, it was still a drop in the bucket. Wu Ming could only let Yan Heng send people to collect some hand spinning wheels from the people for temporary use.

The wool distributed to the peasant women was collected door to door.In order to preserve the reputation of the Sheriff's Mansion, Wu Ming didn't bother about the quality. He paid for the part that has been spun into wool by weight. There is not much difference, and they both give two and a half money for hard work.

In the blink of an eye, another five days passed, and the small workshop has been transformed into a small factory. A room is a workshop, and the servants who work in the yard have the capable appearance of the weaving women of later generations.It may not be obvious in spirit, but her attire is already different from that of other servants. Jewelry such as hairpins and rings have basically disappeared, and her clothes have become more concise and simple.

When Wu Ming noticed this change, he immediately slapped his head and asked Aunt Lao to find someone to cut a new suit with narrow sleeves for them, and added a pair of sleeves and an apron to ensure that they could work more comfortably. convenient.
