The supervisor is calling the roll. The items made this month, which are not custom-made and routine, are all here. They are considered to be the items completed by most of the craftsmen of the Banking Bureau this month.

Because there are enough craftsmen, these are not things that come out of the assembly line. Now, the number is still quite a lot.

This is not all, most craftsmen have some things that take longer to make and cannot be delivered this month. If such things are in pairs, one must be kept and wait for the other Only when they are finished can they be handed in both, otherwise it is not beautiful to hand in one alone.

This can be regarded as some kind of unspoken rule.

The ladies in the palace competed for beauty, and each of the things they chose wanted to be unique, but this kind of uniqueness was too demanding for the craftsmen. The education level of the craftsmen was not because Ji Mo belittled them. It’s really better than being illiterate. Those who are self-motivated may find opportunities to learn more characters. Those who don’t have that meaning can at most know their own name and number words, and the others will be bye.

Under such circumstances, it is really impossible to expect these craftsmen to be creative and to have a steady stream of fresh patterns made into new-style hairpins.

Maybe some people will make that style of hairpin all their lives, but if you ask him to change it, he won't be able to do it.

For example, butterfly hairpins can be made with two wings, but not with half wings. What should I do?

This kind of situation can't be clearly stated, the lady above wants it, you say here that you can't do it, you can't do it, you can't think of a way to do it!

They don't care so much, as long as they have good-looking hairpins, most of them can't do it if they are really asked to draw flowers by themselves.

For craftsmen, this also means that a clever woman can't cook without rice. There is no stock in the stomach, and there is nothing else in the mind. What should I do?

The best way is to make at least one pair of jewelry directly, so as to eliminate the idea of ​​some empresses wanting to be alone at the root. It is best to hand in a relatively large amount. You have it and I have it , Of course, it is artificially made, and each hairpin will definitely be different in subtle places. In addition, the gemstones used for inlaying treasures are different, and the gold and silver threads used for filigree are different, which can also make some distinctions.

Let the masters above get used to the same style, and they will only work hard on accessories, with different nets and the like, or inlaid with different beads and silk flowers, etc., so as to make changes, so as to avoid confusion. Make things difficult for the artisans below.

Another point is that in terms of quantity, "four" is a taboo, even the number "forty" cannot appear, so in addition to the supervision of the supervisor, the craftsmen below will also pay attention to see how much the total amount has been made. Either stop when you are approaching "forty", or stop after crossing "forty".

At the beginning of each month, the people above will come to collect the hairpins made by everyone and gather them together. Take butterfly hairpins as an example, double-winged, half-winged, four-winged, single, double, three... all can be used. Classified as butterfly hairpins, the supervisors of each room counted the number of their own, and then followed the summary of other rooms, and finally handed in more.

When Ji Mo heard such a roll call for the first time, he was a little silly, trying to deduce how many empresses there were in the emperor's harem from the number of these jewelry.

It was only later that I learned that the things they made were not distributed to the ladies at the beginning, or only a part of them were distributed like a monthly example. According to the things they made, they were divided into several classes, and then distributed one by one according to the rank of the girls. , and the remaining part is in the income treasury, waiting for when it will be distributed in the name of rewards.

The range of personnel distributed is not limited to the empresses in the palace, there are also some wives, which can be regarded as the mighty grace of the emperor.

The above ones are considered ordinary models, and the real treasures still depend on customized ones.

There are also two types of this kind of customization, one is routine customization, which is related to the rank and style of the empress, such as the phoenix hairpin worn by the queen, and the peony hairpin worn by the imperial concubine.Get new ones on time.

The other is custom made.The emperor dotes on a certain concubine, and suddenly thinks what kind of hairpin the other party will wear, so he will give orders to the lower head, and the emperor makes requests, such as "elegant", "plain" and "gorgeous", and the lower head will show the pattern , as soon as several patterns are produced, they are submitted to the emperor for selection, and when the emperor has selected them, he will start to make them.

This kind of thing happens occasionally, it depends on whether the emperor is willing to have more fun in the boudoir.

In addition, there are some favored concubines who are being favored and have their own ideas. They don't want to wear those ordinary hairpins. Then make it into jewelry and the like.

This kind, in fact, is a bit of an arrogance, but I can't help but there are always some favorite concubines who are willing to catch the emperor's attention with these different accessories, so they do it from time to time.

You have what I have, and I have to have it. There is a tendency to compare each other, which is difficult to contain.

In addition, it is a new product.

For example, when Ji Mo came here, he made that pearly hairpin. Because it is a new product, it can also be presented up for people to enjoy. When the superior likes it, he directly asks for more hairpins like this, and the subordinates will do it.

It can also be regarded as customization, and it does not follow the usual routine, and there are many extra rewards.

This reward is not only money, but also a value, and even a personal capital. Even the overseer will take a high look at those who have won the reward. Although they know who likes the hairpin, if they offend this person, the other party will not do it again. Although he was punished, the supervisor could not escape the blame.

After Ji Mo came to the Yinzuo Bureau, it went smoothly, and it was also because he satisfied these unspoken rules invisibly.

Among other things, the new product was enough to free him from the complicated routine, and the supervisor would not customize harsh work content for him, requiring him to make a hairpin or the like in a few days.

He will also be allowed to bring some small pieces to deal with routines, such as tourmaline rings, white jade bracelets, etc. These things that only look at the carver are familiar to Ji Mo, and he can finish one or two with his eyes closed. The speed is still fast, and it will not delay his study time too much.

Even so, it is still too labor-intensive to make a piece of silk jewelry. To say the least, it is a lot of troubles to make a piece of silk jewelry, and there are all necessary procedures. Every step must be careful, patient, energy and The time consumption is doubled.

The supervisor also knows this, and will not rush the finished product, but it is obviously impossible to not deliver the finished product for a long time. Those small pieces of time-saving jewelry have become the first choice. For a while, Ji Mo specialized in making bracelets and rings, not even hairpins. Touched.

ten years.

Ji Mo calmed down, and according to what the teacher said, he spent ten years working hard to conquer Leisi, and the result was very good. When he can skillfully make Leisi phoenix crowns, he will be considered a complete master.

The phoenix crowns are all made of gold wire, all types of crowns, there are pavilions, pavilions, luxuriant trees, auspicious grasses, cranes and flowers, ganoderma lucidum floating clouds, colorful phoenixes in the distance, nine tails stretched, the end of the tail naturally hangs to the back, falling into gold Down the rope, the golden rope that seems not much thicker than the hair is actually woven from gold thread, showing different glossiness due to different weaving techniques. The tassels are like curtains, and you can imagine the brilliance shining on the black hair .

The wings of the phoenix are spread out, and the two wings are like hanging clouds, and each has a hundred birds following them. If they are under the protection of the two wings, it shows that the queen is the mother of the world and the head of the harem.

The phoenix in front is holding a bead, it can be pearls, it can be golden beads, and there are also bead curtains to fight each other...

It took a full three months to complete such a phoenix crown, which is considered fast. Ji Mo is about manual work, but it is not the first time he has experienced the slowness of manual work. Of course, there are slow workers who produce meticulous work. The argument, but it also made the impatient people full of embarrassment.

There is really no rush.

"It's worth it."

When the supervisor saw the phoenix crown, his eyes were full of joy. He watched Ji Mo make it bit by bit. The complicated and difficult parts made him anxious, but there was nothing he could do. This thing must be obtained, but It's not that if you do one article well, you can see the other ones that are automatically generated.

Seeing that he was more relaxed than himself, Ji Mo smiled, "It's not hard to do business for you."

The supervisor is only a supervisor, and has no power to punish. Mostly, he is a monitor who maintains classroom discipline. He can make small reports and even be biased in task assignments. But in the end, if something goes wrong, he will not be able to avoid responsibility.

The supervisor of Ji Mo's room is not young, and he is also an internal supervisor. He has no conflict of interest with them, and he is kind to them, not harsh, and very easy to get along with.

"Isn't it? How much have I blocked for you!"

The supervisor said so, without mentioning how much money Ji Mo stuffed.

Except for some of Ji Mode's rewards, most of the others were scattered with others, but it was a good relationship, so that people would not embarrass him about these small things.

While talking, the supervisor put the phoenix coronet in the box so that he could keep it away. When it is handed in at the end of the month, there may be a reward. It is not easy to make a phoenix crown of this level of complexity. If it is done, it will please the superiors mean.

More or less, the higher-ups will look at it and give some rewards, which will not chill people's hearts.

It's also a good thing that the superior didn't know that Ji Mo chose such complicated ones to do it purely for practice, otherwise, I'm afraid the subordinate would blame him for not being careful.

The supervisor knows a little bit, but he won't say it. If you tell this kind of thing, you will be blamed for nothing, and there is no benefit at all. It's better to send it up happily and ask for a reward.
