Wei and Jin cooks

Ji Yuan wrapped the glass bottle in a piece of clothing and happily took it back to find Zhao Hanzhang. Fu Tinghan followed slowly.

Zhao Hanzhang rode back heroically, apparently having just gone out for military training.

Since there was no shortage of food in the manor, she has been keen on running and jumping around. Fu Tinghan has rarely seen such a lively and energetic Zhao Hanzhang since she became an adult.

Looking at her like this, it's like going back to high school.

It seems that vision has really sealed her.

Zhao Hanzhang jumped off the horse, first greeted Fu Tinghan happily behind Ji Yuan, and then looked at Ji Yuan's arms, "Mr. Ji, what are you holding?"

Ji Yuan mysteriously pulled Zhao Hanzhang through the door. After entering the study, he carefully put down the bottle in his arms, lifted up his clothes and showed her, "Sanniang, look at it."

Zhao Hanzhang was shocked, "What an ugly bottle."

Fu Tinghan: "I played it."

Zhao Hanzhang immediately changed his mind, "It's quite creative. Does this bottle have any meaning?"

Fu Tinghan asked: "What does Teacher Zhao think?"

Zhao Hanzhang tried his best to show the same attitude as when he was doing reading comprehension in high school, racking his brains and said: "Beauty bending over bottle? No, is it beauty bowing bottle?"

Fu Tinghan suppressed his laughter and said: "It was my first time to play, and I wasn't very skilled at it, so I broke it."

Zhao Hanzhang looked at him silently.

Fu Tinghan finally couldn't help laughing and explained: "I was going to smash it, but Mr. Ji wouldn't let me smash it."

"What are you smashing? This bottle is very good." Zhao Hanzhang stepped forward, picked up the bottle and looked it up and down, and said seriously: "This style of bottle is the only one in the world, and if you look carefully, isn't it very good? Artistic sense?"

Fu Tinghan glanced at it and looked away. He only felt that it hurt his eyes and did not feel that it was artistic.

Zhao Hanzhang, however, liked it more and more as he watched, "Don't tell me, it's really artistic and meaningful. This is the first bottle that Professor Fu has blown. And with such science and technology, it's really meaningful." ."

Ji Yuan, who was left standing aside, couldn't help coughing heavily, and finally broke the atmosphere between the two and integrated into it, "Sanniang, although the craftsmen are not yet skilled enough to make good colored glaze products, But I think in time these won’t be problems, let’s think about how to do this business.”

"What else can we do?" Zhao Hanzhang said nonchalantly: "The gentry in Shangcai County and the rich gentry in Runan County can all be our guests."

"But I think the cost of the water melted today is not high. The output will definitely increase in the future. We have such a big business..."

"I have already found a customer first, the seventh uncle, and the things are out of his hands," Zhao Hanzhang said: "Besides, this craftsman got it from the fifth uncle. Since we returned to Shangcai, we have always taken advantage of the fifth uncle. This time we will return the favor."

Ji Yuan understood instantly and met Zhao Hanzhang's eyes, "It's easy to enjoy the shade with a big tree at your back. With Zhao's Wubao here, no matter how jealous this business is, they will have to think twice."

Zhao Hanzhang nodded, "But this is a conspiracy. It can prevent the rich businessmen and gentry, but it cannot prevent the bandits and bandits. We have to be careful when setting up the workshop in the manor. We also need to practice the music. If there are really bandits and bandits attacking the workshop We can also deal with the idea.”

You can't rely on Zhao's Wubao for everything, that would be too restrictive.

Ji Yuan expressed his understanding, "Should I ask Zhao Qianli to select some young men from the manor to enter the drama?"

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Let Zhao Qianli be the master of the building."

Ji Yuan: ...He wanted to recruit more troops, but he didn't say to directly expand it to such a large size, with at least a thousand people in one building.

Now their number is less than 200, so Zhao Qianli is just the team leader, and now she wants to increase her salary by more than five times?

Ji Yuan reminded tactfully: "Sanniang, there are only more than 1,800 people in Zhuangzi."

This still includes the original tenants and long-term workers here, as well as the refugees recruited one after another during this period.

Zhao Hanzhang waved his hand generously and said: "If we don't have enough, we can recruit more. We have glass now and it's just summer harvest. Are we still afraid that we won't be able to feed them?"

"But..." Ji Yuan was still puzzled, "Why did you recruit so many people?"

It sounds very scary. There are so many people in Zhao's Wubao, but only Xiao Qian's Bubu can be raised.

A thousand, even the county garrison and government officials didn't have that many people.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Of course it is to build the manor, Mr. Ji, my land is now deserted a lot, and there is too much arable land per capita. It is all intensive farming and the yield is extremely low. I think we are short of people now."

"Extensive farming?" Ji Yuan read it back and forth twice before he understood the meaning. Although he understood it, he was still confused, "Sanniang, I have calculated that the current land is just suitable for the labor force to cultivate. It will be difficult to cultivate more." Use these fields to feed yourself.”

"Then there is not enough land," Zhao Hanzhang touched his chin and said, "This is not difficult, we can just buy it. There are abandoned lands everywhere outside. Find a time to submit a notice to the county magistrate, and he and I will buy the land."

Ji Yuan understood clearly that Zhao Hanzhang did not really recruit people for the so-called cultivation of wasteland, but purely to expand his power. If he did not recruit people, the land would not be enough to buy land. If he bought the land, he would recruit people, and after recruiting people, he would buy it. land……

This cycle continues...

Ji Yuan looked at Zhao Hanzhang deeply and then turned to look at Fu Tinghan, only to see Fu Tinghan leaning on the low table with his eyes closed to rest, and seemed to be about to fall asleep.

Ji Yuan:......

He couldn't help but stepped forward and pushed Fu Tinghan.

Fu Tinghan opened his eyes, "Mr. Ji?"

Ji Yuan smiled, "What do Mr. Fu Dalang think of Sanniang's idea?"

"Very good," he raised his head and said to Zhao Hanzhang: "I forgot to tell you that glass blowing is difficult, so I want to make some molds, which will use steel. I plan to try to make them soon."

"Is the temperature at the kiln entrance okay?"

"This is the biggest problem. In order not to affect the efficiency of glass production, I decided to open up another piece of land outside the workshop to build a kiln. I will try it bit by bit. If I can try it out, your gun head might as well be made of steel. ."

Zhao Hanzhang's eyes brightened and he nodded fiercely: "Okay!"

Fu Tinghan reached out to her, "So you have to prepare iron essence for me."

This is not an ordinary thing. It is not sold outside. The first thing Zhao Hanzhang thought of was his fifth uncle.

But after thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "We can't tell Zhao's Wubao about this matter. We have to find a way ourselves."

She looked at Ji Yuan, "Mr. Ji, the weapons and farm tools in Wubao..."

"Master Lang bought them all."

"Isn't there the origin of Tie Jing?"

Ji Yuan: "...Yes."

Zhao Hanzhang looked at him eagerly.

Ji Yuan said helplessly: "I'll try my best to contact them. Master Lang has just left and there should still be some affection, but if you want to maintain the relationship, Sanniang's name alone is not enough, unless Zhao's Wubao is willing Come forward.”

"No," Zhao Hanzhang shook his head and said, "We have to carve out a road ourselves."
