Section 0268 Jinghe Bazaar
After sending Li Yuan to a resting place, Liu Mu let out a long sigh of relief. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The matter of the family members of the forbidden army is definitely taboo, but it can't be solved at the moment, it's just that the Tang Emperor doesn't mind.
Under the imperial power, no red line can be stepped on.
After sighing softly, Liu Mu was about to go to the arena to take a look, but found Cui Yiye standing under a tree not far away.
Liu Mu walked a few steps quickly, pointed at Cui Yiye and scolded with a smile: "The wages of your white-collar villagers are idle here." There's just a job for you to go to. ”
"This villager is also a knight?" Cui Yiye also smiled.
Liu Mu laughed a few more times with him: "Without further ado, the saint will allow those guests to meet informally in a while, the saint must not have prepared anything to be rewarded, but fortunately I am prepared." Curry has a job. ”
"It's not child's play." A man walked out from behind the tree, startling Willow.
Cui Yiye hurriedly introduced: "This is my uncle, the current Zuo Cheng of the household." ”
"Cui Gong is polite." Willow Wood Salute.
"The foreign minister came to Tang to meet my Tang Emperor, this is not a child's play. Even if it is not an official audience in the Taiji Palace, this is also a national ceremony. According to the ceremony, the Ministry of Rites will be notified first, and then the Honglu Temple will make arrangements, and everything must be recorded in the case during the period. Even if you are prepared, the reward should first be inspected and filed by the corresponding officials of the Ministry of Rites, which is related to the national system. ”
Cui Junsu said a long list of rules very seriously.
Liu Mu gave another salute: "Thank you for the elder guidance." ”
Cui Junsu said to Cui Yiye: "Do you know what to do." ”
"First took the corresponding objects, and then the saint came to Jingyang, there must be an official of the Ministry of Rites to accompany him, according to the Ministry of Rites arranged a person to inform the guests of Xiaobang, and then set the order of the audience. Then ask the saint if there are any special rewards and arrangements for recording and preparation. If the preparations are made quickly, the saint can allow the guests of the small state to be seen before the dinner. ”
Cui Junsu nodded, and Cui Yiye left.
Cui Junsu said to Liu Mu at this time: "You don't mind taking me to see this Jingyang market." ”
"Please." Yanagi made a gesture of please.
The two walked side by side towards the market, and there were hundreds of people lined up outside a room at the entrance to the market at Jingyang Wharf.
Liu Mu didn't know what he was doing here, but Cui Junsu seemed to have sent someone to see it.
Cui Junsu took out a handful of steel: "This is your family's iron money, but it is stainless when it meets water, I asked the money smiths at home, and they told me that in the pre-Qin period, there was a way to make the copper sword not rust, and by the time of the Han Dynasty, the craftsmanship of the copper mirror was extremely high." And your iron money, there should be a recipe. ”
Being able to say the word formula proves that the Cui family also has a first-class craftsman.
It cannot be said that the iron money of willow wood will never rust, but it will not rust so easily. Zinc, tin, lead, etc. are added to this, especially zinc will make iron less prone to rust.
It's not that Yanagi hasn't thought about adding chromium, but the cost is so high that it's perverted.
Someone will add, they will add three more processes to a good knife when it is about to be formed, which is called the iron pouring method, the burial burning method, and the water casting method.
This iron pouring method is a carburizing technology of the Tang Dynasty, and burial is to increase other elements on the blade of some mineral soil. Water casting is the lowering of a red-hot knife in some kind of liquid.
Legend has it that the Goujian sword is made of chrome plating by casting it with water.
At this cost, after trying a knife, Yanagiki's face turned white when he saw the cost, and he had to make coins in this way, and he would lose to death.
Only then did Liu Mu know that the long queue was the money bank.
Here, the old copper coins were graded and then replaced with new-style copper coins, as well as a large amount of steel.
For ordinary people, steel is more practical to them than copper coins.
The purchasing power of a penny in the Tang Dynasty is equivalent to at least five yuan in later modern times, and using five yuan as the smallest coin is indeed not conducive to the purchase of small items.
Most of the shops in this market are actually crowded.
In another room, Cui Junsu said to Liu Mu: "I came here twice before, and this hoe turned out to be made of ice-patterned iron, which is said to have been created by an old craftsman in the Northern Dynasty, and it was actually given to you." ”
"I am a wicked person, and I have cut off the business of more than 200 blacksmith households in Chang'an." Liu Mu laughed happily.
Ice iron is the name of the Tang Dynasty, so in modern times it is called a hard and brittle white mouth tissue.
The furniture of willow wood is already a double-layer material, divided into wrought iron and ice iron, in fact, it is a kind of rubbing process, and the cost is not high after becoming an assembly line process.
Moreover, this material belongs to the waste and defective products of high-quality iron and steel.
If it is put in the future for metal analysis, this iron material contains too much silicon, acid, etc. The use of agricultural tools is a super-first-class good thing, one side of which has been treated, and the other side is wrought iron. Therefore, the wear is slow on one side and fast on the other, and the sharp edge can always be guaranteed, which is the wisdom of the ancients, and the grinding tools are not sharp.
Continuing to move forward, Cui Junsu stopped in front of a clearing lot.
There are several women knitting sweaters on the stage, and there are huge cloth paintings next to them, depicting sweater knitting needles and final renderings. It's just some simple lines, but the women of the Tang Dynasty can see Mingtang from these lines.
At this point, Liu Mu admits that he can't do it.
"Sweater, even my wife sent someone to purchase fifteen catties of first-class wool thread, and ordered a thousand catties of second- and third-class wool yarn for the house. The new female red skills in Chang'an City are the skills that must be learned by both noble and lowly women. Cui Junsu looked at Liu Mu with a smile on his face.
"What you're saying is that this is exactly what I wanted. A pound of third-class wool only costs a few pennies, and you can buy it back and weave it into clothes, and there are three catties enough to survive the winter. Coupled with coal stoves and other things, the winter of the people of Chang'an is bound to be warmer than in other places. Yanagi also said on the side.
Cui Junsu didn't say anything more, but gestured to Liu Mu.
Liu Mu looked in the direction, and there was an old acquaintance there.
Zheng Yuanxuan.
Cui Junsu was observing Liu Mu to see what Liu Mu would do at this time.
At this time, Liu Mu turned around and prepared to leave from the other side. But he didn't expect Cui Junsu to shout: "Zheng Gong." ”
Liu Mu looked at Cui Junsu in surprise, but Cui Junsu responded to Liu Mu with a smile.
Helpless, Liu Mu had no choice but to step forward with Cui Junsu.
"Elder Zheng!" Yanagi and the others saluted each other.
After the ceremony, Zheng Yuanxuan said: "It's only been half a day, and the old man is here to observe. The caravans of Liu, Bai, Du, and Wei to Suzhou have ordered nearly 10,000 stones of second-class wool. The wages of the ship-loading workers at the Jinghe wharf have risen by 30%, and the latest batch of goods will have to wait for two days to be loaded. ”
"Not much." Liu Mu replied very blandly.
Zheng Yuanxuan said again: "The old man also found that none of the boats went south, all of them went upstream. ”
