Instead of looking at every surprised face, Ichiyagagi walked into the hall.

"Steward Qi, I'm happy to hear the princess say you. Congratulations in advance. ”

The woman, who was at least forty years old, got up to give the salute, but Liu Mu took the first step to excuse herself, and then said, "Three years, you have done a lot for the weaving workshop in these five years, and if you were not for you, you would not have gold silk and wool, then I ask you, why is it so hard?" ”

"Her Royal Highness the princess is as kind to the old maid as a mountain."

Liu Mu shook his head, although he knew very well that the Tang people valued love and righteousness, but these alone were not enough.

So Liu Mu asked again: "If it is this workshop, you have three points." If you break a gold silk makeup, then if I lose one, you will lose three feet. These three points are to thank you for your hard work in the past five years, and also to keep your heart in the weaving workshop. Become a part of the weaving mill. If you have money, you can buy another two cents. ”

Seeing that Steward Qi and her husband were about to kneel, Liu Mu stretched out his hand to block: "Mo Xie, this is what you deserve." Add another rule, ninety percent of the weavers are female workers, and there is a rule for pregnancy. At least 100 days of leave before and after, the wages will be slightly reduced, and the rest will be paid. ”

After finishing speaking, Liu Mu picked up a cup on the table and held it high: "This first cup, thank you for your hard work last year." ”

"Will follow the princess and the concubine ......"

"This second cup, everyone has the affairs of the molecule, and the details will be discussed, and everything must be according to the rules after there is a rule. It's not that I have the heart to favor anyone, even if this bowl of water is uneven, it can't deviate too much. ”

Yanagi understands what the older ones say.

There is no absolute fairness in the world, and it is excellent to be able to maintain relative fairness.

"This third cup." Liu Mu's expression changed, and he became serious and fierce: "You pick someone for me to go to Wadao, Huzhou, and Bashu, and I want to see the true emperor silk in the spring silkworm season next year at the latest." Even if it's only enough to weave one horse, I want it. Drink to your heart's content! ”

This time it was not as neat as the first two glasses, and many people raised their glasses after hesitation and with a resolute decision.

True Emperor Silk, this is a legend that exists in reality.

Several authentic pieces have been preserved in the former Sui Imperial Palace.

Not silk products, but raw silk.

Later generations divided silk into various grades, and in fact the Tang Dynasty was the same. In the prosperous era of the Han Dynasty, there was a super top raw silk that paid tribute to the Han royal family. Its cocoons are at least twice as large as those of the lower ones, and their color, luster and softness are impeccable.

What's even more amazing is that a silkworm cocoon is 5,000 feet long with raw silk.

According to the modern unit of calculation, it is more than 1.5 kilometers in length, and the indicators are perfect to the limit.

It has the title of the emperor of silk, so this kind of silkworm cocoon is called the real emperor silk in the Han Palace.

Crystal clear and translucent. The silk is not snow-white, but pearl-white. It's a pity that no one in Datang has ever seen such a top-notch silkworm cocoon anymore.

"True Emperor Silk is not a double palace silk, it is the top ...... among the tops"

Liu Mu was talking, only to see a little eunuch rushing in, and had no choice but to stop.

The little eunuch first gave Dugu Lanruo a salute, and then said to Liu Mu: "Liu Concubine, the sage is in a hurry to enter the palace to discuss matters. ”

"Do you know what's going on?"

"The slave doesn't know, I only know that the Hui Khan is crying in the palace, and the specific slave doesn't know."

After listening to the little eunuch, Liu Mu complained: "This guy is really hateful, and the New Year is not peaceful." After that, Liu Mu put a gold medal on the table: "Huqin, this is the pass token of the armory of the Ministry of War, you have time to take a look in the past two days, what is suitable for us to take away." Go ahead with the rest. ”

After Liu Mu followed the little eunuch away, the hall was fried.

It takes a year to make the True Emperor Silk reappear, which is no longer difficult, but an almost impossible task. Many of the super-grade silksmiths here can be said to be the top silksmiths in the Tang Dynasty, and even they have never seen the real emperor silk with their own eyes.

Dugu Lanruo casually tasted the dishes on the table, and waited for a long time after everyone was noisy before she spoke: "This palace thinks that at least we have to come up with better silk than now." The meaning of the horse is not really to let you reproduce the real emperor silk in a year, but the top silk products in Datang at the moment must not be selected among the defective products. ”

"Yes, the princess said very much." Several top silksmiths immediately took a stand.

"Today is the New Year's banquet on the first day of the new year, and the things in the workshop will be discussed after the fifth day of the new year, after a hard year, today is a relaxed day."

Baoqin immediately instructed people to bring some samples of goods from Liaodong and Lingnan that could not be bought, or even seen, in Chang'an City, and prepared to be rewarded during the banquet.

The front hall of Taiji Palace, Li Shimin's external work study.

As soon as Liu Mu entered the house, he scolded: "Tumidu, today is the first day of my Tang New Year, an extremely festive day." You cry, you can cry out 100,000 male soldiers, and you will cry to death. ”

"Wood!" Li Shimin snorted coldly.

Tu Midu is really crying, and the more he talks, the more sad he becomes.

Li Shimin sighed slightly: "Speaking of which, I am also a little sad. In this world, we must not let those who have contributed and done things suffer, but let those who can only speak good and obedient words and drill camps take advantage of the actual benefits, which is indeed unfair. ”

Liu Mu said on the side at this time: "These wings are not hard yet, Yi Nan wants to die?" ”

"Ah, shut up!" Li Shimin hesitated for a moment, but stopped Liu Mu from continuing.

In any case, the Yinan Khan is also a Khan who has just accepted the canonization of the Tang Dynasty.

Tumidu suddenly stopped crying and looked at Liu Mu blankly.

Li Shimin also looked at Liu Mu: "What do you think?" ”

"The great ceremony is definitely the most important, but I'm not good at this kind of thing, or Tang Shangshu of the Ministry of Etiquette is more reliable. People like me will only do one thing, which is to let the grassland see it, fairly. ”

Li Shimin asked: "How to be fair?" ”

Liu Mu said very calmly: "Shen Cewei heavy cavalry armor, give three thousand sets of Tumidu Khan. Prepare another 20,000 sets of Yanling armor, and also give it to Tumidu Khan for distribution to the various tribes of the grassland, and the most important thing is that all of this is a friendship price. ”

After listening to Liu Mu's speech, Tu Midu immediately asked, "What is a friendship price?" ”

"It's just that what price you feel is right, I definitely don't bargain. This is called friendship price, and friendship is more important than price. ”

Tumidu's head turned quickly, he had seen the heavy cavalry armor of the Tang Dynasty, which was invulnerable, and was equipped with the corresponding halberd, saber, and steel crossbow.

An ordinary cavalry meets this heavy cavalry like a flock of sheep meets a pack of wolves.

Tu Midu thought about it, although he let himself shout the price, this kind of heavy cavalry armor is a priceless thing, and he can't afford to shout too high, but shouting too low is obviously taking advantage of it, and it is not appropriate.
