Section 0269 Temptation to Resist
I heard Zheng Yuanxuan ask if there was no ship going south. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"There are two workshops in Qingzhou and Laizhou on the second-class line, which were completed two months ago and started production 40 days ago. They had enough production to be transported down the Grand Canal to Luoyang. Yanagi gave an explanation.
The most confidential process of wool is carding, combing, worsted, worsted, and third.
Other than these three, Yanagi didn't care about his workshop.
Zheng Yuanxuan took out a handful of willow copper coins: "The money you make is better than that of my Zheng family, I heard that you like to recruit extraordinary craftsmen, and the salary is extremely high." My Zheng family is willing to give you forty-two craftsmen, two of whom are ghost workers. ”
Hearing the ghost worker, Liu Mu's heart suddenly clenched.
Up to now, Liu Mu has found many craftsmen from the former Sui court, many of whom have mythical techniques in Liu Mu's eyes, and the most powerful one is the swordsmith who created the sky-high long knife, he knows sixteen crafts alone, and four of them are recognized as lost, such as chromium penetration.
The proudest thing about this swordsmith is that he is the strongest craftsman, and he is only one step away from the ghost craftsman.
Ghost work is the pinnacle of craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty, taking the word ghost axe.
The craftsmen at the peak of the Tang Dynasty are outstanding in artificial ingenuity and superb skills. The word "ingenuity" is called ingenuity. At a higher level, it is a technology that seems to be made by ghosts and gods, and is not within the reach of human beings. Ghost worker.
Zheng Yuanxuan clearly saw Liu Mu's heartbeat, and added: "It's not an ordinary ghost worker, or a jeweler or a coppersmith, one is a carpenter, specializing in shipbuilding, and the other is a stonemason, who can only build bridges." There is a bridge on the Ji River in Hebei, which is the first class reward of the former Sui Ministry of Industry, the river is 12 zhang wide, and there is no pillar in the river. ”
"Li Chun!" Liu Mu turned his head violently.
Zheng Yuanxuan was stunned, he never expected that Liu Mu would even know the name of the stonemason.
Cui Junsu said: "Gong Zheng is not kind, this person was originally a former Sui official, and such a stonemason is useless to your Zheng family." ”
"No, he took out his family property and donated it to resist the Tang Dynasty and received the seal of the former Sui. The whole family was set as a slave, and was assigned to repair the embankment of the Yellow River waterway, and then he was seriously ill and almost died, but he was rescued by my Zheng family, and stayed in my Zheng family in gratitude, not forced to buy slaves. Zheng Yuanxuan pointed to what Cui Junsu was saying very seriously.
"Okay, I agreed. However, in the matter of Hedong, I asked someone to help me make up my mind. Please don't be surprised. ”
"It doesn't matter. But who is it? ”
"Yongzhou governs the middle, Gao Gong."
"Very good." Zheng Yuanxuan breathed a sigh of relief, he said in his heart that it was better to let a respected nobleman talk about cooperation than to talk to Liu Mu, and Gao Jian was a very polite person.
Liu Mu looked up in the direction of the Jing River, but there was a smile on his face.
Cui Junsu said to Zheng Yuanxuan: "Zheng Gong, you put forward a request that he can't refuse, you need a bridge on the Jing River, and it still needs a very strong long bridge that can walk big cars." ”
He ...... Jay. Zheng Yuanxuan said, and walked to the other side of the market with his hands behind his back.
Li Chun!
Liu Mu believes that with his own support, this ghost worker may even be able to build the Yangtze River Bridge for himself, and this is definitely the first cow in the Sui and Tang Dynasty bridge-building circles.
Build a bridge, and it can still be used in modern times 1,400 years later.
After Zheng Yuanxuan walked away, Cui Junsu said to Liu Mu: "If you avoid it once, you will avoid it a second time." That's why I stopped him and asked you to stand here, the way of officialdom is, not to move. The way to get along with the nobles is that they would rather lose than retreat, and as long as there is still a trace of strength, they must not retreat. ”
"Thank you, Cui Gong."
"You don't have to thank me, I'm not helping you, I just don't want my Cui family to bet on the wrong treasure." Cui Junsu obviously helped Liu Mu, but he didn't admit this help.
Liu Mu understood in his heart, but he didn't say anything, just said: "Actually, there is another cooperation, if you are interested, Cui Gong, we can try it." ”
"I want to hear about it."
Liu Mu took Cui Junsu around the Jingyang market, and smiled helplessly: "I'm sorry, I forgot that store was there." ”
Cui Junsu just smiled.
After Liu Mu found a steward in the market and asked, he took Cui Junsu to find the shop.
Unlike the others, there are almost no people here.
Although the Jinghe Wharf Market does not have the rules of not allowing officials and nobles to enter the East and West Markets, the ladies of the real noble families are not used to wandering around the market.
Several of them chartered a small teahouse, asked for some snacks, chatted and played cards.
The work of visiting the market is the task of their maidservants, and if there is something new to buy and send over, if they are really interested, it is also the task of the maidservants and their servants to exclude and order.
Therefore, ordinary people will not come to this shop, where a piece of cloth costs a lot of money.
Many of the nobles' maids may not have known what it was.
Cui Junsu, worthy of being a person from a famous family, only looked at a piece of cloth and said: "This is a white stacked cloth, a white stacked cloth from the Western Regions, but a high-grade one." ”
"Didn't Yiye tell you that I planted nearly 10,000 acres of white velvet flowers?"
"You mean White Velvet?" Cui Junsu picked up the cloth again and put it in his hand, feeling it with new eyes.
After a long while, Cui Junsu shook his head: "No, it's not. The white velvet flower is woven into cloth, the first difficulty is to take the seeds, and the second difficulty is to spin the thread. The woven cloth feels a little rough, and the cloth is harder than this. ”
Liu Mu also sat down: "Have you ever heard that there was a new weaving method in the late Han Dynasty, called three weaving cloths. ”
"No, it was formed in the Southern Dynasty, a process used to weave thick silk brocade, six rows of horizontal and vertical threads, staggered weaving. I still have that machine at home, and I can't control the loom if it's not an excellent weaver. This one is still not, and although it is heavy, it feels smooth to the touch. "Cui Junsu has extraordinary knowledge, he has seen several kinds of white cloth.
Yanagi motioned to the shopkeeper to bring a variety of cloth samples.
Cui Junsu still didn't open his eyes, relying on his touch to touch.
When he touched the tenth piece, Cui Junsu opened his eyes: "I believe it, this is made of white velvet flowers." Although none of them have the feel of white stacked cloth and flannel as I know it, the ability to weave more than ten different fabrics is a testament to the craftsmanship. ”
"Plant white velvet flowers, tonight I will ask Princess Changping to send some gifts to Mrs. Zun, I believe Mrs. Zun will like it." And from the inside to the outside a set of clothes is just the usual money, this fabric is expensive because a piece of cloth is according to 30 zhang into a horse, but there are not many people who know the goods. ”
Cui Junsu was still puzzled: "Even if what you say is reasonable, but such fabric buyers are only rare." ”
