Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 708 New Rules of the Liu Family Workshop

Liu Mu didn't look at every surprised face, but walked into the hall.

"Guan Qi, I heard from the princess that you are happy. Congratulations first."

The woman who was at least 40 years old got up and prepared to salute, but Liu Mu first signaled to avoid the salute, and then said: "Three years, these five years, you have done a lot for the weaving workshop. If there is no you, there will be no gold thread." Zhuang Huarong, then let me ask you, why are you working so hard?"

"His Royal Highness is as generous to this old servant girl as a mountain."

Liu Mu shook his head. Although he knew very well that people in Tang Dynasty value love and righteousness, these alone are not enough.

So Liu Mu asked again: "If you have three points in this workshop, if you weave a golden silk makeup flower, I will lose one, and you will lose three feet. The three points are to thank you for the past five years." The hard work is also for you to keep your heart in Zhifang. Become a member of Zhifang. If you save money, you can buy two more points."

Seeing that Guanshi Qi and her husband were about to kneel, Liu Mu stretched out his hand to block it: "Mo Xie, you deserve it. Add another rule, ninety percent of the weaving workshops are female workers, so make a rule about pregnancy. At least one before and after For the [-]-day holiday, the salary will be slightly reduced, and the rest will be paid as usual."

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

"Willing to follow the princess, son-in-law..."

"For this second cup, everyone has their own affairs, and the details will be discussed. There must be a rule in everything, and then everything will follow the rule. It's not that I have a bias for someone. Even if this bowl of water is uneven, it can't be too biased."

Liu Mu's words are understood by the older ones.

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

"This is the third cup." Liu Mu's expression changed, becoming serious and fierce: "Choose someone for me to go to Wa Island, Huzhou, and Bashu, and next year at the latest in the silkworm season, I want to see the real queen. Even if it's only enough to weave one thread, I want it. Please drink up!"

This time it was not as neat as the previous two cups. Many people raised their cups with a sense of determination after hesitation.

True royal 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 classified silk into various grades, and in fact it was the same in Tang Dynasty.In the heyday of the Han Dynasty, there were super-top raw silks that paid tribute to the Han royal family.Its silkworm cocoons are at least twice as large as those of low-grade ones, and their color, luster, and softness are perfect and impeccable.

What is even more astonishing is that a silkworm cocoon is five thousand feet long with raw silk.

According to modern calculation units, it is more than [-] kilometers in length, and all indicators are perfect to the limit.

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

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

"True imperial silk is not double palace silk, it is the top of the top..."

Liu Mu was talking, when he saw a little eunuch galloping in, he had no choice but to stop.

The little eunuch saluted Dugu Lanruo first, and then said to Liu Mu: "Prince Liu, the saint is urgently recruited to the palace for discussion."

"Do you know what's going on?"

"I don't know, I only know that Huihe Khan was crying in the palace, but I don't know the specifics."

After listening to the little eunuch, Liu Mu complained: "This guy is really abominable, and those who celebrate the New Year will not make people peaceful." After finishing speaking, Liu Mu put a gold medal on the table: "Baoqin, this is the pass order from the armory of the Ministry of War. Card, you have time these two days to go and see if there is anything suitable for us to take away. You can continue with the rest."

After Liu Mu followed the little eunuch and left, the hall immediately exploded.

It is no longer a difficult task to reappear the real royal silk in one year, but an almost impossible task.Many of the super silk craftsmen present can be said to be the top silk craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty, and even they have never seen real imperial silk with their own eyes.

Dugu Lanruo casually savored the dishes on the table, and waited for a long time after everyone was noisy, before she said, "I think at least I have to produce better silk than now. The concubine's intention is not to let you one year Just recreate the real imperial silk, but the current top silk products of Datang can't choose the high-quality ones among the inferior ones."

"Yes, what the princess said is very true." Several top silk craftsmen immediately expressed their opinions.

"Today is the New Year's Day family feast. The workshop will be discussed after the fifth day. After a year of hard work, today is a relaxing day."

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

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

As soon as Liu Mu entered the room, he scolded: "Tumidu, today is the first day of my Tang Dynasty, a very festive day. You cry, if you can cry out a hundred thousand soldiers, you will cry to your death."

"Woo!" Li Shimin shouted coldly.

Tu Midu really cried out loud, the more he spoke, the more sad he became.

Li Shimin sighed slightly: "Speaking of it, I am also a little sad. In this world, people who have worked hard and done things can't be allowed to suffer, but people who can only talk nicely and gain practical benefits, indeed. unfair."

At this time Liu Mu said beside him: "The wings are not hard yet, is Yi Nan wanting to die?"

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

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

Tumidu suddenly stopped crying, and stared blankly at Liu Mu.

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

"Grand ceremony is definitely the most important thing, but I'm not good at this kind of thing, and Tang Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites is more reliable. People like me can only do one thing, which is to let the grassland see it, fair."

Li Shimin asked: "How to be fair?"

Liu Mu said calmly: "Shence Guard heavy cavalry armor, three thousand sets for Tumidu Khan. Another [-] sets of Yanling armor are also prepared for Tumidu Khan to distribute to the tribes in the grassland. , the most important thing is that all of this is a friendly price."

After listening to Liu Mu, Tu Midu immediately asked: "What is the friendship price?"

"It means that you feel that the price is right, and I will never counter-offer. This is called friendship price, and friendship is more important than price."

Tumidu's mind was spinning quickly. He had seen Datang's heavy cavalry armor before. It was invulnerable to swords and guns, and it was equipped with corresponding halberds, sabers, and steel crossbows.

Ordinary cavalry met this heavy cavalry, just like a herd of sheep met a pack of wolves.

Tu Midu thought about it, although he asked himself to call the price, this kind of heavy cavalry armor is a priceless thing, and he couldn't afford it if he called it too high, but it was obviously not appropriate to take advantage of it if he called it too low.
