Princess Fortune

Chapter 186 Strange

Ye Qingshi acted like this, the queen mother was a little uncertain about his thoughts.

But Ye Qingshi led Zhao Lan and Xu Tang all the way out of the city gate and up to Zhuangzi.

When Xu Tang went to Zhuangzi, he found that there were indeed many workshops—but these workshops were all planning to move.

After asking, I learned that these are workshops for making lamps and firecrackers. Because Zhuangzi changed hands, the original owner planned to move these workshops to other places.

Xu Tang was furious at once.

She wanted this Zhuangzi because of these workshops!For King Yan to do this, it is no less than drawing salary from the bottom of the pot!

Sure enough, it was really scheming!
Xu Tang thought about it for a second, and suddenly felt relieved: If it wasn't for such a plan, King Yan probably wouldn't have agreed to this matter so easily.

After all, I am still too tender.

However, it doesn't matter, isn't the person here now?Whether it can be cut or not depends entirely on this experience.

Ye Qingshi looked at the wonderful expression on Xu Tang's face, and thought that King Yan was annoyed at moving away all the profitable workshops. She felt sorry for the money, so she immediately laughed, and said cryptically, "It's okay, just open it again."

When Xu Tang glanced at Ye Qing, he thought to himself, how can you understand, young master?

In the end, Xu Tang found out the land deed on the spot, and explained to Zhuangtou with a smile, saying that he came to see the land on behalf of Master Miaojin.

Zhuangtou was naturally very respectful and enthusiastic, he took the initiative to lead the way, and introduced hurriedly.

Xu Tang asked about those workshops.

Zhuangtou was also a little sad: "Originally in our own Zhuangzi, it was easy to work in the workshop, but now we have to move away. I heard that apart from the original few great craftsmen, we don't want any people in our Zhuangzi. "

Xu Tang immediately apologized, his actions seemed to have affected many people.

But Xu Tang remembered that this Zhuangzi has always been a lamp maker, so he immediately raised his eyebrows: "Then the people in our Zhuangzi can't make lamps and firecrackers by themselves?"

Lanterns and firecrackers are must-buy things during the holidays.

Opening such a workshop can also make a lot of money.

However, the most dangerous one is the firecracker workshop, which is a real test of skill.The most important thing is that this danger is not easy to deal with. It needs the permission of the court before it can be produced and sold.

Zhuangtou was frowning because of this: "Lanterns are fine. This can also be made, but those few big craftsmen are the best. They make lanterns every year during the Lantern Festival in the palace. Without this gimmick, in the future I'm afraid it will be difficult to attract business. The most important thing is the firecracker workshop, without the permission of the imperial court, we dare not do it!"

Xu Tang pursed his lips and smiled: "Master Miaojin is very capable, so I'll get you one later. I'll see some of us who are doing well here, and see if I can hold a workshop myself."

Also, by the way, see if the person she wants is still there.

When Zhuangtou looked at Ye Qing's clothes, he really didn't look like an ordinary person, and Xu Tang had a land deed in his hand, so he didn't look like he was playing tricks.So he had some expectations in his heart——

Zhuangtou hurried to make arrangements.

Ye Qingshi couldn't see through Xu Tang's thoughts, so he stared at her a few more times.

Xu Tang took the initiative to explain: "Because of me, they have no money to earn. If they can reopen, their livelihood will be better. Moreover, the ancestral craftsmanship cannot be lost."

If lost, where to find talent?
Zhao Lan stared at Xu Tang for a while: "I can't see that you still have the heart of a bodhisattva."

Xu Tang replied back: "I've seen a lot of these things since I was a child, and I can't compare to someone like you, who doesn't know the suffering of the people, and human life is at stake."

Zhao Lan narrowed his eyes slightly and didn't bother with her.

It didn't take long, and the ancestral hall was full of people.

There are old and young under there, all of them are men, and all of them are skilled in crafts.

Xu Tang roughly counted them, and there were about twenty of them.

"These are all well-crafted." Zhuangtou rubbed his hands, a little worried: "But other people are also needed, chopping bamboo, cutting paper, drawing, all need people."

Xu Tang pursed his lips and smiled: "A workshop needs some people."

"The youngest ones, come here, let me ask a few words."

When Xu Tang gave such an order, everyone was puzzled and naturally looked at her suspiciously.

Those young people also stepped forward.

"Actually, I have another purpose for coming here. I heard that the revolving lantern is very delicate, and there is also that kind of switch lamp. Although I have never seen it, I have heard of it. I just want to ask, by the way, if you can help me make a light crossbow. To shoot projectiles? There is no male in my family, only a younger brother, and now we live in a remote place, so making something like this can also protect us several women. It is light and effortless."

A real military crossbow is too expensive.It is not spread to the outside world, so this is definitely not available.

Therefore, a small mechanism crossbow made of bamboo or wood is most suitable for ejecting projectiles.

"It's not just a projectile, but it's also good to throw a firecracker." Xu Tang laughed: "It hurts not to mention how painful it is when it explodes on your body. It will still scare people and warn you."

Zhuangtou and the others were all dumbfounded by Xu Tang's unconstrained style.

In fact, Xu Tang didn't need to be so troublesome at first, but she just came over today to see that three of these young people had purple aura on their heads, and she couldn't determine who they were, so she simply tried to test it out.

Among the older generation, some of them pondered and thought faster than the younger ones: "It's not difficult, but we still have to figure it out. Girl, give us some time, and we can figure it out."

Xu Tang responded with a smile, and only said that there was news, so he asked Zhuangtou to deliver the letter to the Xishi house, and she would come to see it again.

Xu Tang then made a final decision on building a lantern workshop and a firecracker workshop.

She also has her own ideas for the lantern workshop: "We don't do that kind of palace. After the workshop is completed, you can make me a pair of big lanterns for the door. Don't make them in ordinary styles, but make them look like lanterns." .I want to use it as a shop sign!"

"The name of the store is Jin Kee."

It is colorful and splendid.

It is not only hope that the rouge made in the future will be colorful and splendid, but also hope that the business of the shop will be prosperous in the future.

Looking forward to the future, Xu Tang smiled wide-eyed.

Ye Qingshi watched from the side, thoughtful.

Zhao Lan even sneered in his heart: When I followed Ye Qing, why was there no glory and wealth?Still have to toss these.Isn't this a joke?
Xu Tang was serious: "If you do well, your business will be fine by then."

Ye Qingshi chuckled, "Maybe in the future, we can also present lanterns in the palace."

Having said this, Zhuangtou also laughed: "Then I would like to thank you for your kind words. If there is such a day, we will all kowtow to the nobles!"

Whether a Zhuangzi is prosperous or not depends not only on farming, but also on the well-being of every household.

The land is not his own, but the money he earns from working in a workshop is all his own.

Suddenly, Zhao Lan didn't know what to think of, and said thoughtfully, "Who is Wu Zhen?"
