The eldest daughter of the emperor, she began to build a city wildly

Chapter 145 The Inner Thief (Part [-])
"Based on this situation, it is not the formula that was stolen. If it was the formula, they would have started to make and sell it with great fanfare. I am afraid that someone stole the finished pigments we made. The use of pigments is not wasted, only a small amount is needed. One bottle can make several pieces of porcelain." Ya Su analyzed.

"That's the inner thief, I'm afraid there may be inner robbers in our village." Su Tang pondered.

There are guards guarding the outside, so it must not be those spies, but the internal thieves who stole the paint.

"How are you doing there?" Su Tang asked Xiang Yasu again.

"The shop in Linqi City is under renovation, and it will open soon." Ya Su replied.

Since the store is going to be expanded, the first stop must be in Linqi City, to deal with those ceramic families.

"You continue to be busy with the business of the store, and leave this matter to me to investigate." Su Tang explained worriedly, "Pay attention to safety, and bring enough people when you go out, so that dangerous things like last time don't happen again."

"I know the village master, I will be careful." Yasu looked at Su Tang with a warm heart, "But I am afraid that after they get the paint, they will find out what raw materials are used. If they also make it, it will be troublesome .”

"No, they don't have that brain. You haven't researched it for so many years before. How could they know what raw materials are used? Porcelain for sale."

Su Tang continued, "Maybe some money-grubbing employee stole the porcelain and sold it, or stole the paint to make it outside, not necessarily those from the ceramic family."

Although even if the family of ceramics knows how to make pigments, it is useless, the colors they make will never be as rich and bright as Fufengzhai, and they may not be able to threaten the sales of porcelain in Fufengzhai.

But that will inevitably bring some troubles, I hope things don't develop to that point.

Sitting on the boat back to Fufengzhai, Su Tang took the time to check the surveillance, and found that even if she had the perspective of God, it would be difficult to find the insider for a while.

Not to mention that there are already two to 3000 people in the village, but there are hundreds of employees who have access to colored glaze pigments when making porcelain. Without any clues, it is very time-consuming to track them one by one. matter.

If they exchanged hands again, for example, an employee took the paint out of the village, and then handed it to another person in the residential area, and the other person used the excuse of going to the city to buy things to take it out of the stockade.

If this goes on, it will be even more difficult to rely on monitoring. After all, everyone contacts many people every day, and it is impossible to screen one by one.

The best way at present is to ask Wu Chong to send people to follow the people who left the village to see if they can catch any clues.

Especially after the establishment of Qingshi Road, the common people do not take cargo ships to go to the city to buy things. They can go directly from Qingshi Road to the wharf of Yanyang City, and then cross the river into the city by boat.

This makes it very difficult to track down, because now almost every day, people leave the stockade to buy and sell things in the city.

"Why don't we seal off the stockade and search it? They will also be searched after work to see if they still dare to steal things." Wu Chong was very angry when he heard about it.

"It's better not to startle the enemy. If they are detected, it will be more difficult for us to catch him if they stop. Now we should be more cautious, follow up secretly, and find him out." Su Tang said.

"Yes." Wu Chong responded and went.

"Also pay more attention to the production plants outside Yanyang City." Su Tang said again.

However, the possibility there is not very high, because after the factory opened, not only will each worker be issued an ID card, but they will be asked questions one by one before going to work, and they will also be searched after get off work to see if they are wearing something they shouldn’t have. , this area is very strictly controlled.

Only Zhaizi didn't have this rule in the beginning, and there was no such thing as a body search after get off work.

Now the people in Fufeng Village are all brought back from various villages, good and bad are mixed, there are all kinds of people, it is not good for someone to take advantage of this to lurk in.

Now we can only let Wu Chong lead people to investigate secretly, and wait for the news.

After Su Tang explained this, she turned directly to the iron furnace to find a stone hammer. She wanted to build a device, similar to an egg beater, but this one was driven by gears. A hand beater, which will be used later when making cheese and butter.

After Shi Tiechui heard Su Tang's idea, he said that it could be done, and it was not difficult.

After coming out of the gunpowder workshop, it was the time for the common people to go to work. People working in the seasoning workshop, porcelain workshop, and paper workshop walked to the bridge in groups, finishing their day's work and preparing to go home.

All of them had smiles on their faces, talking and laughing in twos and threes. Now they have food and drink, and after deducting the living expenses from the wages they earn, they can save money left over, which is better than before. Where to go, how could they be unhappy.

Those who passed by Su Tang did not forget to say hello one by one, and Su Tang smiled back.

"Master, sometimes when I go shopping for vegetables, I hear people say that life is better now, and they are going to buy cattle to grow more land. They also said that if they used to save enough money to buy a cow in their entire life, this It's all thanks to the master." Yingyue told Su Tang the gossip she had heard on a daily basis.

"Master, I also heard from them that they have never eaten white rice and noodles for half their lives, and they have never even eaten white rice for half their lives. I dare not even think about it. I asked them what they ate, and they said they could Eating brown rice is considered a blessing, I think we used to be in the palace."

Yingyue's words came to this point, she suddenly felt wrong and quickly changed her words, "When we didn't come here, those women were afraid that they would gain weight and look ugly, so they threw away a big bowl of white rice, and even the meat would not be eaten after two bites. Now What a waste to think about."

Su Tang smiled lightly. Although Yingyue is a court lady, she never lacks food and clothing. How could she know that people who are poor enough to eat chaff and vegetables can survive? In the center of power and wealth, even the lowest Ladies, don't worry about being hungry.

"I still heard them discussing what the imperial palace looks like? Is it a pile of gold and silver, and the rice, noodles, oil and salt that the empresses in the harem can't finish eating? The steps are all made of white marble, and if you chisel a piece and sell it, it will be enough for them to eat for a lifetime." Yingyue shook her head as she said, because when she was in the palace, she also thought that everyone in the world had enough to eat.

Although the food is not better than them, at least turnips and greens can fill their stomachs. Now I know that she is thinking too much. Let alone radishes, many people can dig wild vegetables and eat them. It is not bad, even they have never eaten before Coarse grains are good things in the eyes of the common people. As for meat and oil, they can't eat a few meals a year.
