Chapter 254

Regarding Li Ke's request to go and see with him, Wang Ke did not object, nor did he say anything in favor. Instead, he explained to Li Ke that the production has not officially started yet, and at most it is the preparation work before production. Look, if Li Ke sees it and gets bored, there's nothing he can do about it.

But Li Ke doesn't think like Wang Ke. For him, everything is novel now. Even if there is no production, he can satisfy himself by looking at the production equipment. As long as Wang Ke doesn't categorically refuse him to go, I also want to follow along to see it.

The two came to Wang Ke's house together. As soon as they entered the door, they saw a few craftsmen from the Western Regions who had finished all the preparations and were sitting there waiting for Wang Ke to come. Go to Wang Ke's side and wait for Wang Ke to arrange tasks for them.

Wang Ke understood what they meant, but he didn't know what to say. He didn't know anything about this stuff. If he wanted to give orders to these people, he really didn't know what to say.

Wang Ke smiled wryly, and asked a craftsman whose name was Lapud that he vaguely remembered: "When did you clean it up? Why don't you move right away after you clean it up?"

Wang Ke's meaning is actually very obvious, that is, let them decide what to do, just start doing it themselves, there is no need to wait for me to come back, I don't know what to do with this matter, waiting for me to come back is useless, it is better for them Move right away.

Lapud looked at Li Ke cautiously, and then said to Wang Ke: "My lord, it's like this. I don't even know what my lord is going to do. I heard from Master Bohan that my lord is not going to do what we usually do. Things, the adults left in a hurry again today, and the little one didn’t have time to ask about it, so he didn’t dare to move immediately, and he could only start to do it after the adults came back and asked clearly.”

As soon as Wang Ke heard this, he realized that he was talking nonsense because of his ignorance, but he was also very happy that Lapud was so considerate. With such a clear-headed and considerate craftsman doing things, he Even if he is too busy to come and watch, there should be no problems in the production process, because during the production process, Lapud can pay attention to these problems at any time, and nothing out of the ordinary will happen, and he will Save a lot of heart, just sit back and enjoy the achievements.

Wang Ke quickly told a few craftsmen about his request. It can be seen that among these few people, Lapute is their leader. If there is anything they don't understand, he will ask. It became a conversation between Wang Ke and Lapud. The other craftsmen just listened to it and made some notes when they thought it was important, but Lapud did the whole process. After making detailed records, all the data that Wang Ke said must be checked repeatedly with Wang Ke. After confirming that it is correct, the exchange of opinions on the next topic will begin.

At this time, Li Ke was the most idle person. At first, he stood aside and listened enthusiastically, but after a while, Li Ke became interested suddenly, and could only sit in the room with his hands behind his back. Turning around and looking around, each piece of equipment is very novel to me.

After Wang Ke and Lapud finished exchanging opinions, they said to Lapud relaxedly: "Here, you just need to take responsibility. If you need anything, just go to the housekeeper and ask for it. What do you think will work?" Just do what you want. I will not interfere with your production process. I only look at the results. As long as the results meet my expectations, I will not care about anything else. Now I only have one request, that is, I hope you can complete the production in the shortest possible time. Here, make what I need!"

Wang Ke knew that he didn't understand this stuff, and if he wanted to get involved, it would be completely unnecessary. When it was time to delegate power, he must delegate power, and it must not happen that laymen lead experts, otherwise the result he wanted Not only will it not happen, but it may also make things develop in the opposite direction to what I expected. If that really happens, it will be really thankless.

Lapud probably did not expect that Wang Ke would give this place to himself so reassuringly, his face was flushed with excitement, and his voice tremblingly said: "Please rest assured, my lord, my lord trusts the little one so much, the little one must I will do my best to make what adults want for adults!"

After receiving Laput's guarantee, Wang Ke felt relieved. I just said that I want Lapud and the others to make it as soon as possible. Now Wang Ke also feels that what he said will make these craftsmen feel that he is urging them again. , So he said with relief: "I also know that this matter can't be rushed, as long as you hurry up, I won't set a time for you, as long as what you make can meet my requirements, I will definitely reward you heavily!"

As soon as he heard Wang Ke's words, Lapud became a little excited. Before he came, he had heard Bohan tell himself that the person who asked him to do something was a high official in the imperial court. If you make what a grown-up wants, it will definitely be beneficial.

For craftsmen like them, they rely on their crafts to make a living. If they want to make a lot of money, it is not a problem to make ends meet. It's just that craftsmen have always been looked down upon, and after a long time, they feel a little hopeless Yes, a few years ago, seeing the people who came to Tang Dynasty from the east had such a good life, I also moved my mind to come from the east, but my savings were not much, and I couldn't support the consumption all the way east, so I had to continue to live in Persia .As soon as I came to Chang'an this time, I was shocked by the prosperous scene in front of me. I was fascinated by everything here. At that time, I secretly vowed in my heart that I would try my best to stay in this luxurious city.

Now when Wang Ke said that there are many rewards, Lapute was a little tempted, and asked anxiously: "My lord, you don't need any rewards. I don't know if my lord can let our family members come to Chang'an, and let our family come to Chang'an." Can I live here forever?"

As soon as Wang Ke heard this, he was overjoyed. It seemed that he could save the reward money. Isn’t it a trivial matter to stay in Chang’an? I dare not say it in other places. It is not a problem to arrange it. In addition to the lenses needed for the production of telescopes, let these craftsmen bring a few apprentices, and then build a glass workshop to produce some utensils, glass mirrors, etc. The cost is not high. The profits are huge.

But I can't say this now, I can wait until they make the lenses they need now, and now I have to pretend that this is more difficult, so that these craftsmen feel , I did my best for them in this matter, and it will be of great benefit to my follow-up arrangements in the future!
Thinking of this, Wang Ke pretended to be very embarrassed and said: "This matter is a bit difficult, but as long as you can do what I explain well, I will try my best to help you achieve this wish!"

Seeing that Wang Ke had said so much, these craftsmen, who didn't know how difficult it was, all showed expressions of gratitude, and kept bowing their hands to Wang Ke in thanks.

Now Wang Ke was really moved by the simple atmosphere of the people at this time, and couldn't help but said: "I think so, there is no problem for you to stay here with me, I think so, I see someday When you are free, go talk to Bohan, let him bring your family members along with him when he brings goods from the Western Regions to Chang'an, so that you can also make it with peace of mind, do you think it's good?"

As soon as Wang Ke said this, several craftsmen shed tears at once. They didn't expect that this adult had already thought of taking over their families before this matter started. For this era For many people, being together as a family is their greatest wish. Wang Ke's move immediately gave them the idea of ​​working hard for Wang Ke.

In fact, they didn't know it at all. Wang Ke only considered that they were doing things here, and no one would take care of them. I will definitely miss my family, and at that time, it will definitely affect my work.

There are a lot of houses in my village, even if the families of these artisans come, I can arrange for them to live. If they are taken care of, they will naturally get twice the result with half the effort, and they will pay more attention to the things they explain. Why would Wang Ke not do something that kills several birds with one stone!

Li Ke had read everything at this time, and returned to stand behind Wang Ke. He was really puzzled when he heard that Wang Ke said that he was going to pick up some family members of craftsmen. The craftsman's face was not good, and Wang Ke asked Wang Ke what his idea was. It was not until Wang Ke finished talking with a few craftsmen that the craftsmen happily dispersed and started to work. question asked.

Wang Ke explained in a low voice: "Think about it, can these artisans be let go after they have done something for us? It must be impossible! Then sooner or later their family members will also come over, since sooner or later If they want to come, it’s better to let them come early, so that they can be taken care of, and they can work more quickly, which is also beneficial to us. Besides, it’s not that I can’t arrange them here, so there is nothing to consider. Let them do more things, as long as their family members come, they will be able to work for us with peace of mind, and at that time, wouldn't it be more convenient for them to bring a few apprentices?"

After listening to Wang Ke's analysis, Li Ke gave Wang Ke a thumbs-up and said: "Brother Wang, I have already said that you should think carefully about everything and think far ahead. You can still think about things like this in the future." Go, I really admire my little brother!"

Wang Ke smiled, and said in his heart: "I haven't finished talking to you. If I finish talking, you won't praise me, and maybe you will despise me. But I won't tell you about this now, see later Let's talk about the situation."

Seeing that there is nothing wrong now, Li Ke tentatively said: "Brother Wang, is there anything else? If there is nothing else, I can go to your house. I haven't seen my little nephew for a long time, and I still feel weird!"

As soon as Wang Ke heard Li Ke's words, he immediately looked at Li Ke with contempt. Everyone was busy during this time, and Li Ke hadn't been to his home for a long time, but Wang Ke understood that he had to go to see His own son is just an excuse for Li Ke. It is true that what he misses is the food and wine at home.

But Li Ke has always been like this. Before going to his own home, he has to find a lot of reasons. The reasons like today are pretty good, but sometimes the reasons he finds make people sound like he is dragging him It's the same as before, this person who doesn't know really thinks that he is trying to curry favor with him.

Wang Ke couldn't bear to say this, and led Li Ke to find the butler of the village, and after explaining the affairs of several craftsmen, he went out with Li Ke and went home.

Not long after entering Chang'an City, Wang Ke saw Eunuch Yang in casual clothes, walking forward with his head buried.

At the same time Wang Ke saw Eunuch Yang, Li Ke also saw it, and asked Wang Ke strangely: "Brother Wang, isn't that Eunuch Yang? Why did you run out of the palace in casual clothes? Did the emperor come out?" ? But why didn’t the little brother see the shadow of the father?”

While Li Ke was talking, he turned his head and looked around, trying to find Comrade Li Er somewhere.

In fact, the moment Wang Ke saw Eunuch Yang, he had already looked around. It was true that Eunuch Yang was there alone, and Comrade Li Er didn't see him at all.

Wang Ke didn't answer, and drove the car directly next to Eunuch Yang and stopped. In Wang Ke's way, if he stopped Eunuch Yang and asked, wouldn't he understand everything? Why bother to guess here!
When Eunuch Yang saw Wang Ke's car, he got into the car without saying a word, and said anxiously: "Your Highness, Mr. Xiao Wang, our family is going to find you at Mr. Wang's house. Now Marshal Hou has I have an idea in front of the emperor, you should quickly think of a way and see how to deal with it!"
