Tang Bohu Marries Qiuxiang

Chapter 29
"How do you know it's a stove." While talking, Tang Bohu's hands didn't stop.

"Your Majesty's mud has some tricks in it." The old worker continued, "This kind of mud is similar to the one used on the stove, but you have added some other things to make this kind of mud very resistant to burning."

Tang Bohu nodded: "I have some skills, so tell me what I added to the mud?"

"I don't dare to say that!" The old foreman continued, "I can't say that either."

"You're quite old, but your brain is not confused. How about I give you a big deal." Wiping off the mud on his hands, he looked at the old foreman Tang Bohu and said, "After I make this stove, I will teach you how to do it." How do you do it! Then you can use this stove to sell money."

"My lord loves you." The old foreman neither refused nor agreed.

Wrap it into a barrel with iron sheets. After everything is finished, wait for the stove to be fired. You can try it tomorrow. Give the rough embryo of the coal stove to the old foreman to do the final finishing. When you get home, Qiuxiang is already asleep. Sleepy, looking at the night sky without light pollution, sleepiness soon came to my heart.

"I'm back." Qiuxiang murmured in a daze when she felt Tang Bohu came to the bed.

Looking at her sleeping face, I am only 14 years old this year!Turning 15 in a few months!That is to say, before the age of 17, you must complete the task assigned by Mrs. Hua in order to marry Qiuxiang Mingmei!That is she is his wife in the true sense. In ancient times, the adult age was around 16 years old. Now Qiuxiang feels like a child bride.

After sleeping until noon, Tang Bohu saw Niu Er leading a large group of boys to exercise. In front of the old foreman was a coal stove that had already been formed. It seemed that the firing was successful.

"My lord, it's burning out." The old foreman reported.

Looking at the results Tang Bohu put a pile of small firewood into the coal stove and lit it, and then put in pieces of coal until the coal was completely burned. Tang Bohu continued to add coal, and adjusted the small hole at the bottom of the coal stove to control the size of the fire. The old foreman's eyes became brighter the more he looked.

"Dare to ask my lord how much this thing costs."

Tang Bohu went on to say: "The coal stove can be reinforced, I can't do it very well! Although such a coal stove is convenient to use, the service life will not be too long, and some parts can be improved! And the cost of this thing is not high. , the price should be cheaper, it is best for ordinary people to afford it.”

"What your lord said is very true!" The old foreman nodded and said, "I don't know what your lord said last night. If you want to give the old man a big deal, I can't figure it out."

"Of course it counts!" Tang Bohu looked at the new home that was still under construction and said, "But I will organize these workers on hand into a Tang's engineering team."

"My lord is planning to pay them wages?"

"You and I master the core technology of this coal stove! I'm the boss of Tang's engineering team, and you are the foreman! I get [-]% of the silver you get from selling the coal stove! You get [-]% and the rest is up to you Distribute it to the workers under your hands."

"Has your Excellency been in business before?" said the old foreman.

"No!" Tang Bohu replied decisively.

"My lord might as well listen to my villain!" The old foreman went on to say, "Workers don't have to take a commission, just give them a fixed monthly wage! Your lord takes [-]%, and [-]% of the profit can be shared with us, saving money. It went to the worker's commission."

After hearing the conversation between the two, Qiu Xiang also stepped forward and said, "We will get [-]% and the other [-]% will be distributed to the old foreman, but we will not participate in the production! The sales will be provided by our Tang family."

Seeing Tang Bohu's gaze, Qiuxiang continued, "Our Huafu originally had some business dealings with Jiangnan in the capital! Over the years, I have done a lot of things with Mrs. Hua, and I just don't want my husband to suffer."

"It's okay, it's okay!" Tang Bohu smiled awkwardly: "Actually, I don't know how to do business, that's great, since you have experience, I will take care of it for you."

Qiuxiang and the old foreman had full authority to discuss the next matter. Tang Bohu put on his Jinyiwei uniform and planned to go to the capital for a stroll. Although the work was not a big deal, he had to look good.

"Young master! Someone wants to see you!" The servant came to Tang Bohu and said, "It seems to be an official in the capital. It's a child and there are a few eunuchs behind him."

"Zhu Houzhao!" Tang Bohu immediately knew how this brat knew where he lived.

"Brother Tang!" As soon as he saw Tang Bohu and Zhu Houzhao, he came over excitedly.

Tang Bohu bowed his chest and said, "I've seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"There's no need to be too polite!" Zhu Houzhao waved his hands and said, "Tang Yin, Tang Bohu, you are a talented man after all. It shouldn't be a problem to write poems or words."

"What do you want to do, Your Highness?"

Zhu Houzhao put one foot on the bench and said: "Today, my father found a teacher for me. That old guy talked so much that I had to sit in front of him and listen to him for most of the day. My dignified prince How can time be wasted on him, so I thought of a trick, I made an agreement with that old guy, as long as I can write an article that satisfies him, he can let me go."

"It turned out that I was asked to write a fuss, but this poem and lyrics can't be done overnight." Tang Bohu shook his fan vigorously, "Recently, the family's expenses are tight and there is no income. It really makes me a headache. In this case, the prince Your Highness asked me how to write poetry."

"Liu Jin takes the money!" Zhu Houzhao said to the eunuch behind him.

"Yes!" Liu Jinyan obediently put several money bags on the table.

Assessing that the weight was about a few hundred taels of silver, Tang Bohu said with satisfaction: "Seeing these silver coins, I suddenly started thinking like a fountain. I don't know what kind of article His Royal Highness wants."

"Of course we want the best one. It's best to speak your mind, the one that is deafening! The one that can scare the old guy speechless in the end."

"His Royal Highness, are you sure?" Tang Bohu asked again.

Zhu Houzhao nodded vigorously.

Picking up a pen, Tang Bohu wrote down a few lines with ease!Naturally, he closed his pen and stood aside, Zhu Hou looked at these lines, breathing heavily, "Very good! That's all! Tang Bohu, you really have some talent!"

"Where does the literary talent come from? This article is obviously written by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhu Houzhao nodded vigorously and said, "Hahahaha! Tang Bohu, you are indeed a wonderful person! Xu Pengju is right, you are very interesting!"

"You know Fatty Xu!"

"Let go..." Liu Jin just wanted to scold Tang Bohu for being rude, but when he saw Tang Bohu and the prince talking and laughing, he immediately stopped talking, thinking about what point Tang Bohu had caught the prince, and made the prince treat him Such a pleaser.
