Wei and Jin Cooks

   Chapter 254 Prestige (Supplementary Three)

   Hu Jin, who had only been promoted from apprentice to craftsman for a few days, blushed, and wanted to tell Zhao Hanzhang that he was not yet qualified as an apprentice, but he was a little afraid to say when he met Zhao Hanzhang's eyes.

This hesitation, he did not say any more, because Zhao Hanzhang said: "As long as you can teach a craftsman who can have the skills you have now, I will give you a share of the bookstore, if you can teach a hundred craftsmen like you. , I will give you this bookstore as a family heirloom."

  Hu Jin opened his mouth wide and looked at Zhao Hanzhang in disbelief, "Really?"

"It's more real than real gold," she laughed. "If you really earned this bookstore, I won't move all the assets, including the engravings. I'll only take the hundred craftsmen, and the rest will follow. They choose, if they want to follow me, they will follow me, if they want to follow you, I will not stop them."

   Hu Jin's eyes instantly ignited raging ambitions, young people, who doesn't have the mind to make achievements?

And Hu Jin is a craftsman. His biggest intention is to become a master craftsman and own a bookstore, which is a delusion that even his master dares not have. Now, Zhao Hanzhang has put aside the delusion and let him see hope. .

  Hu Jin said immediately: "You don't have to wait for the helpers sent by the girl to follow me in the next year."

   Zhao Hanzhang raised his eyebrows, nodded and smiled: "Okay, let's start teaching from them."

  Fu Tinghan suddenly said: "In addition to carving, they still have to find time to read characters every day. If they don't have time during the day, they will come at night."

   He and Zhao Hanzhang said: "Go to the Yushan Hall to find the well-studied children, and ask them to come over and teach them to read. Let's start with the simplest, and teach them what they have learned."

   Zhao Hanzhang: "Do you want to prepare for movable type printing?"

   Fu Tinghan nodded, "Since you have opened a literacy class, there will only be more and more literate people in the future, and movable type printing will not be so difficult."

  Hu Jin was very sensitive and immediately asked, "What is movable type printing?"

   Fu Tinghan was not stingy with this knowledge, and told him in detail what movable type printing was.

  Hu Jin was stunned, "One character, one character engraving? But how do the characters form a book? We can't compare them one by one, right? We don't know how to read, but it's not easy to find."

   "So the typesetting people have to be literate," Fu Tinghan said: "It's not urgent, let them learn the woodblock first and recognize the characters at the same time."

  Looking at Hu Jin, who was in a trance, Fu Tinghan said, "You can go with them when you take the character recognition class. Movable type printing currently only exists in theory. If you want to become a reality, you craftsmen must study it in the end."

  Hu Jin: "Fu Dalang-jun just told me about it?"

   Fu Tinghan smiled and said, "This is one of the few knowledge that can be concealed unnecessarily."

   For the rest, he and Zhao Hanzhang were not so generous.

   For example, the glass cube that has been under protection, and the steel that is progressing smoothly.

   Fu Tinghan and Zhao Hanzhang went out together, "I have to go to Wushan Mountain to see the blast furnace and steelmaking conditions there."

   Zhao Hanzhang: "It's almost the new year, the county is very lively, won't you participate?"

   She said, "I still want to visit the county town with you. Half of the credit for the construction of Xiping County is due to you."

  Fu Tinghan has been behind the scenes. Except for Chang Ning and a few others, even the other officials in the county government do not know what he has done. Zhao Hanzhang wants to publicize his credit.

  Fu Tinghan smiled and said, "I can come back and watch this event, but I don't want to be watched. You know, I'm not good at communicating with people."

   "Okay, then you come back, and we'll go out quietly to join in the fun on that day."

   Fu Tinghan nodded and went to Wushan the next day.

   When he arrived, he bumped into the people from the morning mountain teams who were judging this year's winners.

   There are a lot of people in the fields in Wushan, and there are nearly 500 people who have been punished here to work as coolies.

   It is very lively when so many people get together.

  So the chief official here, Ji Ping, took out a portion of rice, flour, grain and oil as prizes after obtaining the consent of the county government, and planned to hold an event a few years ago.

  Because they need to guard Wushan Mountain, and it is a trilogy, they cannot leave the field of Tuentian without an order.

   County town activities they cannot participate.

   Ji Ping is quite regretful. He likes this kind of activity very much, and he feels that Fu Tinghan should also like it, so after he visited Wushan and solved a few small problems of the craftsmen, he urged Fu Tinghan to return to the county.

   "When you are young, Dalang should spend time with the girl."

  I don't know since when, people around Zhao Hanzhang called Fu Tinghan Langjun together with Fu An. In order to separate from Zhao Erlang, they were all Dalangjun, the eldest son. .

  People outside who didn't know the inside story thought that Fu Tinghan was their master.

   Fu Tinghan responded and took Fu An back to the county seat.

   At this time, Xiping County was lively, even more lively than the days of Zhao's Winter Solstice Banquet.

   As the Chinese New Year is approaching, all construction sites, except for the iron ore on the Wushan side, are on holiday.

   The people who applied for work in neighboring counties received the last salary. I heard that there are various activities in Xiping County this year. Not only will rice, noodles, grain and oil be cheaper, but there is also a competition in the county government. The winners will give away rice, noodles, grain and oil for free.

   So the villagers with the money thought about it, then ran home, brought their family members, and rushed to Xiping County to buy New Year's goods.

  People from other counties came to buy New Year's goods, and people from Xiping County were not to be outdone.

  The people who survived the war have been rescued, either by being given relief or in the process of giving money for work. Although the pain in their hearts still remains, they are actually better than the next few counties in material terms.

   They also have a lot of wages, so after a discussion at home, they also felt that they needed a happy event, so they also went to Xiping County to buy New Year's goods.

  The two city gates of Xiping County were all opened, and the people who entered the city came out long and far. Everyone was carrying a basket or a sack on his back. The wealthy and some pushing carts were bustling and lively.

  Master Song's carriage went out of the city smoothly, and he didn't put down the curtains and sat upright until he walked all the way.

   "Did you see the master?"

Master Song nodded and sighed: "Zhao Hanzhang really did a good job. With the help of work, he gathered all the savages and refugees scattered in the countryside. The long-term workers and tenants who used to work in our manor have all divided their fields in a blink of an eye. Otherwise, it will go into her pocket and cultivate the official land for her."

   "This shows her prestige in Xiping County, and no one in the county will disobey her in the future."

   The staff also thought so, and sighed: "I just wonder what Zhao Ming will think?"

   Zhao Ming was looking at the things placed on the square at the entrance of the county government with great interest. He reached out and picked up an arrow and asked, "How many hits are there prizes?"

   Zhao Hanzhang: "Three arrows or more, the number is different, the reward is different."

   Zhao Ming glanced at the mouth of the pot and threw it out. The arrow fell into the pot with a ding.

See you tomorrow
