Fantasy: Starting out as a gigolo, born a Confucian sage
Chapter 66 Meeting Gift
The machine carriage stopped at Cao's house. Shen Wuming jumped out of the carriage and saw a thin, middle-aged knight standing with a sword in his hand.
As expected, this should be a disciple of the Cao family or something like that.
After all, although merchants are good at doing business, when it comes to combat effectiveness, they are definitely not as good as military strategists.
But then he saw Cao Zhuyu walking forward with a proud look on her face, "Dad, I brought someone here for you."
"Didn't you say that I can't make an appointment for you? How about I call everyone here for you now?"
Cao Zijing snorted, "It's so arrogant for you to call a man so late at night and walk around like this."
Just now Cao Zhuyu left immediately, but he was very angry.
I have been waiting at the door now, just worried that Cao Juyu might cause some problems, hey, it turned out to be true.
He opened the curtain and swaggered through the city. Now everyone in Zhongshan County knew that his daughter went to hook up with a man late at night.
"Who asked you to force me?" Cao Zhuyu hummed, "Okay, everyone is here, let's talk quickly."
father?
Only then did Shen Wuming realize that Cao Cao, who was famous all over the world, was so handsome.
Not to mention how dashing he was when he was young, even with his current posture, he doesn't know how many beautiful middle-aged women he can attract.
"Uncle Cao!"
Shen Wuming reacted and quickly stepped forward to salute. After all, the two families were still cooperating.
Even with that little bit of cooperation, there probably wouldn’t even be a chance for it to be handed over to Cao Zijing.
"Young Master Shen, I have admired you for a long time."
Although Cao Zijing deeply hated Shen Wuming for seducing his daughter, he could still talk about business.
This time he was talking about cooperation with Shen Wuming, so naturally he would not bring his personal grudges into it at this time.
"Why don't you come in and talk?" Cao Zijing pointed to the courtyard, and Shen Wuming nodded quickly.
"Okay, by the way, it's my first time to visit my uncle. I brought some specialties from home. I'll get them."
He turned to the carriage, took out a wooden box, and handed it to Cao Zijing.
Cao Zijing was a little confused and was about to reach out to take it, but Cao Zhuyu quickly stepped forward and hugged it, squeezing it against his chest.
The graceful and expanding arc made Shen Wuming look sideways.
Although Cao Juyu was wearing an extremely conservative black official uniform, the problem... the shape and size were still huge.
Cao Zijing couldn't help but show disgust and contempt when he saw Cao Zhuyu looking like he had never seen the world.
"My little girl has never seen the world, making Master Shen laugh..."
Cao Zijing was still polite, but Cao Juyu rolled his eyes.
Although she didn't know what was inside the box, she knew that what Shen Wuming took out would definitely subvert their three views.
"I haven't seen the world? Do you want to see which of us has never seen the world?" Cao Zhuyu snorted coldly.
"You...you unfilial daughter..." Cao Zijing was so angry.
Although he always dotes on Cao Juyu, Cao Juyu is also well-educated and sensible and will not disobey him in front of outsiders.
But in front of Shen Wuming, his good girl seemed to have changed into a different person, which made him secretly hate her.
Even if he was a normal unmarried man, Cao Zijing might not be so angry.
But this is a married man, and his daughter looks like he is supporting her. What is he doing?
Is it possible to marry her as a concubine?
"You..." Cao Zijing's face darkened, but before he could say anything, he saw Cao Zhuyu opening the box.
Inside the box is something similar to a spinning wheel, but more refined and smaller, similar to a model.
"That's it?" Cao Zijing had deep doubts in his eyes. Could it be some kind of ornament?
"Go in and talk."
Shen Wuming looked at the people coming and going outside, "This thing may be of some use to the Cao family's weaving workshop."
After hearing this, Cao Zijing suddenly looked serious and quickly brought Shen Wuming and Cao Juyu to the living room.
Seeing that there were still servants around, he quickly ordered, "All of you, go down and leave no one around."
Although he didn't know what the use of this thing was, he believed that Dingzhou Jieyuan would not joke about it.
What's more, although he secretly hated Shen Wuming for seducing his daughter, he still recognized his talent.
Whether it is the art of cement manufacturing or the art of building bridges with oysters, they are both extremely clever.
After he got the news, he hurriedly asked people to make cement and prepare it for sale.
Even secretly regretting it, why would Shen Wuming make such an invention public? Isn't it good to stay?
When the time comes, if you quietly produce cement, you can become a cement king and be rich enough to be the best in the world.
Now, Shen Wuming has come up with his own invention. It can be imagined that it must be of great value.
But this silly son of a landlord may not care, but may have it made public again.
Will he not lose much by then?
It was promised as a gift to him, but others could not take advantage of it.
After making sure that no one was eavesdropping, Cao Zijing formed a seal with his hands again, and his body was filled with a light golden glow.
It instantly spread throughout the space, and rather mysterious runes appeared on the surrounding beams and pillars.
"Okay, I guarantee that no one will eavesdrop. Now you can speak." Cao Zijing looked serious.
"Not that much."
Seeing him making such a big move, Shen Wuming spread his hands and said, "It's just a little thing."
"It's okay. Just be careful and you won't make a big mistake." Cao Zijing didn't think he was going too far, but that was how it should be.
Cao Zhuyu rolled his eyes. Who was saying that he had never seen the world? Really!
"Okay..." Shen Wuming didn't care. He was willing to play whatever he wanted.
"This thing is called the Jenny Spinning Machine. Simply put, it can weave more cloth than the traditional spinning wheel."
"Look at the spindles on it... By the way, Uncle Cao has seen the traditional spinning wheel, right?"
"I know." Cao Zijing nodded. He had carefully observed the business under his command.
Only then would he make up his mind to invest.
"Traditional spinning wheels usually have only one spindle, but you have eight on it... which means..."
He vaguely thought of something, but he couldn't believe it. He looked at Shen Wuming nervously and expectantly.
Shen Wuming nodded, "The number of spindles on a spinning wheel determines its spinning speed."
"There are eight on it, which means it is eight times more efficient than a traditional spinning wheel. In theory, it can be increased."
"I have imagined that there can be up to 80 spindles, but it has not been produced."
"If you have time later, you can let your subordinates try it and expand it according to this idea."
The Jenny spinning machine is not very difficult. Shen Wuming has seen a simple structural diagram in the section about the Industrial Revolution in the history book.
Originally, he could not remember it clearly, but now his cultivation has improved rapidly, and he has a supernatural comprehension.
The vague memories in his mind have become clearer.
So he drew the blueprint according to his impression, and then asked two people from the Cao family workshop to build it.
He did not alarm others before, and the finished product happened to come out two days ago, so he thought of using it as a gift.
