The next morning, Nangong Yueqing was very excited. Although she went to bed very late, she still got up early. Before eating breakfast, Nangong Yueqing couldn't wait to ask Chunwen to find the craftsman as quickly as possible.

Chunwen acted well.

In less than half an hour, a carpenter and two blacksmiths knelt down in front of Nangong Yueqing, panting.

"Greetings to the princess, if the princess has anything to do, we will try our best to do it.

The three craftsmen who came here all seemed to be middle-aged men in their 40s or [-]s. They wore short hair and wore the fearful and numb look that poor people usually have on their faces. Their whole faces were hanging down, looking miserable. .

These people are all craftsmen, the most humble first-class people in this era. They have been craftsmen for generations, and they have no hope of making a comeback.

If in modern times, if Nangong Yueqing wanted to ask someone to make something for him, he would have to respectfully call the craftsman "uncle".

But in this time and space, these craftsmen who inherit the craftsmanship are particularly humble. They can only kneel down to talk to Nangong Yueqing. Even raising his head to look at her face is an offense. There is someone who wants to raise his head and talk to Nangong Yueqing. When he spoke, Chunwen sternly scolded him, "Presumptuous!"

The longer he stayed, the more Nangong Yueqing felt how painful and tortured the oppression of feudal hierarchy in this ancient world was for the people at the bottom.

Nangong Yueqing's eyes signaled to Chunwen: "It doesn't matter, as long as you can make what I want, it's all a trivial matter, please get up and talk, my neck hurts when I look down at you."

Others only said: "Thank you, Princess Princess."

Only the one who just raised his head was brave enough and said a long sentence: "Thank you, Princess, what do you want to do? Princess, don't worry, we are all old craftsmen who have been working since childhood. In this world, except for those things like Master Lu Ban, We can’t make it, so I’ll keep the other things for you, the princess, to make them properly.”

Nangong Yueqing glanced at him one more time.

This person is very active, unlike the others who are lifeless. If he is really capable, she can give him more of the machines behind her.

"What do you do?"

Seeing that Nangong Yueqing talked more to him, the man smiled with a smile on his face: "Princess Princess, I do carpentry work."

Chunwen brought the drawings and gave them to several craftsmen, and told Nangong Yueqing one by one what they did: "This one is called Mu San, who does carpentry work. These two are blacksmiths, a pair of brothers, one named Friday and Friday are called Saturday and Sunday."

He's so humble that he doesn't even have a serious name, so he picks numbers to make his name.

A trace of pity rose in Nangong Yueqing's heart.

But this is the current situation of the world. Even though she is a member of the royal family, she wants to change the lives of a few more people and how many people can she help.

Nangong Yueqing told Chunwen: "Give the pile with one on the top to the carpenter, and the rest to the blacksmith, let them have a look."

"Yes."

All three of them got the drawings and looked at them carefully.

"I had a whim yesterday and wanted to make a mechanism. I have drawn the general appearance of this mechanism. See if you can make it."

Several craftsmen originally thought it was just a novelty toy. They each received the drawings assigned by Nangong Yueqing. When they looked at the novelty on the drawings, they realized that this thing was unheard of.

Nangong Yueqing asked: "Can it be done?"

Without waiting for anyone else to speak, the craftsman who had been talking a lot agreed: "Don't worry, Princess, I will definitely be able to do it."

A blacksmith held the blueprint, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Although what the princess wants is exquisite, and it is unheard of and unseen. It is not complicated, and it is not difficult to make. It's just a commoner who dares to ask, does the princess want this thing?" Whatever you do, the common people can only pay attention and think about making this thing when doing it."

Nangong Yueqing thought for a moment and realized that the drawing the man held was the part of the machine needle: "I want it to push down the very thin thread. Other than that, there are no other requirements. You each look at what I want you to make. How long will it take to make it ready?”

The most talkative carpenter was the first to say: "If the princess wants it, it can be done in one day. Just painting and polishing cannot be done. If it is not urgent, it will take ten days to paint and smell." Half a month."

The two blacksmiths said: "It can be done in one day."

So fast.

This was somewhat beyond Nangong Yueqing's expectation. In her mind, blacksmithing and carpentry were slow, highly technical tasks that took a long time.

"The sooner the better, of course. If you can get it within today, I will reward you with ten taels of silver each. Just do it according to my way. Who wants to fool me..."

Nangong Yueqing pulled and spoke in a long voice: "It doesn't matter if you go slower, there will be reward. If you fool me, there will be no reward."

"Don't dare."

Nangong Yueqing signaled to Chunwen: "Okay, let's go back and do it. This will be used as money for you to buy materials."

Chunwen took out four silver ingots worth five taels and put them into the hands of four people respectively.

Nowadays, ordinary iron and carpentry work only costs half a tael of silver, and more is only two or three taels, which is still a good price for a good job.

As expected of the princess, the deposit was only five taels, which was generous. The three middle-aged men were overjoyed when they got the money. The bitterness and hatred on their faces spread out, and their motivation to work was fully stimulated. They wished they could do it now. Change things and come out to receive the reward.

When I walked, I walked very fast, and I wanted to fly back to the place where I was working.

After dismantling the sewing machine and outsourcing it, Nangong Yueqing realized a major issue on his mind and wanted to go back and catch up on some sleep.

Unexpectedly, the woman guarding the door came to report that the eldest lady Nangong Liji came to talk to her, give her gifts, and congratulate her on being crowned princess. She had already asked the second-class maid Hongyu to lead her to the study and served tea to the eldest lady. On fire.

Nangong Yueqing's smile disappeared: "You said, the eldest lady came to congratulate me?"

......

I don't want to see you.

The mother-in-law replied: "As for the princess, yes, the eldest lady has brought a big thing. I think it is a big gift."

Big gift?Nangong Yueqing smiled bitterly.

No amount of courtesy will be a good thing.

Nangong Liji was full of hatred for her. When she saw that she could not hold back from strangling her, she was well-educated. It was completely impossible that she came to play with her sisters. She knew with her toes what Nangong Liji was here to do. Make trouble.

But as the saying goes, don’t hit someone with a smiling face.

She is the author who came from time-travel, and she has a God's perspective. She knows that Nangong Liji now wants to peel off her skin and eat her flesh. For Nangong Liji, it is best for her to run as far as she can.

But in the eyes of others, she and Nangong Liji are still biological sisters. Although they have the same father and mother and are not very close, they are still biological sisters of the same family.

There is a difference between elder and younger. Nangong Liji is the elder sister and the elder. Although her status as a princess can alleviate the rules brought by elder and younger to a certain extent, Nangong Liji brings gifts to congratulate her. Such attentiveness makes her feel uncomfortable. No, it would be rude of her, Nangong Yueqing, to tell her.

In the eyes of thoughtful people, it may be an anomaly.

After all, no matter how much you hate it on the inside, you have to get along with it on the face of it.This is aristocratic etiquette.Just like Princess Fu hates Nangong Liji and wants to kill her, but before she actually takes action, she still feeds her well and does not abuse her like Cinderella in fairy tales.

So Nangong Liji, according to etiquette, must see her.

"What is Nangong Liji doing here?"

Nangong Yueqing walked towards the study, rubbing her temples and thinking.

The moment Nangong Yueqing stepped into the study, Nangong Liji stood up from the chair with a polite smile on her face: "Hello, sister."

Next to her stood an unexpected person from Nangong Yueqing.
