Parents are busy farming

I don’t know why, but when everyone heard Ye Zifen talking about the workshop he wanted, they all felt relaxed, especially the Minister of Industry.

Why did the Minister of Works have to take those workers away? Was it because he wanted to complete the tasks left by the imperial court?

Do you think he doesn’t want to bring some capable people over and learn how to make it himself? Why! There is also something unspeakable in this.

Probably because this year the Holy Spirit sent several groups of people to manage the river.

When each group of people goes down, they will come to their Ministry of Industry to ask for people, and they must be elites with various technologies from their Ministry of Industry.

How big can a Ministry of Industry be and how many people can it have? One person will leave today and another will leave tomorrow. Sometimes they will even write back and name people they want to come over and solve some problems.

As of now, only a few of their important officials are left in the Ministry of Industry, as well as these related households who came in through connections.

Of course, there are also some newcomers whose abilities they don’t know much about, so they can only try to expose them to some things.

This time we came down to learn the technology of making windmills, which was a good study for them. Who would have thought that they could not learn it despite being given the drawings and even taught step by step.

At that time, the Minister was also very embarrassed, but what could be done!

Since these people can't learn, we can only bring all these technicians back to Beijing.

Doesn't he know that Magistrate Su has become dissatisfied with him since he made this request? But he is also very difficult!

Magistrate Su County breathed a sigh of relief, because as long as a local workshop was built, wouldn't the manufactured windmills be used first by people in their own county? He understands the principle of those who are near the water and the towers first get the moon!

So before anyone else could speak, Magistrate Su said: "You are doing this for the country and the people. I will go out and find a place for you later. This time, the Yamen will not accept you in the manufacturing workshop." It’s money. We can’t just keep manufacturing it in the county government office!”

Ye Zifen frowned unconsciously when she heard what County Magistrate Su said. She just had an idea, but she hadn't thought clearly about how to do it. In addition, the people from the Ministry of Industry were still here, so it was such a hasty decision. Is it really good?

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry couldn't help but say, "How this matter is decided is not up to you. I will go back and submit a letter later to listen to His Majesty's opinion!"

After saying this, he stood up and walked out.

When other people from the Ministry of Industry saw that their master was leaving, they also stood up and followed him.

The young master of the Hong family was the last one to stand up, but after he stood up, he gave Ye Zifen a thumbs up, his face full of pride.

After Ye Zifen smiled back, he walked out.

Magistrate Su did not leave, but asked Ye Zifen: "Have you really decided?"

Instead, Ye Zifen asked Magistrate Su: "Have I not been put on the shelf?"

Magistrate Su felt a little embarrassed when he heard his answer.

Ye Zifen comforted him: "Don't be too stressed. I'm not just doing this for you, but also for those people outside. They don't want to leave their hometown. I have to find a way to keep them! If this doesn't work. , then we can only send these people to Beijing, but before sending them to Beijing, we must let them teach their apprentices."

Of course, these people are unwilling to leave their hometown. Among them, Chen Lixing and Chen Xinyang are young, and the others are at least in their thirties.

They have lived in a place where they have lived for so many years, and their relatives are all here. If they are asked to go to a place they are not familiar with, and they don't know what the future will be like, they will definitely not want to!

After Ye Zifen finished speaking, Magistrate Su said: "I will also hurry up and write a note. By the way, I will tell the court what we just discussed."

He was also afraid that the Holy Father would listen to the words of the Minister of Industry.

Ye Zifen nodded, "Then you go ahead and write. I'll comfort the people outside first, and then I'll quickly go elsewhere to take a look. After you get the land approved, I'll start building the workshop. Manufacturing method Before it is completed, we can only let them occupy the small courtyard of the Yamen."

Magistrate Su waved his hand: "It's okay, just use it for now, don't worry!"

When he walked out of the door and saw the people in the yard, they immediately stopped what they were doing and looked at him.

He saw their eager eyes, but he didn't stop and continued walking forward.

A: "I don't know what they said. When those people from the Ministry of Industry left just now, they didn't seem to be as cold to us as before. Does it mean that Miss Ye has agreed to let us follow?"

B: "What should I do? I have an old mother and children. Now my family cannot live without me. Now I am busy working in the county every day, and I can go home to take care of them at night. What will they do if they go to the capital? ?”

Chen Lixing: "Don't worry, we have to believe in the girl from the Ye family. Isn't she out yet? When she comes out, I will ask for you."

When Zi Zifen came out, she happened to hear Chen Lixing say this, saying: "It's not yet decided whether you will stay or go, but what is certain is that you need to bring out a few apprentices in a short time. I don't know what the county is doing." Are there anyone as talented as you? If you have suitable candidates, bring them in."

Everyone heard Ye Zifen say that there was no decision yet, and they were both anxious and hopeful.

How they hope that when Ye Zifen comes out, she will tell them that they don’t have to leave home!

A: "Alas! Miss Ye is back, and I am still worried about this matter. My heart is also in a state of anxiety."

B: "Oh, who says it's not the case? But since Miss Ye has already said, let's find suitable people to recommend, so let's think about who has skills like ours. Don't really delay things! This is the imperial court. The assigned tasks, if we are delayed, don’t worry about your neck and head.”

Listening to their pessimistic words, Ye Zifen said with a smile: "Okay, don't be so pessimistic! Although I am not 100% sure that you will stay, there is still 60% chance. I don't want to tell you this because I am afraid that you will go out. You're offending people with your nonsense. And even if we don't go to the capital, our workload will be huge, which means we need to make more windmills, so you can't relax."

B: "Miss Youye, you can calm down a little bit with your words. Don't worry, we will not only speed up the process, but also teach the people who want to learn as soon as possible."

Seeing that they were no longer anxious, Zi Zifen felt much more comfortable. Then she looked at Chen Lixing and Chen Xinyang and remembered what she promised to Mr. Mo.
