Forced to farm for the princess

Chapter 42 The New Craftsman

Lin Heng poured himself a glass of water, looked at Wei Ruojin, saw that he didn't respond, and said, "What's wrong? You seem to be angry."

"Why am I angry?" Wei Ruojin continued to scrape the ink stains on the bamboo slips, with a heavy hand, and scraped off a large area.He put down the carving knife in his hand, sighed, and felt that he might have thought too much and was not as open-minded as before.

People grow up in this life.

"It's just that I'm unhappy. After hearing someone report, the Chen family wants to give you a gift."

"The Chen family wants to give it to me?" Lin Heng swallowed quickly, "I won't accept it, don't think about it."

Wei Ruojin remained expressionless, "Today the Chen family will send you off, and tomorrow there will be the Wang family, Li family, and Xie family. The prince is becoming more and more popular."

"Thousands of things are good, but they can't match Ah Jin's kindness." Lin Heng leaned closer to Wei Ruojin.

"Sweaty all over, hurry up and wash it off." Wei Ruojin couldn't help but show a slight smile, and called Xin Yi to prepare water.

After taking a shower, when Lin Heng came back, Wei Ruojin had calmed down and was rubbing her wrists.Seeing him coming in, he asked, "Didn't you meet the Chen brothers when you came back?"

"I didn't come in through the gate. Why is the Chen family still guarding the gate? I'll have someone drive them away."

Wei Ruojin stopped Lin Heng, "The two younger ones came, and I didn't bring anyone with me. I don't want to talk to the Chen family for the time being."

"Then ignore it, just leave it to me."

It was completely dark, Chen Hang whispered to Chen Wei: "Brother, shall we go back first?"

Chen Wei was silent for a while, hesitation flashed across his face, and he shook his head again, "At this time, the family must know that we are here, if we go back now, we are afraid that we will prevent them from sending people to the Northwest Palace, and they will definitely lock us up. Continue to wait until the prince is willing to see us."

"Brother, do you really want to do this? The Chen family..."

"Are you hesitating? There will be a second time for this kind of thing, and the methods will only become more and more despicable. The children of the family have the character of the children of the family. Do you know that I come out to do things every time?"

Chen Hang remained silent, he was a member of the Chen family, so naturally he should contribute to the Chen family.But what the Chen family is doing now is completely different from the ideas he has received since he was a child, which makes it difficult for him to accept.

Wei Ruojin put together the written bamboo slips. Today there are a lot of Chinese medicine diagnosis. Tom Mo has never been in touch with these, so it should be enough for him to read for a while. He just took advantage of this time to get the printing out.

Lin Heng saw Wei Ruojin put down the scroll, so he put it down too, and was about to go to bed. Just as he put down the tent, he heard Butler Shang shouting from outside: "General, son, the two masters of the Chen family are still standing outside."

The two looked at each other, and Lin Heng had no choice but to get dressed, "Take me to the study."

Wei Ruojin also sighed, "Don't worry, I'm not here to see you off, go and come back quickly."

Lin Heng was upset, he would have seen him when he came back, and now he can't sleep.When they arrived at the study room, Chen Wei and Chen Hang knelt down neatly, with the intention of pleading guilty.

"Last time I knelt outside the mansion, and this time I blocked the palace again. I'm afraid the Chen family will become the laughing stock of Xinglin City." Lin Heng didn't call out, and the two brothers of the Chen family didn't dare to do so.

"The fine salt is also photographed, what else is your Chen family going to do?"

Chen Wei kowtowed, and explained Old Master Chen's plan. He raised his eyes to look at Lin Heng. Seeing his expressionless face, he was not sure what he meant, and said, "My lord, the Chen family in the northwest is just He and An Qin's ancestors of the Chen family belonged to one family, but they are no longer considered a family, and Wei does not want to see the Chen family in Xinglin City in the future."

Only then did Lin Heng raise his eyes to look at him, "That depends on what the Chen family can do, or what you, Chen Wei, can do."

"The prince has a life, and he will die!"

Chen Wei kowtowed again, and Chen Hang kowtowed too. He is a smart man, but not a smart man. At this point, he vaguely felt that his brother had reached an agreement with the Northwest King, and he could feel the decline of the Chen family. .

"My lord, my little brother is clueless, please be considerate of me." Chen Wei said again.

"The king knows, you go down and rest." As soon as Lin Heng finished speaking, someone took the two brothers out immediately.He just returned to the main courtyard, but Wei Ruojin had already fallen asleep.

After breakfast, when Tom Mo came to look for his master, he found a young man with white skin and black hair standing outside the study, so he took a second look. The young man's eyes swept across his face, and then lowered slightly head.

Before Wei Ruojin came to the study, Tang Mo went in to find some books to read, and when he turned around, he saw the young man outside staring at him, he shook the book in his hand, and said, "You came here to find Master too? He will come later, so you can take whatever books you want to read."

Chen Hang opened his mouth, thinking of his elder brother's instructions before leaving in the morning, he closed his mouth again, quietly waiting for Wei Ruojin to come.

Wei Ruojin's study room was used a little more after Tang Mo came. Compared with the bedroom in the main courtyard, it only lacked a bed.When he came, Tomer had already read most of the book.

"Master."

"Son."

Wei Ruojin looked at Chen Hang, feeling a little surprised, she slept too fast yesterday, and forgot how Lin Heng chatted with the two brothers, and why someone brought him to him again.

"Come in." After finishing speaking, he looked at Tomer again, "You read these first, and I will tell you when you are familiar with them."

"Yes, Master." Tang Mo took the bamboo slips handed over by Wei Ruojin, looked at Chen Hang who was following him, and asked, "Master, this is..."

"You actually asked someone else, go read a book." Wei Ruojin drove Tang Mo to a corner.Then he looked at Chen Hang and asked, "What did the lord tell you?"

"My lord didn't tell me anything, my elder brother told me to come directly to Young Master, and Young Master will have something to tell me."

Chen Hang's behavior was really honest, and it was completely different from when he first came to the palace and scolded the untouchables loudly. Wei Ruojin began to wonder what happened to the Chen family, which made people change so much.

"In this case, continue what I asked you to do before, and go with Tang Mo." Seeing the expression on Chen Hang's face changed, Wei Ruojin shut her mouth immediately when she wanted to say something, kowtowed, and sat down with Tang Mo beside.

Wei Ruojin found it interesting, and Chen Hang's reaction was a bit interesting.When Lin Heng came back in the evening, he would ask what happened to the Chen family.

Picking up the records I wrote, I focused my eyes on the salt. The reason why the common people could not afford to eat salt was that the production of salt was small and the transportation was inconvenient. The closer to the center of the land, the more difficult it was to transport salt.

Therefore, the price of official salt is often high, which is why ancient salt can involve so many people.And his fine salt is sold so cheaply, there must be private salt dealers, and the salt must only be controlled by the court officials.

It is time to strengthen regulation.

Chamber of Commerce.

Wei Ruojin wrote these two words, the composition of the chamber of commerce must be big businessmen who can speak; in the evening, he will have a good chat with Lin Heng about this issue.

"Master, I've finished reading, but I don't quite understand this." Tang Mo saw Wei Ruojin put down his pen, and then said, "I felt the pulse of my own and Mr. Chen's, and I didn't see any difference."

Wei Ruojin told him slowly, and after a while, it was approaching noon, and he was a little tired from talking, so he said to Xin Yi outside the study: "Let's have lunch here, and by the way, call Mr. Qin to eat together."

"Mr. Qin, use less sweet potatoes. If you eat too much, it will be a burden on your body." Seeing that Qin Chong wanted to take a sweet potato after eating it, Wei Ruojin hurriedly stopped him.

Qin Chong didn't show any embarrassment on his face, "Listen, my son, I've been taking care of you for several days, and my health is much better. It's just that this sweet potato tastes delicious and sweet, and I'm greedy for a while."

"Eat a little less at a time, so you can eat it more often?" Wei Ruojin smiled. He didn't like sweets and didn't notice it for a while. Now that he heard Qin Chong say that, he remembered that there was very little sugar in this era. .

After they had eaten, Wei Ruojin took the pulse and signaled Tang Mo to try it.

"I've heard about the young master's acceptance of apprentices, but the young master has been busy, so I don't want to disturb you. Now I just take this opportunity to express my heart and thank you for your kindness." Qin Chong took out a piece of paper from his pocket with his left hand. The cloth is given to Wei Ruojin.

"This is not a good thing. Even if there are still people in the Qin family who don't know where it is, please accept it as a reward." Qin Chong smiled, his eyes fell on the cloth, and he was also full of reluctance. The Qin family had their last thoughts.

Back then when he was young and dissatisfied with the rule that only the children of the aristocratic family could study, he ran away from home. He never wanted to come back, the Qin family no longer existed, and now all that was left was this piece of cloth.

He hesitated for a long time before making this decision, and simply sent it out, so as not to regret it in the future.

"Mr. Qin will take advantage of it. One gift should be given twice." Wei Ruojin looked at the leg-colored cloth, and his expression changed after reading the two lines. After reading it, he smiled, "I thank Mr. Qin here. .”

"I should thank you son."

Chen Hang was a little curious about what was written on the cloth, so he asked, looking at Tang Mo silently.After a while, Tom Mo pulled Chen Hang's wrist again.

Wei Ruojin looked at the change on Tang Mo's face, and once again recognized Tang Mo's ability to be a top student. He didn't dare to do this when he was learning pulse diagnosis, and he would be beaten by his grandfather.

Xin Yi was about to speak, but seeing that the study was extremely quiet, she didn't dare to speak directly.Seeing this, Wei Ruojin went outside so that she could talk.

"My lord, the housekeeper Shang has come to report that the craftsmen have arrived, and there are only five carpenters you want."

"what about others?"

"Others..." Xin Yi was a little hard to say, "The others are blacksmiths, and they are all assigned."

Wei Ruojin doesn't care who the other party is now, the craftsman's status is low, and most of them are domestic slaves; even if they are allotted, they are probably allotted with the master. Now that someone buys it, it is natural to sell it quickly.

It's better to come at a good time than to come at a good time. The cloth Qin Chong just gave was about forging methods. A group of blacksmiths happened to come, and the raw coal was also available. The weapons that could be broken at once would probably be a thing of the past.

"Go and have a look." Wei Ruojin was very excited, and glanced at the study room. Tang Mo let go of his hand at some point and was writing something with a pen.

It happened that Xin Yi said that there was a carpenter, and all three of them were literate, so he said, "A craftsman is here in the mansion. I'm going to have a look. Are you going?"

Chen Hang got up quickly, the princess seemed to be asking for their opinions, it must be that they had to go; I really don't know what the princess was thinking, what's so good about a craftsman?

When Wei Ruojin arrived, Butler Shang was accommodating the new craftsman in the servant's room. Except for Butler Shang's voice, these craftsmen were all dumb as if they let Butler Shang speak.
