After Assistant Zhan left, Li Shimin thought about it and realized that many of the things Tang Ping taught in science could be used by the Ministry of Industry and Technology.
So Duan Lun, the minister of household affairs, was called over.
When Duan Lun heard what Li Shimin said, he immediately nodded and agreed.
In fact, at first he thought about sending officials from their Ministry of Industry to study there, but then he thought about it and realized that not only princes, but also princes and princes were in the science class.
I sent two officials there, but they seemed to be incompatible with etiquette, so I didn't say anything. I just thought about how to find Tang Ping to see if I could learn some useful knowledge for the Ministry of Industry through other channels.
As a result, now that Li Shimin brought it up himself, there was nothing else to say, so he naturally agreed quickly.
That's how he is. He would rather do well than make mistakes. If he had been replaced by another chief officer, he would have proposed it to Li Shimin long ago.
So when Tang Ping went to the new school for class again, he found that there were more people at the back of the classroom.
But as long as these people don't interfere with me, there's no problem with having so many people. Just let them sit with the children in the village and listen to the class.
The days began to become calmer. Every day, Tang Ping went to Xinxueguan for classes in the morning. In the afternoon, he had free time with these students. Most of the time, he would take a nap and then wander around Shanghe Village.
That day, he got up from his usual nap. As soon as he went out, he found Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui drinking tea in his yard.
The two of them were lying on a lounge chair, with Biluochun soaked in green tea next to them, looking carefree.
It was midsummer in the Tang Dynasty at this time, but the trees next to Tang Ping's courtyard were already in full bloom, and there was draft after the door was opened, so it was extremely cool to sit in the courtyard.
"Why are you two adults here?"
"This courtyard of the Tang University, tsk tsk, is really comfortable!"
Fang Xuanling sat up reluctantly. This was no lie. Even in his house, he felt that it might not be as comfortable as Tang Ping's place.
The main reason is that the atmosphere in Shanghe Village is so good.
"I came to see Tang University Scholar today because our workshop has been built!"
"Has the workshop been built?"
During this locust plague, Chang'an provided workers with relief work, so they found many civilian workers to build a workshop in the south of Chang'an City.
From now on, the recruitment of workers in the workshop can also solve the food problem of some landless people. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.
It's just that Tang Ping didn't expect that the workshop would be built so quickly this time.
The last time he went back to ask Gou Shaoqun to help him look for a Jenny spinning wheel, he didn't know if he could get it.
As long as there is this Jenny spinning wheel, the entire workshop can spin on a large scale.
This year we can only use the wool bought from Tubo. When cotton is planted in a large area next year, we can use cotton.
Of course, these workshops are not only used for spinning, this is just the first step in the Chang'an Industrial Zone created by Tang Ping.
Tang Ping was about to follow the two of them out when Wang Qingluan opened the door and walked out.
"Master Tang, are you going out?"
"Yes, let's go out for a walk. Miss Wang, do you want to come with us?"
The two of them would sometimes go around Shanghe Village together in the afternoon, or go fishing by the river, or go hiking on the mountain behind Shanghe Village.
"Okay!" Wang Qingluan heard Tang Ping's invitation and agreed immediately.
Fang and Du didn't care. There was nothing in the workshop now, and it wasn't a secret. Even if Wang Qingluan was closely related to the Dongyue royal family, they were not afraid that she could find out some information now.
And to be honest, many things will be brought by Tang Ping. Wang Qingluan seems to have an unusual relationship with Tang Ping. If Tang Ping really wants to teach Wang Qingluan something, they will not be able to control it.
If there were other people, they might be able to force him, but Tang Ping's identity was extraordinary in their eyes. As long as Li Shimin didn't object, they would never stand up and say anything.
Several people got on the carriage, which belonged to Fang Xuanling or Du Ruhui, and staggered towards the workshop area in the south of the city.
The reason why the workshop was not built inside Chang'an City but outside the city was because Li Shimin was confident that he would not let the army attack Chang'an City happen again.
Because both Shanghe Village and Shanghe Village are in the south direction of Chang'an City, it is actually not too far from Shanghe Village.
In other words, this workshop is not far downstream from Shanghe Village.
"Master Tang, look, this workshop by the water can use water power! But the workshop in the back mainly uses manpower."
The area occupied by this workshop is definitely not small, and new buildings of various sizes are scattered throughout.
Tang Ping has already obtained the drawings of the hydraulic spinning wheel and handed them over to the Ministry of Works. Now the craftsmen of the Ministry of Works are studying and making them.
As soon as a few people got out of the car, a lot of people gathered around them. Because neither Fang Du nor Tang Ping had ever worn government officials, no one among the common people recognized them.
"You gentlemen, do you want to open a workshop here? Do you want to recruit workers? Look at me, I am strong and capable. As long as I take care of the food, I will do a good job!"
"Master, I am the most famous embroiderer in this area. Do you want to weave? Recruit me!"
Many people gathered around to recommend themselves to a few people. The fields were destined to have little food output this year, and they had already tasted the sweetness of working out.
I built these workshops here some time ago, not only taking care of food every day, but also saving a few copper coins from my wages. Comparatively, they are really no worse than working in the fields.
The key is that being able to get cash almost every day is much better than farming and watching the weather. After all, in a disaster year like this year, if there is no harvest from the fields, people are likely to starve to death.
So many people paid attention to this workshop. After all, once your workshop is built, you have to recruit people to do the work, right?
Moreover, this kind of work is long-term and the work is considered stable. So when I saw Tang Ping and others getting off the carriage, and they didn’t look like ordinary people in their clothes, I thought they were here to open a workshop, so they all gathered around. .
Looking at those longing eyes, Tang Ping couldn't even say a word of rejection for a moment.
"Everyone, we came here today just to take a look. If we need to recruit workers in a while, we will also post the recruitment notice at the exit of the workshop over there."
When these people looking for work heard Du Ruhui's words, they all walked away regretfully. Only a few were not too determined to give up and followed a few people at a distance.
Fang Xuanling looked at the ragged people and said with some embarrassment: "It makes Miss Wang laugh!"
Wang Qingluan shook his head: "Actually, they are all working hard for themselves and their families, so how do we have the right to laugh at them?"
