After some turmoil, the capital has regained its former tranquility.
Li Yuanzhao gradually became busy as before.
The construction of the first phase of glass greenhouses in the eastern suburbs has long been completed, and off-season vegetables have also been grown.
After the listing, of course Li Yuanzhao's efforts were indispensable.
Naturally, he followed Fang Zhengyi's routine and imitated others!
It was announced to the outside world that it was a rejuvenating vegetable, and then it was promoted through newspapers.
The nobles in the capital are naturally very coveted for this rare thing, and even if it is priced much more expensive than ordinary vegetables, they are all sold out.
However, the limited quantity does not mean that I can make much money. It can only be said to be a small test.
Apart from the eastern suburbs, the place Li Yuanzhao visited most was the Banshan Textile Factory.
As other cloth merchants gradually began to have their own textile machines, the Banshan Textile Factory was not as busy as it was during the shortage of winter clothes.
However, since it was Li Miaohan who was personally intervening, Li Yuanzhao was still a little more attentive.
Production records and accounts were sent to Mingluan Hall by him personally every now and then.
Young people always have unlimited energy, so he doesn't mind trouble and does everything by himself.
Over time, I have become more experienced and capable in doing things.
This day was no exception. After Li Yuanzhao took the production records and accounts from the textile factory, he hurried to Mingluan Hall.
As soon as he stepped into the hall, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice suddenly came to his ears, and his movements couldn't help but stagnate.
Then he walked inside cautiously.
He didn't take more than two steps and suddenly stood still, looking ahead blankly.
I saw Li Miaohan playing with a textile machine, operating it unskilledly, and there were two or three maids assisting him.
Li Miaohan's movements were quite clumsy, but his attitude was extremely serious. Even Li Yuanzhao didn't notice when he walked next to him.
After playing with it for a while, it seemed that he had found a way. Li Miaohan began to sit on the chair and began to operate rhythmically.
Li Yuanzhao didn't say a word, but stood quietly behind her and watched. It wasn't until Li Miaohan weaved a short piece of cloth, with a slight sweat on his forehead that he smiled and said, "Miaohan, how do you weave the cloth?" Did the machine get to the palace?"
Li Miaohan was still immersed in the joy of her first success, but she turned around in panic when she heard a sound.
When he saw it was Li Yuanzhao, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Emperor, why do you make no sound when you walk?"
"I asked Eunuch Guo to get this textile machine for me yesterday. I thought about arranging textile factories all the time, but I had never tried it myself, so I got one and wanted to give it a try. This way I can also understand the daily life of female workers. How exactly does it work?"
"Yeah, but now it doesn't seem to be very difficult."
A proud smile flashed across Li Miaohan's face.
"Haha, yes! It's very simple. If a pig has long hands, it can weave cloth." Li Yuanzhao put the production records and accounts on the loom with a smile, and then said: "I can understand this thing at a glance! It's still useful Do you want to move him to the palace?"
Li Miaohan's expression suddenly froze when she heard this, and then she said angrily: "What are you doing here? Leave quickly!"
Li Yuanzhao curled his lips and said with a mysterious face: "Hi! I have news about Lao Fang that I want to tell you. If you don't let me stay, I will leave."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
"Don't go!" Li Miaohan shouted hurriedly, holding the corner of her clothes, and looked at Li Yuanzhao a little more nervously.
"If you have any news, please tell me!"
Knew it! The stubborn old Fang really deceived our girl! This shameless guy always feels that he is not clear with the maid below him. How can he have the nerve to seduce my girl?
Li Yuanzhao showed disdain and said angrily: "He is dead!"
died? !
Li Miaohan suddenly felt an iron hammer hitting her heart hard, and her face instantly turned pale.
For a moment, the world was spinning, and my chest was feeling tight.
But in the blink of an eye, I saw Li Yuanzhao's expression again, and suddenly realized, I couldn't help but feel bitter in my heart, and my eyes were filled with mist, and I said angrily: "Brother! How can you curse him to death? He regards you as a close friend, you say this Does this still count as a person? Get out, I don’t want to see you!”
He turned his head and pursed his lips, then started working on the loom.
Seeing that she was really angry, Li Yuanzhao didn't dare to tease her any more, and said hurriedly: "Sister, I'm teasing you! We grew up together and have been together for so long, why can't I be better than Lao Fang? You and him are just the best How long have we known each other?"
"You are far worse than him..." Li Miaohan sighed leisurely.
Click!
A bolt of lightning passed over Li Yuanzhao's head, and his whole person seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds.
Li Yuanzhao looked shocked, took two steps back, pointed at Li Miaohan, and said in disbelief: "You...say it again? How am I worse than him?"
"Everything is wrong! He has the world in mind, speaks righteously, is a gentleman, mature and steady...and is eloquent! Do you think the same thing?"
Li Yuanzhao's expression gradually became distorted.
Has this girl’s impure brain been eaten by a dog? Which of these words is related to Lao Fang? Why didn't I see it before? This guy, Lao Fang, seems to be much better at deceiving women than anything else!
"Okay! Everything you said is right! I'm leaving!" Li Yuanzhao tossed his sleeves and angrily prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute!" Li Miaohan called him again.
Li Yuanzhao turned around impatiently and said, "What's wrong?"
"Lend me some money."
Huh? Borrowing money is a rare thing, this is the first time!
Li Yuanzhao looked surprised: "Why did you borrow the money?"
Li Miaohan thought for a while and said: "I heard from people below that there are many abandoned babies in the capital, and they are all female babies. I want to collect some money to help them."
"I did the math, I'm afraid my monthly money and jewelry are not enough, so I want to borrow some from you, about five hundred taels, and maybe more in the future."
Li Yuanzhao raised his head and thought for a while, then said: "This is a good thing, but if you throw money into it yourself, it will be a bottomless pit! How about this, you cut off the monthly salary of the female workers in the textile factory, and you can use the extra money Are you helping abandoned babies? If you don’t have enough money, save as little as possible.”
Li Miaohan was immediately surprised and said: "What are you talking about! I can use my own money to subsidize, but how can I use female workers' money?"
"Actually, it doesn't count as taking the female workers' money. The female workers in the textile factory obviously hire two arms, but what we pay is the whole person. Now that we have cut it off, it has just returned to the normal price. Well, that's true!" Li Yuanzhao touched his chin and said.
He was thinking about the appropriate amount of wages when he suddenly caught a glimpse of Li Miaohan, whose eyes were full of anger. He quickly put down his hand and asked, "What's that look in your eyes?"
"Are you speaking human language?" Li Miaohan was angry.
"But this is what Lao Fang said!" Li Yuanzhao looked innocent. Before Lao Fang left, because there were more and more people competing for female worker positions, he kept talking about higher wages and higher benefits. Control costs and so on.
"You still dare to arrange him? Get out! Go away! I don't want to see you!!" Li Miaohan was so angry that her breathing was uneven, and she pointed at the rising and falling chest outside the hall.
Li Yuanzhao said coquettishly: "I...I'm kidding! I'll have someone send me two thousand taels of silver later. You don't have to think about Lao Fang all the time. He is the most thief, so he must be fine! Maybe he just wants to take the opportunity to give Take a vacation by yourself, I'm hanging out in some brothel right now! I'm leaving!"
"Get out of here!"
Seeing him running away, Li Miaohan's pretty face turned red with anger, and suddenly she thought of Fang Zheng and felt a little flustered.
After thinking for a while, my thoughts became more and more confusing, so I put my hand on the loom and started operating it again.
The maid on the side said worriedly: "Your Highness, please stop knitting. I'm afraid your hands will develop calluses over time."
Li Miaohan shook his head and said: "Don't worry about me. You can't just do things lightly. I have to weave two pieces of cloth first."
"When you're busy, you don't have to think about anything..."
