Officials in the Zhou Dynasty usually had two sets of clothes.
One set of clothes is the official uniform.
Worn on formal occasions.
For example, when some leaders hold formal meetings and many people gather to discuss things, they wear official uniforms.
And there is another set of clothes, which is the court dress.
What is this court uniform for? It is worn when entering the palace to meet the Emperor, such as going to court, or being summoned by the Emperor.
Generally speaking, not everyone can wear this court dress.
To put it even more exaggeratedly, even if you are the director of the Forging Bureau, if you are not promoted again or do something very important, you will never wear court clothes in this life.
To put it simply, the Human Emperor is invisible.
The court uniforms worn by the vast majority of officials are basically left at home to gather dust, never to be worn once in their lifetime.
And if this leader can wear court clothes, what is his status?
Those who came from the Ministry of Industry are awesome!
Although the cuffs of this boss are also white, there are three more gold edges on them. Although they are all white cuffs, they are different.
This is a super leader belonging to the Ministry of Industry.
The Ministry of Industry is one of the six ministries of the imperial court, and the Forging Bureau is under the management of the Ministry of Industry.
At this time, everyone was looking at Director Xu in front.
Director Xu, who was now a little excited, started shaking the corn thresher after others poured corn into it.
Soon, everyone in the conference hall became a little uneasy when they saw the scene in front of them.
OK! !
What a good thing! !
Everyone here is a leader, the lowest is a deputy factory director. Do you understand this value?
The leader of the Ministry of Industry, who was wearing court uniform, was a little surprised and clapped repeatedly when he saw what was happening in front of him.
As soon as the leader clapped, everyone in the conference room quickly followed suit.
After the applause stopped, Director Xu looked at the leader of the Ministry of Industry excitedly and said:
"This is just a small one. According to the craftsman, he also has a large threshing machine driven by spiritual cores. It is more than ten times more efficient than this one. One machine can satisfy a large granary in various states and provinces!"
"And I can go to his house tomorrow to get the drawings of the spiritual core-driven threshing machine!
As long as our Ministry of Industry orders it, the Forging Bureau can start construction immediately! "
After hearing what Director Xu said, the leader of the Ministry of Industry nodded repeatedly and exclaimed:
"Okay, okay!!"
"I didn't expect that our forging bureau would have such a capable person!"
Having said that, the leader of the Ministry of Works thought of something and immediately said:
"Tomorrow when you get the drawings, go to the Agricultural Bureau of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development immediately. This thing belongs to agriculture, so just ask someone from the Agricultural Bureau to take a look.
After this thing is built, the Agricultural Bureau must first purchase a large number of them. By the way, it will also show the money to the grandchildren of the Ministry of Household Affairs. We are the ones who do practical things!
It saves us that every time we take a note to the Ministry of Household Affairs to approve the budget, we have to look at the faces of the money-loving people in the Ministry of Household! "
Many leaders present nodded with deep feeling.
After Director Xu was stunned for a moment, he felt a little confused:
"I'm afraid I won't be able to do it tomorrow. I have to go to this craftsman's house for a meal."
Um?
The leader of the Ministry of Works looked at Director Xu strangely, this...can't do it, right?
The imperial court had strictly ordered Wu Shen not to accept invitations, especially for a big leader like this, who was very strict.
Director Xu immediately said quickly:
"Leader, you don't know the actual situation of this craftsman. This craftsman is really a super talent. He is only 21 years old this year.
His parents were gone, and he had no relatives at home. In order to serve the country and the court, he frugally bought all kinds of craftsman's books and read them, but he got sick from hunger.
The craftsman got married a few days ago and took a daughter-in-law. Such a talented person didn't even have the money to host a banquet.
After receiving the reward of the Snow Dragon Yaori Armor last time, I had the money to host a banquet for my daughter-in-law. "
When the leader of the Ministry of Industry heard this, he was a little confused and said:
"The Snow Dragon Sun Armor...is that him too??!"
Director Xu nodded and said:
"Yes, it is really not easy for this child. He is also motivated and has a pure heart towards the country and the court.
You said it was hard to hold a banquet, and there were no adults at home. It was pitiful, so I thought that I could represent the country and serve as a witness to others. "
When the leader of the Ministry of Industry heard this, he nodded slightly and said:
"You did the right thing. I will report it to the superiors later. Such people cannot be treated normally.
As for the reward for this child, our Ministry of Industry is really not rich, so the reward money will come as normal. After the thresher is mass-produced and sold, it won't be too late for us to make up some bonus for this child. "
Many leaders of the Forging Bureau also nodded in agreement.
Then the leader of the Ministry of Industry said again:
"The money matter can be slowed down, but other matters need to be followed up immediately, and we should first appoint him as a reserve cadre.
After that, if any workshop director in the Forging Bureau quits, or if someone quits, let him take over.
With such a talented person, we cannot let others down. "
Sitting next to the leader of the Ministry of Industry, the director of the Forging Bureau nodded immediately and said:
"I'll have it done in a moment."
After the leader of the Ministry of Industry nodded, he finally stood up and said:
"Okay, that's all for today. Xiao Xu, you go to have a dinner tomorrow, and we'll find someone from the Agriculture Bureau the day after tomorrow.
I will go to the top to apply for funds to open the factory for you, and I will try to implement it after the Chinese New Year.
Adding two more factories like this can also add more jobs to the Imperial City, which now has more and more people. "
…………
At night, Lu Yuan was wearing a coat, leaning on the table, drawing drawings of a large threshing machine driven by spiritual cores.
Su Liyan insisted on putting this coat on Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan had a perfect body and was not cold at all, but Su Liyan felt that Lu Yuan was cold and had no choice but to put it on.
After Lu Yuan looked down for a while, he raised his head slightly and looked at Su Liyan, who was lying on the table with her delicate chin resting on his jade hand, staring at him and said with a smile:
"You go to bed first, I have to wait for a while."
The blueprint of this thing is not the blueprint of the Snow Dragon Yaori Armor. It is very troublesome and will not be finished in a while.
Su Liyan quickly shook her head and said softly:
"No~ I'll sleep with my brother~"
Lu Yuan was startled, and then said seriously:
"Not tonight. I finished this very late. We have to hold a banquet tomorrow. I have to get up early. I can't mess around tonight."
After listening to Lu Yuan's words, Su Liyan blushed, and her face was full of shyness. Under the illumination of this spiritual lamp, she looked even more mature, charming, and extremely beautiful.
Su Liyan immediately said with a coquettish expression:
"I won't talk about that~ I just want to hold my brother to sleep~
My brother is not in bed, and I feel it’s so cold in bed that I can’t sleep~”
Seeing his wife's cute appearance, Lu Yuan couldn't help laughing, and then nodded seriously:
"Okay, let me hurry up."
Late at night, after Lu Yuan had finished everything, he saw his wife lying on the table and falling asleep at some point.
After Lu Yuan put the drawings away, he carefully carried Su Liyan and walked toward the bed.
…
The next morning, when Lu Yuan opened his eyes, he saw that his wife had posted happy words on the wall at home.
It was also lively outside, and the people in the courtyard were busy at work.
Lu Yuan blinked.
Well~ Let’s have a big banquet~
