Chapter 110

Having long considered the climate problem in the capital, when the immortal house was first built, Yang Chendong found craftsmen in the interlayer and installed a large number of furnace walls. As soon as the weather was cold, the hot gas naturally radiated as soon as the coal was burned.

The fairy was as warm as spring, and was soon noticed by the guests here. After asking, we knew that it was the reason for the furnace wall. In other words, this invisible way of heating is much better than putting a charcoal basin at home.

At present, many people ask whether they can pay the craftsmen of Shenxianju to make furnace walls in their homes. This was originally a profitable business prepared by Yang Chendong. At present, the service staff politely agreed. Only because of the limited number of craftsmen and the limited raw materials, not only the installation cost is very high, but also waiting in line.

However, in order to make the home warm as spring, many people still pay the money first and wait in line. Naturally, this matter soon went out and directly attracted Shi Pu, the Minister of industry, to visit Yangjiazhuang.

Potatoes have already been harvested and seeds have been distributed. Today, there are no royal guards and Fanzi from east hall outside Yangjiazhuang.

But even so, no one will make trouble here, because all kinds of signs show that the relationship between Yang Xima and father-in-law Wang Zhen is excellent. The two sides will meet from time to time and talk for an hour or two.

With the banner of Wang Zhen, who is stupid will take the initiative to find Yang Chendong's trouble.

Although Shi Pu is a minister of the Ministry of industry and a senior official of the imperial court, he still doesn't see enough in front of Wang Zhen. He doesn't intentionally offend others. Even the Shi Shangshu takes Wang Zhen's relationship and becomes his current position. Naturally, we should be very polite to Yang Chendong. We can't just send a message like other officials. He still decided to come in person.

Yang Chendong still attaches great importance to the arrival of Shi PU. I think my father Yang Rong once served as the Minister of the Ministry of work. Speaking of it, we are still very close.

As soon as Shi Pu arrived and entered the main hall of Yangjiazhuang, the heat came to his face, but he couldn't see a charcoal basin burning. Now he knew that the furnace wall must also be installed here. He couldn't help saying with envy, "my dear nephew, your place is very much like the land of immortals, and your way of life is really comfortable! Ha ha ha."

"Uncle Shi praised me. Thanks to the emperor's powerful governance, the world was peaceful and the people were able to live and work in peace and contentment." Yang Chendong hugged his fist in the direction of the capital and looked serious.

"Yes, the emperor is still diligent." Shi Pu hit a ha ha. Now the Ming Dynasty seems to be strong and prosperous, but that's just the capital left by the rule of Ren Xuan. They reuse eunuchs here in Zhuqi town. They, the ministers in the court and the representatives of Confucianism, are no longer as strong as before.

It's just that Shi Pu won't talk to Yang Chen Dongshen about these words. It's just a small generation of people. It can't be taught further.

Listening to Shi Pu's words, Yang Chendong smiled and said nothing, "Uncle Shi, you're not here to chat with the boy today?"

"Ha ha, of course not. I don't talk secretly in front of Ming people. This time I'm here about the furnace wall. You see, such a good thing should be shared by everyone." ha ha smiled with an expression of serving the country and the public.

"This..." when it comes to business, Yang Chendong becomes embarrassed.

"Why, my good nephew, what's the difficulty?" looking at Yang Chendong's hesitation, Shi Pu felt that things were not as simple as he thought.

"Yes." Yang Chendong finally nodded affirmatively, and then explained, "To be honest with Uncle Shi, it was just an idea when I made the furnace wall. Later, I invested a lot of manpower and material resources to understand the principle. For this matter, Duke Wang also invested a lot of money. Now there are his shares here. If I take them out for no reason, I'm afraid I agree, and some people won't agree."

He held up Wang Zhen's big sign and played with the momentum.

Looking at Shi Pu's appearance, it is clear that Yang Chendong wants to contribute the method of building furnace wall free of charge, which Yang Chendong can't accept

In the society at that time, there was no mention of property rights. Especially for craftsmen, no matter how hard they worked and how much they invested, once they made something good, they would be promoted free of charge, and the producer himself would have no benefit at all. It would be enough to say that the Shangguan would praise them. As for material, it's not. Because in everyone's opinion , what you make is to contribute, that is, why do you want benefits?

All good things should belong to the emperor, not a means of personal profit.

It seems that this can benefit more people, but in fact, it is extremely unfair to the creator. What he spent money, time and intelligence to make is lightly used by others, and his input and output are not in direct proportion. In the long run, who will spend that thing to create.

If you don't create, you can get money, but if you create, you can also get money. This unfair treatment gradually loses and flattens everyone's creativity.

Nowadays, Shi Pu's attitude towards this craft is like that of an ordinary craftsman. Even if you were born and live in Daming, the new things you make should also belong to Daming. Therefore, you can bring them all.

I am opposed to such a working mode in my heart, but I can't say it yet. Why are others like this, just you? So Yang Chendong had no choice but to carry out the big brand of Wang Zhen to press people.

A while ago, Yu Qian, the left chamberlain of the Ministry of war, and Shen you, the governor of Sichuan Province, suddenly evaporated from the world. What disappeared was no trace. There was really no one alive or dead.

As soon as this happened, everyone's doubts were directed at Wang Zhen. Because these two people had all kinds of estrangement with Duke Wang, and now they both disappeared. They did things so neatly. Does anyone else have such ability besides Wang Zhen?

Just because there is no evidence, everyone has no way to take Wang Zhen. They can only guard secretly in their hearts. Now, as soon as the big brand is taken out, even Shi Pu looks very ugly after listening to it.

Before he came, he thought that Yang Chendong might not be so happy to hand over his craft, but it doesn't matter. He just needs to be moved with emotion and reason. How can you say that you are also a five grade official of the imperial court? Should you have this awareness?

But now as soon as Wang Zhen's name came out, Shi Pu lost his temper in an instant.

"Well... So there's nothing to do but buy?" Shi Pu tried to ask when he knew that the means of forcible force was no longer available.

"Well, it's not supposed to work." Yang Chendong shook his head. But when Shi Pu looked depressed after hearing this, he said again, "just as Uncle Shi came to the door in person, face will still be sold to you. Well, your work department will give copper in exchange for me to send someone to make a fireplace?"

Nowadays, most fireplaces installed in the market are made of copper and iron, and some parts are very exquisite. Things such as turnbuckles are far from being made by the current work department. If you take photos of gourds and ladles by yourself, you may have various problems because of the poor quality of the products. Once a fire is formed, the problem will be big.

It is precisely because of the uniqueness of this technology that the installation cost is so high that ordinary ministers can't accept it. Many ministers went to Shi Pu and said that he was in charge of the work department. This matter was within his scope of management. How to install a furnace wall in everyone's home earlier should be his business.

After all, these ministers just don't want to spend so much money to enjoy the benefits of the furnace wall. Now Yang Chendong has given a compromise method. Technology cannot be taught, but it can be replaced with copper. In this way, with so much copper and iron in the warehouse of the Ministry of work, the problem of placing furnace walls by ministers can be solved, which can also be regarded as a solution to Shi Pu's urgent need.

"OK, OK, thank you, nephew." knowing that Yang Chendong was giving himself face, Shi Pu said repeatedly, as if he was afraid that others would repent.

Then the two discussed the quantity of copper and how much they could exchange for a furnace wall. During this period, Yang Chendong naturally wanted the lion to open his mouth. Although Shi Pu felt a little high about it, he thought that putting those things in the warehouse was of little use for the time being. It would be better to change the benefits first. If it was missing, he would collect them all over the country. So he agreed.

Shi Pu finally left Yangjiazhuang with a satisfied face. After he left, Qiao Yin came to pick up the tea and asked Yang Chendong with curiosity and incomprehension, "young master, why do you agree to exchange copper? In this way, don't we make a lot of money less?"

"Ha ha, we also know how to use our brains to think about problems." Yang Chendong said with a smile on his face.

"Young master? Yin'er always uses his head, but he is not as smart as you and can't see it." Qiao Yin said in a coquettish way. Since the relationship between the two has been materialized, she will show more and more the posture of a little woman in front of Yang Chendong. "By the way, young master, you haven't said why?"

"Why?" Yang Chendong looked into the distance and was silent for a long time. Then he replied: "Lian Yiner said that I frighten people with Wang Zhen's big brand. I think other people will think so? This is not the young master's original intention and want to see. This time, the copper for the furnace wall is arranged by the work department. First, it can serve more people, and second, it can also show them good, so that they don't have to hate the young master like they hate Wang Zhen. Of course, the most important thing is, Chixian city is short of copper. The industry there is developing too fast, especially the Arsenal and shipyard. As all kinds of advanced things are put into production, the gap will be bigger and bigger. "
