It's dark now, if the sound didn't sound very familiar, Yu Jin would probably be frightened.
When I looked up, I saw Qing'er sitting on the wall, leisurely raising her two beautiful legs, looking at her with contempt.
Yu Jin's heart skipped a beat. When did this girl come?
I didn't notice it at all, not only myself, but also Deng Yong and Zhang Ben. Is this careless or is this girl's force too high?
He was startled, but Yu Jin quickly calmed down, frowned, and said unhappily: "Miss Qing'er, you're too busy with your care."
If it was a business matter, I had nothing to say. Now it was my own private matter and had no impact on the overall situation. However, she secretly eavesdropped on it, which made people feel uncomfortable.
"It's not that I am meddling in other people's business, but Mr. Yu, your safety is too important. You are the ones you have to be protected by the adults. The little girl is also responsible. Please forgive me."
After saying that, Qing'er's eyes turned around and said with a smile: "Everyone says there is no airtight wall in this world. Mr. Yu, aren't you afraid that this matter will spread?"
This is a disguised threat.
Yu Jin said indifferently: "It is a harmless joke. Miss Qing'er wants to write a report, just write it truthfully."
If she surrendered at this moment, Qing'er would definitely speak out and make all kinds of unreasonable demands, such as taking the opportunity to ask for various benefits, she could not spoil her, anyway, it was not a big deal.
Seeing Yu Jin's handsome back, Qing'er bit her red lips lightly, and her eyes seemed to be inconsistent. Soon, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she supported her hands and jumped down gracefully like a butterfly, and soon followed Yu Jin obediently.
Yu Jin was not afraid of this being exposed, she was also afraid that Yu Jin would exclude herself when building a mirror workshop.
After the social engagement, I accepted my younger brother and reached a tacit understanding with Wu Xuan. Yu Jin began to concentrate on his own work, that is, to continue to make mirrors. After returning to Beijing, he could use physical objects to pull Zhu Xizhong and King Yu into his camp.
By the way, you can't miss Qing'er's part.
Yu Jin was busy for another three days before he made a batch of mirrors, both big and small, and improved the tools for cutting glass.
It took half a day more to create sample mirrors and improvement tools than expected. Yu Jin's three days mainly took one and a half days to make a small doll with glass.
He promised Wu Xuan to give her another good gift. Last time he only focused on decorating the house and had no time to do it. When he wanted to do it, Zhu Xizhong rushed to the capital with an urgent order. He once again made a mistake. It was rare that he could take time and rest assured now. Anyway, the materials were ready-made, so he made a small doll for Wu Xuan.
Made of glass, it is definitely the first glass doll in the Ming Dynasty.
When the last process was completed, Yu Jin gently put down the silk cloth that he used to polish in his hand, looked at the crystal clear little doll, glittering in the sun, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
In the Ming Dynasty, there was no mechanical help, and this was all handmade. In order to achieve the ideal effect, there were three steps to polish: first, carve it into a rough shape with sharp blades, then slowly polish it with talc, and all edges and burrs were disposed of, and finally, polish it into a mirror with good fur and silk cloth.
The first day and a half was easily completed, while the next day and a half Yu Jin grinded his hands until they were bubbled.
The difference between a craftsman and a master is that a craftsman will complete the work he has in hand as soon as possible, while a master will improve the work he has in hand as much as possible.
It's just a word difference, but the meaning can be said to be completely different.
He told Yu Jin that either don’t do it, or do it well if you want to do it.
In a closed space, you can do it for three days and sit for more than six hours a day. I guess many people can't stand it and can't stand this loneliness, but Yu Jin feels extremely fulfilled, especially when he sees a beautiful work of art born in his own hands, the wonderful feeling is hard to describe.
Happiness does not have to be high and hug you from the left and right. For some people, doing what they like is happiness.
After finishing everything, Yu Jin broke up the scene. In order to prevent him from peeping, he even poured waste into the river and finally left.
Anyway, I won't use it here anymore.
This time, Yu Jin was not stingy. When he learned that Wen Sheng was working in Xinchang, he personally sent him over without saying a word. His parents, County Magistrate Xu, did not leave and left himself. However, many industries remained in Yuyao and needed the protection of the two.
Besides, the two are also considered Yu Jin's benefactors.
Once the processing workshop is built and the mirror is mass-produced, the price will drop, and it will be less precious. It is better to be a favor now.
It will never be a bad thing to save more favors and win over relationships.
Wen Sheng, the eldest of the Jinyiwei households, and the magistrate of Xu County of Yuyao, received a generous gift from Yu Jin. Cui Sanniang, Deng Yong and Zhang Ben from Taisheng Zhenbao Shop also had portions, which were quite Taigong pork, and the taste of portions that were portions.
Anyway, these are low-cost and high-value, so it is decent to send them out. After Wen Sheng and County Magistrate Xu got it, they held the mirror that cost only a few dozen cents. The hands were trembling, and a flattering expression appeared on their faces. After Cui Sanniang received the mirror, she frequently glared at Yu Jin.
It is indeed good to monopolize the industry, so profits are simply huge profits. In four words, it is to describe it: go and grab it.
When Yu Jin left Taisheng Zhenbao Pavilion, he intentionally or unintentionally said that he had made some moves in the capital recently, and then left directly. With Cui Sanniang's IQ, it is definitely possible to guess.
The people around me gave me a visit, but even my mother didn't leave, with the exception of the Wu Family Hospital.
Yu Jin was not stingy, but set it as the last stop for gifts.
It was also a farewell. Six days have passed since I knew it. With the time to come back, the month's vacation has passed. It is necessary to reserve enough time to rush to the capital. In addition, we have to take time to prepare for the establishment of the processing workshop.
This time I came here to give gifts and say goodbye.
There was only a thin layer of window paper between the two, and there was no oath between them, but they could feel the love between each other.
From the name, we can see that in the past, Doctor Wu called Yu Jin the son of Mr. Yu, but behind him, he called him prodigal son, but now he called him nephew. Yu Jin used to be called Doctor Wu and Mrs. Wu, and now he called him uncle and aunt, and both of them did not object.
That relationship brought more than a little closer.
"Young Master Yu is here, come, sit down, and let's go out." Mrs. Wu immediately smiled and said hello.
The county magistrate visited him in person, so it must be not simple. He has a good relationship with Censor Zhao and is a person around King Yu. His future is unlimited. Besides, Yu Jin has been inseparable from the scandal recently, and Mrs. Wu's attitude towards him has become more and more enthusiastic.
It is said that many wealthy families in the city are interested in becoming relatives with the Yu family. Those who are anxious ask matchmakers to come to ask about Yu Lin's opinions. The prodigal son who is disliked by everyone on that day suddenly becomes a popular commodity that everyone loves, and Mrs. Wu also changed her attitude.
"Auntie Xie." Yu Jin sat down and asked casually: "Why is there only aunt?"
"Oh, Xuan'er changed the medicine for that old man. Dalin and the others went to the countryside to sell summer tea. Anyway, no patients came to the door at this time." After saying that, he said embarrassedly: "Young Master Yu wait a moment, I'll make a pot of tea for you."
Yu Jin quickly said, "No, no, aunt, I will sit for a while and leave. There is no need to make tea."
"So urgent? Where to go?"
"Well, the holidays are limited. I will set out early tomorrow morning and I will have to go home to clean up later."
After thinking about it, Yu Jin waved, took a gift box from Xiaoman and gently placed it in front of Mrs. Wu: "This is a little bit of my nephew's meaning, I hope my aunt will not dislike it."
Mrs. Wu opened it casually and said, "Young Master Yu is so polite. They are all neighbors. Why do you pay for this money? Or take it...ah, Taisheng Jing?"
I wanted to ask Yu Jin to take it back, but when I opened it, it was an exquisite Taisheng mirror. Mrs. Wu was familiar with this kind of mirror, because Wu Xuan had one side. After knowing the "secret" of becoming beautiful, Mrs. Wu borrowed it from her daughter a lot. Now she saw another side and was shocked.
This Taisheng mirror, which is inlaid with wooden frames, is not as exquisite as the one in my daughter's hands, but it is much larger in area.
It was so beautiful that I wanted to let Yu Jin go back halfway, and I swallowed it back.
Mrs. Wu had long wanted to have her own Taisheng mirror. Now that she saw this Taisheng mirror, she couldn't even take her eyes away while talking.
This is the effect that is needed.
The cost of tens of cents can be achieved by reaching the effect of hundreds or even thousands of taels. This is called ability.
Yu Jin said generously: "Auntie takes great care of my mother. This is just a small thought. If my aunt doesn't accept it, it will be disgusting. If so, my nephew will turn around and leave."
"Don't dislike it, don't dislike it." This gift was obviously delivered to the point. Mrs. Wu smiled and said, "Young Master Yu is so polite."
