DAY 078 WHITE CRANE'S WIFE WORKS

【Please recommend votes】

The yamen needs to be repaired, and it also needs to be repaired over. The first amount of funds was paid by Baiminghe. According to the current purchasing power of the Ming Dynasty, one thousand taels of silver is not a small amount of money, and it is almost worth about 300,000 yuan in modern times.

It’s just a house repair, not a new one. One thousand taels can be said to be a huge sum of money.

After arranging the work of the repair of the yamen, Bai Minghe took four juren to the streets of Hepu.

The streets are still so dilapidated, but they finally become popular.

In the entire county, more than 300 families have moved back, and many of them have opened small grocery stores and snack shops. There are also more business selling old clothes and sewing tasks.

"There are four things to be done now. The first thing is to resettle immigrants from other counties in Guangdong. The Qian Prefect reported that many Zhumin residents in Hepu fled, and the villages around Zhuchi were empty, so at least 500 to 800 households would be moved. This official needs to have someone to take charge, don't rush to take on the errands, and all the things will be allocated after listening to them."

Baiminghe is now 18 years old and has just entered the officialdom.

Baiming He, who has been a man of two lives, is in his thirties. He doesn’t know much about the officialdom, but he knows about the business world and knows that he manages his subordinates.

Hearing Bai Minghe’s arrangement, the four juren nodded silently.

"The second thing is to measure all the land, redistribution and planning. For related notices, please ask Mr. Bai. If you have any new suggestions, you can come to me directly."

"The third thing is a big thing. The craftsmen in my official position are not enough. I go to each village to recruit workers. If the village is writing a guarantee letter, it must be reliable. There are three types of labor: one is labor, the other is skilled craftsman, and the last is skilled craftsman. Every skilled craftsman must register and make a book."

"The last thing is a big thing. I want to set up a medical center, which has three tasks. The first is to be responsible for the people of this county, the second is to do some disease prevention work, and the third..." When talking about the third, Bai Minghe turned around and looked at the four juren.

He was a little furious when the white-named heir looked at, and Lu Qiyuan quickly gave a gift: "Just please give me the order."

"The last item is that I pay 300 taels of silver a month to study methods that can treat leprosy. This matter must be kept confidential this year. Therefore, the doctors invited must be virtuous."

Four people knelt down after a moment of communication: "Thank you, Lord!"

"Go to divide the work. I will see your plan tomorrow morning."

"Sir, how dare you ask what a plan is?" Lu Qiyuan asked Bai Minghe on behalf of the other three.

Bai Minghe also realized that Daming did not have the plan. After thinking about it, he explained: "The plan is not to use ancient words, just like speaking, and use the simplest language to explain your plan and plan for doing something. You must let those who have just understood the words clearly understand the meaning. Therefore, easy-to-understand is also the key. Otherwise, if the person who does not have the literary talent of you, can this matter be done?"

"Remember the instructions of the Lord!"

Bai Minghe waved his hand and signaled that the four of them could leave. There is a saying in Bai Minghe who is naturally embarrassed to say, that is, the overly elegant words make him suffer from headaches. He is studying, but there is still a gap between the level of these juren.

"Come on!" Bai Minghe shouted softly.

Bai Hong immediately ran to Bai Minghe and waited for Bai Minghe's orders.

"Go and call you, and give you three days to bring two people with you. I will send a message to all the Zhumin villages in Hepu County, and I will ask them to send the people who are talking to the county, and I have something to talk to them."

"Yes, the little one will go right away!" Bai Hong didn't dare to ask any more.

Bai Minghe said that he would bring two people with him, so Bai Hong naturally did not dare to find soldiers in the army. There were more than a dozen people from the Bai family. It would be no problem to find two people who could fight and follow him with strength.

After working here for a few days, Bai Hong also knew the rules of doing business. He first ran back to the house and asked Qinghe to give him a document, and then stamped it with the seal of the magistrate of the white-named He. With this document, Bai Hong found three donkeys to carry goods in his own convoy for transportation. After leading his two followers, he found a local person to lead the way.

When Bai Minghe returned home, it was only around four o'clock in the afternoon.

Huaiyu was accompanying Zhu Jianshen to practice calligraphy, and Qinghe took her maid to help Bai Minghe check the accounts. Bai Minghe did not disturb them and went straight back to her house.

In the room, two maids watched Bai Minghe come back. One quickly went to fetch water to wash Bai Minghe's face, and the other went to get hot water to prepare tea for Bai Minghe.

However, Sun Yuanjun made Bai Minghe feel weird today. She was sitting on a chair and her movements were awkward.

Seeing this reaction, Bai Minghe calculated the days in his mind and knew what was going on.

"I suddenly thought that there were still some things, and I would come back in an hour."

"Don't work too hard, husband, don't be tired." Sun Yuanjun is a man who truly cares about him.

Bai Minghe smiled and nodded, and stepped out.

Back on the street, Bai Minghe, who had changed into casual clothes, found a grocery store to buy some things. Then he went back to the warehouse to find other things he needed.

After everything was ready, Bai Minghe returned to his study and was about to start working.

First, among a pile of sea brocade, I chose thinner and softer ones to cut into thin slices with a knife. These are natural sponges, which are harder than later artificial sponges, so I bought a lot of them, and then I chose them from them when I came back.

Natural sponge is an animal. The small one is only the size of a fist, and the largest one is hundreds of kilograms. Moreover, it is different in structure and shape. These things are sold in grocery stores, and in the villages by the sea, they are mostly used for bathing, washing dishes and other purposes.

One layer of sponge, another layer of cotton.

After making three or four layers in total, Baiminghe wrapped it with two layers of the top and bottom of the fine Songjiang cotton cloth.

Bai Minghe has been busy with his head down and is concentrating on his own work.

Qinghe, who came over with the account book to report some expenses to Bai Minghe today, was really shocked. She didn't expect that a man could even do needlework.

And not only can, this hand is really a coincidence. The pins are very thin and the edges are made of very technical retardation needles. There are three line needles in the middle of this weird cloth piece.

In short, Bai Ming Helu's move really scared Qinghe.

Baiminghe was an orphan in later generations. He would button himself when he was seven years old. After he moved out of the orphanage, he would repair his clothes when they were torn. Needlework is not difficult for Baiminghe. Some things have been learned but I will never forget them for several lifetimes. It’s just this time that I used needlework in the Ming Dynasty.

"It's finally done." Bai Minghe looked at his masterpiece and smiled with satisfaction.

When he looked up and saw Qinghe standing in front of him with a surprised look on his face, Bai Minghe didn't understand: "What's wrong? What's the big deal?"

"Young Master, you..., this needlework is really good. But if this matter is spread, it will probably be rumored."

"Nonsense!" Bai Minghe said, "Who did I offend a needlework job?"

"Young Master!" Qinghe's tone changed: "Young Master, do your own needlework. Let's say to the backyard that this is the dereliction of duty. Let's talk about us, maids and servants, who are beaten on the board. If someone with a bad mind passes the message, say that you like the girl and the red ones, this is a bad reputation for adults."

Bai Minghe thrust his face, thinking that it would be really a problem if this matter spread.

"Cough!" Bai Minghe cleared his throat: "It's still nonsense. I am making some useful things. This..." Bai Minghe quickly thought about the way to deal with it: "This is a useful thing! You can make a lot of money!"

Qinghe covered her mouth and laughed because she didn't believe it.

Bai Minghe's low pressure voice: "Today, I saw that Yuan Jun was unable to move, so I calculated the days. These days is when she has menstruation. This thing is very useful. It is divided into two types, one is tied to a small shirt, and the other is worn directly on her body. You are also a woman, so you should understand what I mean. This one is very absorbent!"

Qinghe understood immediately.

After his face turned red, a jealousy burned in his heart. Nothing wrong is jealousy. That man thought so carefully about his wife in such a trivial matter. Bai Minghe is not an ordinary person, but now he is the seventh rank of the court and the first county's parents.

This is sewn by yourself, friendship is priceless.

Qinghe put the account book on the table, quickly picked up the pile of sewn with the white crane, turned around and ran away.

Bai Minghe wanted to stop him, but Qinghe ran away in a daze.

"This girl!" Bai Minghe smiled and cleaned up the end of the table. Those rags and broken sponge pieces were always packed up.

In the backyard, Qinghe ran into Sun Yuanjun's house in a breeze.

"Madam, you can make Qinghe envious and jealous. That man is as careful and considerate as the young master." Qinghe put the stolen ones on the table and explained the matter clearly in a few words. Sun Yuanjun was naturally happy and forced himself to laugh.

They are all women, there is nothing to avoid.

With Qinghe's personal help, the one sewn by Bai Minghe was like a modern briefs, but the one on both sides was tied. The first menstrual scarf in the Ming Dynasty was tied. It seemed that it felt good. With a cushion that could absorb water, you don't have to worry about suddenly turning a red piece behind your skirt.

"Actually, my husband is a very careful person. You will definitely know it in the future." Sun Yuanjun's words were equivalent to identifying Qinghe's existence, which was also considered as promising an identity.
