Chapter 228 It’s fun to amuse children, Zhu Di splits the money again!
Ming Dynasty: Hanging out in Beiping as the magistrate of the county. Chapter 228 of the main text is to amuse the children. Zhu Di pays for it again! Latest website: "Exactly!"
Guo An nodded slightly and continued to draw enthusiastically.
He drew more than ten drawings, and then Guo An wrote for another half an hour, writing all the requirements clearly.
On the side, Xu Yun and Zhuang Guang were stunned.
The dignified Chief of the Palace of Prince Yan actually painted children's toys in their workshop!
"Huh..."
After finishing the painting, Guo An stretched out his waist vigorously and looked down at the picture he had drawn, although it was not very beautiful.
However, the advantage is that it is clear and can be understood at a glance.
Then, he asked Xu Yun and Zhuang Guang who were standing aside: "How many days will it take you two to make these objects?"
As for whether it can be produced?
No need to ask Guo An.
He also knows the carpenters at the Gongzheng Institute very well. As long as they have the materials, tools, and a drawing, the carpenters can make anything.
Xu Yun thought for a moment and said: "Guo Changshi, with so many items, it will take at least three days!"
"Why did it take so long?"
Guo An frowned slightly.
Then, without waiting for Xu Yun's reply, he took out a wad of banknotes.
"I'll give you money, double the money, and you'll find more craftsmen for us to speed up the time!"
Xu Yun and Zhuang Guang's eyes widened immediately, and they quickly refused with fearful expressions.
"Guo Changshi killed Xiaguan. How can he still collect money when he and others are making things for several young highnesses?"
Guo An was stunned for a moment and then said: "You two have misunderstood. These items are all toys made by me for my own children. They have nothing to do with the few young highnesses in the palace. You don't need to worry so much!"
Now, Xu Yun and Zhuang Guang were even more worried.
The craftsmen of the Gongzheng Institute of the Yan Palace actually made toys for the heirs of a royal family? Although it was Guo Changshi who was most trusted by His Highness, if His Highness investigated them, it would be enough to convict them!
Guo An shook the treasure banknote in his hand and said: "Nowadays, the craftsmen of the Gongzheng Institute do not have much work. If you take on private work and make some money, Your Highness will never blame you.
Even if His Highness is blamed, I can bear it!"
"I obey my orders!"
Xu Yun slightly cupped his hands.
"As a master craftsman, you should be flexible. Otherwise, how can you improve your craftsmanship and create better objects for our Prince Yan's Palace?"
Guo An nodded with satisfaction and directly slapped the treasure banknotes in his hand on the drawing, "This is twenty taels of treasure banknotes, enough for all the materials.
I only give you a day to wait, and then the Japanese officials will send someone to pick it up!"
Xu Yun and Zhuang Guang felt bitter in their hearts. They were not great craftsmen, but officials.
However, in the face of Guo Changshi, who always speaks his mind, he can only respond repeatedly.
……
After Guo An came out of the work center, he went straight home.
He was finally able to rest at home for a while, but he didn't want to be caught by the old man Zhu Fu, and then taken to the Changshi Division to look at those account books!
It’s just that it’s near the palace gate.
The Changshi Division had the most scribes. Guo An had just dodged a few scribes, but before he had taken a few steps, several young scribes appeared in front of him.
When they saw Guo An, the young scribes were delighted and hurriedly came forward to pay their respects respectfully.
"But in front of Guo Changshi, the villain is a student of the academy. He just entered the Changshi Department as a scribe a few days ago..."
"Hello everyone!"
Before the clerk could finish speaking, Guo An replied, and then walked out with an anxious look on his face.
Behind him, the young scribes looked at each other.
Afterwards, he calmed down and looked emotional.
"Guo Changshi is indeed worthy of being a confidant of His Highness King Yan. He has been on the expedition with His Highness for more than half a year, and only a few days after returning, he came to the palace to be on duty, and in such a hurry!"
"Guo Changshi is so conscientious, we should learn from him!"
"It's extremely, it's extremely..."
In Changshi's office, Zhu Fu, who was wearing a pair of reading glasses and lying in front of the desk, looking through the account books seriously, suddenly raised his head.
"You were just talking about, Guo Changshi is here on duty?"
A scribe quickly said: "Going back to Zhu Changshi, many people have seen Guo Changshi."
Zhu Fu hurriedly asked: "Where is Guo Changshi at this time?"
The scribe replied again: "Back to Zhu Changshi, Guo Changshi hurried out of the palace again, presumably busy with other matters!"
"Very good, Guo Ningyi is finally back. I finally don't have to keep an eye on these account books every day!"
Zhu Fu's face was full of joy.
"Please pay more attention. If you find Guo Changshi, please inform me immediately!"
"Yes, Zhu Changshi!"
All the scribes responded quickly.
Immediately, all the scribes in the Chang Shi Division would look up and search around from time to time as soon as they left the door of the Chang Shi Division.
However, they did not know that Guo Changshi, whom they had longed for, was sitting in the study of the Guo family, writing and drawing.
After finishing the painting, he walked out of the study, found his one-and-a-half-year-old baby, and made him cry.
Therefore, the scribes of the Chief Secretary of the Palace of Prince Yan stretched their necks and searched for two days, but they did not find Guo Changshi.
So, Zhu Fu, who was a little anxious, found Zhu Di and heard a piece of news that made his eyes red.
Guo An is still sleeping.
But when he showed up at the palace that day, he just went to ask Gongzhengsuo to make some toys for his two children!
"Lazy people!"
Zhu Fu went back angrily, then with a grimace on his face, he continued to look through the account books that made him dizzy.
And now.
In the Guo Mansion, Guo An directed a group of Guo Erniu and a group of servants to move out all the objects in a room and clean it.
