I went ashore by weaving straw shoes and became a master craftsman

Chapter 174 A gift to send home

Two days later.

Yinzheng four quarters, five watch.

It took only a moment for the craftsman in the Fifth Courtyard of the Bamboo District to leave the courtyard after waking up.The whole courtyard was silent, leaving Wang Ge alone.

No. 1 in the county-level competition will not only be rewarded with three consecutive copper coins, but also be exempted from the daily tasks of the emergency training camp for ten days.In addition, because she and Shen Datou won the team competition, each of them was rewarded with [-] cash.

It's nice to have a tangible reward like this.

After Wang Ge came back from the Fulu Craftsmanship, he had been sleeping under the grass thatch in the courtyard, and it was also at the fifth watch.The craftsmen left, and she carried the bedding back to the house.Between the interlacing, there are those who envy her, and even more who are jealous.

When she came back to the production area, she took tools and materials.

With a "click", the bamboo knife split the bamboo, breaking the silence of the courtyard.

It was still dark at this time.

Instead of going out to grab the task, Wang Ge's busyness was advanced.She wants to grab the device and mail it to Weiting together with three pens of money within ten days.Courtesy is light and affection is heavy, how can we just post money and not give gifts to family members.

Since the time of Emperor Cheng, the Great Jin Dynasty has vigorously restored the "pavilion" system.Based on the various original responsibilities of the "Ting", we will develop post offices.For example, market kiosks, street kiosks, and wild kiosks can post money and postage for ordinary people, and postage is paid according to the value and weight of the property, which is similar to the post offices of later generations.

The capital pavilion and the township pavilion are not acceptable. One of them is the main pavilion of the county, and the other is the main pavilion of the township. They still only transmit the government orders.

Thorn, stab, stab...

After splitting the bamboo strips, scrape the green and separate the yellow strips.

Wedge the knife evenly on the tool stool, and pass the green strip through the sword gate.After the green strips have the same width, pass them with a scraper, front and back twice, and place them on a self-made bamboo stand beside them.

The breeze blows and falls the thin bamboo strips on the bamboo frame, and the surface of the bamboo strips is illuminated by the rising sun, showing a faint luster.

Wang Ge went to get breakfast, went back quickly, and met Meng Nvli on the way.

She is very grateful to Meng Nvli.

Urgent training sells tools and materials, and the purchase price of craftsmen is half that of quasi-craftsmen.What's more, craftsmen and officials can rent tools, but quasi-craftsmen cannot.Meng's female official helped Wang Ge buy materials and rent tools in her own name, saving a lot of money.

Wang Ge spent all the [-] yuan that the team won.Stack the materials under the base of the wall behind the crafting area.I would rather buy too much and not use it, and I can't ask the female official Meng for help again and again.

The other person, Wang Ge is also very grateful to, is Lady Meng who lives in the same house.

As soon as she brought back these bamboo and wood materials, Mrs. Meng first publicized for her that the materials were bought with her own money.Lady Meng's words are better than Wang Ge's own explanation.

Moreover, Mrs. Meng was afraid that Wang Ge was too young to know the seriousness, so she reminded her to sleep in the production area at night to avoid burning candles.

At the beginning of Si, a craftsman came back to the courtyard with an ugly expression.

The three of them came back one after another.

A voice of complaint came from the house: "Are you saying that you are angry? There is no fixed task in the grass material area, and you didn't say it earlier. We have been waiting outside the courtyard for so long, and those craftsmen can't see it? Why didn't you tell us? One sound, we can change places to wait!"

Wang Ge stopped weaving the inkstone screen for a while, and then continued.There are only twelve craftsmen left in the Fifth Academy of the Bamboo District. They are eliminated so quickly, and the fixed tasks are decreasing day by day. The pressure on the prospective craftsmen is increasing.

The first carpenter to go back to the yard came out of the house, came to Wang Ge annoyed, and asked, "Can you lend me a few pieces of wood? Small ones, just a few pieces. I... well, I haven't finished my task today. I will pay you back when I get the reward.”

"You can borrow if you have a certificate."

The man laughed: "Establish a proof? Just a few small pieces of wood and still need to establish a proof?"

"Just a few small pieces of wood, don't you have to borrow from me?"

The craftsman was speechless, she turned her head and walked away, then turned around and explained angrily: "Wang Ge, I have to make my words clear, it's not that I don't want to establish evidence, it's that I don't want to beg people like you again!"

That would be great.Wang Ge continued to weave inkstone screens.

The inkstone screen is a small screen placed on the desk to keep out wind and dust.Putting the inkstone screen in a windy position can delay the drying of the ink; placing it in front of the inkstone can block the sunlight, otherwise the ink will reflect the light and easily hurt Adi's eyes.

In the previous life, Wang Nanxing wove the inkstone screen with bamboo and carved it with wood. She only knew that the inkstone screen was a utensil in the Song Dynasty, but she really didn't know who invented it.

Last time at the Ancient Tomb Mountain, she had seen "walking barriers" and "walking barriers", both of which belonged to "screens".Since then, she has already planned to make inkstone screens, so if there is no inkstone screen in the Jin Dynasty, I am sorry, she will be the first inventor again.

Yanping gave the tiger head, and the gifts to his second brother Apeng and Yaomei Aai also had to be thoughtful.

After eating at noon, Wang Ge started to carve wooden blocks.The ones for A Peng and A Ai are "wooden blocks for literacy".

First, carve the character "ox" on one side, incised and concave, and then buckle it over after the carving, and carve a lifelike cow in relief.

Apeng likes cows the most. Using the animal cow as a comparison, he knows how to read the word "cow" without being taught by others.As time goes by, the second brother can recognize the word "niu" without having to memorize it.

Wang Ge's carving speed of this small wood is very fast.The second wooden block is to carve "snake". Similarly, characters are carved in Yin and animals are carved in Yang.Afraid to scare the little ones, like snakes, tigers, and mice, she is very cute.

The ones given to Aai cannot be animals. Yaomei likes flowers and everything that looks good. Wang Ge carved a flower first. When Aai turned the wooden block upside down, he knew that the engraved word read "flower".Then carve trees, moons, fish... Finally, we must carve a cute little pig.

The aunt's gift is the best, and Sanguanqian is her favorite.Wang Ge then carved a comb with a magpie holding a branch out of peach wood.

Eldest Father, Grandfather, and Second Uncle have the same courtesy, each scratching their itch.The common people call it "claw stick", and the wealthy people call it "Ruyi".

Asu's gift is a two-volume brief policy engraved by Wang Ge, which contains some experience and experience in bamboo strips and weaving, as well as detailed methods for making square-toed shoes with kudzu vine and miscanthus.

After passing the quasi-craftsman examination, Wang Ge has always wanted to make a pair of head shoes every day. After making enough batches, she can hand them over to the government office or Mr. Huan Lang. Unfortunately, she still has no spare time.It's better to entrust this matter to Ah Shu and the little ladies of Weiting.

Only Ahe is left, oh, forget it, don’t bother with him, make him a whip, he often rides a horse, a good-looking whip, just looking at it is majestic.

After nine days and nights of busy work, she finally got all the family gifts ready, and entrusted Lady Meng to the Zhumu Pavilion.

July sixteenth.

The officials of Zhumu Pavilion drove to Wei Pavilion.

The Wang family was as happy as the Chinese New Year. Who would have thought that Age would have earned three pennies more than a month after he left home... a short of three hundred.

Three hundred is postage.

After the officials of Zhumu Pavilion left, Jia Yu hugged the purse tightly, clutched her chest, and said distressedly: "Who is the tiger treasure? Three hundred dollars, I can't think about it. I feel bad when I think about it. Three hundred dollars Ah, can't she wait until she is admitted to be a master craftsman? Just throw the three hundred coins on the road. Oops, I'll go back to the house to rest. Tsk! This is my comb!" She opened Erlang's hand.

Wang Erlang picked up the claw stick with the crane carved on it. Wang Yun looked at the gift list and said, "Second Uncle, that belongs to Eldest Father, and the one with the carved mountain goat belongs to Second Uncle. Father, this is yours."

Wang Dalang took the claw stick and fumbled, one end was shaped like a hand, no different from ordinary claw sticks.On the other end is carved...a girl with a hoe?
It's Wu!The lady carved by Hu Bao is her grandma, his wife, Ah Wu.

Everyone is polite.Wang He was sad, and when he was about to leave, he was stopped by his younger brother.Wang Yun waved a whip, and the whole body of the whip was engraved with auspicious clouds surrounded by three flying birds among the clouds. "Look, brother, this is a gift from sister. Look at it!"

Wang Peng ran over and said, "It's really good to see." Then he ran back to the straw mat. He and Aai had just poured out all the literate wooden blocks in the box, and were counting who had more and who had less.
