Martial Sage

During the one-month national funeral, no one is allowed to walk around in the streets.

The scene from a year ago in Chang'an City reappeared. The streets were clear and coldly, every family was closed, and a foot of white cloth could be seen everywhere in front of the mansion.

The entire Datang, the entire imperial city, silently mourned for the once founding emperor.

Tang Hao was granted a special permission to take care of the pregnant Princess Changle at home, so he didn't need to kneel on the cold and hard square in this increasingly cold weather.

The beautiful person cried and turned into tears when he heard the news of Li Yuan's death. Tang Hao went to great lengths to persuade him in every possible way.

Thinking of the fetus in her abdomen, Princess Changle slowly closed her voice and forbeared.

Tang Hao, who had been boring in the mansion because of the feelings of his mother and daughter, had never been idle.

Changing patterns every day, cooking and eating, Li Wanqing had a good taste and enjoyed the feast of food for a month.

The four masterpieces were also moved out by Tang Hao and turned into a storyteller, right now to tell stories to the two ladies.

Days pass, and the sun rises day by day. The only difference is that the temperature shining on the body is far less hot than before, and there is even no sense of warmth.

Wu Tong finally returned with a full load at the end of the national funeral and returned to the mansion.

When the cotton arrives, the production of cotton-padded clothes will begin again. In the course of this month, Tang Hao's only exercise method is to make briquettes.

No more, no more, just a thousand or so, Tang Mansion family, winter is no need to worry.

On October 10, the one-month national funeral officially ended.

The cold wind sobbed and the weather dropped sharply. It seemed that even the north wind was mourning for Emperor Kaitang.

The tightly bound people slowly took to the streets and began to buy clothes and supplies that could keep out the cold.

Tang Hao was no exception. A sign was erected at the gate of the mansion, requiring a large number of blacksmiths and dressmakers to be recruited.

These recruiting methods are quite similar to those in small coastal factories in later generations, but in this era, they rarely appear.

Wu Tong looked at the triangular wooden frame erected at the gate of the mansion, and suddenly felt a little funny.

"Master Hou, if you want to say that this beckoning craftsman, the younger one can find a few for you, why hang up the wooden sign here?"

Tang Hao patted Wu Tong on the shoulder, a smile on his face.

"Recruitment is second, the important thing is to let others know about our mansion and start making these two things."

"Think about it, our cotton-padded coal stove, but a novel item, I'm afraid it will not go well when it first sells."

"This time attracting the attention of the people of the imperial city will definitely arouse curiosity, and when we put it out, it will not be abrupt."

Qiaoyige and Nuandongfang are a new pilot project opened by Tang Hao in Datang.

The Guifang is to raise funds for Datang’s shipbuilding, and the restaurant is to pay dividends for the borrowed money.

When the people gathered heard that Tang Hao was about to make clothes and stoves, they immediately became interested.

Standing in the new workshop, surrounded by the picture that Tang Hao posted, there was a lot of noise and discussion.

"Master Hou, our Datang clothes are as thin as cicada wings and as slippery as fat, how can we wrap this white stack?"

"Yes! This clothing is very peculiar. It looks unusual. Is this clothing worn inside or outside?"

Everyone also noticed the difference in the clothes made by Tang Hao at the first time. While they were puzzled, they were also full of curiosity.

The newly recruited blacksmith is even more surprised, and there is even a talk about making iron sheets.

These common utensils are thicker to be more durable and durable. Doesn't this iron sheet not withstand being beaten, it will be pierced and damaged easily?

What's more peculiar is that this object, which looks like an enlarged hand stove, is used for burning red charcoal?

Tang Hao didn't worry, he smiled and stood at the top of the workshop, waiting for these craftsmen to study and discuss with his back.

When the doubts in everyone's hearts came to an agreement, Tang Hao cupped hands.

"Everyone, the reason why you are summoned here is because this kind of project is huge."

"The finished product after manufacture will definitely be sold in the Imperial City, and even in the entire Datang."

"From now on, you will work here to make a living."

The words were not over yet, the craftsmen underneath suddenly exploded the pot.

People are divided into six or nine classes, and there is no exception in the Tang Dynasty.

The craftsman household system was extremely terrifying in the Datang. There was no farming and no business. This was a problem left over from the original land policy.

This is also the reason why these people, when they first saw the wooden sign for recruiting workers, rushed to sign up first.

Quite obediently speaking, from now on, they will be considered to have fixed labor services and can get a stable income.

No more wandering on the streets, guarding your small shop a few feet away, waiting eagerly for merchants to come and go.

Farmers rely on the sky for food, but there are always a few acres of land there, and there is hope. These craftsmen can only wait in small shops.

This kind of daily prayer life has long made them tired and helpless.

In their eyes, Tang Hao's move was undoubtedly doing good, and Tang Hao's heart was brighter and warmer than the burning charcoal fire.

"Master Hou really rescued me from waiting for the fire and water, great benefactor!"

I don't know who it is, I screamed with gratitude.

All the craftsmen in the new workshop bowed and saluted.

"Master Hou is generous and kind, and I can't be thankful enough."
