The most arrogant in history

Chapter 43 Break your legs!

Ye Kun walked over and raised the small bronze mirror:

"Second sister, I brought you a bronze mirror. You are so beautiful, so look in the mirror more often and dress up more."

A girl of fourteen or fifteen is at the age when she loves to show off.

"Brother-in-law, this mirror... is it for me?"

Second aunt's sister's eyes brightened.

The poor people of Dading Kingdom have no mirrors.

If you want to look in the mirror and fix your makeup, just get a basin of water.

Take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror. This old saying has been passed down from ancient times.

Even if the daughter of a wealthy family got married and had a palm-sized bronze mirror as a dowry, it would still arouse envy.

"Of course it's for you." Ye Kun nodded and smiled.

The second aunt came over excitedly and threw herself in front of Ye Kun.

Ye Kun thought that his second aunt wanted to reward him, but he didn't expect Youde to snatch the bronze mirror and run to his sister Yourong's bedroom:

"Sister, I have a bronze mirror!"

Ye Kun shook his head and smiled.

Your sister's bronze mirror is bigger than yours!

But at this moment, the sound of Yao Caidie crying was heard from the spinning workshop next door.

Ye Kun walked over and asked, "What's wrong, Caidie? Did anyone bully you?"

Yao Caidie wiped her tears and said pitifully, "Brother Dalang, Sister Yourong and the others all have bronze mirrors, but I don't have one..."

"Who said you didn't?"

Ye Kun smiled and took out a small bronze mirror from his arms: "Isn't this for you?"

"Brother Dalang, I have one too?"

Caidie burst into laughter and threw herself into Ye Kun's arms: "I thought... you didn't want me anymore."

As he spoke, tears began to flow again.

"Silly girl, I treat you as my sister, how could I not want you?"

Ye Kun touched Caidie's little head and said with a smile: "I also brought you some fruits and candied fruits. I'll give them to you later."

Ye Kun also took out two small bronze mirrors and gave them to Jia Xinghua and Liu Hongyu.

These two concubines of wealthy families were actually girls from poor families. They had no food to eat and were sold by their parents.

The third aunt's sister was very talented. She had already found the candied fruit and started eating it without hesitation, taking the bottle.

San'er was only in his teens, but he was aware of his identity as a beggar, so he was cautious and did not dare to come forward.

Ye Kun also took some fruit for San'er and said:

"San'er Ping'er, your sister Jiaojiao has opened a tavern again. I will take you back to the county town to play in a few days. Jiaojiao misses you too."

San'er lowered his head and said, "Uncle, I won't go. I'll stay at home and work."

Ye Kun nodded: "Okay, take good care of your sister. I will teach you to read in a while, together with Youcai."

Youcai shouted: "I have fruit to eat, I don't want to study."

Ye Kun smiled and said, "Only by studying can you reap good rewards."

Dai Xi and Jiang Yourong were very happy. They cleaned up the dinner and heated up some wine for Ye Kun.

Ye Kun accompanied his mother, took everyone to dinner, and asked about the situation at home.

Dai Xi said, "Everything is fine, except that the spinning wheel...is not as useful as before, and the yarn it spins is not as even and neat."

Ye Kun nodded, ate his meal, and went to look at the spinning wheel.

Jia Xinghua and Liu Hongyu began to operate, and Ye Kun watched from the side.

Soon, Ye Kun found out the problem.

The problem lies with the wooden shaft and the shaft sleeve. Due to severe wear and tear, the gap is large, which affects the accuracy of the spinning wheel and also affects the speed.

These are specially selected jujube trees, elm trees and locust trees, which are considered to be sturdy trees, but they cannot withstand continuous rotation.

"It's okay. Just use it like this for now. Go slower if you want."

Ye Kun nodded and said, "I will go to the county tomorrow to modify the wooden shaft and the shaft sleeve, add a copper sleeve, and there will be no problem."

Bronze accessories are actually not wear-resistant, but they are much better than wood.

This problem can be solved by adding a copper sleeve to the wooden shaft and embedding a copper sleeve in the shaft sleeve.

Pay attention to lubrication and maintenance, and there will be no problem using it for a year.

Dai Xi said, "Brother Dalang, these past two days, many women in the village have come to see our spinning wheel and want you to help make one."

"None of them." Ye Kun shook his head and smiled:

"Our spinning wheel will no longer be shown to outsiders. If the villagers come to ask about it, tell them that we will soon build a large workshop and let everyone come to work. Each person will get three copper coins a day, plus two meals."

Since he is not making any money yet, Ye Kun wants to protect his patent.

Jiang Yourong was very happy: "Should we open a big workshop? But the house is not big enough!"

Ye Kun nodded: "I will build a house. In the future, I will have a special spinning workshop, a sauce-making workshop, and my carpentry workshop..."

The place is too small to be developed, so we have to build houses.

Ye Kun is rich now, and it is time for him to realize his ambitions.

After dinner, Ye Kun came to Jiang Yourong's room and gently hugged her waist.

Jiang Yourong smiled and said, "Brother Dalang, I am not feeling well these two days. You can go find Daixi, or Sanniang and Hongyu."

Jia Xinghua, nicknamed Sanniang.

"Don't talk nonsense, my wife. Sanniang and Hongyu were brought back by me to work, not concubines."

Ye Kun and Jiang Yourong played around for a while and then went to Dai Xi's room.

Dai Xi was very happy and flattered him in every way.

After finishing, Dai Xi curled up in Ye Kun's arms and asked, "Brother Dalang, why didn't you bring Jiaojiao back?"

"Jiaojiao is still in the county town, running a pub with her father."

Ye Kun pinched Dai Xi's nose and said, "When I have time, I will take you and You Rong to the county town to play."

Early the next morning.

Ye Kun went to see the village chief Qin Chou and asked him to find someone to help him build a house.

Caidie's family has four residential plots with a total area of ​​over a thousand square meters, so they will build them first.

There are three houses between Caidie's house and Ye Kun's house.

Ye Kun found the villagers of these three families, found another place, built new houses for them, and replaced their residential land.

In this way, Ye Kun would have more than 20 connected residential plots, plus the yard, covering an area of ​​about 5,000 square meters, which was enough.

Qin Chou took Yan Liuhai Wang Da Kui and others to handle the matter immediately.

Ye Kun disassembled a spinning wheel, took all the parts with him, and prepared to go to the county town to find a carpenter to produce it in large quantities.

These parts were divided into three parts by Ye Kun.

Each carpenter only processes part of the parts, and then Ye Kun assembles them himself.

In this way, there is no need to worry about the spinning technology leaking out.

Just as they were about to leave for the county town, Jiang Yourong's sister-in-law Xue Sangu came crying.

Jiang Yourong was surprised. She caught Xue Sangu and asked, "Sister-in-law, is there any trouble at home?"

"Something happened, uncle!"

Aunt Xue hugged Ye Kun's legs and cried, "Uncle, Yourong's father and elder brother have been beaten. You have to lead the tiger-hunting team to support us!"

Ye Kun frowned: "Who hit you? Is the injury serious?"

"It was the Jiang Laowu brothers from the village who beat us up!" Xue Sangu cried and told the story in a halting manner.

This Jiang Laowu is also Jiang Yourong’s cousin, and a member of the Wufu family.

They are numerous and powerful, and are the overlords of Jianghetou Village. They also buy hemp silk and do hemp thread business.

Jiang Yourong's elder brother Jiang Youbao, commissioned by Ye Kun, purchased hemp silk near Jiang Hetou, which affected the Jiang Laowu brothers, slightly raised the price, and also increased the labor cost of the Jiang Laowu brothers in purchasing hemp silk.

Therefore, Jiang Laowu's brother beat up Jiang Youbao and his son and threatened him not to buy hemp silk anymore.

Aunt Xue wiped her tears and said, "Son-in-law, Jiang Laowu also told you not to come to our Jianghetou in the future, otherwise, I will break your legs!"
