"Heat expansion and contraction are nothing, these craftsmen are the real people who are capable."

Zhao Xu was not moved when faced with praise, but sang praises to these craftsmen.

The craftsmen probably had never seen such a noble man before, and they were a little excited to see him being kind.

"The tools here look old and have no new ideas."

Zhao Xu grabbed the hand of a craftsman, looked at it carefully, and sighed: "Look..."

This is a dark hand, with rough skin on it like tree bark. Many places have cracked, but no bleeding is seen inside. It turns out that the cracks are all old wounds and have already dried up.

The craftsman was embarrassed and wanted to take his hand back, but Zhao Xu shouted softly: "Don't move!"

Manager Li scolded from the side: "This is the king, do whatever you ask you to do?"

The craftsman was frightened and looked up at Zhao Xu, trembling all over.

"This hand..."

Zhao Xu rubbed the rough big hand for a moment, felt a soreness in his heart, and his eyes turned red.

"Is this the hand of the craftsmen?" He was a little angry. "Look at this hand, it is the weapon to defend the country, but what did they get?"

His eyes turned, and he looked at Manager Li and sneered, "Look at you... are so tender and tender, you are still having breakfast now. Isn't anyone taking care of such slack business?"

An official who followed him immediately stated: "If you turn around, you will punish this person."

"Punishment?"

Zhao Xu picked up a hammer, weighed the weight, and said to the craftsman: "You clamp the knife, I'll hit it."

"I dare not, king, villain dare not."

The craftsman was in a panic, and Zhao Xu frowned and said, "I can't help you anymore, or what?"

The craftsman couldn't do it, so he picked up a red-hot knife embryo and put it on the table.

clang!

Zhao Xu waved and beat.

His knocking was a bit scattered and his landing point was a bit erratic. When Shen An came, he would probably say that he was a newbie.

Dangdangdangdangdangdang!

The knock continued, and the craftsman gradually immersed in it, clamping the knife embryo with a clip, actively cooperating with Zhao Xu's knocking rhythm.

The two gradually cooperated tacitly.

The craftsmen next to them stopped their work and looked here silently.

This is the prince of the Song Dynasty and the future crown prince, but he actually works with us. Who would believe this if he says it?

Zhao Xu was beating hard, and his speed began to slow down.

If you don't do this kind of work often, it will be useless even if the strongman comes.

"Slow down." The craftsman whispered: "Stay calm, keep it up and then, don't change."

Any work has a rhythm. If your rhythm is messy, you will naturally consume more energy.

Those who know how to do things will take the initiative to find a rhythm that suits them. Those who don’t know how to do things will rely on brute force and eventually have to lose.

Zhao Xu felt very tired. Just when he wanted to give up, he felt strength gushing out of his arms.

This time he felt a little relaxed, and the rhythm of the knocking came out.

"It's like practicing a knife."

He suddenly realized something, and the subsequent tapping became much easier.

When the red light of the knife embryo gradually dissipated, the round of knocking ended.

Zhao Xu put down the hammer and then realized that he was covered in sweat.

“It’s very hard!”

He stretched out his right hand, and there were several bulges at the base of his finger.

This is bubbled.

Wang Chongnian said nervously: "Master, I want to ask the doctor to come and have a look."

Zhao Xu smiled and said, "I also had bubbles when I was practicing knife before, but now I seem to be negligent in practice. This is not a big deal. Then I will get my hair penetrated and it will be fine in two days."

The craftsman looked up and said in surprise: "Does the king even understand this?"

Everyone was a little surprised, thinking that if he was a big man with a precious gold and jade, was he actually using such a vulgar method to deal with the blistering of his palms?

Zhao Xu smiled and said, "Yes, this method is better. Keep your hair and take it out when it's almost dry, so that you won't seal it again."

expert!

This is what I heard, I am a person who has dealt with blisters many times.

The craftsmen immediately felt friendly.

He sighed, "I just knocked it and then blisters. You are pounding it every day, but it doesn't bubble... The palms are full of calluses... Unfortunately, no one cares. People come."

"King."

An official stepped forward.

Zhao Xu ordered: "Go to find Anxiang, just say that I said that the gloves I just made... all the gloves I made were brought over."

The official was confused and looked up and asked, "Master, gloves..."

"Just go!"

Zhao Xu frowned slightly, and he actually exuded some majesty.

The official hurried away.

“Why are there not enough staff?”

Zhao Xu asked suddenly.

Manager Li subconsciously said: "I refuse to come."

"Why don't you come?"

Zhao Xu's problem has not stopped.

"The villain...the villain doesn't know."

Manager Li started to sweat on his forehead.

"It's not that you don't know, but you're in the same vein!"

Manager Li shouted for justice, and Zhao Xu said coldly: "That crystal hoof trousers are expensive, but you can afford it. But the food box under the table is from the Li family in Panlou. The food from the Li family is not cheap. Where can you get the money for a manager? Hum?"

Manager Li didn't expect that Zhao Xu just looked outside the door and found something wrong with him. He said in horror: "The villain is greedy, so he gritted his teeth and ate it once."

"I'm greedy?" Zhao Xu turned to the craftsmen and said, "I know it's not easy for craftsmen, but as long as you can have a stable life, you won't avoid it like a snake or a scorpion... Tell me why this is?"

The craftsmen looked at each other, then exchanged glances, but no one spoke.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward.

Manager Li lowered his head, seemingly sad, but the corner of his mouth was silenced.

Wang Chongnian felt that these craftsmen were really ignorant. "The king asked for the right to deal with this matter in front of the emperor..."

"I have the full authority to deal with this matter." Zhao Xu nodded to Wang Chongnian in admiration. A subordinate who was good at taking advantage of the situation was very good. He pointed to Manager Li and said, "I promise here that no matter what today, he will be dealt with!"

A manager could actually eat the wine and food of Fanlou. Zhao Xu dared to kill him if he didn't have any corruption here!

Just when Manager Li's expression changed drastically, a craftsman said happily: "Can the king keep his word?"

Wang Chongnian said angrily: "The king asked for his orders to come here in the court today, and the prime ministers are here too."

In an instant, the craftsmen were in a frenzy.

"King, they deduct our money and food!"

"We have been deducting it for several years, and we have nowhere to complain!"

"They also took a job from outside and asked us to do it without paying a penny."

"Also, they took a lot of iron materials privately, and later they reported the loss..."

“…”

Zhao Xu looked at the sweaty manager Li and said lightly: "What is this? If you just wait for a private latte, then I will say there is a bottom line. Deduct the craftsmen's money and grain and take out the work outside to make them do it in vain. This is what humans do? Beast!"

Plop!

Manager Li knelt down instantly.

"The king, the villain confesses his guilt."

The gap between him and Zhao Xu was too big. Once it was broken through, there would be no room for resistance.

Zhao Xu asked with his hands behind his back: "Who else?"
