Chapter 233 Reporting work

However, before this, Zhang Ran had to go to Zhao Yu to report to him about the current situation of the workshop garden, which can be considered as an explanation of his recent work.

When Zhang Ran took a bus to the Shaofu Office, Zhao Yu, who was handling official duties at the Yanei desk, was very surprised. He raised his head and looked at Zhang Ran and said, "Zhang Zuocheng, why are you not watching your affairs in that workshop garden? Why are you doing here again? Could you encounter any trouble again and need your help?"

"Uh." Zhang Ran looked at Zhao Yu awkwardly, shook his head repeatedly and said, "Mr. Zhao, this time I am not here to ask you for help, but to tell you good news!"

As he said that, Zhang Ran couldn't help but straighten his waist and reported to Zhao Yuhui seriously: "After the efforts of thousands of craftsmen in our workshop garden day and night, the wool cleaning work has now been on the right track. Now our workshop can produce 200 stones of clean wool every day. According to this trend, it takes only about ten days to supply 50,000 sets of wool needed to the weaving room! Mr. Zhao, I came here to tell you that you no longer need to send craftsmen to our workshop garden. Now the manpower is basically enough!"

After hearing this, Zhao Yu was surprised and said, "Hmm? This is really good news... But it's a bit late to tell me now! I've sent someone to report to the Prime Minister's Mansion a few days ago, asking the Prime Minister's Mansion to recruit 5,000 laborers in counties near Chang'an... Now the government order has been issued, and the laborers are on the way to Chang'an. You can't help these people!"

"Ah?" Zhang Ran exclaimed in surprise when he heard this: "Mr. Zhao, we still have to collect labor service in this matter. Is it necessary?"

"Hmph~" Hearing Zhang Ran's words, Zhao Yu couldn't help but snorted coldly and said very dissatisfied: "Zhang Zuocheng, I didn't say that when you came to see me a few days ago. At that time, you kept complaining to me about the lack of staff and asking me to transfer more people. Once you open your mouth, you must have tens of thousands of people... I really think you need at least tens of thousands of people? But now you tell me that only 4,000 people is enough!?"

The more he spoke, the more angry he became. Zhao Yu couldn't help but slapped the table on the table and shouted angrily at Zhang Ran: "Zhang Zuocheng, you blindly exaggerate the difficulty of making wool clothes, and you just know how to complain and complain without any consequences... Do you know that this is a crime of dereliction of duty?"

"Mr. Zhao, please calm down!" Zhang Ran said with a bitter face and clasped his fists to Zhao Yu, "Mr. Zhao, this wool garment method was developed by his subordinates a few days ago... Before that, there was no such method of wool garment in the world, so it could not be effective and there was nothing to refer to! So, my subordinates didn't know how many people this method would require... All this needs to be tried or explored before we can know!"

"Um..." After hearing Zhang Ran's explanation, Zhao Yu felt that what he said was a little reasonable. After all, there was no such thing as wool textile before. Even the Huns used to deal with wool as felt or fur... It was precisely because this wool textile was a fresh thing, and Zhao Yu did not have a deep understanding of it, probably only knew a little fur. Only then did Zhang Ran successfully fool Zhao Yu at first, otherwise, with Zhao Yu's shrewdness and educacy, would it be difficult to follow Zhang Ran's words so easily?

However, understanding is understanding, but the trouble Zhang Ran caused to him cannot be ignored and still needs to be solved. Therefore, Zhao Yu still looked at Zhang Ran with a calm face and said coldly: "Zhang Zuocheng, this matter has been caused by you. You say yourself, how should it be solved?"

"Oh~" Hearing Zhao Yu's words, Zhang Ran sighed helplessly. Speaking of which, it turned out to be the current situation. In the final analysis, Zhang Ran's professional level is not good and his government affairs are not skilled enough. If it were replaced by those old officials, it would definitely be impossible to make such a mistake...

Therefore, when facing Zhao Yu's questioning, Zhang Ran knew that he was in the wrong, so he could only answer with a stingy head: "Mr. Zhao, since this mistake is on me, I will naturally solve it. Don't worry, aren't there only five thousand people? Just leave it to me! With these people, you can help me produce the 50,000 sets of sweaters as soon as possible and send them to the soldiers on the frontier as soon as possible!"

"Well..." Zhao Yu nodded slightly, barely accepting Zhang Ran's statement, but he still couldn't help but warn Zhang Ran: "Xiaolang, these officials have certain rules in their work. They must follow the rules and cannot act willfully. Things like this one cannot be done in two ways, and there must be no next time, do you know?"

"Okay, OK~" Zhang Ran nodded repeatedly and immediately expressed his opinion to Zhao Yu: "Mr. Zhao, don't worry, there will never be another next time!"

After saying that, Zhang Ran suddenly remembered the purpose of coming to Zhao Yu this time, and quickly asked Zhao Yu: "Mr. Zhao, what's the situation in the weaving room? Is this wool textile and garment making going smoothly? When can we do the 50,000 sets of cold-proof clothes needed by the soldiers in the North?"

Zhao Yu pondered for a few seconds and replied: "Yesterday, the weaving room order came to report. He had mobilized enough weavers and taught the wool textile skills to those weavers... There are tens of thousands of weavers in the weavers. As long as you have sufficient wool supply, there is basically no problem with them. As for when the 50,000 sets of clothes can be completed... I can't give you accurate numbers, but according to the situation in the weaving room, it will be a little slower than yours at the latest!"

"That's great! Now I can finally have a good sleep!" Hearing Zhao Yu's words, Zhang Ran smiled with high fives, and felt as if he had an immediate reassurance in his heart, and he felt relieved.

Then, Zhang Ran couldn't help but say to Zhao Yu happily: "Mr. Zhao, tomorrow is my holiday. I plan to have a good rest at home tomorrow. I have been eating and living in the Workshop Garden these days, but I'm very tired... So, please keep an eye on the things in the Workshop Garden..."

According to convention, officials of the Han Dynasty usually take a break every five days, and Zhang Ran has been in the workshop garden for five days recently. After working hard these five days, Zhang Ran felt exhausted and exhausted both physically and mentally.

So Zhang Ran wanted to take advantage of this holiday to take a good rest at home for a day, relieve his nervousness and relax.
