"Solve the engraving problem?"
Li Xuan looked straight at Li Yi as if he had heard the Arabian Nights, "It's easy for you to say, but you think it's a subset of existing classics and history, and there are countless engravings. The textbooks you mentioned are all still there. There are dozens of hundreds of books that have not been compiled. Where can I find so many craftsmen to carve them one by one.
"As for improving papermaking and reducing costs—if it could be reduced, it would have been reduced a long time ago. There are many types of paper on the market, but only a few are suitable for writing. A powerful family like the Yu family that has been around for hundreds of years, They all have their own unique formula for making paper, which is the most widely spread on the market today. If they don't cooperate, this matter will not be able to progress... "
Li Xuan was spitting, and his tone was quite angry: "These two problems have not been solved for thousands of years. How can we solve them casually?"
Li Yi glanced at him and said, "Oh, why don't you take a gamble?"
Li Xuan looked at him and asked, "What are you betting on?"
"Just bet on whether I can make cheap, high-quality paper, and whether I can figure out a way to print a large number of books in a short period of time."
"Hehe, these two things are related to the officials who study all over the world. Don't try to blow me up. If you have such a method, you would have taken it out when you were preparing to build the academy. Why wait until now?" Li Xuan sneered and asked, "Tell me, what's the bet?"
"I haven't thought about the bet for the time being. I'll talk about it later, but it's definitely not too much... Why, are you afraid?"
"Afraid?" Li Xuan sneered, "I don't go out to inquire, my majestic son, what are you afraid of?"
"Then do you gamble or not?"
"No gambling."
—
Not afraid of returning home, knowing that the outcome is bound to lose, but insisting on betting with him, then it is not a question of being afraid or not, but of being stupid or not.
According to past experience, whenever he bets with himself, he must be confident about something. Today, his tone is so firm, he must succeed and never succeed again, and this bet is foolish.
With a vicious expression on Li Xuan's face, he said, "This Yu family, you have to beat and beat Mingzhu hard!"
Li Yi picked up the two fish and walked back, muttering to himself while walking, "How should I eat today's fish?"
—
"These two days, thank you very much."
In the small pavilion in the cloth village, Zeng Zuimo got up and saluted the white-haired woman. The white-haired woman smiled slightly and said: "It's okay, I'm idle anyway, I haven't touched these things for many years, some Hands-on, I probably won’t have a chance to do it in the future, if it takes longer, I’m afraid I’ll forget it…”
Zeng Zuimo shook his head and said, "How come there is no chance to do it? I don't know if your child is married. In the future, your child will also have a child. Wearing the clothes you sewed by yourself will definitely be very happy."
"My child..." The white-haired woman's eyes were a little dazed, and then she smiled slightly and said, "That's right, I will do more while I can do it now, and after a few years, I won't be able to do it..."
She turned her head to look at the girl with a smile, and said, "I like the fabrics in this store very much. If there are any new styles in the future, please ask the girl to keep an eye on them for me."
Zeng Zuimo nodded with a smile, "Recently famous fabrics in Kyoto are available here, as long as you have heard the name, feel free to send someone to get it."
For some marketing reasons, many high-quality fabrics need to be warmed up in advance, and they will be released after they have been discussed in Kyoto for a period of time.
Before that, it was almost impossible for others to get the fabrics, but these cloth houses and the garment shops in Kyoto were all decided by her alone, so naturally there was no problem of not being able to get the goods.
Chen Miaoyu suddenly looked at Zeng Zuimo and asked, "Is Miss Zeng getting married soon?"
Zeng Zui Mo heard the words, his face turned red, and he whispered: "No, nothing..."
Chen Miaoyu looked at her with a smile on her face, took her hand, and said: "Although we are women, since we have met someone we like, we still have to fight for it. How can a moment's reserve compare to a lifetime of happiness?" ?”
Hearing this sentence, her face became even redder - she looked at it, kissed it, hugged it, even said such shameful words, how could she have any reserve at all
"In short, don't regret what you do now." Chen Miaoyu patted her hand and said, "I should go too."
"I'll see you off."
Although there were not many contacts, the two hit it off very well. When they walked out of the room hand in hand, they heard a slightly chaotic voice from inside the shop.
Inside the store, a young girl said apologetically, "I'm sorry, my lord, 'Soft Smoke' and 'Organdy Wing Yarn' are not in stock yet, please wait for a few days, as soon as they arrive , we will immediately send someone to inform the young master..."
Inside the shop, the young man put his arms around a charming woman, lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Look, they don't have any stock here, and we can't help it..."
The enchanting woman said coquettishly: "Where is it out of stock? These two kinds of fabrics are only produced in their shop. Mr. Yu doesn't know. She is here to tell you if there is no one. It's all used."
The young man showed hesitation on his face. He didn't know the details of this cloth village, but he also knew that it was possible to do business in the capital without any background influence.
The Yu family is also a big family in Jingguo. Although it is not as good as the Cui family and the Wang family, it is not far behind.
Because of the relationship between the King of Shu, the relationship between the Yu family and the Cui family is also very close. Unlike the Cui family's main jewelry business, the Yu family has operated a paper workshop for decades. In the eyes of people, they all belong to the top scholarly family.
However, these are not the capital that he is proud of, at least the Yu family does not have the capital that allows him to run wild at the bottom of the well.
Just when Mr. Yu was hesitating, the enchanting woman beside him leaned over and whispered something in his ear.
"I've heard that the 'soft smoke' and 'organdy' are very thin, and the color is also good-looking. If you wear it on your body, half-covered, it must look good... When the time comes, I will wear it Let me show you..."
Although this Mr. Yu didn't know what "soft smoke" and "organic gauze" were, he understood what this woman said, and a blurry picture suddenly appeared in his mind.
Although the Yu family was not strong enough to run rampant in the capital, that was before. Now, even the Eldest Princess, who single-handedly presides over the government, has asked the Yu family for something, and she has never seen her father.
The Cui family has been extremely satisfied with the Yu family recently. When His Highness the King of Shu takes over in the future, their Yu family may be able to climb up again. Even if there is someone behind this shop, they dare not Mess with the current Yu family.
Thinking again of the eye-catching picture that came to mind just now, Mr. Yu reached into his robe, adjusted his posture, then looked at the girl, and said angrily: "How dare you deceive me, the goods didn't arrive? Then tell me, where did the fabric outside come from!"
