What does Gao Zixin want to auction this time?

There is something special about what he is going to auction this time.

This time, what he wanted to sell was not the various rare treasures treasured in the treasury in the palace, but the agency of Duobaolou.

As he said to Qian Bi before, they don't have so many people now, and it's too late to make a move. Therefore, he planned to auction off the agency rights of the branch, which could make a lot of money without bothering to arrange someone to operate it.

No way, although he is the emperor and the lord of the world, but the girder is so big, even if there is Jinyiwei, it is impossible to keep an eye on the business of Duobaolou to see if the stewards below have done anything, right?

In this way, the efficiency is too low.

People are inevitably greedy, especially when the sky is high and the emperor is far away, once the huge interests are in front of them, the heart is even greater.

Gao Zixin didn't want to fuel some people's greed, and he didn't want to waste all his energy on a multi-treasure building. With other people who arrange their own business, be careful not to do anything with the people below, it is better to go out directly.

In this way, he can charge a large agency fee, and he can ask for a dividend regardless of how the people in the branch operate.

Anyway, the source of goods is in his hands, he is the emperor, will those businessmen below still fight against him for such a small dividend?

Not only that, there are many businessmen in the world, and if he doesn't need him to let Jinyiwei closely monitor them, other businessmen will stare at those who have obtained the agency right so that they can replace them.

This time, Gao Zixin is even more trouble-free.

Qian Bi and Taiping were looking forward to curiosity, but they never expected that Gao Zixin could have such a dark belly!

When Gao Zixin said his plan succinctly, Qian Bi and Taiping were stunned at the same time. A person and a turtle stared at the beads at the same time, looking at Gao Zixin stupidly, and his stupid appearance was a little similar!

Soon, Qian Bi recovered from the shock. He was full of smiles, overjoyed, and slapped Gao Zixin on the back one by one: "Your Majesty, you are so wise!" You can rest assured, the minister will go back and make arrangements, and this matter will be done properly! ”

was praised by Qian Bi like this, and the smile on Gao Zixin's face became more and more obvious, and the corners of his mouth never went down. He pursed his lips, tried his best to make a calm and calm appearance, and taught Qian Bi a serious lesson: "Where is this going, you can watch, I still have the means to show it." ”

Qian Bi didn't dare to doubt Gao Zixin's words, if he didn't improve Zixin's ability, he wouldn't dare to offend with Gao Zixin's black belly and grudge!

He said a bunch of good things, and he couldn't wait to hold Gao Zixin to the sky, but he was really full of expectations for the future.

He suddenly felt that maybe the young emperor in front of him could really turn things around and let Daliang completely get rid of the decline and enter prosperity.

Thinking of this, Qian Bi was even more determined in his plan, he would do his best to assist Gao Zixin!

Immediately afterward, he was ready to retire and return to Beijing to arrange this special auction.

So he said: "Your Majesty, the minister will go back to Beijing to arrange the auction." ”

However, Gao Zixin said: "Wait first, when you go back, you will hand this over to Li Ying, the head of the Internal Construction Bureau." As he spoke, he took out an envelope and asked Huanxi to hand it to Qian Bi.

The envelope was not sealed, and there was no writing on it, but Qian Bi didn't dare to look at it more. Although he was a little curious in his heart, he didn't dare to look at it more, but just promised: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will personally hand it over to Manager Li." ”

Gao Zixin didn't think that the things in it were secret, he had a casual attitude: "You can take a look at the things in it first, if it is successful, I am going to open a Tianxia bookstore, and the Tibetan library can also start to be built." ”

When Qian Bi heard this, he no longer had any worries and quickly opened the envelope.

There was only a thin piece of paper in the envelope, and Qian Bi was stunned after taking it out and looking at it: "Movable type printing? Petroleum to ink? This ......"

Looking at the things recorded on the paper, Qian Bi's heart suddenly beat violently.

Nowadays, a large number of printed books are used for engraving, the process is very troublesome, each page has to be engraved by a special craftsman, and once a word is engraved wrong, the whole engraving plate is destroyed, and it must be re-engraved, which is very labor-intensive and material-consuming.

However, if it were printed with movable type, it would be much simpler. Not only does it not need to engrave a large number of engravings, but even if you make a mistake, you can re-engrave it.

Movable type is made directly with clay, and when printing, you only need to arrange all the movable type according to the content of the page, and you can print it in large quantities, which is not only convenient, but also very cost-saving!

Qian Bi felt excited just thinking about it.

And when he finished reading the other "petroleum-to-ink" recorded on the paper, he was even more excited.

Most of the ink on the market today is made of pine tobacco, and he heard that in many places, pine wood has been cut down almost completely in order to make pine tobacco.

But if the oil is really inexhaustible, and it burns with great smoke, and the quality of the ink produced is better than that of pine smoke, it will not only greatly save costs, but also make it easier to print a large number of books!

At this time, Qian Bi did not have the concept of "sustainable development" as in later generations, nor did he know anything about "protecting forests", but he still instinctively felt that it would not be good once the pine trees in various places were cut down.

Gao Zixin, however, had seen the terrible consequences of the destruction of vegetation from the memory copies of the ripples, so as soon as he saw the record of petroleum-based ink making and pine wood being cut down in the "Heavenly Works", he decided to immediately order people to try the possibility of petroleum-based ink, and if it was really as good as the book recorded, then promote it in a big way, so that the people would not always stare at the scourge of pine.

On this day, Gao Zixin gave Qian Bi too many surprises, so when Qian Bi left from the summer resort, despite the hot weather, he was still dancing with his eyebrows and full of interest, and he couldn't wait to rush back to the capital immediately and do everything well.

After he left, Taiping looked at Gao Zixin with an unusually complicated gaze.

Even if Gao Zixin is cheeky and his nerves are thick, he is uncomfortable being stared at like this all the time.

He coughed lightly in embarrassment, and looked at the old turtle Taiping in confusion: "Why are you looking at me like this?" ”

However, Taiping couldn't speak at all, and after taking a deep look at Gao Zixin, it suddenly moved its limbs and crawled away slowly.

If you don't go, you can't go, the better Gao Zixin has to be, the more he feels that his old face has no place to rest. The blow was so great that it had to find a place to be quiet.

Gao Zixin didn't know what kind of madness it was about, but he was busy studying the various crafts recorded in "Heavenly Creations", and he didn't have the heart to care about what an old turtle was thinking.

"Heavenly Creations" is indeed a strange book, which not only records movable type printing and petroleum ink, but also records the method of pearl cultivation, which makes Gao Zixin particularly excited.

And he remembered that the agriculture and breeding industry in the other world was much more developed than the big beam. Not only are there more crops and frighteningly high yields, but there are also all kinds of amazing farming techniques.

For example, aquaculture.

According to the record of "Heavenly Creation", pearls come from the sea, and people with colored pearls have to risk their lives every time they go into the water, so the amount of pearls is small and the price is very expensive.

If you can really breed freshwater beads, it will definitely be very profitable!

However, pearl cultivation takes too long, and it takes several years from cultivation to harvest, so you can arrange people to prepare it first.

Gao Zixin pondered his plan to make a fortune, but the old turtle Taiping, who left, slowly climbed to the Ruyi Palace to find the Queen Mother He for comfort.

As soon as it thought that Gao Zixin was getting better and better now, its mood became more and more depressed, and when it returned to Ruyi Palace, its head was almost completely retracted into the shell, and it refused to come out.

He asked Xiao Shunzi, the eunuch who was in charge of taking care of Taiping, puzzled: "Where did it just go?" How did it suddenly become like this? Has anyone bullied it? ”

He didn't know why, he actually directly favored the old turtle, and asked if someone had bullied it as soon as he opened his mouth.

Xiao Shunzi smiled bitterly in his heart, Taiping is so cruel, and he has the blue eyes of the Queen Mother and His Majesty, who dares to bully it in the entire summer resort?

The only one who dared to bully it was probably the only one who was the national teacher.

But today Taiping went to see His Majesty, and he didn't meet the national teacher at all!

Xiao Shunzi was actually quite curious in his heart, but when Taiping entered the hall before, he was stopped at the door, and he didn't know what was going on inside.

So he could only say: "Back to the Queen Mother, Taiping just went to see His Majesty, and the slave doesn't know what happened, but after Taiping came out, it has always been like this." ”

He narrowed his eyes, and soon had a suspicion: "At that time, the national teacher was with His Majesty?" ”

She is also smart, knowing that except for Feng Xuan, no one else dares to bully Taiping, the old turtle.

Xiao Shunzi shook his head: "The national teacher was not present, but Prime Minister Qian came to find His Majesty, and it seemed that he was discussing important matters with His Majesty." And after Premier Qian left, Taiping came out of it. ”

"Qian Bi?" He shook his head instinctively, "No, it can't be him, he doesn't have the guts." ”

Not only does he not have the guts, but he is simply the only one who bullies Qian Bi in Taiping!

Qian Bi is Gao Zixin's former companion, He has seen him many times, and he knows Qian Bi's temperament too well.

Xiao Shunzi didn't speak, Qian Bi's identity was not something he could discuss.

He also knew that he couldn't ask anything else from his mouth, so he waved his hand: "That's it, you go down first, let it stay here." ”

Taiping stretched out his head and rubbed He's calf obediently and affectionately. He gently touched its head and sighed, "If only you could speak." ”

She was so lonely.
