Back in Lufu, Chu Ying asked Lu Ming for some good pear blossom wood, and slowly carved it with a knife, the old lady Yuwen must have been in bed for a long time and her legs and feet must be uncomfortable, looking at the maid who pinched her legs next to her, it is estimated that the old lady Yuwen's legs are a little swollen.

I don't have the money to buy expensive medicines, and I am not allowed to take care of Mrs. Yuwen, so I can only think of a way to make a roller to dredge the meridians, and when the time comes, let Lu Ming send it in his name, maybe I can talk about comfort, and I have done my meager filial piety.

"What is this doing? Why are there thorns on these small round balls with holes...... Who are you going to fight? Lu Ming picked up the small wooden ball in the basket.

"This is made for Mrs. Yuwen, and when it is polished and smooth, it will be assembled, and it can be pushed like this, which can dredge the meridians." Lu Ming watched Chu Ying polish the handle with burlap and shiny a little, Chu Ying knew that the old lady Yuwen was still more concerned about her illness, but she never called her grandmother, and she had always been commensurate with the old lady.

"Well, I'll send it to you when you're done, I've seen you copying books too tired lately, and this is also a big project, you definitely can't do it alone, so I invited five scholars to help you." Lu Ming asked the five scholars to come in and get to know Chu Ying.

Seeing them doing it, Chu Ying also bent down and raised her hand to return the salute, "It's better to let them do it, at the beginning, I was too self-conscious, and I thought that I could finish copying it in a few days." Then I'll go back when I'm done with this roller. Is the land on the other side of the bamboo forest done? ”

"The land is done, don't you copy it?" Lu Ming invited a few scholars to share the burden for Chu Ying, but he didn't expect Chu Ying to go back.

"If the bamboo forest is done, I will go to buy some things and start the paper mill, and when the paper mill is built, it should be almost copied here, and then I can start printing."

Lu Ming watched Chu Ying break the branches of the pear blossom wood a little, inserted the stick that had strung the small log between the two holes dug, and waited for the adjustment Chu Ying tried it on his lap.

Chu Ying is really tired of copying here every day, it is better to let her do other things, and Chu Ying was also a little angry when she went to Yuwen Mansion before, and going back to the countryside can make Chu Ying feel better.

"Okay, then I'll leave the matter of copying the book here, and when I finish copying it, I'll go to Mr. Qingyan to copy it, but you have to send this little book, or I won't do it." Agui, prepare a table for a few scholars and arrange it in the side room, you can go with him. Lu Ming sent away a few scholars and went to Chu Ying's side, this little guy may go back tomorrow, it will take a long time for him to see him, he has to take a good look and keep it in his heart, so that he will not be too vague when he thinks of her.

"Okay, I'll make a batch when I get back." Chu Ying looked at the roller that was quite useful, but she always felt that it would be a little inappropriate to just take it like this in the bag that didn't contain it.

"You've got that piece of land done, what are your plans?"

Chu Ying raised her head and blinked, she didn't have time to clean up the land now, and she had to wait for the paper mill on the other side of the bamboo forest to be built before she had the energy to get it.

"Let's talk about it when the paper mill is built, Lu Ming, can you ask your embroidery girl to make a bag that can hold this?" Chu Ying put the roller on Lu Ming's hand. "Okay, leave this to me, can I do a few more as you do? It's quite comfortable to use. ”

"Of course you can, you can take it, but you have to help me give it to Mrs. Yuwen when I made it myself, remember to say that you gave it to you, otherwise I am afraid that she will not accept it." Lu Ming put away the rollers, put away all the books that Chu Ying had copied in the past few days, and sent the black charcoal back when the time came.

"Okay, would you like to bring some millet back? Do you have enough to eat? Even if I paid for the silver that I bought from the land before, it will still be divided into three percent as before, and your silver will be taken to the paper mill, or you will have no money. ”

"How embarrassing is this, I haven't made money yet, so I let you pay so much, just deduct it from the money you earn like paper in the future." Chu Ying wanted to take the lead in this matter as much as possible and do it herself, but Lu Ming was embarrassed to contribute money and effort like this, and he was only divided into three percent.

"This is like paper is now slowly starting to stabilize, you can get 20 taels to 30 taels every month, and my father's coastal side has been opened, and now he is bringing goods to the north, and he will definitely earn more when the time comes, you don't have to worry, and I am also very optimistic about your plan to sell books, and I will definitely get a lot of money when the time comes."

Since Lu Ming said this, Chu Ying couldn't shirk it, "Okay, I'll give you the money as soon as I make money from selling books." ”

Seeing Chu Ying's eyebrows smiling, Lu Ming's heart also stretched a lot, "Okay, I'll just sit and wait for the cashier." How much silver do you need for a paper mill? I'll let Black Carbon help you get the money back. ”

Chu Ying has seen the copper plate here, there are ten strings of copper coins for one tael of silver, and his more than ten taels can really not be pulled away without a carriage. "I'll take 0 taels first, and put the rest here for you, you can keep it for me."

Chu Ying packed the clothes, changed the clothes that Lu Ming borrowed from herself before, folded them and put them on the bed, "Why don't I go back and wash these clothes and send them to you?" ”

"No, here you go, you're dressed quite well, and you can't dress appropriately for business? You're going to be the shopkeeper in the future, and I'll have to slap you up. Chu Ying patted Lu Ming, who was squinting at herself, and was smiling at herself, this kid is really good.

"As long as you can talk, then I'll go back, and now I'll be home before dark, and I'll have to go buy some things." Lu Ming saw that Chu Ying had packed up the burden on his back and was ready to leave, and just now he asked Ah Gui to inform Hei Tan to prepare the car, and Chu Ying was about to leave now patting the ashes on the soles of his feet.

"Okay, the black charcoal has already prepared the car outside, but you may not be able to eat the stewed pig's feet made by Erniang." Lu Ming looked at Chu Ying, who licked her tongue and was a little embarrassed, thinking that the delicious food would keep her, but she still strode away.

Chu Ying waited at the door for a while before seeing Hei Tan driving over, getting into the carriage Chu Ying saw a big wooden box on the carriage, opened it and there were 0 taels of silver inside, behind the wooden box was a pile of sacks, poked it inside, it was estimated that it was millet, Lu Ming thought really thoughtfully.

For example, paper needs to be soft and absorbent, and this writing paper is different, before I used to use the hemp paper made of the linen frame to write, but the progress of papermaking is too slow, you need to build a pool to make bamboo curtains to make paper, so that you can speed up the progress, because the age is not good, the price of food is high, this kind of non-essential goods sales are not good, Chu Ying bought six cars of green bricks at a price less than usual.

Two large wooden barrels with one person high and two hands wide are also ordered, so that the amount of steaming can be increased. Waiting to buy it, Chu Ying asked Hei Tan to drive to Uncle Qi and Uncle Qiu's house, and asked them to prepare to go to the bamboo forest by the river in Zheng Village tomorrow.

Chu Ying was still thinking about how to make the bamboo curtain for papermaking, so Hei Tan stopped the car, "Leave the silver and leave." ”

Chu Ying opened the curtain and saw several masked men holding farm tools in front of the carriage viciously, "This is the car of the Lu Mansion, do you dare to rob it?" ”

"I can't eat, what is there to rob or not, the king of heaven and Lao Tzu are going to rob it, give the money quickly, I saw you in the market just now, there must be a lot of money in the car, take it out quickly, and you can spare your lives." The burly man at the head waved his scythe in front of him a few times.

Chu Ying crossed her hands and moved her muscles, turned her head a few times, her eyes showed a fierce light, she dared to rob the old lady's head, and dared to beat her own idea of money, Chu Ying would definitely not compromise. (There is a bug in the front of making paper, this overhead era is the Western Han Dynasty, there is papermaking but not perfect, the current ancient method of papermaking is improved by Cai Lun of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the next chapter will fix this bug, and the previous one will be modified.) ）
