Chapter 52: Passing This Hurdle
After leaving the Daiyuan, Lin Saburo was in a bad mood.
As half a traverser, he originally had an absolute advantage in this world, not to mention being able to call himself a king and emperor, at least there should be no problem in being rich and noble, in fact, it is true, since he met Zhao Xie and got a hundred yuan of money, it has been developing extremely smoothly.
First to make money, and then to get rid of the shackles of his mother-in-law, he has done very well step by step, and now Lin Zhao has begun to prepare to use the five thousand yuan to invest in the next business......
Here's the trouble.
The problem lies in the 100 yuan he received from Zhao Xie.
In this world, there is no errand that requires a hundred yuan, and after Lin Zhao received this money at that time, he also knew that he might take some risks, and now he ...... The possible risk has already come.
Lin Zhao walked silently on the streets of Yuezhou alone, and then returned to his house, the house was still lit, and after he returned to the yard, Lin Erniang walked out of the house and asked Lin Zhao: "Where did Zhao'er go today, why did you come back now?" ”
Lin Zhao smiled reluctantly: "Uncle Seven called me to go to his place for dinner, so I went." ”
"It's Lin Shilang..."
Lin Erniang showed a smile on her face and said: "Lin Shilang is a Jinshi master, it is a good thing for you to be closer to him, if he can mention you a few words in your studies, your future scientific examination will be much easier." ”
To this day, Lin Erniang still has not given up the idea of letting Lin Zhao take the entrance examination, in her eyes, there is only one business in this world, scientific examination, which can make Lin Zhao really jump out of the quagmire at the bottom and become the middle and upper level of this world.
Lin Zhao shook his head and sighed: "Ah Niang, our family may... Got into trouble. ”
Regarding movable type printing, Lin Zhao has already roughly talked to Lin Erniang these days, Lin Erniang frowned when she heard this, and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”
Lin Zhao sighed and said: "The nobles of Chang'an City bought movable type, and now they are vigorously promoting it in Chang'an, and the people on the other side are a little unhappy, and they sent someone to take the position of the governor of Yuezhou, and they will come to Yuezhou to take office in a few days." ”
"These big people in the court, you come and go, they are all officials, and they can't hurt themselves, but I and small people like A-Niang, once they are implicated, they will suffer if they are not careful."
"That's why I've always wanted you to make a name for yourself."
Lin Erniang still didn't have any panic on her face, she said softly: "You have a reputation on you, those who are officials don't dare to touch you easily, and you don't have to be so frightened." ”
Speaking of this, Lin Erniang looked at her frowning son, and said softly: "But Zhao'er, you don't have to panic, this matter started because of Lin Yuanda, no matter what, he can't ignore it, he is only forty years old and has been a waiter, and it is impossible to have no means to deal with it." ”
"Just look at it."
Lin Erniang took Lin Zhao's hand and said with relief: "If you want to come to Chang'an, you can't be completely unreasonable." ”
Lin Zhao took a deep breath and said, "What A-Niang said is that the son is only worried about A-Niang's suffering. ”
"Zhao'er is still a child, where is the reason why children are worried about adults?"
Lin Erniang said softly: "We will be safe." ”
Lin Zhao nodded, and after saying a few words to his mother, he washed up briefly and went back to his room to rest.
Early the next morning, he got up early, and after breakfast, he didn't even go to the bookstore, so he walked towards the courtyard of the Xie family, and when he arrived at the gate of the courtyard of the Xie family, he reached out and knocked on the door, and shouted, "Uncle Xie, are you at home?" ”
Soon, the door was opened, Xie Yuran stood behind the door, gritted his teeth and said softly: "I know that Daddy is not at home, what is it called......"
The last time Lin Zhao came to look for her, in order to hide people's eyes, it was Xie Sanyuan who called her.
Obviously, this time Xie Zhanran still thought that Lin Zhao was looking for him.
"What are you doing at my house when you don't go to the bookstore early in the morning?"
Lin Zhao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a wry smile: "Sister Xie, I really have something to look for Uncle Xie this time, where did Uncle Xie go this morning?" ”
Xie Yuran's expression was stunned for a moment, and then he spoke: "Recently, Daddy has gone out early in the morning to go to the new workshop, and he doesn't come back until the sun sets every day......"
Speaking of this, she looked up at Lin Zhao: "Three... Saburo, what's wrong? ”
"It's nothing, it's just that I have something to inform Uncle Xie."
He took a breath and said to Xie Yuran: "Sister Xie is at home first, and I'll go look for Uncle Xie." ”
Xie Yuran nodded.
"You go......"
Before she finished her sentence, Lin Zhao had already turned around and ran away, looking at Lin Zhao's back, Xie Yuran stomped his feet.
"I'm still angry..."
She bit her lip and said angrily, "I won't bring you food at noon!" ”
……
On this side, Lin Zhao soon arrived at the new workshop, in the new workshop, Xie Sanyuan was staying with a few coppersmiths, thinking about how to make a good copper mold, he had been in the workshop for a long time, and there was already a lot of black ash on his body at this time, seeing Lin Zhao coming, Xie Sanyuan wiped the sweat on his forehead, turned back to Lin Zhao and said, "Sanlang, why didn't you come here in the bookstore?" ”
This middle-aged man, who has not done anything big in the first half of his life, has been aroused by movable type printing with great enthusiasm for work, and now he is almost devoted to it, wanting to make a career in this industry.
"The bookstore is not open today."
Lin Zhao let out a sigh, pulled Xie Sanyuan's sleeve, and said, "Uncle Xie, I have something to tell you. ”
The coppersmiths in the workshop were still tinkling, and there were so many people that they couldn't speak.
"It's too noisy here, let's go out and talk."
Xie Sanyuan turned around and ordered the coppersmith a few words, and then was pulled out of the workshop by Lin Zhao.
This bookstore owner, who is usually dressed cleanly, is not disheveled at this time, and there is a lot of black ash on his face, which looks quite embarrassed.
He looked at Lin Zhao and asked with some confusion: "San Lang, what's wrong?" ”
"Something is wrong."
Lin Zhao's face was serious, he pulled him to the side of the hidden place, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Xie, Yuezhou is going to change to Zhizhou." ”
"I thought it was something big..."
Xie Sanyuan glanced at Lin Zhao and said: "I knew about this the day before yesterday, saying that Yang Zhizhou was corrupt and bribed in the past, and was dismissed from office, these officials are all the same, and there are few who do not collect money. ”
Xie Sanyuan is considered to be the middle or even upper level of Yuezhou City, although he is not yet at the level of the gentry, but he must know more about the news of officialdom than Lin Zhao.
"Officialdom is coming and going, what's so strange about changing Zhizhou?"
He glanced at Lin Zhao and said, "You kid has nothing else to do, without me, I'll go back to work." ”
"The new Zhizhou is the political enemy of the seventh uncle."
Lin Sanlang still pulled Xie Sanyuan's sleeve, and his voice was low.
"Uncle Xie, our movable type printing has spread to Chang'an, which has caused a great impact."
"This new state is very likely to have come to investigate this matter."
Lin Zhao took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "Uncle Xie, from now on, no matter who asks you about movable type printing, you have to be sure that it is from me." ”
"And on my side, I must say that I came from Uncle Seven."
"In this matter, we must bite it to death, and there must be no negligence."
"I can't even mention the slightest thing about the 10,000 yuan!"
Lin Zhao's voice was low: "After this pass, we should make money and make money, if we can't get by, we may get into big trouble!" ”
Boss Xie was originally full of smiles, but after hearing Lin Zhao's words, his face immediately changed.
