Chapter 65: The Paper Is Out
After eating and drinking, there were two more salted fish lying on rocking chairs in the yard.
"Brother Yin, it's not good for us to be like this." Qin Huaiyu turned his head and whispered to Wang Yin.
"Why," Wang Yin waved his hand casually: "It's just a sunbath, what can happen." ”
Qin Huaiyu looked at Li Tai, who looked tired and his legs were trembling: Brother Yin, are you sure you are not deliberately torturing His Royal Highness King Wei?
"Alright, Chubby Dun'er, let's take a break." Wang Yin glanced at him, saw that he was almost there, and spoke.
"Whew. Call... Li Tai sat directly on the ground, panting heavily.
It turned out that it was just a simple sitting, but it could be so comfortable...
"Gollum... Li Tai's stomach sounded, making Li Tai blush.
"Okay, let's eat something, lest your father say I'm abusing you?" Wang Yin shouted to the side: "Lao Jia, take our 'His Royal Highness King Wei' to dinner." ”
Jarvis trotted over all the way: "His Royal Highness King Wei, let's go to dinner with the old slave." ”
"Humph! This king won't eat your stuff! Although Li Tai was hungry, he still couldn't erase his face.
"Sample, I'm still arrogant." Wang Yin sent Jarvis away: "Then you can do whatever you want." ”
Fifteen minutes later
"Little chubby dun'er, it's almost time to rest," Wang Yin raised his eyes and glanced at Li Tai: "Let's run a few laps around the house." ”
"Wang Yin! Don't go too far! When Li Tai heard this, he exploded again: "How long are you going to humiliate this king?!" ”
Wang Yin heard the music and walked up to Li Tai: "Do you want to run?" Or can I help you? ”
"You... What are you going to do?! Li Tai was so frightened that he took a few steps back.
I just got beaten yesterday, and now the shadow hasn't disappeared...
"It's so good, and exercising more is good for your health." Wang Yin once again Ge You lay down on the rocking chair.
The corners of Qin Huaiyu's mouth twitched when he heard this: Brother Yin, judging from your behavior, your words are not convincing at all...
In the end, Qin Huaiyu really couldn't sit still, after all, doing nothing like this was really unbearable, and he felt that his bones were itching.
In the end, he simply got up and ran with Li Tai.
"Hey, poor baby, born with a hard life." Wang Yin looked at Qin Huaiyu's back and shook his head and sighed: "Salted fish talent is simply negative!" ”
Li Tai felt that this was simply the darkest day of his life.
That Wang Yin simply tortured himself in a different way, first standing and drying for a long time, and then running around his mansion several times, and then what were 'push-ups' and 'sit-ups'。。。。。。
And Wang Yin grasped the time very well, every time he was about to faint from exhaustion, he shouted to stop, let himself rest, and then continued to torture himself.
"Father, mother, what kind of ecstasy soup did this Wang Yin pour into you, why do you want to let him torture Qingque like this..." Li Tai felt so bitter and wronged...
Palace
"Your Majesty, Duan Lun, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, asks to see you." Wang Gonggong walked up to Li Shimin and whispered.
"Duan Lun?" Li Shimin suddenly thought of something: "Xuan! ”
"Minister, Duan Lun, I have seen Your Majesty." Duan Lun came in and bowed.
"Duan Lun, but the paper was made?" Li Shimin hurriedly approached. Staring at the box that Duan Lun brought over, he said.
"Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life." Duan Lun handed over the box with both hands.
Li Shimin opened the lid excitedly, and a stack of papers lay quietly inside.
"It's so white!" Li Shimin was surprised.
Datang's paper is generally a little yellow, and although the paper Duan Lun brought is not as white as snow, it is not far away.
Li Shimin hurriedly took out one and looked at it carefully: the hand was soft and smooth, the paper was flexible, and there was no residue of raw materials.
Turning to the bookcase, he took out a pen and wrote on the paper: the lines were smooth, the edges of the handwriting were smooth and rounded, and there was no ink on the table.
Li Shimin was overjoyed: "What is the cost and output of this paper?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the cost is less than one in ten compared with the previous paper-making method, and the speed is even more incomparable!" Duan Lun Zhengse said: "Originally, it took 100 days to just drift the pond, and then there were dozens of processes, which were extremely labor-intensive and material-intensive, and once one step was done wrong, the paper would be wasted." And now the method provided by His Majesty only needs a few processes, two or three days
It can be made into paper. ”
"Good! Very good! Li Shimin couldn't help but clench the paper in his hand: "You go back and put down the other things at hand and concentrate on increasing papermaking!" ”
"Whoa!" Duan Lun was ordered to retire.
The family has always been a big mountain in Li Shimin's heart.
Li Shimin himself is from a family, so he naturally understands one thing deeply:
There are no thousand-year-old dynasties, only thousand-year-old families!
They control the vast majority of the money, grain, land and books in the world, and the court is full of officials from a large number of families, and if they want to, they can create a rebellion against Li Shimin at any time.
The reason why we haven't done this now is simply that it is not in the development interests of the family.
The high cost of books has led to the possibility of poor families basically cutting off the possibility of reading: if they can't eat enough, how can they have money to buy books to read?
There is no cold door in the upper grade, and there is no scholar in the lower grade.
The vast majority of the world's book collection is controlled by the family, and over time a vicious circle is created: the poor cannot afford to read, so they can only join the family's camp, and there are more and more officials from the family in the court.
The imperial examination has been completely reduced to an ornament.
Now with this new type of paper, studying in a poor family will no longer be a luxury, and it will also be the first step to disintegrate the mountain of the family.
"Wang Yin, you really gave me a big surprise." Li Shimin muttered.
General's Palace
"Alright, that's all for today." Wang Yin looked at the time, it was already past five o'clock.
"Whew... Call... Li Tai collapsed directly to the ground, gasping for breath.
Where did he suffer this kind of sin since he was a child, and now Li Tai only feels that there is no place on his body that is not sore, especially his two feet, and he can hardly feel their existence...
"Huaiyu, send our 'His Royal Highness King Wei' back to the palace." Wang Yin waved his hand at Qin Huaiyu.
"You... Just let me go? When Li Tai heard Wang Yin's words, his face was full of disbelief.
Originally, he was mentally prepared for the next unknown horror torture...
"Why, you still want to stay overnight?" Wang Yin pursed his lips.
Li Tai snorted, trying to get up but failed, Qin Huaiyu hurriedly helped Li Tai into the carriage and walked all the way to the palace.
Tai Chi Palace
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, concubine." Empress Eldest Sun congratulated Li Shimin after listening to Li Shimin's talk about the new paper.
"First the zigzag plough horseshoe, then the soap soap. Now that there is this new type of paper, it seems that it is really said by Guanyin. Li Shimin was pleased: "There is no need to force it, let it be." ”
"The concubine is just a guess." Empress Changsun said: "Judging from the current situation, Wang Yin doesn't care much about these technologies, and he seems to be transforming the things around him in the direction of his hometown, maybe he wants to find the feeling of returning to his hometown." ”
"If that's the case, it looks like we'll have to find a way to get him out and walk more." Li Shimin nodded: "The more Wang Yin sees and experiences, the more our Datang will benefit." ”
"Your Majesty, Qin Huaiyu, the son of the Duke of Yiguo, asks to see you." The prince came over and said.
"Xuan."
"Qin Huaiyu, grass people, I have seen Your Majesty." Qin Huaiyu stepped forward and bowed.
"No courtesy." Li Shimin waved his hand: "What is Huaiyu looking for?" ”
"Your Majesty, the grass people will escort His Royal Highness King Wei back to the palace on the orders of Brother Yin." Qin Huaiyu stretched out his hand and took out a piece of paper from his arms: "There is a letter from Brother Yin, please open it in person." ”
Wang Gonggong hurriedly took the letter and turned around and presented it to Li Shimin.
"This is unusual," Li Shimin smiled, opened the letter and read it.
It is said to be a letter, but it is actually a folded piece of paper.
"Where is King Wei?" After reading the letter, Li Shimin asked.
"His Royal Highness King Wei is tired today, and he has been sent back to the palace to rest at this moment." Qin Huaiyu replied.
"Alright, you can go back." Li Shimin waved his hand.
