Chapter 196: Great Craftsman!
"Xiaoxi, why did Xuan'er go to sleep as soon as she came back?"
In the evening, Mrs. Li came to the West Courtyard to look for her son, but was told by Xiaoxi that Li Zexuan had already fallen asleep, and Mrs. Li couldn't help but ask in surprise.
"Madam, the young master has been too tired these days, and... And the young master seems to miss the young lady a little! ”
Xiao Xi's cheeks were a little red as he spoke.
Mrs. Li was stunned for a moment, and just wanted to ask Xiaoxi how she knew that Li Zexuan wanted a daughter-in-law, but when she saw Xiaoxi's flushed face, Mrs. Li immediately thought of what her son should have done with this little girl, but she didn't dare to say much about this kind of thing, anyway, her son would definitely not suffer. At that moment, she shook her head, glanced at Xiaoxi inexplicably, and left.
At the same time, she thought in her heart that her son's wedding date had to be set earlier, so that she could hug her fat grandson as soon as possible!
"Ah~ Madam, it's not what you think!"
When Xiao Xi saw Mrs. Li's inexplicable eyes, she suddenly came to her senses, knowing that her wife must be crooked, she hurriedly explained.
It's just that Mrs. Li is destined to not listen to this explanation.
……………
"Xuan'er, come on, come on, you didn't eat last night, eat more today!"
In the early morning, Li Zexuan decisively woke up hungry all the time, so he caught up with his wife to have breakfast.
"Uh-huh, thank you, mother!"
Li Zexuan said vaguely while stuffing something into his mouth.
"You kid, what's polite to your mother, my son has worked hard in the country prison these days, my mother will make you something good at noon to make up for it!"
Mrs. Li said with a smile on her face.
"Uh-huh!"
What else can Li Zexuan say? He could only nod his head happily.
"Xuan'er, the wedding date between you and Yuxi has been set, Qingxuan Daoist said that the twenty-fifth of next month is the auspicious day of the zodiac, and it is appropriate to marry, your father and I are discussing with Han Li, although the time is a little tight, but with the manpower and material resources of our Li family, we have fully prepared, so we set your wedding date on the twenty-fifth of next month."
Mrs. Li looked at her son and said kindly.
"Huh?"
Li Zexuan's eyes widened in surprise, and after a while, he reacted and said excitedly: "Mmmm, this is great, mother, the child thought that he would have to wait for at least two months!" ”
"Hehe, look at you're in a hurry, Xuan'er, if you have a daughter-in-law in the future, do you have to forget your mother?"
Mrs. Li couldn't help but joke when she saw her son's look of being eager to marry his daughter-in-law.
"Where? Mother, don't worry, you will always be the most important person in your child's heart! ”
"Little slippery!"
………………
There is no need to go to the school hall today, and he heard such a big good news in the morning, Li Zexuan instantly forgot the sorrow in the rain yesterday afternoon, and now he is in the mood to go out to wave again.
However, there are only a few places to go, and after thinking about it, Li Zexuan still decided to go to the workshop to see the progress of the compilation of dictionaries and newspapers, as well as the research and development progress of paper machines.
……………
"Hello host!"
As soon as he entered the door of the workshop, a small servant came over to say hello, Li Zexuan nodded, looking at the circle of people around the east end of the courtyard, he couldn't help but ask curiously: "What are they doing?" ”
"Back to the owner, it is said that the paper machine has been made yesterday afternoon, and today Steward Fu and Young Master Yan are trying it out."
The little guy replied respectfully.
"Oh?"
Li Zexuan was happy in his heart, Yan Shaoning participated in the research and development of this paper machine, and the progress was really much faster, and he was really in a hurry today.
"You go get busy, I'll go over there and have a look."
Li Zexuan waved his hand, raised his foot and walked over there.
………………
"Zhao Da, you control the horse speed!"
"Zhang Xiaohua, you go to fill the pulp pool!"
"Guo Liu, you go to Morning Glory!"
As soon as he got close to the crowd, he heard Yan Shaoning in the field like a marshal, constantly dispatching and commanding.
"Look, it's out!"
"The paper is so big, and the paper is so fast!"
"The thickness of the paper is quite uniform!"
"At this rate, it is estimated that it will only take a few breaths to come out, right?"
(Generally a knife of paper, refers to 100 sheets)
"yes, yes!"
………
As soon as Li Zexuan squeezed into the crowd, he saw a huge and bulky large machine, towering in the open space east of the workshop, the monster-like machine, under the pull of animal power, made a "click" part friction sound, the paper outlet was rapidly spitting out the paper prototype, there was a wooden shelf under the paper outlet, and after the paper was sent to the shelf, there was a craftsman to take the paper to the side to dry, on the whole, the paper production efficiency is very high.
"It worked!"
"Great, we made it!"
Seeing that the paper machine could produce paper normally for a quarter of an hour, a group of panda-eyed craftsmen standing next to Yan Shaoning couldn't help but cheer excitedly, God knows how much effort they have put in to work overtime in the past few days.
"Shaoning!"
Li Zexuan saw that their excitement was almost over, so he walked over.
"Xiao Xuan, why are you here?"
"Hello host!"
"Hello host!"
"Congratulations, this paper machine is the cornerstone of our Datang education in the future, your efforts today will be enough to leave a name in history, in the future, my Datang literati, every piece of paper used, will have your share of credit! You're all good! ”
Li Zexuan looked at the real technical backbone of the group of workshops in front of him, among them, the older ones were already gray-haired, the younger ones had just reached the crown, as craftsmen, they all lived at the bottom of society, but their creativity was enough to be worthy of a regular army, and they deserved to be respected. Seeing them, Li Zexuan couldn't help but think of the scientists who struggled in the front line of scientific research in his previous life, they were also just as hard, but after a lifetime of scientific research, it is not as good as a star, and he earns more money by acting in a play.
Thinking of this, Li Zexuan couldn't help but shout loudly, he was crying out for what happened to these craftsmen!
"Oh~!"
"We're good!"
Li Zexuan's words, the craftsmen were enthusiastic, they worked overtime, just because they were in the workshop on weekdays, they got Li Zexuan's very good treatment, and they wanted to repay it, they never expected that the things they made would have such a great significance behind them, so these craftsmen couldn't help but cheer.
"All the craftsmen involved in the research and development of paper machines, each person will be rewarded with two dollars, now, you go back to rest first, the body is the biggest capital!"
Li Zexuan looked at these people in front of him, although most of them had expressions and excitement on their faces, the tiredness in their eyes couldn't be hidden, so he hurriedly asked these craftsmen to go back to rest.
Hearing that there were two rewards, the craftsmen who had just been satisfied on the spiritual level were also satisfied on the material level at this moment, and they all bent down to thank them.
"Thank you, owner!"
"Thank you, young master!"
Li Zexuan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Well, you guys go and rest!" ”
