Song Ci went out of the palace with the seven princes, and was immediately warmly invited by Xiao Yiheng, Xiao Lie and Xiao Jing, and couldn't wait to recruit him, but unfortunately Song Ci came to Xiao Rui, how could he still take a fancy to others.

I regard the salty king as the only one, and you other vulgar fans get out of the way!

So naturally, I resigned with an excuse.

Walking out of the noon gate, the princes got into the carriage and left.

Xiao Rui got into the carriage and turned his head to look at Song Ci, just as he also turned around, only to see him saluting Xiao Rui respectfully, Xiao Rui nodded and returned a salute, and the two tacitly left separately.

Back in the Xianwang Mansion, the golden leopard was waiting in the mansion.

"How's it going? Have you memorized the question book? Xiao Rui asked.

The money leopard said respectfully: "Your Highness, the villain has spent a lot of effort and finally finished memorizing, if the exam questions really come from it, the villain can't win the Jinshi and the first, and the Jinshi background is still no problem." ”

Xiao Rui glanced at him and snorted, "Jinshi background? Do you want to die faster? Don't you know what level you are? ”

The money leopard smiled awkwardly and said: "The villain understands, it's just a reverie, the villain's goal is to be born in the same jinshi, and it is the villain's lifelong wish to be on the list and just ask for the lintel." ”

Xiao Rui nodded, he didn't dare to mess around, did he really think that he was as good as himself and could easily win the top prize?

"Oh yes, you are from Hangzhou Mansion, have you ever heard of the Zheng family's murder in Huzhou Mansion five years ago?" Xiao Rui asked.

The money leopard nodded, and said: "Of course I have heard of it, it is a sensational case, the Zheng family is the richest businessman in Huzhou Mansion, and the financial resources are not inferior to our Jin family's Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, who would have thought, but was killed by the thief, it is said that the death was tragic, and the officials who arrived at the scene all vomited." Your Highness, why did you think to ask about this? ”

"Just ask, it's fine. By the way, I haven't seen Shen Wansan recently, where did he go? Xiao Rui asked.

Qian Leopard said: "Uncle Shen is busy studying bamboo paper papermaking and clay movable type printing, this is the primary task assigned by His Royal Highness, and he does not dare to slack off." ”

Yes, His Majesty has also asked about the progress of bamboo paper and clay movable type printing in the past two days, and he has been rounded up by himself with an excuse, in fact, Xiao Ruiguang is thinking of conspiracy and tricks, and keeps saying that he wants to supervise the research process, but in fact, he has not even participated in it, and he doesn't know where he is now.

Shen Wansan is also sincere, and it is estimated that if there is a problem, he will solve it with the craftsmen himself, and he doesn't want to ask himself.

Having said that, it seems that he didn't even pay attention to the research of black powder, so he left it to Wu Zhanfa to watch.

Forehead...

No way, I'm too busy.

It just so happened that it was empty today, Xiao Rui became interested and shouted outside the house: "Gao Quan! ”

"Your Highness, the villain is here." Gao Quan entered the house and waited.

Xiao Rui arranged: "Go and invite Mr. Wenhe and Mr. Fengxiao to come, prepare two other carriages and manpower, and go out of the city later." Oh yes, be covert and don't reveal your identity. ”

"Yes!" Gao Quan immediately went down to make arrangements, and soon, Jia Xu and Guo Jia came.

Xiao Rui stretched out his hand to invite the two of them to sit down, and said, "Mr. Wenhe, Fengxiao, the sun is good today, why don't you go to the Huben Pavilion to have a look?" ”

The Tiger Pavilion is the secret base built by Xiao Rui. It was a manor, located in a valley not far from the northwest camp, the location was quiet, it was originally the property of an old rich man, and it was later bought by Wu Zhanfa, and even bought dozens of acres of land around it, and became Xiao Rui's private property.

went to blackmail Zhuge Yuanba's dignitaries, but he was stingy and unwilling to let the soldiers of the Iron Dragoon as his guards, and finally found a lot of veterans who had been discharged from the army, and they were also veterans in the army, not inferior to the forbidden army, leaving them to act as guards in the Tiger Pavilion.

Nowadays, bamboo paper papermaking, live clay printing, black powder, purified liquor and other plans are carried out in the Tiger Pavilion, and a few years ago it was said that when the Tiger Pavilion is repaired, I want to go and see it in person, and now it has entered February, and I haven't been to it yet.

This master is really big-hearted.

"I thought His Highness had forgotten about the Tiger Pavilion." Jia Xu said with a smile, he has been there more than a dozen times, you can imagine how lazy Xiao Rui is.

"yes, yes." Guo Jia also learned badly, and even nodded in agreement. There is no way, even Guo Jia later went to the Tiger Pavilion a few times.

Xiao Rui covered his forehead, he found out, let these two people get together, did not kill the opponent first, and abolished his superiority first.

Wait a minute.

If Zhuge Liang comes in the future?

Hey... These three people are interesting.

The carriage was ready, and Li Yuanfang and Wei Guang drove to escort Xiao Rui, Jia Xu, Guo Jia, and Qian Leopard out of the city in a low-key manner.

Out of the city, I went straight to the northwest along the official road, walked for more than ten miles, and came to a fork in the road connecting the official road, then turned in, and traveled several miles, bypassed a hill, and the front suddenly opened up.

A huge valley sits in the middle of a hill, dozens of acres, and in the depths there is a manor, which is now burning with smoke. At this time, in front of the manor, there was a strong veteran handle, knowing that King Xian was coming, he hurriedly knelt down to greet him, and Wu Zhanfa had already known in advance that His Royal Highness was coming, so he was also waiting in front of the door.

Xiao Rui got out of the carriage and said to everyone, "Let's walk in." ”

Naturally, there was no objection from the crowd.

Xiao Rui entered the manor, looking at the land in the manor planted with wheat seedlings, at this time it was green, he asked: "Tactics, how many guards are there in the manor now?" ”

"Back to His Highness, sixty-six people, all of them are veterans introduced by Commander Zhuge , and they have all investigated and selected pure white people, so they can be trusted." Wu Zhan Fa Dao.

Xiao Rui said: "Then give them a good enough reward to let them work willingly, in addition, sixty-six people are too few, the secrets in the Tiger Pavilion are very important, and there must be enough personnel to act as a guard and continue to recruit people." ”

According to the system of the Great Xia Kingdom, the prince was crowned the prince, awarded the gold book and gold treasure, and the year was ten thousand stones. There are as few as 1,000 guards and as many as 3,000 men, and they are subordinate to the military department. The crown is the first in the car flag mansion, and the first class is under the son of heaven.

Although it is such a system, which prince dares to have this scale, excluding the forbidden army, there are many guards with one or two hundred people in the palace. Like the Xianwang Mansion, in addition to the 300-strong forbidden army sent by His Majesty, there are also 80 or 90 guards subordinate to the Ministry of War.

Of course, this is because you are in the national capital, and you don't need so many guards, and it is also to avoid taboos.

Like Xiao Yuan, he was assigned a place by His Majesty, and when he left, His Majesty arranged three thousand guards and armor, which is simply a small army, and he can't lose royal face.

However, since there is this system, Xiao Rui dares to blatantly recruit people, and the veterans who have retired from the army have retained their military registration in the military department, so in a sense, they also belong to the subordinate military department, but they didn't go to register and make a register, this is a trick, even if they are impeached in the future, it doesn't matter, and it won't hurt the skin.

"My subordinates understand." Wu Zhanfa saw that Xiao Rui attached so much importance to the defense of the Tiger Pavilion, and immediately took this matter to heart.

Xiao Rui pointed to the land full of wheat seedlings again, and said: "Directly transform this place into a school field, when there are more people, it will be used for training." In addition, the research and development of black powder also requires a test explosion on the site, which is something that can easily kill people, so you must be cautious. ”

"My subordinates understand." Wu Zhanfa was overjoyed, he had long wanted to transform, but unfortunately His Highness didn't come for a long time, he didn't give an order, who would dare to do it.

While walking, Xiao Rui told Wu Zhanfa how to transform this manor according to the ideas of his previous life.

Gradually, in everyone's minds, a new manor was born, which was no longer a paradise of vegetation and vegetables, but as his name suggested, the Tiger Pavilion, which became a fierce, restrained, secret base with claws.

Walking to the depths of the manor, in addition to the original house, a simple bamboo shed was built with bamboo, and many work areas were divided, and each work area studied different products.

Hearing that Xiao Rui was coming, Shen Wansan and Ge Hong called more than 60 craftsmen out to meet him.

"Meet His Royal Highness King Xian!" The crowd bowed.

Xiao Rui looked at the craftsmen who looked different, but were full of energy, and nodded sincerely, as his own dense base, Xiao Rui naturally wanted to say some words of encouragement:

"From today onwards, this king promises that the remuneration of all the craftsmen of the Tiger Pavilion will be three times the level of the craftsmen of the national capital! This is the first one! ”

"The second! Anyone who has made outstanding contributions to the study of inventions and creations and solved difficult problems will be rewarded for their merits and deeds according to the difficulty of the problem. The king can guarantee that the minimum reward starts at fifty taels of silver! ”

"The third! From now on, all craftsmen will be divided into levels according to their level, third-class craftsmen, second-class craftsmen, first-class craftsmen, and master craftsmen, four levels! Third-class craftsmen are paid three times, second-class craftsmen are paid four times, first-class craftsmen are paid five times, and master craftsmen are paid ten times! The rating will be based on your ability and contribution! ”

"Fourth! When you become a first-class craftsman, you can enjoy free housing, and your children can go to private school for free. ”

"The fifth, is an even bigger surprise, and it will be kept secret for the time being."

"The Tiger Pavilion is a place to study the importance of the country and benefit all generations, and this king hopes that you will rise to the challenge! As long as you give, the king will not hesitate to reward! ”

Jia Xu and Guo Jia glanced at each other, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

His Royal Highness has grown up, and he has his own ideas and calculations for everything, which is very rare. There must be brave men under the heavy reward, and now they are given treatment that they never dreamed of, either by painting them flatbread, or by putting hot cakes that have just come out of the oven in front of them, so that these ordinary craftsmen are stunned or salivating.

Because they never thought they would be taken so seriously.

In an instant, the sluggish craftsmen reflected and kowtowed in gratitude.

Xiao Rui nodded, but his tone suddenly became cold, and said: "Of course, the rewards are abundant, and the competition is also very fierce, this king will let Wu Zhanfa make a strict promotion system, in the same way, if you don't have this ability, you will be eliminated directly!" ”

"Yes!"

All the craftsmen have worked hard to pursue the vision of the future life.

Xiao Rui waved his hand and let the craftsmen disperse and continue to work, while he came to the main hall.

Shen Wansan reported on the research progress of improved papermaking, papermaking is divided into four steps, the first is the separation of raw materials, the second is pulping, the third is copying, the fourth is drying, and bamboo paper is on the basis of improving papermaking, the bamboo that has never been made of paper is used as a raw material, and further invented bamboo paper, after all, other raw materials are tight, but the bamboo forests of the Great Xia Kingdom are massive.

Nowadays, bamboo paper is being pulped in the research and development, is making fine bamboo strips, the degree of pulping is improved, in addition, on the choice of sizing agent, is also testing, starch sizing agent effect is not good, is trying to use plant mucus, but what plants to use, still need to be tested one by one.

In general, bamboo paper papermaking proceeded steadily.

The clay movable type printing is not so complicated, but the task is large, it is necessary to use cement to make a blank with consistent specifications, and engrave the reverse single word at one end, and the height of the protrusion of the character is like the thickness of the edge of the copper coin, which is hard to become a single cement movable type.

Shen Wansan fired a few, and the printing effect was good, and at this time he had already begun to order the readers who knew how to write to start carving.

Of course, clay type printing is the beginning, but not the end, and then there are wooden movable type printing and copper movable type printing, which need to be developed slowly.

Other research, such as liquor purification, is also steadily underway.

In the end, it's time for the big thing.
