Chapter 11: Blank Paper

"Lang Jun, Lang Jun?"

When he was awakened from his contemplation by the voice of his subordinate, Chen Zhi suddenly realized that he had walked out of the Luzhou Government Office and had walked near his carriage.

"Hoo ......"

With a sigh of relief, Chen Zhi got into the carriage and ordered: "Go home!" ”

The car began to drive on the slightly rough road in the city, and Chen Zhi also began to secretly ponder the two things that King Yu had just explained to him.

Either way, it's quite difficult.

Needless to say, after Chen Zhi goes back, he must ask his father first before he can give Li Yuanjia a clear answer; As for the latter request, I don't need to think much about whether I can do it to help King Yu collect some solitary books or something, but if you really want to talk about the difficulty, maybe it's even bigger than the previous one!

There are books in Luzhou, can Chang'an City have them?

But......

As soon as he thought of the scene he had just seen in King Yu's study, Chen Zhi's eyes couldn't help but reveal something called envy - all books! That's a lot of books! Although I don't know the specific number, in Chen Zhi's opinion, such a large bookshelf is full of thousands of volumes, right?

For any reader, that's an irresistible temptation!

After returning home, Chen Zhi immediately came to the main room, saw his father Chen Lin, who was waiting for him at home, and asked with some worry after telling the matter: "Father, the matter of books is just that, at most it is troublesome, but the king asked me to raise a thousand catties of iron, which is ...... I'm afraid there's something wrong, right? ”

Although he was instantly shocked when he first heard about this, after thinking about it, Chen Lin quickly calmed down. However, seeing his son's nervous appearance, Chen Lin also had the intention to teach him, so he raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? What's wrong? ”

"He, he's a prince, and he ...... six years ago"

"Bastard! Shut up! ”

Chen Lin was shocked when he heard this, and stood up sharply and scolded.

"Goo-dong!"

After swallowing a mouthful of foam with difficulty, even though he knew that there were only himself and his father in the room, Chen Zhi still subconsciously looked left and right, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming this. It was at this time that Chen Zhi suddenly found that his palms were completely soaked with sweat.

"Remember, never mention it again at this time!"

After glaring at his son fiercely, Chen Lin forcibly suppressed his anger and said: "And the matter of this king, do you think that if he really has other thoughts, he will ask you for a thousand catties of iron after only seeing one side?" Also, there are at least hundreds of people who came to Luzhou with him, and you dare to say that there is no ...... Ahem, in short, two hundred catties of iron material should be prepared as soon as possible, and sent to King Yu, and the rest ...... Just take your time with the rest and don't rush too much. ”

"Yes, the boy understands."

At this time, Chen Zhi finally came back to his senses and nodded immediately.

Think about it, how could the emperor who started by killing his brother and killing the first emperor let his other brothers go away? Even if you are good and I am good on the surface, but you know it with your ass, there must be someone staring at Li Yuanjia in secret! So unless this king is a fool, it is impossible to do anything unseemly with this iron material......

At least when I have only been in Luzhou for more than ten days, it will definitely not work.

"The ...... about collecting books for the king"

"Humph! Do you still need to ask about this? ”

Seeing his son's palpitating look, the corners of Chen Lin's eyes twitched twice, and he scolded with a look of hatred: "He is the king of Yu, and he is also the assassin of Luzhou, I don't know how many people can't get a tie when they want to, you have such a good opportunity and don't grasp it?" Go tell Chen Han and let him do his best to collect all kinds of ancient books and unique books......"

……

"King, in fact, it doesn't take so much to build an iron pot."

After listening to Li Yuanjia's words with Chen Zhi, beads of sweat almost broke out on Han Shan's head.

He knew that it was not easy to build an iron pot, and he also knew that in addition to the iron pot, his own king seemed to be preparing to let the blacksmith make a lot of things. But looking for someone to ask for a thousand catties of iron in one go, this number still scared Han Shan - it doesn't matter if it's in Chang'an City, but now that the king has taken office in Luzhou, this matter is a bit frightening.

"yes, I know."

Squinting his eyes slightly, Li Yuanjia nodded and smiled: "So later, I only needed two hundred catties, and the others would be fine for Chen Zhi to prepare slowly...... Ahem, I actually have a lot of things to build. ”

After sending Si Cang to join the army, he also felt that something was not appropriate.

Maybe it was too long to be suppressed in Chang'an City for three years, so after arriving in Luzhou and suddenly becoming the final boss, Li Yuanjia's mentality instantly relaxed. So at this time, he was also secretly warning himself, maybe this kind of relaxation is a good thing in a sense, but if he really thinks that he can do whatever he wants, it is to make trouble for himself......

Although he was still a little worried, Han Shan couldn't go on, so he quickly changed the topic and said, "King, the paper you want has been transported into the mansion, do you want to send you a study now?" ”

"Ouch, it's finally here?"

After hearing Han Shan's words, Li Yuanjia's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Hurry up, let them all move in immediately!" ”

"Yes, my lord."

Not long after he left the study, Han Shan quickly walked in with the two servants, but the two servants also carried a wooden box that looked heavy together, and carefully placed it on the ground before retreating.

Li Yuanjia opened it and took a look, and sure enough, it was the paper he wanted!

After taking out one sheet and pinching the thickness, and then looking at the light coming through the window, Li Yuanjia was a little disappointed in his heart - sure enough, the same as before, the quality of these papers has not improved at all, and both hardness and finish are still far behind.

It's just that at the same time that Li Yuanjia was disappointed, Han Shan watched him casually put the paper back in the box, but he couldn't help but feel distressed again.

The king of his own family is good at everything, but the daily life is too waste paper.

The best paper in these years is a luxury, but these expensive and hard-to-buy top-quality papers are often moved into Li Yuanjia's study in boxes, and then quickly consumed by him one by one. And every time he helps the king clean up, in addition to the traces of normal calligraphy practice and reading, Han Shan also has more strange patterns, most of which are the kind that can't understand what it is at all!

I've already saved up several big boxes of things like this.

Tsk, that's all money!

However, Li Yuanjia didn't know what his housekeeper was thinking, and in his heart, although he knew that paper was a luxury in this era, looking at these "inferior" white papers, it was really difficult for him to have the kind of thoughts that he had to cherish. So after checking the quality of the new paper, he nodded and said, "Okay, let's put it here...... By the way, old Han, go back and make me some willow charcoal ......"
