Du He carried the inferior gold medal, swaggered, walked out of the East Inner Garden, and prepared to pass through the Taiji Palace, and then leave the palace and return to the Laiguo Mansion.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of Taiji Palace, he was stopped by Zhao Yang.

It turned out that the most important thing for Zhao Yang in the past few days was not to serve Li Er, but to guard Du He.

Zhao Yang stepped forward, stopped Du He, and said, "Du Gongzi, Your Majesty has an order, you can still leave the palace now." ”

Du He sneered, "Really? ”

"Yes. Please Du Gongzi go back to the side hall to rest! ”

Zhao Yang looked businesslike.

Duhe lazily took out the gold medal.

Zhao Yang didn't care at first, but after taking a closer look, his eyes suddenly widened.

"This ...... Du Gongzi, this joke can't be made, you ...... Where did you get this gold medal? When Zhao Yang saw the gold medal, he stammered when he spoke.

When Du He saw this, he knew that this gold medal had an extraordinary origin.

"You don't need to know this, now, I can go out!"

"Of course, Du Gongzi, please!"

Zhao Yang hurriedly gave way and sent Du He away.

As soon as Du He left, Zhao Yang flew towards the Taiji Palace.

Du He held the gold medal, all the way unimpeded, along the way, but anyone who came forward to ask, saw the gold medal in his hand, all panicked.

At the gate of the imperial city, Zhonglang General Li Junxian looked at the back of Du He leaving, and said to himself with some anxiety: "This gold medal, which has not appeared for many years, suddenly appears now...... Could there be something big about it? ”

……

Tai Chi Temple.

Smack.

When Zhao Yang swaggered Du He out of the palace with the gold medal, Li Shuangzhong's signature pen was broken under his force.

Li Er stood up excitedly and grabbed Zhao Yang's collar: "Can you see clearly, it is indeed the gold medal that the Emperor Taishang won when he served as the Duke of Tang in the previous dynasty?" ”

Zhao Yang nodded affirmatively: "Your Majesty, the slave has served you for many years, and I have seen that gold medal a few times, and I am sure that it will not be wrong, and besides, Du He has gotten along well with the Emperor Taishang and his old man in the past two days, and that gold medal must have been given to Du He by the Emperor Taishang." ”

Li Er let go of Zhao Yang's collar and sat down on the revolving wooden chair.

"It's been seven years...... It's been seven years, and my father hasn't taken out this gold medal, so what does it mean to give Du He today? ”

Li Er's mood suddenly became stunned, and he no longer addressed the Emperor Tai, but called the familiar Father Emperor.

In June of the ninth year of Wude, the Xuanwumen Incident occurred, and Li Er cut down the crown prince Li Jiancheng and the king of Qi Li Yuanji in front of the Xuanwu Gate.

In August, Li Yuan announced his abdication.

Li Er ascended the throne.

On the day of his accession to the throne, Li Er announced in front of the civil and military officials that as long as the Emperor Li Yuan was willing, he could come back to be the emperor at any time, and even took a gold medal as a token, as long as the Emperor Li Yuan held the gold medal, he would be above him as the emperor.

In other words, as long as that gold medal appears, it will not even be easy for Li Er to speak.

Of course, Li Er knew that Li Yuan was disheartened at that time, and he did this just to appease people's hearts.

Seven years have passed, and indeed, Li Yuan has never taken out the gold medal.

As for the gold medal, the origin is very simple, it was a gold medal given by Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty when Li Yuan served as the Duke of Tang in the Sui Dynasty before the rebellion, and there was only one word on it: Tang.

After many years, Li Er almost forgot about it, who knew that the gold medal suddenly appeared and fell into Du He's hands.

Thinking of Du He's unreasonable style, Li Eryi had a headache for a while.

……

Du He returned to the Laiguo Mansion, and he didn't even have time to see Du Ruhui, so he hurried to the furniture factory first.

The most reassuring thing for Duhe is the furniture factory.

He first went to check the production of the revolving wooden chair.

Zhang Du was pleasantly surprised when he saw Du He.

In the past few days, Zhang Du has heard a lot about Du He being severely punished by Li Er and even being sent to the Lingnan area.

Zhang Du's biggest worry is that once Du He is finished, these craftsmen will also be finished.

At this moment, seeing Du He come back safe and sound, Zhang Du was very happy: "Young master, you are finally back." ”

Du He nodded: "Look at your worried look, Young Master Ben just went to the palace to live for a few days, it's not a big deal, and now the production of carousel chairs is still normal?" ”

Zhang Du hurriedly said: "Everything is normal, the wood is enough for the time being, I counted it this evening, we have now produced almost 150 carousel chairs, and our warehouse is almost out of stock." ”

Du He was very satisfied: "Yes, everyone is working hard, the warehouse can't be piled up, let the old man think of a way." Take me to the warehouse to see if the quality of the carousel chair produced is acceptable! ”

Under the leadership of Zhang Du, Du He came to the warehouse of the furniture factory, which was originally the warehouse of Yuan Tiangang's old house, and at this moment, it was full of revolving wooden chairs.

Du He randomly selected a dozen to check it and found that there was no problem with the quality.

Then he explained to Zhang Du again, and then he hurried to the book printing workshop.

In the past few days, although Du He was not there, the printing of "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" has not been delayed at all.

Wang Erniu said happily: "Young master, you are back, we printed and bound overnight, and now, more than 50 copies have been printed." ”

Du He picked up one of the books and opened it, of course, compared with the printing technology developed in later generations, there are still a lot of problems, not to mention the rough workmanship of the book, even the words inside, there are also problems such as unclear handwriting.

But it is much better than the previous engraving printing.

The point is, it's fast!

According to Du He's explanation, Wang Erniu and others printed more than 20 copies at a time every time they arranged a edition, and when all of them were printed, they were uniformly bound, and more than 20 books came out at once.

Moreover, as the number of movable type produced increased, two workers worked in a group, which greatly accelerated the speed of printing.

Du He said to Wang Erniu: "More than 50 copies, not enough, far from enough!" I'll give you a few more days to try to get to 300 copies. ”

Wang Erniu patted his chest and promised, "No problem, young master, we will definitely finish it." ”

Du He patted Wang Erniu's shoulder and asked, "The old man has paid everyone his salary on time in the past few days, right?" ”

As soon as Wang Erniu heard this, he immediately became happy: "The housekeeper has paid his salary every day, young master, you can rest assured." ”

Seeing that the furniture factory and the book printing workshop were all carried out in an orderly manner, Du He was relieved.

These two things are his initial capital accumulation, and if he messes up, the opportunity to make money can only be postponed.

It's not that Du He didn't want to make a fortune with the resources of the Lai Guo Mansion, but unfortunately, Du Ruhui is too poor, and the huge Lai Guo Mansion has not saved much silver in a year, and the gap between Du He's requirements is too big.

"It's still up to you......"

Du He muttered to himself.

Suddenly, hurried footsteps sounded outside.

The old man rushed to Du He, looked Du He up and down, and said happily: "Oh, young master, you're fine, it's really good!" The master is in the study, you better hurry up and meet him, since you were taken away, the master hasn't slept well these days. ”
