Chang'an, the morning meeting of October 1 of the ninth year of Wude,

"Have you completed the autumn harvest in various places? Are there any places affected? This sentence is the first question Li Shimin asks every morning during this time. It seems that if you don't ask like this, it can't reflect the emperor's attention to the autumn harvest, and it may be written into history by historians, so Li Shimin asked with a serious face:

"Back to Your Majesty, the autumn harvest has been completed in various places, and no one has been affected." The left servant shot Fei Lin out of the class and played:

"Very good, how is the harvest? Whether someone has been sent to check on it. Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction:

"The supervision of the imperial history has gone to various places to check, the harvest is very good, the effect of three crops of rice planting is obvious, this is the second season, an average of three stones in one season, Shuzhong, Jiangnan and other places have written to thank the saints." Fei Lin went on to report:

"Three stones? How much is Shuofang? Tell me about it. Li Shimin asked:

"Hui Sheng, I just received a report from Shuo Fang that Shuo Fang rice yields five stones per mu and beans yield three stones and five stones per mu," Sun Wuji, the head of the household department, said:

"Five stones? How is this possible? ”

"yes, Goshi, how did you do it!"

"It can't be a false report." For a while, the ministers were talking.

"Why Shuo Fang can get to Wushi, is it for the local officials not to work hard, or Shuo Fang has a good way, ask clearly, all over the country to learn it, if it succeeds, my Datang can increase fifty percent of the income, and the people will not be hungry." Li Shimin is very satisfied with his prospective son-in-law, and has been giving himself face, but his face is still serious:

"Sage, I beg to see you," a little eunuch hurriedly came in from outside and trotted into the ear of Eunuch Li Shimin, and then Eunuch Sili whispered to Li Shimin:

"Oh, pass him into the hall," Li Shimin was stunned and surprised:

"Master Hou said that there are some things that I want to move to the main hall." The celebrant eunuch to:

"Quasi," Li Shimin nodded at the corner of his mouth slightly: It seems that his prospective son-in-law wants to surprise himself, and he is really looking forward to it.

"Minister, Feng Daiwen see the saint, the saint Wan'an." Feng Daiwen strode into the main hall and saluted loudly: a group of guards behind him carried a few large boxes and placed them on the ground at the entrance of the main hall.

When the ministers saw Feng Daiwen carrying so many boxes into the main hall, they all talked about it. Only a few people who knew Feng Daiwen had expectations in their eyes.

"Aiqing is exempt, Aiqing is back in Chang'an, but there is something wrong with Shuo Fang?" Li Shimin asked:

"Back to the saints, Shuofang has nothing to do, the Turks are not divided in internal fighting, and the ministers return to Chang'an to report on their work and invite people." Feng Daiwen to:

"Oh, who is Aiqing going to invite?" Li Shimin was puzzled:

"Chen originally wanted to invite a few well-educated people to Shuofang to educate the party, but no one is willing to go so far," Feng Daiwen said with a wry smile:

Hearing Feng Daiwen speak, several people in the hall bowed their heads embarrassedly, because Feng Daiwen wrote to ask them to arrange for someone to serve as a sacrificial wine, but the Bogu Hall that sorted out the ancient books was really more attractive, and they all wanted to leave their names through this matter, and there were still people there who were willing to go to Shuofang.

"Why is that?" Li Shimin asked:

"Wechen doesn't know, so this time Wechen brought a batch of gifts, and planned to invite a group of poor children to teach Shuofang children." Feng Daiwen shook his head and said:

"Oh. What kind of gift is it? Li Shimin knew that the main drama was coming, so he couldn't help leaning forward and asked:

"Shuofang craftsmen have painstakingly developed and improved Caihou paper, and finally made a large amount of white paper," Feng Daiwen said as he opened a few boxes, took out a stack of them, and handed them to the eunuch Si Li, and at the same time asked people to distribute the contents of the boxes to everyone.

"Yes, it's much better than Cai Hou paper, and it's smooth and tough," one person took the paper and looked at it and admired:

"It's worse than rice paper," said another person. All of a sudden, all the princes of the court were exchanging views with each other.

"Hou Ye's improvement of Cai Hou paper is really a dozen fortunate things for the world's readers, may I ask Hou Ye, how much did you just say a lot?" Kong Yida, the priest of the country, asked:

"How much? There are not many, this time I brought 50,000 back to Chang'an," Feng Daiwen blinked his eyes:

"Fifty thousand? It's all so big," Kong Yida's eyes were about to bulge and asked, and there was also a sound of inhalation in the main hall, you must know that in Chang'an, a hundred pieces of rice paper of the same size cost five dollars

"No, it's only 10,000 sheets," Feng Daiwen said embarrassedly: it turned out that in order to save the procedure, he wanted to cut how big the person who needed to write needed to cut it himself.

"Oh," Kong Yida thought that the other papers were cut smaller than this, and he breathed a sigh of relief:

"For the convenience of everyone, the rest is not cut, and you need to cut it yourself." Feng Daiwen took out a stack from a box, opened it and handed it to Kong Yida:

Kong Yida was stunned and took the one-meter-square paper handed over by Feng Daiwen, so he didn't come up for a sigh of relief, and he almost couldn't come back to his senses. Can you speak without saying it in a single paragraph?

"Feng Aiqing, I don't know how much this paper costs," Li Shimin looked at the always serious Kong Yida who was out of shape now, and asked:

"Back to the saint, this cost plus wages and freight should have the cost of five wen a piece, of course, the minister said that it is a big one." Feng Dawen explains:

"Ah," came the sound of a toothache inhaling from the entire hall.

"This, it's true," Kong Yida stammered as he looked at the stack of papers in his hand in disbelief and asked:

"Kong Lao, of course this is true, of course, if it is shipped to a distant place, it will definitely be a little more expensive, but this time the lower official brought some of the craftsmen back to Chang'an, planning to build a new workshop in Wannian County. After all, the grassland people can't write, and Shuofang's paper can only be used by the locals, and the officials can't make money. Feng Daiwen smiled and said:

"Haha, haha" Everyone in the court was amused by Feng Daiwen's words,

"Before Wei Guo, he used new paper to support Bogutang to sort out ancient books, but it was shipped back this time." Li Gang smiled at Feng Daiwen and said:

"No, this is used by the lower officials to hire scholars from poor families to teach and educate people in Shuofang," Feng Daiwen said without hesitation:

"That, that, Wei Guoshuo Fang has recently shipped paper to Chang'an," Li Gang was dumbfounded:

"No, most of the Shuofang craftsmen were brought to Chang'an by me, and Shuofang will only produce a small part for local use in the future, and Chang'an will build a workshop here, at least after the year." Feng Dawen explains:

"Then there are so many here, let's take some of them out," Li Gang frowned:

"No, there are still a few schools to be used in Wannian County, and some of them are also used in the country, some of them are also used in the palace, and some of them are also used in the court. Feng Daiwen raised his eyebrows: It's not okay to want to empty the white wolf,

"Haha, don't embarrass Gong Li for Weiguo, we will arrange for some disciples to go to Shuofang, and let the saved ones be given to Bogutang." Yan Shigu smiled and said to relieve Li Gang: This old man can see that Feng Daiwen is a little dissatisfied with Li Gang and others, and he also heard that Feng Daiwen did not invite people, and even the children of the poor family who originally said that they were arranged to Shuofang were called by Bogutang to help.

"Yan Lao opened his mouth, how can he share a part of the profit," Feng Daiwen said respectfully to Yan Shigu:

"Haha, the old man will admit it," Yan Shigu looked at Feng Daiwen so well and understood people's feelings, and nodded with a smile and a smile:
