Chapter 98: Couplet (2 more)
"Good! All right! Hahaha! Receiving the paper sent by Sun Ce, Cai Yong was so excited that he burst into tears, and then laughed again.
"Daddy?" Cai Yan heard Cai Yong's laughter, ran in, and looked at his father crying and laughing, very puzzled in his heart, what is going on?
"Yan'er? It's Yan'er! Cai Yong's face couldn't hide a smile, "Yan'er, come on!" Look, this is something from your brother Bo Fu! ”
"What's that?" Cai Yan was very puzzled, what was it that made Cai Yong so happy.
"Paper!" Cai Yong said, "Look at this paper, compared with Cai Hou paper, the writing is smoother, and, according to Bo Fu's letter, the cost of this paper is far lower than Cai Hou paper, and the output is much higher than Cai Hou paper!" ”
"Really?" Although Cai Yan is still young, he can also understand what this means.
"Of course it's true, this is a letter written by your brother Bo Fu, don't you still believe it?" As he spoke, Cai Yong handed the letter written to him by Sun Ce to Cai Yan.
Cai Yan hurriedly looked at it, and then pouted: "Hmph! Brother Bo Fu doesn't even think about others! There was not a word of mention of people! ”
"Hahahaha!" Seeing Cai Yan like this, Cai Yong laughed again, "Your brother Bofu hasn't forgotten you!" What do you see this is? ”
Saying that, Cai Yong handed over the poem that Sun Ce wrote to Cai Yan alone.
"Daddy, you're bad!" Cai Yan said coquettishly, and then couldn't wait to tear the letter open, only to see that it read:
Last night's stars and last night's wind, the west side of the painting building and the east of Guitang. There are no colorful phoenix wings, and there is a little bit of wisdom in the heart.
"Good! Good poetry! Cai Yan was still reminiscing about what was written in the poem, but Cai Yong shouted directly from the side.
"Daddy!" Cai Yan's face turned red, this was obviously a love poem written by Sun Ce to Cai Yan, but now it was looked at by Cai Yong. Cai Yan hurriedly took the love poem and ran away.
"Hahahaha!" Seeing Cai Yan like this, Cai Yong laughed directly again.
"Bo Fu, Bo Fu, it's not simple......" Cai Yan ran away, and Cai Yong muttered to himself alone.
……
Soon, the gold signboard of the paper was also given by Liu Hong - the first paper in the world!
And Sun Ce handed over everything to Guo Jia, and he was idle at home. As for Mi Zhu, after receiving Sun Ce's news, he quickly rushed to Shouchun to discuss with Sun Ce about the sales of this elixir and jade liquid and the world's first paper. Sun Ce was not stingy, and directly handed over these two industries to Mi Zhu to take care of, and Lu Su wanted to load the goods, but he could only find Mi Zhu!
For a time, Mi Zhu and even Mi Jia became the hottest family in the business world! Mi Zhu is naturally happy to keep her mouth shut.
"The Divine Decree has arrived!"
On this day, the Sun family ushered in a small yellow door.
Although Sun Jian was reluctant, he was still respectfully ready to accept the order. The holy decree is the holy decree of appointing Sun Jian as the pastor of Yangzhou. Due to Liu Yan's opinion, Liu Hong had already decreed the abolition of the history of the assassination and the use of the state pastor instead!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Sun Jian received the holy decree, and his heart was very excited, the first territory in his hands!
"This father-in-law has worked hard, this little meaning is not respectful!" As he spoke, Sun Ce handed the little yellow door two gold ingots.
"Hehe, it's still Hou Ye who is reasonable!" Xiao Huangmen was overjoyed, and hurriedly put away the two gold ingots, then looked around, led Sun Ce aside, and whispered, "Lord Zhang told the He family that as long as He Jin doesn't like it, he will look at it pleasing to the eye, and the previous thing was done by He Jin, so Lord Zhang must help Hou Ye!" ”
"So, thank you Lord Zhang!" Sun Ce understood in his heart, and said with a smile, "Father-in-law will stay in Shouchun for one night first, and tomorrow Ce will have a generous gift for Master Zhang, and I will bother my father-in-law to take it back!" ”
"Well said, well said!" Xiao Huangmen smiled and nodded.
Xiao Huangmen left, and Sun Ce's face sank: "Sure enough! What happened last time was really He Jin's doing! ”
Sun Ce's conjecture was not wrong, those dead soldiers last time were indeed He Jin's handiwork! However, this also surprised Sun Ce very much, this He Jin secretly raised so many dead soldiers, and in order to get rid of him, he did not hesitate to spend such a big price!
And, more importantly, is there any dead soldier in He Jin's hands, and is there any unknown power in his hands?
Sun Ce shook his head, He Jin was a mortal person, he knew this, so he didn't want to worry about anything with He Jin now! The New Year is approaching, and all Sun Ce has to think about now is to accompany his family and how to spend this year!
"Huh?" Sun Ce suddenly thought that at this time, there didn't seem to be a couplet! So he decisively went to the paper mill, printed and dyed a few pieces of red paper, and cut them into long strips.
When he returned home, Sun Ce picked up a pen and wrote on paper:
Welcome the New Year and everything goes well, and take Hongfu step by step.
"What is this?" Sun Quan happened to pass by Sun Ce's study at this time, and saw what his brother was writing, so he walked in curiously.
"This thing is called a couplet, also called a couplet. This is the upper link, this is the lower link, which can be regarded as a kind of yin and yang dualism. This dualistic ideology of yin and yang has a long origin, and the hexagram symbols in the Book of Changes, that is, are composed of yin and yang. Sun Ce opened his mouth to explain the origin of the couplet, of course, this was also the previous life he accidentally saw in his leisure time, as for the more, he couldn't remember.
"So why is this the upper link and this the lower link?" Sun Quan was puzzled.
"Hehe, this is according to the battle, the word is good, the word is the sound, and the height of the climb is the sound of the peace, so the upper link is to welcome the New Year and everything is good, and the next link is to take Hongfu step by step!" Sun Ce said.
"And what are those four words?" Sun Quan looked at the four words that Sun Ce had just written, which was good luck, and asked.
"This is called a horizontal batch, it is pasted on the door, according to the order of the horizontal batch writing, the upper and lower couplets of the couplet also have his posting order, you see, my horizontal batch is written from left to right, then the upper link is on the left, and the lower link is on the right!" Sun Ce explained slowly.
"I see!" Sun Quan suddenly realized, "But isn't it our habit to read from right to left?" ”
"That's right, in that case, I just need to write this horizontal batch in reverse, and that's it, you see, like this, write the horizontal batch from right to left, then the upper link will be on the right, and the lower link will be on the left!" Sun Ce said with a smile.
"I see!" Sun Quan nodded, indicating that he understood.
"In fact, the couplet is very simple, most of the above are auspicious words, it's fine, but pay attention to the neatness of the battle, and pay more attention to the level! So, how to say, this thing will not be difficult, will it be difficult! Sun Ce smiled slightly.
"I understand big brother!" Sun Quan nodded thoughtfully.
