Chapter 164: An Awkward Situation
After Lin Sen cleaned up, Li Chengqian announced the decree first according to the usual practice. Anyway, he is also a person who has received the will many times, and he can basically understand it himself. The words praising him for his loyalty and patriotism were omitted, and what real benefits he was most concerned about were naturally in his hands.
His position as a loose official was naturally promoted again, and it was still the same as before, and he directly jumped two levels in a row to the rank of Captain Yilu on the seventh grade.
This is just a little longer for Lin Sen and a little more job, he doesn't care very much, anyway, he can't shake his position in Chang'an City.
However, for many people who are bent on drilling camps in the officialdom, this leap is of great significance, because between the seventh grade and the eighth grade and the ninth grade, it is a watershed for officials, and it is also a gap that many people cannot cross in their lifetime.
And Lin Sen crossed over so simply, which shows that the emperor attaches great importance to him, after all, the military officer of the same grade is already at the level of Xunwei or the prince's personal guard, and many military masters who have been in battle for a long time have been able to reach this level after making many military achievements.
This is also the starting point that many direct children of martial arts nobles dream of, and those who can get this position at Lin Sen's age have to be the sons of those close ministers of the Son of Heaven, so it can be seen that Lin Sen's treatment is definitely not bad.
Then it is the content that Lin Sen is most concerned about, this time Li Shimin still gave a full thirty hectares of land very generously, and the efficiency is quite high, and he directly brought the title deeds together.
After carefully recalling that location, Lin Sen finally determined that the only valuable thing in that piece of land was actually only a mature mulberry forest, and the others were no different from the wasteland, after all, the temple properties confiscated by the pagoda temple last time had already been divided, and it was impossible to leave it for Lin Sen to be rewarded until now.
However, the location of the new land is not bad, as long as it is reclaimed, it will not be worse than Lin Sen's existing two pieces of land, but it will take a little more effort.
And there is also an advantage that the land is also quite close to the Lin family's Zhuangzi, but it is just a different mountain, and it should be that the entire mountain should be assigned to Lin Sen.
probably felt that such a land was a little sorry for the good things Lin Sen gave, and Li Shimin also gave some more physical rewards, a set of Mingguang armor for the palace guards and a hundred steel knives, as well as a few tribute silks, which can be regarded as an honor for Lin Sen.
In addition, Li Shimin even crowned Lin Sen a lord, two levels higher than his loose officials, and was a cloud cavalry captain on the seventh grade.
The key thing is that with this, Lin Sen has officially stepped into the ranks of the nobility, which is not only a kind of compensation, compensation for the lack of land in the land where Lin Sen was rewarded, but also his knowledge of giving up his prestige, of course, it is also to show the importance of Li Shimin, the newly rising mountain boy.
The meaning is very clear, this is to give everyone a signal that I am optimistic about this kid, so that everyone can understand that Lin Sen is really Jane in the emperor's heart.
Lin Sen saluted earnestly and thanked him, and then carefully put away this holy decree, even the armor and silk with the reward.
That's all there is to it, mainly because he doesn't need it now, so it's just a matter of making it for the time being.
But Lin Sen really attaches great importance to this holy decree, because this time is different from the past, it was written by Li Shimin himself, and the beautiful flying white body is not something that anyone can imitate.
After Li Chengqian pointed out this, Lin Sen secretly made up his mind that he must pass on this holy decree from generation to generation.
In the future generations, there is such a clean origin, orderly inheritance of the holy purpose, I am afraid that it is enough to pick a house within the third ring of the imperial capital, and I am afraid that it is not a big problem to change the courtyard and come back, it is definitely a priceless treasure.
The group of servants around Li Chengqian were still very satisfied with Lin Sen's cherished and valued attitude, and it was rare that they didn't pick and choose Lin Sen's many unruly behaviors, and they turned a blind eye and passed.
Li Chengqian still didn't leave in a hurry, but had a good chat with Lin Sen again. Seeing it like this, I really want to be close to Lin Sen.
"It's not difficult to see from this incident how determined those people are, and I think you shouldn't continue to be silent." Li Chengqian once again praised Lin Sen's lecture, and did not hesitate to praise him for his rich knowledge and extensive knowledge, and the meaning of his words was also obvious, he was encouraging Lin Sen that it was time to fight back.
"Yes, beating snakes and hitting seven inches, since everyone has bullied the door, it is obviously not possible to just kill some puppies, and the horseman is angry and splashes blood for five steps, and it is difficult to eliminate this anger if you don't beat them."
Since there is the emperor behind him, he clearly wants him to charge into battle, Lin Sen himself also wants to have a good idea, and if he doesn't put the family together, he will be sorry for himself.
Although there is not much he can do for the time being, according to Li Chengqian's intention last time, publishing those two books on Mongolian studies and letting more people see them should be regarded as the best counterattack to them at present.
If you want to push them forward at that time, Li Er should give them some convenience, but you can't expect too much if you think about it.
What's more, the cost of this printing itself is not small, because now it is the engraving printing technology used, and the engraving page by page wants to be made, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive and labor-intensive, in other words, it is costly.
The key is that this engraving is not said to be once and for all, the woodblock is worn, coupled with the influence of oil stains, I am afraid that it will not be clear if I print more, if I want to print a large number of plates, I don't know how many sets of the same engraving plate to make.
So to put it simply, printing books is an extremely expensive thing, which is why many scholars rarely publish a book in their lifetime, and even if they do, it is often so limited that it cannot be seen by everyone.
It's not that all of them cherish themselves, and they are reluctant to let people see it, and there are still some people who want to leave a name in history, but there are still some people who want to spread their expositions all over the world, but their net worth can't support such consumption.
In particular, those large tomes can only be printed with the support of the state, and then they are often shelved and difficult to publish, and most of them are based on this reason. Ordinary people can't afford it.
Although the content of Lin Sen's two books is not very long, the key is that he wants to print a lot, and he wants more people to see it, the price can't be high, and ordinary people are not willing to spend a lot of money to buy a book from him.
Those who can afford to spend a lot of money are often from home school, I am afraid that there is no need to rely on other people's books to enlighten, and people who have no inheritance want to learn by themselves, and often cannot afford to spend a lot of money.
Otherwise, why is the cultural knowledge of Datang only in the hands of a very small number of people at this time, and the poor students are extremely limited.
But the situation Lin Sen is facing is a little embarrassing, the cost of this gas will be very high, and it can't be expensive, that is to say, it is purely to make money by himself, I am afraid that with his current value, even if he smashes it all, it will be difficult to make many waves.
