In the following time, Song Kai moved all the important things in the tea garden to Hongchen Island, after all, it was much safer here, and as for the simple hot air balloon, it was also left on Hongchen Island.

The caravan had left, the people who should have left had left, and the figures in the tea garden had become sparse again.

Sixty fishermen selected by Ge Shou stayed, Song Kai let them learn to grow tea and raise silkworms, this is to hone their temperament, although these people are essentially honest fishermen, but in the end they have been in the Taihu Gang for a period of time, who knows if they will cheat and cheat.

After arranging the affairs of the tea garden and Hongchen Island, Song Kai returned to Suzhou City again, this time, he needed to go to Suzhou City to buy clay.

In fact, for movable type printing books, Song Kai has long wanted to make them, but there has been no time and no funds before, and although there are not many funds now, Song Kai does not want to delay any longer.

Movable type printing books are definitely a landmark invention, before the Song Dynasty, books were expensive, in addition to the fact that papermaking technology was not too advanced, and the paper was expensive, the most important thing was the problem of book printing.

Now the most advanced printing means is engraving printing, a page of paper, after engraving, you can only print this book, such as printing the engraving of the Book of Songs, you can only print the Book of Songs, so that a lot of resources are wasted.

Movable type printing books are made of clay to make seals, each seal is engraved into a character, and all the seals can be arranged and combined at will, so that after a book has been printed, these seals can be removed and reassembled into other pages to continue printing.

It's a simple change. But it is to bring the printing press to life. The reason why the Song Dynasty became a period of cultural explosion. It definitely has a lot to do with the invention of movable type printing books.

Sitting in a small boat, rocking all the way to the city.

When I went ashore, I just stepped into the door of Hongchen Inn when I heard a quarrel upstairs.

"Don't you want to live anymore, my general invited you to eat and drink, and you dared to refuse!" The voice sounded, with a bit of arrogance.

When Song Kai heard this voice, he hurriedly ran upstairs. I saw a man in a gray robe and a Tang knife in his hand, pointing at Qiu Yue and shouting loudly.

Song Kai thought about it, today is the day when Chunyanlou came to the store to perform.

"What's going on!" Song Kai walked over and asked loudly.

Qiu Yue hugged the pipa and was slightly relieved to see Song Kai coming.

When the gray-clothed man saw Song Kai, he snorted and said, "Song Kai, you came just in time, our general Crepe wants to invite this singing Qinglou woman into the box for a drink." But this woman dared not to give face to General Crepe, isn't our General Crepe the owner of this inn! ”

Song Kai listened to this. frowned, and said: "So that's the case, this Lang Jun, I'm going to see General Crepe, this is an inn, it is not only my inn, but also General Crepe's inn, it's not good to make a lot of noise." ”

The gray-clothed man looked arrogant, just nodded, and said, "Come with me." ”

Song Kai shook his head gently towards Qiu Yue, signaling her not to move around, and not to be afraid, so he followed the man in gray into an extra-luxurious box.

In the box, Crepe Dongliang was lying on the window, holding a wine glass in his hand, and his beard under his mouth was stained with oil.

"Haha, Song Lang is here, come on, sit down and have a drink," Crepe Dongliang laughed.

Song Kai arched his hand, a sense of disgust arose in his heart, but he was helpless, he said: "General Crepe, that girl is an artist girl I paid a lot of money to invite, she is the signboard of our store, and some tempers are normal, please forgive General Crepe." ”

Xuan Dongliang glanced at Song Kai obliquely, "You mean, I can't afford to mess with her?" ”

Song Kai hurriedly smiled and said: "General Crepe, what are you talking about, the entire Suzhou City is yours, how can there be anyone you can't afford to provoke, not to mention that the other party is just a woman in a Qinglou who is proud of herself." I mean, for such a woman, it affects the fortune of our inn, and it's not worth it. What's more, in front of everyone's eyes, general, you are a bit face-losing if you are scheming with such a woman. ”

Xuan Dongliang laughed and said: "Okay, that's right, General Ben, I love money, as for this woman, when she is useless, General Ben personally went to the Qinglou and asked for her body." Hahahaha. ”

Song Kai sweated on his forehead, but he still arched his hand and said, "Then, general, Song will withdraw first and appease the woman." ”

"Go, go, go," said Katsutora, waving his hand casually.

Out of the box, Song Kai clenched his fists, depressed in his heart, 1, Lao Tzu crossed over, and finally went through this experience, and you still have to be angry? Wait for Lao Tzu to earn some capital, and then leave Suzhou City, and when you leave, you must be killed with a bomb!

Walking to the stage depressed, Song Kai said in a low voice: "Miss Qiuyue, I'm really sorry for making you frightened just now." ”

Qiu Yue shook her head and sat on the stool, "I know that person, the whole city is afraid of her, and our old mother is also afraid of death, I am afraid that he will go to Chunyan Building one day, kill the old mother, and be the master of Chunyan Tower." ”

Song Kai sighed, "Yes, this person is really hateful to bring disaster to Suzhou City, but it's a pity that no one can control him." ”

"Song Lang doesn't have to blame himself, the little woman is a Qinglou person, I've seen a lot of these scenes, you go and get busy, the little woman will sing some more tunes, sing some tunes you gave." Qiu Yue nodded towards Song Kai, no surprise or joy.

Song Kai said "um" and said, "After singing, don't be in a hurry to go back, come to the backyard first, I have something to say to you." ”

After speaking, Song Kai turned his head and left.

Today is the big day of Hongchen Inn, every time the girl from Chunyanlou comes to Hongchen Inn to perform songs and dances, it is a big day for Hongchen Inn to be disappointed.

It seems that being famous is also a mistake.

Otherwise, there are so many inns in the entire Suzhou City, and Xuan Dongliang will not go anywhere, but he will come to the Hongchen Inn, which is really unlucky.

Qiu Yue hugged the pipa, feeling a little sad in her heart, and sang the song of the Hongchen Inn again.

"The story of Hongchen is called care

The sealing knife is hidden under the east fence of ordinary people's homes

Xianyun Yehe Ancient Temple

Fast horses fight in the rivers and lakes

It's nothing more than fame and fortune that can't be let go

How can a person who has the country in his heart be happy and chic

I just want to be with you

The sword is out of the sheath, who laughs

All I want is to embrace you in my arms today

The wind in the red dust inn is like a knife, and the rain falls on fate

Whoever leads the way in Wulin, I only bend my waist for you

Cross the wild bridge in the deserted village to find the ancient road outside the world

Far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, the catkins flutter in the hands of the son

The window lattices under the eaves reflect the branches obliquely

Sit across from you for tea

I'll write you down with a fine stroke

The pen is not elegant

Under the lamp, sigh red and nearly sunset

I said that fate is the same as going to Zen and not speaking

Your tears are like pear blossoms sprinkled all over the world on the paper

Love and hate are like freehand landscape paintings

The sword is out of the sheath, who laughs

All I want is to embrace you in my arms today

The wind in the red dust inn is like a knife, and the rain falls on fate

Whoever leads the way in Wulin, I only bend my waist for you

Cross the wild bridge in the deserted village to find the ancient road outside the world

Far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, the catkins flutter in the hands of the son

Whoever leads the way in Wulin, I only bend my waist for you

How delicate you look back, I smile with tears in my eyes......"

There was a commotion in the inn, and not many people cared about this song that they didn't understand very well, and this song was really a little weird. There is no metric. The speed of speech is too fast. The music heard in the music square and Qinglou on weekdays is really very different.

It's just that in a window seat on the first floor, a woman who was eating back to the pot was stupid, her pale fingers trembled slightly, and with a "snap", the chopsticks were directly folded into two pieces.

Song Kai, who was talking to Qingniang, heard a voice. Subconsciously looked sideways, and saw that the woman had already lowered her head.

Song Kai didn't take it seriously, and said to Qing Niang: "Qing Niang, that crepe Dongliang hasn't troubled you these days." ”

Qingniang shook her head, "No, he doesn't come every day. ”

"That's good, by the way, don't do it for now, let Cuilan manage the accounts, you follow me to learn something." Song Kaidao.

Qingniang laughed and clapped her hands happily. "Great, I can finally learn from Lang Jun."

Song Kai nodded.

While he was still talking, a woman's voice sounded, "Excuse me, is there any room available?" ”

Qing Niang shook her head, "It's gone." ”

Song Kai turned his head sideways, and when he saw that it was the woman who broke the chopsticks just now, he didn't care, and said casually: "Qingniang, Nie Niangzi's house can be rented out, she has already left." ”

Qingniang said "oh" and said: "Then, there is another room, which is two dollars a day, pay the money first, and then move in." ”

"You're a black shop?" The woman asked rhetorically.

Qing Niang was not angry, and said with a smile: "If you go back to the lady, our inn is a major feature of Suzhou City, and if you stay, please forgive me for this price." ”

The woman nodded, reached out and rummaged in her arms, took out a small gold ingot, and said, "Take me to see the room." ”

"Okay."

Qingniang walked out, Song Kai asked Cuilan to keep the account, and walked to the backyard with Qingniang.

Nie Niangzi's room is next to Song Kai's room.

Song Kai pointed to the room and said, "That's your room, if the lady is not satisfied, you can return it." ”

The woman didn't say anything, just walked into the room and locked the door.

"Qing Niang, do you know how to engrave?" Song Kai asked.

Qing Niang shook her head, and then nodded, "Lang Jun can teach me." ”

Song Kai laughed, "I won't, but tomorrow I will take you to a master who can carve and learn together." ”

Qing Niang nodded, then shook her little hand and said, "Lang Jun, you ...... Do you still tell stories? ”

"The story? Ah, oh, okay, I'll tell you the story later, and then the young lady will write the story, print it in a book, and sell it, how about it? Song Kai asked with a smile.

Qingniang clapped her hands, "Okay, okay, Lang Jun, you can continue to tell me the story of the Thousand and One Nights now......"

Song Kai sat down, and also let Qingniang sit down by herself, and under the warm sun, Song Kai continued to tell Qingniang the ethereal story. (To be continued......)
