In the busy printing plant, a tall middle-aged man shouted loudly, while stretching out his only one-arm to direct the people around him to speed up.

"Sun Tou, don't rush when you are old, who doesn't know that our typesetting group is the busiest, and our group has been working for five hours in a row, except for eating and going to the thatched house, there is no rest time at all, I can't stand it anymore, you have to let us go back to sleep for a while, otherwise this will be blind!" A tall and thin young man replied without raising his head, and at the same time his hands quickly picked at the wooden type.

Liu Xiucai is not a real Xiucai, after all, if he can be admitted to Xiucai, he will not come to work in this printing workshop, but this young man surnamed Liu has read a few sage books, and he is considered a learned person in the entire printing house, plus he looks good, so people who know him give him the nickname of Xiucai. In this printing plant, Liu Xiucai is the leader of the typesetting group, with seven or eight literate people who are responsible for printing and typesetting.

"Alright, alright, you guys hurry up and arrange the last few remaining sheets, and I'll let you rest right away!" The one-armed middle-aged man surnamed Sun shouted loudly, he is the manager of this factory, he used to be born in the army, he lost an arm on the battlefield, and was arranged to work in the printing house, he was fair, and he also cares about his subordinates very much, and he will never urge his subordinates so much, but this batch of Buddhist scriptures to be printed is pressed down from above, in case the printing is not finished, then he can not afford to bear the guilt.

"Sun Tou, our Royal Highness has always been very generous, this batch of live urging is so tight, if we can complete it on time, will there be additional rewards?" At this moment, a worker next to him who was inking the printing board spoke. As soon as his words came out, they immediately attracted a big discussion among other people in the factory.

This is a printing shop under Li Su's name. Sun Tou, Liu Xiucai and others are all workers in one of the factories of the printing factory, since they received an order from the top a few days ago to let them print a large number of Buddhist scriptures, the people in their factory have not had a good rest, and they are working overtime all day, but even so, the time given by the boss still feels tight.

Seeing that his subordinates were busy with the work at hand because of the discussion of rewards, Sun Tou's face sank. knocked on the table next to him and shouted: "Okay, let's stop discussing, today I will give you a quasi-letter, the above has already said, as long as this batch of Buddhist scriptures is completed on time, this month's bonus will be doubled, this is what His Royal Highness personally promised!" ”

As soon as the people in the factory heard that it was promised by His Royal Highness King Qi himself, they all immediately cheered, and they felt that their whole bodies were full of enthusiasm all of a sudden, and at the same time, they were thinking about how to spend the extra double bonus? It's to buy a big bag of snacks for the kids at home plus a few new clothes. Or do you want to pull a few feet of good cloth and make a dress for your own lady?

Seeing the workers in the factory, they suddenly raised their energy. The one-armed grandson also breathed a sigh of relief, as a steward, his salary was naturally much higher than that of ordinary workers, and when this month's salary was doubled, he would have scraped together enough money for fifty yuan, and he had a brother in the army who was now raising money to buy a sea ship, and he could invest the money in him at that time. As long as the other party can run safely on the sea a few times, then the fifty times will be able to earn back, and the dividends in the future will all be net earnings.

Just when Sun Tou was happily calculating the huge benefits of investing in sea vessels. Suddenly, I heard a sound of talking outside, and it was very familiar, and one of them seemed to be the voice of the king's steward. The so-called Wang Steward is exactly what the outside world calls Wang Zihao, but really counted, Wang Zihao is not a person from the palace, and a free businessman, but because he is deeply trusted by Li Su, he is in charge of the business of the Qi Palace, and his daughter is Li Su's man, so he has long been regarded as a person from the Qi Palace, and this chief steward is only an honorific title, and none of the other chief stewards of the palace can compare with him.

Hearing that it was the voice of Wang Da's manager, Sun Tou naturally didn't dare to slack off, and just wanted to go out to meet him, but he didn't expect the door of the factory to be dark, and he saw Wang Zihao walking in with a group of people, and introduced him to the young man next to him while walking.

Seeing the young man beside Wang Zihao, Sun Tou immediately trembled, and hurriedly stepped forward a few times and saluted: "Sun Hong, the steward of the printing house, meet His Royal Highness King Qi and Wang Daste!" ”

can let Wang Zihao accompany him in person, and he also introduced it in person, naturally only Li Su is the only one. A few days ago, he proposed to Li Shimin to support Buddhism in Tibet, and then provoke foreign Buddhism to fight with the local Bon, so as to achieve the goal of making the political situation in Tibet unstable, but since he wants to support Buddhism, Buddhist scriptures and Buddha statues are naturally indispensable, and the printing house under his name is only printing a small part of the Buddhist scriptures, and all the others are outsourced to other printing houses.

"Steward Sun doesn't have to be polite, this king and Mr. Wang are just walking around!" Li Su said with a smile, he is not idle and has nothing to do, because the idea was his idea, and he is the most prestigious in the industrial and commercial industry, so he is responsible for the procurement of Buddhist scriptures, Buddha statues, magic utensils and other things to be prepared, and the time is extremely tight, so he has to come down to inspect it, for fear of delaying the big event.

Li Su took a turn in the factory, because it was not the first time he had come here, so the workers knew that this was His Royal Highness the King of Qi in front of them, but Li Su did not let them salute, but asked them to hurry up and work, and also promised on the spot that as long as they could finish it ahead of schedule, such as one day in advance, the bonus would be doubled this month, and it would be doubled two days in advance, and so on.

As soon as Li Zhuo's reward came out, he immediately made the workers in the factory boil again, all of them were full of green light, and the work efficiency was improved a lot again, such as the typesetting Liu Xiucai, he couldn't wait in his heart to become a three-headed and six-armed Nezha, as for the rest that he mentioned to Sun Tou just now, he was all thrown aside, and he could rest at any time, but this kind of opportunity to make money is rare, if you don't catch it, I'm sorry for myself.

Seeing this extremely busy factory, Li Su nodded with satisfaction, although the worker's bonus was nothing in his opinion, but for these ordinary people, it was a great incentive. It's just that Li Su didn't expect that it was his trick of doubling the bonus one day in advance that made the entire printing house seem crazy, and there were even a few cases of workers fainting due to physical exhaustion, which reduced work efficiency, which can be described as self-defeating.

"Wow~" Carriages are unloading goods into the open space, these goods are dusty, all of them are small Buddha statues, and because of the limited time, plus cost savings, these Buddha statues are all made of clay, and a small part is carved from wood, of course, there are more advanced ones, such as made of metal and jade, but those are very few, and they are not with these clay Buddha statues.

After these clay Buddha statues are transported here, there will be people who apply a layer of cheap incense powder on the Buddha statues, and then color them and wrap them with straw, after all, this is to be transported to Tibet, and there will inevitably be some bumps on the road, and the straw can be wrapped to prevent collisions.

After Li Su inspected the printing house, he came here to take a look, and found that the progress was not bad, and it should be completed before the deadline, so he finally put his mind at ease, and at the same time cursed Li Shimin and those ministers in his heart, obviously he had already said that he only made up his mind and did not contribute, but in the end these preparations still fell on his head, fortunately, the task of selecting a monk was not let him do, otherwise he would really be busy to death.

After all, as soon as these monks leave, the power of Buddhism will inevitably be hit, and their Taoism has established a Taoist academy and is integrating the power of Taoism, so that they can take advantage of the decline in the power of Buddhism to enhance the influence of Taoism.

Although some people in Buddhism are very dissatisfied with this move of the imperial court, but more people think that it is a good opportunity, after all, Tibet is a big country, and the domestic Buddhist power is weak, if you can take this opportunity to defeat the local Bon religion in one fell swoop, then this is also a great merit to promote Buddhism, so there are still many people willing to go.

It's just that Li Su knows that the selection of senior monks this time is not so simple, among these selected senior monks, there are some Tang Dynasty spies who have just shaved their heads into bald heads, and these spies will go to Tibet with these senior monks, and at the same time shoulder the work of drawing maps, probing information from all sides, and assassinating important people.

Speaking of these spies, I have to mention the shadow guards around Li Shimin, the last time he separated Goguryeo, it was these shadow guards who contributed to it, and it was precisely because of that incident that Li Shimin saw the importance of spies, so he divided the shadow guards into two parts, one of which is a special external intelligence department, called the Foreign Intelligence Agency, and the spies sent out this time are all from the Foreign Intelligence Institute, and as far as Li Su knows, there are still a lot of people in these Foreign Intelligence Institutes, and there are nearly 10,000 internal members alone. There is even a secret training point similar to a military academy in Chang'an, and even Li Su does not know the specific address.

Just when the Tang Dynasty was in full swing to make a fuss about Tibet, after Li Su finished the preparations handed over to him by Li Shimin, he began to prepare to leave Chang'an, after all, he had been in Chang'an for a long time, and Silla and Baekje still needed him to preside, especially the handling of Silla, he had to go in person, and the construction of Taiwan and the exploration of the southern sea route also needed his guidance.

It can be said that his stay in Chang'an is a pure waste of time, and the coastal area of Datang is his real stage.
