Compared with when he first came to this era, Tian Fan's body has changed a lot. At that time, Tian Fan's body was very weak, not weak, not skinny, but he definitely had no strength, and he didn't have the energy to be busy all day without feeling tired. The most important and obvious point is that at that time, his alcohol consumption was very poor, and half a catty of liquor was almost drunk.

But now, his body has not changed much on the surface, just a little stronger, but he has not become a muscular man, but he has changed a lot inside his body. Moreover, he is almost not drunk in a thousand glasses now, and even if he is drunk, he will sober up very quickly.

Tian Fan had tried to find the reason countless times, but in the end he couldn't find it. Siyu also checked his pulse many times, but he couldn't find anything abnormal. If you want to say that it is a bit abnormal, that is, today's Tian Fan, his explosive power, keen senses, etc., are far from what his slightly thin body can have. Siyu didn't have any reasonable explanation for this, but he repeatedly assured that he was all healthy and that there were no adverse abnormalities.

Tian Fan thought about it, and finally attributed this magical change to the Heavenly and Human Recipe and the Five Elements Technique that he had been insisting on practicing, and finally found a reason for himself to rest assured.

After being drunk and unconscious, he woke up just an hour.

At this time, it was just the middle of the day, which was equivalent to about eight o'clock in the evening in the later life, and it was still a little early to go to bed. So, he crawled out of the warm bed.

Hearing the movement, the maid Fangcao hurriedly walked in.

Tian Fan's head still hurt a little, and he frowned and said, "Fangcao, where is Madam?" ”

Fangcao bowed slightly and said, "Uncle, madam, they are eating!" By the way, Mr. Sima is waiting for you in the living room, saying that once you wake up, let you go over and have a look. Miss Yueying has come over several times, and it seems that Mr. Sima is in a hurry. ”

Tian Fan nodded, and said in a daze: "Okay, you help me get some water, and I'll freshen up!" ”

Fangcao agreed, and didn't mention it.

The Tian family courtyard in the Tian family manor covers a very large area, and in the west courtyard where Tian Fan lives, there are also all necessary buildings such as the main hall. Now there is a row of rooms in this courtyard, a total of five houses. Each room is large, and in addition to the outer room and the inner room, which is used as a bedroom, there are two side rooms for maids to live in, and a private room for a dozen or so people to eat. These houses are specially for Tian Fan and Mi Zhen, Bai Yuzhu and their personal maids and others to live in and use, and even Cai Yan and Lu Xin's rooms are ready, the same standard, the same size. It not only ensures that everyone has an independent space, but also is relatively close, which is convenient for walking around and communicating feelings.

The main hall is a dedicated building, in front of this row of rooms.

After Tian Fan finished washing, his head, which had a headache, finally cleared up a little, and he walked towards the main hall.

Walking into the main hall, I took a look, and saw Sima Hui and Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and Huang Yueying all there.

Without waiting for the salute, Sima Hui waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, sit down!" Tell us about paper and printing! Listening to Kong Ming and Shi Yuan today, we learned that you kid has a lot of good things that haven't been told us! Hurry up, hurry up! ”

Tian Fan couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart, it turned out that Sima Hui could also be so concerned about one thing!

He sat down, took a cup of thick, well-temperature tea from Huang Yueying's hand, nodded to the girl to thank him, took a sip in her sweet smile, and praised her casually, and when the girl ran back to Huang Chengyan happily, he said: "Father-in-law, two teachers, papermaking, has existed since ancient times, and Cai Hou, the emperor's middle servant, has improved it, so there is the current paper." However, the source of raw materials for paper production is too small to supply what is needed, so ......"

He talked about it for a long time, including the reasons why he wanted to improve papermaking, the specific technical details of papermaking, and the far-reaching impact of successful research on papermaking.

When they figured out the joints inside, it was a free question session, Sima Hui and the three kept asking questions, Tian Fan was dry, and kept drinking tea.

Huang Yueying saw it, and didn't listen to them anymore, and came to Tian Fan's side from Huang Chengyan's side, and was specifically responsible for refilling water and changing tea for him.

After a long time, Sima Hui and the three of them had nothing to ask, and Huang Chengyan said again: "Well, the papermaking has been finished, you can talk about the details of printing!" ”

Tian Fan took a sip of strong tea, squeezed his eyebrows for a long time, let out a long breath, and said: "Father-in-law, two teachers, printing technology and papermaking complement each other, without papermaking, printing technology cannot be of great use at all!" In fact, the source of my inspiration for printing also came from something that has existed in the past, and that is seals! ”

After a slight pause, he said: "The three of you can think about it, the words in the seal are engraved backwards, so as to ensure that once the words are printed, they will be in the right direction." However, only a few words can be engraved on the seal, so I wondered if I could engrave words on multiple seals, engrave a sentence, and then arrange them in a certain order and fix them. In this way, a sentence can be printed one at a time. By extension, if you engrave all the words in an article and arrange them according to the word order of the article, won't you be able to print an article at one time? ……”

Then, Tian Fan talked about many problems in printing. Finally, he frowned and said, "It's just that the current technology is not mature. The people in my workshop tried everything they could not solve those problems. Hey, it seems that it will take some time for printing to really work! ”

The three teachers asked questions again and helped them think of several solutions, but they couldn't completely solve the problem.

Huang Yueying listened to them, her big beautiful eyes were shining, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

After a while, Sima Hui frowned and shook his head, and said, "Otherwise, tomorrow I will go to your workshop with Chengyan and Degong to take a look, maybe we can solve a lot of problems by taking a look at it on the spot." Well, that's all! Anyway, after a while, we also plan to teach at Wangshan Academy, so we just stopped by to have a look. ”

Tian Fan nodded and said, "That's fine!" ”

Wangshan Academy is located in the hinterland of Xuzhou, relatively stable and prosperous, after several years of development, it has become a paradise for scholars to study. There are not only good hardware there, but also lecture halls and schools are newly built, and their standards are full of catch up with the previous Luoyang Taixue. Best of all, there are a lot of famous teachers! Zheng Xuan served as the sacrificial wine, and the younger brothers of the famous men in Kong Rong's family, Chen Qi, the old man of the Chen Deng family, Chen Ji, the old man of the Chen Qun family, Guan Ning, and other great Confucians, served as doctors in the college and taught for a long time, and Kong Rong and others often went to teach. This luxurious faculty mix was no less attractive to the students of the time than Harvard University is to the students of today.

Now, there are more than 2,000 students in Wangshan Academy, and it is a well-deserved No. 1 university in the Han Dynasty in the turbulent times.

Sima Hui looked at the sky and said to Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and Huang Yueying: "Kong Ming, Shiyuan, Shuo'er, it's getting late, go and rest!" Hehe, let's go to the workshop tomorrow to have a look, the road is not close, don't take a good rest, but no! ”

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong listened, stood up, saluted Sima Hui and the others, and then saluted Tian Fan, and then left.

Huang Yueying didn't want to leave, but when she heard that she was going to the workshop tomorrow, she couldn't help but smile sweetly, and said hello to a few people, and then left in a hurry.

Huang Chengyan couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "This girl, she is fourteen years old, and she still doesn't have the stability that a girl should have all day long!" Hey, I'm spoiled! ”

Pang Degong stroked his beard and smiled, and said: "Hehe, although Shuo'er is not stable enough and not so much like a lady, she is not ignorant!" Hehe, Chengyan, such a well-behaved and lovely daughter, I envy it! ”

When Sima Hui heard this, he shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "Hey! Chengyan, your daughter is too lively, but my daughter is too boring! It would be nice if our two daughters were even with each other! ”

Huang Chengyan shook his head, not knowing whether to cry or laugh, for a long time, he said: "Okay, don't mention these bad things, let's get down to business!" ”

Sima Hui nodded, brushed his beard and glanced at Tian Fan, and asked curiously, "Boguang, are you unhappy about anything today?" Why did you drink so much alcohol? Listen to Tian Fu said, the guests you invited are all subordinates in the craftsman camp? ”

Tian Fan's wine didn't wake up completely, he had a little headache after getting up just now, and he was embarrassed by these three teachers for so long just now, and now he only felt his temples suddenly jumping.

Listening to Sima Hui's question, he raised his eyes and glanced at Sima Hui and the others, and said the whole thing with some frustration. There are no outsiders here, there is nothing to hide.

After hearing this, Sima Hui nodded slowly and said, "Boguang, hehe, this matter is for the teacher...... Your father-in-law is on guard against you! ”

Tian Fan was startled, and his somewhat confused mind suddenly woke up, he looked directly at Sima Hui and the three of them, and asked, "Heart of prevention?" Not really, right? I didn't do anything out of the ordinary! ”

Huang Chengyan smiled, stroked the three strands of long beard, and said, "You really didn't do anything out of the ordinary, on the contrary, you did too well!" It's so good...... Let the general worry, if you turn against him one day, what kind of situation will he fall into? ”

Pang Degong nodded and said, "Not bad!" Think about it, how many big things have you done since your debut? How many can increase their prestige? Hehe, the general is no longer the lord you thought he used to be, he has become a monarch! Monarchs, naturally, should pay attention to balance. Think about it, if all these artisan leaders who follow you are sealed, how much will your influence expand? Don't let me go into details, right? ”

Tian Fan nodded, stroked his increasingly painful head, and groaned!

Sima Hui and the three of them didn't speak, but they each brushed their beards and looked at Tian Fan quietly.

After a while, Tian Fan asked, "Father-in-law, two teachers, what you said is right." I just want to know one thing, will the lord trust me in the future? ”

Sima Hui smiled and nodded, and said, "Hehe, the emperor's mental technique, what is important is a balance!" When you are in the limelight, you can't pose a threat to him, and he will naturally continue to trust you. Well...... In fact, now, the general also trusts you, but how can there be a tiger on the side of the couch? What he did was just a precaution, but that doesn't mean he doesn't believe you! ”

Huang Chengyan said: "Not bad! Now, the general has helped you set up an antagonist among the generals, and I think he will help you set up an enemy among the generals in the next step! Hehe, I just don't know, who will the general choose? ”

Pang Degong said "um" and continued: "Between you and Chen Qun, or between you and the enemy among the generals in the future, the general will always strike a balance. Once someone is weak, he will support him, and once he is strong, he will suppress him to maintain this delicate balance. After a slight pause, he said: "Boguang, if you are worried that the general will no longer trust you, then I suggest that you give him an idea to promote a military general who is enough to oppose you in terms of status and ability." In fact...... That's fine, you can all have peace of mind. ”

Tian Fan was completely dizzy, he already had a headache, and now he had a splitting headache!

He hadn't thought it through yet, so he only heard Sima Hui say: "As for what you want to do with the craftsman...... Hehe, how many people in this world can understand your thoughts? If you want to crown them, unless you can stand at the pinnacle of power! At that time, who can disagree? Who would dare to disagree? ”

After saying that, Sima Hui looked at Tian Fan with blazing eyes.

Tian Fan was stupid by his last sentence, he looked at Sima Hui stupidly, I don't know if he said it casually, or is it a temptation, or a hint and encouragement?

I don't understand, I really don't understand!

……

When he woke up the next day, the headache caused by the hangover finally disappeared, Tian Fan remembered Sima Hui's words last night, and couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality? If it's a dream, then that's your underlying thought. If it is reality, then, what exactly does Sima Hui mean?
