Chapter 31: The Way of Wealth
For the assassination of the prince, it is a crisis, and Satsuki is selfish, she wants to know more inside information, and then she can prepare measures to deal with it as soon as possible.
So she hopes that Wen Youyou can go to work normally, so she can learn more about these news.
In addition, Xiao Yue didn't believe too much that the prince would have problems, although there might indeed be spies in the camp, but according to her understanding of the prince's personality, as well as the fox and Wu Yong around him, it didn't feel simple. So even if she believes that something may happen to the prince, she doesn't believe that the prince's injury will be serious enough to change the coach.
When she told Wen Youyou what she thought, Wen Youyou looked at her in surprise and asked, "How do you know?"
Satsuki smiled and said, "I guessed. "Satsuki won't let him know that she and the prince know each other.
Wen Youyou patted her head and said, "Nonsense!"
Xiao Yue touched her head and said, "You have to know if I'm messing around, you just go to work in the yamen every day." ”
Wen Youyou smiled and said, "You are going around the bend to persuade me to go to work!"
Xiao Yue nodded and said, "The situation is not good now, for you, for your father, I think it is better for you to move around the court more." ”
I don't know if I listened to Xiaoyue's advice, or Wen Youyou felt that Master Wen was getting older and older, which made him unbearable, and since then Wen Youyou has started to work normally in the Yamen of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, reporting in the morning, and only going home in the afternoon, becoming like a motivated young official.
Xiao Yue continued to write her notebook at home, and this day, the sudden visit of the fourth master of Yun caught her off guard.
Xiao Yue saw the white and chubby Yun Siye who suddenly arrived, and thought to herself that this product was not here to urge the draft.
As a result, Yun Siye didn't mention the manuscript in half a sentence, he brought Xiaoyue some cured meat, as well as rice oil.
Xiao Yue thought that this person had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, so she asked directly: "Fourth Master Yun, you are an elder during the Chinese New Year, and you have a heart to personally send these New Year's goods." Satsuki is really grateful. ”
Yun Siye sat in the front hall, drank tea, and said with a smile: "Yes, I have been friends with Pan Lao for many years, and you don't have to be polite to me." ”
Xiao Yue thought to herself that this person regarded herself as Old Man Pan's apprentice, and then said: "I heard that Bailan Book House will not be closed for the New Year, and Fourth Master Yun is so busy coming to me, I'm afraid there is something important, right?"
Yun Siye still said happily: "Miss Xiaoyue is really a smart person in ice and snow, no wonder Yan girl doesn't want to leave if she lives with you." ”
Xiao Yue heard what he said, and didn't want to go around in circles with him, so she said: "Fourth Master Yun, I'm a junior, if you have something to say, please say it directly!"
Yun Siye put down the teacup and said: "Miss Xiaoyue said this, I'll just say it, I thought that Miss Xiaoyue needed someone to help copy the notebook a few years ago, so I sent Yun Yan to help." He paused, wanted to sort out his words, and then said: "I didn't expect Yun Yan and the girl to hit it off at first sight, and the two of you are fated by this, which is also a good thing." It's just that I've been temporarily short of manpower there recently.,So.。。 He looked up at Xiao Yue, rubbed his hands a little embarrassed, and said, "I want Yun Yan to go back and help me for a few days, just a few days, and after eighteen, the workers will return to work, so let her come back." ”
Xiao Yue was a little unhappy in her heart, after all, she had been with Yun Yan for so many days, and she also had feelings, and she had never treated Yun Yan as a person, but treated her like her own sister. But Yun Yan is Yun Siye's niece after all, and it is impossible for her to refuse Yun Siye's request, so she had to say: "Yun Siye, what are you talking about, Yun Yan is your niece, and you asked her to accompany me to write a notebook, you lack someone there and want her to go back to help, I have no opinion." Let's see if Yun Yan is willing to do it herself?"
As soon as Xiao Yue's words fell, Yun Yan came in from the door of the front hall and said to Yun Siye and Xiao Yue: "Fourth uncle, look at Xiao Yue's body, if I leave, I really don't feel at ease if she is alone!" Yun Siye was also slightly embarrassed and silent.
Yun Yan said: "Actually, I know that there is a shortage of people to transcribe the book from the fourth uncle recently, otherwise I will take the book back and copy it here, okay?"
Yun Siye thought about it and was about to speak. When Satsuki arrived, she asked with some curiosity, "What is a transcript?"
Yun Siye said: "The bookstore received some writers' books, and then found workers to copy them into books and texts so that they could be sold. ”
Xiao Yue froze. Then she remembered that the books she had read, each one was handwritten, and this was too inefficient, so she blurted out and asked, "Why not print?"
Yun Siye was a little puzzled when he heard this, and asked, "What is printing?"
Xiao Yue thought for a while and pointed to the carvings on the door frame and said: "Look at these carvings, they are all carved by people, if we carve the words one by one, every time we want to publish a book, arrange these words one by one, paint them with ink, and print them directly on the paper, so that you can print many copies at a time, it is better than you find someone to copy word by word." ”
Yun Siye still didn't understand, Xiao Yue looked at the small bag hanging on Yun Siye's waist and asked, "Can the fourth master have a seal?"
Yun Siye said: "I always carry it with me." Xiao Yue said, "Take it to me." ”
Yun Siye untied his bag, took out a blood-red stone seal from it, carved with the three big characters of Yun Zhilan, and handed it to Xiao Yue.
Xiao Yue took the seal and said to Yun Siye: "A seal engraves a word, we can print a word, but if we have countless seals, each seal engraved with different words, according to the content of the book, these words are arranged, then we can print a book." ”
Yun Siye suddenly realized, and showed a strange smile like an empowerment, and he said, "Miss Xiaoyue, I finally know why Old Pan admires you so much. Xiao Yue couldn't understand this smile at the time, but later when Yun Siye was counting the money, she also discovered this smile.
It turned out that at this time, Yun Siye found that Miss Xiaoyue had become the incarnation of the God of Wealth, especially Xiaoyue, who was white and chubby, and her big belly did not look like a doll, but like a gold ingot.
Yun Siye hurriedly asked Xiao Yue for the details of printing, and then immediately found workers to start carving movable type and conducting typesetting experiments, and Xiao Yue was guided throughout the process. Of course, Yun Siye is a businessman, and he is a businessman with brains, he gave half of the shares of Bailan Book House to Xiao Yue on the spot, and asked Xiao Yue to be the owner of Bai Lan Book House with him. On the one hand, Yun Siye didn't want Xiao Yue to teach the methods of printing to other peers, and on the other hand, he knew that Xiao Yue might become a new generation of writers after Pan Lao in the future, and the fat water would not flow into the fields of outsiders. Yun Siye has been thinking about this matter for a long time, and feels that there is no harm in it, and only by letting Xiaoyue be the second master of Bailan Studyhouse can it be possible to keep Xiaoyue.
Xiao Yue thought that it was not a bad thing to have money to earn, even if she didn't rely on Wen Youyou in the future, she would have her own income, and economic independence was what she had always pursued, so when Yun Siye took half of the shares of Bailan Bookstore, she didn't refuse, she even felt that this Yun Siye was a very discerning businessman, and it was often a win-win situation to cooperate with smart people. Then, every month, Yun Siye would ask Mr. Bookkeeper to send the dividends of the month, and because of the use of printing, the cost of Bailan Book House has decreased a lot, and the income has also been greatly improved. Xiaoyue also suggested that they have more quantity and better price, and when they are discounted and promoted during holidays, Bailan Bookstore has opened countless branches in the UK, becoming the first bookstore in the UK.
In addition to helping Bailan Book House with printing guidance, Xiao Yue also continues to write her notebook, and she is very busy every day. Wen Youyou sometimes came to her, but she couldn't say a few words, and saw that she either instructed the workers to carve movable type, or experimented with typesetting tools, and wrote a book at night, so that Wen Youyou often drank at home alone.
On this day, Wen Youyou learned some new news from the yamen, and was about to talk to Xiaoyue, but at the gate of the imperial city, he actually saw Zhushan.
