"It's not impossible!" Li Ce smiled indifferently and handed the potatoes in his hand to Pei Qing, "Anyway, good goods are never afraid of no buyers!" I hope you are someone who knows how to weigh the pros and cons! With me in Chang'an, what are you afraid of? ”

"However, a thousand taels of gold is too much!" Lao Li sighed deeply, "Within the treasury, it is extremely difficult to come up with a thousand taels of gold!" I hope the little shopkeeper will forgive me! ”

"It's okay! I can wait slowly! Anyway, I only sell this thing for a thousand taels of gold! Li Ce smiled indifferently, "Brother Qing'er, send this thing back!" Take good care of it! Don't let anyone with a heart worry about it! ”

"Okay, little master, don't worry, in our Drunken Immortal Building, no matter who comes, it's useless!" Pei Qing swore an oath, and hurriedly took the potatoes and went to the back hall.

Seeing this scene, Lao Li sighed again.

"Little shopkeeper, what do you think of Your Majesty to you?"

"Good!" Li Ce's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the man in front of him, "However, one yard is one yard!" I'm a businessman, this is business, and although I like Datang very much, I can't help but do business! Your Majesty's kindness, I have taken it to heart! ”

"That's it, little shopkeeper, can you lower the price, I'll let Your Majesty give you an official position!" Lao Li looked excited, as if he had thought of some good plan.

However, Lao Li's excitement got a look, but in the young man's shake, it came to naught.

"Lao Li, I don't want any official position, I just want to stay here and scribble through this life! For Datang, I also try my best to help, but this kind of help is not selfless dedication! Li Ce smiled, turned around and walked in the direction of the rocking chair, "Lao Li, Lao Sun, I can't do anything about this matter, although it is the same item, I am different from what you see!" ”

"What does the little shopkeeper see?" Lao Li frowned slightly and asked.

"What you see is only the heaviness of a thousand taels of gold, but what I see is the future of Datang, the future of the people of Datang!" The corners of Li Ce's mouth curled slightly, as if his heart was full of longing, "However, this future will be turned into a bubble because of a thousand taels of gold, and I feel a little worthless in my heart!" That's all and nothing else! ”

The boy seemed to emphasize, and after the words, he hurriedly added the words 'that's all, nothing else'!

It seems to emphasize that although he wants to help Datang prosper, he can't go against the original intention of the businessman, and in this dilemma, he handed over the choice to himself!

"That's it, little shopkeeper, I'll leave you a note first, if this thing can really have the effect of producing 6,000 catties per mu, presumably Your Majesty is also willing to pay 1,000 taels of gold!"

"That's fine! However, I hope that this note can be stamped with His Majesty's jade seal, you know, I am just a businessman, and no one in business can be careful! Be careful to make the ship of ten thousand years! Li Ce smiled indifferently, his face like a peach blossom.

"It's okay, it's just that the item ......"

Before Lao Li finished speaking, Li Ce shook his head and said with a smile: "Lao Li, when you send the note, I will give it to you, and I will also teach you how to plant it!" The planting method, even if it is a gift, will not charge you a penny! What do you think? ”

"This ...... That's fine! The corners of Lao Li's mouth twitched, "If this thing can really solve the people's food problem, the small shopkeeper must be the first credit!" ”

"Don't dare to be, I'm just a businessman, if Your Majesty can really make up his mind to buy, then he is the real first merit!" Li Ce smiled indifferently, "There are also Lao Li and Lao Sun, the two of you are also a great achievement, when the time comes, you will be promoted to the knighthood, don't forget me!" Don't forget the wealth! ”

"Haha......" Lao Li showed a bright smile, "But the little shopkeeper, the imperial examination system still hasn't solved the problem!" ”

"Well, solving the problem of food and clothing for the people is only the first step!"

"The first step? Little shopkeeper, you mean there's a second step? Lao Li frowned slightly, "Dare to ask the little shopkeeper, what is this second step?" ”

"The second step is to develop academies nationwide! Funded by the National Treasury to make education affordable for all! Li Ce's eyes narrowed slightly, and he laughed softly.

"Make school affordable for everyone?" Lao Li's pupils widened, and his face was full of consternation, "I have to admit that your idea, little shopkeeper, is extremely powerful, but it is really difficult to implement!" Take the simplest of books, for example! In every school, there must be classics, and the burning and transportation of classics is a huge task! ”

"Yes, little shopkeeper, the bamboo slips are very heavy, if there are a huge number of classics, then I am afraid that countless transported cattle will be exhausted!" Lao Sun hurriedly catered to him.

"But it makes sense, if I can invent something lighter, so that the bamboo slips that originally weighed four or five catties will become half and two! Isn't it much easier to transport like this? Li Ce's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled.

"Oh? How else does a small shopkeeper know such a miracle? Lao Li looked excited, and looked at the young man with his eyes, "Little shopkeeper, what is the name of your magic skill?" ”

"Papermaking!"

"Paper?" The corners of Lao Li's mouth twitched, and he shook his head gently, "Little shopkeeper, this kind of thing has appeared a long time ago, but it is expensive, and it is not something that ordinary people can use!" And it's not convenient to use this thing to record the classics! ”

"Lao Li, what if I can sell paper at a low price, so that even ordinary people can afford it?" The corners of Li Ce's mouth curled slightly, and he had a weird smile on his face, "If that's the case, then do you still think that paper books are not easy to preserve?" ”

"Even so, copying the texts on paper is a huge undertaking!" Lao Li sighed deeply, as if he foresaw some insurmountable difficulties, "Little shopkeeper, you better find another way!" Even if you are a small shopkeeper, you will only drag yourself down if you sell paper regardless of the cost! ”

"That's not necessarily, Lao Li, you have to understand that if you want Datang to prosper and be strong, paper is very necessary! Because paper is conducive to the spread of knowledge, and the key to the country's strength is knowledge! Li Ce sighed deeply, "As for transcribing classics, I also have a way to print them at high speed and effectively, and I call this technique printing!" ”

"Printing...... Technique? Lao Li was confused, "What is printing?" Old Sun, have you heard of it? ”

"Brother Li, I haven't heard of it, this is the first time I've heard of it!" Lao Sun looked embarrassed and shook his head slightly.

"I beg the little shopkeeper to give me advice!" Lao Li clenched his fists and looked respectful, "What is printing?" ”

"It's very simple, have you seen His Majesty's jade seal?" Li Ce's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a faint smile on his face!
