When Yan Squeak rode a little donkey out of the palace, he actually met Yan Weiming at the gate of the palace.

The young prince wore a round-necked robe made of yellow lion brocade, and stood there with his hands behind his back, as bright as a jade tree.

Yan squeaked and sat on the donkey to enjoy the meeting, and then told the little donkey to hurry over.

"Brother Prince, what a coincidence, do you want to leave the palace too?"

Yan Weiming, who came over to wait, bowed slightly, looking light, "Yes, what a coincidence." ”

The guards who followed behind Yan Weiming lowered their heads and did not speak.

Yan Squeak didn't think about it so much, he got off the little donkey, took the initiative to take Yan Weiming's hand, took the short legs, and asked him curiously what he was going to do when he left the palace.

The prince looked left and right, the forbidden army was still a little far away from them, and the guards who followed him were confidants, so he said calmly, "Father handed over the matter of the paper workshop to me, and I will go out of the palace to see the location of the workshop." ”

"Paper workshop?"

Yan Squeaky took a slow step and remembered that she had sold the method of making bamboo paper to her father for the price of a few plates of pastries. However, she also sold it to Master for the price of a plate of pastries. is equivalent to selling more than one piece of paper, and she and Maomao feel that they have made too much money.

"But, didn't it work out yet?"

Yan Weiming held the soft little hand in his hand, only to feel that his heart was so soft that his voice became gentler, "Father has always taken one step and looked at three steps. If he really waits for the Shaofu to succeed in making paper, it will be many months later, and then it will be too late to choose a site to build a workshop or expand the scale. ”

The crown prince explained that the emperor not only asked him to choose a construction workshop on the outskirts of the capital, but even to build workshops in several nearby state capitals.

"If the bamboo paper manufacturing is successful, it will be promoted on a large scale in the future, but only with the workshop in the capital, it will not be able to supply the entire Dacheng."

Once the production is insufficient, the merchant will still sell it at a high price when it is transported elsewhere, which is not in line with the emperor's original intention of reducing the price of paper.

"In the early stage, only a few workshops were built, and when the money was earned from the family, it was expanded to the whole country."

Yan Weiming showed a gentle smile, "Rare things are expensive, even if the manufacture of bamboo paper is successful, we will hoard paper in the early stage, and only sell a little at a time." ”

Yan squeaked up to him and looked at him, as if he saw two fluffy fox ears erected above his head, and looked behind him, as if he saw a tail wagging triumphantly.

She followed her heart and praised seriously, "Daddy is so powerful, brother, you are also so powerful." ”

The prince accepted this praise reservedly.

"In addition, the improved method will also be used to make hemp paper, and my father asked me to come forward and buy a workshop that makes hemp paper."

Thinking that in the future, these workshops can make the family's money and help ordinary people, Yan Weiming finally has the feeling that he is working for Dacheng instead of eating for nothing every day.

"That's right," he said, bowing his head, earnestly, "and you provided the paper-making technique, and these workshops will be opened under your name." You are responsible for providing ideas, I am responsible for management, and my father is responsible for helping the family. My father said that after paying the taxes, you and I will share the proceeds equally. ”

This is a windfall for Yan Squeak.

She couldn't help but reach out her little hand to hug her.

"Brother!"

Of course, Yan Weiming wanted to hug his sister, but at the age of ten, he could pick up his sister, but he couldn't walk far in a row, or lift it high.

He bent over, picked up the man with great difficulty, and struggled to move forward.

The guards who followed him stopped talking several times.

"Brother Prince, you and Daddy are all right."

Yan squeaked happily with him, and the cheeks of the two were squeezed together.

In fact, Yan Weiming, who was a little tired, felt that he was doing it again, and continued to walk forward with the somewhat mellow little divine doctor, trying not to make himself look tired.

Yan squeaked and tried to turn his little head, "However, last time the prince's brother said that the treasury was empty. Does an empty treasury mean that there is no money? ”

After getting a positive answer, the little doctor was a little anxious, "Then give all the money to the treasury, Squeak doesn't need so much money, Squeak is very easy to raise, just give food every day." ”

"You can rest assured, the tax on paper is currently relatively high, and the more you sell, the more tax you pay. The money went into the treasury and it was the same. ”

Yan Weiming just told the truth, but planted a seed in Yan Squeak's heart.

If you sell more, you pay more taxes. If the price is high, will the tax be more? Father and the prince's brother both said that the family is rich, so no matter what they make in the future, they will sell it to them at a high price. Sell it to ordinary people, just use the ordinary price.

Yan Weiming still didn't know the change in his sister's thoughts, he explained to his sister very seriously, even if he didn't understand it at his sister's age.

"My father put the workshop in your name, and it seems that he still does not plan to turn the papermaking industry into an official camp in the future. As long as it is not government-run, businessmen will make profits, and they will expand their scale when they smell it. Do you think, when the more people sell paper, what will be the price of paper? ”

"It's going to be very low," Yan squeaked and raised his claws milkily, "Is Squeak right?" ”

"That's right, Squeak is so smart."

Yan squeaked and shook his body proudly.

Yan Weiming couldn't hold her a little, but as soon as she shook like this, the whole person fell forward.

The guards hurriedly stepped forward, ready to catch the two.

A pair of rough hands appeared in the oblique thorns and held Yan Weiming up.

"Xiao Langjun, be careful."

Yan Weiming stood firm, quickly put his sister down, and thanked him.

Yan squeaked to follow his example, and also arched his little meat paws, bending down slightly, "Thank you, uncle." ”

The person she called her uncle saw her appearance clearly, and said in surprise, "Little Divine Doctor, I finally found you!" ”

Yan squeaked his eyes suspiciously, "Have we seen each other before?" ”

Liu Mao said with a smile: "Doctor Yan asked someone to send a portrait of the little doctor, but I am the only one who has seen the little doctor, and the little doctor doesn't know me." ”

Hearing that it was related to the master, Yan Squeak's eyes lit up, and he walked forward unconsciously, "Really? What else did Master say? ”

Yan Weiming was a little vigilant and hurriedly pulled his sister back.

Looking at Liu Mao again, his tone was a little cold, "Does Uncle have a certificate?" ”

In the prince's heart, his sister is powerful and kind, and a little stupid, but she is easy to be deceived. As an older brother, he has a responsibility to protect his sister!

Liu Mao was not annoyed, and took out a jade pendant with a smile.

"Ah, it's Master's jade pendant."

Yan Squeak excitedly poked out a head from behind Yan Weiming, "However, does Master make a lot of such jade pendants?" ”

Chao Ci's brother had one, which was said to have been given to him by the imperial doctor's order, and later that one went to his father's hands. She also had one, which was given by her master. Now this strange uncle has it too.

Liu Mao didn't explain the matter of Yu Pei, but only indicated his identity.

To put it simply, he is Yan Squeak's housekeeper in the capital and several nearby state capitals.

Countless question marks came out of Yan's squeaky head.

She held her fleshy little face, and her big eyes revealed clear confusion.

"Squeaky Grange? How does Squeak not know? ”
