"Could it be that Brother Lu still doesn't know?" Li Daozong looked at Lu Chen and asked in surprise.

"What should I know below? Lord Wang, you also know that it is rare to leave Lujiazhuang if you have nothing to do, so the news from the DPRK is not very clear! Lu Chen looked at Li Daozong and said with a smile, "Why did you go to the court these two times, the prince doesn't know!" ”

"That's right!" Li Daozong nodded thoughtfully, speaking of which, Li Daozong also thought that Lu Chen was a very interesting person, originally the two of them were about the same age, and there was no place in such a big Chang'an City that could attract this county magistrate, which was really interesting.

"The Ministry of Industry is now using your iron-making method, and the daily pig iron output is quite considerable, if you apply to Your Majesty, won't the iron material for this iron furnace come?" Li Daozong winked directly at Lu Chen and said.

Lu Chen immediately heard what Li Daozong meant, this is obviously to let His Majesty participate in the shares!

In fact, Lu Chen doesn't care about these things, in Lu Chen's heart, as long as the money is enough for the development and development of Lujiazhuang, of course, Lu Chen doesn't want to eat alone, the reason why he wants to tell Li Daozong is to prepare to pull Li Daozong in.

"This matter still needs to trouble the prince to come forward!" Lu Chen pondered for a moment, and said directly to Li Daozong, "As for how to distribute it, how about it according to the distribution of the glazed shop?" ”

"No problem, this matter is on this king!" Li Daozong originally thought that he was simply helping Lu Chen, so how much money could the iron stove make? Li Daozong thought that this thing definitely didn't make money with glass, so he didn't care if Lu Chen would give him a share, but Lu Chen actually said that he would bring himself again, so there was nothing to say, fly legs are also meat, Li Daozong naturally had no reason to push it out.

"The same is true for the distribution of anthracite, and the land problem of this coal mine, can you also ask the prince?" Lu Chen looked at Li Daozong and continued, "After all, you don't bother the two masters!" ”

"As for the carboniferous mine, this king wants to recommend this king's cousin!" When Li Daozong heard Lu Chen's words, he smiled slightly and said, "If there are other things, this king may have a way, but if it is about this carboniferous land, he really has to find this cousin, after all, he has a lot of such land in his hands!" ”

"Oh? I don't know which prince the cousin in the prince's mouth refers to? Lu Chen looked at Li Daozong and asked, after all, although the two princes of the Li family who are famous in history are Li Daozong and another Li Xiaogong in front of him, it does not mean that there are fewer princes of the Li family, but many of them are not famous.

"Of course it's this cousin of King Zhaojun Li Xiaogong!" Li Daozong said with a smile, "As far as this king knows, there are a lot of coal mines in his fiefdom!" ”

As soon as I heard Li Daozong say that there were a lot of carboniferous mines in Li Xiaogong's fiefdom, Lu Chen's spiritual head came, after all, Lu Chen was still thinking about how to find Li Xiaogong, this was really a pillow when he was sleepy, if he used this matter as an excuse, it would be a good thing to be able to see Li Xiaogong.

"Isn't King Zhao training sailors in Kuizhou? Did you go back to Chang'an? However, Lu Chen still asked suspiciously, because this time period was when Li Xiaogong was training sailors in Kuizhou and supervising the construction of warships.

"Some time ago, His Majesty recalled King Zhao Jun to report on his work, and there should be other arrangements for the New Year!" Li Daozong didn't mean to avoid Lu Chen, and directly told Lu Chen about this matter.

"In that case, we should find a time to visit this King of Zhao Jun!" Lu Chen looked at Li Daozong and said.

"This matter will be arranged by this king, and when the time comes, let Brother Lu be informed!" Li Daozong directly and simply took this matter down.

"Then there is Lord Lao!" Li Daozong took care of everything so much, and Lu Chen was also a little embarrassed to say to Li Daozong.

"It's not a big deal, it's just running errands!" Li Daozong had an indifferent expression, "How about it, Brother Lu, how about tasting the cooking skills of this king's palace here today?" ”

It was only at this time that Lu Chen realized that he had been sitting here for a long time, it was obviously close to noon, and it was time for lunch.

"Then bother the prince!" Lu Chen was not polite, and said directly to Li Daozong with a smile.

"Where to say! It's just a meal, what can it be called! Li Daozong directly instructed the maidservant to tell the kitchen to prepare lunch.

This lunch was eaten by Lu Chen and Li Daozong in the side hall, mainly meat, after all, it is winter, and there are no green vegetables in the prince's house, Li Daozong did what he said at noon, and he didn't drink much wine.

After lunch, Lu Chen said goodbye to Li Daozong, left Rencheng Wangfu and returned to Lujiazhuang.

Back at the mansion, Lu Chen first went to the workshop area for a walk, and then called Liu Laosan and Du Chengze to the mansion.

"My lord, I wonder what the two of us have called us to do?" Du Chengze glanced at Liu Laosan, and said directly to Lu Chen.

"Look at this!" Lu Chen did not answer Du Chengze's words, but took out a gadget from his sleeve cage and handed it to the two.

"What is this?" Liu Laosan stretched out his hand and took the gadget handed over by Lu Chen into his hand, Du Chengze also came over, and the two observed the gadget together.

"My lord, is this a word?" After observing for a long time, Du Chengze looked up at Lu Chen and asked in an uncertain tone.

"Yes!" Lu Chen nodded very simply.

"What's the use of that?" Du Chengze and Liu Laosan still didn't quite understand Lu Chen's intention to show them the two of them this gadget.

"Have you ever seen a stamp or a seal?" Lu Chen looked at Du Chengze and Liu Laosan and asked.

"Naturally, I've seen it! The villain also has its own stamp! Du Chengze said and took out his stamp from his sleeve cage to show Lu Chen, after all, he is also the deputy head of the workshop area now, and many things are to be compiled into a book, so naturally he must confirm it with a stamp.

"Good!" Lu Chen glanced at Du Chengze's seal and returned it directly to Du Chengze, "Are all the books we print now?" Like this seal? Lu Chen looked at Du Chengze and asked.

"If it's compared with the seal..."Du Chengze pondered for a while, compared the engraving printing and the seal, and found that the production methods of the two are really similar, but one word is more and one word is less, "Indeed, as the adults said, there is not much difference!" Du Chengze nodded, Liu Laosan was still a little confused at this time, after all, he didn't know much, and it was more about technology, so he didn't have much say in the matters that Lu Chen and Du Chengze discussed.

"What if we make a separate seal for each of these characters and print them according to the arrangement of the words on the book?" Lu Chen said and pointed to the gadgets he gave to Du Chengze, and said with guidance.

"I see, my lord, no wonder the villain feels a little familiar when he sees this somewhat weird seal!" Du Chengze said and took out his seal and compared it with the one given to him by Lu Chen, and found that both of them were like seals, but the picture of the seal was concave inside, while the one that Lu Chen gave him was convex, and if it was printed on the paper, there was no border, only the word on it.

"Do you want to make words like this?" Liu Laosan also figured out what Lu Chen wanted to do at this time, so he asked directly.

"Of course!" Lu Chen nodded directly, "Let's try the first batch with wood first, if it can be done, it is best to replace it with lead!" Lu Chen looked at Du Chengze and Liu Laosan and said.

"Find a reliable person to do this! Got it? Lu Chen directly and solemnly instructed the two of them.

"The villain understands!" Du Chengze and Liu Laosan agreed together.

For this kind of thing, it is obvious that Du Chengze, a person who has read books, has a deeper understanding than Liu Laosan, because if this matter is really done, it will subvert the printing technology of books, "My lord, I don't know if this method of printing books has a name?" Du Chengze looked at Lu Chen and asked softly.

"Because these characters are movable and can be typeset at will, this kind of printing technology is called 'movable type printing'!" Lu Chen said very casually.

"Movable type!" Du Chengze repeated slowly.

"This must be done as soon as possible!" Lu Chen looked at the two and asked.

"Yes!" The two of them answered again in unison, followed by Lu Chen's farewell, and went directly to find someone to do this.

"Lao Du, why are you upset when you come out of your grandfather?" Walking on the way back to the workshop area, Liu Laosan found that Du Chengze looked absent-minded, and couldn't help but ask with some concern.

"Alas!" Hearing Liu Laosan's words of concern, Du Chengze sighed directly.

"Something to say! What do you sigh for! Liu Laosan directly and unceremoniously said Du Chengze.

"If the movable type printing technique that my grandfather said is made, it may have subversive consequences!" Du Chengze said faintly, maybe Liu Laosan will not have such a deep understanding, but Du Chengze, a person who has read since childhood, has a deep understanding, how did they get their books?

Either it was copied from the book, or it was handed down from the ancestors, and if you want to buy a book, I'm sorry, there is only one word, expensive! And people like Du Chengze and their status, even if they are rich, people will not sell you books, not to mention that many books are directly collected by those families at home, and they are simply put outside, is there a bookstore in Chang'an, there is, but the books in it are expensive, and the other is those books like Mengxue, and the real kind of books that can improve knowledge are very few!
