Chapter 209

In the county governor's mansion, Qin Yu, Li Yue and Zhao Ling'er were sitting around the dining table eating.

Qin Yu gulped down the rice, and the chopsticks knocked the bowl to a clang.

Zhao Ling'er and Li Yue glanced at each other, and at the same time turned their disdainful gaze at Qin Yu.

Qin Yu was eating, and felt that someone was watching him, so he looked up at the two women.

Seeing the two women looking at themselves, the dishes and chopsticks in their hands stopped.

"What are you looking at me doing, hurry up and eat."

"No, you eat, lest you not have enough to eat and die of starvation at home." Li Yue Yin and Yang Dao.

Qin Yu rolled his eyes, ignored it anymore, and continued to eat in large gulps.

Seeing this, the two women shook their heads helplessly.

Zhao Ling'er suddenly said: "In order to get rid of one person this time, is it too much of a loss?" ”

Qin Yu finished eating the last bit of food in a few bites and wiped his mouth.

"If we don't get rid of this princess, we will be in even more trouble, and this loss is worth it."

Qin Yu also knew that the loss was great, but there was no way, he couldn't hand over the craftsmanship of making mirrors.

But even if I know how to do it, I can't do it with the current technology!

The current mirrors are all made out of the system, and I can't hand over the system, that's too.

The other party now covets the craftsmanship of the mirror, that is, covets his own system, and no matter how big the price is, he will kill her.

The two girls didn't understand it anyway, and they always felt that they were too bad.

Li Yue asked: "Since you want to create rumors, then why do you want them to tell the truth when an official asks about it?" ”

"It's not a truth, it's just a half-truth." Qin Yu said with a smile.

The two girls glanced at Qin Yu again.

Qin Yu continued to smile and said: "Rumors are rumors after all, you can deceive ordinary people, but you can't deceive those who are officials. ”

"Why?"

"Because you can't deceive, you will be killed."

Qin Yu said in a deep voice: "On the contrary, if you tell him the truth, and then take refuge in him, it will be a gang, and you will naturally be safe." ”

"If it were me, I would definitely kill the rumor-mongers, and even if I took refuge in me, I wouldn't be at ease." Li Yue said.

Qin Yu nodded, "So, I plan to withdraw them after this matter is over." ”

"What! Didn't you say that we should unite and raise food prices? Zhao Ling'er looked at Qin Yu suspiciously.

If all these people were withdrawn, it would be equivalent to giving up these twenty or so chambers of commerce, and the loss would be even greater.

Qin Yu sighed: "This is also something that can't be helped. ”

"After thinking about it, it's safest to withdraw them."

"After all, this rumor is a threat to the royal power to a certain extent, and the kings of various countries will definitely not be reassured."

Zhao Ling'er pursed her mouth, "This loss is really too big!" ”

Qin Yu scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "Blame me this time, it's because I didn't think about it." ”

At that time, this idea just flashed in Qin Yu's mind, but Qin Yu directly used it.

Qin Yu hadn't even thought about the consequences, so now he could only fill in while thinking about it.

When the two girls heard Qin Yu's words, they all rolled their eyes at Qin Yu.

One didn't think about it well, and it directly caused Cangxian County to lose a lot of income.

Qin Yu also felt a little embarrassed, coughed twice, and continued: "Moreover, it just so happens that I don't plan to sell grain anymore. ”

"At present, our granary in Cangxian County also needs to hoard grain, even if there is no such thing, it must be transformed."

The two girls looked at Qin Yu quietly, thinking that Qin Yu was still making up for herself.

Qin Yu didn't care, and continued: "Although the loss is big this time, I still have a way to make up for it. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Ling'er's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "What do you think, tell me quickly!" ”

"We sell paper, books, and glass!" Qin Yu said sonorously.

Today's papermaking in Cangxian County, after several technological innovations, is very close to the paper used in the previous life.

Nowadays, the cost of paper is very cheap, and it can be sold at a low price.

Moreover, Qin Yu has already begun to prepare for movable type printing, and the craftsman's workshop has already begun to make movable type modules.

to print books on paper, make them into books, and sell them all over the world.

At that time, with the wide dissemination of paper and books, it can also improve the knowledge level of people in the world.

I can even use this as a cornerstone to infiltrate the culture of various countries.

Besides, this glass is actually glass, in this era, but the old nose is valuable.

Glass, in fact, does not require that much technology.

As long as the temperature is enough to melt the sand, and when it cools and solidifies, it's done!

Hearing that Qin Yu could make glass, the two girls looked at Qin Yu in shock.

"Are you sure you can really make glass?" Li Yue even stood up.

Li Yue never had this glass, only his father had a glass cup, which was hidden as a treasure, and he couldn't even touch it.

"It should be able to be built, at least seventy percent sure."

Qin Yu didn't finish his words, so if he couldn't do it, he wouldn't be too disappointed.

Zhao Linger is concerned about another question, "What is the cost of manufacturing glass, is it high?" ”

"Don't say it's a secret, like you did before! I asked you about the cost of the mirror and you said so. ”

"The cost shouldn't be high." Qin Yu said, "The raw material for making glaze is basically just sand, and other than that, the temperature is extremely high. ”

"Sand?" The two women looked at Qin Yu, their eyes full of doubts?

"Can sand really make glass?" Li Yue asked suspiciously.

Liuli, what a precious thing, it was made of sand, who would believe it.

Qin Yu saw the doubts of the two women, but he couldn't explain it clearly.

"I can't explain this, anyway, you just have to wait and see, of course, there is a possibility that it will not be made."

"Forget it." Zhao Linger said, "Even if there is no glass, just selling paper will have good benefits." ”

"As for selling books, it shouldn't make much money, but it's a good thing, and we still have to do it."

Zhao Ling'er didn't know about printing, so he thought that the book had to be copied word by word.

Therefore, the cost of the book will be high, and the price will be raised.

At that time, the rich will be able to afford it, but the rich have it in their homes, so there is no need to buy it on paper.

These books, at best, are just a kind of display of paper.

But if Qin Yu used printing, the cost would not be so high.

With the addition of cheap paper, the price of a book is much cheaper than a roll of bamboo slips.

When the time comes, civilians will be able to afford books.

Qin Yu sighed in his heart, remembering the novels he had read before, what the protagonist liked to say the most was to establish a heart for heaven and earth, a life for the people, a continuation of learning for the saints, and peace for all generations.

But it was nice to talk about it, but in reality, they never thought that civilians could afford to read? Does anyone teach civilians to read?

They just talk about it, pretend to be a wave, reap the worship of the front, and then there is no follow-up.

I don't say this kind of pretending words, I only know that reading is the right and obligation that everyone should have.

At this time, Lao Huang ran in.

"My lord! Xiao He and Nahe Zhuge are back! ”

Hearing Lao Huang's words, Qin Yu frowned.

It's only been half a month, although Huai County is small, but if you want to understand the entire Huai County, half a month is obviously not enough.

"These two boys, they can't endure hardship, and they ran back ahead of schedule?" Qin Yu frowned and walked out.
