Chapter 16 Rewarding Huangzhuang
"No, no, it's too late for me to thank His Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty, I wish you to expand your territory and become a Khan soon, and I wish the empress, always have health and youth!"

Of course Li Xiao had to catch it if he got a bargain, so he quickly calmed down Li Shimin's anger with rhetoric.

It really hit the spot, Li Shimin dreamed of becoming a Khan of Heaven, an emperor through the ages, and the queen of course hoped that she would become more beautiful.

There are all kinds of people in the hall, including the happy Li Shimin, Changle, Li Gang and others.

There is also Imperial Physician Hu who has a sad face but has to smile. His career as an imperial physician is probably over.

There is also Li Chengqian with a strong face and a smile.

When Li Xiao and his father-in-law returned home, they hadn't had time to rest yet!

Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Li Jing and Fang Xuanling came together. The four of them were well-informed and knew what happened in the Lizheng Palace, and then they came to the Niu Mansion to congratulate.

Li Xiao quickly called the four uncles to sit down, and then called Niu Zhong to Fenglailou to order a table and deliver them.

There are too few servants in my family, and I don't have much preparation, so I don't have time to cook for so many people.

After drinking for three rounds, Cheng Yaojin saw that Li Xiao was still drinking with him and other people here, and said with a cheap smile, "Nephew, it's okay to drink here, why don't you write a few words and give them to us?" How are the four uncles?"

Li Jing's eyes lit up, this old Cheng was thick-skinned enough, so he asked for it directly.

"Extremely, extremely, the food hasn't arrived anyway, Shi Zan, hurry up, I just want the Three Character Classic!" Li Jing persuaded Li Xiao like a fox stealing chicken.

Li Jing's family has a long history, and he still likes literature very much, but Cheng Yaojin simply saw the value of Li Xiao's calligraphy.

When Yu Shinan heard that Li Gang had a copy of the world's most outstanding calligraphy of the Three Character Classic, he immediately went to see it, and then it spread that Yu Shinan felt ashamed.

Then, four people from Cheng Yaojin came to the door.

We must know that in today's world, Yu Shinan is the one with the highest calligraphy attainments.

Yu Shinan is good at calligraphy, and together with Ouyang Xun, Chu Suiliang and Xue Ji, they are called the "Four Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty".

Ouyang Xun died in the early years of Zhenguan, Chu Suiliang was Yu Shinan's disciple, and Xue Ji hadn't been born yet, so it is conceivable how valuable Li Xiao's good looks are, let alone full-length articles. The Three Character Classic is more valuable!
Looking at the earnest eyes of the four uncles, Li Xiao knew that he couldn't retreat, nodded in agreement, and turned back into the room to silently write the Three Character Classic for the three of them.

"Hee hee hee!" Cheng Yaojin snickered triumphantly, "Tell me, after a while, when the reputation of Master Praise spreads, how much should I sell my three-character scripture?"

"Crude! Why should good calligraphy be associated with the smell of copper!"

After Li Jing angrily accused Cheng Yaojin, he stood up and came out!

"Lao Li, where are you going? If I don't sell it, I can't do it!" Cheng Yaojin's eyes widened in confusion, why are you joking, why are you so serious, and playing the game of judging justice?
"Come out!"

"Hey, I thought you were really gone!" Cheng Yaojin drank his wine glass and looked at Niu Jinda with a smile, "Old Niu, let Shi Zan write less words in the future, you know?"

Holding the wine glass, Niu Jinda was at a loss, "If you don't practice calligraphy, how can you improve? What's your reasoning?"

Qin Qiong saw Cheng Yaojin's careful thinking, "I still don't understand, Yaojin just wants to increase the value of teacher praise calligraphy, otherwise it will be worthless if you write too much, and rare things are more expensive, Yaojin's small ninety-nine, You don't know yet, you just want to increase the price of your Three Character Classic! Vulgar!"

"Oh." Niu Jinda suddenly realized that this old Cheng is really good for business, "It's up to the master to praise himself, how can I take care of this?"

The four of them were drinking wine, and Li Jing, who came back from the ceremony, walked into the house with a stack of blank paper, "Old Niu, why did your family put the paper in the toilet?"

"Oh, Master Zan put it down. He said it was because Gong was not used to using toilet chips, and paper is more comfortable." Niu Jinda glanced at the stack of paper in Li Jing's hand. It was not as white as rice paper, but softer than rice paper, and he knew it at a glance. what is it.

"What!" Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong were so frightened that they dropped their wine glasses on the table. Li Jing stood in the room as if, "Yeah, shit, we had a good drink, why do we have to talk about this?" ?”

Seeing the fuss of the four people, Niu Jinda felt disgusted when he thought about the reincarnation of the five grains.

Li Jing became anxious, strode forward and grabbed Niu Jinda by the shoulder, "Old Niu, children are not sensible and don't know the price of paper, don't you?"

"This is a waste!"

Seeing Fang Xuanling and the others looking at him in surprise, Niu Jinda pulled Li Jing over, sat down on the table, and explained casually, "Of course I know the value of paper, but Shi Zan said that this paper is only suitable for exporting and not good for writing. No, I didn't say anything."

Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin snatched the paper from Li Jing's hand, "It's okay, it's just not as white as rice paper and softer, but writing is definitely not a problem!"

At this moment, Li Xiao finished writing the four Three-Character Classics, and came in swinging his arms.

"What are you doing, four uncles, why do you look like you want to swallow me up?"

"Boy, why do you use such good and expensive paper to wipe and use it?" Li Jing pointed to Li Xiao's nose and said angrily.

Thinking back to my uncle Han Qinhu's house, a dignified governor's house, I only used the front side of the paper and wrote on the back side, so I didn't have the opportunity to practice calligraphy. Otherwise, my calligraphy would never be what it is now!

"Uncle Li, don't be angry, this paper is more suitable for wiping your butt and writing paper, and we are researching it!"

Then Li Xiao explained to everyone, don't several shaved ice shops need a lot of bamboo cups every day?

To make bamboo cups, only the knotted parts can be used, and the rest are thrown away as waste. In addition, the cups thrown away after eating shaved ice are simply not recycled. They are used as raw materials for making bamboo paper without cutting. , One process is missing!

However, the Tang Dynasty still used Cai Lun's method of making paper, mostly bark and rags, and the literati in the Wei and Jin Dynasties processed it and added silk. The price of these papers is too expensive.

The craftsmanship is also different from bamboo paper, so Li Xiao bought a small workshop, researched it by himself, and began to benefit his own chrysanthemums!

"Self-researched?"

"Waste use?"

Knowing the cause and effect, several people breathed a sigh of relief, and they considered Li Xiao to be let go.

"That's right, it's all made in my own workshop." Li Xiao agreed anxiously, the cannibalistic eyes of the big guys really made me uncomfortable.

"That's a waste of things, such an expensive thing, to wipe your ass." Li Jing was still puzzled, he had never seen paper from poor people, and there were many children writing on the sand, so he continued to criticize Li Xiao.

"Ahem, Uncle Li, after research in the workshop, the cost of bamboo paper is less than one-tenth of that of rice paper." Li Xiao's words stunned several people again.
