Chapter 133
Out of Daxing Palace.

Li Zhi and Li Shimin were silent all the way and returned to Ganlu Hall.

After entering the hall, Li Shimin seemed to have remembered something he had not done, and greeted Li Zhi.

"I still have government affairs to deal with. You can stay by yourself for a while, or you can go to accompany A Sizi. I will go to the imperial study first."

After finishing speaking, Li Shimin left in a hurry.

Only Li Zhi was left alone, messed up in the wind.

"You either came to talk to me, or you suddenly remembered and called me over."

"If I had known this, I would have gone back to the house to salt the fish until evening."

"Really..."

Li Zhi shook his head helplessly, and walked towards Li Mingda's boudoir.

Now that you have already come, there is no need to go back.

Let's go see what Li Mingda is doing now.

I came to Li Mingda's room and looked around inside.

Thinking that Li Mingda was behind the screen, he asked the court lady, "What are you doing, why didn't you see her?"

But the palace maid replied: "Princess Jinyang is looking for Princess Hengshan, she is not in the room, if you are in a hurry to find Princess Jinyang, Prince Jin, this servant will report right now."

"No need, since I went to A Yuan's place, there is no need to specially call her back, I just wait here for her."

It doesn't matter anything else, if you accidentally bring Li You back with that girl, there will be a lot of quarrels.

Rather than making noise with that girl, it's better to be alone and quiet.

After all, Li Zhi went to the table and sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and began to be bored in a daze.

He was interrupted by Li Shimin before, he hadn't figured out the meaning of the paper machine.

Now is a good time to think about how to use this thing.

Taking a sip of the tea, Li Zhi fell into deep thought.

First of all, one thing is clear.

Paper machines can greatly increase paper production capacity, simplify the papermaking process, and reduce the price of expensive rice paper.

Production capacity has increased and prices have come down. This will provide the basis for paper to become popular.

This is of great significance to the dissemination of knowledge and culture.

Leaving aside the problem of printing, even if the paper is copied by hand, can it also play a role in the dissemination of knowledge when the paper is cheap?

The only problem is that the current masters of knowledge are basically gentry.

Even if it is not a noble family, it is also a child of a poor family.

If you want ordinary people to benefit from this, I'm afraid there are many obstacles.

In this way, I'd better spread the supporting and systematic knowledge together.

Only in this way can the people at the bottom benefit.

But... this is also difficult.

The biggest problem here is not obstacles from other aspects, but that the common people themselves are illiterate, even if books are sold to them, they will not be able to read them.

So, do we still have to start training from a poor family?

It seems that this is the only thing that can be done right now.

Ordinary people even want to rise to the class of poor families, and it takes a lifetime of hard work.

There is a long way to go to cultivate them.

It's better to put your hope in the poor family first.

As for the common people, wait until I am in power.

While thinking, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door.

Li Zhi looked towards the door of the room, and saw Huang Fu holding something covered with a black cloth in his hand, stretching his head out of the door.

Seeing this, Li Zhi waved at him, "Why are you here?"

Li Zhi looked at the things in Huang Fu's hands, and asked, "What's that in your hands? It's still covered with a black cloth, so mysterious?"

Huang Fu walked into the room quickly and put the things on the table.

"It was brought by Master Zu, who will be the prisoner, and the slaves don't know."

After speaking, Huang Fu scratched his head and thought for a while, and said: "After the master craftsman delivered the things, he only said one sentence, and the edges were all polished, except when lighting the lamps, you need to be careful, so as not to accidentally hurt your hands." Other than that, nothing was said."

"Oh I got it."

Hearing what Huang Fu said, Li Zhi understood, and he waved to Huang Fu.

"Okay, I know this. You go back."

Huang Fu didn't speak, and looked curiously at the black cloth on the table, then turned and left.

After he left, Li Zhi lifted up the black cloth and took a look at the thing inside. It was a glass lampshade made of huanghuali wood.

The lampshade is in the shape of a hemisphere, just like a pot lid, and it is covered on the base made of huanghuali wood.

In the middle of the base, a red candle has been placed.

When you need to use it, you should only need to open the lampshade and light the candle.

This thing is crystal clear overall, there are no burrs on the outside, and the finished product is very beautiful.

Back then, when I was saying goodbye to Zu Xuanhao.

He just raised his mouth casually and asked Zu Xuanhao to see if he could help make a glass lamp.

Unexpectedly, this guy actually took it seriously, and really made this thing before the Shangyuan Lantern Festival.

Zu Xuanhao was determined, and it must have taken a lot of energy to get things out in such a short period of time.

It seems that if there is an opportunity in the future, it is time to support him.

Li Zhi admired it for a while, then covered the black cloth again, and left it alone.

Hesitating in his heart, should he hand over the paper machine to Zu Xuanhao and let him be in charge of production?

After thinking about it, he thought it was okay.

Let a master ceramics to manufacture mechanical parts, just think about it is picturesque.

Let's see if Zu Xuanhao has organizational skills in the future.

If he can lead the craftsmen to work, that's another matter.

While thinking, footsteps came from outside the door again.

But this time, apart from the sound of footsteps, there was also Li Youtong's chattering voice.

Hearing this voice, Li Zhi's face turned a little green.

In order to refuse to meet Li Youtong, he didn't even ask the maid to call Li Mingda back.

It turned out to be a good thing, being blocked in the house, even if you don't want to meet, you can't do it.

Li Zhi was already prepared to face the storm, and he secretly prayed that the little girl must not cry.

He is not afraid of anything, but he is afraid of Li Youtong Sapo.

This guy cried, it was earth-shattering, and just thinking about it gave people a headache.

But to Li Zhi's surprise, after Li Youtong came in, he didn't notice his existence at the first time.

Instead, his eyes lit up and he rushed towards the black cloth on the table.

"Hey! What is this? Sister, did you hide the lantern paper you made, and you don't intend to show it to me?"

Seeing Li Youtong rushing to the table, he was about to remove the black cloth.

Li Zhi stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms.

"Don't touch it! This is a surprise brought to you by Brother Jiu. If you read it in advance, it will be boring."
