Quick travel to save a miserable life

Lin Hui saw Mr. Lin walking around the house constantly and couldn't come up with an idea, so she couldn't help but suggested: "Dad, since our family doesn't have the strength to keep it, let's offer it up!"

Mr. Lin thought for a moment after hearing this, and then his eyes couldn't help but shine. Yes, since it is destined to be impossible to keep secret, it is better to just dedicate it to the court. There will always be some indication from above, and it can also win protection for his family.

So, he asked Master Hu to work hard for a few more days to find ways to improve the details of movable type printing and carve more single characters.

Three days later, Master Hu was ready. Master Lin asked him to pack up everything he needed, put it in a big box, and go with him to visit Magistrate Huang.

Magistrate Huang was still wondering what Mr. Lin could do to him. After Mr. Lin asked Master Hu to demonstrate the method of movable type printing to him, Magistrate Huang, as a scholar, immediately saw the mystery of this thing.

Magistrate Huang was originally from an ordinary family. He was able to become an official because of the wealthy businessmen who came to get married after he passed the exam. Thanks to the support of his in-law family, he was able to pass the exam and pass the exam. Before he passed the exam, his family had problems. Because he was studying, his life was quite tight, and he was also a frequent visitor to the bookstore to copy books.

Seeing this movable type printing machine, County Magistrate Huang repeatedly praised it, and even tried to type and print it himself. When he saw the finished product, he couldn't help but clasped his hands and laughed: "Okay, okay, this is really a good thing that benefits the country and the people." ah!"

After calming down, County Magistrate Huang looked at Mr. Lin beside him with sharp eyes: "I know what you want, don't worry, I will use this thing to get an amulet for your Lin family!"

Mr. Lin was overjoyed when he heard this, so he bowed to him sincerely. Magistrate Huang did not refuse when he saw this, so he accepted it.

After Mr. Lin returned home, he told Lin Hui about the meeting with Magistrate Huang. Both of them hoped that the officials above would be more reliable and implement the benefits to the Lin family.

Two months passed in a flash, and it was almost the end of the year. There had been no news since the technology of movable type printing was presented. Although Mr. Lin and Lin Hui were anxious, they could not ask County Magistrate Huang, so they had to wait patiently for the result.

On the morning of the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, a county government official rushed to the Lin family to report that an angel would come to the Lin family later to deliver a message, asking the Lin family to quickly clean the house and put up the incense table in preparation for the reception.

Although Mr. Lin and Lin Hui had already guessed, they couldn't help but panic when the day came. While ordering all the servants in the house to tidy up, they went to change their clothes and prepare to receive the angel.

After less than half an hour, a group of people arrived at the door of Lin's house. They were a group of forbidden troops and an internal eunuch. Magistrate Huang and several government officials were also accompanying them. The internal eunuch, who was about thirty or forty years old, had a pale face. No beard, with a serious look on his face, he waited until everyone in the Lin family knelt on the ground before he began to read out the imperial edict.

Lin Hui didn't quite understand many of the clichés at the beginning, but she understood them later. The Holy Spirit was grateful for the Lin family's dedication to movable type printing, and gave him a plaque, a hundred taels of gold, and exempted the Lin family from paying taxes on their existing land for three years.

After promulgating the imperial edict, the face of the internal prison officer lost the serious look before, with a slight smile, and asked Mr. Lin and Lin Hui to stand up.

Master Lin took the imperial edict with both hands and handed it to Butler Qi to put away. He talked with the eunuch and asked for his name. He learned that his surname was Li. He was busy and saw Li. When he saw him talking, he said he wanted to leave. Naturally, Master Lin could not let him go. , and quickly invited Li Naijian and County Magistrate Huang to serve tea in the flower hall, saying that it was cold, so it would not be too late to have a cup of hot tea before leaving.

Internal Supervisor Li and Magistrate Huang only stayed in the Lin Mansion for two-quarters of an hour before returning to the county office. Before leaving, Mr. Lin paid a large tribute to Internal Supervisor Li, which was a 200-tael silver note. , a group of forbidden soldiers who followed also received five taels of silver ingots each, which was considered as the hard work expenses for this mission. As for County Magistrate Huang, it was nothing. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future, so there was no rush.

Although he gave away so much money, Mr. Lin was also happy. In decades, the Lin family was the first family in Yongning County to receive an imperial decree and receive an imperial plaque. How could he not be happy!

After all the people had left, Mr. Lin completely let go of the joy on his face. He took the imperial edict and looked at it non-stop. Then he opened the red silk on the imperial plaque and faced the four "Most Good People" on it. He looked left and right, and he would not have given up if Lin Hui had not come to remind him.

So Mr. Lin ordered people to hang the plaque of "The Most Benevolent Family" given by the emperor at the gate of Lin Mansion, set off three firecrackers in a row, and gave two months' monthly payment to all the servants in the manor. , and also ordered people to hold baskets at the door, and sprinkled large amounts of wedding money as much as they wanted, making the people passing by feel happy.

With the arrival of the angel, a plaque was hung on the door of the Lin Mansion. The news that the Lin Mansion was awarded gold and a plaque by the emperor for his contribution to movable type printing also spread. In the afternoon, many people came to congratulate him. For a time, There was an endless stream of cars and horses coming to Lin Mansion Gate.

Mr. Lin was busy from lunch until the sun was about to set, and then all the people who came to congratulate him were sent away. In the afternoon, he drank several pots of tea and went to the hut several times.

During dinner, Lin Hui looked at Mr. Lin who was tired but smiling, and said with a smile: "Dad, don't worry now!"

Mr. Lin is also very proud. The Lin family has never had such glory before: "With this imperial plaque, ordinary people will not dare to take ideas from our family. The Lin family can be guaranteed to be safe for the time being!"

Taking advantage of Mr. Lin's happiness, Lin Hui added: "In that case, why not we take this opportunity to reorganize the Lin family. Only when we are stronger can we stand more firmly."

Because it was Lin Hui who came up with the method of movable type printing and contributed it, the Lin family received many benefits. Mr. Lin felt that his daughter was not only smart, but also a lucky star. Now, no matter what Lin Hui said, Mr. Lin thought it was good, so Let her go and do it.

So, just after the New Year, Lin Hui began to reorganize the house again, promulgated a series of family laws and rules, formulated relevant reward and punishment measures, and ordered a courtyard to be cleared between the inner and outer courtyards, and invited a Tong Sheng sat in charge and asked the servants under the age of 40 in the mansion, regardless of gender, to take turns to learn literacy and arithmetic. There were assessments every month. If you did well in the exam, you would naturally be rewarded. If you did not do well in the exam, there would be corresponding punishments. For a long time, the servants of Lin Mansion were both in pain and happiness.

Although everyone knows that literacy is good, not everyone can bear the patience to study. There are some who seize the opportunity to study hard, and naturally there are also those who just make up for it, but it depends on personal nature.

While the servants all over the house were busy adapting to the new regulations and learning to read, Lin Hui was worried about how to get the sweet potatoes, corns and potatoes out of the space.

She had not thought carefully before and wanted to plant thousands of acres of land at once, but then she thought about it and realized that it was impossible.

She couldn't explain the source of these seeds alone. She was not alone. Even in the house, she was accompanied by at least three or four people. When she went out, there were even more people around her. It was really impossible to create them out of thin air. A lot of seeds came. In order to make the seeds appear reasonably, she thought of many ways, but after careful consideration, she secretly overturned them. It was not until the second day of the second lunar month that there was a slight improvement.
