The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

The screams outside the shed alarmed Yun Yanhui and the others, and he stood up without any surprise, "Oh, there must be a thief."

Zhihe and the three brothers were all speechless. Although they hadn't heard what Yun Yanhui and Shuangyi whispered before, judging from their appearance, they knew that it must be related to guarding against thieves.

Now that I hear the voices of Yun Beibei and strangers outside, I know what's going on...

They quickly took the lanterns and went out. Looking at them, a man in black was held down by Yun Beibei.

Yun Yan walked back and yelled at Yun Beibei, Yun Beibei turned around slowly and walked over, was led back into the bamboo fence by Yun Yan, and then closed it.

The man in black probably had his bones broken and couldn't move at all. He said in a crying voice, "Please, help me..."

Yun Yan squatted next to him, pulled off the scarf on his face, thinking that he looked familiar, it should be a local.

Zhihe was a little terrified, "Beibei is so fierce?"

When he thought that he often sat on the balcony and played with Beibei, he felt a little scared.

"He's a bear anyway, okay?" Yunyan replied, "Fat Bei is raised by others and is generally not aggressive, but we don't keep it outside because it can't control its own strength. Especially when it’s still young, outsiders are still barking.” He said, and smiled at the man in black, “Just now Beibei actually wanted to play with you, but it just so happens that it’s very fast and powerful.”

The man in black trembled, "..."

Zhihe also realized that although the fat guy was very lazy and had a strange coat color, he was still a bear.

"I don't even know what you guys think. Although my family doesn't have a dog, I have Shuangyi and Xiong. Why do you want to use this method to steal a lesson?" Yun Yan rubbed his chin back.

The man in black said painfully: "Can you send me to see a doctor first, I think I'm about to die..."

"I can't, I still have to explain." Yunyan said with a smile back, "Do you know why you can't get ahead? Because you have no eyesight! Why don't others accept this order, but you accept it recklessly Are you smart? Don’t you know how to judge the situation? It’s obvious that everyone is afraid of our family’s force, so they don’t accept it. They told you to be a hero. See, this is miserable.”

Man in black:"……"

After scolding the man in black until he was ashamed to death, Yun Yanhui stopped in satisfaction, "Okay, throw him at the gate of the temple and tell him to crawl to see the doctor by himself."

Zhisheng asked: "Yan Fei, don't we report to the officials? We should send him to Kaifeng Mansion."

"Why do you have to report to the officials?" Yun Yan said with a cold face, "Isn't it okay to let other people see how miserable he is?"

……

Ever since the man in black was thrown out of the temple gate, those paper merchants withdrew their hands all at once, so how could they dare to strike again.Even if they wanted to, no one would dare to take on the job now.

Xianglan paper is very popular in Bianliang, and the ones that are currently circulating on the market are the first batch made by Yun Yanhui. If you want it now, you can only buy it from the people who bought it before, and you may not be able to buy it yet. .Because it is a consumable, the quantity is getting less and less.

With the market so hot and hungry, many people who wanted to go through the back door came to see if Zhihe had any stock for themselves, but the answer they got was basically no.

There are exceptions, that is, Zhen and Yunyan have a good friendship.

Such as Zhao Yunchu and Zheng Ling.

When Zhao Yunchu's father was young, he was famous for both calligraphy and painting. His calligraphy is quite the essence of Erwang's calligraphy, especially Feibai is excellent, and he is good at line drawing. Naturally, he has a little pursuit of pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

The prince is now claiming to be insane, this paper is not easy to get, and it is not convenient for him to come forward, but fortunately, the princess knows that this paper seems to have something to do with Yun Yanhui, and her son is friendly with him, so she asks him to get some paper, so that he can tell him Dad is happy.

And Zheng Ling was able to get the photo blue paper because he boasted about Haikou in front of his classmates.

Zhao Yunchu and Zheng Ling actually didn't know that Yun Yanhui made this paper, they just thought that he provided the space for Zhihe, and hoped to tell Zhihe through him.

"I treat you as my own, let me tell you, in fact, this paper business is actually mine, and Zhihe is my agent." Yun Yanhui didn't want to act with Zhihe in front of them, could it be possible to keep this matter a lifetime secret? , so I said it myself.

Both Zhao Yunchu and Zheng Ling were stunned, "??

Yun Yanhui dragged out a bamboo basket from under the bed, and took two stacks of paper from it, "Now there are only tea paper and crape myrtle paper, do you think you should take half of each, or choose one of each? Hey? Why don't you talk? "

Zheng Ling said excitedly: "Brother Yan, this, did you actually make this? How can you make paper!"

uh, this...

Yun Yanhui really didn’t tell anyone about this question, it’s impossible for Zhihe and the others to ask such a question, and Zheng Ping acquiesces in the transactions he made with those businessmen traveling from north to south. After all, this is a technical thing and it’s impossible. Know it out of thin air.

At this time, Zhao Yunchu held his face and said: "Don't you know that there are geniuses and prodigies in the world? Some things may seem inconceivable to you, but for this kind of person, you can understand them just by thinking about them." He While talking, he hugged Yun Yanhui's waist and said with a blushing face, "Brother Yan is such a genius."

"..." Yun Yan's face turned black. Although it is very moving to support him so much, is it too much?

Zheng Ling asked suspiciously: "Is it true?" It's not that he doesn't believe that Brother Yan is a genius, of course Brother Yan is a genius, but can this kind of thing really be imagined?

"Of course it's impossible!" Yun Yan pushed Zhao Yunchu away, "I also learned it from others, please don't close your eyes and blow it. Alright, you guys choose paper."

Zhao Yunchu had no choice but to divide the paper with Zheng Ling resentfully, and they still chose to get half of each type.

Zhao Yunchu took the paper back to his father. After trying it, the prince said that the quality of the paper is actually average, but it is rare to have such a delicate thought, and it is a kind of enjoyment to use it.

On Zheng Ling's side, he took the paper and went back to his home first, but his father saw the paper and said, isn't this the blue paper that many people have been blowing up recently? It is indeed very beautiful, come on, give it to Dad .

If the paper was really Zhihe's, it would be fine, Zheng Ling would give it to his father, but it was made by Brother Yan, so Zheng Ling refused to give it to Zheng Xun.

Zheng Xun was so angry that he scolded him for being unfilial, and Zheng Ling ran away with the paper in his arms.

Paper is a trivial matter, no matter what, it's just paper. It's not good to defy your own father for this.Zheng Xun only felt something strange, after a little research, he found that the paper-making monk's workshop was in Yunyan's home, and he immediately had some guesses.

If it is as he expected, this paper is actually Yun Yanhui's property, then this kid is really better than blue, Zheng Xun can't help but feel a little pity.

It would be great if Yun Yanhui was a child of Zheng's family. He is precocious and wise, much better than Zheng Ling.It's a pity that he doesn't even want to have anything to do with the Zheng family now.

……

The supply of Xianglan paper in Bianliang was in short supply for three months. Immediately afterwards, other paper mills cracked the practice and produced finished products that were sold to all parts of the country, including Bianliang naturally. The quality was even better than the original product. , and there are many tricks, such as the flower paper mentioned by Zhisheng, and special wrapping paper, etc.

Although the price is more expensive, it still satisfies the market demand. Since then, the sales volume of Yunyan’s photo blue paper has dropped sharply. Fortunately, Yunyan has been observing the market all the time, and quickly dealt with the stock when he found signs of it. , and no longer produced, even sold the tools, and quit neatly.

Those paper merchants couldn't tell what it was like. It turned out that they didn't want to expand the scale, they just wanted to make a fortune during this time.

Because the government has price control, it is impossible for them to sell the paper too expensively, and the production volume cannot be increased, so the money earned during this period is quite satisfactory for Yunyan, but for these paper merchants, in fact It's nothing.

This is the end of the sale of paper. Although paper has been sold in every household, it is still called Xianglan paper because of its origin.It is conceivable that people will mention this paper a few years later and say that the monks of Daxiangguo Temple invented it.

No matter what other people think, Yunyan happily took out the money to celebrate. She was really exhausted in the past few months and had been rushing to work.

The final result is very good, it can be regarded as a lot of money.After excluding various costs and business taxes, the net profit is nearly [-] guan, even slightly higher than the average income of businessmen in this era, not to mention that if you are a farmer, you don’t know how long it will take to earn [-] guan.

Of course, they only earn three months, which is the peak period, and they don't open at other times, so it's not easy to compare with other merchants.

Yunyan went back to ask Zhi to have a big meal with them, and the fake monks ate so much that their mouths were full of oil.I also bought gifts for Zhang Shanren, the abbot and others, and they all helped a lot this time.

For the abbot, he is willing to sell this face to Yun Yanhui, so that Yun Yanhui can make a fortune by borrowing the fame of Daxiangguo Temple (at the same time, because of the name of Daxiangguo Temple, he actually also promotes Daxiangguo Temple), That's because he liked Yun Yanhui's ability and knew that Yun Yanhui would reciprocate and bring more to Daxiangguo Temple.

Sure enough, this was confirmed at the internal meeting of Daxiangguo Temple half a month later.

There was a lot of rain this year, and the bridges in some surrounding towns had problems. The government ordered the Daxiangguo Temple to be repaired. In addition, the water conservancy has been under construction for the past two years, which cost a lot of money.

Therefore, the abbot held a meeting with the senior monks of the management, hoping to find a way to increase the income.Daxiangguo Temple, just like a company, cooperates with the government to do charity, and must control the profit and loss and expand the scale.

Yun Yanhui also participated in this meeting as a non-staff member. Although he was not ordained, he was only short of it. It seemed that the whole temple agreed that he was his own.

Yunyan heard that some monks proposed to buy more land. Although there are not enough monks in the temple, people can be hired to plant the land.

This is a routine method, but the more the land is bought, the bigger the site is, which is also a challenge for the management of the temple.

At this time, Yunyan raised her hand back and said, "I think we can dig a little more out of the existing resources to see if we can superimpose the output. For example, aren't there dozens of acres of rice fields in the suburbs of the city?"

When the abbot heard the word "stacking", he felt as if he had touched something, "Brother Yan, tell me in detail."
