Your majesty is awesome

Chapter 300 Already Buried?Then there is nothing Sajia can do (second watch)

Gao Zhang rolled his eyes, Cai Laoliu's face darkened, he didn't know what he was muttering, but he sat down calmly.

It was only then that Gao Zhang got up his temper and continued to tell the story to the pair of crouching dragon and phoenix chicks.

"The person who invented this printing technique is called Bi Sheng. Unfortunately, he has already left before this printing technique has been implemented."

"You actually left, brother Guizhang, just tell me, even if the world is far away, the Sa family can help you catch him back."

Tong Zhisheng slapped the table with a haughty face, as if he was willing to do anything for his friend.

Gao Zhang looked deeply at this vulgar warrior with a face full of emotion.

"I said, brother, what is your expression?"

Seeing Gao Zhang's eyes, Tong Zhisheng couldn't help tilting his head, as if he wanted to pour out the drink in his head.

"Thank you brother Zhisheng for your help, but it's better not to alarm Bi Sheng who has already settled down."

"It's buried already? Then there's nothing Sajia can do, the most he can do is recite the mantra for him a few more times."

Gao Zhang didn't want to deal with this thick-skinned man, but he needed these two thoughtless thick-skinned ones.

I could only continue to use my cadenced voice to continue telling stories to these two angelic investors.

When I heard that it is no longer necessary to make an engraving block for each page as in the past, but directly make lead type, and then inlay it into a suitable frame, which can be directly used for printing.

In this way, as long as enough movable type is engraved, the next step is to take orders, and then print like crazy.

After all, the envoy of the Liao Kingdom has been swayed by the sinister Gao Zhang, and he has begun to discuss the big business of book publishing.

In this day and age, book printing is also a big business for Te Niang. Instead of giving this big business to others, it is really better to hold it in your hands.

Seeing the bright eyes of this pair of crouching dragon and phoenix chicks, they pulled up their clothes and rolled up their sleeves, wishing they could end up doing printing in person.

Knowing that the work of fanning the flames was almost done, Gao Zhang showed a helpless expression and spread his hands.

"However, we don't have a printing workshop now, let alone a large number of craftsmen.

Brother Zhisheng, junior brother, I have been thinking hard for a long time, but I can't find a suitable solution..."

"Therefore, only two of you can work hard on this matter. If you can get three to five hundred skilled craftsmen, there is also a printing workshop of sufficient scale.

Then we can continue to win the business of selling books to the Liao Kingdom under the name of Kaifeng Metal Workshop. "

Cai Laoliu expressed quite confidently that it was just a printing workshop, and he was a dignified little man, Cai's unicorn, and he could get it with just one look.

As for the craftsman, hehe, Tong Zhisheng patted his chest confidently. His stepfather Tong Guan happened to have a lot of say in the workshop there.

Nowadays, the outsourcing of ordnance has caused the income of workshops inside and outside the imperial court to drop sharply.

The imperial court is considering reducing too many craftsmen, and his stepfather Tong Guan once mentioned this matter at home. In this case, not to mention three or five hundred, even one or two thousand craftsmen are not feasible.

Hearing what Tong Zhisheng said, Gao Zhang was immediately delighted, ouch, this is such a mother, someone brought a pillow when she wanted to sleep.

I still have a lot of big businesses that need craftsmen, even if they are not professional craftsmen, it doesn't matter.

After all, the division of labor of craftsmen in this era is not as specialized as that of later generations. Just like the workshops of craftsmen inside and outside, they can not only make bows and arrows, but also process leather products.

As long as there are old masters leading the way, with their nimble hands, they will definitely be able to eat.

Immediately, Gao Zhang began to discuss carefully with this pair of powerful eunuchs and treacherous sons. In a word, the sooner the better.

#####
The envoy of the Liao Kingdom, Xiao Fengxian, also received a birthday gift from the Liao Kingdom three days before the birthday of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Ji, who was going to present it on the day of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty.

That is ten sets of Daliao iron riding gear, ten good horses, and two hundred loose horses.

The so-called loose horses are those horses that are raised on the grasslands of the Daliao Kingdom and have not been trained.

And those ten good horses are good treasures that have been trained for a long time and can be used directly for marching and fighting.

And it was Xiao Taosuwo, the confidant minister next to Emperor Daliao, who came here with this heavy and solid birthday gift.

The reason why the emperor of Daliao sent his confidant ministers to the state of song was naturally because he still had doubts in his heart.

After all, although Xiao Fengxian and Na Yelu Hongguang made a strong promise, many officials in the court felt that it was the two of them bragging, maybe it was because of their dereliction of duty, to cover up their incompetence.

Hearing the news brought by Xiao Tao Suwo, Xiao Fengxian cursed angrily on the spot.

In the end, he had to find his brother with a different surname again, Gao Zhang, the prodigy of the Song Dynasty, and the confidant minister of the Emperor of the Liao Dynasty also admired a wave of new weapons and secret artifacts of the Song Dynasty.

In the end, Xiao Tao Suwo, who had the secret decree of the emperor of the Liao Kingdom, understood that Xiao Fengxian was not bragging about the Song Dynasty without thinking, but that the Song Dynasty really came up with something real.

In the days that followed, the two sides launched intense discussions and negotiations on the issue of coin trade and trade in wool, sheepskin and other products.

Fortunately, the Liao State hopes to use lucrative trade to paralyze the Song State, so that the Song State cannot afford to attack Liao.

So the progress of the negotiations can be described as quite fast.

However, under the deliberate concealment of Gao Zhang and the Emperor of Song Dynasty, the court officials of the Song Dynasty did not know that the Liao Kingdom had changed their purpose of sending envoys to the Song Dynasty.

From time to time, there are still some ministers and labor unions in the court, persuading the officials to solve the issue of the envoys of the Liao Kingdom as soon as possible.

Stop the war with Xixia, return Xixia's prisoners of war and land, so that Song Dynasty will no longer spend state taxes in vain to regain the old land of the past, but should use these money to do something serious.

Facing such court disputes, the official Zhao Ji will always put aside the disputes, or the same sentence, before the Longevity Festival, I don't want to talk about these things.

With such a bad performance, there is really no better way for a group of ministers to do so than roll their eyes.

#####
Finally, Zhao Ji, the official family of the Song Dynasty, ushered in his birthday, which is the Longevity Festival of the Song Dynasty (it is said that the Song Dynasty was called the Thousand Spring Festival, and for the sake of understanding, it is collectively called the Longevity Festival).Taking the meaning of longevity without boundaries, it is a national festival.

Celebrating the emperor's birthday is an important etiquette activity in the ancient court.Especially for the Song Dynasty, a dynasty that likes to make big scenes the most, the emperor's birthday has also become a grand festival for the whole people to enjoy.

And there are many ways to call it. For example, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin set his birthday as "Long Spring Festival", Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi set his birthday as "Shouning Festival", Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng set his birthday as "Chengtian Festival" ".

On the day of the emperor's birthday, a grand birthday ceremony must be held, and all civil and military officials and envoys from all nations will be entertained to celebrate the emperor's blessings.

And today, from early in the morning, the official Zhao Ji has already arrived in front of the Daqing Palace where the lights and festoons have already been decorated and all preparations have been made...

PS: There are still two updates today, I hope tomorrow will be fine...
