Chapter 160 Done
Guanshi Li was shocked that Yuxian knew clay movable type. Yuxian smiled and said, "Guanshi Li, please rest assured. This movable type printing is exclusive to the imperial court. I will not disclose it. I also learned about it by accident. However, The clay type is a bit big. We want to print instructions, preferably very small, to save paper, after all, the instructions are attached to the medicine. That's why I asked Li Guanshi if he has lead type." Of course Yuxian understood , this one in front of me is afraid that she will reveal the secret.If it weren't for the fact that movable type printing is a national monopoly, she would have built a printing workshop by herself, which is guaranteed to be much better than the current one.

"Girl, we also have the movable lead type you mentioned. It was left over from the previous dynasty, and it is very small. We generally don't use it to print books. So all these years, it has only been stored in the warehouse and not used. I don't know how the girl knows about this kind of movable type, it's a secret in our court." Manager Li had a guarded look on his face, if it wasn't for Mr. Fang who was standing by, he might have arrested Yu Xian directly.

"Guard Li, don't worry, I read it from books too. Don't they all say that the movable type was brought from the West?" Yu Xian remembered that the printing technique was spread abroad and then brought back after being improved, but In this time and space, I don't know what's going on. After all, someone has changed history.

"No, it was created by the emperor of the previous dynasty. Although many things were destroyed when the previous dynasty collapsed. However, I guess I forgot about the movable type, so it was preserved." Li Guanshi Hearing Yuxian say this, he was relieved.

"Guard Li, can you print the instructions for us with movable type?" Fang Yun said from the side.

"I can't make up my mind about this matter. How about this, you guys wait for a while, I'll go find Mr. Zhong, he's the one here who has the final say." After saying that, Manager Li went out.

"Master, he won't find someone to arrest me, will he? In order not to let me reveal the secret, arrest me, and then, Tie." Yuxian made a beheading gesture with her hand on her neck.

Before Fang Yun could speak, Master Fang laughed. "Fang Yun, you little apprentice is really funny. You are smart and have a weird mind. I don't believe that the people I brought would dare to do this? Little girl, just don't worry."

Yuxian shrank her neck, snuggled up to Fang Yun's side, and stopped talking.

After about two quarters of an hour, two people came in.One was dressed in an official uniform. After entering, he exchanged a few words with Mr. Fang.Yuxian understands that this printing factory is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry, and Mr. Zhong is the person in charge of the Ministry of Industry here.

Mr. Zhong is just a small official from the sixth rank, while Guozijian Jijiu is from the fourth rank.Although there is not much contact between the two places, they still have to be respectful and respectful to each other. "Lord Fang, the steward has just said that the movable type can be used. As long as Mr. Fang's paper is in place, the printing can start."

When Master Fang heard this, he laughed, "Okay, let's go back and prepare the paper. Here, there is Mr. Lao Zhong. By the way, Fang Yun is serving wine at Qingyaju in the evening. Your Excellency, please come here for the honor. After finishing speaking, he got up and walked out, and Fang Yun's master and apprentice followed.

"Don't dare, I will definitely go, I will definitely go." Master Zhong sent them out from behind.

After leaving the printing factory, Master Fang said: "Little girl, I think you are quite smart, why don't you come to study in the Imperial College, we also accept female students."

Yuxian was taken aback for a moment, she never expected that someone would send her to the Imperial College.However, it's better not to go with this thing, she just wants to be with her parents and family and live a stable and happy life.If you arrive in the capital, if someone sees anything, it will be a dead end.In Yanjiang Village, the folk customs are simple and honest, and the villagers all watched her grow up.Even if she is a little out of line, everyone just thinks she is smart.And the old grandma in the dream will come to fulfill it, and it won't be a big deal.When I got outside, I didn't dare to say it. "Thank you for your kindness, sir. I'm just a little girl, I just want to be with my parents, and I don't want to come so far away. Besides, the master's medical skills are enough for me to learn. If I come to study again, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it."

"It's a pity, it's a pity, such a good seedling. Okay, when you want to come, just ask your master to find me. Okay, I have to go back, Fang Yun, just come to me if you have anything to do, go and see for me Rong'er." With that said, the man got into the carriage and left.

Fang Yun carried Yuxian onto the horse, and the two rode to Tongrentang. Yuxian was a little puzzled, "Master, did I overdo it just now, so that adult wants me to go to school?"

Fang Yun just laughed: "Yuxian, you don't understand, my dynasty pays the most attention to the cultivation of talents. Before the fall of the previous dynasty, the emperor once said that if a young man is wise, the country will be wise; if a young man is strong, the country will be strong. This The saying has been widely spread. After the founding of our dynasty, we also attached great importance to this. In addition, when the previous dynasty collapsed, a large number of relatively advanced things were all destroyed, and a large number of craftsmen were killed. Those things were to revitalize the court. It is a good thing to strengthen the national power. So the imperial court has a special institution to study the things of the previous dynasty. The main force of these studies is some talented and intelligent children. In the Imperial College, there is a special school for them to use their intelligence. Some decrees in my court are to emphasize the cultivation of young people. You are considered smart in Yanjiang Village, but I think it’s a bit too much. In fact, there are too many children smarter than you in the capital. What about reciting poems at the age of three? They're all ordinary. Don't worry, in the Cangyu Dynasty, there are many people who are so clever that they are monstrous, and you are definitely not the first. This is why I am never too surprised by your weird ideas."

After hearing this, Yuxian's admiration for that great man from the previous dynasty really reached its peak, it's too good.If the Chinese can always maintain this mentality and focus on developing the wisdom of the people, there will never be a day when they lag behind others.It turns out that I'm not considered a monster, that's great.She has been wondering whether her performance in the past few years has been a bit too much.There was nothing to worry about now. "Master, what did these people create?"

"Well, it's too confidential for us to know. However, in the past few years, some civilian items have been promoted in the capital. Such as soap, matches, glass, cement, etc., are already available, and there are others. I can't think of it right now. By the way, printing, after the past few days are over, I'll take you for a stroll. Printed cloth is very popular in the capital now, and there are five or six colors of printing and dyeing." Fang Yun thought about it In one go, a few relatively new things were mentioned.

When Yuxian heard it, oops, thank goodness she never planned to use these things to make money.Otherwise, it will not be able to catch up with the research conducted by the state, and then it will have to lose money.It seems that I really have to go shopping and buy some soap or something to go home. How convenient it is to do laundry.

Back at Tongrentang, Yuxian went to teach Shunzi Pinyin.Fang Yun, on the other hand, was preparing some things for the evening treat, mainly preparing a gift for Mr. Zhong, which was a necessary means.

The next day, Fang Yun led Yuxian to Hao Yuniang's paper workshop, and told the people there what kind of paper they needed.Yuxian wanted a kind of paper with dark patterns, and this dark pattern was the icon of Tongrentang.Yuxian drew the icon, and the manager of the workshop said, "Don't worry, girl, this small matter is not difficult to handle. After three days, you can come and see how it looks."

After leaving the paper workshop, they went to the silver building.If you want to make those silver cards, of course you can do it in the silver building.Yuxian looked at the silver building. In front of it were the pavements of five houses. The inside was magnificent and filled with various gold and silver ornaments.

When the shopkeeper came out and saw that it was Fang Yun, he saluted respectfully and then asked what was the matter.Fang Yun told the shopkeeper what he was going to do, and the shopkeeper smiled, "Master Fang, this is simple. To ensure the hardness of the silver card, it should not be too thick. You can use an alloy, and it doesn't cost much. Just make the card, and then engrave the number you said on it, it’s not too complicated, I’ll make it for you right away as much as you need for this thing.”

Fang Yun thought for a while and decided to make [-] sheets first.The shopkeeper said, "After five days, you can come and pick up the goods."

Yuxian didn't expect this to be so simple.She also asked the owner of the silver building to make a set of letters and numbers, which can be made after the mold is carved, and the owner of the silver building agreed.In the following days, Yuxian taught Shunzi pinyin with peace of mind, but fortunately Shunzi was very smart and could learn it well.Yuxian wrote down the pinyin and made it into a booklet for Shunzi to use.

Yuxian and Fang Yun ran back and forth between the printing workshop and the paper workshop for a few days.Finally, on the seventh day, Mr. Zhong printed the first batch of instructions.Yuxian picked it up and looked at it. The handwriting is clear and the printing is exquisite, which is very good. "Thank you, Mr. Zhong."
"What's the matter, girl, it's the first time we've used this movable lead type, and we didn't expect the effect to be so good. It seems that we should report it to the imperial court. Printing like this can save a lot of paper. Don't worry, Mr. Fang, we only accept your family here. The manual list, based on the reputation of Tongrentang, this manual will not be printed less." That Mr. Zhong knows that if this matter is reported, he will have a lot of credit, why didn't he know to try this thing before? ?
"Then please leave Mrs. Zhong and Manager Li. Fang still has some things to do, so I will leave first. I will take this batch of instructions back, and I will let the shopkeeper of Tong Ren Tang order a batch of instructions in the future." Said, master and apprentice The two left.
Finally, after finishing all these things in Tongrentang, Yuxian had time to visit her little uncle.Fang Xin has to enter the palace every day, but usually she can go home in the late afternoon.So Yuxian arrived at Fang Xin's house at the end of noon that day.

As soon as Yuxian arrived, she saw a carriage going this way, and when she got there, a person got out of the carriage, and it was Fang Xin. "Little uncle." Yuxian shouted happily.

As soon as Fang Xin got out of the car at the door of his house, he heard someone calling him.Looking forward, isn't it Yuxian from the elder sister's family?Standing next to her was Yuxian's master, Shopkeeper Fang. "Brother, Yuxian, why are you here? When did you arrive in Beijing?"

Yuxian threw herself in front of her little uncle, Fang Xin bent down and picked up her niece, "Yuxian is sinking again. Brother, hurry up, go into the yard, let's have a good chat." Holding Yuxian, he walked into the yard, Fang Xin Yun followed into the yard.

Yuxian looked at the yard, it wasn't too big, it was just a yard with two entrances.There are quite a lot of rooms inside, and several servants greeted them outside.I only saw two women, no girls. "Little uncle, is this yard rented?"

"No, it was given by the emperor. I am alone, so big is just right. Even the servants in the mansion are given by the emperor. Generally, the court has a set rule, and I have nothing to do. It is useless if there are too many people, so I didn't buy it myself." Fang Xin explained.

Yuxian thought to herself, this should be the person sent by the emperor to observe by the way, not to say surveillance.However, as long as the little uncle has nothing to hide, there is nothing to be afraid of. "Little uncle, I left in a hurry this time. I forgot to tell my grandma, and I didn't bring you anything. I'm sorry."

"Silly girl, uncle is in the capital, and he doesn't need anything, what else do you need to bring?" Fang Xin tapped Yuxian's little nose. "Go back and tell your mother that I'm fine in Beijing, so don't worry about me." After entering the room, Fang Xin put Yu Xian down. "Brother, please sit down." Fang Yun sat down.

Fang Xin would naturally ask the purpose of coming to the capital, and Fang Yun talked about Jishitang.After hearing this, Fang Xin came to a sudden realization, "It turns out that this Tongrentang is my brother's property, but it is prosperous enough. Even the palace uses Angongniuhuang pills and Liushen pills. Is it because someone in Beijing is optimistic about it? Buying and selling of money. It’s okay, I’ll take some time to point out those people. Although I’m not a big official, I’m still in front of Shengjia. It’s convenient for me to say anything, and they don’t dare to offend me too much.”

"Then thank you brother Xin, who else am I thinking of looking for?" Fang Yun quickly thanked.

"Thank you? You are my eldest sister's brother-in-law, my elder brother. It is rare that we have the same surname, so we are naturally a family. Besides, there is Yuxian in it, and I must take care of it. Unexpectedly, our Xiaoyu Xian is also a rich woman." Fang Xin teased Yu Xian.

"It's still in its infancy, so Yuxian's members can only be inside first. When everything gets better, isn't Yuxian a rich woman?" Fang Yun also laughed.

Yu Xian ignored these two people, but remembered that she actually brought something to Fang Xin.Just opened the burden, inside is a ginseng tree, and a box of snow clam oil.Fang Xin doesn't need these two items, but they can be given away. I believe that most people don't have these things. "Little uncle, this is the ginseng we dug in summer, and this is the snow clam oil we obtained in autumn. I'll bring you some, and it's good to keep it as a gift."

"What a big ginseng tree, Yuxian, you should keep it. There are too many places to spend money at home, and I don't need it if I keep it here." Fang Xin saw a ginseng tree, he had never seen such a tree. big one.

"Little uncle, you can stay at ease, there are still some at home." Yu Xian talked about their summer release to the mountains.I also said that Fang Yun helped sell ginseng last time.

"No wonder, Prince Jing presented a ginseng tree to the emperor a while ago. I heard it was very big. The emperor was happy for a long time. This is a treasure. It can save lives in critical times. It turned out that our little Yuxian was digging it. Well, Yuxian really The thing is that they are getting more and more capable. But since you have bought money, you should buy some land, which is the foundation." Fang Xin was naturally happy for Yuxian's family after hearing this.

"I bought it. Uncle, you don't even know. I was interested in a piece of land, and I asked my father to buy it. In the end, I spent all the money for buying ginseng. After a long time of trouble, I made a piece of land." Yuxian was aggrieved Complain to Fang Xin.

"Brother Xin, don't listen to what Yuxian said there. The land they bought is a mountain forest with a total of [-] to [-] acres. Can you spend less money?" Fang Yun said from the side.

Only then did Fang Xin understand, and only then did she feel relieved, thinking that someone gave her a bear.The three chatted happily, and Fang Yun talked about Yuxian being kidnapped by bandits, which scared Fang Xin enough.He quickly hugged his niece in his arms, looked left and right, and then let go when he saw that there was nothing serious.

"Little uncle, it's been nearly 20 days. Even if she was injured, she has already recovered. What are you looking at?" Yuxian thought it was funny, but she was also touched by so many people loving her . "I'm going to practice martial arts with Uncle Yuan in the future. When I'm good enough, who will dare to provoke me?" Yuxian's biggest wish now is not to make money, but to grow up quickly and learn the most powerful martial arts. To be a chivalrous woman.

A servant outside said that the food was ready, so Fang Xin asked Yuxian and Fang Yun to have a meal.After dinner, Fang Xin asked them to stay here, Yuxian and Fang Yun didn't do anything, and today they agreed to go to Haoyu's mother's place. I haven't seen Haoyu for a few days, and I was a little panicked.It's not easy for Fang Xin to stay, and besides, he doesn't have a girl or something, and it's not convenient for Yuxian to stay.

It was getting dark outside, Fang Yun led Yu Xian out from Fang Xin, and the sky began to snow.Fang Xin asked Yuxian when she would leave, and Fang Yun told him within ten days, Fang Xin kept it in mind.Fang Yun carried Yuxian onto the horse, and then he went up too.Wrapping Yuxian with a big cloak, he rode his horse and walked north of the city, out of the city gate, and ran directly to Zhuangzi.

Haoyu was very happy to see Fang Yun and Yuxian.He held Yuxian's hand and asked this and that, for fear that Yuxian would be wronged.Fang Yun couldn't laugh or cry, "Haoyu, Yuxian is my apprentice, why can't I treat her badly?"

"Uncle, you are a big man, how can you take care of children. Especially Yuxian is a girl, and you can't take care of her well." Haoyu pouted.

"Brother Haoyu, there is Chunlan in Tongrentang, have you forgotten? I'm fine. Let's go see my aunt, is she better?" Yuxian said as she walked into the room.

"Is it Yuxian? Come in quickly and let my aunt see you." Hao Yuniang heard it from the room, and called out to Yuxian.

"Aunt, Yuxian is here to see you." Yuxian pushed the door open and entered the room. "Auntie is feeling better?"

Haoyu's mother was still on the kang, but she was just sitting, and she looked ruddy
