I made Daqin a prosperous world

Chapter 10 The Prime Minister Can Punt a Boat

If he had been summoned a little later, Cai Lun would not be in short supply...

Li Yu said with guilt: "Jing Zhong~ I heard that you were smart since childhood, and you can read and write?"

Cai Lun replied in a low voice: "Yes, yes, Lord Xianjun."

A thought flashed through Li Yu's mind. Zhao Yun was summoned earlier, and he came with something to do.

However, Cai Lun's appearance age does not conform to the timeline of papermaking in history, and I don't know if he has papermaking technology in his mind.

With doubts, Li Yu asked tentatively: "Jing Zhong, your Majesty's imperial edicts today are all written in brocade and silk, while literati and inkmen use bamboo slips for typesetting. The former is expensive, while the latter is cumbersome and inconvenient. Do you have any good way to solve it?"

Li Yu was disappointed...

Cai Lun was puzzled, and it could be said that he became dumbfounded after listening to the guidance.

This plot is wrong, could it be that a summoning was wasted?
Li Yuwo suffocated the dog system, but gave Cai Lun an encouraging look with anticipation.

After a while, Cai Lun's immature face showed a hint of thought, and said softly: "Xianjun, the villain once used a fishing net to catch aquatic plants in the water, and I feel that if there is a way to turn aquatic plants into things that can be written, maybe..."

Li Yu's eyes lit up, as if he had grasped something, he quickly said: "Okay, you can stay in my mansion from now on, think about this issue carefully, if you can come up with a new way of writing, I will reward you very much. "

Cai Lun was a little shocked. He had just entered the palace and hadn't arranged work yet. He was invited to the mansion by the Immortal Lord of the Dynasty, and he explained a seemingly remarkable thing.

Immediately feeling the importance, Cai Lun quickly knelt down on the ground and shouted: "Thank you for your promotion, Mr. Jing Zhong will definitely think of a new way of writing."

There seems to be a big difference between the summoned literati and generals.

Li Yu couldn't help but glanced at Zhao Yun, could it be that Zhao Yun was taciturn by nature?

Li Yu shook his head and said: "Get up, now you should take a good rest and recuperate, you can choose any room in the mansion to live in, and I will still count on you to do things for me in the future."

Cai Lun was inexplicably highly regarded, and said gratefully: "The villain will definitely live up to the Lord's appreciation."

After dismissing Cai Lun, Li Yu was in a good mood, humming a little tune, and continued to stroll around his own territory.

The residence has been settled, but it is a huge house, with no maids and servants.

Thinking of this, Li Yu couldn't help complaining: This damn Li Si, can't you be more generous...

Little did he know that Li Si was already very generous, not to mention that he was forced to move, and even handed over the land deed.

This was the first time since Li Si became an official that he was so embarrassed and aggrieved.

Sitting in the lobby of his new residence, Li Si held a book of Confucianism in his hand, complaining to himself, "That's fine, now that His Majesty is practicing Confucianism, maybe the students can see their teachers again..."

Li Si abandoned Confucianism and theory, and was expelled from the door by Xunzi. Of course, it cannot be said that he was expelled, but he just closed the door and disappeared.

Now that he has gained Li Yu's favor, Li Si suddenly said: "Housekeeper, pick thirty maidservants who are sharp in hands and feet, good in appearance and good in appearance for the real minister, and prepare some money to send to the residence of the Immortal Lord and Marquis."

Li Si's housekeeper, Gu Shun, is a quick-witted person. Not only does his master not hold any grudges, he even gave gifts to the servant girl, and quickly replied: "Master is really open-minded..."

Li Si shook his head, and said to himself: What do you know? If it wasn't for Li Yu who couldn't see through the truth, and Li Yu was appreciated by His Majesty, I'm an open-minded ghost...

It took Li Yu about half an hour to visit the entire former Xiangguo Mansion, and he couldn't help saying to himself: Tsk tsk, it's all nanmu furniture, the point is that it's big enough, Li Si is really rich.

"Is Master Xianjun here?"

Li Yu raised his eyebrows, did someone call me just now?
When Li Yu reconfirmed, he saw an old man with twenty or thirty maids and servants, and moved the congratulatory gifts at the door into the inner courtyard by the way.

Without waiting for Li Yu to ask.

The old man at the head suddenly greeted him approaching, and said: "Master Xianjun, Master Xiangguo asked me to come and give you a gift, congratulations on moving into your new residence."

It turned out to be Li Si...

Li Yu couldn't help laughing and said: "What kind of new house is this, but I have to thank Mr. Xiangguo for his generosity."

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Gu Shun's face, and he said quickly: "That's right, my master knew that you didn't have any maids in your residence, so he specially sent me to send thirty maids to your house.

Of course, my master also knows that the silver reward from His Majesty has not yet been allocated. He is afraid that Master Xianjun will need to use the money, so he specially prepared a thousand taels of silver. Master Xianjun, do you see where it is suitable..."

Li Yu was taken aback for a moment, Li Si is quite generous, he just started talking about this guy's stinginess, so he gave me money...

Seeing all kinds of congratulatory gifts piled up in the inner courtyard in a short while, Li Yu said with some emotion: "As expected of a prime minister who can pull a boat in his stomach, move everything to the place where it should go. After all, old housekeeper, you are more familiar with this place than I am."

Seeing Li Yupi's smiling face but not smiling, it's really embarrassing.

The old housekeeper smiled awkwardly, nodded and said: "That villain has the guts to make decisions for Xianjun."

After finishing speaking, the old housekeeper Gu Shun sorted out those things quickly, and waved his sleeves to direct the dozens of maids and servants he brought, and within a short time, they put the pile of things in place.

Gu Shun's face was neither red nor out of breath, and with a hint of pride on his face, he asked, "Does Master Xianjun need anything else?"

other?

Is it possible that I judge the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain?
Regarding Li Si, Li Yu has reservations, not to mention that he is still hated now, that is, the period in history that killed his fellow disciple Han Feizi deserves Li Yu's attention.

Immediately shook his head and said: "Go back and thank Mr. Xiangguo for me, and I will take care of the rest."

Li Yu insisted that what was delivered to his door was not considered humane, not to mention that he needed manpower and money to take care of the mansion, so he accepted it unceremoniously.

Now the manpower is enough to maintain the daily life of the mansion, but there is still a shortage of cooks and so on.

Li Yu looked at these thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls in front of him, and couldn't help muttering in his heart: In this day and age, there is really no solution...

Li Yu couldn't help but shook his head and said: "You are all carefully selected by Li Xiangguo, so I won't say anything. The mansion is short of all kinds of talents. If anyone thinks they are doing well and are capable, You can recommend yourself, I will not treat you badly."

Looking at the young and handsome Li Yu, this group of thirteen and fourteen-year-old maids and servants still couldn't believe that it was actually a Marquis.

Probably due to his birth status, the scene was a little strangely quiet.

It wasn't until a timid girl spoke that the silence was broken.

"Your Majesty, this servant has learned cooking skills from Mrs. Wang, so she can cook!"

It doesn't matter whether the cooking is good or not, first of all, the little girl dared to speak out, it is courageous, Li Yu said with a smile: "Okay, I will leave the kitchen of the mansion to you in the future, your gentleman's stomach is very picky."

Seeing this group of timid maids being amused by the movement of touching their stomachs, they couldn't hold back their laughter.

Li Yu then waved his hand and said: "I want to go out for a while, you are more familiar with these things than I am, so let's do this first."
