Chapter 176 Yi Xiaochuan: Lost to Zhao Che again In recent days, Lu Pheasant has been craving for boiled corn, and he can always eat a lot of them in one go.
Lu Su’s favorite is roasted sweet potatoes.
After Zhao Che and the Lu sisters talked for a while.
Xiao He came to visit.
So, Lu Pheasant and Lu Su both returned to their rooms.
Soon after, Xiao He walked in and came to Zhao Che.
When he saw Zhao Che,
There was excitement in his expression.
This is the first time we see each other again since we said goodbye to Zhao Chepei County.
"Sir, when I first met you in Peixian County, I thought that one day I could work for you, and today my dream finally came true."
Xiao He was so excited that he bowed his hands towards Zhao Che.
Since he received Zhao Che's letter a few days ago when he was in Peixian County,
He resigned from his official position without hesitation, traveled towards Xianyang at night and starry night, and finally arrived in Xianyang today.
"Brother Xiao, it is my honor to get your help."
"During this time, I opened a paper mill, and I want to hand over the management of the paper mill to you."
Zhao Che was extremely humble, looked at Xiao He, smiled slightly, and said.
In fact, he is the boss behind the scenes.
Xiao He just managed it on his behalf.
"Of course I am willing to work for you, sir, but I am a little confused about making paper? What is paper?"
Zhao Che's words made Xiao He's face full of doubts.
He had been living in Peixian County before and had little information. In addition, paper mills and paper shops were only found in Xianyang, the capital of Qin Dynasty.
Therefore, Xiao He didn't know about the paper.
"This is exactly paper, which can be used to write instead of bamboo slips."
Zhao Che said, took out a piece of paper and handed it to Xiao He's hand.
So, Xiao He took the piece of paper and looked at it carefully.
Slowly, his expression became more and more shocked.
He discovered that this piece of paper was extremely thin, the surface was very smooth, and it was white and flawless.
He also realized that paper was many times ahead of the bamboo slips and silk.
Bamboo slips are very heavy and difficult to carry.
In addition, the bamboo slips are not white, so the words written on the bamboo slips are naturally far less legible than the words written on paper.
Although silk has the advantage of being lightweight, its cost is very high, and ordinary people cannot afford silk.
"Sir, do you have a pen? Can I write a few words on this piece of paper?"
Xiao He asked extremely politely.
He couldn't wait to try writing on paper. What would it feel like? ?
It must be very enjoyable.
"The pen is here."
Zhao Che said and handed a writing brush to Xiao He.
"Then I'll start writing."
After Xiao He took the brush, he couldn't wait to write a line of words on this piece of white paper.
He found that writing on this white paper was very smooth. You only need to write lightly to write clear words.
At this moment, Xiao He was also experiencing an extremely strong shock in his heart.
He looked at Zhao Che, his eyes filled with admiration.
"Paper was invented by sir? This move by sir will benefit every citizen of the Qin Dynasty and everyone in the future generations."
Xiao He sighed the same time, he was very excited thinking about the task of managing the paper mill that Zhao Che had just assigned him.
It was a great privilege for him to manage the paper mill.
He can also take advantage of Zhao Che's honor and leave his name in the annals of history.
"Brother Xiao, you are really over the top."
"Currently, our paper mill has a very heavy task. It not only needs to provide paper for the two stores I established in Xianyang, but also many civil and military officials and dignitaries are also working in the paper mill. The reservation paper is in there.”
Zhao Che briefly told Xiao He the current status of the paper mill.
"Sir, don't worry, leave these to me and you won't be disappointed."
"Besides, in my opinion, the paper mill is a very meaningful job, so I can do it for you without any compensation."
Hearing this, Xiao He patted his chest and promised.
These are his strengths.
At the same time, he was also a little surprised in his heart, Zhao Che was indeed a good person.
Such a person is the master worthy of following and being loyal.
"Brother Xiao, you are out of touch when you say this. You work hard for the paper mill, how can I not pay you?"
Hearing this, Zhao Che smiled slightly and said.
From what Xiao He said just now, he could also see that Xiao He really liked this job.
"Sir, you are really a cheerful person. In this case, I won't shirk it."
Hearing this, Xiao He bowed his hands and said.
After bidding farewell to Zhao Che,
He immediately came to the paper mill and prepared to plan a feasible plan for the paper mill. The purpose was to speed up the progress of paper making and produce more paper in the fastest time.
After walking around the paper mill, he probably understood the process of paper making.
I sighed in my heart: "Mr.'s talent and wisdom are unparalleled in the world. The most terrifying thing is that he is only in his twenties. He is indeed a young hero since ancient times."
At the residence of Young Master Hu Hai, After Hu Hai returned to the house, he felt very aggrieved, as if he was full of breath. The anger in his heart seemed to be able to ignite the huge young master's mansion.
Today, he was treated as a coolie in the farmland, where he worked hard to break corn for a long time. I finished it after I had blood blisters on my hands and my whole body was exhausted.
The reason why he worked so hard was to take the opportunity to get some of Zhao Che's sweet potatoes and corn.
Who wants to. In the end, his work was in vain.
He came back empty-handed.
"My master has become their joke again today."
Young Master Hu Hai muttered to himself angrily.
Moreover, he sent his men to call Yi Xiaochuan and Liu Ji in front of him.
Shortly after, Yi Xiaochuan and Liu Ji both came to the young master Hu Hai and lowered their heads.
Liu Ji, who was good at observing words and expressions, could tell at a glance that the young master Hu Hai was in a very unhappy mood today.
Could it be that you suffered some stimulation again?
Liu Ji chose silence, He was afraid of angering the young master Hu Hai and causing him to get burned.
Yi Xiaochuan also noticed something was wrong and also chose to remain silent.
In addition, Prince Hu Hai had previously given him the task of purifying coarse salt into fine salt. He did not complete this task.
He was afraid that his son Hu Hai would be held accountable.
Yesterday, after racking his brains, the salt he purified was only slightly better than coarse salt.
It is incomparable to the flawless white salt as fine as gravel that Zhao Che purified.
At this point in Xiaoyan, he lost to Zhao Che again, and was severely dumped by Zhao Che for many blocks.
His mathematics, physics and chemistry are simply not as good as Zhao Che's. He was deeply aware of this after the incident of making ice with saltpeter.
