Chapter 294: Papermaking Success

Back in the study, Li Yi wrote down all the things that happened during this time, including the reform of the system in Jinling County, on the grounds that it was a special case, and he believed that there was a wolf warrior as a guarantee, and Li Erhui would agree, and then he wrote all his requests, and there were six or seven thousand words written in total, and more than a dozen pieces of paper were wasted.

Then he wrote a few more private letters and asked Fang Yiai to take them back together, and because of the urgency of the matter, Li Yi specially matched Fang Yiai with three horses, so that he could travel day and night.

After solving this matter, Li Yicai turned his attention to the greenhouse vegetables. Within half a month, Li Yi had to plant vegetables in all the greenhouses. Fortunately, now Bingyu has persuaded the people of the four villages to plant greenhouse vegetables in a unified manner, with a total area of more than 2,000 acres, with this foundation, the promotion of greenhouse vegetables will be relatively easy.

However, before Li Yi could start his plan, an unexpected person brought him great news.

......

"Uncle Lin, why are you back?"

It was Lin Jiang who came, but now Lin Jiang looked extremely embarrassed, covered in tattered clothes, with a long beard, and a foul smell all over his body. However, his eyes were extremely excited, and his hands kept rubbing together to hide his excitement.

As soon as Lin Jiang saw Li Yi, he stepped forward and grabbed Li Yi and shouted loudly. "Young master, it's done, hahaha, it's done!"

Li Yi was still stunned. "What has it become?"

Immediately, Li Yi instantly thought of a possibility, swallowed and spit, his voice trembled a little, and asked uncertainly: "Uncle Lin, you mean papermaking, it's done?" ”

Lin Jiang couldn't help laughing, excited like a child. "Yes, young master, the papermaking technique is complete, and we have already made cheap paper!"

Li Yi's eyes were shining, and his lips trembled a little. Is it really done? Oh, my God! "Come on, prepare the horses!"

Li Yi couldn't help it, and he was about to set off now.

Immediately, immediately, he reacted and forced himself to calm down, he couldn't panic at this time, and he had to hurry up and arrange everything.

"Uncle Lin, you wait a minute, I'll arrange something first!"

Lin Jiang naturally couldn't object, although he also wanted Li Yi to see his results as soon as possible, but he couldn't be in a hurry.

"Come on, take Uncle Lin down to freshen up, and get Uncle Lin something to eat!"

Lin Jiang gave Li Yi a salute before retreating.

Sitting on the chair and forcing himself to calm down, the success of papermaking made Li Yi ecstatic, even more excited than coming out of the glass early, making glass can only be said to make a lot of money, and by the way, people's lives will be better, but with papermaking, it can change an era.

"Come on, inform Jiang Lichen to chase back Fang Yuai, be fast!"

"Then inform Bingyu, Wei Shuyu, Sun Xian, Lei Gang, Changle, and Jiang Lichen to come to see me. Be quick! ”

Li Yi said two things in a row, obviously, he was a little anxious!

After a while, I saw six people coming one by one, Bingyu had been by Li Yi's side, but now she was busy with the vegetable greenhouse, so she was no longer by Li Yi's side.

"Now things have changed, but it's a good thing, I can't say the specifics first, but I'm going to leave for a while, and I will come back in five days at the earliest, and during this time, you have to hurry up and arrange everything. Especially vegetable greenhouses. Sun Xian, you first cooperate with Bing Yu, prepare the money needed for the vegetable greenhouse first, if there is anything, you can handle it yourself, if you can't deal with it, just wait for me to come back! Understand? ”

As soon as the six of them entered the house, they were confused by Li Yi's words, what are they going to leave for a while, leaving at this time, isn't it a joke? However, since Li Yi said it, then they didn't dare to slack off, in order not to have an accident, the six people hurriedly told Li Yi their questions first, and Li Yi answered them one by one, and half an hour later, everyone asked all the questions clearly.

"Okay, that's the way it is, well, by the way, Lei Gang will come with me later, and then I will ask him to bring my orders back, you have to strictly implement them!"

"Understood!"

"That's good!"

......

and Changle and Bingyu are simple to the individual. Li Yi found Fang Yiai and got back the letter from him, this time he wanted to return to Beijing in person.

Then, he took Lin Jiang, Lei Gang, and more than a dozen gods to ride all the way to Maoshan on horseback. Fortunately, when Li Yi and the others came, Li Jing got him hundreds of horses, otherwise, Li Yi would not have been able to make up so many horses.

Everyone rushed all the way, and when it was noon, they rushed to Maoshan, and before they had time to say hello to Senior Brother Pan, they took the path and rushed all the way to the place where Li Yi chose the workshop at that time, where more than 20 Maoshan disciples were guarding in turn day and night, and the defense was extremely tight.

Li Yi said hello to the disciples, and walked straight to the workshop, and at this time, in the workshop, dozens of workers were discussing something in full swing, all of which Lin Jiang had found back at the beginning.

Everyone didn't know Li Yi, as soon as they heard Lin Jiang's introduction, everyone hurriedly saluted, and at the same time, there was curiosity and admiration in their eyes, the reason why they were able to succeed this time was that Li Yi gave him a general credit, so they had unusual admiration for Li Yi, who had never met him.

Li Yi didn't talk to everyone politely, but directly asked them to take out the sample paper.

Lin Jiang hurriedly asked people to take the sample paper, and Li Yi saw that they had actually prepared seven kinds of paper, which were different, with great differences in thickness, whiteness and toughness.

Li Yi carefully distinguished, the best of them is about the same as the current rice paper, or even better, and the worst is not much worse than rice paper, but thinner and more brittle.

Li Yi picked up the best piece of paper and asked. "Uncle Lin, what is the price of this kind of paper?"

Lin Jiang confirmed with everyone before saying, "Less than three articles!" ”

"What? So cheap? ”

"Well, the main thing is that there is still some waste, otherwise the price will be lower."

Li Yi looked at the paper in front of him carefully, and there was indescribable excitement in his eyes.

Immediately, he said to the workers: "Everyone, from today on, you will be the heroes of my Datang, and history will remember this moment, which is your honor!" ”

Everyone looked at Li Yi excitedly, some of them were already in tears, their papermaking skills are ancestral crafts, it can be said that they are all papermaking families, and being able to participate in the improvement of papermaking is definitely the greatest honor for them, and it is the kind of honor that can be laughed at Jiuquan.

"Everyone has contributed to my Datang, I naturally will not slack off, and every participant present will be rewarded with fifty to one hundred yuan!"

As soon as Li Yi finished speaking, there was a boiling below. They've been working all their lives, and they've never seen so much money at one time.

"However, due to the peculiarities of papermaking, you can know even if I don't say it, so, from this moment. Your personal freedom will be restricted, but in return you will receive a high monthly payment. We will also take care of your family and make sure that they have no worries about food and clothing. Although this is very cruel, it is indeed realistic, but you can rest assured, I will definitely try my best to free you as soon as possible. ”

For this decision, everyone and the glass-making workers reacted similarly, that is, aggrieved, excited, and in the end, they were willing to accept the reality, and there was no way to be reluctant, papermaking was too important, even much more important than glass-making, Li Yi had to be cautious.

After that, Li Yi found a study and wrote a lot of systems, all of which were about vegetable greenhouses and Qinhuai Water City, Li Yi wrote everything he could think of, he believed that as long as Wei Shuyu and others strictly followed this method, there would be absolutely no problem.

In the end, Li Yi instructed the disciples of Maoshan to send more manpower here, and be sure not to let anyone have any opportunity. He handed the letter to Lei Gang and asked him to take it back, so that Wei Shuyu and the others could strictly follow this method.

Then, Li Yi took the detailed methods and samples of papermaking given by Lin Jiang and embarked on a journey back to Chang'an. This time it was too big, and he had to go back in person.
