Chapter Seventy-Seven: Leaving a Name in History

When Cheng Yue got up in the morning, he had already heard the sound of drills in the camps outside. This is his order, the tutorial and literacy written by the recruit to teach the veteran Cheng Yue, and the veteran to teach the recruits the combat experience. The combination of the two, coupled with strict military discipline, will be able to increase their respective combat effectiveness in the shortest possible time.

Cheng Yue rolled over and got out of bed and put on his clothes. He got up late in the morning because he had drunk a little wine, and although no one would say anything about him, he always led by example.

The four beauties on the bed were tossed by him a lot last night, and they also drank a little wine, and they all slept soundly with red faces.

Cheng Yue kissed each of them on the face and lips and walked out of the tent. Xiao Zhen was boxing with five hundred escorts, and when he saw Cheng Yue coming out, he immediately saluted, stepped aside, and was led by Cheng Yue himself.

After this period of running-in, the army has gradually become accustomed to the matter of saluting the military, and according to the regulations, after the subordinates salute the superiors first, the superiors must return the salute, which also makes the sergeants feel a rare equality.

Cheng Yue smiled apologetically at the guards and led them to play the Tai Chi that had just been taught to them.

Cheng Yue didn't know if this Taijiquan was invented by Zhang Sanfeng, and he didn't know where Zhang Sanfeng was now. He only knew that the Taijiquan he knew was the result of the continuous improvement of countless Taiji masters in the Ming and Qing dynasties and modern times, and it must be better than the most primitive Taijiquan.

After the boxing, Cheng Yue went to see the drills of the various armies and accompanied the soldiers to climb and roll. Seeing a bunch of old fritters, their eyes were full of tears, and they had to practice seriously and never dare to be lazy anymore.

In the afternoon, Cheng Yue taught the army the art of capture, which is a necessary skill for special forces in the army, and Cheng Yue is even more of a master. Cheng Yue slowly explained various essentials, and then grabbed 37 white-handed people one after another with actual combat, which caused a sensation in the whole army, and all the armies understood that Cheng Yue's martial arts were high, not only powerful weapons.

is fighting hot, there are guards to report, Li Fu finally arrived.

Cheng Yue returned to the Chinese military tent amid the cheers of the army, and Yin Yu and Xie Fangde also accompanied Li Fu and waited inside.

Cheng Yue held Li Fu's hand and shook it hard. He gave Li Fu the heaviest job, also because he knew that Li Fu was extraordinary in both ability and energy. Still, he was a little sorry.

Li Fu experienced Cheng Yue's mood from Cheng Yue's hands and couldn't help but be deeply moved. He hurried back from the beach all the way, and he was a little tired. It's easy to complain when he's tired, but Cheng Yue's touching grip makes him feel like a confidant is dying. Li Fu did not get a big deal in the court, and Cheng Yue promised him a heavy responsibility as soon as he met, gave him so many opportunities, and took on so much work, although he was so busy that he even had time to eat every day, but seeing the results of his work, coupled with Cheng Yue's heartfelt thanks, everything was worth it.

Cheng Yue asked Li Fu to sit down and asked him about his situation.

Li Fu said: "The red bricks and cement that the governor wants me to make have been made, and the drawings for building the house have to be given to me by the governor." I'm trying to build a road that connects the pier to the city, and if it works, I'm going to pave it on a large scale. Thousands of charcoal pens have been made, and the craftsmen are becoming more and more stable and skilled, and this time I brought dozens of them. It's just that the Metropolitan Governor said that there is something to wipe off, and I don't know when he can give me the formula? ”

Cheng Yue smiled bitterly: "It's not that I am stingy with this recipe, but now I can only use a grain processing thing called bread to rub, I can't make this thing here, I plan to make it again in Lin'an." But it's made from wheat flour, and I'm afraid I'll be scolded if I can use it. So this matter can only be put on hold until we are richer. Don't wipe it now, just cross it out with a pen. ”

Li Fu originally thought that Cheng Yue deliberately left a hand, but now he knew that he was wrong to blame him, and he couldn't help but be a little sneering.

Cheng Yue smiled at him and said, "How is the matter of refined salt?" ”

Li Fu immediately perked up, happy to say: "The salt field has been in accordance with the law of the metropolitan governor out of a large amount of coarse salt, which is much more convenient than the previous boiling, and the output is large, the people in the salt field are immensely admired by the metropolitan governor, so once the method of refined salt is adopted, a lot of refined salt was quickly refined, it turned out to be so simple. We sold some and were sold out, and it's a shame that we had eaten kosher salt for so many years. This time, I also brought a few hundred pounds, which have been sent to the kitchen. From tomorrow, the nearby states and counties will be able to sell refined salt in large quantities, and the salt dealers in various places have gone crazy, and the Metropolitan Governor is going to make a fortune this time. ”

Cheng Yue smiled and said, "Have you sent people to protect the salt works and the market?" ”

Li Fu said: "Don't worry, I have issued a strict order, if anyone dares to undermine the good governance of the governor, it is a big crime to kill the head and exterminate the clan." Yang Ting's people have arrived, and they are secretly monitoring the situation in the market, plus a few big salt merchants on our side, there will be no big problems. ”

Cheng Yue said: "It's hard work. Remember what I said before? You have the most work, and you will definitely have to set aside some for others to do in the future, so that you will not be so tired. But now I can only rely on you, you hold on for a while, assign more work to others, and rest more. ”

Li Fu was so moved that he couldn't speak for a while, he worked seriously all his life, self-denial and service, but no one appreciated, only Cheng Yue, so trusted and cared about him.

Li Fu relieved his mood a little, and then said: "I can't print the book sent by the governor a few days ago, because I want to engrave the simplified character mold, not so fast." However, the traditional Chinese characters were printed. Because it's a traditional Chinese character, I didn't dare to bring more, and I brought 300 copies, I don't know if it's useful? ”

Cheng Yue said: "It's useful, of course it's useful." Tomorrow it will be sent to the battalions so that they can organize their study. Each battalion has literacy and hyphenation, and when the simplified characters come out, they will send more to the past. ”

Li Fu said: "The governor is really right, since the use of lead and tin engraving movable type, and the use of new ink, the printed book is fast and clear and the cost is low. Sure enough, there were many Buddhist temples that asked for the printing of Buddhist scriptures, because most of the governors had said that they would not accept ten times the price. But what should I print after printing the book of the Grand Duca? ”

Cheng Yue said: "Printing newspapers, printing collections, printing packaging, there are jobs. I've been planning this for a long time, and you're looking for someone to come with me to Lin'an to set up a new printing workshop, and to develop color printing technology, otherwise we'll be caught up soon. I'm afraid that the formula of the ink will not be kept secret for too long. There's a lot of work to be done. Master Xie is a great Confucian, and there are many articles that he wants to gather and publish, right? Find Master Lee. The money is paid by me, and I thank Master Xie for his support to me. I have also read some of the works of Master Li and Lord Yin, which is very good, I might as well collect and publish them, I have all the money, and I will also leave a good story for future generations. ”

The three of them suddenly became excited, and they felt that they couldn't sit still, and they couldn't wait to go home and find out everything they had written, and immediately process and polish it. To have a book of their own come out, the three of them had never even dreamed of it before. Especially Li Fu, although he presided over the printing work, he never thought of printing his own works.

This is going to last forever!

In those years, who could come up with a book written by someone in his own family, it was really a majestic and awe-inspiring thing.

Cheng Yue smiled: "Now you understand why I said that there is a job, right?" With the latest movable type and ink, the cost and time of printing books have been greatly reduced, which makes things that were expensive before much easier, and as long as I add the new printing paper that I am about to launch, a large number of books of all kinds will spring up like mushrooms. The progress of agriculture would lift people out of hunger and lead to greater pursuit of art and industry. Breakthroughs in medicine will greatly improve people's longevity and quality of life, and the combination of the three will lead to unprecedented cultural prosperity and unprecedented social activity. And it was the three of you who single-handedly made all this possible, pushed our Great Song Dynasty and even the world, and opened up a new era! You will be famous, green, and history. ”

"Bang." Li Fu's tea bowl fell to the ground, and the three of them all grinned stupidly. But the glint of excitement in his eyes was terrifyingly bright.

After a while, the bodies of the three of them shook uncontrollably, and tears rolled down Xie Fang's eyes. Li Fu wanted to stand up, but his body was trembling and stiff, and he couldn't stand up at all. Yin Yu always looked at Cheng Yue with his mouth wide open, almost unable to believe his ears.

They just did a few things at Cheng Yue's orders, and they actually went down in history? But according to Cheng Yue's statement, there is nothing wrong at all. I unknowingly did such a great thing, and I didn't even think so. It turns out that this is how great people in history have accomplished.

Cheng Yue said with a smile: "In the future, it will be written in the history books, the three adults have worked together to create a new era, I estimate that I have to give the three adults a title, such as laying the foundation of the three sages or something." At that time, if you took out the articles of the three adults and read them, what kind of good story do you say? Glorious through the ages. ”

The three of them had calmed down a little, but when they heard him speak again, they trembled again.

It took a long time for the three of them to regain their composure, and Xie Fangde also wiped away his tears, and said with a hint of crying: "Xie is fortunate to be rescued by the Metropolitan Governor, even if he is broken, it is difficult to repay him." If you do something that can be passed on to future generations, it is also thanks to the Metropolitan Governor, thank you to the Metropolitan Governor. "As he spoke, he knelt down.

The other two are also thinking together, and they will also kneel down together to give thanks.

Cheng Yue had already guarded against them, stepped forward to stop them and said: "Don't be presumptuous about the three adults, the idea is mine, but the work is done by the three adults, without the three adults, it is impossible to achieve such a great achievement, oh, it should be said that the achievements have begun." In the future, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to achieve even more. Whether we can change the world depends on whether we can do the job at hand. We encourage each other. ”

The three of them were full of emotion, hugged each other's arms together, and were glad in their hearts that they had made the choice they had made before, and followed Cheng Yue, and they were actually recorded in history like this.

That night, Cheng Yue fried a few new dishes, summoned all the civil and military officials, and had a meal together. Many of the generals met the three for the first time, and when they thought about the fact that they were enemies before, they couldn't help but smile and grudge.
