Chapter 241: Good News
King Xian left, leaving only Xu Qing sitting in the National Chamber of Commerce and the Martial Forest cheat book behind him...
By the way, there is also a contract left by King Xian on the table.
But the matter explained by the virtuous king is easier said than done!
It sounds like you do something outrageous, and then all the officials in the court go to the emperor to play yourself, and the emperor has to pretend that he is really angry. He kept reprimanding himself for this outrageous matter, which made the officials think that the Emperor Chu had forgotten about the last account because of him.
And King Xian also said that it would be better to finish it within a month...
The sky is angry, people complain, everyone scolds, Xu Qing can't think of a second idea other than rebellion...
Xu Qing looked at the paper contract on the table, and guessed that King Xian also knew that this matter was difficult to handle, or he would not make such a heavy promise.
Xu Qing couldn't help thinking, what should I exchange this paper contract for?
The exchange must be worth it, preferably something that makes him feel bad, only then can Xu Qing relieve the hatred in his heart!
Let him cheat himself like that before.
This time, let the virtuous king know what it feels like to be cheated!
But what can make Xian Wang feel bad? This is a problem.
...
"Xu Qing Xu Qing!"
When Xu Qing was distracted, Xiao Ruxue's voice suddenly came from outside.
Xu Qing looked up and saw Xiao Ruxue running in from outside.
Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ruxue with some curiosity: "Why did you come to Guoshangyuan?"
At this point in time, she should be at home with her wife, right?
How can you come to the National Chamber of Commerce?
Xiao Ruxue looked at Xu Qing and said, "Of course I have good news to tell you!"
"Good news?" Xu Qing was slightly taken aback, and asked with a smile, "What good news?"
Unless someone can solve Xu Qing's extremely difficult matter now, otherwise, any good news for Xu Qing is not good news.
However, Xu Qing couldn't dissuade the little girl's enthusiasm, so she asked.
Xiao Ruxue said: "Do you still remember that when you were in Yongzhou, you searched all over Yongzhou City for craftsmen who could make paper soft?"
"Of course I remember." Xu Qing nodded, and then he was overjoyed: "Xue Er said, someone can do it?"
In Yongzhou City, Xu Qing paid a lot of money to hire skilled craftsmen who can make soft paper and posted notices everywhere, but unfortunately, no one could do it.
When he arrived in the capital, Xu Qing still didn't give up, not to mention notices, a special section was set aside in the newspapers for job advertisements.
A lot of money for talents!
Today, Xiao Ruxue actually told Xu Qing that someone made it? !
This made Xu Qing burst into tears...
The hard days are over!
When Xu Qing didn't need to go to the toilet anymore, he rubbed a few pieces of paper for a long time...
Moreover, if the paper is crumpled too much, it will be soft and easy to break. You can break a hole with a little force with your fingers. It is not flexible at all...don't ask how you know...
Now the news that Xiao Ruxue brought to Xu Qing is simply unprecedented good news!
It is related to the beautiful life of Xu Qing and his family in the future!
Of course it is important!
Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ruxue's happy expression and said, "Where is he? Take me there quickly."
Xiao Ruxue said: "Man, I brought it here, and it's in the compound of the National Chamber of Commerce!"
Xu Qing stood up abruptly, and because of too much movement, the chair fell backwards and hit the bookshelf behind Xu Qing, but Xu Qing didn't care about it, he just walked out excitedly and said, "Go, let's go!" Go see."
Just as Xu Qing finished speaking, there was a "pop" from behind Xu Qing...
It turned out that the chair bumped into the bookshelf just now, which made the book, which was randomly placed on the bookshelf, after shaking for a while, finally fell off...
Xiao Ruxue stepped forward and came behind Xu Qing: "Xu Qing, the book is lost."
Saying that, Xiao Ruxue picked it up, Xu Qing turned around and quickly snatched the book away.
Xiao Ruxue was puzzled and said, "Xu Qing, what kind of book is this? It looks quite old. The National Chamber of Commerce was built not long ago, so there shouldn't be old books!"
Xu Qing quickly shook his head and made an excuse, "No...it's nothing, it's just a commentary on Confucian classics..."
Xiao Ruxue didn't like reading this kind of book the least. According to experience, Xiao Ruxue would lose interest immediately when she heard about this kind of book.
Xiao Ruxue looked at Xu Qing's flustered look, with her two little hands behind her back, slightly bent over, raised her head and said, "No, no, you're lying to me, aren't you?"
"Sister Su told me that if you shake your head repeatedly, speak flusteredly, and look away, you are telling a lie, and it is a manifestation of a ghost in your heart! You must be lying! I can't guess wrong!"
Xu Qing was stunned for a moment, why does his wife talk to Xiao Ruxue about everything now!
Xiao Ruxue giggled and said, "Sister Su said, you were the one who told Sister Su about these details back then, how is it? Today I'm going to treat him in the same way!"
Xu Qing coughed, and quickly coaxed Xiao Ruxue to say: "Okay, okay, you are smart, no matter what kind of book it is, there is nothing interesting in it, come on, let's go and see the person who can make soft paper first."
As he said, Xu Qing put the secret book in his hand on the top shelf of the bookshelf at the back. With Xiao Ruxue's height, he couldn't reach or see that shelf.
Xiao Ruxue wanted to look back curiously, but was grabbed by Xu Qing and walked out: "What's so interesting about books, let's go and see the talent you mentioned, by the way, why did he go to Uncle Anding's mansion?" Looking for you? Why don't you come directly to the National Chamber of Commerce?"
Originally, Xiao Ruxue's curiosity was all focused on the book Xu Qing said, the more Xu Qing refused to let her read it, the more curious she became, what kind of book was that book?
But at this moment Xiao Ruxue was being pulled by Xu Qing's wrist... She immediately shifted her attention from the book to Xu Qing, and just followed him outside.
While being dragged away by Xu Qing, Xiao Ruxue explained to Xu Qing the question Xu Qing just asked.
The general reason is:
Because Xu Qing placed the papermaking workshop not far from Andinghou's mansion, and improved the person who softened the paper was a craftsman in the papermaking workshop. After the improvement, he went to the nearby Andingbo mansion to collect the reward, but Xu Qing was not in Andingbo Mansion.
Xiao Ruxue knew that Xu Qing had always wanted this kind of paper, so she brought him to the National Chamber of Commerce.
After Xiao Ruxue finished explaining to Xu Qing, she looked at Xu Qing and said, "Xu Qing Xu Qing, I have seen the kind of paper he made, and I think the paper he made is not good, it is soft but it is not suitable. Writing, and the ink will smudge into a large ink blob when you drop it, and it is especially easy to absorb water, and it is especially easy to break after absorbing water."
The more Xu Qing listened, the brighter her eyes became: "Absorbent, soft, this is the paper I want!"
Xiao Ruxue shook her head and said, "But, what's the use of having paper that can't write on?"
Xu Qing looked at Xiao Ruxue and smiled, "Paper is not necessarily for writing."
Xiao Ruxue was puzzled: "If the paper isn't used for writing, what else can it be used for?"
Xu Qing, who was the first to explain, finally stopped the car just as he was about to say something, pursed his lips and said, "You will know in the future..."
