Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her
Chapter 398 Gongsun Family Papermaking
Liu Quan was thinking that maybe he wouldn't have to worry about the food issue that had been bothering him for some time.
You have to know that the deadline agreed with the Second Miss is about to arrive. If he fails to store enough food before receiving the Second Miss's order, it will definitely affect what the Second Miss wants him to do next.
Although he didn't know what the Second Miss asked him to do specifically, he messed things up at the beginning, so how could the Second Miss use him again?
Thinking of this, Liu Quan became determined to get food from these seven villages no matter what.
Zhu Lei thinks a lot. Under his leadership, Zhulin Village has long become the largest village in Qingshan Town. And under his influence, the village has a tough atmosphere and people will start fighting at the slightest disagreement.
In addition, the villagers have bullied the other seven villages to varying degrees, so that although Zhulin Village is the largest village, it is not so closely connected with the other seven villages.
Now the seven villages, including Xinghua Village, Taohua Village, and Lianhua Village, are not as short of food as he imagined. On the contrary, they can produce surplus food, which makes him very angry.
Zhulin Village has developed with great difficulty, and he will never allow any other village to surpass Zhulin Village.
But these are all things for the future. The most important thing right now is to get the surplus food from the seven villages.
In this way, it can not only alleviate the food shortage in the village, but also establish a relationship with the noble person behind Liu Quan.
But even though we think this way, it is not so easy to do. We need to plan carefully and we cannot just grab something and leave like we do in other places.
Zhu Lei was thinking about how to get the food from the seven villages. Liu Quan's triangular eyes also flashed with brilliance. When the two looked at each other, they understood each other's meaning.
Li Mengyue went to the house where Liu Quan had lived before and asked the system to search the entire house, but no trace of Xiao Jiantong was found.
[Host, if you want to find Xiao Jiantong, you can only start from Liu Quan. ]
[Well, the enemy is in the dark, we can only wait and let the master of the little bastard come to us. ]
[It's okay, host. I'm not worried about not being able to take revenge. Anyway, as long as the little bastard is in this world, no matter which rat hole it hides in, I will find it.]
[Okay, let's go and see if Gongsun and his friends have made paper.]
Then Li Mengyue went to the house she bought in the town. Before that, he asked everyone in the Gongsun family to move to the village.
However, plans cannot keep up with changes. When the locust plague came, she was busy trying to find ways to reduce the losses caused by the plague to the people and try to preserve as much food as possible. At the same time, she also had to support other counties and help kill the locusts to prevent the locust swarms from continuing to move north.
He was so busy every day that he couldn't even go home. Naturally, he couldn't take care of the Gongsun family, nor could he guide them in making paper.
She could only write down the papermaking process and hand it over to the Gongsun family. Such a long time had passed and she didn't know how they were doing.
"Boom boom boom!"
Li Mengyue stood outside the door and knocked, and soon someone opened the door from the inside.
"Sister Fairy, no, I should call you Master, the Master is here."
A cheerful voice rang out. Li Mengyue looked down and saw who else could it be but the lovely Nini.
"Nini, why are you the one opening the door?"
"Master, my grandfather and mother are making paper and can't spare their time, so they asked me to open the door."
After Nini finished speaking, before Li Mengyue could say anything, she started talking excitedly again.
"Master, Master, Grandpa, my uncle and the others really made snow-white paper according to the method you gave."
"It's really white paper, snow-white. Nini has never seen paper so white before."
Listening to Nini's words, Li Mengyue knew that Gongsun Cheng and others had successfully made paper without her personal guidance.
In fact, she was not surprised. After all, the papermaking process she wrote was very detailed, and anyone could make paper by following it.
What's more, the Gongsun family are not ordinary people, so it is not a big problem for them at all.
However, when Li Mengyue and Nini spoke, they still affirmed their contributions.
"Ni Ni, can you take me to see it?"
"Of course, Master, come this way."
Under the guidance of Nini, Li Mengyue went to the backyard, where paper was made.
As soon as I walked into the backyard, I saw the Gongsun family busy at work. Some were copying paper, some were drying paper. Basically, there was someone doing each step.
Watching the Gongsun family making paper in an orderly manner, Li Mengyue stood there without saying a word, but Nini called them "Mom".
"Mother, the master is here."
When Gongsun heard her daughter's cry, she put down the work in her hands, looked up and saw her savior, their current master Li Mengyue.
At this time, other people also saw Li Mengyue, and everyone hurried forward to greet her.
Li Mengyue waved her hand, telling everyone not to be so polite.
"Master, we did not move to the village as you ordered. Please punish us."
Gongsun Cheng knelt down.
"Get up. This has nothing to do with you. I came here this time just to check the progress of papermaking, and then make appropriate adjustments based on the current situation."
Li Mengyue walked to a table with brand new papers on it. She picked up a piece and looked at it carefully. She found that the paper made with the papermaking technology of the later era was much better than the best paper on the market.
It can be said that the paper they make now, as long as it is sold on the market, will definitely beat all the current papers.
But before officially selling it, she still needs to think it over carefully.
You have to know that in this era, books and paper have been monopolized by aristocratic families since ancient times. In addition, the papermaking technology is backward and the production efficiency is low, which leads to extremely high prices for paper.
Even a family with a little wealth would find it difficult to support a scholar.
After all, not counting the tuition, the pens, ink, paper and inkstone alone would be a huge sum of money, which could easily bankrupt the entire family.
Let’s not talk about other things, just look at the Li family. In order to let Li Jian study, old man Li and old lady Li not only used up all their savings, but also used the annual output from the land for Li Jian’s studies.
Old man and old lady Li were looking forward to Li Jian's admission to high school, so they were willing to sacrifice their eldest and second son's families and treat Li Hai and Li An like their workhorses.
The biggest reason for this is that studying is too expensive.
Before returning to Xinghua Village, Old Man Li had a large amount of savings and twenty acres of land. However, in the process of supporting Li Jian's studies, the family's money became less and less, and the family's living standard gradually declined.
Although the Li family lives in a blue brick and tile house, the food they eat every day is not that good in the village, and it is just enough to get enough food and clothing.
And this "food and clothing" does not apply to all members of the Li family. For example, Wang and the Li twins, and the sisters Li Rou and Li Qiao, could only eat their fill a few times.
Even so, it was difficult for the Li family to support Li Jian's studies, let alone other villagers.
