    ¡°Your Highness has so much energy!¡±

    "Mother-in-law, I am full of energy now and have nowhere to vent it! I can only chop wood."

    Li Zhi said, raised his sword, and slashed forward heavily with one sword, then the second sword, and the third sword. Each time he slashed, no, it was a slash, and he took a step forward.

    "Your Highness, my sister has come to the mansion."

    Mrs. Wang saw that her son-in-law was indeed extremely energetic, and she had to praise him in her heart that it was great to be young.

    But there was still business at this time, so naturally he couldn't let his son-in-law continue to chop like this. He had to use a good sword as a woodcutter.

    "Oh, let Mrs. Zheng wait a moment. I will wipe my sweat, change my clothes and go over."

    By the time Murong Xueying put on her clothes and stood up, the yard outside was already covered with sawdust.

    "When we come to Xingyang, all the firewood in this woodshed has been chopped by His Highness."

    At this time, in the living room, Mrs. Wang accompanied King Jin and Mrs. Zheng had been sitting here for a while.

    Seeing King Jin coming, Mrs. Zheng quickly stood up and gave a slight blessing to King Jin.

    "Have your wife and the fourth master of the Zheng family discussed this?"

    "We have discussed it. My husband feels that it is a bit of a loss for Your Highness to get 20% of the silver. My husband arranged for someone to do the book printing. All the printed books will be sold by His Highness's people. What does Your Highness think?"

    "I said that I would only get 20% of my achievements. There is no need to say more about this."

    "That's okay. My husband does have some trustworthy people at this time, but they are still far behind. My husband wants to recruit some people. I wonder if His Highness can help?"

    "Mother-in-law, go call Cui Yan!"

    "I'll go right away."

    "Mrs. Zheng, I will leave this matter to the fourth master of the Zheng family. Naturally, you can rest assured. If you are really short of manpower, I can help. If you are afraid that I will not trust you, there is no need to do this."

    "Your Highness, please don't worry. We are really short of manpower. Your Highness also knows that although my husband has some status in the family, he is only a member of the fourth family."

    "Well, I will ask Cui Yan to find a way. If there are not enough manpower, I will dispatch it from the Luoyang government army."

    "Your Highness, allow me to say one more thing. If Your Highness hands over this skill to my master, aren't you afraid that we will shortchange His Highness's silver? Why don't you send a few of your cronies to the printing workshop that is about to start construction?"

    "Haha, if I dare to leave it to you, I won't be afraid of you doing anything."

    "Thank you for your trust, Your Highness."

    At this time, Cui Yan had already followed Mrs. Wang here, and Li Zhi naturally introduced Cui Yan to Mrs. Zheng.

    "It's really the second young lady of the Cui family. We haven't seen you for many years."

    "Aunt Liu, I haven't seen you for many years."

    "Oh, you know each other, that's the best. Yao'er, talk to Mrs. Zheng about printing books. If the fourth master of the Zheng family needs any help, just try your best to help."

    "Yes, Your Highness!"

    After Li Zhi finished speaking, he walked out and took his mother-in-law with him.

    "Yan'er, you also followed His Highness Ninth Prince. I heard the news in Xingyang before, but I didn't think it was true. You were so high-spirited that I thought those words were just rumors. By the way, I've been here a few times.  , why haven¡¯t I seen you before?¡±

    "I went to Luoyang a few days ago to do some business, and all the business of His Highness's bank was entrusted to me."

    "I'll leave it all to you. By the way, His Highness said last time about the women's small clothes and the new cheongsam from Zhuyuan. Is that true?"

    ¡°As long as your Highness has matters related to money, he entrusts me to take care of them.¡±

    "Your Highness trusts you so much?"

    "Aunt Liu, if you spend more time with His Highness, you will understand what kind of person His Highness is."

    "By the way, Aunt Liu, let's not talk about this anymore. Since the fourth room of the Zheng family has agreed to cooperate with His Highness, I will tell Aunt Liu about the movable type printing now so that Aunt Liu can prepare it earlier and wait until there are enough people.  Let¡¯s start printing books immediately.¡±

    Cui Yan said that he had taken out a purse. When the purse was opened, several wooden movable types fell out of the purse. Cui Yan took one and showed it to Mrs. Zheng.

    Mrs. Zheng looked at it and saw that this wooden movable type was just like a small seal, with only a letter engraved on it.

    "Yan'er, how do you use this? It's just like stamping. Do you want to stamp words on the paper?"

    "In that case, it won't be much faster than writing. It will take more time to find movable type. Aunt Liu will watch!"

    Mrs. Zheng quickly looked carefully. This was a serious matter. Whether her husband could succeed in the Zheng family was all pointed at this thing!

    Cui ??Took other movable types and arranged them in a place, with the inscription side of each type facing up. Then Cui Yan dipped his brush in ink and drew on the movable type, and then covered it directly with a piece of paper.

    When the piece of paper was taken off, the five words "property, justice, benevolence, wisdom, trust" jumped out from the paper.

    "Aunt Liu, do you see clearly?"

    "You see clearly, this method is indeed wonderful. As long as there are all the words on a page of the book, you only need to arrange them and brush them with ink, and then it will become a page of the book."

    "Aunt Liu, this method requires at least hundreds of copies to be printed at a time. I will help Aunt Liu gather the manpower needed in the next few days. Aunt Liu will go back and find a few trustworthy carpenters to make the movable type first. The movable type must be of the same specifications.  Prepare more commonly used words.¡±

    "Okay, Your Highness's method is not only wonderful, but also simple. This method was derived from the seal. How come no one thought of it before!"

    "Aunt Liu, His Highness has specifically warned you not to tell others that His Highness passed this method on to you."

    "Okay, I will definitely keep this in mind. Yao'er, Aunt Liu is leaving now, so we have to get busy with this matter."

    "Well, I'll take Aunt Liu out!"

    Cui Yan saw off Mrs. Zheng and left. When he came back, he came to Li Zhi and saw that Li Zhi was practicing archery, so he stood aside.

    "Yan'er, I find it strange that Mrs. Zheng and my mother-in-law are biological sisters. You were not familiar with my mother-in-law before, so why do you call her Aunt Liu? She looks very familiar."

    "Who said that His Highness's mother-in-law and I don't know each other well? It's just that His Highness married Wang Yan, and it's hard for me to see your mother-in-law. I'll just call her Aunt Liu!"

    Li Zhi patted his forehead with his hand, forget it, let¡¯s not mention this matter. These aristocratic families are really intertwined and cannot be untangled.

    At the level of Five Surnames and Seven Hopes, there are various relationships among the top families, the most important of which is the marriage relationship. Through mutual marriage, these top families gradually form a relationship based on blood relations.  Interest groups linked by various interests.

    At this time in the early Tang Dynasty, the most important interest groups were the Guanlong Group and the Shandong clan clan group.

    Cui Yan was born in the Cui family of Qinghe. He really doesn¡¯t know the Liu family. How could this be possible?

    "Okay, okay, it's my fault. Yan'er, you have to be busy too. The printing of books in the fourth room of the Zheng family is also an important matter this time, so you can't be careless."

    "Well, this Yan'er knows that I have called Ying'er back from Yangzhou. I originally asked her to be busy with Luoyang and Chang'an Bank. Now it's just right. Let her go to the Zheng family first." (Remember the website address:  www.hlnovel.com
