Chapter 285 Cui Lingyun
"Ha ha!"
Li Shimin laughed loudly and said: "The ministers generously donated money and shared my worries. I am very grateful. Although it is still not enough, I will make up for the rest from the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
Everyone felt a little bitter when they heard Li Shimin's praise.
There is no real benefit to spending so much money, and a few boasting words are useless.
Li Shimin ordered people to count the donations of all people.
It took more than half an hour to count the numbers.
"Report to Your Majesty, the registration has been completed, a total of 230 guan."
Li Shimin waved his hand and asked happily: "The sooner the road construction is done, the better. I wonder how soon you can send the money?"
"Your Majesty, within three days at most, the minister can send the money!" Lin Xuan said.
Some people originally wanted to procrastinate, but when they heard Lin Xuan say this, whether they wanted it or not, they said they would deliver it within three days.
I scolded Lin Xuan again in my heart.
Li Shimin laughed and said, "Okay, the prince will be responsible for road construction!"
"I obey the order, and I will live up to my father's entrustment!" Li Chengqian came out and said.
Li Shimin nodded, and said: "This is a good opportunity to practice, you have to remember to learn more and ask more questions, and don't just go your own way!"
"I would like to obey my father's instruction!" Li Chengqian said with a solemn expression.
……
After the court was over, many people looked at Lin Xuan bitterly and left the hall.
Lin Xuan shook his head and raised his foot to leave.
"Zi Chu!"
Qin Qiong Linxuan looked back, and saw Qin Qiong Cheng Yaojin and the others walking over.
"I've met some uncles!" Lin Xuan bowed and saluted.
"Zichu, today you..."
Just as Qin Qiong was about to say something, a young eunuch ran over and said, "Your Majesty, invite Duke Yi, Duke Su, and Duke E... the Marquis of Jingyang County to discuss matters in the Palace of Ganlu!"
Qin Qiong could only stop, and several people followed the eunuch to the Ganlu Hall.
When they entered the Ganlu Palace, they found that Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng... and others were already there.
Except for Lin Xuan, Qin Qiong and the others were a little puzzled, but they didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly saluted.
"I see you, Your Majesty!"
Li Shimin waved his hands and said, "Sit down!"
After Qin Qiong and others sat down, Li Shimin didn't say anything.
Not long after, Li Mu walked in and said, "Your Majesty, Cui Lingyun is already outside the hall."
Li Shimin said, "Let him in."
Not long after, Li Mu led an old man in his seventies and walked in.
Although the old man was very old, he seemed very energetic.
"The Cui family, Cui Lingyun, sees His Majesty!" Cui Lingyun bowed.
Li Shimin said with a smile: "No courtesy! Give me a seat!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Please trouble Your Majesty and all the adults this time." Cui Lingyun said.
Changsun Wuji and others were confused when they heard Cui Lingyun's words.
"Lin Xuan, explain to everyone." Li Shimin waved his hand and said.
"Yes!" Lin Xuan responded, and said what he had agreed with the Cui family, and finally said: "Today, I want to trouble Your Majesty and all the adults to help me to be a witness."
"Hey, the old man thought it was something, why not just be a witness, no problem." Cheng Yaojin said.
Changsun Wuji and others also expressed their willingness to be this witness.
Since Li Shimin called them here, of course they understood what he meant.
Lin Xuan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you Your Majesty and all the adults."
After finishing speaking, Lin Xuan took out the contract he had prepared a long time ago, handed it to Cui Lingyun and said, "Mr. Cui, this is the contract, please read it over."
Cui Lingyun took the contract, looked at it, and found that there was no difference with what Lin Xuan said before, so he nodded and said, "No problem."
Li Shimin said: "Come here, prepare your pen and ink."
"Yes!"
Two eunuchs, carrying a tray, delivered it to the two of them.
Cui Lingyun signed the two contracts and pressed his fingerprints.
After the eunuch delivered the contract, Lin Xuan signed it and pressed his thumbprint.
Cui Lingyun asked: "Your Majesty of Jingyang County, the contract has already been signed, don't you know about the paper?"
While speaking, Cui Lingyun kept looking at Lin Xuan.
Cui Lingyun's position in Cui's family is very special. Originally, with his status, this kind of thing would never happen.
It's just that out of curiosity about Lin Xuan, he insisted on coming.
Lin Xuan smiled and said: "I will give orders later, and the Cui family can send someone to Moxuanzhai tomorrow."
Cui Lingyun nodded, bowed to Li Shimin, and said, "Thank you Your Majesty and all the adults this time, I will take my leave first."
Li Shimin nodded with a smile, he is in a very good mood now.
……
Lin Xuan, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and others left the palace together.
Qin Qiong said: "Zi Chu, you were a little reckless before."
"Uncle Qin is talking about signing a contract with the Cui family?" Lin Xuan asked.
Qin Qiong shook her head and said: "The old man is talking about donating money. Do you know that if you do this today, you will offend all the civil and military officials in the court?"
"I'm the one who's sorry for the uncles." Lin Xuan said apologetically.
He didn't care much about the others, he was worried that Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and the others would be unhappy.
After all, he put Cheng Yaojin and the others together.
Qin Qiong shook her head and said: "You are wrong, these old men and others don't care. But if you want to get involved in the court, you can't make too many enemies."
Cheng Yaojin also said with some displeasure: "What do you mean, kid? Do you think we are all stingy people? It's not the first time that the old man and others have donated money, but you donated a little too much this time. A lot of people will be unhappy."
Lin Xuan didn't argue, but nodded and said, "What the uncles said is true."
He has known these consequences for a long time, but Qin Qiong and others have good intentions, so there is no need for him to refuse.
"It's good for you to know, kid. Think more about what you do in the future." Cheng Yaojin patted Lin Xuan on the shoulder and said.
After separating from Cheng Yaojin and others, Lin Xuan couldn't help asking himself, did he do something wrong?
If he chooses again, will he still do it?
After a long time, Lin Xuan shook his head with a smile on his face.
Now that you have done it, what is there to regret?
If he offended, he would be offended, anyway, he didn't intend to stay in court for the rest of his life.
Lin Xuan got on his horse and said, "Let's go to Moxuanzhai."
……
"I've seen Lord Hou." He Xinmin saluted with a smile.
Lin Xuan waved his hand and said, "I have reached a cooperation with the Cui family. Keep [-]% of the paper in the warehouse, and sell the rest to them. All the paper produced in the future will keep [-]%."
A set of lead type molds has been made, and the books can be printed only after Kong Yingda and the others add punctuation marks into the book.There must be some paper.
In addition, some need to be kept to stabilize the price of paper.
But these things must not be said to He Xinmin.
"Yes!" He Xinmin nodded without asking further questions.
Lin Xuan asked, "By the way, how is the toilet paper research going?"
He Xinmin said: "Going back to Lord Hou, there are already some plans, and it shouldn't be long before it can be done."
"That's right, when it's finished, there will be rewards for all of them." Lin Xuan laughed.
"Thank you, Lord Hou!" He Xinmin said with a smile.
Lin Xuan waved his hand and said, "You deserve it. I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."
After leaving Moxuanzhai, Lin Xuan thought about it and went to the furniture workshop.
Now a set of fonts has been prepared, but the printed books have to wait for Kong Yingda and the others to write out the punctuation marks.
However, although books cannot be printed, Lin Xuan thought of a fun thing. If this thing is made, it seems to be good.
