Chapter 362
Li Yuan could tell that Li Shimin admired Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty very much.
"In my opinion, it's just that the predecessors planted trees and the descendants took advantage of the shade. If it weren't for the accumulation of the two emperors Wen and Jing, the Western Han Dynasty might have perished at the hands of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty." Li Yuan said lightly.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was militaristic, coupled with his extravagant life, if it weren't for the money and food accumulated by Emperor Wen and Jing, would the Western Han Dynasty have been able to withstand his toss?
In Li Yuan's view, there is no difference between Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty.
It is nothing more than a success and a failure.
Li Shimin didn't take it seriously. When he took over Datang, everything was waiting to be done, and Li Yuan didn't leave him a rich family.
"Okay, you go back." Seeing Li Shimin's expression, Li Yuan knew that he didn't listen.
What he said to Li Shimin was not to make Li Shimin a conservative master.
I wanted him to grasp the speed of it, but Li Shimin obviously couldn't listen.
He has already done what he can do, and he can't control what happens in the future.
……
Lin Xuan asked the soldiers to take away the finished typeface and loom, thought for a while, and went to Cui's house.
Along the way, Lin Xuan was very happy with a smile on his face.
Because of Li Shimin's focus on movable type printing, the lead he got during this period increased greatly.
This time, a lot of fonts were made.
For each commonly used character, two hundred were made, and for those uncommon characters, dozens were made.
With this batch of typefaces, books can be printed in large quantities.
What makes him most happy is that the fonts of numbers and mathematical symbols have been made, and he can print mathematics books.
As for the loom, it was useless for the time being.
The cotton is not enough to make cotton clothes and quilts, so there is no surplus for weaving.
Not to mention now, in recent years, it is estimated that looms will not be used.
For the common people, the demand for cotton-padded clothes and quilts is much greater than the demand for fabrics. It can only be used for weaving cloth after a few years when cotton is planted in the Tang Dynasty.
When the Cui family came, Lin Xuan handed the horse over to the soldiers and said to Liu Da: "You and I go in, and the others are waiting outside."
"Master Hou, it's better to bring more people." Liu said worriedly.
He naturally knew about the conflict between Lin Xuan and the family.
"Don't worry, the Cui family dare not let me die here." Lin Xuan laughed.
Liu Da nodded and hurriedly followed.
"I don't know what this young master is doing?" the porter stopped Lin Xuan and asked.
Lin Xuan smiled and said, "I'm in Hou Linxuan, Xiajingyang County, and I want to visit Master Cui Hao, please let me know."
"Master Hou, wait a moment!" The concierge nodded and hurried in to report.
When Cui Hao heard that the housekeeper said that Lin Xuan had come, he said a little irritably, "Tell him that the old man is not here, let him go back."
Needless to say, he knew what Lin Xuan was doing here, it was nothing more than books.
He couldn't decide this matter at all, and the family asked him to drag it as long as he could.
He could only hide from Lin Xuan, and it might take a while.
When Lin Xuan heard the concierge say that Cui Hao was not there, with a strange smile on his face, he said, "Are you treating me as a fool?"
Don't tell me what a fart!
The concierge gave a dry laugh and said, "The little one doesn't understand what Lord Hou means, so don't make things difficult for the young one."
"Okay, I won't make things difficult for you." Lin Xuan nodded and said.
"Thank you, Lord Hou." The concierge nodded and bowed with a smile on his face.
"Liu Da." Lin Xuan called out.
Liu Da agreed, stepped forward and moved the porter aside.
Lin Xuan smiled and walked inside.
"Master Hou, you can't go in. Come, come, come quickly."
A dozen guards rushed out of the courtyard, armed with long knives, and surrounded Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan was not afraid at all, and looked at them calmly.
"Who dares to forcibly break into Cui's house!" shouted one of the big men.
"I want to see Cui Hao!" Lin Xuan said lightly.
"You bastard, how dare you call the master by his name." There was a fierce look in the big man's eyes, but he didn't attack Lin Xuan.
Those who dared to force their way into Cui's house were either fools or had backgrounds. Lin Xuan obviously didn't look like a fool.
"Hurry up and protect Lord Hou!" Liu Da led a group of personal soldiers, rushed in and stood in front of Lin Xuan.
"What's going on?" A slightly fat middle-aged man came over.
"Housekeeper, this person forced his way in, and we stopped him." said the big man who had just scolded Lin Xuan.
The housekeeper sneered and said, "How dare you to force your way into Cui's house."
This is to pretend that you don't know yourself, but is it possible?
Even if you don't know him, the porter's notification just now must go through the housekeeper.
"I'm Lin Xuan. I want to see Cui Hao. If you want to stop me, don't blame me." Lin Xuan said lightly.
The butler smiled and said, "So it's the Marquis of Jingyang County, but it seems inappropriate for the Marquis of Jingyang County to break into the minister's residence like this?"
"Why, is it possible that you dare to do something to me?" Lin Xuan said with a half-smile.
The butler laughed dryly and said, "How dare you, it's just that my master is not at home, so Master Hou should come back another day."
"I'm not here, so I'll go in and wait." Lin Xuan said.
"Master Hou is going to be a villain?" the butler said with a gloomy face.
"I must see Cui Hao today." Lin Xuan said without doubt.
Cui Hao has been observing the movement here in the dark, and he naturally heard Lin Xuan's words.
"Zhuzi! If the family didn't say they won't do anything to you, I would have let you die here today." Cui Hao cursed secretly.
Even Li Jingfang Xuanling and the other prime ministers would not dare to humiliate the Cui family like this.
But he has nothing to do now, Lin Xuan brought dozens of soldiers, Cui's family is in the Chang'an mansion, and there is not enough manpower now, they are not the opponents of Lin Xuan's soldiers at all.
It is impossible for him to call out the dead soldiers hidden in the dark of the Cui family.
Cui Hao tidied up his clothes, walked out, and asked, "What's going on?"
"Isn't this the Marquis of Jingyang County?" Cui Hao seemed to have just seen Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan said with a smile: "I came to visit Master Cui, but the servants in your family insisted that you were not here. It seems that they are lying to me."
Cui Hao laughed and said, "The Marquis of Jingyang County is thinking too much, the old man just came back."
"It's not that Master Cui just hides from me." Lin Xuan said with a half-smile.
The corners of Cui Hao's eyes twitched, and he said, "Please come from the Marquis of Jingyang County."
Lin Xuan said to Liu Da: "Take someone outside and wait."
"Lord Hou!" Liu Da shouted anxiously.
Lin Xuan glanced at Liu Da and said, "Obey orders!"
"Yes!" Liu Da nodded and led the people back out.
When they came to the hall of Cui's house, after the two parties sat down, Cui Hao said with a smile, "I don't know Hou Dengmen of Jingyang County, what can you do?"
"Master Cui should know where I come from." Lin Xuan said.
Cui Hao said: "The Marquis of Jingyang County is joking, I really don't know."
Lin Xuan didn't want to argue with him, and said, "Did the Cui family forget the contract they signed with me?"
"It turned out to be this, and the Cui family naturally didn't forget it. It's just that the Cui family doesn't have much money in Chang'an right now, so we need to transfer money from other places." Cui Hao said.
Lin Xuan smiled lightly and said, "It's okay, I can provide the book first, I believe the Cui family will not renege on their debts."
The corner of Cui Hao's mouth twitched, and he said, "How can this be done?"
Lin Xuan waved his hand and said, "Why can't this work? Could it be that the Cui family wants to play tricks?"
"The boss can't decide this matter. How about I wait for the old man to ask the family and then give Hou Ye an answer?" Cui Hao said.
Lin Xuan said: "Yes, I will give Master Cui a month. If the Cui family doesn't give me a result, then I can only go to His Majesty."
Anyway, the production of books is limited now, so there is no rush.
He mainly wants to have a result as soon as possible. If the Cui family does not help him sell books, he will start to set up sales channels.
