Chapter 41: The Way to Return to Xianyang

When Hu Hai was anxious, a servant cautiously entered the meeting room and reported: "Master, Zhao Gao of the CRRC wants to see you."

Hearing this, Hu Hai hurriedly said: "Please come quickly." Then he didn't care about his dignity and went to greet him himself.

Zhao Gao, who was of medium height outside the door, had a fat face and black and white hair combed together with hairpins. When he saw Hu Hai, he immediately greeted him and said respectfully in a soft voice: "Young Master actually greeted me in person.

Zhao Gao can't afford it."

Hu Hai immediately waved his hand to Zhao Gao to relax. He smiled and said, "You don't have to be like this, Taifu. Please come in quickly."

Immediately after they entered the lobby, Hu Hai was sitting in the hall, and Zhao Gao was sitting on one side. At this time, Hu Hai ordered his servants to retreat, and then he said anxiously: "Master, you are finally here."

Without the servants, Zhao Gao felt much more natural. He covered his sleeves, pursed his lips and smiled, and then asked slowly and unhurriedly: "Young Master, have you invited Zhao Gao to come over for something?"

"Oh, Taifu, how long has it been since then and you are still playing riddles with me, how is your father doing now?" Hu Hai finally said what was in his heart. He stood up and walked around again, showing that he was worried.

When Zhao Gao saw Hu Hai's appearance, he couldn't help but shook his head and smiled again. He pointed at the latter, waved his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Young master, don't worry, your majesty is recovering, and you have eaten a lot more today. I believe you will be able to eat more."

In a few days, we can go to court to govern."

Hearing this, Hu Hai stood there a little stunned. He frowned, a little unconvinced, and then asked solemnly in a low tone: "Taifu, is what you said true? Why did I hear about my father?

The condition may worsen at any time, maybe..." He wanted to say die, but he didn't dare to say it.

"Haha, Master, do you want to say that His Majesty will return to heaven at any time?" Zhao Gao smiled calmly again.

"Shhh..." Hu Hai hissed anxiously, signaling Zhao Gao to shut up. Then he ran to the hall door and took a look. He was relieved when he saw no one, and then said angrily: "Master,

What do you mean by this? This is extremely disrespectful. If others find out, both of us will be beheaded." Then he made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Zhao Gao didn't seem worried. He took Hu Hai's hand and said calmly: "Young Master, there is no need to be so nervous. Is there anyone here who dares to inform His Majesty?"

"Master, it's not like you don't know that Meng Yi is still in Xianyang, but he has been keeping an eye on the two of us and never made a big mistake." Obviously, although Hu Hai is greedy for power, he also knows that those things are beyond his reach, because he

There is also a Fusu on the head. Therefore, I am always careful when I speak or do things for fear of being caught.

Hearing Meng Yi's name, Zhao Gao's face darkened. He had almost died at the hands of Meng Yi, but now Meng Tian had a heavy army, and the two Meng brothers had won the trust of His Majesty the First Emperor. If it hadn't been for him

He and Li Si looked after each other with lips and teeth, maybe he had actually been cut in half by Meng Yi.

Then Zhao Gao's eyes flashed with gloom, and he said unhappily: "Brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi both support the eldest son of the emperor, Fusu. Master, don't you have any ideas?"

When Hu Hai was asked this question, he became nervous. He was not sure what Zhao Gao meant. Then he laughed at himself and said: "The master is joking again. I am not as talented and knowledgeable as the eldest brother. It is thanks to the kindness of my father."

Even if you love me less than one ten thousandth, this Da Qin will sooner or later belong to the emperor's eldest brother, so how can I have any idea?"

Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai, their eyes met, and then he cupped his hands and said, "In that case, Zhao Gao takes leave." After that, he waved his sleeves and turned to leave.

When Hu Hai saw this, although he wanted to stop him, he did not say anything because he did not know whether what happened today was Zhao Gao's intention or his father's temptation. "Be careful and you will never make a big mistake." He comforted himself and then ordered his servants.

He prepared dancing girls and wine and meat, and lived the life of moonlight in the mirror in his mind.

……………………………………………………

Just when Fusu and Hu Hai were concerned about His Majesty the First Emperor's physical condition, Li Mo also integrated a number of prominent families. Then he expanded the paper mill and expanded the business to neighboring Xue County, Donghai County, Huaiyang County, and Yingchuan County.

, Dongjun and other places purchased stores to build sales channels.

Because of the support of a prominent family in the county, Li Mo was able to complete this series of preparations in a short period of time. Otherwise, he would not have been able to lay out such a huge situation with his own financial resources. After the store was purchased, he asked people to purchase raw materials, and

Now it was necessary to supply several counties, so the demand for raw materials suddenly surged. Xiangxian County's purchases were no longer enough to support daily consumption, so he asked people to buy from surrounding counties.

What this brought about was a fight with Yang Lin. Fortunately, Yang Lin was well prepared in advance. In addition, he also reached agreements with prominent families in many places to allow them to sell paper books. Therefore, in Surabaya

In the county, even though Li Mo paid high prices to purchase raw materials, he was unable to compete with Yang Lin. After all, the prestigious families in each county had high local prestige, which was beyond the reach of Li Mo, a low-status businessman.

As for the devolution of sales rights, Yang Lin has also discussed with the Lu Mansion. Now the Lu Mansion is well known to the whole county because of the paper book incident. It can be said that the limelight and reputation have overshadowed other prominent families in the county. Since the purpose of increasing reputation is

It has been achieved, and Lu Taigong also understood Yang Lin's difficulties, so he agreed.

If Yang Lin has benefited the people of Sishui County, then the county governor and Li Mo have also benefited the surrounding counties. It can be said that the reputation of the county governor of Sishui County has spread far and wide, making many other county governors envious. And then

With the promotion of paper books, more and more people are using them. However, excluding the counties that are already on sale, there are still nearly 30 counties out of the thirty-six counties in the Qin Dynasty that have not yet enjoyed the convenience of paper books.

However, the exchanges between the famous families have made the name of the paper book fall into the ears of the high-ranking officials and noble families in these nearly thirty counties. It can be said that the common people may not know the existence of the paper book, but they can

Through their own channels, they obtained one or two volumes of paper for writing. Of course, there was no shortage of smart people in these counties, and some prominent families had already begun to prepare to contact Li Mo and the governor of Sishui County.

In Sishui County, perhaps the people knew about the papermaking technology invented by Yang Lin, but in other counties, because of Li Mo's promotion, everyone thought it was invented by the county governor.

Shangjunxiang County.

Fusu was dealing with paperwork when the housekeeper came to report to Meng Tian and asked for an audience. He immediately asked someone to invite the general in. After the two sat down, Fusu asked anxiously: "But there is news about the father?"

Meng Tian saluted and replied: "Exactly, Meng Yi sent a letter today to inform you that His Majesty the First Emperor has begun to manage politics."

Hearing this, Fusu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He laughed at himself for being so anxious and rude, and then said, "Father, it's fine if nothing happens."

"No." Meng Tian shook his head, and then he analyzed: "Although His Majesty the First Emperor can manage politics, he is still suffering from many illnesses. As the eldest son of the Emperor, as you are, you should stay in Xianyang City."

Fusu could also hear what Meng Tian meant. He was worried about his father in case... He didn't think about it any further. In fact, if it was not that he was unwilling to return to Xianyang City, he also wanted to visit his father.

But because he was demoted to Shangjun, he could not go back without permission without the First Emperor calling him.

"General Meng, I understand what you mean. But now that there is no order, how can I return to Xianyang City?" Fusu frowned and expressed his worries.

Hearing this, Meng Tian smiled softly, took out a paper book from his armor, and then presented it to Fusu's desk. He then said: "Does the eldest son of the emperor know what this is?"

Fusu picked up the paper book in confusion, looked through it, and then asked, still puzzled: "General, please tell me what the effect of this thing is?"

Meng Tian smiled, faintly excited, and Fusu couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this. The general who commanded the entire army without changing his expression was so interested in this thing.

Then, Meng Tian said: "This thing is paper."

"Paper?"

Seeing Fusu's doubts, Meng Tian continued to explain: "The eldest son of Emperor Cai has already touched the paper book. Needless to say, it is light and thin, and its purpose is to replace bamboo slips and cloth for writing."

Hearing this, Fusu finally understood why Meng Tian was faintly excited. The function of this paper was actually for writing. As the eldest son of the emperor, he was knowledgeable and experienced, so he immediately understood the impact of the paper.

"General, this thing is really magical, I wonder where you got it from?" Fusu asked immediately.

"I got this from a prominent family in Shangjun. According to the noble family, this product was invented and sold by the Sishui County Sheriff's Office, and has been promoted in several counties around Sishui County." Meng Tian detailed the information he learned.

Detailed report.

Fusu nodded and said: "If I remember correctly, the governor of Sishui County should be Leping. This person has an average reputation, but I didn't expect that he could invent these things. This is really a person who cannot be judged by his appearance, just like a big man

General, you, a military general like you, created the writing brush with the vision of a Dasha literati."

"The eldest son of the emperor is ridiculous. Tian was able to create the writing brush by accident. However, it is really unexpected that Leping invented the paper book." Meng Tian waved his hand and said with a smile. Compared with the paper book, the creation of the writing brush is not as good as the paper book.

Worth mentioning.

"General, there is no need to be modest. Both pen and paper make writing extremely convenient. It can be said that they are inventions that have influenced all generations." Fusu praised happily, and then asked: "General, please give me the paper book."

, no matter what the purpose is, it doesn’t matter.”

At this time, Meng Tian stepped forward, saluted and whispered: "If the eldest son of the emperor wants to return to Xianyang City, this is an opportunity."

Fusu looked at Meng Tian in confusion, frowned and asked slightly worriedly: "What do you mean by the general's words? Please elaborate."

"The eldest son of the emperor can tell His Majesty the First Emperor about the paper. If so, wouldn't he be able to return to Xianyang City?" Meng Tian said deeply.
