12 Yu Erzhen. Gold Master

Chu Tianxiu left the hall with her sleeves, but she was worried.

He thought about whether to go back to the Hunhou Mansion and ask Lao Hunhou for thousands of taels of silver to buy a papermaking workshop.

But Lao Hunhou refused to keep him at home for a meal of supper, and no matter how he looked, he didn't look like a person who was willing to pay thousands of taels of silver.

Seeing Chu Tianxiu's face full of sorrow, Zuer pulled down and begged the second wife, but she didn't even give it to her. She couldn't help but hesitate: "Son-in-law, why don't you... ask the princess? She might be willing to go out!"

"The princess is rich?"

Chu Tianxiu was surprised.

"have!"

Joey nodded seriously.

The princess was enthroned by the imperial court, comparable to a marquis and very rich.

Chu Tianxiu thought about it, but she had no choice but to go to his wife to ask for the money.

Alas, he, a son-in-law, seems to be unable to avoid the life of being a soft man!

...

Yu Yuan.

A graceful figure, holding a two-foot sword, danced his sword in the empty snow in the courtyard, wandering like a stunning geese.

Li Yu is practicing the clan sword technique of the Li family.

As a descendant of the Pingwang Mansion, the family has been fighting on the battlefield for generations, practicing swords and riding and shooting, and is even more familiar with the military writings and strategies.

Chu Tianxiu came to Yuyuan and saw Li Yu dancing in the snow. She was stunned.

Wait for her to stop.

He then stepped forward and asked with a hint of blushing and awkwardness, wanting to buy a hemp paper workshop for a thousand taels of silver.

"My husband wants to buy a workshop to make paper?"

Li Yu's eyes were so beautiful that he put away his sword, wiped away the sweat beads from his forehead, and said softly: "This is a good thing! Pen, ink, calligraphy and inkstone are essential things for literati.

The martial style of our Pingwang Mansion is too strong and the heat is too strong. It is good to set up a papermaking workshop to add some cultural heritage and wood luck to the mansion!"

When she was in a private school in the royal palace, she used hemp paper to practice writing.

Hemp paper is much lighter than bulky bamboo slips, and is a good thing.

But the cost of hemp paper is very high, and few people can afford it.

In such a huge Jinling City, only the powerful and wealthy families occasionally use it. Even most Confucian scholars and scholars from small families cannot afford to use hemp paper, let alone ordinary people.

My husband wants to buy hemp paper workshops to make hemp paper. This is a serious matter, adding the literary style of the royal palace.

The only worry is that it is difficult to sell hemp paper, and it will inevitably lead to losses.

But she had other considerations.

Even if you lose money by buying a workshop to make paper, it is not a big bad thing.

My husband has nothing to do in the Prince Ping's Mansion. A carefree and leisurely little marquis who come to the door to wander around will inevitably cause trouble everywhere.

It was not easy for him to recommend himself to be an official to the court.

She went to find Princess Xiang Ling yesterday, and the princess agreed to say a few good words in front of the emperor. However, it is still unknown whether she can persuade the emperor.

If your husband wants to make paper, he is much better than he is doing nothing. He goes to Jinling City to make friends with playboys and friends everywhere.

"Just no money... the second wife doesn't pay any money!"

Chu Tianxiu scratched her head, helpless.

"Since the royal family's public account is not approved, then I will get the money from my private account."

Li Yu said with a faint smile.

Thousand taels of silver are really not a big deal for her princess.

As the only daughter of King Ping, she received 100 taels of silver from the official account of Prince Ping’s Mansion every month, which was the private money she had when she was born.

After saving every day, after eliminating the expenses, nearly 10,000 taels of silver have been accumulated over the past 20 years.

This is just a small income from her.

Over the years, she has bought more than a dozen shops in the bustling city of Jinling City, and has some rents every month.

Most importantly, she was named princess by the emperor at the age of ten.

Her official title was "Princess Danyang". There is a fief of her - Danyang County. It has 300 hectares of private land and a total of 3,000 households.

Danyang County is located one hundred miles upstream of the Jinling Imperial City, which is the barrier of the Jinling Imperial City, the key to the river, and the important military base.

Putting her fiefdom in Danyang shows how much the emperor and Empress Dowager Shen love her.

Although the princess of Danyang did not have the power to govern a county, the taxes of these three thousand households did not have to be paid to the court, and they all belonged to her.

There is a Ma'an Mountain in Danyang County, and a copper mine was found on the mountain for her to cast copper coins.

I don’t have money to dig copper and cast it myself.

So, Princess Danyang is very rich.

"I also plan to build a larger papermaking workshop and hire more craftsmen and workers... so that the cost of paper can be reduced."

Chu Tianxiu said quickly.

"No problem. I have a wasteland outside Jinling City with dozens of acres, which can build a large workshop. I will give you another 5,000 taels of silver to expand the workshop. You don't have many people under you, so I'll ask Di'er to help you recruit people and build a workshop!"

Li Yu said casually.

She thought quickly in her heart.

Building a new workshop will probably keep your husband busy for a long time and not cause trouble in the Pingwang Mansion and Jinling City.

Over time, if you do something steadily, your husband can gradually change his habit of dandy and squandering.

Maybe the emperor and the world gradually forgot how playful Xiaohunhou was before.

It would be very cost-effective to change the husband's habit of playing dandy for five thousand taels of silver.

Chu Tianxiu was immediately overjoyed, "It's great. I've already thought of a new papermaking technique that can greatly improve the process of hemp paper. However, will these craftsmen leak my new technology? Is there a way to restrain these craftsmen?"

"My county lord has 3,000 households in the fief, and can eliminate some farmers and join the craftsmen. All the craftsmen in the papermaking workshop are included in my fief. They are my fief, and I dare not reveal your papermaking skills."

Li Yu didn't think this was a problem, and said, "Also, husband, you don't need to go to the second wife for any big or small matters in the future. You'll be fine if you lack money or people, and you'll be fine if you lack land!"

Her husband of Princess Danyang would be so humble to ask for advice from the second wife.

Chu Tianxiu was so moved that she was almost crying.

Yu'er's big financial owner is too strong.

The subordinates have money, some people, and land.

He never had to ask the second wife for that stinky woman again.

"Bo~, thank you, Mrs. Yu'er! I'll make paper for my husband. After I make it, let you enjoy a high-quality life first."

Chu Tianxiu suddenly approached and kissed Li Yu on the cheek.

He turned around and pulled Zuer, called Dier, and ran to Jinling City to buy a hemp paper workshop.

Li Yu was kissed by him and was stunned for a moment.

When she realized, her cheeks were instantly filled with clouds, and her heart was as pounding as a deer. She bit her red lips lightly and stomped her feet in anger.

Humph, this disciple gave him some good color and was so arrogant. The two of them had not yet chosen an auspicious day to hold a wedding ceremony, so how could they imprison her!
