Rebirth of Tang Dynasty as a dad

My son-in-law wants this business. Once this is done, the new paper business will be given to me. "Du Shaoqing said the purpose, which is also his intention, to win the future papermaking business. In fact, what he didn't say is that he has been exposed to papermaking technology before, and as long as he gives it to skilled workers, he will definitely be able to improve it.

Hearing the son-in-law's condition, Li Er couldn't help laughing and scolding: "You are not the one who is short of money, why do you have to do that business? You lost your status for nothing."

"I can't help it. The family is short of money. The medical clinic is a money-losing business. The Changle House is a bottomless pit. I'm still preparing for the reconstruction plan of Chang'an City, demolition compensation, reconstruction, etc. I'm afraid I can't do it without other businesses." Du Shaoqing cried poorly.

Hearing this, Li Er didn't shirk any further, he thought to himself that this son-in-law is definitely a loyal minister, so there are so many good deeds, so he rushes to pay back money, which is trying to save money for the treasury by changing the law.

"Okay, sure, the city renovation plan, the ministers are in the final discussion, and you can't let you bear all the money. At that time, there will be people from the six departments to cooperate with you. This is a good thing, but you must be cautious when implementing it. Let the people complain." Li Er nodded.

Du Shaoqing won so many projects with a smile, and his heart was already full of joy. The imperial court took the initiative to help with the demolition.

"Don't be in a hurry to go back, you just came, first draw a full-body portrait of me before leaving." Li Er stopped Du Shaoqing who was about to leave.

Du Shaoqing's scalp went numb, why did he always ask for a painting wherever he went?My poems are good, how come no one asks for poems?

"Next time, I'm too busy to get away today." He refused, but he was actually afraid that if he met some familiar ministers to discuss matters later, he would also give up to Hua. I'm afraid it would happen today. The House of Representatives is gone.

Sure enough, he came up with whatever he wanted, and as soon as he finished speaking, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others came together, talking about the city renovation plan. Actively get up early and enter the palace.

Chapter 295 Wei Wang Li Tai

On the second day, Du Shaoqing saw the papermaking workshop of Li Ergi under the leadership of the servant Lao Gao. The paper made from mulberry bark is light and soft, with strong tensile strength, and it can be broken like cotton wool, so it is also called cotton paper.

The papermaking materials of the entire Tang Dynasty can be said to be varied, basically using Cai Lun’s improved papermaking technique, mulberry bark is mostly used in the north, straw is mostly used in the south of the Yangtze River, rattan paper made from rattan bark, and paper made from fishing net rags are collectively referred to as Hemp paper and so on.

But with so many types, only rice paper can be used for writing, and the others are suitable for daily use.

"Mr. Du, this workshop will be entrusted to you. If there is anything missing, please ask Mr. Du, and this old slave will go and supervise it immediately." The servant Gao said.

Du Shaoqing asked with a smile: "From now on, this workshop, these people are all mine?"

"Your Majesty's original words, all the people or things belong to the son-in-law alone." Lao Gao was stunned for a moment, and almost laughed, thinking that this son-in-law is not like a greedy person.

"Then can you send me a team of guards? After all, papermaking needs to be kept secret for the time being. If criminals learn it, it will be troublesome." Du Shaoqing suggested.

Lao Gao was puzzled, "My son-in-law, there are a lot of people in the papermaking art world. If others learn it, it should be a good thing. It can greatly increase the output of paper. Do you need to keep it secret?"

Du Shaoqing quickly shook his head, "That's not what I said. What if they are spies from other countries? After learning our skills, go back and educate their people well. Will the country be used to attack us when the country is strong? So it's better to be cautious. .”

Um!This is absolutely correct, Lao Gao immediately turned serious, and said with a serious face: "Don't worry, my son-in-law, this old slave will arrange for defense, and I will tell His Majesty what you said when I get back."

Then Du Shaoqing found the old steward of the workshop and ordered them to empty the materials of the original workshop and replace the papermaking materials with freshly felled bamboo. When the old steward heard that bamboo was used to make paper, he shook his head, saying that someone had used this method before. , but bamboo is tough and can be soaked for a long time without losing its toughness, so it can't be used.

Du Shaoqing smiled lightly, it's because you soaked for too short a time, bamboo paper must be soaked for at least a hundred days.

The old steward was skeptical, but he still did things according to his words, and then Du Shaoqing went back. Papermaking can't be done in a day, just wait.

Back home, in the courtyard of the Earl's Mansion, Xiao Xuanxuan was playing with someone, Du Shaoqing saw, why is he here?

This person is also an acquaintance, the fourth prince Li Tai, the king of Feng Wei, the brother of Princess Changle, and the fourth uncle of Xiao Xuanxuan, is a fat man under 20 years old.

But at this time, he was tormented enough by his niece. Li Tai came to find Du Shaoqing, but when he was not there, Xiao Xuanxuan pestered his fourth uncle to play, playing with cat and mouse. The cat was a ready-made big cat.

Li Tai is stupid, why me?Do you see that uncle and I are fat, like a mouse?Have you eaten such a fat mouse?

Xiao Xuanxuan smiled, stretched out her hand above her head, rubbed Li Tai's round belly with her feet, and explained solemnly that the fourth uncle was too fat, and her father said it was not good for health, so she should run to lose weight. For your own good.

run?lose weight?You can kill me, Li Tai has a hundred reluctances in his heart, he is a fat man, he is panting when he walks, and even wants to take a soft sedan for the distance to the toilet, how can he have the heart to play games with you?

But now in Du's house, there are almost no servants. Li Lizhi is in charge of the pharmacy and many affairs, and there are only children at home. Xiao Xuanxuan thinks that the fourth uncle is deliberately lazy and has a bad attitude towards losing weight, so she stands at the door and faces Li Taiwei smile.

Then he shouted at the big cat: "Little Meow, chase him!"

Pointing at Li Tai, the little Miaomiao, who had just had a full meal, was very energetic, and rushed towards Li Taifei with a whistling sound.

Several of his guards panicked, but where can they stop a tiger?All of a sudden, Li Tai was thrown to the ground by Xiao Miaomiao and held him down. It was really an enlarged cat catching mice, and Xiao Xuanxuan jumped up happily beside him.

Li Tai wants to cry but has no tears, what kind of niece is this?Is there anyone who bullies my uncle like this?

"I'm not playing anymore, let me get up, can I go home?" Li Tai shouted at Xiao Xuanxuan.

Xiao Xuanxuan stood beside her with her hands behind her back and shook her head seriously, "Fourth Uncle, we must be serious about losing weight. You should promise to get up and run away, or I will let Xiao Miao Miao sleep on you."

As soon as the words were finished, the tiger plopped down on Li Tai's body and almost squeezed out Li Tai's breakfast. Li Tai, who was full of pain, became angry and shouted to the guards: "Go and call my sister Changle, Take care of this child, how can you play like this?"

Xiao Xuanxuan simply sat on the ground beside her, clapped her little hands and said, "Go, go, mother went to Changle House in the south of the city today, and it won't be until noon to go back and forth."

It's over, Li Tai gave up, looked at this child, felt that today is not good for him, he shouldn't go out, gasped for a while and then subdued: "Little Xuanxuan, how about we discuss it?"

"Don't discuss it, sister Xiao Wu taught it. Some people say that discussing it must be thinking of deceiving children." The little girl turned her head and didn't even look at it.

"Fourth Uncle, I agree to play this game, but I can't run fast because I'm so fat. Your tiger runs too fast, and you catch up in no time. It's not fun. How about you being the cat that chases me?" Li Tai said .

The little girl stood up with a smile, and said with a long voice in agreement: "Oh that's it, okay, okay, little Miaomiao, let's play games and lose weight together with my uncle."

After a stick of incense, Li Tai cried, didn't you agree to run and chase me?Why?Why are you riding a tiger?Isn't this still a tiger chasing me?If you don't learn well at a young age, who are you cheating on?

When Du Shaoqing opened the door and came back, Li Tai had already taken off all his robes in the yard, only a single shirt and trousers, and was still running, soaked in sweat, with a tiger carrying a small Xuanxuan leisurely pretended to chase someone.

Du Shaoqing was stunned, what was the trouble?

When Li Tai saw that Du Shaoqing was back, he was so happy that he almost cried. He threw himself into the latter's arms and said out of breath, "Brother-in-law, you are considered to be back. If you don't come back again, I'm afraid I will kill you today." The explanation is here, your precious daughter is too difficult to coax."

Xiao Xuanxuan turned over and got off the tiger's back, narrowing her eyes as if asking for credit, and said, "Daddy, you see I'm helping fourth uncle lose weight, isn't it useful?

By the way, fourth uncle, I'll go find the large scale at my house and ask Dad to weigh you on the wall to see how much you've lost? "

Li Tai didn't finish listening, and passed out directly.

Chapter 296 Demolition Countdown

Du Shaoqing asked someone to lift up the fourth prince, and took his daughter to explain: "You girl only knows how to mess around. Your fourth uncle's fat man didn't eat in a day. If you want him to lose weight in a day, I'm afraid you will die of exhaustion." can't do it.

Besides, you are small, and I hung you on the scale hook when I weighed you. Your fourth uncle is such an adult, how can there be a scale hook? "

The little girl thought for a while, nodded and said, "Then fourth uncle needs to run every day to lose weight? Then what should we do? He doesn't live in our house either.

How about starting tomorrow, I will let Xiao Miaomiao go to his house every day, and watch him run around before coming back, hehe, if mother knows that I can help fourth uncle lose weight, she will definitely praise me. "

Pfft, the four guards who were carrying Li Tai beside him burst out laughing. Fortunately, the prince passed out, otherwise he would have fainted again when he heard what the little princess said.

What does Li Tailai do?It’s still about painting, Du Shaoqing is very troublesome, even though the other party’s banner is to compose the topography, Du Shaoqing still bluntly refused, there are many talents who draw maps in Chaozhong, how can I have time to accompany you to compile them when I’m so busy Book?

Li Tai was renamed King of Wei last year. His Majesty was very kind and agreed that he could stay in Chang'an without going to fiefdom, set up a school, and presided over the compilation of a book recording the ten geography of the Tang Dynasty. The name is Kuo Dizhi, so Li Tai Taking advantage of this opportunity, he attracted many ministers.

Du Shaoqing knew clearly that this prince also wanted the throne, especially when the prince was depressed last year, but then the prince came back from a desperate situation, and Li Tai didn't expect it. Who knows if this fat prince has any hatred behind him?So he doesn't want to get too close with each other.

"Brother-in-law, I heard that you are going to start a class recently, specializing in teaching painting skills. Since you have no time to do it yourself, I will send a few people over then, how about you teach me?" Li Tai corrected his words.
