In the Xiyang Palace, the Chief Secretary of the Huang Prefecture, Hao Wubo, visited the King of Xiyang. Liu Wenjing, who was on duty in the front yard, told the King of Xiyang that he was having a discussion with the Chief Secretary of the Prince of the Palace. Hao Wubo, then waited in the side hall.

"Are Liu Ji's room used to living in Huangzhou?"

"Ah, I'm worried about it, and I've adapted now."

Liu Wenjing is carving wax paper, while Hao Wu Bo is interesting. This is something that Yuwen Wen has recently made, called "mimeograph", and the wooden box placed on the side of Liu Wenjing's desk is a mimeographer.

The principle is very simple. First put a piece of wax paper on a smooth iron plate and use a stylus to "write" on the crayon. In fact, it is to carve the wax paper through and write the content to be written, and you can proceed to the next step.

Put a piece of white paper on the flat plate, then place the written (engraved) wax paper flat on the gauze net, and roll it on the wax paper with wooden rollers dipped ink, so that the ink can be printed on the paper through the wax paper, forming handwriting.

This printing method is very special, but it is also very troublesome. Writing with a stylus is completely different from writing with a brush. Just like engraving a bamboo slip with a knife, it is impossible for an unskilled person to write (engrave) for a day.

The state yamen has already started to use this mimeographer, and Hao Wubo has tried it, so he roughly knows its pros and cons: the so-called advantage is that after carving wax paper, he can print many official documents with the same content in batches.

The disadvantage is that it is the opposite of the advantages. If the number of official documents is small, it is better to engrave wax paper at that time than handwriting. If the mimeograph is not properly operated, it is easy to cause ink marks to be everywhere on the sleeves of the hands.

Therefore, the newly emerging mimeographs are only used in a small range in Huangzhou. However, in addition to the use of the government, this thing has received good reviews in the state schools. The gentlemen use this mimeograph to save a lot of time when setting questions.

There is another small disadvantage of mimeographing, that is, wax paper. The price of wax is not cheap, and the sources are only beeswax and insect wax. If mimeographing is promoted on a large scale, wax paper will be consumed and the cost is a problem.

Of course, this is nothing to Mr. Hao. Lighting candles every night in his mansion is no problem. Wax paper is no big deal, but he still has a question: Why is it not called wax paper, mimeograph?

Liu Wenjing wrote (engraved) characters on wax paper. He had been in contact with this thing for a short time, but he got it very quickly. After using a stylus to write (engraved) characters on wax paper, he mastered mimeographing skills.

With the rustling sound, he quickly finished writing and printed out one in a few seconds to start the inspection.

"Is Liu Jishi written in Kaishi? There is a hint of Zhong Yuanchang's charm." asked the content on the paper of Uncle Hao Wu.

"Hao Changshi is good at eyesight, and his official copied Zhong Yuanchang's calligraphy since he was a child."

"You can write such handwriting with a stencil, which is great skill." Hao Wu Bo was really impressed. If he had written it, he would probably not be able to write the charm of the brush font.

Zhong Yuanchang, namely Zhong Yao of the Three Kingdoms Cao Wei, was quite accomplished in calligraphy. His calligraphy was studied by later calligraphers such as Wang Xizhi. The two were called "King Zhong".

While talking, footsteps sounded outside. Liu Wenjing put down the paper and walked out. The head of the royal palace, Li Gang, came out of the study of King Xiyang, with an unpleasant expression and seemed to be in a bad mood.

Uncle Hao Wu also walked out of the side hall and saluted Li Gang with Liu Wenjing, but saw the man with a stern face, bowed his hand and passed by. The two couldn't help but look at each other.

Having parted in disagreement? Has the quarrel with the King of Xiyang again?

It was the King of Xiyang that actually won?

......

"Friction and friction are like the devil's pace..."

In the Yuzhu Courtyard of the Prince of Xiyang Palace, Yuwen Wen hummed a song. He sat on the couch, leaning back against a three-legged foot, and his legs spread out like a squid. This kind of sitting method is for sitting, a very rude and insulting sitting method.

When Jing Ke failed to assassinate the King of Qin, he used a scattering to Ying Zheng before his death, which was similar to the later generations' middle fingers towards others.

Of course, Yuwen Wen has no end to the end. He is in a good mood now because he won a great victory in the battle with the royal family chief Li Gang. It is said that "the victorious cat is as happy as a tiger". He couldn't help but hum a song.

When rescuing disasters, whether to rescue officials or people first, Yuwen Wen introduced a set of fallacies, which made Li Gang so angry that he almost burst into blood vessels, but he couldn't say it. After all, Yuwen Wen took into consideration his reputation and used "governing the country first to govern officials" to get back, which gave this person a step forward.

Some time ago, Zhou Faming improvised the pipa at the royal palace banquet last year, but was beaten by Li Gang, which made Yuwen Wen helpless and "defeated himself". The scene was extremely awkward. Now that he has won a game, he is naturally very happy.

Yang Lihua made tea aside, and when she saw her husband like this, she couldn't help but shake her head and smiled. She rarely saw Yuwen Wen lose her composure. Today, the other party could do this. I think she was in a really good mood.

"King..."

"The voice is too serious."

"Big ~ King, please use tea..."

Yang Lihua said coquettishly that this was Yuwen Wen's request, which was basically a bad taste. That is, the three female relatives were asked to call this in private, and it was considered a ** between the couple.

Yuwen Wen took the tea cup, took a sip and nodded: "Well, Lihua's tea making skills are getting better and better."

"It's big~ the king's tea is good."

"Wrong, it's the tea made in Hao Changshi's tea garden." Yu Wenwen filled another cup and sat up straight, "How, has your conclusion come out?"

Yang Lihua put the teapot and sat upright and replied: "I think that Huangzhou merchants may not make much money by selling tea in the north."

"It's right, it's almost enough to make a hard-earned money."

"Why did Erlang be busy for many years?"

Since we started talking about the serious matters, Yang Lihua's name for her husband became normal.

"Southerns are good at drinking tea and northerners are good at cheese paddles. No matter how capable they are, it is impossible to reverse this regional habit in a short time, but the transaction still has to be done, and it is done step by step."

"But no matter how good the tea leaves are, there is almost no tea drinking custom in the north. It is said to be a water disaster or a 'cheese slave'. When will the tea leaves in Huangzhou open up the Beidi market?"

"Well, tea needs to make money, but now it can only be made in the south, Shannan, Huainan, Huainan, Jiangnan, aren't they all markets?"

Speaking of this, Yuwen Wen became interested: "The tea made in Hao Changshi's tea garden is different from the tea you usually see, and the way of preparing tea is different, which leads to a completely different flavor. This is the difference between the tea produced in Huangzhou!"

"Which tea is brewed and brewed, and round tea and loose tea, which one do you like to drink now?"

"Since the mansion started to use loose tea to make tea, I really can't drink the tea made from the round tea. I can't stand the astringent smell without adding ingredients. I added ingredients... Alas, it's better to drink soup."
