Chapter 313: The printing workshop is completed, Xiao Ying reuses Li Qian
The next day.
Xiao Ying took Chen Xinghe to visit Ning Leshu, and the other three children also went along, mainly to get to know each other.
The house Ning Leshu bought was not big, just a two-courtyard house, and he also temporarily hired a few servants.
Seeing Xiao Ying and his family arrive as promised, he was so happy that he smiled from ear to ear.
Xiao Ying and the children had a rare moment of free time, so they did not enter the Immortal Mansion to practice at night, but stayed with Ning Leshu the whole time.
They stayed here for two days and only returned home on the day Chen Xinghe went to school.
Ning Leshu was quite reluctant to leave, so he made an appointment to visit Xiao Ying again in a few days.
Before going home, Xiao Ying specifically reminded Chen Xingyun and Chen Xinghe to pay attention to safety for the next period of time.
She suspected that the Xia family would become desperate and attack the children, but as long as they were not in the late stage of Qi Refining, there was no need to worry too much.
The Xia family has lost three people in the late Qi Refining stage at her hands, and even Xia Ang was seriously injured and escaped. It is estimated that they will not be able to send out a few decent masters in the future.
Not to mention that she actually guessed it right. That very night, the Xia family cultivators attacked Chen Xingyun and the other two.
The people who came were two masters of the sixth level of Qi Refining.
The two men had been monitoring the siblings for a whole day and found that they were protected by someone, so they did not dare to act rashly until they secretly took action at night.
Fortunately, the two men's guards were not very strong, so they did not take them seriously.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he broke in that night, he was caught off guard by two ferocious beasts at the sixth level of Qi Refining.
The two were defeated, feeling humiliated and regretful, but it was too late to regret.
The brother and sister did not kill them. They knew that their mother needed help, and they could not let go of these people who came to their door at the sixth level of Qi Refining.
The two of them admired their mother more and more. She was really prepared for a rainy day by contracting such a powerful beast for them.
Xiao Ying also made new progress. As soon as he returned home, someone came to report that the printing workshop had been completed.
Xiao Ying smiled with satisfaction, and immediately called Chen Xinghai, and asked someone to call Li Qian, Xiao Guo and Yu Yejin, and went to the printing workshop together.
"Madam, are we going into the mountains?"
Li Qian was still humble and cautious, with no sign of anything unusual.
However, after walking into the mountains for a while, he couldn't help but ask a question, and doubts arose in his heart.
"Well, you'll know the details when you get there."
Xiao Ying didn't say much.
She had been observing Li Qian unnoticeably along the way, but this man's disguise skills were so good that she couldn't tell what he looked like that night at all.
Li Qian had no choice but to suppress his inner doubts and followed her closely.
Of course he knew what was in the mountains.
Workshops are being built on these newly purchased mountains, and one has already been completed.
After his observation, he found that they were actually making paper!
I was surprised when I first discovered it. I didn't expect that Xiao Ying could actually make paper.
If it is really manufactured, it will definitely be another way to make money.
But he always felt that the other party's purpose was not limited to this, and might cause some trouble again.
Paper has always been the exclusive domain of the powerful, and no one else is allowed to interfere. Xiao Ying's behavior is undoubtedly a provocation.
As for the purpose of the other workshop, he was still unclear.
Seeing that they were heading towards the two workshops, he couldn't help but have some guesses.
Does Xiao Ying know his true identity?
If you knew, wouldn't you be worried about the secret being revealed when you took him to those two workshops?
If he didn't know, how would he explain why he deliberately lured him out that night?
Did he just think he might come, so he cheated?
He found that he could not understand Xiao Ying at all, and he had never understood her from the beginning to now.
But it's interesting, isn't it?
It took them more than an hour to reach their destination, and they deliberately avoided the road construction team.
After arriving at the workshop, Xiao Yingxian took a few people to visit the papermaking process.
The papermaking workshop has been put on track. Gu Yixian and others have carefully sorted out the entire process and have memorized everything.
Papermaking takes a long time and involves many steps, so Xiao Ying knew that he couldn't be impatient.
At present, the bark, bamboo and other materials have been soaked, and we have to wait for a while before proceeding to the next steps.
She just gave a few words of advice and encouragement, then took them to the printing workshop next door.
The printing workshop is not as big as the papermaking workshop, but it is no less important.
In the early stage, Xiao Ying still chose to use the purchased personnel as the core.
"Are you all curious about the purpose of this workshop?"
After the tour, Xiao Ying finally asked.
Except for Ling Yun and Chen Xinghai, the others all looked curious and nodded.
But Xiao Guo and Yu Yejin both adhered to the principle of not asking questions that should not be asked, so they remained silent along the way.
Li Qian was very surprised and had already guessed the purpose of Xiao Ying bringing him here.
“This is a printing workshop.”
Xiao Ying went straight to the point.
Several people couldn't help but look puzzled. Printing workshop? What does the lady want to print?
Could it be...
When they thought of that possibility, their expressions changed slightly, and Li Qian's heart moved.
As expected, Xiao Ying continued, "That's right, it's printed books. Books are expensive, making it difficult for countless people to read. If there were printed books, the price would be significantly reduced."
"lady……"
Yu Yejin couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. The lady was still the same lady, always thinking about the people.
Li Qian thought more and became more shocked.
If this printed book is really launched, it will definitely cause a huge sensation.
Xiao Ying has touched the cake of countless powerful families, and those people will not let her go.
From pinyin to papermaking to printing books, every step she took was challenging the bottom line of those powerful families.
He couldn't understand why she did this.
Is there really someone in this world who is dedicated to serving the people without asking for anything in return?
She is clearly a cultivator, and a cultivator with great opportunities and talents. Her future is limitless, and she may even be able to establish a foundation and unify the four kingdoms!
Such an existence, logically speaking, does not need to care about worldly matters at all.
But she just regards those ordinary people as more important than anything else.
Promote high-yield crops and hope that more people will read, including women.
He really couldn't understand how such a person could exist in this world. He was completely different from the monks he knew.
Li Qian laughed at himself in his heart. Compared with Xiao Ying, what was he, a genius recognized by the four countries?
However, he only has a better talent for cultivation, but it seems that he has not made any contribution to the people and the Moon Kingdom.
He sighed inwardly and couldn't help but admire Xiao Ying.
Perhaps, they were wrong from the beginning. Practicing Buddhism does not mean to be separated from the secular world.
Xiao Ying took in everyone's reactions and saw shock flash across Li Qian's eyes, but he disguised it well on his face, so he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"The process of printing books is extremely complicated. I asked you to come here to overcome the difficulties, and managers are of paramount importance."
She looked at Li Qian calmly.
"Li Qian, are you willing to be the manager of the printing workshop? In charge of the entire printing workshop?"
