Chapter 223 The Different Xue Wen
"I'm finally home. I'm almost exhausted during this time." Xue Wenze was freed from the busy state of Yan, and he rushed directly to Qi without stopping.
Hou Zi, the gatekeeper of the Prince's Mansion, saw Xue Wen coming back, and greeted him with a smile: "Housekeeper, it's good that you're back too."
Seeing that there was only one person outside the door, Xue Wen asked, "Why is there only you in the monkey, where is Xiaopeng?"
The monkey said: "He went out with the king. It should be the place where the ship was built, because Jing Qi came to look for the king."
When Xue Wen heard that Zhou Zihao had also returned, he was very excited, because this way, he could learn more from Zhou Zihao.
Xue Wen asked: "Did the king come back alone? Or did he bring someone else with him?"
The monkey said, "Several people also came back."
At this time, Tong Muzi and Yu Linzi also came out.
"Hi monkey, who is this?" Tong Muzi asked.
Tong Muzi has been in and out these few days, and he is already familiar with the guard. He and Yu Linzi often go out, usually not because they like to go out, but because Mr. Gongsun often needs to buy some daily necessities.
Let others do it for me, and I am not familiar with it, so I can only let Tong Muzi and Yu Linzi go.
The monkey said: "This is the housekeeper of the Prince's Mansion, Mr. Xue Wenxue."
"Hello Mr. Xue, I'm Tong Muzi, this is my brother Yu Linzi." Tong Muzi introduced himself.
Xue Wen glanced at them, he would never neglect young people like them, "Hello, how are you living here?"
Tong Muzi said: "Very well, then let's go out first, my husband told us to go out and do some shopping."
"Okay, you guys go." Xue Wen said.
Tong Muzi took Yu Linzi away, leaving Xue Wen and the others to continue moving things.
Xiaopeng saw a carriage parked at the door, and said to Zhou Zihao inside: "My lord, it seems that someone in the mansion has returned."
Zhou Zihao followed his reputation and saw that old guy Xue Wen and his tired appearance, he must have traveled a long distance.
"That's Butler Xue, he came back from Yan Kingdom." Zhou Zihao said casually.
Xiaopeng opened his small eyes, but he still couldn't see clearly, it was too far away.Zhou Zihao was very surprised to see that he was his housekeeper at a glance. Could this be the legendary clairvoyant?
How did he know that Zhou Zihao unknowingly used his perspective eyes to see through the past at a glance, just like focusing, and suddenly brought the things he wanted to see closer to his eyes.
Xiaopeng continued to speed up and rushed to the door. He hadn't seen the housekeeper for a long time.
When Xue Wen was there, the house often had delicious food, and the housekeeper was very generous. He usually didn't eat alone with the money he earned outside, and would take part of it to share the results with the brothers and sisters in the house.
This is also the reason why Butler Xue Wen is extremely popular in the mansion.
Xiaopeng got out of the car, and then opened the door of the carriage to let Zhou Zihao get out of the car.
Xue Wen also saw Zhou Zihao, walked over with a smile, and said, "My lord, I miss you so much."
Zhou Zihao was taken aback by his enthusiasm, thought he was going to pounce on him, so he quickly stepped aside and said, "Old man Xue, why are you so excited?"
Xue Wen was a little embarrassed, but quickly resolved, "I'm not happy to see you, I want to get close to you."
Xue Wen was just an unknown butler before, but since Zhou Zihao's return, his status has grown like a rocket.
Especially during the time when Zhou Zihao went to fight, he stepped in to solve many problems, such as the Yan State matter. If it weren't for him, Zhong Yue and the others would not know where to catch him blind.
And here in Linzi, everyone in the chamber of commerce is headed by him, and he is indispensable in every gathering, because whenever there is a crisis, Xue Wen's words are like fairy voices, always pointing out the way for him.
Zhou Zihao praised: "You have done a good job, you can apply what you have learned in all aspects."
Xue Wen said: "This is because the king is smart and taught well. Otherwise, I would not know how to solve those problems. If it weren't for the notebook you left, I would still be at a loss like them."
Zhou Zihao said: "At your age, you still have such a strong learning ability. It's really okay, but you should also pay attention to rest. When you come back from Yan Kingdom, you should take a good rest for a few days to nourish your body."
The tiredness on Xue Wen's face was hard to hide, and he needed to catch up on sleep. With such a long distance and the bumpy road, it must be too much for him with his body.
"That's fine, my lord. I'll go back to my room to rest." Xue Wen twisted his exhausted body and walked towards the mansion.
Zhou Zihao said to Xiaopeng: "Well, let's go in too."
"My lord, you go in first. I'll stay here with the monkey and pack the carriage." Xiaopeng said to Zhou Zihao when he saw that the monkey was struggling to clean up by himself.
Zhou Zihao said, "That's fine, I'll go in by myself."
In the palace, Duanmulei's copying work was almost done. There were not many materials left on the bookshelf. He only needed to copy for a few days to complete the task.
This job of copying books is not an easy task, he has to revise while copying, and turn it into a pleasing article.
After the modification, it is more interesting to read, so it is barely completed.
In the past few days, I have become more and more proficient in writing on paper with a brush, and I feel very good.
In the city of Linzi, half paper and half bamboo are now transformed, and bamboo slips are still mostly used, because the power of habit is too strong.
They think this paper is useful, but they still keep it for a while, and they can't find someone to copy it, so it is difficult to promote the paper.
If Zhou Zihao had come to this problem, it would have been resolved in a short time.
Publishing books directly on paper, and publishing very good-looking novels, has obvious advantages. Everyone will hand out a copy, and when they use it well, they will naturally be willing to spend money.
Zhou Zihao returned to the room, lying on the bed, thinking about the cannon fired today, which was wasted. He couldn't swim, but even if he could swim, it wouldn't be possible because the boat was designed to be too high.
It is also time for people to learn from his steam engine, make more and use it in other aspects of life, but there is one place that is very much needed now, and that is the mine.
Zhou Zihao hasn't visited the place where the ore is mined, let alone whether the steam engine can trigger the revolution, but it can still make the production and life of Qi more convenient.
Thinking about it, he released another steam engine from the system and put it in the corner of the room. When the time comes, let Xue Wen find someone with better smelting technology and put it into production.
"It seems that this is another waste." Zhou Zihao was worried about his treasury again, and he said before that there is no need to worry about money.
But there is no idea now, and it is impossible to rely on those few businessmen to do it. The daily income is only a little, and it will be realized in the Year of the Monkey.
Zhou Zihao thought about using that little knowledge and existing weapons to go out and talk to other vassal states, hoping that they would contribute more.
But deny it all...
