What she got after going through 81 kinds of difficulties was that the old rogue Liu Bang wanted to replace the crown prince when he was old, so where should Lu Zhi put her?
"Who I marry is my business, none of your business. Besides, what's the point of me following Brother Chen Fang first?" Lu Zhi said bluntly.
Yi Xiaochuan looked at Chen Fang coldly. All of this was done by Chen Fang. Isn't this just nonsense? This is something that will change history. How dare he do this? Doesn't he want to go back?
Chen Fang naturally saw Yi Xiaochuan's eyes. Was he going to attack? He was still a little bit afraid of Yi Xiaochuan's strength. This guy had practiced with Xiang Liang, so he put his hand in his pocket and touched the pistol. If Yi Xiaochuan dared to attack, he would definitely beat you into a cripple.
Now that you know you are no match for your opponent by force, but you still don't use weapons, wouldn't that be a fool?
"Chen Fang, do you still want to go back? Why are you changing things here so casually?"
"What's it to you? I can go back when I want to, so you, Master Yi, don't have to worry about it."
Liu Bang looked at them and finally had the space to interrupt.
"Hello, Miss Lu Zhi. I'm Liu Bang, the head of the Sishui Pavilion. Everyone in the entire Pei County knows me..." Liu Bang began to brag in front of Lu Zhi. This was the girl he fell in love with at first sight.
Lu Zhi felt very disgusted with Liu Bang in front of her. It was bad enough that he was a ruffian, but now he was also involved with Yi Xiaochuan.
"Get lost. If you try to take advantage of me again, I'll ask Brother Chen Fang to break your legs."
Lu Zhi said bluntly that Liu Bang was thick-skinned and didn't care at all about losing face. Anyway, he didn't have such a thing as shame.
"Yi Xiaochuan, that's all I have to say to you. Don't bother us in the future." After saying this, Chen Fang left with Lu Zhi. He didn't want to stay here any longer. Liu Bang was so damn disgusting.
Yi Xiaochuan:............
Liu Bang looked at the backs of the two people in the distance and said, "Don't worry, brother! I will do my best to let you marry Lu Zhi." Chen Fang was right. How could he change history so casually?
Yi Xiaochuan has killed countless people just for this broken history.
"Brother, are you really willing to help me?" Hearing that Yi Xiaochuan was willing to help him, Liu Bang excitedly grabbed his shoulders.
Yi Xiaochuan said confidently:
"I, Yi Xiaochuan, always keep my word. I will go to Lu's mansion and ask Lu Gong for your hand in marriage!" Yi Xiaochuan thought that this was ancient times, and you should always listen to your parents. When the time comes, tell Lu Gong that Liu Bang has a promising future and brag about it. Lu Gong will definitely marry Lu Zhi to Liu Bang.
"Brother, just wait until you get the beauty!"
"Haha, I'll trouble you, brother!"
Hearing Yi Xiaochuan's words, Liu Bang laughed happily.
Yi Xiaochuan is playing both a role and a disadvantage. On the one hand, he opposes the backwardness of the ancient times and does not want to kill those "innocent" people. On the other hand, he wants to use ancient rules to restrain Lu Zhi. What is going on?
"Brother Chen Fang, was I too harsh just now?" Lu Zhi leaned against Chen Fang and said.
"How could that be? This is how you treat your enemies. I believe Zhier will never be so mean to me, right?" Chen Fang joked.
"I definitely won't, Brother Chen Fang, I'm very gentle."
Seeing that Lv Zhi was like a foxy woman with a pitiful look on her face, Chen Fang's heartbeat quickened. This scene was seen by Lv Su, who looked at the two in surprise, wondering how they could be together so quickly.
"Sister, Master Chen, what are you doing?"
Suddenly, when Chen Fang and Lu Zhi were being affectionate, an angry shout came from the backyard. Hearing this familiar shout, Lu Zhi was struck by lightning and quickly broke free from Chen Fang's arms.
Chapter 253 Lü Zhi feels disgusted
Lu Zhi was so shy, like someone who had been caught doing something wrong, flustered and ashamed. Chen Fang looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lu Su standing behind him with an angry look on her face, and couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
"Sister, why are you hugging Master Chen? I'm going to tell Daddy." Lu Su said mischievously. She would not tell Lu Gong of course, but just wanted to tease her sister.
After bidding farewell to the two sisters, Chen Fang came to the main hall to find Lu Gong. If nothing unexpected happened, the Lu family should be facing a financial crisis soon.
Seeing Chen Fang, Lu Gong quickly stood up and said with a kind smile:
"My benefactor, you are here, please take a seat!"
"Thank you, Lu Gong!" Chen Fang bowed and sat down.
"I wonder how you are doing in my house these days? Have you been neglectful in any way?"
After Chen Fang sat down, Lu Gong asked the servants to serve tea and asked with a smile.
"I am living very well in Lu Gong's mansion. Thank you very much, Lu Gong."
"Also, I am only Lu Gong's junior, so please don't call me benefactor anymore!" I'm going to marry your daughter soon, and calling you benefactor is confusing the generations.
Chen Fang cupped his hands and spoke politely.
"Mr. Chen has done a great favor to my Lu family. What's wrong with me calling him benefactor?"
"But since Master Chen doesn't like it, I will call Master Chen my nephew from now on! Is there anything important that you come here for?"
Lu Gong stroked his gray beard, and was increasingly satisfied with Chen Fang's modesty and courtesy, and his lack of arrogance. He knew that Chen Fang probably came here for something, and would not come for no reason.
"Does Lu Gong recognize this thing?" After saying that, Chen Fang took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it over.
"Mr. Chen, what is this?" Lu Gong thought it was silk, but it turned out not to be.
"This thing, Lu Gong, can be used for writing. I just learned about the production process." Chen Fang said lightly.
Lu Gong quickly took out the pen and ink and started writing on the paper. He immediately felt that writing was very smooth. This was much more convenient than bamboo slips and silk. He asked excitedly.
"My dear nephew, how much does this thing cost?" It would be great if the cost was low. As long as it was less than half of the cost of the bamboo slips, it would be profit. This amount is much more than the words recorded on the bamboo slips.
When Chen Fang was watching the drama, he couldn't understand why Yi Xiaochuan, this idiot, had been in Daqin for so long but didn't make the paper. If you knew the principle, couldn't you just do more experiments? Maybe he just wanted to pick up girls.
"This is made of hemp, tree bark, bamboo and rice sheets, and can be used for writing paper like silk. How much does this cost, Lu Gong?"
"My dear nephew, what you said is true. If it is true, it will benefit the world." Lu Gong smiled and stroked his white beard. What he didn't understand was that Chen Fang knew such a good craft, so why did he tell him about it?
"Lü Gong, I am willing to use this technology as a betrothal gift to marry Miss Lü Zhi. What do you think?" Chen Fang believed that Lü Gong would agree. He was a smart man.
As expected, Lu Gong smiled after hearing this. "I know what kind of person my nephew is. I wonder what you think of this matter. If you are willing, I will agree."
What Lu Gong said was bullshit. He clearly knew that Lu Zhi liked Chen Fang. Even if Lu Zhi didn't want to, he had to marry her to Chen Fang. Would such a huge betrothal gift be lost?
Were the ancient parents’ orders a joke?
At this time, Lu Zhi outside the door was anxious, and hurriedly pushed the door open and said, "Dad, there is no need to ask, my daughter is willing to marry Mr. Chen."
Just now Chen Fang told her about coming to Lu Gong to propose marriage, so she had been eavesdropping outside the door. When she heard that her father wanted to ask for her opinion, she naturally couldn't help it.
"You little boy, how can you be so rude?" Lu Gong said pretending to be angry.
"It's okay. Miss Zhier and I fell in love at first sight. I hope Mr. Lu will help us." Chen Fang said with a bow.
"Well, since you two love each other, I will help you achieve your goal. I will choose a day for your wedding." Lu Gong said earnestly. Now their family can finally rely on Chen Fang, the big tree.
Next, Chen Fang prepared to start building a papermaking workshop.
"Brother Chen Fang, we don't have much silver left, and we might be in trouble." Lu Zhi said in embarrassment. They didn't have much money when they fled to Pei County. In the play, they were able to get by only because Yi Xiaochuan held a charity banquet.
Chen Fang looked down on these operations. They were just for the benefit of the rich. Papermaking alone was a source of endless income.
"How can this matter be difficult for your husband?" Chen Fang took out a piece of gold from his "pocket" and handed it over. In the Qin Dynasty, copper was also called gold, and gold was also gold. But how much gold refers to gold, and how much gold refers to copper.
"Oh, so many. And we haven't gotten married yet, so you are not my husband." Lu Zhi said coquettishly.
"Why do you still want to regret it?"
"That's not certain."
. . . . . .
The two of them started quarreling in the yard, which made Lu Su, who was standing next to them, extremely envious. No one knew what she was envious of. If you wanted to join in, Chen Fang would be happy to do so.
Papermaking is not a matter of a day or two. It takes more than a month to make a batch of paper. There are eight steps in handmade papermaking, and the most time-consuming step is the "sun-bleaching" step.
This step alone takes a week, because the original color of the pulp can be grayish white, light yellow, or brown, depending on the material.
Of course, this is still based on the premise that Chen Fang has all the detailed steps. If the ancients were to explore it, it might take several years.
In this era without bleach, the only way to make paper white is to expose it to sunlight. Of course, off-white and light yellow paper can also be used directly, no problem. But brown is definitely not acceptable, because it is darker in color and the writing is hard to read.
The first batch of paper was still intended to be made into white paper, because white paper is the most perfect paper, its beauty even exceeds that of silk, and it looks more precious.
In the future, paper can be divided into grades, and white paper will only be supplied to the royal family and the nobles, so it doesn't matter if the output is smaller.
The scholar-official class and the common people used natural color paper. In this era of clear class distinctions, this practice was more in line with the wishes of the powerful and allowed them to demonstrate their sense of superiority.
During this period, Chen Fang also recruited 30 guards in Pei County, all of whom were required to be from the lower classes of society, preferably from farming families. Chen Fang had only one requirement for recruiting people, which was loyalty, and other conditions could be relaxed.
But we won't be stupid enough to give them weapons right away. This still needs time to test, and we have to take it one step at a time.
The paper making over there is in full swing.
"I wonder how Lu Gong plans to sell these papers?" Chen Fang asked him.
"Since you are going to marry my child, you might as well become my father-in-law. I wonder what your plans are." Lu Gong was just a scholar who relied on his literary fame. How could he do business?
Chen Fang thought to himself, since you want to call me your son-in-law, then I have to go find Lu Zhi tonight and confirm this title.
"Father-in-law, I have two plans. One is for the Lu family to set up their own caravan to conduct sales, but given the current situation, I'm afraid it will develop slowly. The second is distribution, and we can simply hold an investment promotion conference at the same time." Chen Fang thought and said, could a small business like selling some paper be difficult for Chen Fang?
"My dear son-in-law, what is this investment promotion conference?" Lu Gong asked puzzledly.
"That's it... In this way we can borrow their shop and all we have to do is collect the money." Chen Fang didn't care about this small profit. By then, the world would belong to him, Chen Fang.
Do you still care about the profit from papermaking?
"My dear son-in-law, this is a great idea. Let's do as you say." Lu Gong exclaimed. This is truly a genius. He can think of such a method. It seems that it was right for their Lu family to rely on Chen Fang.
He originally wanted to ask his son from another place to run the business, but he still wanted to rely on Chen Fang and put it on the right track before handing it over to his son. Now it seems that he made the right decision.
"Okay, then I'll have someone call a business conference in the name of Lu Gong tomorrow, how about that?"
Lu Gong nodded and agreed, saying that this was a major event that would help their Lu family take off.
After saying goodbye to Lu Gong, Chen Fang slowly came to Lu Zhi's room. At this moment, she was watching a variety show in the room. Women's favorite is makeup videos.
"Brother Chen Fang, why did you come in directly?" She was a little scared when she saw Chen Fang's smirk, and didn't know what he was trying to do.
"Why, are you afraid that I'll come in?"
"No, this is a girl's boudoir, how can you barge in?"
Lu Zhi said shyly that although she was carefree, girls of that era were relatively pure at heart, yes, pure.
"Oh, you are watching a beauty show." Chen Fang laughed and changed the subject.
"Brother Chen Fang, is what's above real? Can a woman really be so beautiful after putting on makeup?" Lu Zhi was obviously tempted and envied the beauty products inside. She also wanted to try them.
"Do you want the lipstick, eye shadow, foundation, etc.?"
After watching for so long, Lu Zhi naturally knew what Chen Fang was talking about.
"Brother Chen Fang, you have some, please give me some. My good husband." Now Lu Zhi's mouth was as sweet as honey.
"Okay, I have them all! But you have to agree to one condition."
"What conditions?"
"That's it..., okay?" Chen Fang said with a harmless look on his face.
Lu Zhi's face turned red instantly. How could this be possible? But thinking that she would be getting married to Chen Fang soon, she nodded and agreed with a red face. After all, she would be Chen Fang's person in the future.
. . . . . .
Half an hour later, Lu Zhi felt nauseous and quickly pushed Chen Fang away, ran to the side and vomited.
"You're lying. It's not delicious at all."
But she was still somewhat happy in her heart, thinking that her good brother would not leave her.
Chen Fang was not embarrassed. You believe this. Girl, you are still too young.
"Zhi'er, wait a minute. I'll go back and get it for you. I promise to dress you up beautifully." Chen Fang took the opportunity to escape. He was afraid that Lu Zhi would settle the score with him later. She was not a fool and would soon find out that Chen Fang was lying to her.
Chen Fang, who had been released once, felt refreshed. This ancient girl was different.
Here he met Lu Su again. The latter was a little nervous. She wanted to say something to Chen Fang, but she didn't dare to.
"Miss Lu Su, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Mr. Chen..." Lu Su was interrupted by Chen Fang before she could finish her words.
"Why call me Master Chen? I'm going to marry your sister, so call me brother-in-law."
"Sister...Brother-in-law. Can you lend me that tablet?" Lu Su said with a red face. She was really bored staying at home, which was a common problem in ancient society.
Many girls don’t have any activities at home at all, at most, it’s just like Ci Ci Xiu. In the past, she had her sister to accompany her, but now her sister is either hanging out with Chen Fang or playing with her tablet every day.
Now Lu Su is a lonely person, so she came with a blushing face to borrow a tablet.
