Chapter 286 Taking the initiative to bite the hook

The Lu family arranged a three-story house for Master Zhan and his apprentices. This house is not far from the house where Lv Mingzhi studies papermaking. It takes a short walk to get there.

The two people that Master Zhan picked up on the road, Jiang Yizhou and Chen Yue, were also arranged to live in. Anyway, this house is quite big. There are still empty rooms for them to live in.

After a night's rest, Master Zhan and his apprentices got up and had breakfast and decided to take a walk to Lv Mingzhi's house.

There, Master Zhan and his apprentices saw two kinds of paper, jute paper and snow-glossy paper. Now these two kinds of paper are ready to be put into mass production.

Scholars love paper. They touched it and felt that the quality of these two kinds of paper was not worse than the common yellow paper and silver-glossy paper.

"Did you develop these two kinds of paper recently?"

"Yes, but the formula was bought for me by my second sister."

Zhou Congguang: "Your second sister is really nice."

"Mingzhi, you are good." Zhan Ruoshui praised.

Wei Wenqian also said, "Yes, Mingzhi, even if your second sister bought you a recipe, it is only a rough recipe, but it is not easy to make a real thing from the recipe." This process requires strong self-control and execution. It is not easy for the junior brother to make it.

Lv Mingzhi was a little embarrassed by the praise, "Master, two senior brothers, you are too flattering. When I came here, someone took care of my food, clothing, housing and transportation. I am only responsible for continuous experiments. As for the materials for the experiments, if I say anything, someone will send it to me. It is not hard."

"I am taken care of everything here. I can't even do some work to change my mind. I can only go out for a walk every time I am tired."

The two senior brothers were very envious when they heard this. They also want such a life. They don't have to worry about anything, just concentrate on fiddling with their own things.

They stayed in Lv Mingzhi's yard for a day and deeply understood what it means to open your mouth for food and stretch out your hand for clothes. If you need anything, just tell someone and someone will get it. Junior Brother Lu is so happy to be here.

In the evening, Zhou Congguang and Wei Wenqian whispered to each other for a while.

After whispering, Zhou Congguang went to find Lu Mingzhi.

"Senior Brother Zhou, is there anything?" Lu Mingzhi asked.

Zhou Congguang was a little embarrassed to speak, and Wei Wenqian gave him an encouraging look.

So Zhou Congguang plucked up the courage to say, "Junior Brother, do you know the thing I studied before?"

Lu Mingzhi nodded. In fact, Senior Brother Zhou had a lot of things to do, and he really didn't know which one he was talking about, but nodding was right.

"Senior Brother, you are just a little bit away from success."

"Really? Then congratulations to Senior Brother Zhou."

"What are you congratulating? If you want to continue the experiment later, you need that, you know." Zhou Congguang made a money gesture.

"Didn't you ask the teacher to support you?" Lu Mingzhi asked in a low voice.

"The master is very cold and heartless. He told me not to ask him. I begged him, but he refused. He said it was useless for me to call him father." Zhou Congguang felt wronged.

Lv Mingzhi looked at him sympathetically. It was pitiful. It was really pitiful.

Zhou Congguang also felt that he was too pitiful. He just wanted to get something out. Why not satisfy him?

Master Zhan turned his head to one side, as if he was dazzled by the flowers. He pretended not to hear the disciples' murmurs. He was almost hollowed out. He finally recovered some blood, and he was determined not to let his disciples waste it.

Zhou Congguang and him put their arms around each other, "Let's not talk about the master. Little junior brother, when you were in the academy before, was the senior brother good to you?"

Lv Mingzhi nodded. No matter whether he was really good to him before, he just nodded.

"Now, Senior Brother wants you to do me a favor."

"What favor? Senior Brother, please tell me. I will definitely help you if I can."

"Senior Brother wants to ask you something."

"Go ahead."

"It's like this. Do you think if Senior Brother goes to talk to your second sister and asks her to help me get that thing, will she be willing?"

Hearing this question, Lv Mingzhi looked strange. His second sister hadn't even put down the hook or bait yet. At most, she had just made a nest, but Senior Brother Zhou was so anxious to hook him up?

If he lived in the future, he would know a word called two-way rush.

At this time, Lv Mingzhi only sighed in his heart that his second sister was so lucky.

"Senior Brother Zhou, I can make an appointment for you. You can ask her in person."

"Okay." Zhou Congguang thought it was not a big problem.

Junior Brother's second sister was generous and generous.

As soon as they moved into the yard, all the daily necessities were delivered. New wooden barrels, foot basins, thin bedding, rattan mats, etc., very thoughtful.

The Cheng Yi that was said to be given before was also delivered last night, a total of one thousand taels. She is really generous and considerate. She is not like those people who pretend to be stupid when they have to fulfill their promises and give benefits.

The teacher received the silver and laughed so hard that his beard trembled. Even the teacher who rarely praised people said that the Lu family was kind.

Zhan Ruoshui heard their words, but he did not stop them.

The second sister of the little apprentice, Lu Songli, didn't talk much, but she left a good impression on him.

They all knew about Lu Songli's identity. She was the sixth wife of the Qin family and was exiled to Liaodong County with her husband's family.

It was not surprising to see her in the county governor's mansion yesterday. Her father was sent here, and he was still the county governor here. It was normal to have some freedom of power.

But it was wrong for her to have so much silver at her disposal.

Lu Mingzhi had to mention the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce to him in a subtle way.

This was also what his second sister asked him to say. His second sister's original words were that if his wife asked, just tell him, but if he didn't ask, there was no need to tell.

Now that he has figured out where the money came from, Zhan Ruoshui doesn't want to think too much about other things. At least now the second sister, the young apprentice, doesn't see anything wrong with it.

When Lu Songli learned that Zhou Congguang and others wanted to meet her through Lu Mingzhi, she took some time to meet them.

After the meeting and greetings, Lu Songli went straight to the topic.

"Senior Brother Zhou, if you have any needs or difficulties, just say, you are Mingzhi's senior brother, and I will definitely help." Lu Songli encouraged him with a smile on her face, looking very pleasant.

Zhou Congguang was embarrassed. When they arrived in Liaodong County, their food and accommodation were paid for by others. Before the people left, they gave them the round trip Cheng Yi. Now he still wants to swindle other people's money, and his conscience feels a little painful just thinking about it.

"Senior Brother Zhou, since Mrs. Qin Liu has said so, just say it directly." After Wei Wenqian finished speaking, he mouthed to him, thinking about your experiment.

Zhou Congguang knew that his experiment was really just a step away, so he said with a sudden thought, "Mrs. Qin Liu, this is it..." He began to introduce what he wanted to do.

Lu Songli listened carefully. Isn't this the principle of the dryer?

It’s good to bring your own projects.

Lu Songli glanced at Zhan Ruoshui and others, wondering if they also had their own projects?

"Mrs. Qin Liu, don't worry. I'm very sure this time. I'll succeed soon. It won't cost a lot of money. Can you - buy some materials for me." Zhou Congguang said the next words very quietly.

But Lu Songli immediately agreed, "Okay!"

Her frankness and ease of talking shocked Zhou Congguang, master and apprentice, and they agreed without even asking how much it would cost. No requirements?

Only Lu Mingzhi on the side had expected it and was not surprised.

Lu Songli immediately got into the situation and arranged, "Can your test site be also arranged in the four-entry courtyard in the North District? It will be arranged in the courtyard next to Mingzhi. I will arrange a steward for you to work with Mingzhi's courtyard. Just like Manager Yao, he will be responsible for all your needs. If you want to buy something for testing later, just ask him and he will buy it for you as soon as possible. "

"Oh, okay, everything is fine, you can arrange it." Zhou Congguang was completely dizzy. Is this it?

"Is there anything going on between Master Zhan and Senior Brother Wei?"

Master Zhan shook his head hesitantly.

The same goes for Wei Wenqian. He is more cautious and wants to see more before talking.

"Mrs. Qin Liu, I will definitely get it done soon and won't let you waste too much money." Zhou Congguang said excitedly.

Lu Songli likes people like Zhou Congguang. Not only can they draw cakes for themselves, but they can also draw cakes for the boss. There is no need for the boss to draw cakes for him or give him blood.

"I believe in you, work hard! Just buy the materials you need to buy, don't be afraid of spending money."

Zhou Congguang was extremely moved. This was the first time someone didn't dislike him for spending too much money when he was messing around. He swore in his heart that from now on, his junior brother and his second sister would be his biological sisters!
