Li Zexuan spent an entire night carving the mother version of the banknote from nightfall to sunrise the next day. If it weren't for his strong inner strength, he wouldn't have been able to hold on for such a long time. Moreover, it would have been impossible for him to finish carving the mother version of the banknote in just one night.
Even so, when he finished carving the last stroke, he couldn't help but feel dizzy and exhausted.
Li Zexuan called Pang Feiji over and asked him to deliver the mother version of the banknote to the workshop personally. After that, he quickly went to bed. He really couldn't take it anymore!
Logically speaking, this was his first time carving the mother version of a banknote. In his previous life, he didn't have the opportunity, the conditions, the ability, and even the courage. In this life, he was going to personally design the first banknote for Tang Dynasty. It would be a lie to say that he wasn't excited.
It was because of this excitement that he worked overtime last night to carve the mother version of the banknote. Of course, it was also because of Liu Yidao's hard work. If it weren't for Liu Yidao drawing the pattern of the banknote on the soft steel plate, Li Zexuan wouldn't have been able to carve the mother version of the banknote in such a short time even if he had the Wind Chasing Sword that could cut through iron like mud.
In the workshop, when Faubert received the mother version of the banknote from Pang Feiji, he couldn't help but be shocked. Obviously, he didn't expect Li Zexuan to work so hard and stay up all night to carve the mother version of the banknote. From this detail, Faubert also understood how important Li Zexuan was to this matter. Therefore, he suddenly felt a sense of urgency in his heart.
"Xiaosi, Xiaosi!"
Faubert carefully kept the mother version of the banknote and shouted towards the outside of the house.
"Hey! Manager Fu, you're here! "
Song Xiaosi quickly ran in from outside the house and bowed.
Faubert asked, "Xiaosi, is the water pattern roller done at the steel mill?"
Regarding the water pattern paper that Li Zexuan had told him about yesterday, he had already sent someone to buy the materials. Now, he only lacked the water pattern roller to modify the paper machine.
This step was the most crucial step in the production of the water pattern paper!
"Manager Fu, please wait a moment. I'll go take a look now!"
Song Xiaosi responded and quickly ran out.
When Liu Yidao learned that Li Zexuan had sent the soft steel master plate to the workshop this morning, he was both shocked and stressed. That was because Li Zexuan, a layman who knew nothing about engraving, could engrave such a large piece of soft steel master plate with so many complicated patterns in just one night. As an old guy who had been engraving for decades, if he was too slow, how could he face Li Zexuan in the future?
It just so happened that he had a stand-mounted magnifying glass in his house. The condition was much better than before, and there was no reason for him to slow Li Zexuan down!
Therefore, Liu Yidao immediately began his closed-door training and began to carve the anti-counterfeit seal that Li Zexuan asked him to carve.
…
On Yunshan Mountain.
Li Zexuan slept all the way until evening. Around 5 pm, he slowly woke up from his sleep. He felt a pain in his head (This was the aftereffect of staying up late. Last night, he was not only mentally exhausted, but also physically exhausted). He couldn't help but rub his temples. After a long time, he finally felt a little better.
"Husband, you're finally awake! Are you hungry? I've made some congee with pork and century egg. Have some to fill your stomach! "
Han Yuxi's voice came faintly. Li Zexuan heard it and nodded subconsciously, "Yes, yes! Thank you, wife! "
At this moment, his stomach was indeed empty.
After a while, Han Yuxi brought a bowl of congee with pork and century egg. Li Zexuan tested it slightly. It wasn't hot and the temperature was just right. Han Yuxi must have kept the congee warm in the pot and waited for him to wake up so that she could bring it to him directly.
Thinking of this, Li Zexuan couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. In terms of thoughtfulness, his wife was the most considerate!
Li Zexuan looked at Han Yuxi gratefully. The husband and wife looked at each other and smiled tacitly. At this time, Li Zexuan asked while eating, "Wife, is there any news from the workshop today?"
Han Yuxi glanced at Li Zexuan and said faintly, "Husband, you want to ask about Master Liu, right? Don't rush them too much. I heard that in order to help you carve the seal, Master Liu didn't leave the house for the whole day! If you rush them again, Master Liu will be exhausted! Even if it's urgent, it doesn't have to be in a hurry for one or two days! "
"Uh …! Wife, you're right! "
Li Zexuan touched his nose embarrassedly. After listening to Han Yuxi's words, why did he feel that he had become an evil capitalist who desperately exploited his employees?
"And you, husband, I've heard you persuade me before that staying up late is not good for your health. But why did you stay up so long last night? Our family doesn't lack anything now. Husband, why do you have to be so anxious to do things? "
Han Yuxi sighed faintly again.
Li Zexuan was even more speechless at this time. Han Yuxi's words were reasonable, and he couldn't find a reason to refute them.
In fact, his habit of staying up late when something happened was completely in his nature. In the three years of his graduate studies in his previous life, because of the research tasks assigned by the teachers above, he didn't know how many nights he had stayed up late. Especially when it was close to graduation and rushing to finish his thesis, he would stay up late almost every two or three days. That was simply putting his life on the line!
This was the persistence of an engineering student. It was also the most admirable thing about the scientists who struggled on the frontlines in his previous life!
In this life, Li Zexuan vowed to let the scientific researchers enjoy the best treatment. His original intention of founding Yanhuang College was also for this.
"Ahem! Good, good, good! My wife is right. Your husband will not stay up late in the future! "
The strange thing was that after Han Yuxi rambled on for so long, Li Zexuan didn't feel annoyed at all. Instead, he felt a little warm in his heart. Perhaps this was the unique advantage of a beautiful woman when it came to preaching!
… … …
The next day.
Li Zexuan saw that there was still no news from the workshop. In order not to pressure Faubert and Liu Yidao, he didn't go over.
Thinking of some things that Lantian County's County Magistrate He told him a few days ago, Li Zexuan wanted to personally go to Lantian County to take a look.
But he suddenly remembered that his confinement period wasn't over yet, so he could only give up on it.
Since he couldn't leave Yunshan, Li Zexuan could only stay in the study room to plan his Marquis' Mansion in Lantian County. This was the true Marquis' Mansion of Yong 'an. After all, it was built on his fief in the name of the government.
Last year, he had planned to wait until the new year to expand the side courtyard on Yunshan. Now, it seemed that there was no need to expand the side courtyard. When the Marquis' Mansion was built, no matter how many people there were in his family, the Marquis' Mansion would be able to accommodate them.
Therefore, the future Marquis' Mansion must be big.
Li Zexuan planned to build his Marquis' Mansion into a luxurious mansion with an ancient manor as its foundation, but with modern style interior facilities. After all, as a Marquis' Mansion, its appearance should be more formal. Therefore, he didn't use the style of the Academy's high-rise buildings, but used the style of the Tang Dynasty's manor!
As the manor's blueprints flashed through his mind, the content on the Xuan paper on the table gradually became richer.
