"Huh?" Chu Zhuang looked at Lin Huai in surprise and asked, "You mean, Xiaomu won't live with you?" "

"Father?!" Lin Xiaomu also looked at Lin Huai with puzzlement and shock, not understanding why he said that.

Lin Huai touched the top of Lin Xiaomu's hair and smiled, then looked at Chu Zhuang and said: Mr. Chu, I live here for work, let Xiaomu stay with Xiaoye and the others, they are about the same age, not only can they be together Play and learn together. "

Although it is also possible to let Lin Xiaomu study with him after the academy is completed, Lin Huai often sees Lin Xiaomu looking at Xiaoye and the others with envious eyes during this time, obviously eager to play with them.

The book printing workshop is not only some distance away from the Chu residence, but also very far from the academy opened by Chu Zhuang. Instead of letting Lin Xiaomu follow him, it is better to let him be with Xiao Ye and the others earlier.

Firstly, Lin Xiaomu could get used to getting along with peers in advance, and secondly, Lin Xiaomu could learn from Chu Zhuang in advance.

Seeing Lin Huai's expression, Chu Zhuang understood his good intentions for Lin Xiaomu as a father, nodded and agreed: "Well, yes, then let Xiaomu live with Xiaoye and the others."

"I don't want to! I want to be with my father! I don't want to be separated from my father!" Lin Xiaomu held Lin Huai's hand tightly, with tears of fear in his eyes, he shook his head and loudly refused.

He was afraid that Lin Huai would abandon him.

"Silly boy!" Chu Zhuang patted Lin Xiaomu's shoulder with a smile and comforted him, "It's not that you are not allowed to meet your father, but when the academy is on holiday, or your father is free, can't we meet again? "

This is equivalent to letting Lin Xiaomu study in a boarding school. Although he can't go home on weekdays, he can go back as long as it is a holiday.

"That's right, this is in the suburbs. If you want to study in the academy in the future, you must live in the academy. Now it's just a few months in advance to let you adapt to life in the academy." Lin Huai also explained.

"Really?" Lin Xiaomu asked sobbing, wiping away tears.

"Of course it's true!"

Yunmengxi said with a smile on the side: How could father and Chu Zhuang lie to you? ! "

Lin Xiaomu thought for a while, and felt that what Yunmengxi said made sense, he blushed, obviously he would start to feel embarrassed about the tears just now.

Everyone looked at each other and smiled, and did not laugh at this little boy with a very strong self-esteem.

"Then it's settled. Master Lin, you will live here. Xiao Mu will go back with me. I will arrange for him to sleep in a room with Guo Wen and Guo Wu, and let him study with me in the future." Chu Zhuang looked Looking at Lin Huai and said.

"Thank you, Mr. Chu." Lin Huai looked at Chu Zhuang gratefully, and thanked him.

Chuzhuang treated him very well, with good wages and benefits, and especially able to solve the problem of children's schooling. Such a boss is definitely the only one in Chuzhuang in this era.

Lin Huai had wandered outside with Lin Xiaomu for too long and met too many people. Now that he saw such a good boss as Chu Zhuang, he naturally cherished it very much.

He has no other skills, he can only hand over all his skills to Chu Zhuang in order to repay Chu Zhuang's kindness and appreciation for him.

Chu Zhuang waved his hand and didn't care too much about it. For an excellent and hard-working employee like Lin Huai, he deserves all the treatment

"I'll show you the room."

Chu Zhuang arranged for Lin Huai the room that Lin Dan lived in before. As for the three apprentices, they still lived in the previous room.

"The sheets, the humiliation, and your luggage, tomorrow/I will have Dali deliver them, and tell Dali what else is missing, or ask the three apprentices to run errands to help you buy them." Chu Zhuang looked at Lin Huai and said.

"There is no shortage. Mr. Chu has helped to buy all the daily necessities before, so just bring them here." Lin Huai hurriedly

Said.

Since the owner Lin Dan lives in this room, it is naturally the best. Although it is not luxurious, it is also very clean and tidy. It can be regarded as the best room Lin Huai has ever lived in.

"Father, this place is so big!"

Lin Xiaomu knew that this was the room where Lin Huai would live in the future, so he looked around curiously.

Chu Zhuang looked at Yunmengxi and said, "Mengxi, Xiaomu is here for the first time, you can take him out to have a look around."

Chu Zhuang then asked Lin Huai to discuss the matter of printing, and it was inconvenient for Lin Xiaomu to stay here.

Yunmengxi understood, nodded, and waved to Lin Xiaomu: "Xiaomu, I'll take you out to play!"

"Okay!" Lin Xiaomu happily followed Yunmengxi out.

Lin Huai watched the two go out, and looked at Chu Zhuang seriously. Chu Zhuang sent Lin Xiaomu away because he must have something important to tell him.

"I have a new printing technology here."

Chu Zhuang took out the previously written paper from his pocket and handed it to Lin Huai, explaining to him: "This printing technology is different from the current printing technology, it is more convenient and convenient."

Lin Huai took the paper and looked at it seriously. He simply recognized a few words, and after listening to Chu Zhuang's explanation, he understood the content on the paper.

"Mr. Chu, according to the method above, as long as this character is carved, it can be used repeatedly in the future!" Lin Huai immediately discovered the most critical difference in the printing technique.

"En." Chu Zhuang nodded slightly, looked at Lin Huai and asked, "Can you do it?"

"Well, yes!" Lin Huai nodded affirmatively. The manufacturing method written by Chu Zhuang is very detailed. If he can't even do this, then he is not worthy of such good treatment from Chu Zhuang.

"Brass can actually be used for the mold, but copper is too expensive, and the law does not allow it, so it can only be replaced by mixing lead with other metals." Chu Zhuang warned: "This lead is poisonous. It is better to wear a mask and gloves at this time, so as not to hurt the body."

Brass is a currency in circulation, and it is okay to melt and cast a small amount, but melting and casting a large amount is not only expensive, but also the law does not allow it, so Chu Zhuang chose the printing method of type.

Mixing lead with other metals is not only cheap but also durable. The only disadvantage is that it is poisonous, so Chu Zhuang specially reminded Lin Huai of this.

"I see, Mr. Chu, I will pay attention." Lin Huai nodded and agreed. Since Chu Zhuang specifically instructed him, he certainly would not ignore it.

"Thank you." Chu Zhuang patted Lin Huai's shoulder and said.

Now Lin Huai has a lot of things in his hands, wheelchairs, bicycles, and now this book printing shop, Chu Zhuang really treats him as three people.

But fortunately, there are three apprentices who can help now, so some chores and simple tasks can be entrusted to them, and Lin Huai can also relax.

"No hard work! This is what I should do!" Lin Huai said quickly.

Chu Zhuang arranged things for him, indicating that he valued him, and he didn't mind keeping himself busy at all. On the contrary, if Chu Zhuang didn't arrange things for him, he would be worried, worried whether Chu Zhuang didn't need him anymore, would he will drive him away.

The two briefly discussed the issue of type printing. Chu Zhuang glanced at the three people outside and reminded: "The three of them were apprentices in the printing shop before, and they just followed me now. Please help me read more. Hold on."

Lin Huai glanced at the printing technique in his hand, understood it in his heart, and immediately said: "Master Chu, don't worry, I will do the key formula of this printing technique myself, and I won't let them interfere."

Even if these people know the method of movable type printing, if they can't find the specific formula of the mold, they can't make a mold that can be used repeatedly.

If the mold is made of wood, it is too easy to break, and it cannot be used repeatedly. If it is printed with movable type, it will be more troublesome than woodblock printing.

However, the cost of using copper is too high. With so many Chinese characters, I am afraid that the other party will go bankrupt before they are made, and the law does not allow it.

Iron is easy to rust, and other materials also have various disadvantages.

So as long as they control the formula of the mold in their hands, even if others know this technology, they cannot easily imitate the past.

"Well, I'll ask Master Lin to watch over here." Seeing that Lin Huai understood what he meant, Chu Zhuang nodded reassuringly.

"Young Master Chu, don't say that, this is what I should do." Lin Huai said quickly.

"I will move the books into the academy after the academy is built. As for other things, you can deal with them according to your needs. If you don't need them, you can deal with them directly." Chu Zhuang took Lin Huai around the printing workshop, letting He got the general picture.

"Well, yes, I see." Lin Huai took a look just now and basically knew what should be dealt with and what should be kept.

"Today is too late, let's go back first, tomorrow/I will ask Xiao Wu to bring you over, and let Xiao Wu accompany you to buy the materials that need to be purchased."

Chu Zhuang looked at the sky, but he didn't stay any longer, and took his people back first.

"Xiao Mu, come here too, come to the study with me for class."

After dinner and rest for a while, Chu Zhuang was going to teach Guo Wen and others, but this time he brought Lin Xiaomu with him.

"Tomorrow, Xiaomu's father is going to the printing shop, and Xiaomu will sleep with the three of you. You should get along well, understand?" Chu Zhuang said, looking at Guo Wen, Guo Wu and Xiao Ye.

Lin Xiaomu looked at them nervously. Although he had known them before, he still couldn't help worrying that they would not accept him.

"Brother Chu, we know!" The three immediately responded.

"I don't snore or grind my teeth when I sleep!" Lin Xiaomu thought for a while and said.

"Hee hee! As long as you don't wet the bed, we don't mind anything else!" Ono patted Lin Xiaomu's shoulder and said with a smile.

"I'm already an older child, so I won't wet the bed!" Lin Xiaomu said loudly.
