Chapter 424 The silver belongs to you, the fame belongs to me

"This is the first time I made it. The quality is average. Usually, Xiaojin and Ziluo can be used, and they are enough. The cost is only three hundred yuan, which is much cheaper than the ink bought in the county." The most expensive piece in the county The waiting ink costs more than one tael of silver.

Otherwise, reading is expensive, pens, inks, papers and inkstones are all expensive, and ink and paper are short-term consumables, and you need to buy them multiple times after using them for a period of time.

Now that Chu Heng can make brushes, and now add ink, the cost of studying for the two children has to be saved a lot.

For a family to develop, it has to increase income while reducing expenditure.

The current situation is very good.

"Let me take a look." Chu Heng held the ink block for a while and then slowly ground it. After the ink came out, he used a new writing brush, dipped it in the ink, and wrote the huge "" on the paper. Be cautious in your words and deeds' four words.

Blowing off the ink on the paper, Chu Heng looked at the black and bright words, and a flash of interest flashed in his eyes.

"Ayu, very capable."

Hearing this praise, Ye Muyu was busy humiliating herself. This was not something she thought up, and it was just taking advantage of the ancients.

"It's also Mr. Xu's idea. If no one has made this oily ink, I don't know how to do it."

“Maybe it’s because I didn’t make it well, so it’s not very delicate, there are some faults, and the taste is a bit stronger. I continued to play, and tried to make ink that would not have a taste even if I didn’t add spices.”

Chu Heng nodded, took the paper, and encouraged him: "I believe you will make it. Just tell Mr. Xu about this ink stick, and I'm afraid he won't believe that you did it."

"I've thought about it a long time ago. If you tell the outside world that you did it, I'll just learn from you." Ye Muyu doesn't want to be famous, she is a married woman, no matter how famous she is, she still needs to rely on Chu Heng.

If Chu Heng is not good enough, other people will look down on her, even, knowing that she can make ink, they will be greedy instead.

With such a reputation, it won't bring much benefit to life, but it will cause trouble, so she naturally doesn't want to bear it.

On the other hand, Chu Heng is originally a scholar. If he can make ink, with the development of lampblack ink, Chu Heng's name will be famous forever. What's more, because of this fame, anyone who is favored by a high-ranking official will have a smooth official career. Some.

Ye Muyu knew that Chu Heng treated her well, so she was naturally willing to treat him well.

"How about this?" Ye Muyu seriously asked for his opinion.

Chu Heng was stunned for a moment, then understood what Ye Muyu meant, and he hummed: "The money belongs to you, and the fame belongs to me."

"Okay." Ye Muyu smiled very nicely, her eyes were curved, shining like fireworks.

The corner of Chu Heng's mouth curled up into a slight smile. Seeing her happy, he was also in a good mood.

Thinking of the news he received this afternoon, he curled his fingers slightly, obviously thinking about something.

Outside.

Mr. Hu waited for quite a while, but seeing that the food was getting cold, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and knock on the door to remind the two of them.

Ye Muyu looked back, but didn't notice Chu Heng's fleeting mood change.

"Let's go, we're going to eat, we can talk about anything after we finish eating." Ye Muyu said.

Chu Heng hummed, and followed Ye Muyu into the main room.

Wait until dinner is finished.

It was completely dark.

Ye Muyu carried the wooden box containing the money back to the east wing, and kept accounts on it.

After sorting it out, there are a total of 1,152 taels and more than 300 copper plates.

This sum of money instantly made Ye Muyu understand that Chu Heng's running business is indeed very profitable.
