Chapter 220 Everyone is crazy
Movable type printing, what is this?
The man felt that he had been wronged: "I don't even know what movable type printing is! Don't slander people out of thin air!"
The person who spoke did not care about being soaked in the lake water. He was panting and his fingers were trembling: " You! You are such a scammer! Didn’t you take a good look at what that gift is before you asked Bi Sheng to give it to you? "
"It’s just a printing technique, what do I think it does? What can you do if you have this free time?”
Others also began to smooth things over: "Brother Zhuge, don't be angry. It's just a printing technique. I gave it to Gu Nanxi. Brother Qiming is right. We all have so many things to do, how can we have time to see this printing technique!" "
The man who was called Brother Zhuge blew his beard and stared: "You You said it lightly, I wonder if you can still sit still when you know what Qiming has sent out!"
"What is this movable type printing technology?"
Zhuge's face looked like he had eaten shit, and when he looked at Qi Ming, he wanted to scratch him alive.
“Although Bi Sheng is a small person, he pounded the soil into clay embryos, and then used a carving knife to carve out positive characters to make clay movable type. When printing was needed, he only needed to cut these small movable types Just arrange the names.”
Everyone gasped.
The current woodblock printing method is time-consuming, laborious and costly. Even if a character can only be used three or two times, it is still very cheap!
The key is that this job is extremely efficient!
Others have to engrave a plate for every page they print, but he only needs to arrange them neatly!
People who have a printing shop at home can’t sit still: “Brother Zhuge, how do you know about this?”
Zhuge Liang sneered: "Everyone in Kyoto knows! Gu Nanxi is recruiting workers with great fanfare and is preparing to open a printing factory!"
After all, those present were not stupid people, and they quickly thought of other aspects.
"In this way, wouldn't Baichuan Academy be able to expand its enrollment again?! Originally, due to the restriction of the "May 3rd", which could not be printed on a large scale, the number of people in the imperial examination assault class was very small. Once there was movable type printing, there would be You can’t print as many copies as you want!”
"If Gu Nanxi is more vicious and spreads the secrets on a large scale in Dazhou, and other candidates don't follow her lead, the imperial examination will become more and more difficult!"
Everyone just thinks it's a scalp. It's numb, I think the imperial examination will be even worse in the future!
Those cultural relics and ancient books that are regarded as treasures by various families, as long as Gu Nanxi is willing, everyone can have a copy in an instant.
Reducing printing costs and improving efficiency means that the cost of acquiring knowledge is reduced and the radiation surface is expanded.
On this day, maybe things will really change!
Brother Qiming's face turned pale. Faced with everyone's suspicious looks, he swore to the sky: "I'm really not Gu Nanxi's! If I was an undercover agent, why didn't I secretly give it to her?"
< br>"Bi Sheng is an employee of your bookstore, and there are traces of everything. If you secretly give it to him, it will only arouse everyone's suspicion, so you deliberately cheat like this!"
Brother Qiming couldn't argue, and said with a mournful face: "How did I know this? The shopkeeper only said that Bi Sheng loved playing with mud, and he didn't say that he invented movable type printing!"
In the Pavilion in the Heart of the Lake , there was endless debate, and the emergence of movable type printing caused an earthquake in Kyoto from top to bottom.
Ordinary people are naturally happy to see the price of books drop. A set of four books and five classics cannot be bought for less than ten taels of silver.
If Mrs. Yongchang Hou’s printing factory starts operations on a large scale, according to her temperament, she can’t lower the price by half? !
In the Fuquan Teahouse, the tea guests were talking with saliva, and it seemed that they could foresee a future in which everyone could speak in perfect detail!
"As expected of Mrs. Yongchang Hou, even Lu Ban came to congratulate her on her birthday!" "Hey, didn't you say that Bi Sheng was just a young apprentice who came to Kyoto from a bookstore in Hangzhou?"
"What do you know? This Bi Sheng must have been inspired by Lu Ban to create movable type printing. Didn't you listen to what he said? There is someone behind him!"
"I am the same way. Sleep Yes, even I can see the huge benefits and prospects brought by movable type printing. Even if I don't set up a factory and hand over the matter to the court, who can get a title like this? Are you giving things away for nothing? "
"Only gods don't care about these fame, only gods will give them away!"
"Oh, it's lucky that Mrs. Yongchang Hou was born in our Zhou Dynasty. If this happened to the north, I don't dare to think about it!"
The boss of the bookstore, the masters and students of the academy are also very fond of this printing house. expect.
There is no shortage of geniuses in the world, but there are many geniuses who are unable to succeed due to family background and knowledge.
As long as they are provided with a platform and some resources, maybe even among the common people there will be a Yan Shu who wrote poems at the age of five and became a prime minister at a young age!
In the Yongchang Hou Mansion, everyone also expressed their admiration for Gu Nanxi frequently.
Lumei is even more considerate.
"Oh, master, please sit down quickly. How can I trouble you to do this?"
Gu Nanxi had to put down the handkerchief in her hand and let the green plum wet the handkerchief. She was wiping her fingers as if wiping precious and fragile porcelain.
If Izukuo had not had to do it herself, Lumei would have even had to go for her!
"Lu Mei, your master is not lazy enough yet."
Lu Mei glanced at Gu Nanxi disapprovingly: "Master, you have already suffered a big sin just once in this world! How can I bother you to do such a trivial matter yourself!"
Gu Nan Xi's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Lu Mei knew that she was the book wearer?
Gu Nanxi looked at Lu Mei's expression and saw that there was only fanatical admiration on her face, and there was no scruple or fear, so she was slightly relieved.
I felt sour in my heart immediately, but no, there is no mobile phone, no computer, no Internet here. I either eat or sleep every day, and occasionally open the door to receive a gift.
What a sin!
Lu Mei was still nagging: "The matter of the printing factory has been taken over by the eldest man and the young lady. They said, don't worry, they will definitely handle this matter properly!"
Raise a child for a thousand days, use the child for a while.
No, the three children have become successful and finally know how to do things!
Gu Nanxi wrote in big words and enjoyed Lumei’s attentive service with peace of mind.
Little did she know that the mother system code in her mind was almost all messed up.
The Loving Mother System regretted for the ten thousandth time, why did it bind Gu Nanxi? !
Look, Bi Sheng, who was supposed to die tragically in Hangzhou Academy, suddenly became a guest of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion!
Although it has been invented but has not been widely promoted, movable type printing will become a big success in Kyoto within a month!
The corn kernels that were supposed to be cooked and eaten in the small tent are now hidden in Gu Nanxi's private treasury!
Crazy, this Zhou Dynasty is really going crazy!
