"It's hard to believe. "After a period www.biquge.info of silence, Fu Nian's face finally returned to calm, but he was still full of doubts about the words in Ye Wuji's mouth, although intellectually, Fu Nian didn't think that Ye Wuji was lying, but Fu Nian couldn't figure out how Ye Wuji re-copied hundreds of thousands of classics from Little Sage Village in just two years.

The library of Xiaoshengxian Village has hundreds of thousands of classics, but it is the accumulation of Confucianism for hundreds of years.

In this era, if you want to copy a book, there is only one way to copy it, Fu Nian first promised Fusu to re-copy the books in the library building with the small seal of Daqin, which actually takes a long time to do.

This is still the small sage village has a large number of readers, with a fixed copyist, can do it, for other forces, want to copy the library, it is simply impossible.

In bamboo slips, the problem is copied, in terms of the 5,000 words of the Tao Te Ching, a person can only write 1,000 words a day at most, which is still fast, and the slow may be hundreds, this is not writing on paper, writing on bamboo slips is very tiring.

And it has to be constantly reviewed, there are many fake words in later generations, isn't it because the person who copied the book accidentally copied the wrong word.

Therefore, the books of this era are very elite and refined, and those that can be expressed in one word are absolutely not used in two words.

"Didn't Mr. Fu Nian notice that the price of bamboo slips has dropped very much recently?" Ye Wuji suddenly said something unrelated.

"Not bad. Although Fu Nian didn't understand the meaning of Ye Wuji's words, he still nodded in agreement.

As the head of Confucianism, of course, you have to worry about all things in Confucianism, Xiaoshengxian Zhuang is a big customer who consumes bamboo slips, and will purchase a large number of bamboo slips for use every month.

Some of these bamboo slips were used by students, some were used by the library to copy books, and some were consumed by Confucians like Fu Nian.

Although this part of the expenditure is not big for Confucianism, it is not small, although Fu Nian will not interfere in this kind of business, but he still knows the price.

Speaking of Confucianism, the way to make money is really a million profits, not to mention other ways to make money, just selling books and Jane, the profit is more than 100 times.

Except for the top-secret classics of Confucianism, which can only be read by the core figures of Confucianism, the rest of the books in the library will be sold to the public.

Of course, the copies sold were all copied by Confucian disciples, which not only trained Confucian disciples, but also made money, which can be said to be a monopoly business.

The key is that if Confucianism sells money, it will also get the gratitude of the book buyers, and the benefits inside and outside are Confucian.

"Isn't Mr. Fu Nian surprised, the price of bamboo slips has been very stable, why did it suddenly drop so much. Ye Wuji looked at Fu Nian's puzzled expression, and couldn't help but shake his head, this kind of thinking of Confucianism is very good among a small group of people, but if it is expanded to the entire empire, it will be a disaster.

This time, Ye Wuji did not continue to sell Guanzi, even if he did, Fu Nian did not understand.

So Ye Wuji directly continued, "I ordered a large number of bamboo slips to be sold, and almost all the inventory of the entire empire was sold by me. ”

Of course, Ye Wuji didn't have so many bamboo slips in his hands, but when Great Qin was unifying the Central Plains, he found a large number of bamboo slips in the treasury of the other six countries, and the bamboo slips were also one of the strategic reserves of the empire in this era.

After the invention of papermaking, Ye Wuji tentatively asked Ying Zheng to dispose of the confiscated bamboo slips, but he didn't expect Ying Zheng to agree so much, without any hesitation at all.

Some people may wonder why Ye Wuji didn't take it out earlier since he invented papermaking so early, the empire has such a big killing weapon, and it will be much easier to deal with Confucianism.

If you take it out a day earlier, wouldn't more people be able to learn to read and write, but unfortunately things are not that simple.

If paper appeared too early, what to do with bamboo slips, even if it was the original history, papermaking was invented very early, but it took hundreds of years to popularize paper.

Wouldn't it be too wasteful to let so many bamboo slips rot if they were left to rot, so the bamboo slips at this time, because of Ye Wuji's order, have rotted a lot more than in the past.

Tang poems, Song poems, Yuan songs, Ming and Qing novels, ordinary people may be very strange why there is such an arrangement.

In fact, this is related to the popularization of paper, don't you see that with the development of the times, the number of words is developing in more and more directions.

In the Tang Dynasty, paper was very expensive, such paper, who would write a long story on it, just like in the pre-Qin era, a hundred schools of thought contended, but you see which family has a special poetry circulation, is it not able to write, of course not.

At the gathering of the Little Sage Village, there are often people who chant poems against each other, but they are just talking, but they will not write them down, because it is not worth wasting bamboo slips to record.

The reason why novels were popular in the Ming and Qing dynasties was not because paper was cheap and could write a large amount of handwriting.

Just like in this era, although there are novelists, novelists are not on the stage, and the things recorded are very brief.

came out of Ye Wuji, a big family, and wrote Hua Xu quoting so many bamboo slips, isn't it because there are too many bamboo slips that can't be used up, and it's a waste if you don't use it.

"Bamboo briefly eliminated. Ye Wuji took out a bound book from the box again, it was very thin, only about twenty pages, and the title on it was Analects.

The whole text of the Analects is only 10,000 words, and to write it with bamboo slips, at least dozens of bamboo slips are required.

"It is. Fu Nian looked at the things that Ye Wuji handed over, his eyes suddenly lit up, and for the first time, he took the Analects from Ye Wuji's hand regardless of etiquette, and then opened it to watch.

"What is this?" Fu Nian had already memorized the Analects by heart, and could even be said to have memorized them backwards, so Fu Nian quickly finished reading them, and after watching them for the second time, Fu Nian closed the Analects and asked respectfully.

With Fu Nian's intelligence, he knew the meaning of this thing in an instant.

"This is paper, the cost is dozens of times cheaper than the bamboo slip, and the content that can be recorded is hundreds of times that of the bamboo slips, now the small sage village in Xianyang, the content of the library here, all the content of the library building is re-transcribed with paper, and placed in the library there. "For the sake of these hundreds of thousands of Confucian classics, Ye Wuji has worked hard in the past two years.

If it weren't for these books, Ye Wuji wouldn't have stayed in Xiao Shengxian Village for so long, and the Confucian internal strength and mental method would not have attracted him.

"It's not just paper, it's this. Ye Wuji simply placed the box directly in front of Fu Nian, so that Fu Nian could have a glance at the contents of the box.

In fact, the contents of the box are very simple, in addition to the Analects, it is a dictionary, as well as a workbook and a ballpoint pen.

After so many years of hard work, the first edition of the dictionary finally came out, although there are many flaws in the eyes of Ye Wuji, and the dictionary sold in any bookstore in later generations is very different, but in this era, this is already an artifact.

The first few pages of the dictionary are about pinyin, in this era, the era when literacy depends on people to teach, but there is no such convenient thing as pinyin, all words need to be taught.

Of course, there are similar things to the dictionary.,It's called the word source.,You can find the pronunciation of the words you don't know.,But that's not pinyin annotation.,It's replaced by homophones.,It's very troublesome to look up.。

"I believe that with the wisdom of Mr. Fu Nian, you should be able to see what these things are for, don't worry, you can take your time to see, we have time. Ye Wuji said that he didn't care about Fu Nian, and sat on the side and slowly sipped tea.

An hour later, Fu Nian put down the contents of the box, and Fu Nian's face was very complicated at this time, especially the content in the dictionary, which made Fu Nian shocked.

If the things in it are taught, as long as people learn the thing called pinyin, there is a dictionary like this, and they can learn by themselves.

"Mr. Fu Nian, do you know how big the world is?" Ye Wuji said again after seeing Fu Nian stop.

After Ye Wuji finished speaking, without waiting for Fu Nian to speak, he stretched out his hand, and a scroll appeared in Ye Wuji's hand, and then Ye Wuji stood up, walked to Fu Nian's side in person, and stopped Fu Nian when he was about to stand up.

"This is a map of the world. "This scroll is a world map, which was barely drawn by Ye Wuji from memory, and of course it was all drawn casually.

"It can't be. Fu Nian looked at the place where Daqin was written on the map, and his face was incredible, almost exactly the same as the first time Han Fei saw this map.

"Confucianism has always thought that the Central Plains, in fact, in the whole world, is just a minimal, there is a powerful empire comparable to the Great Qin, they are going around on a crusade, and soon they will border the Xiongnu, and then they will find the Great Qin, of course, at that time the Great Qin will also find them. Ye Wuji casually pointed to the northernmost place outside the map, where the Roman Empire was written.

"This is an empire that is even more barbaric than the Xiongnu, once they appear near the empire, the two empires will definitely have a battle in the end, if it is a complete Great Qin, it will definitely not be afraid of them, but if there is civil strife in the Central Plains at that time, things will not be easy to say, not to mention that there are other empires, although the distance from Great Qin is still far away. "There are not only Rome on the map, but also Persia, anyway, the four ancient civilizations in Ye Wuji's memory, Ye Wuji have all been added, anyway, no one has to verify it, and when someone can verify it, it doesn't matter.

"Is this true?" Fu Nian's consistent cognition was destroyed, so that Fu Nian didn't know what to do at this time, and couldn't help but confirm it again.

"Of course it's true, this is the information that Lao Tzu's predecessors went west to Hangu Pass and traveled all the way, and then Lao Tzu's predecessors sent this map through Hangu Pass and sent it back to Daqin, and it was because of this map that my father was so eager to unify the six countries, and then build the Great Wall. Ye Wuji couldn't help but say sorry to Lao Tzu in his heart, but this map was returned to Lao Tzu, it was very appropriate, who let Lao Tzu go west out of Hangu Pass.

"Everything my father did was to preserve the culture of the Central Plains, if the alien race invaded, what would happen at that time, I think it should be very clear now, when the Dog Rong clan invaded Hojing, how many cultures were destroyed, but it is vivid. "Night Wuji kept gilding Yingzheng's actions.

"I've said everything I need to say, Mr. Fu Nian, it's up to you to choose now, I don't want to deal with Confucianism unless it is absolutely necessary, but for the sake of the empire, for the cultural inheritance of the Central Plains, the empire needs to eliminate all unstable factors. After putting away all his things, Ye Wuji gave Fu Nian an ultimatum.

If this thought is still not shaken, then today I have to splash blood on the little sage village.

"Whew. Fu Nian took a deep breath, closed his eyes and pondered, he accepted so much information at once, most of which was information that destroyed his previous concepts, even if it was Fu Nian, his brain was a mess at this time, he needed to think about it and sort out the current situation.

"It seems that Mr. Fu Nian has decided. Another hour passed, and Fu Nian Zhongyuan opened his eyes, his eyes full of determination.

"The prince is really like the legend, he is completely prepared, and he came to the little sage village, and now if the little sage village does not do what the son of the world says, I am afraid that it will be destroyed, and I am afraid that future generations will also bear the infamy. "The reason why Fu Nian pondered for an hour was to analyze all the situations.

Fu Nian is the head of Confucianism, but he has read most of the books in the library, and there are also other sects of doctrine in it, whether it is a soldier, a Legalist, or a Taoist, Fu Nian knows a little about it, and the Confucianism of this era is the real Confucianism, not the Confucianism that was castrated in later generations.

"Xiao Shengxian Zhuang can agree to the request of the prince and move to Xianyang, but I have one condition. Fu Nian said.

"Speak. Fu Nian's words made Ye Wuji finally breathe a sigh of relief, and finally didn't have to fight each other in close combat.

"Please don't pursue the matter of the third junior brother this time. Fu Nian's words made Ye Wuji a little surprised, originally he thought that Fu Nian would fight for Confucianism.

"I can agree to that, but there is a premise. Ye Wuji thought for a moment and said, "That is, he will no longer participate in the anti-Qin forces from now on, no matter what I think he will not give up so easily." With Ye Wuji's understanding of Zhang Liang, this is simply impossible.

"I understand this, and then I will expel him from Confucianism, and as for the future, it will be his own business. Fu Nian nodded and said, Fu Nian knows this third junior brother very well, of course he knows that he is not so easy to give up, Fu Nian only hopes that he will not deal with him now, so that Zhang Liang will have time to prepare.

"Very good, in addition to a series of things about papermaking, when Xiao Shengxian Zhuang moves to Xianyang, we will talk about it separately, at that time, I still have a plan, I hope Mr. Fu Nian can support it. Ye Wuji promised with great joy.

"Oh, I don't know what it is, if Little Sage Zhuang can help, I will definitely help. "Now that the decision has been made, Fu Nian is certainly not a person who goes back on his word.

"This will be known when the little sage village arrives in Xianyang City, it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, I hope that from today onwards, the little sage village will start to move, and the empire will open the door to this. Although Fu Nian agreed, Ye Wuji was not ready to let Fu Nian have a chance to delay, anyway, if the little sage village was not relocated to Xianyang, he would not let go of the little sage village.

"No problem. "Although Fu Nian is very urgent due to the accident, since he agreed, it is better to move as soon as possible.

"That's been talked about for a long time. "When Ye Wuji and Fu Nian were talking about joy inside, the Star Soul and the others who were waiting outside had been waiting for more than two hours.

It's just that Xing Soul didn't have any impatient expression about this, and while chatting with Wei Zhuang about marginal topics, he looked at Zhang Liang and Yan Lu, whose faces became more and more ugly as time went by.

"Don't you convince the elder brother? Although Zhang Liang didn't want blood to be splashed on the little sage village, he didn't want the little sage village to stand on the side of the empire.

As the conversation inside became longer and longer, the bad premonition in Zhang's conscience became heavier and heavier.

The closer the time gets, it means that Fu Nian is thinking about it, otherwise it should be over soon.

"It's coming. When Ye Wuji and Fu Nian walked out of the hall together, Star Soul and the others immediately found out, and they were very interested in the conversation inside.

"Gather all the disciples. After Fu Nian came out, he immediately ordered Yan Lu.

"Big brother. Yan Lu and Zhang Liang looked at Fu Nian in surprise, this decision showed that Fu Nian had changed his mind.

"Needless to say, go. Fu Nian's face turned blank and he spoke again.

"Looks like we've come for nothing. Star Soul smiled at Wei Zhuang on the side.

"I don't think so. A mysterious smile appeared at the corner of Wei Zhuang's mouth.

Soon many Confucian disciples appeared in the hall, and all of them were elite Confucian disciples, dressed in Confucian formal clothes, and holding the Tai'a Sword, the token of the Confucian master, in their hands.

"I have something to announce. Fu Nian put the Tai'a Sword on the desk in front of him and said, "From today onwards, the Little Sage Zhuang will move to the Imperial Xianyang City, and all the disciples must cooperate with the people sent by the Imperial side. ”

"Big brother. Before Fu Nian's words were finished, Zhang Liang shouted loudly.

"Shut up. Fu Nian scolded Zhang Liang loudly, and then continued to announce, "This relocation is voluntary, those who are willing to go to Xianyang City together, they can go together, they don't want to go, they can not go, but they don't want to win people, they are no longer the disciples of Xiaoshengxian Village, this is the order of the master, all Confucian disciples go down today and think about it, and you must decide tomorrow." ”
