Chapter 554: Intention
didn't think much about the problem of the mysterious forces, after all, this is not a problem that he can solve, not to mention that in his heart, he has already acquiesced in the pot that happened in the forest, and it is time to deduct the head of the Marquis of Ilson's forces......
The only thing that can be solved is to strengthen the defense of their own side, inform the alliance Yuno Village, which is also a Akamatsu noble, of what is happening here, and inform the other party of the inference that a beast tide may occur in advance in the Yasuo Forest, so that everyone can strengthen their vigilance, not ignore negligence, and make their own most reasonable emergency plans, and tide over the difficulties together!
Baron Lauren, who had carefully written down the question, comforted the old village chief a few words, and coaxed that after saying that what happened in Yuno Village had already been arranged and started to deal with it, he signaled to the other party to rest assured and promised to increase the number of soldiers who would step up patrols and fights after returning home, so that the dutiful old village chief could be regarded as sending away the dutiful old village chief.
"Okay, thank you just now, my friend!"
After the old village chief left, Baron Lauren thanked Eno without a head, and then looked at the confused Ino and added:
"Because of your advice, of course. ”
"The Baron is too polite, and it's great that what I said would be useful to you. ”
In fact, Ino did say a lot of things at the suggestion of Baron Lauren, but in fact there was no constructive opinion, but Ino couldn't know what he just said that inspired Baron Lauren, so he accepted it as if it was indeed like this.
However, Ino didn't know that Baron Lauren's words of thanks were indeed sincere, but the latter addition was just a misleading, and in fact, what the Baron wanted to thank was that because of Ino's presence, he gave himself a perfect cover for his prior ignorance, and if there was anything that needed to be added or doubted, he could simply ask through Ino's mouth, so that his image of a wise lord could be preserved!
......
After each went to the toilet, and the tea was replenished by Lis, Baron Lauren ended all the pleasantries and opened up the real topic of his trip:
"Ino, my friend, what I told the village chief just now that I still have business to talk about with you is not just an excuse to perfunctory him, but there is really a job to discuss with you. ”
The Ino family understands that if there is nothing important, it is difficult for the busy Baron Lauren to waste time to come to Yuno to chat with them, if it is just a general work handover, the deacon with Baron Lauren's letter is completely sufficient, in fact, there is no need to bother Baron Lauren to come in person, and when it comes to the situation that needs to be explained in person, it means that he really needs Ino's assistance.
Naturally, Ino had already understood that there was a serious topic, and he also responded:
"My lord, if there is anything, just ask, we have known each other for so long, you understand me, and if there is anything I can help, I will definitely do my best!"
Baron Lauren didn't speak, but pulled out a few things from the satchel he was carrying: two identical books and a wooden board, and handed them to Ino for him to look at for himself.
The problem is very simple, Baron Lauren found Eno here this time, in order to ask Eno to help check how difficult it is to make printing stencils and solve the stencil manufacturing problem......
Ino, who took the three things in his hand, first looked at a wooden board engraved with dense characters.
The characters engraved on the wooden board are upside down, and the neat font is a little skewed even if you look closely, but it does not affect the beauty of its regularity, but in addition to thinking of the noble lacquer seal, Eno has not been able to reflect the function of this wood for a while.
However, Ino is not a person who likes to drill into the horns, so he looked at the rest before he figured it out, and this time, everything suddenly became clear......
The board is like an oversized seal, and with just a sweep of the appropriate ink and a paper or animal fur paper covering it, a book can be made without the need to waste energy transcribing it by hand!
The reason Ino quickly figured it out, but the meaning of Baron Lauren's personal visit naturally couldn't just tell himself such a thing, how the finished product should work Ino can be ignored, but how the sample in his hand was made, whether it can be made similar here, what is the degree of difficulty, and whether there are better ways to do it, etc., are the satisfactory answers that Baron Lauren hopes to draw from Ino's mouth......
Touching the concave and convex feel of the font on the wooden board, Ino can find that the font size and appearance are quite different, and the dents of the yang engraving are deep and shallow, which is relatively rough, I believe that it cannot be from the hands of the craftsman, it is probably a rough product made by the apprentice, Ino knew it in his heart, and only said after a while:
"My lord, looking at the purpose of the board, I think it should be able to make books at a very low cost, and then you came to me, presumably not only to make this kind of plank, but also to make some improvements to it, right?"
Baron Lauren nodded in agreement with Ino's statement, but did not interrupt the other party's words, and motioned for Ino to continue to express his findings:
"Well, judging from the skill of wood carving, it should only be the hand of an apprentice, and it should be carefully burned word by word against the original of this page, just this piece in my hand, here, here, here, and here......"
In front of Baron Lauren, Ino pointed to the four positions on the plank, and then said:
"I just glanced at it and found out that these four places are wrong, but it is conceivable that the error rate is quite high, and the speed of making a board is very slow, it takes about a month, not to mention the amount of text in making a book, so it requires more professional talents, but in this case, I can't do it, but the cost is inevitably too high, my lord, are you right?"
Baron Lauren was very satisfied, but still shook his head and said:
"My friend, you're probably right, but there's a slight discrepancy between the way you said the board was built and the facts...... In order to save costs, the planks are indeed carved by the apprentices, and you overestimate the apprentices, if you only burn them with the naked eye, the apprentices can't complete it at all, all the words are reversed, there are too many mistakes, in order to overcome the problem of habits, the apprentices use the first copy of a version of the drawings that are reversed by hand, and then the carved planks are compared, and it will take two months, and you can see the finished product, and the mistakes cannot be avoided!"
After taking a sip of flower tea as if to relieve boredom, Baron Lauren continued:
"So I think it's better to have you make it at a higher cost, or to provide some ideas for improvement for a fee. ”
