At the end of December, the emperor obtained Sun Siyuan's movable type printing, but did not promote it, but distributed the "Xinxi Babu" to local officials who went to Beijing to report on their work. It was not until this fourteenth month that the world was finally advertised, and movable type printing was born, and this credit was recorded on the head of the imperial merchant Ji family, and the signature was Ge Weihua of the Ji family.

Ge Weihua was a leader in the liberal arts in his early years, young and promising, an official to the third grade, and was later recruited by the Ji family as a son-in-law, resigned from the official position and started business, only hung a vacant position in the Hanlin Academy, occasionally participated in some literati activities, and had some fame among Shilin students.

This time, the emperor launched the movable type printing technology, and the character mold was provided by Ge Weihua.

Along with the emergence of movable type printing, there is also a thick "Xinxi Dictionary", and the compiler is also signed by Ge Weihua. It contains more than 3,800 words, which has included most of the commonly used words of the people. The price of the dictionary is not expensive, and the readers are scrambling to buy it, and it is said that the emperor also plans to compile a "Xinxi Dictionary", saying that it is to include all the characters of Xinxi Kingdom, and it is estimated that there are more than 10,000 words!

After Sun Siyuan knew about this, she didn't react, this movable type printing technique was not invented by her, and she also got the money, and now these fictitious emperors can give it to whoever they want. She is only interested in Ge Weihua's name, after all, this name always makes her feel like she has returned to her hometown in China, and the people of her father's generation are either "founding the country" and "building the army", or "Baohua" and "Weihua", with a strong patriotic atmosphere in the name.

"You asked my father's name?" Ji Jiayin was a little puzzled. On this day, at Zhou Mimi's house to eat a warm pot, Sun Siyuan suddenly asked her father why his name was Ge Weihua.

"Well, I'm curious, I feel like your father's name is very good, what's the point of talking about it?" Sun Siyuan asked like this, she even doubted in her heart, maybe this person had crossed over from China like her?

"Sounds good? Hehe, don't be funny, it's just an ordinary name. Listen to my father, my grandmother's family is in David Village, my grandfather's family is in Dahua Village, when my father was born, the heads of the two villages gave names, and no one on either side could convince anyone, and then grandma made a final decision, and called Weihua, combined with the names of the two villages, so that both sides had no opinion. Ji Jiayin explained that she has a good relationship with her father, and she knows all these things.

"Well, that's it!" Sun Siyuan was a little disappointed, sure enough, how could this kind of thing happen so easily.

The introduction of movable type printing is a disaster for people who make a living by hand-copying, because the efficiency of printing is too fast, if it is a single copy, perhaps hand-copied is not inferior to printing, the more copies can be printed, the higher the efficiency of printing, which is unattainable by hand-copying.

But the effectiveness of printing is obvious to all, and the emperor naturally will not give it up for the sake of this small group of people. He is a Ming monarch who does not want to rule the country by relying on the policy of fooling the people, he hopes that more people will learn culture. He believed that the more people read, the more they learned, and if they had the conditions to study, everyone would have the opportunity to become a talent to serve the country. It is better to choose the best of the best, rather than the general among the lame.

The royal family opened a "school" on the edge of the palace to accept students from the capital, most of whom were famous Xixi in the capital, and some of them were bachelors of the Hanlin Academy.

As soon as this move came out, it attracted the attention of many sides, and Sun Siyuan also knew about it.

Zhao Mansion, Kang House.

Sun Siyuan and Zhao Youqian and Zhuang Steward nested on the kang to "fight the landlord", and the three of them all had some copper coins in front of them, more in front of Zhao Youqian, and less in front of Sun Siyuan and Zhuang Steward.

This kang room has always been there, and it has only been used in the past few days, Sun Siyuan is uncomfortable sleeping on it at night, so he comes over to "warm up" during the day, and by the way, he pulls Zhao Youqian and Steward Zhuang over for recreation.

"Yes, the emperor is very witty, he has more than a dozen private schools on the top of a school, and the fees are high to death, but those stupid people, I heard that they are 'protégés of the Son of Heaven', and they will pay if they are stupid, hum, the emperor is quite economical." Sun Siyuan pursed her lips disdainfully, although it was a school opened by the emperor, it was no different from ordinary private schools, but it was much more expensive. The children of poor families can't afford to pay the shackles at all, in the final analysis, they are just a tool for him to accumulate wealth!

"I can't afford it." Steward Zhuang looked at a Xiao Wang and a two in his hand, and felt a little sad in his heart. "The emperor is the Son of Heaven, and all Jinshi are considered protégés of the Son of Heaven, and now that the school is opened, it is estimated that it is easier for students to get Jinshi, and it is not entirely wrong to say that it is a protégé of the Son of Heaven."

"To four." Zhao Youqian silently put down the cards in his hand, and he won again.

"What!" Sun Siyuan looked at the bomb left in her hand, the whole person was not good, she was ready to put down the pair of three, and arrogantly put out a bomb to end the game, but Zhao Youqian actually had a pair of four in his hand!

"I'm not convinced!" Pulling the only few copper coins in front of him in front of Zhao Youqian, Sun Siyuan was about to take out money from his pocket, and Zhao Youqian spoke: "You lost fifty Wen today, don't play anymore, read books." ”

"Humph!" Sun Siyuan glared at Zhao Youqian, silently picked up the "Infertility Traditional Chinese Medicine Commentary" that she had thrown aside, looked at the book a few times, and peeked at Zhao Youqian.

Seeing that there was no hope of winning, the housekeeper Zhuang also took out a book to read, and while reading, he peeked at the book in Sun Siyuan's hand, he didn't know the words on the book, but the painting on the book was really good-looking, looking at the woman in the painting, it was estimated that this was a little yellow book like the flower play......

Zhao Youqian ignored the small actions of the two, he was very engaged when he read the book, and after a while, he forgot where he was, and was completely attracted by the things in the book. Sun Siyuan read books for a while, looked at Zhao Youqian for a while, and the later he went, the more time he spent watching Zhao Youqian, and finally stared at Zhao Youqian completely.

"Is it pretty?" After turning this chapter, Zhao Youqian closed the book and asked Sun Siyuan, who was staring at him.

"Beautiful." Sun Siyuan replied honestly and unintentionally.

"Hehe, haha." was amused by her, and Zhao Youqian laughed out loud.

"Well, huh?" Sun Siyuan came back to her senses at this time, and when she saw Zhao Youqian smiling so happily, she couldn't help but laugh too. Zhao Youqian has always been introverted, even if he laughs, he rarely makes a sound, but this time he laughed out loud, completely revealing his mood and full of charm.

Steward Zhuang didn't know why, but seeing that Zhao Youqian and the two were laughing happily, he also smirked a few times.

Immediately close to the end of the year, Sun Siyuan began to pull Steward Zhuang and Zhao Youqian to buy New Year's goods all over the capital, and turned around several streets in the capital. I bought a lot of food, and the housekeeper Zhuang also got a new dress of Linglong Pavilion, which Sun Siyuan chose, and Zhao Youqian paid for the silver.

"There are too many doors in our house, so let's prepare some couplets between the main gate and our two small courtyards, and leave the other rooms alone." When buying red paper, Sun Siyuan explained that Zhao Youqian answered, calculated the approximate use, and instructed the person who sold the couplet to take the red paper.

He doesn't like the couplets written by others, he wants to write them himself.

Although it was extremely cold in April, it rarely snowed, and in the middle of April, the capital was sprinkled with heavy snowfall, which lasted for three days, and did not stop until the eighteenth of April.

"Snow God Xiangrui!" Although they were shivering from the cold, the people of the capital were still very excited to meet such a heavy snowfall.
