Return to the palace from the palace.

Li Chengqian was not idle.

He hurried to the backyard to see Carpenter Zhang.

Seeing him coming, Carpenter Zhang and the others hurriedly got up and saluted: "Your Highness......"

"Excuse me."

Li Chengqian walked directly to the workbench of Carpenter Zhang and others.

"How's the font doing?"

"According to His Highness's orders, ten sets have been made now."

"There are only some unpopular and rare words, which we put at the end to engrave."

Carpenter Zhang replied truthfully.

Li Chengqian casually picked one up from the table.

The lettering is carved out of large wooden stones.

It is engraved with a plum character.

Li Chengqian took another photo inside, and finally pieced together his name.

These three words are smeared with ink and printed on paper.

Li Chengqian was extremely satisfied.

"Little Hatsuko."

"The slave is here."

"Whoever carves the character model will be rewarded with three hundred dollars."

"Yes!"

Hearing Li Chengqian's words, the group was very happy.

Who doesn't love money?

Even if you work for the eldest prince, you have to make money.

Under the leadership of Carpenter Zhang, everyone once again faced Li Chengqian and saluted: "I'll wait, thank Your Highness." ”

"You don't have to say thank you."

Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "It should be me who says thank you to you." ”

"This small lettering, although it looks inconspicuous, is enough to change an era."

"When this thing is really put into use, everyone in Datang will really have books to read and everyone can read and write."

What he came up with was viliveprinting.

These people in front of them don't know what this will bring to this era.

But in the future, they will surely understand how great what they are doing today.

As the saying goes, if the youth is strong, the country is strong, if the Datang teenagers are literate, why is there no talent available in the Datang?

How can my Greater China not be strong?

But before that, Li Chengqian still had one more thing to solve.

That is the problem of the future of book printing.

Li Chengqian would not be stupid enough to distribute books for free on the street.

That kind of thing, only a fool can do it.

Is Li Chengqian a fool?

So, he had planned it for a long time.

In the afternoon of the second day, he had a large table of food cooked.

Then let the eldest grandson rush to invite the eldest grandson Wuji over.

When the eldest grandson Wuji came over, he looked at the table full of food.

He didn't move, but looked at Li Chengqian suspiciously.

"I said, nephew, why are you doing what you are doing today?"

Li Chengqian has become a little fox-like existence in his heart.

He didn't believe that Li Chengqian would be courteous and attentive.

Li Chengqian smiled, holding the teapot in both hands and pouring a cup of tea for the eldest grandson Wuji.

"Uncle, look at what you said, as if I was going to harm you."

Eldest Sun Wuji sneered: "The last time you invited me to tea, I lay on the bed for several days. ”

He hasn't forgotten what he did that time.

Li Chengqian was also a little embarrassed.

He didn't expect that the eldest grandson Wuji would hold such a grudge.

He sighed and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll tell you the truth." ”

"If I want to do something, I have to have my uncle's help."

"Don't look for me."

"I can't help you."

The eldest grandson Wuji got up directly and was about to run away.

Li Chengqian hurriedly pulled him back: "Uncle, don't you leave first, listen to me first." ”

"Say what?"

"I don't believe you kid can do anything good."

The eldest grandson Wuji knows this thing too well.

What good things can he do?

Unless the sun comes out of the west.

"Uncle, this is a good thing, I promise."

"And it's a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people."

Li Chengqian hurriedly said: "Didn't I get a paper mill now, I want to print some books to sell." ”

"But you also know that my father doesn't allow me to do business, so I have to find you for this matter......"

"Looking for me?"

"Selling books?"

The eldest grandson Wuji looked at Li Chengqian as if he was looking at a neuropath.

"I said you're crazy, aren't you?"

"Don't you know that books are now monopolized by the family?"

"If you sell books, I'm afraid the end result will not even be able to recover the cost."

In this era, the scale of the Maison's monopoly on knowledge formation was quite large.

In Chang'an City, there are pharmacies, garment shops, restaurants, butcher shops, and even green buildings.

But there are very few bookstores.

Even if there is, all that is sold is some wild history and miscellaneous talk.

And because of the high cost of paper and the high cost of book printing, books are scary.

The poor scholars couldn't afford it at all, and it was the family who went to buy the book in the end.

As a result, the Maison's monopoly on knowledge has formed a vicious circle.

If a scholar from a poor family wanted to read a book, he either borrowed a book from a nearby family and then copied the contents of the book and studied it.

Either you are simply boarding in a family and studying with the children of the family.

But the final result is that these children should be grateful to the family and give back after becoming famous or powerful.

What's more, like Cheng Biting Jin, he will be allowed to take his children as his wife.

This has led to a large-scale monopoly on talent.

Above the Tang Dynasty, the children of the family are nine times out of ten.

There are even times when Li Shimin can't help himself.

This is also the reason why he can't wait for Li Chengqian to break the rules.

"Qian'er, uncle knows that you have recently gotten cheap paper."

"But the cost of printing is so high that there's no need to do it."

The eldest grandson Wuji persuaded on the side.

Of course, it was also because he didn't know that Li Chengqian had come up with live printing.

If he knew, he wouldn't have said that.

Li Chengqian said directly: "If I say that the cost of one of my books is only ten yuan, will my uncle dare to sell it?" ”

"Ten cents?"

The eldest grandson Wuji was stunned.

looked at Li Chengqian with a face full of disbelief.

"Are you serious?"

"Seriously, of course."

Li Chengqian directly asked Qing Porcelain to take out the template for living printing.

Subsequently, he printed three pages in front of the eldest grandson Wuji.

That scene made the eldest grandson Wuji dumbfounded.

The eldest grandson Wuji directly snatched the paper, and then looked at the template of the living printing.

A smile began to appear on his face.

Laugh on your back at the end.

The eldest grandson Wuji looked at Li Chengqian with excitement on his face.

"Do you know what would happen to the world if these cheap books came out?"

"It will break the Maison's monopoly on knowledge and talent."

Li Chengqian's words hit the nail on the head.

The eldest grandson Wuji was full of appreciation: "Qian'er, Qian'er, you are really the most precious treasure of my Tang Dynasty." ”

"Hey, hey."

"I'm also in it for the money."

Li Chengqian hides his merits and fame.

just pretended to be a philistine who was all about money.

"Okay, okay."

The eldest grandson Wuji saw what he meant, but he didn't break it.

"In that case, my uncle will promise you to open bookstores all over the country for you."

Not waiting for Li Chengqian to be happy.

The eldest grandson Wuji straightened his face and said: "But this account, my uncle will have four or six points with you at most." ”

Four or six points, four or six points.

What is Li Chengqian afraid of?

Li Chengqian smiled and said, "As long as my uncle is happy, it's okay for a few minutes." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji patted Li Chengqian's shoulder.

"That's okay, that's it, my uncle will leave first, and I'll start making arrangements as soon as I get back."

"Okay, I'll send my uncle ......"
