Chapter 142: Planting Trees to Educate People, Stinky Tofu (Ask for the first order, 4!) )
Bai Ji asked Chun Yuyue, how much is a roll of bamboo slips worth?
Normally, a volume of forty Jane, one Jane can be written with two or three crosses, about a thousand words, worth sixty dollars, equivalent to two stones of corn. Not to mention ordinary people, even small officials can't bear this price. And this is quite normal, some of them are the words of great sages, and the price is immeasurable.
According to normal calculation, sixty dollars is also a sky-high price.
According to Chun Yuyue, he usually prostitutes in the doctor's hall. There is a collection of books from all over the world in the doctor's museum, and you can read them if you want to. But if you want to buy it yourself, you can't afford it, and some of them are the only ones written by Daxian himself. He's one of those who only sees and doesn't buy in bookstores.
Chun Yu Yue did not understand the meaning of movable type printing, but Bai Ji knew it.
Ten years of cultivation, one hundred years of education. Education is not something that happens overnight, and don't think about doing a good job in education if you don't have everything in hand.
Now those who master the affairs of the people, nine out of ten are after the nobles. Let's just say Zhang Liang, his ancestor was the fifth generation of Xianghan, a well-known old nobleman. The Qianshou at the bottom can't even eat enough, what kind of bicycle do you need?
Learn? Learn a fart!
Only the theory of aristocratic blood is difficult to last. Not to mention the emperor, the talents that the Qin State needs in the future are not enough. The imperial examination system has been extended to later generations, which naturally has its significance. Removing part of the black-box operation also gives many people a fair chance to rise. It is a good thing that there are capable people who live there.
Now if you want to be a nobleman, the best way is to become a noble diner, and if you can show your talents, you may be able to become a high-ranking person.
To put it bluntly, the power is still in the hands of the nobles. If Bai Ji is now in charge of the imperial examination system, I am afraid that he will be resisted by countless nobles. Even if he is an immortal, he will become a thorn in the side of countless people.
Bai Ji doesn't care, he lives a long time anyway.
The imperial examination system is not in a hurry first, and it is true that education should be popularized first and schools should be established.
I can't take care of other places, Jingyang will do it first.
Looking at those children with snot bubbles, running around barefoot every day. Some fish, some pick grass, and the white grass nose is a little sour. The children of poor families have been in charge of the family for a long time, and he also came here like this.
Bai Ji did this not on a whim.
A few days ago, Xu Fu saved a six-year-old child. When I was chopping wood in the mountains, I accidentally ate a poisonous mushroom because I was hungry. Thanks to the early delivery, after giving the child an emergency vomiting, he was saved by taking a decoction.
Bai Ji thought a lot about it that day, and then decided to popularize education. Potatoes, which can only fill their stomachs. If they want to change their fate, they have to learn.
Chun Yuyue trembled and carved the words, his knife work is very good. The engraved words are very atmospheric, and it is comfortable to look at.
Bai Ji sat behind him like a ghost, "Lao Chun, do you know the enlightenment chapter of the Qin State?" ”
"Yes, it's mainly three people."
When it comes to this issue, Chun Yuyue is not sleepy in an instant.
"After Qin implemented the small seal, it was divided into three people. Zhao Gao, the former commander of the CRRC government, made the "Calendar Chapter", Taishi Hu Wujing's "Erudite Chapter", and Prime Minister Li Si's "Cangjie Chapter". ”
"Do you have a bamboo slip?"
"Well, these are all enlightenment chapters, the more unexpected."
Damn, what's the use of you?
"However, the more I still remember "Cangjie Chapter"."
Chun Yuyue likes to suppress this set first, first pull a lot of it in front, and then come to a 'but' later.
"Come, I'll hear two sentences."
Chun Yuyue rolled up his sleeves, put down the pen knife in his hand, and cleared his throat.
"Cangjie wrote a book to teach his heirs. The youngest son inherits the edict and is cautious and respectful. Recite it with all your might, day and night. Gou Wu has made history, and he will argue and govern. Super anecdotes, out of the ......"
It's about a thousand words, and it reads quite smoothly. It's just that some words make Bai Ji a little confused, which belongs to ancient words. At first, Bai Ji thought about implementing simplified characters, but later he thought about it.
It has only been two years since the Qin State implemented the small seal, and he pushed the small seal again to popularize simplified characters. Not to mention anything else, Chun Yuyue alone estimated that he wanted to hack him to death with a knife.
They finally got used to the small seal, and they had to learn simplified Chinese again?
Forget it, let's stop.
To be reasonable, Bai Ji thinks that it is more appropriate to use it as enlightenment or "Three Character Classic" and "Thousand Character Text". As long as some of the content is appropriately deleted, it is still possible.
"Cangjie Chapter" is not bad, but some sentences are quite obscure.
Bai Ji himself will have a little, plus now there is also an enlightenment chapter, the two books are only worth two thousand together, and Bai Ji now has to spend three or four thousand points a day of cultivation.
There are all kinds of things in the system mall, and the price is set according to the current level and practical value of the Qin State. For example, after Bai Ji spent a lot of money to buy "A Thousand Golden Prescriptions", the prices of many medical books plummeted.
……
……
A few days later, Xu Fu's relatives also came to Xianyang.
There were thirty or forty people, both men and women.
There is also a can of tofu, which was given by a midnight man in a certain place in Langya. Of course, after this period of fermentation, it already stinks......
After Bai Ji opened the jar, the stinky Shang Niu almost slashed it with a sword.
He also said that it must have been a thief who sent dung and deliberately insulted Bai Ji.
This matter was purely a misunderstanding, and even Bai Ji didn't expect that Xiao Weng would be able to rely on himself to make stinky tofu. According to Yoi Ong, this tofu is not shelf-stable and will stink after a few days of hot weather.
Some villagers felt that it was a pity that the stinky tofu was lost, and they adhered to the principle of saving food, gritted their teeth and fried it in mutton fat. Sprinkle with salt and chopped green onions, and add some old vinegar, but I didn't expect the taste to be good. Now stinky tofu has become a local specialty and is very popular.
There are even big businessmen who specifically ask that this tofu is not smelly.
Bai Ji closed the jar and smiled wryly.
He made a preconceived notion that if he didn't popularize it, he wouldn't do it. In fact, many of the things eaten in later generations were passed down from generation to generation by the ancients.
Bai Ji was in a hurry at that time, and he didn't say anything about stinky tofu. However, they still did it with wisdom. It may be just a coincidence, but it has its historical inevitability.
Xu Fu doesn't have many relatives, they are all members of the Xu family. Therefore, Bai Ji gave Xu Fu a day off. After inquiry, Xu Fu's old wife did suffer from a fever on the road, and an old man who claimed to be Huang Shigong left them to stay temporarily and gave her treatment, but the jade pendant given by Bai Ji was lost.
Huang Shigong is actually the synonym of Huang Tingjian, that is, the giant of the Mo family. In history, Zhang Liang once said that he met Huang Shigong and then received a book, but in fact, this was just to cover up his identity and fabricate it.
Zhang Liang is the release of the spirit son, and the "Plain Book" is the secret book of the Hidden Spirit Sect. In order to properly obtain the "Plain Book", this story was compiled. The Hidden Spirit Sect has strict rules for releasing disciples to the outside world, first, because they cannot get involved in the secrets of the Hidden Spirit Sect, and secondly, they must retire after success.
In addition, Liu Bang later agreed with the people in three chapters: the murderer dies, the wounder is punished, and the thief is punished. Actually, this is Qin Mo's Close.
As Huang Tianqiong said, Xu Fu's relatives are fine. Moreover, they were unaware from beginning to end. Huang Tingjian's self-report also made Bai Ji implement all kinds of speculations in his heart.
Through his relatives, Bai Ji also knows something about Langya. Now tofu has become an industrial chain, and many Qiantou have benefited from it.
Merchants traveled from south to north to transport beans to Langya. After that, they would make tofu, store it, and then transport it to the merchants to sell the stinky tofu.
The night weng has never violated Bai Ji's intentions, and has never hidden his secrets. Many Qiantou came to learn from their teachers, and they did not take their money and taught them generously.
If you want to be rich, you have to keep up.
"I'll send it to the kitchen later and make a fried stinky tofu."
Shang Niu covered his nose and his eyes widened, "Don't think about it!" ”
"Fuck off, don't eat later."
Bai Ji spat fiercely. Stinky tofu smells bad and tastes good. It just so happens that the chili peppers are also a little ripe now, and they must be delicious when chopped and mixed up.
Shang Niu had to obediently hold the crockpot, hold his breath and walk towards the kitchen. Anyway, he didn't understand, how could Bai Ji be interested in this kind of thing? Can you eat this thing?
If you don't eat or eat, you just jump outside the station and jump into the river, and Shangniu doesn't eat a bite of stinky tofu.
……
Bai Ji also asked He Miao to help arrange it. Now He Miao has become the little housekeeper of the mansion, although Chun Yuyue is the nominal steward, many things are still in charge of He Miao.
Xu Fu's relatives are such people, and it is not easy to travel and travel. Let them rest for a while and add food in the evening. Last time, Bai Ji gave Xu Fu a choice, and he chose to stay in the house and follow Bai Ji.
These days, Xu Fu's performance is also remarkable, he has studied medical books wholeheartedly, and he has also saved many people. Bai Ji is also willing to give Xu Fu a face and arrange all his relatives properly. Another day, I will discuss with Xi, move their household registration to Jingyang, and build another house.
……
After a long time, the words Chun Yu Yue were also engraved. The knife work is still okay, and there is no problem with Bai Ji trying it with ink. It's just that it can't be burned with fire, and the white millet will crack directly after being slightly grilled.
Mistaken!
He remembered that Bi Sheng used cement, which is clay in a broad sense. And he didn't ask for it at the time, Chun Yuyue dug the mud from the vegetable garden.
After watching the word blank crack, Chun Yuyue realized that something was wrong. This is the success of his hard work for three days, and there are thousands of words.
"Lao Chun...... You've done a good job these days, but this mud can't do it, it cracks when it burns, and you can't do movable type printing, you have to make it with clay. ”
"So ......"
"So, let's re-engrave it!"
Chun Yuyue's feet were weak and he fainted on the spot.
"Quick, get a basin of cold water!"
"Don't let him pass out."
As soon as Bai Ji finished speaking, Chun Yuyue stood up with a snort.
He Miao was stunned, what kind of immortal method is Bai Ji casting?
People who have fainted, just listen to the cold water?
……
……
Outside the Jingshui Pavilion, a luxurious convoy swayed and swayed.
In the carriage at the front sat two people, both wearing jade crowns and richly dressed.
Elderly, about twenty-four or five.
Young, early tens.
"Brother Huang, have you arrived at Jingshui Pavilion?"
