Chapter 18 Engrave a set
The gap between the times is so helpless and gratifying!
What made Li Yuanjia helpless was that in order to arouse the little girl's interest in learning mathematics, he could only pick up his paintbrush and make one cute and interesting picture after another, which consumed a lot of time; And what made him feel happy was that the effect of these paintings was so obvious, and it immediately hooked the little girl's heart.
It's so much fun for a kid.
So when Li Yuanjia saw that she was immersed in the world of mathematics and couldn't wait to do the next problem immediately after completing a problem, she was naturally happy, but she couldn't help but be a little careful.
What a poor child!
Although as the eldest lady of the Yingguo Mansion and with a noble status, she is only six or seven years old but has become an unattainable figure in the eyes of countless people, but looking at Yuwen Shudora, who was deeply attracted by some children's paintings at this time, Li Yuanjia will feel that she is very happy?
Don't be funny!
In addition to her higher status, compared with those children in the future, what is she worthy of envy?
Food, clothing, housing, transportation, eating, drinking, and having fun, just pick one out, except that the house must be bigger, Yuwen Shutara is simply the rhythm of being beaten by ordinary children in the future.
is the simplest needs of food and clothing, which are not of a grade in Li Yuanjia's opinion.
For example, eating the above, not to mention that many fruits, vegetables, grains and meats have not yet been introduced to China in later generations, that is, the eight major cuisines, which one will not make the Tang Dynasty people drool?
And wear it, most children in the future can wear a light and warm down jacket in winter, right? And what about Little Mary? In winter, it can only be wrapped in layers of silk cotton or fur, and the whole person is like a small ball, and it is difficult to walk a few steps! Every time I see her like this, Li Yuanjia will think of when I was young in my previous life, there was no heating, no down jacket, and the kind of labor protection cotton clothes and cotton pants issued by my mother's unit in winter, I am afraid that I am afraid that I will be at least seven or eight pounds up and down......
Far from it.
In fact, food, clothing, and housing are secondary, in Li Yuanjia's view, the most pitiful place for children in this era is to play - their spiritual life is too scarce.
The Internet, mobile phones and TV, of course, there are no playgrounds, no parks, in fact, it is understandable, but for a small child, there are no children's stories to listen to when he is a child, there are no picture books to read, isn't it pitiful?
People don't write stories for children these days.
The reason is naturally very simple, because paper is very precious, whether it is ink or ink, the price is also expensive, and readers are eager to use these pen, ink, paper and inkstone carefully, who would be bored enough to use them to write children's stories? As for things like using good Hanwang paper to draw rabbits, chickens and kittens, only Li Yuanjia would be willing to do it......
In fact, compared to time, what is this bit of paper and ink?
Anyway, seeing that Little Mary was so happy doing the question, Li Yuanjia said that everything was worth it - if you can see this scene, how envious those teachers and parents in the future should be!
So when Yuwen Shudora made it to the fourth page, and he still couldn't stop, Li Yuanjia had already made a decision here: "Han Lucheng!" ”
"What do you command, my lord?"
The butler who was waiting next to him immediately stepped forward and bowed his head respectfully.
"This set of things, go back and take it out of the city!"
Pointing to the stack of paper on the table, Li Yuanjia said lightly: "Tell Li Zhong to have someone carve it for me, and then print a hundred copies first!" ”
"Engraving...... You mean the paintings? ”
After being stunned for a moment, Han Lucheng's eyes suddenly widened!
Oh my God!
No kidding, right?
Han Lucheng had actually seen these things a long time ago, and his heart was full of surprise at that time. Because Li Yuanjia painted very finely, for example, the rabbit addition problem, more than a dozen little rabbits only occupied a small area after drawing, which can be said to be exquisite.
So after listening to the king's words, Han Lucheng was so dumbfounded!
This table of blank paper is at least thirty-four pages!
How many craftsmen would be needed to carve a engraving? How much time do they take? Especially the pictures that are so small that they are amazing......
"Yes, that's it!"
Frowning slightly, Li Yuanjia nodded and said, "Let Li Zhong find someone to carve them out...... Don't worry, find a few people to carve these paintings, this year...... No, it can be carved out by next summer! ”
Of course, he knew very well about Han Lucheng's worries.
But Li Yuanjia also has his own considerations, on the one hand, he paints stick figures, the kind where the lines are easy to outline, not as difficult as Han Lucheng thought; Second, for the sake of his own mathematics promotion plan, what is the point of spending some manpower and material resources?
Anyway, in the past two years, he has asked Li Zhong to keep recruiting craftsmen for engraving, and the house has also cultivated a lot of himself, if he doesn't use it at this time, can he still expect them to continue to make metal alloy movable type?
Seriously, that stuff costs too much!
Even if he is as rich as Li Yuanjia, he is really distressed when he sees a large amount of money spent every month. So let them draw a few people to make engravings, and he really didn't hesitate at all.
It was precisely because he felt this kind of thought that Han Lucheng immediately gave up the idea of persuasion, and immediately nodded: "Yes, king, I will immediately ask someone to send a message to Li Zhong and them!" ”
"Well, go ahead!"
With a wave of his hand, Han Lucheng was sent away, and Li Yuanjia's gaze turned to Yuwen Shuduoluo beside him again.
The little girl didn't seem to hear the conversation between him and the housekeeper just now, and her big eyes were still staring at the math problem in front of her...... Well, in Li Yuanjia's eyes, these are math problems, but in Ubun Shutaro's eyes, these are just a game called math.
So many cute little animals, it's so funny.
Looking at her like this, Li Yuanjia really became happier the more she watched it, and her thoughts couldn't help but soar: "The children these days are so pitiful, they don't even have any decent games, I should have done a great thing to create a game called mathematics for them, right?" Tsk, especially these stick figures, where have the children of the Tang Dynasty seen this? This is to look at the math problem as a comic book, and to do the problem or something...... After printing one hundred and eighty sets of it in the future, send it out to try it first, and if the effect is good, you can do more, hehe! ”
Thinking about it, Li Yuanjia couldn't help but be happy.
And his strange laughter finally caught the attention of Yubun Shutaro, but the girl just glanced up at her teacher...... Cousin...... And uncle? Soon he lowered his head again, and got excited about an addition problem related to small fish on the white paper......
