Early the next morning, Li Yuanjia took Han Shan out together.

Of course, he went to the court, while Han Shan went to receive the kapok seeds and the farmer rewarded by the emperor, and then settled them after bringing them back to the house by the way. A small farmer, naturally, does not need to be summoned by King Han in person, and Han Shan, who comprehends the spirit, is enough to deal with it.

Of course, the 100 acres of fertile land outside the city were also allocated by Hanshan.

Li Yuanjia's explanation is also very simple, no matter how many people are used and how much time is spent, anyway, plant this 100 acres of land for me with kapok, and in two years, I will see the cotton I planted!

In the past few years, Li Yuanjia has learned a lot of things.

Anyway, in this Han Wangfu, he is the sky, and it seems that there is no need to learn any tricks to control the subordinates, anyway, let you do whatever you want, reward if you do well, and punish if you don't do well! If it really spoils the seeds that Li Yuanjia begged for, not only the farmer who came all the way from Gaochang will be punished, but Han Shan will not be able to escape either, so he is not afraid that they will not care, or play something wrong with themselves.

As for movable type printing......

There is nothing to say, in fact, the performance of metal movable type is already very good, and the ink is barely enough, and the most basic conditions are met. But if you want to use it as a regular printing method, there are still many hurdles to overcome.

First and foremost, of course, we must continue to improve the quality of metal type and inks and reduce their production costs.

Now the production cost of a metal movable type is too terrifying, Li Yuanjia himself once estimated that if according to the nearly 10,000 Chinese characters included in the Shuowen Jiezi, according to the frequency of use of each word, ten to 100 movable types are made for backup, at least it will cost nearly 200,000 yuan of huge wealth!

On average, one word is always money!

When this number was calculated at that time, to be honest, Li Yuanjia was really taken aback! Because he really couldn't understand how it could be so expensive!

Later, I personally went to see the process of the blacksmiths creating Chinese characters and movable type, and Li Yuanjia found that it turned out that the expensive cost was not the most disgusting thing, and the real headache should be that with the dozen or so blacksmiths in the house, it would take at least sixty years to complete this huge project......

So without hesitation, Li Yuanjia gave up this plan.

The most important thing at the moment is for the blacksmiths to continue to improve their technology, speed up and reduce costs, and perhaps in a few years, Li Yuanjia will seriously consider whether to make a whole set of movable type play.

The second word is to solve the classification storage and word detection method of metal movable type.

Compared with the engraving of a book, as long as the engraving is placed in order, the engraving printing can easily solve the problem of storage, although the movable type of movable type printing can be reused, but it is very troublesome when typesetting! Because craftsmen have to find every word accurately from thousands of movable type libraries, it is necessary to solve the problem of sorting and storage, as well as accurate and fast word detection methods.

Third, it is necessary to solve the problem of unstable movable type in typesetting and avoid the crooked and twisted text that is printed.

Fourth, to solve the problem of movable type printing workers, after all, if you want to check and typeset, you must first know these thousands of traditional characters, not like the workers of engraving printing, who can engrave without literacy......

"What a headache!"

The first few items are okay, anyway, there are so many skilled craftsmen under Li Yuanjia's hands, as long as they are willing to spend time and money, they can always think of solutions, and the big deal is to reward and stimulate it. But the last point, that is, the fact that the craftsmen of movable type printing must be literate, is really a bit helpless.

Now is the eleventh year of Zhenguan, the era of illiteracy everywhere, and writing a letter to the family to find someone on the street.

Not to mention a craftsman with a low status and a lowly status, even the sons of ordinary landlords, those who can read and write are also a minority. If someone really knows every word and can easily check out the movable type they need from the font bank, who would want to be a printing craftsman?

"Do you mean...... Need to write a dictionary? ”

After the day dawned, Li Yuanjia sat in his study, scratching his head and thinking about the solution, this matter cannot wait until the future when the large-scale production of movable type really begins, and it must be prepared in advance and take precautions......

……

Just when Li Yuanjia had a headache, in the court of the Tang Dynasty, one by one government decrees were also issued at the beginning of the eleventh year of Zhenguan.

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, Li Ke, the king of Wu, was named the governor of Anzhou, Li Zhi, the king of Jin, was the governor of Bingzhou, and Li Shen, the king of Ji, was the governor of Qinzhou.

At that time, he was above the main hall, and Li Yuanjia was full of blankness after hearing this.

Li Ke is just that, he is eighteen years old this year, and he is barely an adult, but King Jin and King Ji are both ten years old, and they directly became governors......

Sure enough, it is Lao Li's own son, earlier than Li Yuanjia went to Luzhou to be an assassin!

If there is anything different from history, that is, Li Tai, who had just become the king of Wei for a few days, was originally going to be added as Yongzhou Mu and Zuo Wuhou General at the same time, but because the pit of Yongzhou Mu was occupied in advance by his eleventh emperor's uncle, even the position of Zuo Wuhou General was not obtained, and Li Shimin was directly canceled.

Li Yuanjia, who was ignorant, didn't know that he had robbed his nephew of his nephew's idle position.

In the next ten days of the first month of the eleventh year of Zhenguan, the Tang Dynasty court successively promulgated the Zhenguan Law and the Five Rites practiced by Fang Xuanling and others, all of which had a very important impact on Li Yuanjia.

Needless to say, the historical status speaks for itself.

This code, which was revised by the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling and others since the first year of Zhenguan, and accumulated ten years of work, is the blueprint for the later Tang Dynasty Law and Deliberation, and is also a milestone in the history of Chinese law. The Zhenguan Law and the later Tang Law established the norms of ancient Chinese criminal law, which not only determined the legal framework of the later Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, but also influenced the legal systems of Asian countries such as Korea, Japan, and Vietnam.

Even Li Yuanjia, a novice in history, knows the great name of Zhenguanlu.

As a result, he also admired the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling more and more, and then understood one thing more: the reason why these bigwigs are famous in history is not only because they stood on the right side when they were in Xuanwumen, but also because of their ability to handle government affairs......

However, if you want to say that what really has an impact on Li Yuanjia is another revised five rites of the old house, that is, the new rites of the Tang Dynasty. In particular, the part of the wedding ceremony of the prince is stipulated, and it will not be long before he will use it.
