At this time, Li Shimin asked: "Then how to start with a book?" ”

李成干 says:

"Your Majesty doesn't know, at this time the folk and official books are divided into two ways, one is engraving printing, the other is the hand-copying method, these two have their own advantages and disadvantages, engraving printing is not the general folk can be completed, time-consuming and laborious, a book from the opening to printing takes a very long time, and the price of hand-copying is very high, generally speaking, a book to consistently money, twenty words down to a penny, such a high cost, who can afford it!?"

Li Chengqian has been investigated, and if it were now, no one would be able to afford 20 words for a penny. It is a thousand times more expensive than reading a book now, and now a physical book of 200,000 words is only a few dozen yuan, if it used to cost 10,000 words, ordinary people can't afford it!

At the same time, it also leads to a trade, that is, copying books, which must be a profitable job. But it's not cheap!

When Li Shimin heard this, he was quite shocked.

He exclaimed, "I see! I can't imagine that my poor people in Datang really can't afford to read! ”

Only then did Li Shimin know that books were so expensive! They have been rich since they were children, and they didn't know that the people were so sad.

With this kind of strength, who can read a book except for the great family? A "Spring and Autumn Zuo's Biography" has nearly 190,000 words, which requires ten yuan, plus other books, it is impossible for you to read a book without spending hundreds of dollars.

There is also the need to teach the cost of the gentleman, and the need for the reader to take a leave of work, which is not something that ordinary families can afford.

No wonder the eldest grandson Wuji will say, it is better to change poverty!

So Li Shimin continued: "It seems that it is necessary to carry out a reform of the book!" I was a little sad when I heard this! I can't imagine that the people are like this! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the son wants to make a fuss from the book for this reason. Knock down the price of the book! ”

If it is really cracked, I am afraid that it will have to be hit below 1 percent before it can be popularized by the whole people. But the specific amount depends on the progress of everything, and Li Chengqian has also made an idea, if the printing can't be done, then papermaking! In this way, he didn't believe it, and the number went up, and the labor cost naturally decreased.

Naturally, the price of the book went down.

"Good! Gao Ming, your thoughtfulness, I admire it very much! ”

Li Shimin started, and of course the ministers were not to be outdone, and said one after another: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can think about the people, it is really a blessing for the Tang Dynasty!" ”

Since then, good words have been spoken continuously.

And of course, there are some who are skeptical.

Like the eldest grandson Wuji and Hou Junji, they don't believe that Li Chengqian can change.

Hou Junji said: "The minister thinks that the difficulty of changing from the book is very great, and the problem that has not been solved for thousands of years may not be enough with the strength of His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

At this time, someone disagreed, it was Cheng Biting Jin, and he immediately came out and said: "Hou Shangshu, the secretary of the military department, is not competent enough!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince solved a thousand-year-old problem some time ago, horseshoe, don't you know? It is also a thousand-year-old problem, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can solve it! What else do you question? ”

As soon as these words came out, he directly slapped Hou Junji in the face, and he was not to blame, because Hou Junji was not in Chang'an some time ago, so he didn't know anything about the horseshoe.

Only then did everyone remember that some people who knew each other stopped saying anything, and the more they talked, the more they proved their ignorance.

"Huh?"

Hou Junji was puzzled, so someone whispered to him: "Hou Shangshu doesn't know, some time ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince solved the matter of the horse's hooves wearing, and General Cheng was also trapped and defeated the Luo Yi rebels!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Hou Junji looked a little embarrassed, and a moment ago he was still saying that Li Chengqian was not good, and now he was slapped in the face.

So he said no more.

The eldest grandson Wuji picked it up and said, "The minister is also very curious, how can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince solve it?" Will it be solved now or another day? ”

Because they didn't see everything about books, and they didn't understand what Li Chengqian was going to do.

Li Chengqian nodded at Cheng Yanjin and said.

Regarding the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, he said: "Don't worry about the Duke of Qi! I'll let you know in a moment that this book can do that! ”

"However, what you put in front of you, Your Royal Highness the Prince, has nothing to do with the book!"

The eldest grandson Wuji straightened.

"Who says it has nothing to do with books? Let's see, shall we? ”

Li Chengqian was unhappy, and directly scolded the eldest grandson Wuji, and they talked a lot.

"Yes, Qi Guogong, let's take a look!"

Pei Lin said a flattering word at this time.

The eldest grandson Wuji snorted coldly and said, "Pei Lian, I see that your courage is getting smaller and smaller!" ”

It is said that Pei Lin is ears are red, because the eldest grandson Wuji is right, he Pei Lin was treated to death by Li Chengqian.

Instead, Li Chengqian said: "Qi Guogong, if you don't want to see it, you can leave directly!" ”

For Pei Lin to be regarded as a relief.

Angry that the eldest grandson Wuji was trembling, and was about to say something, the eldest grandson queen stood up at this time and said: "Okay, don't say it, let's see what Gao Ming is going to do, I'm very curious!" ”

"So it is with me! Smart, you're good to go! ”

Both husbands and wives said so, and Li Chengqian no longer scolded the eldest grandson Wuji.

Instead, he said, "Look, everyone! ”

After saying that, seven cuboids were taken out of a box, and these seven were lead blocks, which seemed to have patterns on them.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, this is not child's play! What are you going to do with this toy? ”

The eldest grandson Wuji still couldn't hold back and said.

This guy is against himself everywhere, and it looks like he has to find an opportunity to belittle him!

"Who told you it's a toy! Which eye did you see this toy? Don't pretend to understand if you don't understand, brush up on your sense of existence, what this king does, where can a rough person like you know!? ”

Li Chengqian was very serious, and said that the eldest grandson Wuji was so angry that he couldn't do it [which made some people feel very angry.

In particular, Cheng Yanjin laughed and said: "That's not it, Qi Guogong, it's good for you to watch more and talk less!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji ignored Cheng Yanjin but asked, "Then what is this?" ”

"Look patiently, don't pretend to understand, you'll know in a while."

Li Chengqian no longer paid attention to Chairman Sun Wuji, ignoring him to give him face, what could he do?

This guy is really annoying, questioning, do you have to be a little bit level?

You can really say anything.

"Everyone, please look at the lead in my hand, the root of all this is in this lead!"

After he had finished speaking, he walked over to the group, and there was something carved into the lead in his hand.

Everyone's eyes moved with the lead in his hand, and they all guessed what was in his hand.

At the same time, I wondered, what is the use of this thing? Isn't it good to solve the problem of books?
