Chapter 101: Emergent Edge, Movable Type Printing
Lin Xiaoyan, who was standing on the side, frowned slightly when she saw him, and walked to the wooden board that she had just crossed her shoulders in a panic, and did not forget to say: "Brother Qiushan, I'll find out the master version for you to see, if there is anything wrong, I'll change it together...... You know, I've printed a lot of books, and I haven't really printed any sheet music except for you......"
Whoa—
Before Boss Kong's words were finished, the wooden board he was pulling in his hand was dragged outward, and all the neatly stacked masters were suddenly dragged to the ground, and they fell everywhere.
"This-"
"Master."
Without waiting for Boss Kong to come back to his senses, an eleven-year-old boy immediately ran over from behind the rice paper with words on it, helped the others and said: "Master, what are you looking for, tell Jin Muis, how did you do it yourself, have you forgotten, the doctor told you a few days ago, let you rest and wait for the illness on your waist to heal, and then walk around......"
Boss Kong's apprentice Jin Mu kept nagging, and his skills were not lost to Lin Xiaoyan's teachers who taught in the classroom in the past.
As soon as the two were combined, Lin Xiaoyan immediately had an epiphany: Could it be that the way the teacher taught and nagged thousands of years ago was learned from Jin Mu?
I instantly recalled the past and heard countless familiar words in class: "We are talking about this question for five minutes; The students who sleep in the back should not make noise to the students who are listening to the class in the front, and those who eat in class should not make noise to the students who sleep in the back row; When you fall in love now, you are using your youth to educate other people's husbands and wives; If you don't study hard, no one will ask you to ...... in the future."
"It's out of the way, this is a score for Akiyama, and if you make a mistake, there will be a problem with the music they play, so I have to do it." Boss Kong stood up with difficulty, handed the master in his hand like a treasure to Akiyama and said, "Brother Akiyama, my eyes have been a little blurry recently, you can help me see if there is anything wrong with other places." ”
Lin Xiaoyan looked at Boss Kong's polite appearance and didn't want to be a cheater, only to see Akiyama take the master, take a closer look, there are indeed two inconspicuous mistakes, if you don't look carefully, it is difficult to find, and after he explained, Boss Kong immediately walked towards another room.
"Master, what are you going to do here?" Kaneki followed.
"Looking for the first draft sent by Brother Akiyama, there are correct words on it, and I want to re-engrave a template and print it." Boss Kong said stubbornly.
At this time, Lin Xiaoyan looked around the bookstore, the environment here was indeed not suitable for posters, but Boss Kong's rhetoric gave her a new idea.
"How troublesome it is to redo the template, it is better to remove the wrong word, and then re-insert the correct word, firstly, the project is not so huge, and secondly, you don't have to work so hard." Lin Xiaoyan suggested.
Boss Kong's printing method is very old-fashioned, once a mistake must be all made back, if you change to movable type printing, the effect is different, even if it is a mistake, it is easy to change.
"This big brother, I think you are talking about the layman laughing insider, there are many ways to carve on this printing, if it is really as simple as you said, my master's eyes will not be tired of disease." Kaneki said unconvinced.
In his heart, Lin Xiaoyan is the kind of person who doesn't understand nonsense.
Since ancient times, printing requirements have been very strict, and if you make a mistake, when you read it, you may not be able to understand it.
So they have to be lean.
"It's a nuisance." Lin Xiaoyan looked at Jin Mu with a pretentious face, strode over the master in Boss Kong's hand, and pointed with his fingers: "That's the word, right?" ”
"Hmm." Boss Kong nodded instinctively.
He actually admired Lin Xiaoyan in front of him, but his bookstore was limited and couldn't help her.
At this time, Lin Xiaoyan pulled out the knife hidden in her boots, the handle of the knife was golden yellow, with a dragon pattern handle engraved on it, and a red gem in the middle, and the blade was glowing with a cold cold light.
"Don't be afraid, this knife is very sharp, and you can get rid of misspelled words in one fell swoop."
Lin Xiaoyan said, picked up the short knife in his hand, and made a few strokes of "brush brush brush", everyone heard a few sounds of "squeak, squeak", and then Lin Xiaoyan put away the dagger and put the thumb of his right hand under the master, and the wrong word when carving fell to the ground at once.
"You...... How dare you break the master of my master's carving. Jin Mu scolded.
"I said, boy, I've got rid of him." Lin Xiaoyan held her forehead, and she had a headache at Jin Mu's dog bite Lu Dongbin who didn't know how to be good. Then he said again: "Boss Kong, show me the manuscript that Brother Akiyama gave you before." ”
Boss Kong didn't know what Lin Xiaoyan was going to do, but with her firm eyes, he still handed Lin Xiaoyan the manuscript that Akiyama handed him for the first time.
At this time, Lin Xiaoyan picked up a small wooden block that had not been engraved, re-engraved a correct character according to the size of the miscellany on the master, and then cut it off and inlaid it.
"You'll make it up now." Lin Xiaoyan pointed to the master in his hand and said.
Jin Mu ran forward with a questioning face, stood on tiptoe to look, the whole person was dumbfounded, he took the master in Lin Xiaoyan's hand, ran to Boss Kong and said, "Master, you see, there is no trace at all." ”
Boss Kong was a little unbelieving at first, but now after gently touching the master with his palm, he was surprised and happy in his heart, and immediately said: "Childe, thank you for helping me out." ”
"Well, as long as you agree to borrow a place for me to make a poster."
Lin Xiaoyan has been looking at this place for a long time, although the equipment is not very complete, compared to what is not, it is already much stronger here.
"It's absolutely no problem, but Childe, the contemptible person still has one more thing to ask for, and I beg Childe to fulfill it." Boss Kong said, bent his knees, and knelt directly on the ground.
"Master, why are you kneeling to him?"
"Boss Kong can't help it."
The two voices rang out almost simultaneously.
Boss Kong looked at the master plate scattered all over the place, sighed and said: "Little boy, you don't know something, doing our line of work is not only rigorous, but also needs to be extra careful, but people have a good reason, as soon as we make a mistake, the whole master has to start again, not to mention the huge project, but also very hard, if you encounter the things explained by the emperor, if you don't pay attention, your life will be gone......"
"The contemptible people see that the little boy is very good at his craftsmanship, can he pass on the skills just now to the contemptible people, and in the future, it will be no problem for the little boy to make cows and horses."
Lin Xiaoyan thought it was a big deal, it turned out that Boss Kong just wanted to learn movable type printing, and immediately showed a polite smile and said: "What's so difficult about this, if Boss Kong likes it, I will tell you the mystery of movable type printing." ”
