Chapter 177 News Leak (Four Watches Asking for a Monthly Pass)

Chapter 177 Li Shimin inquired about the security work of the printing house, Qin Huaidao reported that Cheng Zhiji was on duty over there, Li Shimin was relieved to hear it, he knew that Cheng Zhiji was staring over there, it must be relatively safe.

"I'm worried that the family will be tempted to fight back when they know the speed of the printing house's printing of books." Li Shimin sat there and said worriedly.

"Fight back?" Qin Huaidao sighed in his heart, looked at Li Shimin and asked.

"That's right, they don't have the ability to rebel, and they can't raise an army, but it's no problem to make trouble for the printing house, they have the means." Li Shimin nodded solemnly and spoke.

"Trouble, how can you make trouble, the entry and exit need to be checked by the soldiers, the workers inside are all people from various prefectures, and the officials are not children of the family, what can they do?" Qin Huaidao still didn't understand and looked at Li Shimin, he had done everything in all aspects, and there was no problem at all.

"Well, it's better to be careful, although I don't know what they will do, but they will definitely fight back!" Li Shimin was still not at ease, looked at Qin Huaidao and said.

"Be careful, then!" Qin Huaidao saw that it was like this inside, and he emphasized it so many times, so he really needed to pay attention to it.

"Well, it's better to be careful, you have been out recently, and you have to bring your family soldiers with you." Li Shimin instructed Qin Huaidao and said,

Qin Huaidao nodded, and regarded this as a matter in his heart, even Li Shimin paid attention to it, it was impossible for him not to pay attention to it, Qin Huaidao had not considered this problem,

Otherwise, he would not have let Cheng Chuji be on duty over there tonight, but after thinking about it, there should be no way for the family to stop the start of this printing plant.

"Okay, let's go back, come on, bring a team of soldiers and escort Hu Guogong back." Li Shimin opened his mouth and said,

He didn't dare to keep Qin Huaidao here too late, worried that if the family knew the news of the printing house, they would take action against Qin Huaidao.

"Your Majesty, the minister will leave first." Qin Huaidao stood up as he spoke, and said to Li Shimin, Li Shimin nodded,

Soon, Qin Huaidao left the palace, thinking about what Li Shimin said.

And in Li Tai's house, after Li Tai finished eating, he sat in the study and didn't come out, and he wanted to read books to the outside world, but in fact, he couldn't read it at all!

He is very hesitant now, whether to tell the family that the printing house that Qin Huaidao made can really print tens of thousands of books a day, and if these books are released, then the books controlled by the family may not be useful.

After all, on the royal side, there are also a lot of books, not to mention other places, let's just say that there are a large number of books in the Chongxian Pavilion, all of which were collected by Li Shimin, and these books were taken out and printed, which was enough for the children of the Tang Dynasty to read.

But Li Tai also knew very well in his heart that if he leaked the news and the printing house of the family took action, then the family may continue to control the government.

But it can't be released, I am supervising the printing house, and the news from the printing house needs to be kept secret, and what came out of the printing house today is myself, Qin Huaidao, and several other people from the government's mansion.

"Eldest grandson, well, if something happens, then it's your bad luck." At this moment, Li Tai thought of Changsun Lian, and his eyes lit up, today in the printing house, there is also Changsun Lian, he is also a member of the family,

Therefore, if the news is leaked, it is also possible that the eldest grandson leaked it.

So Li Tai stood up and opened the door.

"Call Master Wei Tingwei and Lord Du Chuke Du here." Li Tai stood at the door and said to the family standing at the door.

"Yes, Lord Wang!" The man went out at once. After a while, Du Chuke and Wei Ting arrived at Li Tai's study.

"Sit, hey!" Li Tai told them to sit down, and he sighed.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Wei Ting asked.

"Today, this king went to the printing house outside the city, and you must know that the printing house is about to start." Li Tai looked at the two of them and said.

"I have heard of this, today, Hu Guogong went out, and Fang Yiai of the ink workshop personally escorted things to the factory outside the city, presumably, it is about to start preparing for printing, and the minister also heard that His Majesty has summoned those ministers to go to the printing house tomorrow to watch." Du Chuke nodded and said to Li Tai.

"Well, you know what? The printing house, in one day, is really capable of printing tens of thousands of books, one day! Li Tai stared at the two of them and said emphatically, and when the two of them heard it, their faces immediately changed.

"Really tens of thousands of books a day?" Wei Ting stared at Li Tai and asked.

"Really, what this king has seen with his own eyes today, the printing speed is unheard of, and your family is really going to be in trouble." Li Tai nodded affirmatively and said.

"This!" Wei Ting and Du Chuke glanced at each other, and they both saw panic in each other's eyes.

"If these books are released, you think, one book is printed a day, and after a month, there will be 30 types of books, tens of thousands of copies of each category, and many people in Chang'an City will be able to hold 30 books, and the books are still very cheap, such as the book "Analects", guess how much it costs?" Li Tai looked at them and asked.

"Well, white paper is cheap now, but if you copy a copy, it will cost about ten yuan, after all, when transcribing, sometimes you will make mistakes and waste some paper." Wei Ting thought about it for a moment and spoke.

"That's right, eight yuan, eight yuan for a book, thirty books, it's only two or three hundred yuan, and for ordinary families in Chang'an City, they can also afford it.

Just think about it, a year later, the entire Tang Dynasty, I don't know how many people will be able to buy books, my father originally planned to open Enke this year, next year, this king believes, he will definitely open it, when the time comes, the children of the family, can they continue to hold the official position of the court? Li Tai sat there and asked them very seriously, and the two of them also felt that something was very big.

"Is it true that tens of thousands of copies are printed a day?" Wei Ting was sure like Li Tai again,

Li Tai nodded and said: "I'm very sure, Qin Huaidao has already debugged the machine, even if this king goes, this king can print a lot of books, hey!" ”

Li Tai finished speaking, and sighed.

"Your Highness, I may need your help in this matter." Du Chuke immediately looked at Li Tai and said.

"What's the rush? You must know that this news is actually confidential, but this king can't bear it, so many outstanding children of your family are because my father may have to replace the children of the family, and he will have nothing to do with the court and official positions from now on. Li Tai stared at Du Chuke and asked.

"His Royal Highness Xie can tell us the news, we still need to report this matter to the Lord of the Home." Wei Ting stood up and said to Li Tai.

"You guys, you still have to think of a way, this king really can't bear it." Li Tai then said to them.

"Thank you, Your Highness, I'll leave first." Du Chuke also stood up, clasped his fists at Li Tai and said,

Li Tai nodded, the two of them went out immediately, they needed to tell their family master about this immediately, otherwise, once this printing factory was allowed to start for a year, in the future, the roots of their family would be cut by Li Shimin.

"Damn, how can this be?" Wei Ting hurried to the outside of King Wei's mansion, before they didn't believe that Qin Huaidao's printing house could print so fast.

I thought that it was enough to print more than ten books a day, but in their minds, they still thought about the engraving printing.

Plate adjustment, it is quite troublesome, a book does not know how many pages need to be engraved, who would have thought that Qin Huaidao's printing technique and what they imagined in their minds were not the same thing at all,

And in the Changsun Mansion, the eldest grandson also told the eldest grandson Wuji about the printing house.

"What do you say? If that's the case, tens of thousands of copies can be printed a day? The eldest grandson Wuji stood up in horror and looked at the eldest grandson with an incredulous expression.

"Yes, father, the child saw it for himself, and today is the commissioning of the machine, and the child sees that three to five thousand copies of the Analects will be printed soon.

From tomorrow, it will be officially printed, and by then, there will really be no shortage of books in the entire Tang Dynasty, and His Majesty has also selected about 200 books and sent them to the printing house.

The first batch of books is to print these 200 copies, and, father, if His Majesty wants to speed up, the sons and daughters will be able to speed up, because of those machines, Qin Huaidao can still continue to make them! The eldest grandson said to the eldest grandson Wuji.

"Damn it, so fast?" Eldest Sun Wuji was a little flustered, this was beyond his imagination,

Before, Qin Huaidao said that he could print tens of thousands of books a day, and he didn't believe it, but now it seems that he has underestimated Qin Huaidao.

"Father, the family will definitely decline! The child suggested that it is better to stay away from the family. The eldest grandson thought for a moment and said to the eldest grandson Wuji.

"Is it enough to stay away? Once the other families are killed, do you think our eldest grandson Wuji will still be able to stand out? The eldest grandson Wuji stared at the eldest grandson and asked rhetorically, but the eldest grandson heard it and did not answer.

"This matter, the old man will consider it, you go down first, don't tell outsiders, the news from the printing house needs to be kept secret, if it spreads, it will not be good for you." The eldest grandson Wuji explained to the eldest grandson and said.

"The child knows." The eldest grandson arched his hand and withdrew.

"Trouble!" The eldest grandson Wuji's head was in a mess,

He doesn't want to be a lamb to the slaughter, but if he wants to resist, he doesn't have that strength, the only opportunity is to support an obedient emperor, but now Li Shimin is in the prime of life, and his health is still so good.

And some time ago, Sun Simiao also diagnosed Li Shimin's body, prescribed some medicine to Li Shimin, and some ways to exercise, and now Li Shimin does some simple exercises every day according to Sun Simiao's instructions, it is conceivable that Li Shimin will not die in two years.
