Chapter 450: It's time to expose the printing press
"Ugh! Zilong took your things? Xu Ding was slightly stunned, and then he was a little suspicious, and looked at Ma Yunlu again.
Could it be that Zilong had something to do with this girl when he came back from Liangzhou a few years ago, but this girl should have been very small at that time.
For a while, Xu Ding wanted to gossip, but Ma Yunlu, the girl, was a little anxious, and asked directly: "I won't tell you what it is, Master Hou, that Zhao Yun is your general, you should know where he is, tell me, I will go to him in person." ”
Xu Ding thought for a while and said, "Okay! He is in Jinan Kingdom in Qingzhou, and I will arrange for someone to take you there. ”
"Or Master Hou, you are an understanding person, happy!" Ma Yunlu walked straight over and patted Xu Ding, then turned his head and left happily.
Xu Ding and Sun Qian's eyes widened, and they were stunned for a while, and then Xu Ding looked at the direction Ma Yunlu was walking and said, "This is really Ma Teng's daughter!" ”
dared to pat herself on the shoulder, this girl was a little bolder, and she almost called her brother a brother.
Sun Qian stiffened his neck and spit out: "It should be!" ”
"Haha, now Zilong is in trouble." Suddenly, Xu Ding laughed evilly.
To be honest, among the subordinates, there are really not many generals who are not married, Zhao Yun is one, Cai Yan and others have helped Xu Ding's subordinates to get married, but Zhao Yun has been vague and shirked for various reasons.
Thinking about it now, Xu Ding found that he had found a trace of clues.
However, this Ma Yunlu's personality is not easy to control, a small fierce horse, and I don't know if Zilong can withstand it.
put away the gossip, Xu Ding listened to Sun Qian's report again, Ma Teng had no problem with the alliance, and said that he would be more wary of Dong Zhuo.
After inspecting the hardening of bridges and official roads, Xu Ding returned to Donglai.
Before he could sit down for long, Donglai College invited him over.
The old man had something to do with himself, Xu Ding personally ran and came to Cai Yong's office, Xu Ding asked, "What is the matter with my father-in-law looking for me?" ”
"Bokang came to you for an important matter, but I can't talk for a while." Cai Yong may also feel that what he mentioned is a bit of a partnership, so he is very entangled and embarrassed.
Xu Dingdao: "Father-in-law, has something to say?" ”
Seeing that Cai Yong was a little twisted, Zheng Xuan said: "Such a big person, what kind of twisting, as if he doesn't understand Bokang's personality." ”
Hearing Zheng Xuan's agitation, Cai Yongyi gritted his teeth and said: "When Bokang first established the library project, you promised me a condition, do you remember?" ”
Xu Ding recalled for a while, then remembered, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law is talking about printing!" ”
When the library was first built, Xu Ding promised Cai Yong that this technology would be published within five to ten years, so that people all over the world could get benefits and spread Chinese education to all states and counties.
After so many years, the library has been standing for so long, and the books that should be collected are almost collected.
Therefore, Cai Yong, a person who is dedicated to the people and engages in education for a hundred years, naturally has a complicated heart.
Xu Ding thought for a while and said: "I really forgot about it if my father-in-law didn't mention it, but don't worry, my father-in-law, I will do what I say, and I will let the newspaper publicize the printing technology to the world as soon as possible, so that the people of the world can benefit." ”
"Really, that's great, it's hard for you." Cai Yong was both excited and a little reluctant.
This is the son-in-law's thing, take it out for free for everyone to use, and if it sounds good, it is called selflessness, and if it is not good, it is called a loser.
This made his old face a little uncomfortable.
"Don't worry, father-in-law, and Zheng Gong, I didn't want to hide it from the world in printing, but the time was not right." Xu Ding said with a smile: "Now that the status of the library is unshakable, the collection of books in the world is almost complete, and I will not hide it." ”
The second elder nodded incessantly.
After Xu Ding left, he asked Guo Jia to be found, and Guo Jia was sometimes in charge of the newspaper, so Xu Ding said: "Feng Xiao, enable the Wendong World Plan." ”
"My lord, now we will publicize the information of engraving and printing to the world? Isn't it a little early. Guo Jia asked.
Wendong Tianxia planned to plan for a long time, and from the beginning, he did not plan to announce the living printing to the public, but to release the engraving printing that was a generation behind it.
Although engraving printing is also a good technique, it is always not as easy to use as movable type printing.
This method is extremely expensive and cannot be done by ordinary small families.
So this is used by Xu Ding to trap people, in order to pull the major families into the water.
When the major families have mastered the technology of engraving and printing, they will definitely vigorously print the collections collected by their own families.
It invisibly consumed a lot of their energy and money, and indirectly weakened the strength of the major families.
"It's okay, now that the library is a big weapon to be built, we can print books out, sell them for a round to make some money, and throw out the engraving and printing, as long as we have the paper in our hands, the major families still have to beg us, and we can't afford to make big waves." Xu Ding showed a wicked smile.
Guo Jia thought about it, and also felt that what Xu Ding said was reasonable, so he didn't mention anything else.
It's about arranging the implementation of the plan.
Soon, the caravan under Xu Ding's name began to carry a cartload of books out of Qingzhou and headed for various states and counties.
Books began to be sold in the main cities of the prefectures.
Bookstores, which have never existed before, have caused a sensation in all major states and counties, especially newspapers, which have taken the lead in launching advertising campaigns.
Yecheng!
"Hahaha, stupid, you actually sell books, and books can be sold?" After Yuan Shao received the news, he was dismissive.
Xu Ding's sale of books is nothing more than to gain the goodwill of the Hanmen and the family, and to take the opportunity of selling books to ease the relationship with the major families.
But this still doesn't change the title of the killer of the family, and the family still won't support him.
Ruyang!
"A bookstore, what bookstore, and a place to sell books?" Yuan Shu also smiled and flipped back: "Selling books, I'm afraid Xu Ding's brain has been burned, loser, really loser, books are the lifeblood of everyone, he actually took them out and sold them, this is simply unheard of, extremely stupid!" ”
Just build a library for mud legs to read for free, and now they are actually engaged in selling books.
Jingzhou Xiangyang!
"It's true, haven't you read today's newspaper? It also helped the bookstore advertise, and we have bookstores in Xiangyang City, Wancheng, Changsha, Jiangling, and Xiling in Jingzhou, so as to facilitate our Jingzhou people to buy books. ”
"That should be expensive!" Someone asked.
White paper is not cheap, not to mention that it is still a book printed on it, which is more expensive, and the price should not be low.
Someone said: "It's hard to say, Weihai Hou Ren is incomparable, his Donglai newspaper has a monthly newspaper, which is given away for free on the first day of every month, and the ten-day newspaper is also half given away and half sold, and he is kind, I think this book is not expensive, after all, Hou Ye is doing a good deed, of course, it is impossible to be free......"
Everyone thought about it, and they laughed one after another, and then one by one they hurriedly intimidated to inquire about the location of the bookstore, and other cities and counties that were not in the five cities, whether they were from poor families or families, they sent people to the five cities, and brought enough money, as long as it was not too expensive, they bought as many books as they wanted.
West of Xiangyang City!
Inside the courtyard of a mansion!
Hu Zhao Hu Kongming asked a middle-aged man in front of him with a smile: "Decao, that Weihaihou's appetite is getting bigger and bigger, what do you think?" ”
Sima Hui replied calmly: "The world is changing, everything is impermanent, doesn't Kong Ming think that Weihaihou's matter is a good deed?" ”
