Fu San really wanted to help Ye Hua, so she didn't send the money out, so she went to buy land, but after selling it, Fu San found that her assets not only did not decrease, but also increased a lot.

She still doesn't understand what wealth appreciation is, but according to her intuition, she took out 500,000 guan, and now the money is still 260,000 guan, and the land price is estimated to be almost 500,000 guan, Fu San thinks that at least half of Ye Hua's land must be given to it, so as not to take advantage.

Ye Hua's thinking is different, emergency relief is not to help the poor, the land is in his hand, it can't be turned into cash and has no value, Fu San has helped himself a lot, and he should earn as much as he wants.

What's more, if a big man asks for a little girl's property, wouldn't he become a soft eater, and our champion Hou can't do it!

"You don't have to worry about me." Ye Huahao said angrily: "I have a lot of power in my hands now, so much land, I can increase the price of whatever I want, and I can sell as many houses as I want!" The lifeblood of those people is in my hands, and if I still can't make money, I'll be a pig's head! ”

Fu San didn't understand what Ye Hua meant, but she felt that Ye Hua, who was full of confidence, was very good-looking, even if it was a pig's head, it was also a beautiful pig's head!

"Then will you be short of money in the future?" She asked with concern.

Ye Hua shrugged his shoulders and replied helplessly, "It's hard to say, it mainly depends on Your Majesty, as well as your brother-in-law, as long as you don't find me something to do and cause trouble, I can live well!" ”

"Oh!"

Fu San nodded seriously, she felt that she had to go to the eldest sister to talk about it, take care of her brother-in-law, and she couldn't bully honest people!

Maybe it was because the pillow wind was useful, Ye Hua's life was really a lot easier, Chai Rong didn't trouble him, but let him concentrate on disaster relief and rebuild Kaifeng.

The so-called everything is difficult at the beginning, Ye Hua has already established the rules and regulations, and the rest will naturally be done, and there is no shortage of capable officials in Da Zhou.

Zhao Pu, the deputy envoy of the Third Division, Dou Wei, the judge of Kaifeng Prefecture, assisted Ye Hua in two people, and Shen Yilun also returned to the capital from Huainan, and he was responsible for supervising the construction of the school.

With these people here, Ye Hua was happy to hide.

In fact, he didn't have much to do, no, some time ago, he had to compile textbooks, Ye Hua spent a lot of effort, and he made two books, one is arithmetic and the other is common sense.

In arithmetic, he referred to ancient books such as "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", but most of these ancient books were aimed at practical problems, almost some booklets of practical problems, and lacked rigorous and systematic logical reasoning. Ye Hua did a lot of combing, and then combined with the experience of later generations, he used a step-by-step method to compile the textbooks before the third grade.

The general knowledge part is very rich, including astronomy and geography, ancient stories, physics and chemistry, life experience, medical first aid, plants and animals...... Ye Hua believes that in order to truly replace Confucianism and classics, we must first open our eyes and let students care about more things, not always in benevolence, righteousness, heart, Tao, and qi...... These mystical and mysterious concepts are swirling, and only when you have more knowledge will naturally think.

And if you think about it too much, the set of pan-moralized Confucian ideas will naturally be impacted.

It's a process of accumulation and impatience.

Ye Hua scored 70 points on the textbook he compiled and was able to pass the grade.

The next thing is to print the textbooks, after all, the school has already begun to operate, and it is not possible to do without textbooks.

Ye Hua asked several bookstores in Kaifeng, and they gave a price of 1 per book, and Ye Hua was very annoyed when he found out! One book is one book, three books for primary school students in a semester, and six books a year, which is six books.

Counting pen, ink, paper, inkstone, clothes and shoes, as well as room and board expenses, extracurricular activities, a year, I am afraid that it will take 10 times, if there are several children in the family, how can ordinary people afford it?

Ye Hua found the bookstore, the boss looked bitter, they really didn't want much, if Hou Ye wanted to buy the Analects of Mencius, they could sell it to Hou Ye for 100 Wen, just printing a new set of books, it was so expensive!

They need to re-engrave from scratch, page by page, and the material alone is very expensive, which is a delicate job, and if you make a slight mistake, you have to start all over again.

Ye Hua was in a hurry, and he printed two books again, and they needed to find all the skilled craftsmen to work day and night. Converted, a consistent money, really did not take advantage.

This is the problem with engraving printing, and they also told Ye Hua that if they want to see the finished book, they will have to wait for 5 months. There are so many carvers, there is no hurry.

Ye Hua was patient, listened to the boss's complaints, didn't say anything, and turned to leave...... He had already made up his mind to get movable type printing as soon as possible.

Print your own book!

Ye Hua wanted to build a bookstore, Fu San soon knew, and there was a place to use it again, so he came to find it, "Do you want me to help?" ”

She was holding a treasure box in her arms, and her eyes were crooked into crescent moons, like a little rich woman.

Ye Hua also smiled, don't say it, when it comes to cash, he really doesn't have much Fu San.

"Count the shares, take 30,000 yuan first, and I'll give you fifty percent of the shares!"

Xiao Nizi didn't hesitate to take out the money, which was really arrogant.

took other people's money, Ye Hua can't let Xiao Nizi's money go down the drain! He quickly found a group of craftsmen, told them his idea, and asked them to make movable type out of clay.

According to Ye Hua's requirements, the craftsmen did not have three days of hard work to make movable type.

Fu San looked at it curiously, she took the seal-like movable type in her hand, pressed it the white and tender skin, and there were dents, Xiao Nizi saw that there was ink, and simply stained it with ink, ravaging the back of her hand, and it was black after a while, and she was quite happy.

But when Ye Hua saw these movable words, he kept frowning, he tried to arrange a few sentences and printed them on paper, but the result was deep and shallow, and the effect was surprisingly poor!

No kidding, printing is one of the four great inventions, and movable type printing is a feat of genius.

Ye Hua picked up a few movable words, compared them carefully, and gradually, he found a problem...... Fu San saw that Ye Hua was bored and looked very unhappy, so she also came over.

"Something is wrong?"

"Well, I've made things simpler, but in fact, movable type printing and engraving are no different."

Ye Hua was suddenly a little depressed...... The engraving plate should be carved on the wooden board one by one, one page at a time, and there is no room for the slightest mistake. But in fact, movable type printing also needs to be carved out word by word, and the amount of work is not small.

And there are a large number of Chinese characters, plus there are repetitions, so if you want to use movable type printing, you must first make hundreds of thousands of movable type ......, after the appearance of movable type printing, there was once a Fujian Lin Chunqi took 21 years, consumed more than 200,000 taels of silver, only to engrave more than 400,000 large and small italic copper movable type, the cost is huge, it can be seen.

Of course, such a large amount cannot be completed by a craftsman, and it even takes many batches and several years...... Different craftsmen, different batches, will inevitably have different fonts and different sizes.

It is strange to put such movable type together and use it to print books, and it can be printed with fine products.

Ye Hua figured it out, no wonder movable type printing was invented since the Northern Song Dynasty, but it has not occupied the mainstream, and the problem of movable type printing is indeed too big.

Of course, in the area of alphabet writing, the situation is much better, 26 letters, plus 52 capitals, no matter how you arrange it, it is countless times less difficult, and it is not surprising that it shines in their hands.

Ye Hua carefully estimated that the use of movable type can indeed reduce costs, but it can't be reduced too much, and it will sacrifice quality!

The ancients have already summed up, "if it is not easy to print two or three copies, if it is printed tens of hundreds of thousands of copies, it will be extremely fast", the cost will be reduced, and the advantages of movable type printing will be highlighted.

However, the number of most books printed in ancient China is not much, and the subsets of scriptures and histories such as the Four Books and the Five Classics, which are in high demand, have remained unchanged for thousands of years, and the use of engraving printing is relatively convenient and fast, and it can be engraved at one time and retained on the whole page, which can be printed repeatedly. In order to pursue profits and strive to reduce costs, bookstores are reluctant to abandon the original traditional engraving process and adopt the new technology of movable type printing.

Some literati were also willing to spend time copying books by hand, which reduced the demand for movable type printing.

All in all, there are complex reasons why movable type printing has been given a cold shoulder.

Isn't there the best of both worlds?

Yes!

That is, to promote the whole country, set up an official bookstore, establish a standardized font library, and then unify the casting of movable type to ensure that the size of the font is consistent.

Then there is the mass printing, such as new textbooks, which is very suitable for this method.

Ye Huaxing rushed to find Wang Pu, Wang Xianggong also compiled the textbook with Ye Hua, and had the same confusion, after listening to Ye Hua, he nodded frequently, and finally laughed loudly, laughing heartily!

"Okay, that's a good idea!"

How could Wang Pu be so happy?

Didn't he discuss with Ye Hua to establish an official school! Do you want to grasp the power of public opinion!

The success of knowledge is closely related to the degree of circulation.

Those Confucian classics have gone through more than a thousand years, and the market is full of printed editions, and the literati have many manuscripts hidden in their homes.

Ye Hua mentioned movable type printing, and mentioned the unified font library and unified printing...... How could these things not touch Wang Pu's heart! He clearly saw the hope that the publishing power would return to the imperial court.

It's done!

"Champion Hou, the old man supports it, I will write to Your Majesty, and I think Your Majesty will agree." Wang Pu asked again: "Do you have a charter for that movable type production?" ”

"Yes, I'm going to make it in the Champion Workshop, show the attitude of making weapons, and be sure to do a good job of movable type!"

"That's great!"

Wang Pu thought for a while, and said: "There is one thing left, that is, this font, how to do it?" ”

"Printing, of course, you have to use a regular script, Wang Xianggong's calligraphy is so good, you can write it!" Ye Hua suggested.

Wang Pu hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, no, the old man is good at calligraphy and cursive writing, and he really can't write regular script, so he will laugh and be generous!" How about I recommend someone to you? ”

"Who?"

"Feng Dao, Master Feng! His Xiaokai is unique in the world, unmatched! ”
