Yu Dan was dragged by Ma Jun along the way. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

He happened to report to Liu Chan today on his recent progress, but he didn't expect to meet this "old" minister in the young master's mansion who was almost above everyone in the young master's mansion.

"Mr. Ma, why are you in such a hurry?" He asked suspiciously, already soaked with sweat.

"It's not my business, it's the young master who is looking for the two of us, but I think it's mostly looking for you, Mr. Yu." Ma Jun smiled, he was the first person in the house to meet Yu Dan, and the relationship was naturally a little closer.

Oh? Yu Dan was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a long time, he didn't know what could make Liu Chan call himself so eagerly.

He turned his head to look at the young man beside him and asked, "Little sir, I don't know what the young master called me to try?" ”

"Mr. Yu, don't call it that anymore, I can't wait for the young master's subordinates, the young master's students, Mr. Don't give up calling Deheng a little brother." Ma Jun smiled shyly and said, "Mr. Yu, look at this thing." ”

After that, he took out something from his sleeve, but it was a pencil he took from Liu Chan.

Yu Dan took it for a moment, then put it in the palm of his hand to examine it carefully, and even put it under his nose and sniffed, and then frowned.

"Is this thing ink?"

He asked as he picked up the pencil and swiped it lightly on the cover of his fingers, and sure enough, as the tip of the pen moved, a light ink-colored mark came into view.

At this moment, Yu Dan seemed to understand the reason why Liu Chan called him to come, and immediately asked: "Brother Deheng, the young master called me here for this thing?" ”

But who knows, Ma Jun beside him shook his head with a teasing smile, "No, no." After that, Yu Dan asked him how to smile and didn't speak.

At this time, in the study of the young master's mansion, Liu Chan was sitting at the desk and kept writing and drawing.

"Metallic lead and antimony, plus tin ......"

"But would the production process be too complicated? It's a pity that the method of making clay movable type has long been lost, and there is no such technology for the preparation of glue movable type at the moment......"

"In contrast, lead type is not only inexpensive, but also has a long life and good effect, and now it seems that it is really the first choice."

"As for the print edition...... Also with lead? Well, lead is still quite cheap compared to iron and copper......"

It didn't take long for a few pieces of bamboo paper in front of him to be full of scribbles, on which there were some deductions of smelting formulas and finalization of construction methods, in fact, most of his time was spent on deduction formulas, after all, these knowledge had been blurred in his memory.

"Young master, Mr. Ma and Mr. Yu are asking to see each other at the door." At this moment, a low shout came from outside the door, Liu Chan answered lightly, and continued to bow his head and write.

After Ma Jun and Yudan stood respectfully in the room, his last stroke was finished, and his face showed an excited expression.

"Young master."

Ma Jun Yudan bowed down at the same time and bowed, although they were also close ministers of Liu Chan, but the basic etiquette could not be lost.

Liu Chan looked at Ma Jun first, and the latter smiled, obviously not yet aware of any clues from the pencil. However, it is no wonder that he can't think of it, after all, although the pencil is called a pencil, it is actually not related to the metal lead half a copper coin, at most, the antimony used in it can become the common point between the two.

Liu Chan wasn't worried that they didn't know these things, these things that others might not know in this era, but anyone in the Young Lord's Mansion who had heard his lectures should have an impression.

And when he looked at Yu Dan, the latter took the initiative to speak.

"Young master, don't you want to do that ink engraving?"

Well? Liu Chan's eyes lit up, and he didn't expect that this was probably just a middle-aged man who Ma Jun told him a few words, and he even took the first step to guess his intentions, but this was not related to his experience in the paper industry for several years.

Yu Dan didn't react much, and Ma Jun beside him was wide-eyed at this time, with an incredible expression.

However, Yu Dan, who thought he had answered correctly, was still disappointed, because he shook his head when he saw Liu Chan sitting at the desk.

"The ink engraving is close, but it's not enough." Liu Chan smiled faintly, but he didn't want to sell Guan Zi anymore, and said: "The old solid plate engraving is actually a bit rigid. ”

He led the two of them out of the study, searched around, picked up a few stones in the garden, and then took out a pencil and wrote a few words on them.

"Look."

He arranged several stones in a certain order, and the words on them were combined into an idiom.

"Thing, double, work, half?" Yu Dan read it word by word, as if he felt that he had grasped something.

At this time, Liu Chan picked up the words "double" and "half" again, and switched the two positions.

At this time, Yu Dan suddenly said: "I know! Young master, you mean that most of the commonly used words are engraved in a single impression, and then combined together when printing, so that as long as there is a set of printing ink plates, then you can print most of the world's articles and ancient books! Yu Dan, who said this in an almost shouting voice, didn't notice how excited he was at this time.

But he wasn't the only one excited at this time.

"Yes, why didn't I expect it, in this way, coupled with the bamboo paper developed by Brother Yu that is very easy to write, the combination of the two is simply like a peerless blade meeting a scabbard that just fits, and the power exerted is definitely not as simple as the sum of the two. Those ancient books that are shelved can be printed on a large scale and quickly in this way, so that within a few generations, there will be no illiterate people in the world, and all of them will be reasonable! ”

Ma Jun seemed to be even more excited, his way of thinking, who had followed Liu Chan for a long time, was already a little different from the inherent thinking of this era, even if it was Yu Dan, he only thought that the two could be printed quickly, but he didn't think of the impact of this matter on the world.

In other words, in his thoughts, there is no idea of spreading books widely at all, and the stereotyped idea that only scholars can read the books of sages and sages, and only the descendants of generals can learn the art of war has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of this middle-aged man.

In fact, some officials in the Han Dynasty can't read much, after all, the recommendation system of the Han Dynasty is to give priority to filial piety.

However, Yu Dan quickly reacted.

He is not stupid, he naturally knows Ma Jun's thoughts and opinions, most of which are the ideas of the young master Liu Chan, after all, people in the house say that Ma Jun and the young master are becoming more and more alike.

And he, who took refuge in Liu Chan, must ensure that his concept of being an official does not deviate from the superior, so that he can stabilize his position.

Thinking of this, he immediately bowed his head and said: "Young master benevolence, you should really care about the world!" ”
