Chapter 301: Seeds

After all, the arrangement of spring ploughing, not just to do the next look, can be the wind and rain, the five grains are abundant, what persuasion of agriculture and mulberry, water conservancy, reclamation of wasteland and other things, also need the court to make overall arrangements, this kind of decree is very cumbersome and detailed, but it must not be ignored, and it is very important, the court and the court are indispensable to be busy for a while.

Chang'an has a population of nearly one million, such a big city, the people who live on arable land, only a minority, most of the people are the so-called city households, so they don't care much about what agriculture and water conservancy are, what is it like in peace, what is it like now, and what is most concerned about is still all kinds of household slang, gossip, and anecdotes.

Said that the child is living comfortably, the heart of gossip, said to grow gradually, this is an inevitable law, later generations have proved that the correct surname of this truth, there is no exception in ancient times, the streets and alleys, a wave of unsettled, a wave of rises, what is new, if you can't participate in it, say a few words, that is not to prove that you are not as knowledgeable as someone next door.

It can be seen that everyone has the heart of comparison, even the literati who boast of reading the books of the sages, and they can't avoid this kind of inferior root surname.

You must know that the imperial examination has only ended recently, and most of the candidates for the examination are either in love with the prosperity of the capital, or feel that they have no face to see the Jiangdong fathers and elders, and they have not returned to their hometowns and left...... Bear with it.

There is no way, who is inferior to others, literati are light, but they also have to be face-saving, after all, Lizi has already lost, no matter how shameless it is, what is the meaning of living, having said that, but I am really envious and jealous in my heart.

"Why ......?"

"Rely on others to be admitted to the Jinshi."

"Their jinshi has water, not real talent."

“…… That's right, what is there to be proud of, it's just that someone is behind it. ”

After all, everyone knows this kind of thing, and the imperial examination is not the only way out for scholars, so everyone's expectations for the fairness and justice of the imperial examination are not very high, not to mention that if they are talented, such as Han Rui, what else can they participate in, they can be directly recruited.

Therefore, some people privately indignant and cursed two sentences, just venting the evil anger, did not cause any turmoil, the attention is still on the Dengkelu, this matter, everyone has heard of it, and it would not have been so mindful, but the shape of Dengkelu is too advanced, the binding and printing are exquisite, take it in your hand, take a leisurely walk, all of a sudden, it has become the most trendy way to read, which makes people yearn for it, and naturally caused a sensation.

"Shopkeeper, there are books in the store...... Any book is fine, just give this book of filial piety...... It's not like this, forget it, it seems that you don't have it here, I'll go to another store to take a look. ”

At the beginning, the proprietor shopkeeper saw the business come to the door, naturally he was very happy, enthusiastic greeting, and had not yet sold a few of the latest books on the market, but he shook his head blankly under the white grabbing of the literati scholars, and watched the guests come and go, go and come, and finally did not even make a single business, empty joy.

A few days later, with the Zhuke and the first scholars, each of them also a copy of the Dengke record, this time, the others even more unable to sit still, carefully inquired, knowing that it is the production of the official carving workshop, ordinary people must not count on it, there are a few clever reactions, simply call friends, make up their own money, let the private carving workshop, print a few copies for themselves.

Loading the book only, there is no technical content at all, take the paper to print the text, and then fold it in half, stack it neatly, thread and nail it, you can, it is easy to say, it is not difficult to do, the craftsmen of the folk carving workshop, look at it at will, and they have agreed, take this job, but it will take some time to say, according to the books that need to be engraved, re-engraved and printed, after all, the previous printing and dyeing is a scroll, a roll is several feet long, and the pages of the book, the specifications do not match, it must be re-engraved.

In the era when there was no movable type printing, it was so troublesome, there was no way, everyone had to wait.

But I didn't think about it, some books such as the Book of Filial Piety, the Analects, the Rites, the Yi, the Spring and Autumn Period, the Zhuangzi, the Lao Tzu, and the Tao Te Ching began to circulate on a small scale, whether it was the style of the binding, or the position of the typesetting, the details of the table of contents, page numbers, and even the font...... As we all know, carving words on the wooden board is not easy, even if the most clever carver is the same text, it is impossible to carve a look every time.

Even Yu Shinan, Ouyang Xun such calligraphy everyone, do not dare to guarantee, the first second, and the next second, a word, exactly the same, unless it is a seal copy, thinking of this, the careful person smiled, laughing at himself cranky, this is originally a book made of engraving, the text is the same, it is also ...... Impossible things.

A book to look down, found the same text, there are more than 100, no matter how to compare, there is no difference at all, it is really miraculous, careful people sincerely sigh, for the craftsman of the lettering, admire the five bodies to the ground, but then check other scriptures, the same.

Coming to this conclusion, who knows, they have to be dumbfounded, dozens or hundreds, and it can also be explained that the lettering craftsman is the reincarnation of Lu Ban, with ingenuity and ingenuity, and the lettering is the same, but hundreds of thousands of words, it is not a miracle in the technical category, but a miracle.

Hearing this news, everyone definitely didn't believe it at first, and then verified, had to be impressed, and then curiosity rose, in this era, there is no shortage of boring and sophisticated people, specially inquired, but learned that there is no such means of extraordinary craftsmen, how is this possible, who believes, without this person, is it a ghost...... No, it's really God.

Gods, how can it be for a trivial thing to manifest a spirit, and after a lot of troubles, the ins and outs of the matter are finally clear, it turns out that the so-called master of his skills is really his person, but to everyone's surprise, this god man actually can't carve words, and he can't even hold a carving knife steadily, it's just an idea.

Movable type printing, this special term, appeared in front of the world for the first time, the principle is simple, easy to understand, get the explanation, everyone suddenly realized, clear whose invention it was, everyone was speechless, how is it him, a good school scrivener does not do, but changed to become a craftsman, it is really ...... Don't pay attention to this kind of dark heart, jealous villain, the capital Shilin Confucian, hearing the news, have praised and admired, the Tang Dynasty can not have any miraculous skills and silver ingenuity, important ministers in the court, interests and hobbies are very different, Ouyang Xun is a word idiot, he can't walk when he sees a good word, and he is reluctant to leave after observing a few days.

Wei Zheng understands winemaking, wine-making technology, the government and the opposition are famous, among which the two kinds of liquor and cuitao are the most rare, after Li Shimin tasted it, the inscription poem praised, the Yan brothers needless to say, can be called the ancient civil engineer, but did not see any sarcasm from everyone, and Han Rui's movable type printing, the most profitable, is not the shopkeeper of the carving workshop, but the world's readers.

No lettering, it can be reused, the cost has been reduced, the price of the book is naturally cheap, the good surname is circulating, and people with a long-term vision can naturally see this benefit, and they are extremely grateful to Han Rui for his kindness, but some people don't understand why Han Rui wants to do this kind of thing that is not beneficial.

"Why is it no good, it's rare that you haven't heard the voice of everyone competing for praise." Han Rui smiled: "This is a rare reputation, some people want it, but they can't ask for it." ”

"Isn't your reputation loud enough now?" Qian Feng said angrily: "Forget it, no matter, anyway, I have done what you have to do, and there are no other instructions." ”

Don't look at Qian Feng's unhappiness on the surface, in fact, he is very happy in his heart, it is thanks to his "careful" discovery that the truth of the matter will be clear.

"Don't you dare." Han Rui smiled and said, "Thank you for the help of the third brother, this matter is ...... That's it for now. ”

Oh, Qian Feng was a little disappointed, and he didn't inquire about Han Rui's purpose for doing this, he sat for a while, and left, not to attend any banquet party, but to review his homework, after all, the selection of the officials is coming, if it doesn't pass, wouldn't it become a laughing stock, and the future of the relationship is not sloppy.

Waving goodbye, waiting until Qian Feng is far away, Han Rui turned around and walked slowly, his thoughts were flying, the seeds were sown, as for whether they can blossom and bear fruit, it depends on the will of God, how to say that it is also one of the four great inventions, no matter how bad it is, it will change a little.

Han Rui was not sure, looking up, only to see Bo Xishan, the glow was gorgeous, and the white clouds were like fish scales, tomorrow should be a good weather with wind and beauty, and the sun would rise as usual.

Back in the house, the pretty Liuying hurriedly walked over and asked sweetly, "Lang Jun, it's time for you to rest." ”

"That's right." Han Rui nodded and asked with a smile, "What, where do you want to go?" ”

"It's not playing, it's serious." Liuying smiled and said, "Lady, or you say it." ”

"Who said it wasn't the same." Han Rui laughed and walked over with Liuying.

Slender jade fingers, pulling a silk thread, Zheng Nao asked for a charming white eye, and said angrily: "I didn't want to tell my husband, but she has a lot of tongues." ”

"Ah, there is something to hide from me, how can this work." Han Rui feigned anger, hugged Liuying, reached out and stroked her soft waist, and threatened: "Hurry up and recruit from the truth, otherwise you will be punished." ”

"Hee-hee...... Lang Jun, don't ......" A string of pearl-like laughter came from the cherry mouth of Liuying, the voice was soft and soft to the bone, and I don't know what Han Rui encountered, the little face immediately turned red and simple, and the beautiful eyes revealed a blurry wetness.
