Chapter 300: Trends

"Brother You Shao, please take a look." Han Rui smiled and handed over the book casually.

Shangguan Yi took it, looked at it for a moment, and found that this kind of nailing, not only is it easy to store and take, but it is even more convenient to read page by page, a volume in hand, whether it is lying down, standing, or sitting, it can be easily read, unlike scrolls, which must be spread out in a fixed place to read comfortably.

After playing with it in his hand for a while, Shangguan Yi found the wonders of it, and immediately praised it, and a few colleagues next to him saw it, and hurriedly stepped forward, took a few books and books to watch, and after experiencing it, he also opened his mouth to praise.

However, Dengkelu was originally distributed to them, and Han Rui didn't let them wait longer, beckoned his colleagues, and each of them distributed a few copies, and after a while, in the hands of the new Kejinshi, everyone got a new and beautiful book in a novel form.

After all, after hundreds of years of accumulation, the book form that is most suitable for the habits of ancient scholars has conquered those Jinshi and praised them in an instant.

After some admiration, some Jinshi couldn't wait to read the content of the book carefully, although it was an ancient assembly book shape, but the table of contents, page numbers, etc., under the command of Han Rui, the carving workshop craftsmen added it, at the beginning, everyone was immersed in the content of Dengkelu, naturally did not pay attention to these details, and later found that it must be praised.

However, that's a later story, now, those Jinshi, carefully observed, found their name, inevitably a little intoxicated in their hearts, and then quickly browsed, turned to the end, poems and strategies on strategy, excerpts from this imperial examination, the best poems, fu, articles, ten each, marked the author, and accompanied by Chu Liang's comments.

As Han Rui expected before, seeing that there was no poetry article of his own, some Jinshi were naturally unconvinced, but when he found Chu Liang's comments, it was not good to say anything, it can be seen that no matter ancient or modern, the act of pulling the tiger's skin to make a drum is always not lacking in effect, in addition, the authority of ancient times is more credible and recognized by everyone, unlike later generations, which are basically shouted and beaten by everyone.

The Jinshi who can excerpt the poems and articles are naturally proud in their hearts, but they also know that they are self-conscious and will not show off nakedly, and some people who are more flexible in their minds suddenly said loudly: "Han Xiaoshu, do you have any extra books?" ”

The implication is that they want to have a few more copies, and the other Jinshi heard about it and woke up, yes, this one must be kept by themselves, but who has no relatives and friends at home, how can one be divided enough, reacted, everyone asked one after another, and some people simply said directly that they could spend money to buy.

Han Rui was stunned, but he didn't expect this situation, he was a little embarrassed, the appearance of everyone, as if what he was asking for was not just one or two books, that posture, each person had at least dozens of copies to satisfy, if the carving workshop was run by itself, it would definitely not be a problem, and even hoped that the more the better, the problem was that the carving workshop was directly under the jurisdiction of the government, and it was not operated externally, and it was useless to have money.

"Everyone, don't worry, we can't do this thing, we have to go back and ask for instructions." Shangguan Yi said with a smile: "It's really not good, you can find another carving workshop to print, and specify that you want to nail it like this, it's just a matter of waiting a little longer." ”

Everyone felt justified and didn't dwell on the matter, so they raised a toast to express their gratitude.

"Fu Jie, in addition to Dengkelu, there should also be other books printed in the carving workshop." Shangguan Yi smiled and said: "If you have a surplus, remember to leave us a few copies, the cost of paper and ink, we will pay for it ourselves, and it will not make it difficult for you." ”

"You Shao is very right." The others agreed: "We have heard that you went to the court to promote education, Your Majesty agreed, and the minister attached great importance to it, and ordered the ceremonial officials to screen the scriptures, that is, to engrave and print, and distribute the official schools of the prefectures and counties in the world." ”

When it comes to this matter, those secretaries and supervisors can't hide their envy, and according to the instructions, they will do things properly, as long as the Son of Heaven is satisfied and Fang Xuanling approves, there will be no chance of promotion in the future, thinking of those lucky people who have been appreciated by Li Shimin and have soared in a few years, how can I not feel a little sour in my heart.

Realizing that he had said the wrong thing, Shangguan Yi hurriedly remedied it, and said with a smile: "Fu Jie, these are not easy, extremely tedious, it is slow work, there is no one or two years, I am afraid it will not be completed, we must be patient and meticulous, but don't be busy printing books, but ignore the work of the secretary and supervisor, it is really negligent and wrong, don't blame us for not being emotional." ”

It seems to be too, taking care of both ends, it must be very busy, the scriptures are printed, I don't know when it is, some people have a balance in their hearts, good words and comfort, laughter and jokes.

They didn't seem to know about movable type printing, Han Rui blinked his eyes, and responded vaguely, and after a while, he was toasted by everyone in turn, and he also felt a little bit, so he naturally retreated temporarily, and came out of the side hall, through the zigzag corridor, to the secluded small hall, behind the screen, there were several wooden barrels for people to solve physiological problems.

After a while, Han Rui came out of the screen, there was a small well in front of the hall, and the plan next to it was a wooden basin, filled with clean water, soap, and towels were naturally not lacking, thoughtful, for the sake of the guests, it was indeed satisfying, and he secretly praised it in his heart, Han Rui turned around, and before the corridor of the Drunken Moon Pavilion, he met Ursar.

A little self-familiar, Ursar complained enthusiastically: "Master Han, what a coincidence, you are also here." ”

"It's a coincidence, it feels like Brother Usar is waiting here." Han Rui said with a smile, looked up at the layout of the restaurant, and thought in his heart, the proprietor is a businessman from the Western Regions, what a coincidence.

Pretending not to understand Han Rui's hints, just as he was joking, Usar said: "That's natural, if I had known in advance that Han Gongzi was coming, I would definitely be waiting here." ”

For Usar's cheekiness, Han Rui was very helpless, stretched out his hand not to hit the smiling person, for no reason, he couldn't turn his face, so he had to smile and said: "Today, I have a party here with a group of friends, if Brother Usar is fine, you can go to Tongle." ”

"Very good." Ursar's eyes lit up slightly, he couldn't ask for it, a businessman from the Western Regions, if he wants to gain a foothold in the capital, what he lacks the most must be all kinds of contacts, and now the opportunity is in front of him, how can he miss it, he doesn't have to think about it at all, so he directly agrees.

The two lifted the curtain and entered, Han Rui clapped his hands and smiled: "Everyone, pay attention, I will introduce you to a foreign friend, because of his admiration for the culture of the Central Plains, he did not hesitate to travel thousands of miles to come from afar, the Khotanese people, Wusar." ”

"Brother Wu, meet again." Shangguan Yi greeted with a smile, a friend of Wei Chi Yiseng, who had also met a few times later, was naturally more impressed.

Next to him, one or two officials are the same, I don't know the details of Usar, but I still remember his boldness and generosity, and greeted him kindly.

Those new science and technology scholars, seeing this situation, are also very face-saving, have said hello, Usar was in a good mood, happy eyebrows, took out the greatest enthusiasm, positive response, for this kind of communication scene, Usar is experienced, right hand pot, left hand cup, a circle, like a fish in water, chatting with everyone hotly, as if many years of not seeing friends.

Of course, everyone is just playing on the spot, and if they meet afterwards, it will definitely not be like this, after all, real friends, verbally, drink a few times, and call brothers and sisters, often can't count, with Usar's shrewdness, he naturally understands this truth, so after a few turns, he came to the circle of Han Rui and Shangguan Yi and others, instead of meeting new friends, it is better to concentrate on managing old friends.

Besides, it is still unknown how much friendship the so-called old friends have with each other.

After working hard in the suburbs for most of the day today, his body was exhausted, and he drank a lot of wine, Han Rui couldn't suppress the wine, and the feeling of dizziness slowly began to rise, and he hurriedly paid attention to moderation.

Everyone responded, after all, today is not a festival, there is a curfew at night, and you go back late, the patrolling military guards, regardless of whether you have a reputation or not, directly tie them up and hand them over to the Chang'an Yamen to deal with, not only to be punished, but also to report to the whole city, and all face is lost.

The crowd was chaotic, staggered out of the restaurant, said goodbye to each other, and left a few Jinshi to settle the bill, but they were surprised to find that the price of the catering today was actually a fraction of what it used to be, and the excuse was also far-fetched, and it was actually related to the Spring Festival ceremony, but as long as the money was less, no one would take it seriously, so naturally they ordered the servants to pay the bill, and then left happily.

Han Rui understood the reason a little, but he didn't break it, walked to Qian Feng's side, and asked with a smile: "Third brother, are you going out of the city, or do you want to go home with me?" ”

Since Han Rui moved to live in the city, Lishan's mansion has become Qian Feng's permanent residence, in fact, Han Rui means that he will go to the city to live together, but Qian Feng is not happy, Zhenzhen has words to show that he is unwilling to disturb the two-person world of Han Rui and Zheng Nao, in fact, the main reason is that he likes that kind of unrestrained talk, no matter how he tosses, no one cares.

"It's definitely out of town." Qian Feng said, seeing that everyone was almost gone, he hurriedly took out the Dengke record, and couldn't put it down, although there was no excerpt of his poetry and articles, but don't forget, the preface is from his handwriting, and you can see it at the beginning, which is more glorious.

Shaking his head slightly, Han Rui smiled and said, "Okay, didn't I show you the original before, the content in it is already ripe, what else is there to see." ”

"The problem is hand-copied, and it doesn't feel the same as what is printed." Qian Feng said, too lazy to pay attention to Han Rui, summoned the carriage, turned over, and walked away.

Han Rui felt that it was very reasonable, but he didn't take it to heart, and rode back with him, naturally he didn't expect it, and inadvertently, he triggered another trend.
