Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Shi Xun calculated carefully, close to 300 catties of high-grade hemp paper per month, 10 catties for his own use, and 10 catties for Wei Dan - he has a certain amount of manpower, so it is naturally not good to ask him for money again - the remaining 280 catties will not be able to be sold to retail investors, we have to find the big boss...... Well, we'll have to sell it to the public!

So a few days later, he hurried to Shangshutai with two catties of newly made high-grade hemp paper and a piece of Wei Dan's homemade ink—according to Cao Cao, Xun Wenruo had used paper. Sure enough, Xun Yu was very happy when he saw the new paper, and when he asked clearly, it was made by Xun's own family, and he immediately spoke: "There are three catties left in the monthly payment." "It's Xunxin who said that you are really a little child-" Taichung Kumon, why not use paper instead of bamboo, it is very light. ”

Xun Yu groaned slightly, then picked up the pen and wrote a few words on the paper, put down the pen, and sighed slightly: "Paper is a good thing, but it's a pity...... It is inconvenient to delete. "If you make a mistake on bamboo or wood, you can scrape it off with a knife at any time, and if you make a mistake on paper, you can only write ink circles - there is no correction liquid in these years. Shi Xun confidently reminded him: "The official documents of the imperial court, who allows you to delete them at will?" "It is better that the official documents that have been finalized cannot be deleted, so that someone will not take the opportunity to falsify them.

Xun Yu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly gave up his hand: "What Hongfu said is true." In this case, you can pay 30 catties for Taichung every month, and try it first. "Yes Xun couldn't help but be disappointed, and said that you Xun Lingjun is used to being frugal and simple, and you are too shrunk, right? is so reluctant to spend even public funds......

He knew that Xun Yuruo had made up his mind, so he was unconvinced, so he had to retreat stupidly, and then think about it, which other yamen could sell - I originally thought that the Shangshutai alone would be able to eat all my inventory. Back in the house, Wei Dan came over to report: "The proofreading of the "Book of Shang" has been completed. The Son of Heaven is the Emperor. Zhong Yushi wanted to copy it himself. "Yes Xun listened. I can't help but light up - by the way, and Lantai!

He knew that Wei Dan and Zhong Xuan had recently sympathized with each other because of calligraphy, and they were quite close, so he simply handed over the matter of selling paper to the Imperial History Observatory to General Wei Zhong. A few days later, Wei Dan came to report that Zhong Xuan had promised to buy 80 catties of paper at public expense every month and 15 catties of paper from private. It was Xun Xin who said Look, Zhong Yuanchang has a lot of appetite than Xun Wenruo - although it is not enough to meet my expectations......

Alas. It's not so easy for new products to open up the market.

There are still one hundred and fifty pounds of paper left, what should I do? Where to sell?

Speaking of looking for Xun Yu and Zhong Xuan, half of it is based on friendship, and he is not familiar enough with the chief officials of other yamen - Kong Rong has also been removed from the post of Shaofu and turned into a doctor in Taizhong - direct door-to-door sales, which is a loss of his identity as a 2,000 stone, after all, the Han Dynasty is also a light business society. Send a guest out of the horse, and the other party may not be willing to take care of it. What to do? Who else can I look for?

Come and think about it. Suddenly, he thought of a place again, and he couldn't help but slap his hands and smile. Cao Miao, who came into the house to urge her husband to eat, was taken aback.

Looking at the sun in April, it is the period of Xun Xiu, and he was invited to Taixue to preach.

At this time, in Xuchang Taixue, there have been 4,000 Taixue students, 17 doctors of the Five Classics, and 8 additional management personnel, compared with the 30,000 people in Luoyang Taixue when Emperor Ling, the gap is still very large. However, considering that it took only a year to complete the school, and that more than two-thirds of the world's territory and population were not under the control of the imperial court, the princes of all walks of life often intentionally or unintentionally prevented the children of scholars from going to Beijing to study (for example, Liu Biao), this result was already quite gratifying.

The newly renovated Xudu City imitates the old capital Luoyang, but it is only specific and subtle. The original Luoyang Taixue was outside the Kaiyang Gate on the east side of the South City, and now Xuchang Taixue is outside the Gate on the south side of the West City. Shixun dressed up early in the morning, went by car, first ran to Shijing to take a look, secretly sighed and regretted that he couldn't charge tickets, and then turned to the main entrance.

The doctor's sacrificial wine is equivalent to the future president of the university Xu Ci personally came to the door to greet him. Although Zhilu has a high rank (the doctor's sacrificial wine rank is 600 stones), the two belong to the same family, so they are a little humble and courteous. When he followed Xu Ci into the gate of Taixue, he couldn't help but sigh: In my previous life, I could be regarded as a visiting professor at the university...... In fact, I didn't even get into graduate school, because I had to pass level 6 in English......

There are few doctors and many students in Taixue, so they can't be taught at all - you must know that when Emperor Zhao of the Western Han Dynasty, there were ten doctors and only fifty doctoral disciples (Tai students), which is simply not a university, it is a small graduate school - not only encourages self-study, but even if it is taught, it is all big courses. But the old self-study is not successful, if you want to study by yourself, I will study at home, why do you want to run over and let your public earn room and board? Therefore, some officials and celebrities are often hired to preach temporarily.

Xu Ci let Shixun into a classroom - it was said to be a classroom, but it was actually Xuan, with a wall on one side and ventilation on three sides. On the side of the wall, there are two bamboo mats, and there are a few tables, which are sitting on Xu Ci, who is in charge of Xun and the supervisor, and there are also forty straw mats in the room, which can seat one hundred and twenty students. Of course, the big class will not only be these students, Shi Xun took a look, there were no less than three or four hundred people sitting densely outside Xuan, of course, then he had to prepare his own straw mats, he saw that two came late, the straw mats were still sandwiched under the armpits, and he didn't find a suitable place to spread it.

When they saw the gentleman come in, all the students stood up and bowed. Shi Xun returned the salute and sat down side by side with Xu Ci, Zhuge Jin ran up and offered a glass of water.

Today is Xun in this class, Zhuge Jin is an assistant, he has to help maintain class order, serve tea and water, clean up lesson plans or something, if the weather is hot, maybe he will have to help the teacher fan. Why did you pick Zhuge Jin? Because Taixue's room and board are not free, of course the children of families like Sima Fu can afford it, and Zhuge Jin and his ilk are stretched, so they have to do odd jobs in their spare time, and under normal circumstances, they are attached to an official, as a guest or clerk, Zhuge Jin has been helping at home for the past few months.

Shi Xun sat in the class, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud - it was not once or twice that Xu Ci and others invited him to give a lecture, but Shi Xun himself also wanted to borrow the platform of Taixue, one to promote his new doctrine, and the other to collect some disciples, but he was always lazy and could drag it out. This time, after the papermaking workshop was up. Xu Ci came to invite again. Jihoon finally agreed. Because he thought that Taixue was a good place to sell paper. Think about it, even if each student uses one piece of paper a day, 4,000 students are 80 pounds smaller!

So after looking around at everyone, after everyone sat down and the noise gradually stopped, Shixun's first action was to take out a notebook from his arms and slap it on the case with a "pop".

Some students wonder, what is this? It is said that there are not many people who use paper these days. But there are very few people who don't know about paper, just a little, the big guys are like using wooden sticks, one counts as one, and I never thought of nailing up paper to make books. At the moment, they couldn't help whispering and talking, only Zhuge Jin stroked his beard and smiled-he had seen this thing, he knew what it was.

After he planned to learn how to sell paper, he began to study the practice of books. First, he chose the shortest text of the "Book of Filial Piety" among the scriptures and biography—a total of less than 2,000 words—for the disciples to copy. Before transcribing. He first folded the whole sheet of paper from the middle, and then copied a total of sixteen sheets of paper. It is like a thread-bound book in later generations, and it is nailed with fine hemp rope. It's just that he doesn't have enough thick paper on hand to make the cover, so after thinking about it, let's just use two ordinary blank sheets of paper as the cover for the time being.

Immediately Xu Ci came to the door to invite, and Shi Xun said, I will talk about the "Book of Filial Piety". Turning his head, he read through the "Book of Filial Piety" and wrote down the lesson plan in the wide space between the lines in the original plan. I was going to give a lecture on this day, and Zhuge Jin came to the house early in the morning, planning to carry the information for Mr. - under normal circumstances, at least one or two bamboo slips - but Xun just put the book in his arms, saving the big guys.

Zhuge Jin praised on the spot: "The ingenuity in the service is really useful." "He's really not making a sycophant, it's really heartfelt.

This time, in front of hundreds of students, Shi Xun took out the first children's book that opened the world, and then turned the first page very skillfully, wiped his hands up and down, flattened it, and began to preach: "The Book of Filial Piety opens with a clear meaning, and the master said: 'Husband filial piety, the foundation of virtue, and the place of teaching is also ......'"

But after only reading the original text, he stopped, raised his head and looked around at the students again, and changed his words: "I was in Xiangyang before, Liu Jingsheng feasted in the school palace, making it difficult for Song Zhongzi, Xie Wenyi and others, Xun Naiyun: 'Confucianism is to use it for work, and the teacher is to seek truth for his job. Today, the child is covered with dust, the Central Plains is swinging, the first and second teachers are old in the chapters and sentences, and the students and young people should apply what they have learned, and they will be able to prosper the country and the country. Therefore, today I will not teach you to find chapters and excerpts, but to teach you the righteousness of the world!

"What is the righteousness? Our dynasty rules the world with filial piety, and filial piety is the foundation of virtue, that is, the end of righteousness. People are born and raised by relatives, so they know that they love their relatives, which is filial piety, and they are the sons who say: 'Filial piety begins with relatives.' Mencius Naiyun: "The old and the old, the young and the young." It is the prophet who loves his family, and then he loves his neighbor, and he loves his family, and he loves his country. The benevolent love others, and the loyal love the king, all of which start from filial piety.

"However, love is not the origin of people, filial piety is also born from teaching, and if the son does not teach, he does not know filial piety, does not know filial piety, but does not know loyalty. Filial piety to relatives, and not necessarily love in the family, and in the king, as for the country, must be taught first and then know what is born ......"

In his previous life, he also read a lot of online articles, and many protagonists traveled to ancient times, in order to reverse the traditional thinking and strive to pull China onto the road of modernization, they talked to the ancients about the truth when they opened their mouths, and they could really bluff the ancients into being stunned. Whenever he saw this kind of bridge, he laughed first, and then abandoned the book. People's thinking is born because of the social environment, but also restricted by the social environment, in a traditional small peasant society, under the form of small government, you talk to people about democracy and freedom, isn't that nonsense? Can they understand it?

Of course, it's not that you can only go with the flow, but you can't move forward, the problem is that you have to eat one bite at a time, Ruth has to go step by step, and if you cross too big, you will inevitably pull the egg, and you may tear the egg. So after Xun wore to this life, he didn't dare to talk to others about the previous great truths at the beginning, and when he finally had a certain reputation in Confucianism, he could even run Taixue to be a visiting professor, and finally we could engage in some ideological enlightenment, but that can't be delusional to span two thousand years in one step.

Just like his above paragraph, on the surface, it sounds no different from the mainstream trend of thought of this era, but in fact, a lot of private goods have been sandwiched. (To be continued!)
