Chapter 207: The Printing House

Ye He stuffed the money into Liu Man'er's hand and said: "In the future, we will save up the money for embroidering the handkerchief, this money is sold by my sister-in-law's embroidery, or sister-in-law, you can put it away." ”

"Then I'll put it away, it just so happens that I have a business that costs money." Liu Man'er thought of her movable type printing, and still received the money into her arms.

"My sister-in-law can come to us if she is short of money, and the two of us have saved a lot of money recently." Ye He said.

Liu Man'er shook her head helplessly when she heard this, and said: "Okay, you are young, don't always think about money, money, go wash your face, write in the afternoon, recently you two have been busy embroidering handkerchiefs, you haven't played much, and your studies have been delayed, and your sister-in-law looks at the needle in your hand and feels distressed." ”

"What are we, my sister-in-law is not the same, she has a big belly and writes articles every day." Ye He stepped forward, touched Liu Man'er's big belly, and said, "This nephew will definitely be a little genius when he is born in the future." ”

Liu Man'er said: "Maybe this baby is a girl." ”

"It must be a great beauty." Ye He's mouth was like being smeared with honey, and the words of Liu Man'er were sweet in her heart.

Pregnant in October, she counts the days, and it is about to reach the due date, to be honest, I am a little apprehensive in my heart, some worries, but more is still sweet, this kind of motherhood is complicated, but fortunately she is busy all day now, but there is no time to think about anything else.

But every time I think of the child in my belly, my heart is still very sweet.

Sometimes when I feel the child's positive fetal movement, I am overjoyed, and suddenly I become more in awe of life, and I feel that this life is incomparably magical.

"Come, Xiaohe, sing a song to your little nephew." When Liu Man'er heard Ye He's words, she suddenly remembered prenatal education, and then she remembered that she had been busy every day recently, and she hadn't talked to her children well.

"Ah, I sing?" Ye He helped Liu Man'er to walk towards the hall, and said, "Where can I sing, otherwise sister-in-law, you can sing a song to me, I heard my sister-in-law sing last time, but it is good." ”

"When have I ever sung?" Liu Man'er said puzzled, she had the impression that she had never sung.

"Didn't you hum two sentences last time?" Ye He said: "I just hope for something, and I can do something about that song, it's very good." ”

When Liu Man'er heard Ye He say this, she added: "I just hope to return to the field to relieve my armor, and I can also get back the tea you made." ”

"Yes, it's this song, it's good, can you sing it again?" Ye He said.

"If you don't sing, you forgot the words." Liu Man'er shook her head, but she was unwilling to fulfill Ye He's wish.

"Okay." Seeing that Liu Man'er was unwilling, Ye He had no choice but to stomp his feet, follow behind Liu Man'er, and asked, "Sister-in-law, did you write that book today?" ”

"I didn't write it." Liu Man'er shook her head, Ye He's mouth flattened, and seeing her disappointed look, Liu Man'er stopped teasing her, and said, "Okay, I'll write it once, you can go and see it." ”

"Okay, I'll go." Ye He heard Liu Man'er say that she had written it once, and her heart was itching, so she immediately rushed to the study, although Cao'er didn't like to talk, but after saying hello to Liu Man'er, she also hurriedly followed behind Ye He.

"Man'er, what kind of Raushzi script did you write, is it really so good-looking? Look at this group of children to fascination. "Fang really didn't understand them.

"Of course it's good-looking, you can go to my teahouse and listen to it twice." Liu Man'er said with a smile: "When the time comes, I will ask Uncle Han to leave you a private seat." ”

"If you say that, then I have a chance to really go over and listen." Fang Shi said: "But not now, now I have to prepare some small clothes and shoes, waiting for my grandson to be born." ”

Hearing Fang's words, Liu Man'er bowed her head deeply and said, "These things are bothering my mother, and my mother is not doing anything at all, and I didn't even think of preparing for these." ”

"You've been too busy this day, leave these things to me." Fang patted Liu Man'er's hand, Liu Man'er nodded helplessly, but she made up her mind to take some time to make clothes for the child tonight, she was also her own child, she thought about making money all day long, and she didn't even think of making clothes for the child at all, it was really a dereliction of duty.

In the evening, she wrote a notebook again, and Liu Man'er went back to the room early to rest, she found needlework, scissors and fabric, and planned to make a dress for the unborn child.

This child's clothes are not difficult to make, Liu Man'er is tightly sewn under the light, and there is also two more tenderness in her heart.

By the time a piece of clothing was ready, it was already midnight, and the loud gongs and drums were heard far away in the quiet night sky.

The silent night, the yellowish light, and a gust of wind drifted in through the open window, blowing a little cool on the person's body.

Liu Man'er put away the needle and thread at hand, sat on the edge of the bed and touched her stomach, and couldn't help but feel a little more melancholy, Ye Yuan, Ye Yuan, are you okay, if you are really fine, just appear in front of me quickly, okay? It's really not good, and it's good to be able to receive your words.

If you do die, what should I do? If you still or, why not come to me? You know, I miss you.

In ten and a half days, our child should be born, won't you come and take a look?

The red candle at the head of the bed burned most of it, making a "crackling" sound, and then shook it twice, it burned to the head, and in the dark, Liu Man'er didn't bother to light the lamp again, although she couldn't sleep, but she still lay on the bed with clothes.

The road is long, Sijun is in the distance, the white horse is galloping, the stars are mighty, and the heart is healing.

Han Shixin has been busy looking for someone to engrave these days, and is busy looking for a place to use it as a printing house, which can be described as very busy, Liu Man'er doesn't want to think about anything else every day, but every morning he takes time out to write a book, and in the afternoon he walks around the courtyard, and he also writes books at night, and the time of the day passes quickly.

However, in a few days, the Korean style new printing embryo was ready, and the word embryo was put into the porcelain kiln that had been prepared a long time ago, and the Korean style new was also relieved.

The first time to do such a thing, Han Shixin was still very happy, guarding the porcelain kiln alone, thinking about the printing workshop, and he was a little excited in his heart.

Who would have thought that this printing would be able to do this? At that time, as long as the version is arranged, he only needs to brush the things that others have worked hard to copy, and it will be good, and the speed is not known how many times faster, and he is happy to think about it.

While waiting for this porcelain kiln, he went to be busy with the printing workshop in the city, and the place was also rented, and he invited two old workers in the printing room, and some of the tools needed were also bought, just waiting for these sets of printing embryos to be in place, and then you can start printing.

If this thing goes well, presumably the two thousand taels of silver don't have to worry at all.

Think about it, how expensive are books sold in this era, and your own printing workshop can print many copies at once, but you are afraid that you won't make money?

Han Shixin knows that Liu Man'er is not a mean person, if he can really make money, he must not treat himself badly, not to mention, his whole family's deed of sale is with Liu Man'er, if Liu Man'er is unlucky, his family will not be much better, he only prays for everything to go well.

These days have been busy all day long, and finally it is the day of opening the kiln, after opening the kiln, pull out these word embryos to check, although there are many damaged, but most of the printed embryos are good, white small squares, a light knock, is a crisp sound, Korean style new has been eager to put them into use.

With a horse-drawn carriage, all these prints were pulled back, and the book-sized templates that were made by the Korean style had been carefully designed, these prints were just stuck on this template, brushed with a layer of ink, and printed on the paper, and the clear handwriting appeared on the white paper.

"It worked." At this moment, Han Shixin's face couldn't help but smile.

As for the two printing masters he invited, he opened his mouth wide and said: "It's really amazing, I have never seen anyone print in this way, movable type printing, it is really simple and convenient." ”

Listening to their tone, Han Shixin also revealed a little bit of tone with them before.

"Of course." Han Shixin smiled slightly, and his words unconsciously brought two points of sharpness: "The two of you will be the old team of our printing workshop in the future, and I invite the two of them to be recommended by others, I believe in the character of the two, please don't leak out of this movable type printing thing!" ”

"Of course, we know how important it is!" The two printers hurriedly said.

"That's good, if there is no problem with the two masters, each of these three books should be printed in five hundred copies for me." Han Shixin took out the book that Liu Man'er gave him and said: "This is the latest popular book in the county, Journey to the West, if you print it, you can also have a look, it's really cheap for you." ”

"Then thank you, the owner, when will you want these five hundred books?" One of the older printers took the book and asked.

"The sooner the better." Han Shixin said: "Our printing workshop is small now, but it will definitely get bigger and bigger in the future, so the work efficiency should also be improved, these three volumes are not thick, five hundred copies, seven days should be able to complete." ”

"This, we still have to try, after all, although this movable type printing is convenient, but after all, it will take some time to disassemble." Another printing master said.

"One of you specializes in typesetting and the other specializes in printing, so the division of labor and cooperation will definitely save a lot of time." Han Shixin has now learned to draw big cakes for others, he said: "The two of them do it steadfastly, and they will definitely not be able to treat the two of them in the future, and if they need to recruit people, they can recruit them, as long as they are practical and trustworthy." ”

"This is natural." The two printers looked at each other and were eager to try the new technology.

Han Shixin didn't bother when he saw the two of them like this, and after looking around at the small workshop where there were only two people at the moment, he went home and went back to Liu Man'er.
