"Sir, I heard that you have a way to print books in large quantities, but I wonder what price you need to pay for this craft? I want to use this technique to print the Taoist scriptures. Du Zigong said.

The leakage of printing technology is not surprising, he has already printed several books before, and when others get their hands on it, they know that they are produced in batches.

And the printing technique is not very technical, and after knowing what is going on, you can find a few carpenters to figure it out.

He had long been prepared for the technology leak, and now he could exchange some benefits from Du Zigong, which was a surprise.

So he immediately said, "You're talking about printing, right?" It can be taught to you, and it doesn't cost you anything, just a small favor. ”

Du Zigong didn't expect it to go so smoothly, and said happily: "You say." ”

Wen Yi said: "Tell the world that printing was learned from the overseas Tang Kingdom. ”

"Tang Guo?"

"That's right, the country established by the remnants of the Han who went overseas to escape the war, the Tang Kingdom."

"Why?"

"Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, I am too weak now to be exposed to the eyes of the world. In the future, when dealing with the world, we will also ...... as Tang people."

Du Zigong immediately understood what he meant, and said with admiration: "Mr. Gao Zhishen admires it, okay, when the time comes, I will tell the world that this law comes from the Tang Kingdom." ”

"Sir, there should be the most shortage of books now, and I will use the power of the Five Bucket Rice Sect to collect books from all over the world for you as a reward for printing."

After that, Wen Yi told Du Zigong about the principle of engraving printing and some precautions.

This thing really doesn't have any technical content, and Du Zigong knew what was going on as soon as he heard it.

But the more this is the case, the more he admires Wen Yi's wisdom, although the printing technique is simple, but for so many years, why can't anyone else except him think of it? This is called great wisdom.

As for paper, papermaking has actually matured in this era, and although there is no way to make high-end paper, there is no problem with paper that can be used for writing in general.

The reason why bamboo and cloth have not been fully replaced is entirely because of poor communication and slow technology promotion.

It was not until 404 A.D. that Emperor Huan Xuan of the Eastern Jin Dynasty ordered the abolition of simple paper, and papermaking was fully promoted and popularized.

Although 404 is still fifty years away from the present, as a group of Taoist priests, the Wudou Mijiao must know where the paper quality is better, and even they have a paper-making workshop in their own hands.

After completing another transaction, both parties felt that they had gained a lot, and the conversation that followed was even more pleasant.

"By the way, this is what I said about the microscope, and I almost forgot about it this time."

Du Zigong's curiosity was immediately aroused, and he took the microscope and observed his hair under Wen Yi's guidance, and then exclaimed incredible.

After confirming the existence of the microcosm, Du Zigong was very excited, but soon lost his words:

"It's a pity that it appeared too late, and then I have to put all my mind on Taoist reform, I'm afraid I can't afford to study medical skills."

"Keeping him in my hands is a tyrannical thing, sir, find it a suitable owner again."

Wen Yidao: "You are wrong, the religious reform cannot be completed by one person, only by working together can Taoism flourish." ”

"And you've forgotten your old ways? Medical skills can also be used to promote Taoism, and if you think about it, what would happen if Taoism produced 180 divine doctors. ”

His old business is to use medical techniques to disguise himself and confuse believers.

Du Zigong slapped his forehead and said regretfully: "Look at me, I've been confused in my recent research on doctrines, and I almost forgot about it." ”

"I took the microscope, and I will also devote part of my time to studying medical skills in the future, please rest assured, sir."

Wen Yi was relieved at this time, if Du Zigong gave up medical research, the loss would be too great. The main reason is that there are no people under him who are proficient in medical skills, otherwise there would be no need to get hold of this sheep.

Du Zigong also said another news, at least three months, more than half a year, he will leave Lingnan and return to Huiji County.

However, he promised to pass on his medical skills to Wen Yi's Lang Zhong before leaving, and he would leave a few Lang Zhong to keep the hospital running.

Wen Yi had already prepared for this, and Du Zigong came here to avoid the limelight. Now that there has been a major breakthrough in Taoist innovation, he will naturally no longer hide from him.

After meeting Du Zigong, Wen Yi walked around the city a few times, and there were many more people in the city than before.

It's not all because of the newly migrated displaced people, but also a large part of the Lingnan Han people attracted by the siphon effect.

Now the reputation of Wen Dalangjun in Jin'an County, Jin'an County, Jin'an County has gradually spread, and more and more people are familiar with it, and the number of people seeking refuge in Jin'an County has gradually increased.

As long as it is not the kind of heinous crime, Wenyi will accept it, and more than 1,000 people have taken the initiative to move here in the past six months.

In addition to the Han Chinese, there were also many slang people who took the initiative to migrate to settle in the vicinity, and some came from far and wide to trade.

Trust was cultivated slowly, especially the free promotion of epidemic prevention manuals and the sending of people to guide the slang people's epidemic prevention knowledge, so that he gained the trust of most of the slang tribes.

Now more and more slang people are willing to deal with him.

Although Wenyi didn't dare to take out the blue and white porcelain, there was nothing wrong with ordinary brown porcelain and celadon, as well as pottery, ironware and other goods.

It's a pity that there is a lack of copper coins, and the transactions here are basically barter.

Wen Yi has no way to do this, he knows where there is a copper mine, but unfortunately there is a shortage of manpower and no ability to develop, so he can only watch.

However, he believed that it would not take long to solve part of the problem of money shortage - as long as he started trading with the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the foreign races in the north, there would be a steady flow of money and grain.

Later, he went to the camp of the sailor to meet He Fang and Liu Meng, and inspected his sailors. Praise everyone for their good training and encourage everyone to make persistent efforts.

Then he gave each of them a monocular, which caused the two of them to exclaim and bluntly say that this was an artifact.

After all this, he returned to Langhu.

The autumn harvest began in the blink of an eye in the blink of a month, and this year can be said to be smooth and rainy, ushering in a bumper harvest.

Although the yield per mu is only about 200 catties, more than 100,000 mu of land still contributed nearly 26 million catties of grain to him.

With so much food, even if three meals of rice a day are full, it is enough for 50,000 people to eat for a year.

With other foods, such as vegetables, meat, eggs, etc., it is enough to feed more than 100,000 people for a year.

This is not counting the harvest in Jin'an County and Dongning Island, which is enough to feed 200,000 people.

How many people does he have in his hands now? That's 50,000 when it's full.

So now he is a happy annoyance of a lot of food.

The end of the autumn harvest means that it is time to move.

Wen Yi first distributed enough grain to each family to eat for the next summer's harvest, and then distributed land seeds, farm tools, and other things to them.

Nearly a month had passed since he had finished all this, and at the end of October, he finally set foot on a big ship to Dongning Island.

A new era is coming.
