Zhao Xing has been in a good mood these days, and he has held a banquet in the city lord's mansion to thank his relatives and friends who have come to congratulate him in the past few days. (_The Wenchen generals who followed Zhao Xing were also relieved, and they were no longer worried that Zhao Xing's first male was born to Myolie Wu, a foreign-born NV son, which was really a happy situation.)

Why did the staff and generals have to worry about who Zhao Xing's first male was was? It was not because of the difference between Hu and Han. Although no one has said anything about the civil and military system of the state now, they all know in their hearts that Zhao Xing's plans are not small, and people with a little political sense can see Zhao Xing's ambition to get involved in the world.

Zhao Xing has descendants, which can unite and boost the confidence and morale of the Bingzhou Group. To put it mildly, in case Zhao Xing has three longs and two shorts, Zhao Xing's descendants can still dominate one side and even peep into the world with the assistance of several uncles and uncles, plus Jia Xu, Tian Feng and Guo Jia and others.

Zhao Xing's first son was burdened with the expectations and ideals of the Bingzhou lineage, if Zhao Xing was born to a son of a different race, how could he convince the public? Fortunately, this problem that worried everyone was not born, and the generals naturally breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, made up their minds, and followed Zhao Xing to fight for the world more steadfastly.

Zhao Xing suddenly remembered a question, he remembered the bet he made with Xu Wanlin some time ago. It's really a god, how could Xu Wanlin predict the male NV? Although he was puzzled in his heart, Zhao Xing always held back and didn't ask his sister-in-law, he knew that as soon as he asked, he admitted that he lost the gamble, in case the sister-in-law asked him to sleep in the same room with her at night in public, it would be too shameless.

Putting aside some miscellaneous ideas, Zhao Xing was invited to a place called "Scientific Research Center" by several masters of the Equipment Research Institute.

These two things that Zhao Xing instructed the masters to study were very common in later generations, that is, to improve the production method of Caihou paper and introduce the technique of movable type typesetting and printing. But in this life, it is an earth-shattering Ming Dynasty, once it faces the society, it is enough to promote and change the pace of the Han nation.

Improving papermaking requires a lot of wood and high-temperature cooking, both of which are not lacking in the state. The lush Taihang Mountains provide a steady supply of timber, and the abundant coal and stone in the state are the best fuel for heating. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the production process of Cai Lun paper was improving day by day, and Zhao Xing only instructed the masters of papermaking to experiment with some other pulping materials, update the pulping and boiling process, and soon created more white and delicate, strong water absorption x-ng rice paper and yellow surface paper.

The art of typesetting and printing is not much of a head, as long as there are a large number of lettering masters, there is a hard and strong carrier, you can engrave as much as you want. Zhao Xing simply instructed the craftsmen to evolve the full-page lettering into carving individual Chinese characters, and then inlay the movable type molds into steel plates and arrange them into smooth text sentences. Shangdang's steel smelting technology was used to make steel molds, and Zhao Xing did not require each mold to be as small as a fly's head, as long as it could reach the size of a walnut, it could be typeset and printed.

These two Ming innovations were much simpler than the original development of liquor and the later promotion of blast furnace steelmaking. Zhao Xing just said his idea, and the knowledgeable masters were immediately enlightened, and it took less than a month to find out the m-n path and produce the sample. Papermaking and movable type printing are two clear things, but to put it bluntly, they require a stable environment and a large number of craftsmen, so it is not so mysterious to say.

Looking at the set of "Four Books" that had been bound into a book and printed in a neat and tidy way, Zhao Xing nodded with satisfaction, and sighed in his heart that the wisdom of the working people is really infinitely vast, as long as they are fed and clothed, and do not restrict their freedom in mind and body, the common people will always continue to introduce such and such creations.

"All the craftsmen involved in the development of papermaking and printing will be rewarded, all of them are registered, naturalized in Crouching Tiger City, and will be protected in the future!" Zhao Xing instructed Li Jinsi behind him.

"Hurry up and print 100 copies of the "Historical Records", "Autumn", "Zuo Chuan" and "Four Books", and I will be useful after the tenth month. Zhao Xing instructed the two main responsible masters.

"We will step up the printing from today, and we will definitely not miss the general's major affairs!" the two masters made a military order.

After the tenth month, that is, in the middle of September, Zhao Xing took the full moon as the reason to send out invitations and feast the officials, except for a few generals guarding the Quartet, the civil officials were basically invited to the city lord's mansion by Zhao Xing.

In the large banquet hall, there are long tables and chairs for drinking and feasting, but in the middle are neatly stacked a bunch of items in all directions, which are indistinguishable from a distance, attracting a lot of discussion among the scribes who came to the banquet.

The banquet started as scheduled after a while, and Zhao Xing asked a pair of NVs to be brought into the hall, so that everyone could take a closer look, and then began to drink back and forth, but never mentioned the pile of things in the middle. It wasn't until everyone drank meat and vegetables that Zhao Xing signaled everyone to be quiet for a while, indicating that he had something to say.

"Zhao is not talented, he is happy to get a pair of NV, fortunately he is loved by everyone, and now he is thriving. In order to express his gratitude, Guochang specially presented a thin gift, and hoped to smile!" After Zhao Xing finished speaking, he motioned to the subordinates around him to present a copy of the printed set of books one by one.

After the scribes who came to the banquet got the book, they hurriedly began to read it, and after reading it from beginning to end, and after comparing them with each other, they couldn't help but exclaim that it was amazing. Most of the scribes were book lovers, and in the past, they read bamboo slips, and the expensive Caihou paper was rarely used to transcribe the entire volume, but today I see the books as white as Y-, and they are clearly made in batches.

"I don't know how much this kind of book will cost?" Can it be popularized and used in large quantities in the future?" Zhang Jian, the honorary president of the "Taihang Academy," asked first.

"The cost is low, and after a book is typeset, thousands of copies can be printed in very little time!" Zhao Xing replied with a relaxed face.

"It is really the artifact of the country, and the party has this sharp weapon, and the world is in the middle!" Bing Yuan, who is dedicated to learning, does not care about words and taboos, and says what everyone wants to say the most.

"Hehe, don't shy away from saying it, as soon as this thing comes out, the party will be the bull's ear of the world's learning, after more than ten years, who can resist?" Zhao Xing looked complacent, and didn't care at all about being accused of trespassing.

"Congratulations to the general for getting this artifact, the party is very fortunate, and the state is very fortunate!" Li Fu, who has always been good at observing words and observing S-, said loudly, and everyone also got up to congratulate Zhao Xing when they heard this.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today I make a grand wish to repair thousands of books for the world and sell hundreds of millions of books, not for property, but for good readers in the world to have books to read!" Zhao Xing promised in front of everyone that in the future, he would organize people to edit and print all kinds of manuscripts for the use of readers all over the world.

"I wonder if Mr. Genju and Mr. You'an are willing to help Zhao fulfill this wish?" asked Zhao Xingxiang and Guan Ning, who were still looking through the books lovingly.

"I want to do what I want, I want to spend my whole life to cultivate thousands of scrolls in the world!" Bing Yuan got up and said with a serious face.

"In this life, you can be with books, and you will be blind to death!" Guan Ning also said very solemnly.

"Come, come, come! Let us drink three cups for this fortunate thing!" Zhang Jian happily proposed. Then Zhao Xing's children's full moon wine was raised again, and the scribes, who had always been not good at drinking, fell to the ground one after another.
