72 Deliberation printing

After arriving at Han's house, I began today's study. Mo Ziyun likes to listen to Han Shuxian's lectures, in his explanation, Mo Ziyun can not only learn the content of the book, but also understand some things about this dynasty, this is big news, except for knowing a little bit from his mouth, other places can not hear at all, so every time she listens to the class, she is very attentive.

For people who love to learn, the time to study is always very short, just like Mo Ziyun at this time, how can it be over after only a while?

After sighing that the time passed quickly, Mo Ziyun thought about telling Han Shuxian about the printing, pulled Han Shuxian and said, "Uncle, I have something to tell you." ”

Han Shuxian looked at Mo Ziyun's big bright eyes, thinking that she should want to ask some questions about the class just now, "Oh? What do you want to tell me? ”

Mo Ziyun looked at Han Chunlin and said without seeing anything: "Brother Chunlin, you go to play with Sister Lulu first, and I will come to you after my uncle and I have finished talking, and then we will play together again." "I don't feel like I'm in someone's house at all.,A sense of ownership.。。

Han Chunlin wanted to stay and listen to what they said, so he didn't want to go out to play with Han Qiulu, and said with some jealousy: "You didn't tell me anything?" I'm going to hear it too. ”

Mo Ziyun thought for a while, it didn't matter if he stayed, so he excused himself and said: "I thought that you were tired from class, so I wanted you to go and rest first!" Since you don't want to rest, let's discuss it together. ”

"Okay, I'll discuss it with you." Han Chunlin said.

Han Shuxian pursed his lips and couldn't help laughing, secretly thinking that if Wan Wan sold his stupid son one day, he was afraid that he would happily count the money for Wan Yun! After laughing secretly, he looked at Mo Ziyun who was lying seriously, but how could Yun Yun be such a person!

After Han Chunlin stayed, Mo Ziyun didn't delay any longer, and began to say: "Uncle, Uncle Xie asked me to copy the Analects all the time, saying that no matter how much I copied, he could sell it!" ”

Han Shuxian thought that Mo Ziyun thought that Xie Wenhua was taking care of her by asking her to copy the Analects to make money, rather than really being able to sell it quickly, just like Xie Wenhua took care of Chunlin, who wrote very poorly, but still accepted it!

She could think that Xie Wenhua was taking care of Chunlin, and she could also think of herself, so she explained: "If it is only the Analects, the manuscript may not be sold quickly, but it is different with annotations. That's why she can sell no matter how much you copy. ”

Mo Ziyun nodded and said, "Well, Uncle Xie also said that it is easy to sell because of the annotations." ”

Only then did Han Shuxian know that she might be talking about another topic, "Then what do you want to say?" ”

Mo Ziyun said: "What I want to say is printing!" ”

"Printing?" Han Shuxian didn't understand how she could have thought of printing.

Mo Ziyun nodded and replied, "Yes, since the annotated Analects is so easy to sell, wouldn't it be more convenient to print more directly?" ”

"What you said, your Uncle Xie has been copying it a long time ago, but it has not been printed." Han Shuxian said.

"I asked Uncle Xie why he didn't find someone to engrave and print, and he also said that it was never printed." Mo Ziyun said.

Han Chunlin listened to the two of them talking back and forth, it was not fun at all, and he was not interested. I wanted to go, but I thought that I took the initiative to stay, and I was embarrassed to leave for a while, so I struggled a lot and said: "Dad, Yunyun, you discuss it first, I'll go and see my sister and come again." ”

Han Shuxian pursed his lips again, and did not expose the excuses made by his stupid son, and sent him up the steps and said, "Okay, then you can go!" Your sister probably misses you too. ”

Mo Ziyun also took the opportunity to say: "It's okay, my uncle and I will talk slowly, it's okay for you to accompany Sister Lulu more." ”

Han Chunlin went to play with his sister under the steps given by his father and Mo Ziyun.

After Han Chunlin left, Mo Ziyun rushed to the topic, "Uncle, I have thought of a good way to print, and I will definitely succeed." ”

Mo Ziyun's words gave Han Shuxian's first reaction was impossible! But looking at Mo Ziyun, she grew up under his watch, if it is according to ordinary people's thoughts, it is ten thousand impossible! But after the first reaction, I hesitated a little!

Whether it is talking or doing things, Wan Wan has never had some unrealistic ideas and practices, she must have her thoughts when she says this, so she said: "Tell me, what good methods do you have!" ”

Mo Ziyun plans to say both movable type printing and wax paper printing, and does not plan to test it herself, and then say it after the experiment, it is easy to explain just if she has an idea at her age, if she starts to do it again, there will be another explanation, and if the test is successful, even if the explanation is fine, but the wax paper test also needs ink, she can't find this thing at all, if it is replaced with an ink test, the effect will inevitably be poor.

She hoped that this bad effect would be witnessed with Han Shuxian, and then she would come up with a way to solve it! This will also reduce the suspicion of her! "Uncle Xie said that the words cannot be engraved in advance, because the content of each book is different, and only after determining the content to be printed can the words be officially engraved and ready for printing." ”

Han Shuxian nodded, "That's right." ”

Mo Ziyun then said: "If this is the case, every time the lettering will be delayed for a long time, and it is easy to make mistakes, and it is not easy to modify after making mistakes. ”

Han Shuxian saw that what she said was the first thing she said, and her first reaction just now was long gone, and she guessed in her heart that she might have really come up with a good method, and was shocked that she really came up with a way to print, and was glad that she could tell herself about it as soon as possible, "Indeed, if you don't engrave a few words, you can never do it, but when you encounter a page that is almost finished, you can only remove the original wooden block and add another piece." Later, he continued: "Even if it is made up, but there are differences in the front engraving, whether it is neat or beautiful, it can't be done without mistakes, this is still found to be wrong, and some mistakes that are not found are directly printed is wrong, which also leads to the fact that the printed books are not easy to sell, or cannot be sold, which is why your Uncle Xie has not started printing, because the printed ones have not yet achieved the effect he wants." ”

Mo Ziyun said: "The method I think is not to engrave according to the book, but to find the words according to the content of the book, find the words needed for each page, and then put them together in a fixed plate to form an article and then start printing." ”

Han Shuxian roughly understood what she meant, which meant that he would engrave some words and prepare first, and it would work, but the content of each article was different, composed of different words, and if he was not sure, he couldn't prepare in advance. "But the content of each article is different, how do you prepare in advance?" ”

Mo Ziyun smiled, "Although the content of each article is different, it is composed of those words, wouldn't it be good if we carved all the words in advance and prepared them?" ”

Han Shuxian didn't expect that the preparation she was going to say was to engrave all the words, this is not easy, it will take a lot of effort just to carve every word, and not to mention that there are many repeated words in the whole book, that is, there may be many repeated words in a page, how much do you have to prepare to be enough? "Even if you prepare some words, have you thought about how many words are repeated in each book? How do you prepare for these repetitive words? ”

Mo Ziyun said: "This is simple, each word is engraved with a few more for use as a repetitive substitute, in order to make it easier to find, all the words are arranged according to the pronunciation or strokes, so it is easy to find." ”

"If the number of engraved words is not enough, it will be temporarily increased, and the temporary increase is only a small number after all, even if you stop to make an increase, it is faster than the whole book is engraved."

Mo Ziyun didn't care about Han Shuxian's thoughts for the time being, and after a pause, he continued: "And you don't use wood carving, the words carved on wood are easy to deform after a long time, and the carving is also very slow, maybe because it is wood, the printing effect is not good!" So what I want is to use clay, first mix the clay, cut it into small pieces the size of the lettering, and then the clay is half dry and the words are carved, and then they are fired in the furnace and fired into a ceramic sample, so that no matter how long it takes, it will not be deformed. ”

Han Shuxian thoroughly understood what she said! But after this understanding, I was even more shocked! "How did you come up with this?"

This is good prevarication, wrong, well explained! Mo Ziyun explained: "Didn't my uncle say that the bowl we use is made of clay? I thought that clay could make a bowl, and if I carved words on a clay block, it would burn out. ”

Han Shuxian sighed, and said something that he didn't know how many times he had said, and said, "I really don't know how your little head grows!" ”

Mo Ziyun laughed, "Uncle also thinks it's okay, right?" ”

Han Shuxian nodded, "You can try!" ”

Mo Ziyun said: "Well, let's find someone to engrave a page of words and burn it out to see the effect!" ”

Han Shuxian stretched out his hand and touched Mo Ziyun's head, "You don't have to think about this, I'll figure it out." He still advised: "Don't talk about this to the outside world." ”

Mo Ziyun nodded and replied with a smile: "I only told my uncle, but my aunt didn't say it." ”

"Little naughty." Han Shuxian smiled dotingly.

"I've thought of another way!" Mo Ziyun said with a little arrogance.

"Is there a way?" The shock can no longer describe Han Shuxian's thoughts at this time.

"Hmm!" Mo Ziyun replied, and then continued: "It is to melt the candle, then soak the paper in wax to dry, and then use a knife to engrave words on the paper soaked in wax, but to carve the paper with wax thoroughly, put a piece of paper under the wax paper after carving, and then brush it on the wax paper with ink, and the ink can be printed by soaking it down the engraving place." ”
