Chapter 22 Target Yingchuan
"Why don't you try it more, maybe there's a solution." Liu Tong continued to admonish.
Lu Yi sighed lightly, "The imperial doctor has already said that there is no help, who else can I go to in this situation?" It's better to live every day well, so as not to add any more burden to the family. ”
"Imperial Doctor, which Imperial Doctor, Imperial Physician Cheng Gao?" Liu Tong couldn't help but ask curiously.
"How could it be him, he has already gone home to retire." Lu Yi shook his head slightly.
Liu Tong nodded, then there may be salvation in such words, the only difference is to think about what kind of things you have to pay to save people.
If you have money, it seems that it is really not enough, what else can you use to impress Hua Tuo?
can set such strange rules, and obviously he is not afraid of settling accounts after the autumn, and there should be very few things that can attract him.
But if you are a medical officer, why don't you send a medical book?
But what to give?
It's a lot of money, but that thing has too many words.
Liu Tong struggled and hesitated, there were too many words, and he was too lazy to write at all.
What's more, in the current writing conditions, there is no soft paper to write at all, and the suitable and relatively cheap can only be bamboo slips.
But writing so many words on bamboo slips is estimated to fill a small room.
Liu Tong thought about it, and when he came to this world, he had to have some effect.
All the lengths combined, the number of words is too much, and it is impossible to write in this short period of time.
In this case, you can only write one or two of the thousands of gold prescriptions first, and then you can find a reason to say that it is a fragment.
If you take this as a gift, Hua Tuo should be able to help save the girl in front of her.
I don't know if Zhang Zhongjing is still in Changsha now, and I don't know how his treatise on typhoid fever is written?
As long as the plague of the Three Kingdoms period can be eliminated, how many fewer people will die in the entire Three Kingdoms?
"What is Her Royal Highness thinking about? Seeing that you have a hard time deciding, can you tell me about it? Maybe I can help a little bit. Lu Yi looked at Liu Tong's expression, and couldn't help but want to go up and help.
Hearing this voice, Liu Tong reacted, he was still on the carriage, and he was not alone.
"I want to write something, I may need some bamboo slips, short-term preservation can also be written on the bamboo slips with pen and ink, long-term preservation is to use a knife to carve on the bamboo slips, I want to write something that needs to be stored for a long time, so now I don't know what to do." When Liu Tong said this, he couldn't help but think of the difficulty of carving bamboo slips, although through this method, the text on the bamboo slips can be preserved for a long, long time.
However, it is indeed difficult to use a knife to engrave words on such a small bamboo slip, and the speed is extremely slow.
"So that's the case, I don't know how many words Her Royal Highness the princess will engrave?" Lu Yi asked again.
Liu Tong roughly calculated the text required for the length of the article, and wrote a complete article, which was about 10,000 to 20,000 words.
Anyway, this era is also written in classical Chinese, and the number of words is relatively concise, so there is no big problem.
"It's about 10,000 to 20,000 words, which isn't a lot." Liu Tong counted the number of words he thought.
"Is this amount? That's not much, at most ten rolls of bamboo slips, fortunately, the money on his body is enough. Lu Yi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
As the main carrier of recorded writing in this era, the price of bamboo slips themselves is not expensive, and the reason why some bamboo slips are particularly expensive is because of the words on them.
Bamboo slips without words are generally very cheap, and in addition to writing books, they are also used to deliver letters, etc.
For communication between friends, bamboo slips can also be used, which do not need to be stored for a long time, only need to be written on it, and can also be changed and reused.
If the immersion time is relatively short, you can directly wash off the ink, and if the time is longer, you can use a knife to scrape off the layer on the surface of the bamboo slips.
If it is stored for a long time, it is carved on the bamboo slip with a knife and then soaked in ink.
If stored properly, it can last for hundreds or even thousands of years.
Of course, if there are too many words, the more bamboo slips will be needed, and the bamboo slips themselves are made of bamboo, with a certain thickness, not as thin as paper, so each roll of bamboo slips is relatively heavy.
If the number of bamboo slips is large, the weight will naturally go up, and the difficulty of carrying will be greatly increased, which is why there will be a situation where bamboo slips are pulled by a car.
There are too many bamboo slips, and it is difficult to carry them by manpower, so they can only be transported with the help of the frame.
It is precisely because of this that the dissemination of knowledge is more difficult, and often an article requires several volumes, and how can it be so easy to carry it?
"However, if you store it for a long time, it will take a long time to engrave the lettering." Liu Tong immediately replied.
This thing was written and handed over to Hua Tuo, and it must not only be suitable for short-term preservation, so it can only be carved on bamboo slips.
However, the time and cost required will be greatly increased.
"It's okay, Your Highness Princess, this problem is not big, it is easy to solve." Lu Yi chuckled when he heard this question, opened the curtain on the side, and pointed to the guards on the side through the window.
At the same time, he turned sideways slightly, leaving some space for Liu Tong to take a look, and then said, "These people are all my father's guards, and one of them is called Lu Wen, who is the one who takes the lead, and his carving speed is very fast." ”
"Does he still know how to read?" Liu Tong looked at the leading guard, a little surprised, there are too few people who can know words in this era.
"No, but he can carve, Your Highness the Princess, as long as he writes the font on the bamboo joint, he can carve it, and it is very fast." Lu Yi immediately replied.
This guard was originally a veteran of the army, but because the first emperor disbanded the army, some people really had nowhere to go.
Huangfu Song called some people he was familiar with to his mansion as guards, and some were stuffed into his familiar people's homes, on the one hand, to ensure the safety of each family and avoid being disturbed by Xiao Xiao. On the other hand, it is also to ensure that these soldiers have land to go and food.
At this time, the veterans basically have rich combat experience, and they carve according to the gourd painting scoop, which is not a big problem at all, and it can even be said that it is very easy.
But literacy,It's very embarrassing.,After this thing has passed the learning period.,If you want to learn.,You have to rely on someone to teach.,Those who can learn independently.,It's a very few.,Not to mention how many people will teach their own guards at home now?
Lu Zhi himself doesn't care, the Great Confucian still has the demeanor of the Great Confucian, and there is no class to teach, but there is no extra time to teach these guards.
"I see, in that case, let's take a detour and go to Yingchuan." Liu Tong is about to change his destination.
went there to find Hua Tuo to see Lu Yi for a doctor, and by the way, he found the strongest protagonist in his book, and then went to hug his thighs.
