Chapter 100: The Tang Weekly is published

The quality of the printed things is a little worse, but ...... This is also mass printing! Isn't that much faster than they used to copy a book?!

Obviously, these readers are very smart and not so stupid.

"That's right! The advent of printing means that books will be popularized in large numbers, and the emergence of papermaking will reduce the price of books to a point that is acceptable to ordinary people. Li Ke said seriously.

In this day and age, books are really expensive! A real word of gold! The most ordinary book of 10,000 words in Datang, that is, a book of 10,000 words, costs 10 times! And even more! What is the concept? Can be exchanged for 10,000 catties of food!

These are ordinary Mongolian books, those books that are really more valuable, and they are more expensive!

This is also another reason why ordinary people can't afford to read at all, and the gate valve family controls all reading channels.

All the scholars were excited! They all came from poor backgrounds, and they knew too well what it was like to want to read, but not have books to read.

And now, His Royal Highness the King of Shu really did what he said, giving all the poor scholars and all ordinary people a chance!

"In the future, we will also strengthen the imperial examination system in Datang, so that the imperial examination in Datang will become a channel for all scholars, not just the participation of scholars, but also for everyone in the world." Li Ke said seriously.

"And everyone, the beginning of all this cannot be completed by me alone, and I still need your strength." When Li Ke said this, his expression was solemn, and he bowed down to all the scholars with his hands in fists.

Li Ke's action made many of the scholars red-eyed, when did they receive this attitude? In Taixue, in other places in Guozijian, they are all looked down upon.

And here in Li Ke, His Royal Highness the King of Shu not only let them see the hope of the future, but more importantly, His Royal Highness the King of Shu respected them.

"The ministers are willing to die for His Royal Highness the King of Shu!" A literati took a step back with a solemn face and bent down to salute.

"The ministers are willing to die for His Royal Highness the King of Shu!" All literati are more or less the same.

The craftsmen next to them pouted disdainfully, and here they are again, and there is a wave every three or five times, queuing, you know? Line up!

"I don't need you to die for me, you have to keep your useful body and do your best in your lifetime to carry out these policies! This is what you should really do, and in the process, some of you may really die, but you are destined to go down in history because you have created a new era! ”

"Dead one of you, and thousands of you who share your spirit and walk your way! And you are their spiritual leaders! Li Ke said seriously.

"Yes!" All the literati were excited! As a scholar, leaving a name in history is the greatest honor!

"Now, we have to divide into two groups of people to write articles, and this Datang Weekly is the first stick I told you that we leveraged certain systems in Datang! But we are bound to encounter unprecedented resistance, unprecedented resistance, and I think you should know better than I do! Because you encounter these restrictions in the process of studying! ”

"It's like a big net, trapping you in the middle, so that you in this society have nowhere to escape! So, if you want to break through this net, can you understand the difficulties you encounter? Li Ke said with a calm face.

All the scholars are silent!

"Show them. This is a sample, an experimental print, and the genuine product will be revised on a small scale, but the main content will remain the same. Li Ke waved his hand.

The people next to Tian Meng immediately handed the first batch of printed Datang Weekly Newspapers to their hands, one for each person.

Naturally, the newspapers of this era could not devote so much content to them as later generations. No, it is not easy for people in this era to be able to see the paper on which they are writing.

And it is impossible for newspapers to be printed on both sides, and the quality of the paper and the quality of the printing cannot keep up.

The first issue of Datang Weekly consisted of only two articles.

The first article is the main one, but when these gentlemen open it, they are thundered.

In the upper left corner of the front, it is printed in large letters: Datang Weekly, and the first issue is written in the lower right corner.

Then the next line is the title: Shocked, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty actually did such a thing!

All the scholars are stupid, what the hell is this title. But...... Don't say it, they have some curiosity in their hearts, what did this majesty do.

Text: Just in the winter of last year, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty officially made a decision to use troops against Tuyuhun! Many people don't know what Tuyuhun is, it is located in the southern part of the Hexi Corridor, which is the most important in the Tang Dynasty, connecting the Yumen Pass in the Western Regions......

The reason why such a decision was made was because Murong Fuyun, the leader of Tuyuhun, was a despicable and shameless villain, who rebelled three times and twice, and when the Tang Dynasty soldiers were approaching, they begged for mercy and fornication, seeking His Majesty's reward, and the Tang Dynasty's troops retreated, and they burned and looted the Tang border!

What follows is a large section of slander against Murong Fuyun, portraying him as a heinous, rebellious villain, and a man-eating devil.

"This ...... Your Highness, is this a bit untrue? "A scholar really couldn't hold back, he endured the vernacular that can be called the vernacular, maybe the person who wrote it was not knowledgeable enough, but a lot of the content in it was obviously made up, and this was to provoke people's anger.

"Not true? A few years ago, the Tuyuhun army plundered the border, and it was a disaster year, which led to a large number of refugees on the border of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty, because the grain was looted, and the Tang Dynasty was not in a hurry to transfer troops. ”

"Do you know what it means?" Li Ke sneered, and without waiting for this scholar to answer, he continued to say in a cold tone: "Yi Zi cannibalism, it is the treasure that you regard as a treasure in your heart, but it is just a bowl of meat in someone else's bowl!" ”

The cruel and cold words seemed to be a cool breath pouring down from the top of everyone's heads.

As a later generation, seeing this word, Li Ke didn't dare to imagine such a scene, two pairs of parents swapping children for each other, and then ...... them How much grief they endured, but can they be blamed? People who have not endured hunger and such circumstances can never imagine such a miserable situation, and in many cases it is not even a subjective decision of their parents.

Standing in the afterlife, there are countless people who will spray these parents, but you know, those children...... Can't survive? If you don't even have an adult to eat, the child will die.

What's even more terrifying is ...... Parents who keep their children will be targeted by some of the childless but strong victims who are not with them, snatch these children, and then .......

The child starved to death, will they get rid of such a thing? No.

"Your Highness, the minister thinks these words are not sharp enough!" There was silence for a long time, and a scholar spoke loudly.
