Coming out of Gwynna, Kaichi arrives at Jed's lab with his movable type printing tools.

Jed they chose a different technical direction, and now the progress is not as good as Jiayi, but the potential is still not small, especially if Jiayi wants to print graphics and texts, with the help of Jed and their technology, the efficiency can be greatly improved.

Jed and the others are all in the underground laboratory of the Maduo family, although Maduo bought a house like Jiayi, but he didn't live in it for much time, unlike Jiayi, after the first semester, he basically lived outside.

When Kaichi entered, he saw Jed, Madow, Janssy, and Chester sitting around each other, writing and drawing on the piece of paper, discussing something. March wasn't here, she's been busy with the paper mill and should be at the paper mill now.

Kaichi took out an iron box from his bracelet and put it down, and asked them, "What are you doing?" ”

Yang Xi looked up and saw that it was Jiayi, pushed away the pen and paper in his hand, stood up and said, "It's not that we're studying the copying technique, we have just finished disassembling the copying technique, and it is still a little difficult to automatically carve the wooden board according to the copying technique." ”

Jia Yi kicked the iron box he put down with his foot a little proudly: "Mine is already good, do you want to go to Professor Queenie for help, she should be more free, it should be very simple to help you improve a spell." ”

Seeing Jia Yi coming, the rest of the people also put down their work and gathered around, Ma Duo took the box on the ground, and said in agreement: "Of course it would be good if we could ask Professor Queenie for help, we are all having a headache to change now, and we still don't have too many ideas." ”

After speaking, he opened Jiayi's iron box, took out the metal lettering mold inside, and put it on the test bench one by one, making a sound of metal impact.

Yanxi was not so optimistic: "Professor Queenie and we don't have as good a relationship as you, and it's not good to always trouble each other, and it's better to do it yourself." ”

Queenie is a purple-robed mage, and if it weren't for the travels, Jia Yi and the others might not be able to meet a purple-robed mage, let alone ask her for help.

"You don't have to let Queenie do it directly, she's a professor, you're a student, isn't it normal for students to ask a professor for guidance, you can let Queenie provide you with some ideas, it's better than you are like a swarm of headless flies now. ”

Yangxi was stunned, this is a good method.

They then discussed Jiayi's movable type printing, Jiayi has a complete set of models, and when new letters are needed, the corresponding letters can be directly inverted from the model, and it is not troublesome to make.

However, the typesetting was not easy, and several of them were not proficient, and it took a lot of time to correctly typeset the content of the previous page of a book that they took in their hands and frame it with a metal frame.

Ma Duo looked at the page printed in his hand, there were some smudges on it because of everyone's unskillfulness, but it did not affect the reading, the size of each word was uniform, although it was not as beautiful as the handwriting, but it was very standardized.

"Jiayi, are you not specifically for ordinary people, as long as you are willing to spend time, you can typeset out a book, and you don't need the participation of magic at all. ”

"Yes. "Through this general chamber of commerce, you can also print and publish books, so you don't have to be limited to the wizarding world." ”

In fact, it is not impossible for ordinary people to use magic duplicators, this kind of magic machine can be activated and powered by magic stones with a little modification, and it does not need to be a magician to use.

But for non-magicians, the requirements for using this type of machinery are still too high, special training is required, and maintenance is not very convenient, in the mage world, few people will provide after-sales service for this type of thing, and if there is a problem, you can only do it yourself or pay someone to hire someone.

Jiayi came here this time, in addition to showing his movable type printing, he also wanted to entrust the machine tool workshop in Yangxi to make a few machine tools for making movable type. Although the alphabet script requires a small number of letters, there are quite a few of them.

Jia brought over a tin box of letters and a model, the size of a medicine box of iron box, but after only two pages, the letters began to be missing, but this is also related to his unscientific letter arrangement, these letters are evenly distributed, but in the composition of words, the frequency of use of each letter is different, and the frequency of words in the article is not the same, so the equal distribution will only lead to some letters too many, and some are always not enough.

In order to be able to quickly retrieve characters, Jiayi is designing a set of fast retrieval and storage system to access characters more conveniently, and the letters are much more convenient than Chinese character retrieval, because there are few types, and it is more convenient to access the letters needed.

Coming out of Jed's and the others, Kaichi came to Yanel's side again, and Yanel was busy with the latest questionnaire, which was almost over now.

In fact, this questionnaire is more to reassure the professors of the college, for Jiayi, even if the survey results are not ideal, it will not affect his mind to start a newspaper, firstly, because the newspaper has been tested by reality on the earth after all, and the audience is wider, and secondly, because this is the industry of the academy, and he does not need to pay for it himself.

It's the coolest feeling to use other people's money to do your own experiments, and if the newspaper is a big success, Jiayi can also let Valoka follow up quickly, and he won't suffer left or right.

Yanel's side has already withdrawn a batch of questionnaires, because of Kaichi's suggestion, this time the scope of the survey is more extensive, more for mage apprentices, ordinary workers - of course, literate, the proportion of mages has been greatly reduced.

This time the result finally met Jiayi's expectations,Among the various options provided by Jiayi,The highest proportion is current affairs,The rest is novels,Current affairs,And popular science also accounts for a large proportion,This is beyond Jiayi's expectations,Maybe it's because there are more mage apprentices in the academy.,So I hope to receive some of the latest knowledge.。

In fact, there is a lot of room for operation in this questionnaire, as long as the target group is changed, the results will be very different, so if you encounter an unreliable survey, the results have no reference value at all. It's actually quite easy for someone like Jia Yi to manipulate the result.

After being satisfied, Kaichi said to Yanel: "Look at this survey, we have a lot of audience, and from now on, we can start to work on the first issue of the first issue, you go to the professors of the college to ask for a manuscript, and you have to find someone to collect real-time news from all over the world, which is also very important." ”

"We've already started this a long time ago, and it's easy for us to reach out to the Mage Guilds in a few nearby locations to gather the latest news from each country, and the academy has students from all over the country, so they'll definitely want to get the latest news from their hometowns," Yanel said. There are also sales channels, we have worked with the Skoll Chamber of Commerce and the Valoka Chamber of Commerce to be able to quickly ship our newspapers to various countries for sale. ”

Yanel is really good, although he doesn't know much about the newspaper, but according to Jiayi's description, he has been preparing for a long time, and if he starts preparing now at the pace of Jiayi, I don't know if this newspaper will be officially released by the end of the semester.

Although the Academy of Magic is not like an ordinary school, it will be deserted during the holidays, but it will also greatly reduce the flow of people, which will affect the sales and influence of the newspaper.

It is now less than a month before the end of the semester, and it is necessary to rush to publish the newspaper as soon as possible.

Because of this, although Kaichi had basically perfected movable type printing, he did not want to use movable type printing to print his first newspaper, and there was not much time for him to debug.
