Liu Cong gently peeled off the piece of paper, and then slowly turned it over.
All eyes are on the paper.
In an instant, everyone present, except Liu Cong, was stunned!
What did they see?
The words are clearly "written" on the paper, neatly arranged and of the same size. They are exactly the contents of "Spring and Autumn"!
I don¡¯t know how many times it is clearer than the one engraved on the bamboo slips.
The characters on the bamboo slips are mostly in small seal script, but also in official script. Although Qin Shihuang unified the characters, the strokes of many characters are still different. This time Liu Cong wanted to change the font from official script to regular script.
"My lord, thiswho wrote this" It took Liu Hu a long time to wake up and asked doubtfully, "Did it be written by my lord?"
Liu Cong said nothing, took out another piece of paper and repeated the action just now. Soon, another one was printed.
"My lord, these two pictures are exactly the same!" Liu Hu was even more surprised this time.
"Sir, this is faster than copyingmuch faster" Master Chen also said excitedly, "and it is clearer than copying."
After the advent of new Han paper, many people began to copy books. Because the bamboo slips are not only bulky, but also have unclear handwriting, they are difficult to read at night unless many lamps are lit.
The copied book is different. You can read it under an oil lamp at night. But it takes too much effort to copy, and it¡¯s easy to make mistakes.
But this method of "copying" is simply amazing.
¡°This is not copying, this is called printing, a special method of printing books!¡± Liu Cong explained.
"Your Excellency is truly a man of God!" Master Chen and others admired Liu Cong with all their might.
"Liu Hu, transport all the books in the Prefectural Mufu here, and at the same time recruit more typesetting and printing craftsmen!"
"No!"
"Master Chen, from now on, you will be responsible for printing the new book. First print it page by page, and then bind it into a volume with thread. The new Han paper will first be used for printing!"
"No!" Master Chen looked very excited, because he understood how big a sensation the new book would cause, and how far-reaching the significance of what he was doing was. "Sir, how many copies of each book should be printed?"
"Well" Liu Cong thought for a while. It is certain that the supply of new books will exceed the demand in the future, but which books are in high demand among people in this era? Which books are in low demand? It¡¯s unclear now, ¡°Two hundred copies of each book will be printed first!¡±
"No!"
"Typesetting and printing are not difficult, newly recruited craftsmen can complete it. The previous craftsmen continue to make printing plates, and the labor cost increases by 20%!"
Liu Cong knew that according to the demand for new books in the future, one set of negative plates would not be enough. Some must be produced in advance, and several books must be printed at the same time.
"Thank you, sir!" When the craftsmen heard that their wages would be increased by 20%, they knelt down and thanked him again in excitement. The status of masons in this era is very low. How can you not be excited to enjoy such treatment? Everyone is secretly determined to do this well.
"In addition to "Spring and Autumn", "The Analects of Confucius", "Mencius", "Han Feizi", "Warring States Policy", "The Book of Songs", "Six Tao", "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and other books must be printed first. After printing, each book Take ten copies of the book and send them to the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion, and I will give you a huge reward!"
"Thank you, sir!"
After everything was arranged, Liu Cong returned to the Prefecture Mufu.
It was already dark at this time. Although he had been tired for a day, Liu Cong did not feel sleepy at all. From papermaking to printing, it took hundreds of years in the long river of history, but for him, it took only two years to complete this pioneering work that spanned the ages, and he was extremely excited. Can you imagine what kind of sensation there will be when the new book comes out?
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out out of the house.
This unruly princess has changed since her wedding, becoming as docile as a kitten. But when he was in bed, he would show his former wildness, which made Liu Cong very happy and he also liked coming here, especially when he encountered something happy.
Seeing Liu Cong, Sun Shangxiang was extremely surprised, like an octopus, wrapped around Liu Cong's body.
The woman's unique fragrance hit his nostrils, making Liu Cong obsessed, intoxicated, and couldn't help himself, and the two became entangled together.
After all the storm, Sun Shangxiang still hugged Liu Cong, as if she was afraid that if she let go, her husband would fly away. Liu Cong also gently stroked Sun Shangxiang's delicate body and kissed her rosy face.?.
"Is there any big happy event for my husband?" Sun Shangxiang asked softly.
"Xiang'er guessed it!"
"Every time my husband has a big happy event, he is very awesome!" Sun Shangxiang said with a shy face, "As long as my husband has a big happy event and he is happy, I will be happy too."
"Yes, there will be a great event that will shock the world, benefit everyone in the world, and make our reputation spread far and wide!" Liu Cong couldn't hide his excitement, "However, it will still take a few days."
"Then Xiang'er congratulates husband in advance!" Sun Shangxiang seemed to be happier than Liu Cong, "Husband, Xiang'er wants to have a child!"
"oh¡¡"
The two are entangled again.
The printing of new books is going on day and night. According to Liu Cong's request, two hundred copies of each book will be printed first.
Although there is only one set of printing plates, Master Chen and others have also thought of a way to typeset different page numbers at the same time. If the plates are enough, print them first. If there are not enough plates, use the others first to replenish which ones are missing. In this way, at least one can be printed every day. Complete the printing of a book.
Just five days later, Master Chen compiled the eight books mentioned by Liu Cong: "Spring and Autumn", "The Analects of Confucius", "Mencius", "Han Feizi", "Warring States Policy", "Book of Songs", "Six Tao", and "Sun Tzu's Art of War" Waiting for the newly printed ten books of each kind to be delivered to Liu Cong's study.
Liu Cong was extremely excited when he finally saw the book with the fragrance of ink.
Those craftsmen regard books as treasures, making them clean and tidy without any stains, and binding them very neatly.
Although Master Chen saw the new book a few days ago, he was still very excited at this time.
Liu Cong gently picked up a book. The font on the cover was in official script, which was larger. Below the two words "The Analects of Confucius" is the regular script used for printing, "Written by Confucius and his disciples." Liu Cong gently opened the first page. Looking at the fresh and familiar pages, Liu Cong felt his heart tremble.
Liu Chen is satisfied to be able to bring this invention into this era ahead of schedule. From then on, the civilization of the Han Dynasty would develop rapidly and spread throughout the world.
"Okay, great!" After flipping through a few pages, Liu Cong expressed his heartfelt admiration.
"Your Excellency's initiative will be remembered forever!" Master Chen's excited eyes were full of deep admiration.
"Master Chen, your hard work during this period has benefited the country and benefited all people. It will be recorded by historians in the future!"
"Thank you, sir. You are a god descended from heaven, the first person in ancient and modern times!" Who doesn't want to leave his name in history? For a craftsman with no status to be able to achieve this, Master Chen felt that his life had been worthwhile. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
