    Chapter 378 I want to print "Jin Ping Mei"

    Li Zhen looked at Cheng Chuli who was kneeling down, and felt very emotional in her heart.

    The reason why such a huge good thing was entrusted to Cheng Chuli was because Cheng Chuli was smooth and had extremely high emotional intelligence. After looking at all the generals, he was the most suitable candidate.

    Secondly, the two of them have been good friends since childhood. With such a good thing, Cheng Chuli should naturally be given priority.

    Last but not least, Cheng Chuli¡¯s father Cheng Yaojin was a great help to him, but he died in the battle in Chang¡¯an. Naturally, he had to take good care of Cheng Chuli.

    Such a good thing, of course, he should be given priority.

    At that moment, Li Zhen explained the specific matters to Cheng Chuli. Cheng Chuli was overjoyed and decided to recruit some sales first.

    It is very hard to run a sales operation, and it is also very dangerous to travel through the areas ruled by warlords. I believe that there will be brave men under heavy rewards. As long as there are enough benefits, there will be many people who want to be sales.

    But in order to avoid vicious competition among these sales, Cheng Chuli only places one sales in each state. This way, it can ensure that the interests of all parties are not harmed.

    After Cheng Chuli left, Li Zhen thought that light industry could not rely solely on papermaking, but would also need to develop several pillar industries.

    what to do?

    Li Zhen saw the papers and had an idea.

    You can definitely write an article on paper and publish it yourself!  The cultural industry is the most profitable!

    When people¡¯s material needs are met, they will have spiritual needs, so the cultural industry also came into being.

    For example, some dramas and storytelling, but the most important thing and the most widely spread are books.

    So, what Li Zhen wants to do now is to publish a book!  This is a huge treasure house that can not only provide people with spiritual food, but also make huge profits.

    One problem that needs to be solved before publishing the book is how to publish it.

    In this era, engraving printing was used, and each page of the book had to be carved with wooden characters. The wooden characters that took a long time to be carved were still blurred after a long time.

    So at this time, if clay movable type printing can be developed, it will greatly improve the efficiency of printing.

    The principle of this clay movable type is very simple. First, make the clay into a rectangular seal style. The size is determined according to the font size you need. The length, width and height of all "clay seals" must be the same.

    Then use a carving knife to carve the required character (yin or yang character, the character is reversed like a seal) on the square at one end of the clay seal.

    Then the clay seal is dried in the sun and fired in the fire.

    The last step is to make the movable type frame: use wooden slats to make a frame, the thickness of the wooden slats is 3~5 mm less than the height of the "movable type".  The length and width of the wooden frame should be an integral multiple of the size of the "mortar seal", plus a few millimeters longer to accommodate the installation of "movable type".

    Arrange the "movable type" in order in the wooden frame, use a sponge to dip in paint and apply it evenly on the movable type, then cover the "movable type" with white paper, then use a "cloth bag" to gently and evenly pat the paper surface, and immediately  Peel the paper off the "movable type" printing plate and let it dry, and a finished piece of movable type printing is ready.

    This kind of movable type printing was originally invented by Bi Sheng in the Northern Song Dynasty. It was more than 400 years earlier than Europe. However, because of the need, Li Zhen decided to develop it first.

    Li Zhen found some carving craftsmen and told them the production method. When these craftsmen heard this, they were all ecstatic.

    An old craftsman with white beard and hair said: "I have been printing for a lifetime, but I have never thought that there is such a printing method in the world. In this case, there is no need to print a page of books and carve the wooden boards once, and only need to rearrange them.  Movable type is enough, and after firing, clay type can be used much longer than wooden type and is more durable."

    "Your Highness, we are going to trial-produce clay movable type. Your Highness's invention will change the entire history of publishing."

    Li Zhen smiled and said to herself, more than just changing the history of publishing, I want to change the history of human civilization.

    These publishing craftsmen were excited to try making movable clay type. On the other hand, Li Zhen felt that now that printing technology was developed, she should print some best-selling products.

    ??Always publishing scriptures and the Four Books and Five Classics, which probably won¡¯t be easy to sell. I think it would be good if I could get some novels.

    Thinking of this, Li Zhen recalled the novels she had read in her previous life, including the Four Great Classics, Fighting to Break the Sky, Returning to the Song Dynasty, and returning to the Ming Dynasty to become a prince

    ???????????????????? It seems that the following books are good to read, but they are a bit too ahead of their time.??And the writing is not in line with this era, I'm afraid many people won't understand it.

    "However, although I have read a lot of books, I have to write them myself. Firstly, I don't have the time, and secondly I can't remember the details clearly.

    It would be great if there was a ready-made famous novel.

    Hehe, it seems that we need to ask for help from the system.

    Thinking of this, Li Zhen chuckled and communicated with the system with her mind: "System, can you send me some novels? I want to kill some time."

    "Ding! Host, if you want to plagiarize the novel, you need to pay copyright fees, which will be withheld by the system."

    "Sweet, you still need copyright fees. System, you have a strong sense of protecting intellectual property rights."

    "Of course, every book is written by the author with great effort. It is easy for you to copy it, but doesn't the original author's hard work help you in vain? The author needs to be respected."

    "This is the same principle. System, how much will my publishing rights cost?"

    "Each of the four famous works is worth 100,000 guan, "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" is 80,000 guan, "Flowers in the Mirror" is 80,000 guan, and "Jin Ping Mei" is 150,000 guan."

    "Nani? Each of the Four Great Classics costs only 100,000 guan. Why does "The Plum in the Golden Vase" cost 150,000 guan?"

    ""Jin Ping Mei" sold better, so the copyright fee is more expensive."

    Li Zhen thought about it, and it was true that although the four famous masterpieces were more famous and respected in later generations, "The Plum in the Golden Vase" was more loved by ordinary people. If it weren't for the subject matter, it would have been the fifth masterpiece.

    "System, I want these books, and the copyright fees will be paid in full."

    Li Zhen bought several books, but after thinking about it, he felt that some things in the books still needed to be modified. This was a big project. "Journey to the West" did not need to be modified, but the other few books, "Jinghuahua"  "Yuan" is about things that happened during the time of Wu Zetian, "Water Margin" and "Jin Ping Mei" are about things in the Song Dynasty, and "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" is about the Ming and Qing Dynasties. If such a book is published directly according to the script, it will not lead to chaos in the world.  Strange.

    Therefore, Li Zhen decided to find someone to revise these books. However, he did not have the right people for a while, and he had no time. When he was scratching his head, a suitable candidate appeared in front of him.

    This person is none other than King Luo Bin.

    King Luo Bin was sent to Lingzhou by Li Zhen before the fall of Chang'an. Later, he heard that Li Zhen was established in Yingzhou, so he, Lu Zhaolin, Di Renjie, Shangguanyi and others detoured through the grassland and trekked for several months to Yingzhou  ¡­(Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
