Chapter 110 You won't run, will you?
Zheng Xuan and the other two came to Taiping Town, not considering the folk customs of the town first, but first of all, they were deeply attracted by the books in the library.
Especially after seeing the collection of books by the Fulin family, I couldn't extricate myself.
"Four, although you know you care about these books very much... it's already time for dinner." Zhang Yu coughed lightly. These people were really tired. Not only did they say that they had read the book for almost a morning, they also discussed the contents.
When the four academic top students were discussing, Zhang Yu almost couldn't get in.
Either I can't insert it, or I think the debate is very troublesome.
If you have reading comprehension, that is the level of education you have received.
This is how you can understand the "Guiding Method" on the martial arts side as scientific knowledge.
Everyone has different education, different ideas, and of course the answers are different. This is no longer a dispute over the correct answer, but involves ideas. Even if Zhang Yu can win against them, he will only give in temporarily, go back to sort out and fight again.
Anyway, if you don't convince you, this matter will never end and there will be no practical benefits. Who can argue with the pain of being idle...
"This class will end in February next year, and the next class will start in March. In these more than four months, you can't let the three of you do nothing, right?" Zhang Yu said with a smile.
"That's not possible. The leader just asked me to come over to teach, but I didn't agree." Zheng Xuan immediately became alert. He said he would do nothing about politics or strategy.
Not to mention Zhang Yu, even the court and even the general He Jin could not get his allegiance.
But he can be forced to go there. He Jin did it and Yuan Tan did it, and they all succeeded.
Look, Zhang Yu also followed suit and succeeded.
You have to watch carefully. This old man is very bad and will run away if he is not careful.
He Jin ran away secretly that night, and He Jin didn't even have time to be appointed as an official.
Yuan Tan was even more cruel that time, he... ran to another world.
"Don't be so alert, what can I expect you to do?" Zhang Yu sighed, "This matter is also related to you. It is mainly to prepare next year's textbooks. The content will include three categories: enlightenment, numbering and extracurricular reading materials. Among them, enlightenment and teaching materials must be independently used and used every year. Extracurricular reading materials require about two to three books. I hope four of you can help me organize these."
He paused and bewitched: "If it is successfully revised into a book, then the textbooks of the children in Taiping will come from these two books for a long time. If they are even leaked, then maybe all children in the world will be enlightened by these two books. What this means, the four of you should understand."
Children and enlightenment textbooks all over the world come from their own hands. Isn’t this obvious?
Before Zhang Yu finished speaking, he could feel the breathing of the four of them becoming a little more rapid.
"Slowly, if you hear it right just now, what the leader said should be 'Book'?" Guo Yuan obviously heard something amazing.
"Oh!" Zhang Yu looked for it, and then handed over a book, "This is the "Analects of Confucius" copied from our paper. Please appreciate it!"
To be precise, it was a test piece he copied himself, after all, the paper has not been successfully produced on a large scale.
However, when they determine the content, the first batch of production should be produced in the workshop.
Anyway, he will acquire the initial output no matter how much it is. It is too short of this thing, and it is not enough, including straw paper!
Paper? The four of them were stunned. The Yellow Turban Thief did not rebel and went to make paper. Is it because they were ignorant or the times have changed?
No, no, no, no matter what, Zhang Yu is too comfortable. He doesn’t look like a group of thieves who want to rebel!
I had to take it over and took a look, but I found that the paper was smooth and not as rough as Cai Hou's paper.
The paper also looks flexible and smooth, mainly elastic, which means it will not break or break easily.
At this point, this paper can be said to have surpassed Cai Hou's paper.
Looking at the ink traces again, it is very full and has no penetration and becomes messy. As a text carrier, it can be said to be very outstanding.
Finally, I have to sigh at the level of this handwriting that can be established...
Each page of paper is divided into lines with vertical lines, and the characters are limited to each line, and it also feels like looking at bamboo slips.
The main thing is that it is not abrupt and is very consistent with reading habits.
There are characters on both sides of the paper, which means that the thickness of the paper is good, and then the ink mark is not penetrated.
Such two-sided writing will not affect reading.
According to the three hundred words per page, there are words on both sides of the front and back, and the calculation is calculated in total. A book of "The Analects of Confucius" only has about thirty pieces of paper, and more than sixty pages can be written. Considering the thickness of the paper, this book of "The Analects of Confucius" is indeed a bit thin.
If it is converted into bamboo slips, it will cost about twenty pounds. Now it is a light book, which means it is self-evident.
"How much does this kind of paper yield?" Zheng Xuan took the initiative to ask for it for the first time, and scholars were not nervous about this.
"At present, if it is a workshop in Taiping Town, there are only more than 100 such papers per month. However, workshops have been opened in several places. Starting next month, 50,000 sheets of paper can be produced per month!"
"Too little, too little!" Zheng Xuan felt that the output was not enough. So a piece of paper was only more than 600 words. To eliminate the mistakes, it also consumed more paper.
"I'm talking about a big one. According to this specification, the output will be at least tripled!" Zhang Yu added.
"But I don't know how much this paper costs?" Zheng Xuan asked, "Two hundred thousand pieces of paper are enough."
"The cost of each piece is one tenth of that of Cai Hou's paper!" Zhang Yu replied. If labor and time were to be included, the cost could be further reduced. Of course, the procurement of bamboo is also one of the costs.
But to be honest, bamboo paper is a product, and whether it will be cheaper for paper made from straw and mulberry skin is also trying.
The cheapest one is of course straw paper, but that thing is definitely not suitable for writing.
"How did it do it?" Zheng Xuan was not happy at the moment, but felt a little heartbroken. Why did such a good thing be made by a thief? Obviously, if it could be promoted, there would be many more scholars among the people!
Just for this, it would be no problem to be named a marquis of Zhang Yu. At least it is a Duting/xianghou or something.
It is hard to say now that knowing that this was created by thieves, there must be a group of scholars with extreme points who will use this as an excuse to oppose promoting this paper. In fact, every dynasty has things like this that reverses history.
I don’t think about the benefits of this thing to the people at all. I objected purely for the sake of opposition, and called it political correctness.
"I used some unique craftsmanship..." Zhang Yu smiled mysteriously, "But the workshop is in the town, everything here is open to you four, as long as you are interested. By the way, I have kept my promise. Master Zheng will not be without Xinyi and will run away privately in less than three years, right? For example, the excuse is that you don't need to keep your promise to the thief..."
"I'm just saying a word, how could I do such a thing?" Zheng Xuan was speechless. Zhang Yu blocked his way here, especially in front of two disciples and one scholar.
