What should I do if I am beheaded by the First Emperor at the beginning?

Chapter 54 Engraving and Printing【One update, please recommend】

Chen Ke nodded slightly: "Yes, engraving and printing."

Ying Zheng frowned, still feeling puzzled about something he had never heard of.

"What it is?"

A smile bloomed on Chen Ke's face.

"Your Majesty, didn't I say that before?"

"With woodblock printing, books can be produced in large quantities."

"As the name suggests, he is used to print books."

print?

This word has not actually appeared yet, so Ying Zheng can't understand the meaning of this word.

It's like you can't understand the meaning of the word "klihggj".
Because the word hasn't appeared yet.

For Yingzheng, the word "printing" is like this word.

Chen Ke scratched her head, not knowing how to explain it to Ying Zheng.

"Your Majesty, block printing is actually like a seal."

He took out his seal from his sleeve, and took out a piece of paper from his sleeve.

Chen Ke put the seal on the paper, and then a few words appeared.

"Your Majesty, if you engrave words on a copper plate or a wooden plate, and then paste the paper on it."

"In this way, wouldn't the books come out quickly?"

"This process is called printing."

After hearing this, Ying Zheng had a look of enlightenment flashing across his face.

That's it
If this method is used, isn't it possible to manufacture a large number of books?

So, the problem is back to the thing that the two of them discussed before.

Is it to fool the people, or to open up the wisdom of the people?

This is a problem, and a serious one at that.

Ying Zheng finally sighed.

"If it is as enlightening as you said, how to control this speed?"

Ying Zheng's expression was very serious. He knew that under the wheel of history, any personal power is like a mantis holding a cart.

Back then, Zhao State also tried to stop Qin State, but Qin State's iron forging technology continued to become stronger.

Later, Qin's weapons directly cut off Zhao's weapons on the battlefield.

After that, there is no later.

Zhao Guo became the Handan County of Daqin.

At that time, it was not that no one in Daqin objected to continuing to study wrought iron technology.

Some feel that current technology is good enough.

There is no need to spend so much money on researching wrought iron technology, as long as theirs is better than others?
And this notion, in later history, was proved to be wrong.

Now, almost the same topic was in front of Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng knew that he could only choose what to do.

However, he was still worried about whether the speed could be controlled.

Chen Ke could see the worry in Ying Zheng's heart at a glance, and even smiled.

"Your Majesty, what do you think scholars will do after studying?"

Ying Zheng didn't hesitate at all: "They want to be officials."

Chen Ke nodded: "Yes, they want to be officials."

"If His Majesty holds the power to appoint all officials in the world, what can they do if they want to be officials?"

Ying Zheng looked at Chen Ke and said, "You can only be loyal to me."

Chen Ke took the elevator again: "So, in fact, the last thing His Majesty should be afraid of is that they are studying."

"Because "Learn literary and martial arts, sell to the emperor's family." "

"The talents they read will be given to His Majesty in the end."

"It's all about fighting for Daqin."

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes: "What if they don't want to?"

Chen Ke burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"Don't want to?"

"Your Majesty, my Daqin's million cavalry, are they just for nothing?"

"Without military power and force, no matter how rampant those so-called scholars are, they can only lower their heads!"

"Only under the power of the military can we have political power!"

Chen Ke's words were resounding.

And what he said, Ying Zheng actually understood, but the authorities were fascinated.

In the face of brand-new events that transcend the characteristics of the times, everyone is a temporary "authority fan".

"knock knock"

Ying Zheng knocked on the table in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly.

The aura of the whole person returned to the previous appearance, becoming fierce and terrifying.

"You're right, I hesitated."

"Chen Ke, please make this thing as soon as possible."

"But I have a question."

The recovered Ying Zheng instantly returned to his superior position. He looked at Chen Ke in front of him with a playful expression.

"Even if you come up with woodblock printing, what can you do if you can print a large number of books?"

"Nowadays, the world's scholars, don't they read the most Confucianism?"

Chen Ke smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, woodblock printing and paper are all in your hands. Don't you just print whatever you want?"

"Isn't it true that you want people in the world to read whatever books you want people in the world to read?"

Chen Ke is very confident.

At this time, it was not like later generations, printing presses were very common.

And as long as there is a printing press, you can print things casually, and even organize those things into books.
Of course, this kind of behavior is called illegal publishing in later generations
Now the engraving and printing technology is in the hands of the first emperor, and the papermaking technology is only mastered by the manufacturing department under the first emperor.

That is to say, it is only in the hands of Xia Chen Ke.
Doesn't it mean that what you want people in the world to read, people in the world have to read?
Is it true that some people are so stupid that instead of reading light paper books, they insist on holding a roll of bamboo slips?

If there is such a fool.
It doesn't matter if this kind of fool doesn't transform.

Ying Zheng laughed loudly when he heard the words, he pointed at Chen Ke and said, "I knew it, you slicker has planned it a long time ago."

"Tell me about your plans."

"I also really want to know how you want to take revenge on Confucianism."

"How do you want to restrict Confucianism?"

"If you don't read Confucian books, what else can you read?"

A gloomy look flashed across Ying Zheng's eyes.

The layout of Confucianism took too long.

It started not many years after Confucius died, and it has been hundreds of years until now.

For such a long time, Confucianism has become the choice of most people in the world
Lift it up for reading, lift it up for enlightenment.

Many people would choose Confucian books.
This is why the first emperor set up the doctor's palace.

Among the hundreds of scholars, the rest of the lineages are all hidden in this world, and it is difficult to find out.

Chen Ke smiled slightly.

"Your Majesty, I think you should have guessed it."

"What else can restrain Confucianism, or even make Confucianism unable to fight back?"

"It's nothing more than the three schools of Dharma, Mohism, and Taoism."

What Chen Ke said was indeed the truth, but with some private goods added.

That is legalism.
Back then, "not Confucianism and Mohism" was not just talk
And Confucius asked Lao Tzu "Li" which laid the foundation of Taoism
As for the Legalists
That is to say, in recent years, it is only relying on the east wind of Daqin.

"Oh?"

Ying Zheng's voice was soft.

"Then what do you want to do?"
