The days when I was an obstetrician and gynecologist in Chang'an

Chapter 306 See also time travel
After returning to Li's house, Mrs. Li took the wooden box that Shijiu was carrying, and asked Li Sanniang, "What is this? It's quite heavy."

Li Sanniang took the cloth towel that Lu Zhuer handed over, wiped her hands and said to Aunt Li: "It was given to me by the person who came to see me today, it is a set of white porcelain tea set.

Let's take it apart and use it, or keep it for our family to drink tea with. "

Sister-in-law Li understands it well. You must know that the Li family medical hall has been open for so long, and Li's father has practiced medicine for decades. It is true that patients and their families often send some slightly more expensive gifts to the door.

Mrs. Li thought, Li Sanniang is also a doctor, so it is normal for someone to give her some gifts.

After playing with Luzhu'er for a while, it's time for dinner.

The most surprising thing was that Brother Li returned home early today.

"Brother, you haven't had dinner with us for a while."

Brother Li cleaned his hands, picked up Luzhu'er beside Li Sanniang's legs, threw Luzhu'er into the sky with all his strength, and then caught it when it fell to the height of Brother Li's neck.

Going back and forth like this several times made Luzhuer laugh out loud.

Mother Li packed up from the next door and came in. As soon as she walked to the edge of the yard, she saw Brother Li's operation like this, and she immediately burst into flames.

"Boss!

Put Pearl down!

What a man!
Hutou is good at the age of marrying a wife, and he is going to be a Weng, and he is still here to tease the children regardless of whether it is serious or not! "

Mother Li ran over in just three or two steps, and carefully snatched Lu Zhu'er from Brother Li's arms.

"Grandma's darling, are you scared? Your uncle really has no idea."

"Grandma, how about Uncle, Pearl likes this."

Brother Li was scratching the back of his head, standing still and listening to Mother Li's reprimand obediently.

On the contrary, Xiao Shiro, who had been staring at the side all the time, jumped out at this time, walked to Brother Li's lap, hugged Brother Li's thigh and begged: "Uncle, I want this too, I am older than Luzhu'er, I am not afraid, uncle hugged him." I fly."

Brother Li laughed again, put his hands under Xiao Shiro's armpit, and threw Xiao Shiro into the air with a "whoosh", and then caught him firmly when he fell. Repeated this several times, the yard was full It was Koshiro's cheerful laughter.

After dinner, when the family gathered in the main hall to gossip, Brother Li took out a book and handed it to Li Sanniang.

"Nuo, I found a bookstore for the manuscript you gave me, and they were pretty quick, but they gave out a sample book within a few days.

You see, if it's correct, I'll place an order and have it printed. "

Li Sanniang hurriedly put down the fruit in her hand, and took the handed over by Brother Li. This book was stapled up with thread, the cover was indigo blue, and the book "Getting Started with Wen Po" was written vertically in big italic characters, and she read it carefully.

While flipping through, Li Sanniang was astonished, is this another time-traveling colleague starting to fan the little wings?
Li Sanniang remembered that she had handed over her manuscript to Brother Li more than ten days ago, and asked him to help him find a bookstore and printing bureau to see if he could print some books at his own expense.

You know, why in the past, knowledge could only be possessed by the upper class?
One of the most important reasons is that books are expensive.

Before movable type printing, every book was hand-copied. This cost has increased, so why are books not expensive?

It was later, after Emperor Wu came to the throne, who knew who made the engraved and printed books, which was able to supply books to those who had rich families and children who read books.

Even the quarterly brochures issued by the Imperial Medical Office come from the official printing bureau.

But Li Sanniang did not expect that now there is a fully technical movable type printing?

Li Sanniang wouldn't believe it if it was said that no colleagues from time-traveling made a move.

"Second brother, how can the sample book be produced so quickly? It's not a few days before I give you this manuscript."

Second brother Li knew that Li Sanniang would ask such a question. You must know that when he took this manuscript to the bookstore and asked, they said that as long as he was willing to pay the money, he would be ranked immediately.

Brother Li paid the money, but within a few days, he was shocked to get such a sample booklet.

"We still don't have any information about this. I don't know which clever person thought of carving out the characters one by one in advance, and then combining them for typesetting. The people in this bookstore said that this is called movable type printing. .”

Li Sanniang flipped through the pages and saw a blank page, and the second brother Li also looked up and saw it, and explained to Li Sanniang: "Those drawings you drew, people say that you can print them if you want, but you have to pay more. It will take some time, after all, they also need to find a craftsman to carve it before printing, and it will take a lot of work."

Li Sanniang expressed her understanding, and asked Li Erxiong: "This money is worth spending, and it should be spent.

Is the money I gave to my second brother before enough?
I will get some more for the second brother later, the manuscripts of the techniques I wrote earlier, the second brother will also take it, and help me print some, just in time, and here together at that time," Li Sanniang held the booklet in her hand After shaking it twice, "Send it to others, and learn together, it's also cheap. "

Brother Li was curious about what the two of them were talking about, so he raised his hand and took the book from Li Sanniang's hand to read.

"Please trouble the second brother, I will treat the second brother to dinner later, and reward the second brother."

Second brother Li smiled and didn't reply, but he felt ironic (yù) in his heart, feeling that Li Sanniang hadn't ignored his efforts.

"I'm not at home these days, but I don't know that you guys have done such a big thing.

If it is useful to go to the big brother's place, just ask. "

"Hee hee, I know, don't be polite to big brother."

The Li family looked happy and harmonious, but everywhere in Chang'an City, each family had its own joys and sorrows.

The Xing family, study room.

Xing Yu was reading a book under the lamp. Although it was printed vertically and in traditional block letters, the content inside was Buddhist scriptures.

This is also since the Xing family Xiaolang was lost and recovered on the night of the last Wanshou Festival, Mrs. Xing has such a hobby, copying Buddhist scriptures.

"The moveable type printing has been done. I'm just opening a supermarket. Do I have to expand it, or I won't be able to catch up with my colleagues from across the world."

Xing Yu was thinking about this when she heard a knock on the door, and then Mrs. Xing came in with a tea tray.

"Master, have a bowl of pear soup."

West Market, the back house of a shop.

Chang Siyuan was sitting on the round table in a short brown dress, reading a book by the lampstand. The name on the cover page of the book was the manuscript written by Li Sanniang, "Introduction to Wenpo".

"Hey, isn't this the job of a midwife? It's about women giving birth.

This is Li Sanniang, maybe she was an obstetrician before time travel. "

Daming Palace, Xuande Palace.

Emperor Wu was also looking at Xue Yao's recent "Inhuman Records" presented by Xue Yao on the lampstand. Facing the small notes of seven or eight people with abnormalities that appeared again, Emperor Wu thought to himself, "It can be regarded as exerting strength."
