Zhizhang Datang

Chapter 174 Hugging Thighs (Adding 0421 for the head "yu55")

Coming out of Qin Qiong's house, Lin Sen rode on the takin and ran towards the house. During the confrontation with Qin Qiong just now, he watched the colored flat chess pieces kept hitting on the board, and saw all kinds of chess pieces on it. With different words, Lin Sen suddenly figured out a problem that bothered him.

Isn't the engraving and printing of books very expensive, and the engraving master who seems to know this technology, and the poor book printing workshops are all in the hands of the family. I am afraid that even if they have enough money, they want to publish them Those two elementary school books are also very difficult.

That being the case, wouldn't it be over if we opened a book printing house ourselves?Abandoning the time-consuming and labor-intensive engraving technology, we can use the movable type printing technology widely used in later generations.

You don’t have to worry about your lifeblood being in other people’s hands, you can only let them decide, you can publish a book whenever you want, and you can also compete with those monopolistic printing houses and lower the prices of books that are still high. Pulling it down a little bit can be regarded as benefiting the scholars of the world, and naturally it is closer to the goal of digging out the foundation of the family.

Now that he had thought of the idea, Lin Sen couldn't wait to give it a try.Lin Sen did not use the movable clay type that was used when movable type printing was first invented. This clay movable type does have some advantages in plate making and typesetting. If they are integrated into one, you can use the same method to separate the movable type later. After all, it is made of clay, which is more resistant to fire, and the cost is relatively low.

But there is an obstacle that Lin Sen can't break through, which is the printing ink. The existing ink may be difficult to adhere to the clay characters, so the clarity of the printed things is naturally worrying.

However, this problem is eliminated with wooden movable type, and the ink used for the existing engraving block can be well colored on wooden movable type.It's nothing more than spending more time on typesetting and plate making.

Of course, Lin Sen also has another reason for choosing wooden movable type. He can directly control the trees to grow into the shape that each wooden movable type should have, and then just like picking fruits, he can remove them all and modify it.

You don't need to spend so much effort to engrave the commonly used Chinese characters one by one, but they must be in traditional Chinese characters. You can also choose your favorite fonts at will, and you can make them look as beautiful as you want.Then choose a hard wood such as iron birch, and the problem of the wooden movable type not being durable will no longer exist.

Under Lin Sen's careful control, two sets of commonly used characters were soon placed in front of him, one set was Feibai style imitated from Li Shimin's imperial edict, and the other set used Song typeface which was said to be more suitable for printing.

Only movable type can't complete the printing. Lin Sen made another disc, the kind with a bearing in the middle that can be turned and rotated at will, and arranged all the movable type in a good way. Because of the inherent habit, he obviously chose It comes in the order of pinyin, and then according to your own needs, you can pick out a large piece of movable type one by one to make a plate.

On each type, there are standard buckles reserved by Lin Sen, which are similar to the buckles on the wooden floor. Just like playing a jigsaw puzzle, snap them all into a whole, and fix them on the bottom plate at the same time.

He brushed the engraving block that he asked someone to buy on it with ink, laid out the paper, and then gently swept it over with a brush. Lin Sen carefully peeled off the paper full of anxiety, nervousness and anticipation.Looking at it, Lin Sen couldn't help but waved his fist excitedly.

"Hey! It's done! Sure enough, I'm such a genius!" Lin Sen proudly hummed a ditty, and even twisted twice to count as dancing.

It was thanks to him squatting in the secret room by himself that he did this, so that the people around him didn't treat him as a bewildered man, so they poured some black dog blood on him.

But after being excited for a while, Lin Sen began to think about another problem. This movable type printing method seems to be much more hated than those two elementary school books. Those people, when the time comes, they won't be able to fight their lives with him.

With his small stature, he can't hold back all the aristocratic families' counterattacks. If this kind of artifact wants to be released, and if he wants to maximize its enormous power, he will definitely not be able to put it in his own hands. This must be death. .

Think about Bi Sheng who invented movable type printing in later generations, it seems that he just found a reason and was thrown into oblivion in prison. It seems that all the scholars have selectively forgotten such a person with great achievements Lin Sen didn't want to fall into such a situation himself.

So who is it better to work with?Forget about Cheng Yaojin and the others, after all, they are so close to him, it would be unkind to cheat them with this thing.

The main reason is that they will not be able to handle those giants. In terms of background, they must be much worse than the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs. There is really no need for them to take this risk.

So who is it most beneficial to have this thing?Just looking at Li Chengqian's performance in the last two visits, it's not hard to understand that this is obviously what Li Shimin, the emperor, yearns for the most, and this is obviously the biggest boss in the world, so it's impossible not to pull him.Not to mention, in the future, there should be a few more royal printing houses to compete with the aristocratic family.

However, this kind of artifact cannot be donated so simply, it should be exchanged for a good price anyway.

But how can we let them know that there is such a thing, so that they can take the initiative to ask for it?After all, it is too easy to get, and it is not always easy for people to cherish, but those things that are obtained after going through hardships and obstacles will appear extraordinarily precious.

Lin Sen is really not good at playing with the mind, so after thinking about it, he should hold this movable type printing in his hand for the time being, and wait until the time is right.

While he was busy tinkering with movable type printing, those farmers who were going to start a business had already mastered the snacks they selected, and they also made their own dining cars under Lin Sen's suggestion. You can leave your belongings, and when you set up a stall, you can start work after a little tidying up, which is extremely convenient.

Lin Sen, the head of the family, must encourage the farmers and tell them not to be aggressive when they go out. If there is any problem, they can go to Qin Qiong's family for help.

These people are basically going to Chang'an City for a while. In such a big Chang'an City, it will definitely be no problem to digest their new snacks. If they are scattered, there will be no situation where they will push each other's business. By the way, they can also cover The larger the scope, the more information is collected.

They are more like a big net cast by Lin Sen. While collecting a lot of money, they also need to collect more information. At the same time, they also have the task of Internet talents that Lin Sen has given. Invest more and let them drive a larger intelligence network.

　I finally completed the tipping and updating of my old friend yu0421, and I feel like I have lost my mind.But this time another old friend "Xiaobai in the Book Shortage" is also a million rewards, plus the 400 yuan red envelope given by the starling, this is still owed to everyone for five chapters plus updates, I will definitely work hard to get it done as soon as possible.

　　Thanks to all my friends for their support, and now that this one has been updated, I naturally have to call crazy for myself, subscribe and reward, old irons.
