Chapter 454 Publication
"Huanghuang's masterpiece..."

After reading the book, the three of them gave comments at the same time.

"Let's not mention the teaching and educating people in the first half, but Cuilan, who combines knowledge and action in the second half, can be named Wenzong." Li Gang said with emotion.

Wen Zong is a great master in the literary world, which is the highest praise for scholars.

Yue Shan was embarrassed in his heart, but said modestly on the surface: "Mr. Li is too famous, too good. Do you think there is anything that needs to be changed?"

"Every word is pearls..." Wang Ji.

"A thousand gold is difficult and easy..." Kong Yingda.

"I haven't been able to find out the taboo." Li Gang answered in this way.

Obviously, he had other opinions but with reservations.This is normal, and it is strange that a great Confucian has no opinions of his own.

There must be some places in the book "Education" that are not written or not satisfactory to him, but those are each person's own understanding, and it is impossible to say who is right and who is wrong.So he didn't find any flaws in this aspect.

What he helped to check was whether there were any taboos in this book, and whether there were any problems in logic.I did the same thing when I checked the Analects of Confucius.

Since the three of them said there was no problem, Yue Shan put his heart into his stomach.Afterwards, he found a book printing house and asked them to make new engraving and printing books overnight.

Knowing that my boss's new book was coming out at this time, the people in the book printing shop were very attentive and recruited most of the workers, so it was convenient to have a book printing house at home.

Making blocks, ink, paper, printing, cutting, binding...

With the experience of printing the Analects of Confucius last time, the people in the printing workshop are also familiar with several procedures, which are methodically but quickly advanced.

But after all, it is a 17-word masterpiece, and it takes a long time to engrave and engrave it, so don't even think about publishing it for a while.

Naturally, such a big move cannot be concealed from others, and soon the news of Yue Shan's new book being printed was spread.

The oppressed and breathless new school seemed to be boiling, and they were extremely excited.The old school also knew that a new war was about to start, and prepared for the battle in advance. Among them, the He family in Jiangning was the most active.

The reason is very simple. The dispute between the old and new schools can even last for hundreds of years without a winner.Even if the winner is decided, the loser will still be a hero after a new look.

Only the He family can't lose.

As the inheritors of "Book of Rites", they questioned Yue Shan's dismantling of "Book of Rites". If Yue Shan really wrote a great work based on "The Great Learning", then the He family would be beaten.

Scholars all over the world will also question the He family. The "Book of Rites" that your family has studied for hundreds of years is not as deep as a teenager's understanding. What qualifications do you have to control the interpretation of "Book of Rites"?
At that time, the "Book of Rites" that their ancestors have studied for generations will be questioned, which will be a fatal injury to a family that inherits knowledge.

In fact, when Yue Shan announced that he would write a book based on the university, many people in the He family regretted it, and they should not stand on the front line to question Yue Shan.Wouldn't it be nice to hide behind and release a cold arrow?
There is no one who sells regret medicine in the world, and they did not expect that Yue Shan would directly write a new book as a counterattack.

You are not playing cards according to common sense.In the past hundreds of years, everyone had any academic disputes, didn't they all fight with each other and finally reach a consensus, and enjoy the privileges together?Why are you so serious?
At this time, Yue Shan was different from the past. When he wrote his first Confucianism, he needed help from others to sell it.Now, just a little news, the whole literary world is waiting for his new book to come out.

Many booksellers in the capital and surrounding areas also went to the book printing shop to order books in advance.Before the book was printed, tens of thousands of copies had already been sold.

Seeing this data, Yue Shan was a little surprised. Tang Dynasty even started pre-ordering?Still sold tens of thousands of copies?
This is the Tang Dynasty, when the literacy rate was only in single digits, so much could be sold in Chang'an and its surrounding areas alone... Scholars are not short of money, at least most of them are.

The industries under Yueshan's name all adopt incentive measures, and everyone with good performance can get a commission.Those workers went crazy after seeing this order, and volunteered to work overtime, just to get the book printed out earlier.

After more than 20 days, the first batch of books were finally printed and put on the market, and they were sold out on the same day.

Those who bought the book were overjoyed, and those who didn't buy the book sighed, and then began to ask people they knew who bought it and borrowed a copy.So Chang'an Zhigui's drama was staged again.

This time, Yueshan's paper mill also made a fortune. They had stockpiled a large amount of paper in advance, and at this time, they were sold out at a low price.

Speaking of which, this papermaking workshop had a hard time, and Yue Shan asked them to study three kinds of paper.Toilet paper is easy to research, but this thing is an idea, it is too easy to imitate, and there are certain problems in promotion.

By the time everyone has accepted toilet paper, the market is already full of imitations.

And no matter how cheap toilet paper is, it still costs money to buy. The customer base is either rich or expensive, and most people are reluctant to use it.How much can these rich people spend alone?So it didn't make much money.

The special paper Chengxintang paper has not been successfully researched until now, let alone making money, it is losing money every day.

The only thing that makes money is ordinary paper. The paper used by the academy and the book printing house are all provided by the paper workshop, and the surplus is sold on the market.However, these ordinary papers are too competitive and have no brand support, so they are not easy to sell.

The last time Yueshan published a book, they didn't expect it to be so popular, and they didn't prepare for the opportunity to make money in advance.

This time, as soon as I heard that his new book was being printed, I immediately worked overtime to print more paper, just to wait for this day.

Sure enough, I made a fortune.

Closer to home.

A large part of the first batch of "Education" was bought by people from aristocratic families. They were powerful and powerful, and they could get the books in advance by simply saying hello to the shopkeeper of the bookstore.

As soon as I got the book, I organized people to interpret it, trying to find loopholes to attack.

However, after they read the contents of the book overnight, they were all silent.

Those who can be invited to criticize are all people with real talents and real learning, so they can naturally distinguish good from bad. The book "Education" can no longer be described as good or bad, it is completely establishing a school.

Although they didn't want to admit it, they knew very well that there was another Confucian classic.

The He family...a moment of silence for you.

And the Patriarch of the He Family in Jiangning also got the book as quickly as possible, and when he finished reading it, his vision went dark and he lost consciousness.

When he woke up again, he began to cry bitterly, blaming himself for being sorry to his ancestors.

On the contrary, the supporters of the new school were excited after reading this book, and many scholars were excited and shouted and jumped on the street like madmen.
