Like paper making, printing was one of the four great inventions of ancient China.
In ancient times, printing was divided into two types: block printing and movable type printing.
Having suddenly obtained the printing technique, Meng Yu was thinking about how to make use of it to maximize his benefits.
If he promoted the printing technique in the State of Qin, it would definitely cause a huge sensation. However, Meng Yu did not want to promote the printing technique at all.
He would not do something that was not profitable if he promoted printing.
The greatest use of printing was to print books. However, Meng Yu was not interested in printing books at all.
Moreover, printing books was time-consuming and not very profitable.
However, this printing technique was not useless to Meng Yu. On the contrary, it was very useful to him.
Meng Yu had already thought of the use of the printing technique, which was to print silver notes.
It was time for the silver notes to appear in the Qin Dynasty.
The current coins of the Qin Dynasty were only gold coins and copper coins. However, the forging of gold coins and copper coins was more troublesome. Forging copper coins and gold coins required a large amount of manpower and material resources.
And printing silver notes could save manpower and material resources.
In addition, although the smelting technology at this time was more mature, the production of gold and copper was not high. Therefore, the number of gold coins and copper coins was not many.
The amount of gold coins and copper coins could not meet the needs of the people, which would affect the development of the economy.
The biggest drawback of using gold coins and copper coins was that it was inconvenient to carry them. Ten thousand taels of gold weighed five to six hundred catties. If it was tens of thousands of taels of gold or hundreds of thousands of taels of gold, it would be very troublesome to transport them from one place to another. Moreover, there was the risk of being robbed during the process.
The printing of silver notes could release gold coins and copper coins. Moreover, silver notes were easy to carry, making it even more convenient to use silver notes.
"Start the lottery draw!"
Meng Yu began his fourth lottery draw, which was also his last chance for the day.
The needle spun quickly and finally stopped.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Summoning Card!”
The system's voice sounded. Meng Yu's eyes lit up, and he was quite excited.
He had previously used a Summoning Card to summon a powerful character like Ximen Chuixue. He was looking forward to what kind of character he would be able to summon this time.
Right now, he only had Ximen Chuixue as an expert. He was clearly lacking manpower. Now, he could summon experts again.
"Host, do you want to use the Summoning Card now?”The system's voice sounded.
"Use it!"
"Begin summoning!"
As the system's voice sounded, the space fluctuated slightly, and an old figure appeared from the space.
This time, it was an old monk.
The monk had a withered body and was holding a broom in his hand. He was no longer young, and his beard and eyebrows were all white.
He was wearing a green monk robe and had a graceful bearing. He looked like a grandmaster.
"Sweeping Monk greets Master!"
The green-robed monk put his palms together and said respectfully.
[Name: Sweeping Monk]
Age: 70
[Realm: Peak Grandmaster (Ultimate Grandmaster)]
[Martial arts: Shaolin's 72 Ultimate Arts, Yijin Classic, and many Shaolin ultimate arts]
[Loyalty: 100 (Unwavering, never betraying)]
Meng Yu did not expect to summon the sweeping monk this time. This was already amazing. The sweeping monk could be said to be the most powerful existence in Jin Yong's Wuxia.
There were many powerful characters in Jin Yong's martial arts that had not officially appeared, such as Sword Demon Dugu Qiubai, Huang Shang, Murong Kongcheng, etc. They were indeed very powerful, but they only existed in people's memories. There was no direct understanding of their strength.
The sweeping monk was the most powerful existence among the eight groups of the Heavenly Dragon. He killed Murong Bo and Xiao Yuanshan in seconds and took Xiao Feng's Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms with his physical body, completely unharmed.
The sweeping monk was equivalent to a half-immortal in Jin Yong's martial arts world.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the summoning skill-Tendon Changing Classic!”
As the system's voice sounded, a huge amount of information surged into his mind.
In an instant, he learned Tendon Changing Classic!
Tendon Changing Classic was a very powerful internal cultivation method. When cultivated to the great success stage, it could have the effect of cleansing the tendons and marrow. It could wash away the impurities in the body and allow the person's physique to be reborn.
"Master! If there's anything you need me to do, please tell me!”the sweeping monk said.
"Sweeping Monk, settle down first. From now on, you only have one mission, and that is to sweep the floor.”Meng Yu said with a smile.
Now, there were only three experts in the Fuma Residence. It was impossible for him and Ximen Chuixue to be in the Fuma Residence all the time. When they were not around, the sweeping monk's role was to protect the Fuma Residence.
Now that Meng Yu had completely offended Lu Buwei, it was very likely that Lu Buwei would send assassins to infiltrate the Fuma's residence to make some moves when Meng Yu was not around.
"Yes, Master!"
The sweeping monk nodded.
Then, Meng Yu arranged a room for the sweeping monk and settled him down.
