On the second day.
The sky had just turned white, in front of Ye Yun's tent.
Xue San rubbed his hands, as if the morning wind was exceptionally cold, making his thin body somewhat unbearable.
He was holding a bag in his hand.
Inside, there were small wooden blocks with words carved on them.
It could be seen that he had carved it very seriously.
Every word was spoken with care!
Ye Yun walked out of the tent and saw Xue San. He was slightly stunned and gestured for him to move forward.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?"
Looking at Xue San's appearance, Ye Yun ordered his subordinates to find a piece of clothing and put it on him.
It was close to autumn, and the morning was still a little cold.
"Not long, not long!"
Xue San shook his head repeatedly." I've already completed what you instructed me to do.”
He took the wooden blocks from Xue San's hands, weighed them up and down, and nodded in satisfaction." Not bad!”
"This is ten strings of money, take it!"
He called someone back to the tent and took out some ten strings of money before handing it to Xue San.
"No, I can't! No!"
Xue San shook his head in fear." Your Excellency is different from the other lords. It is my honor to work for a lord like you! I can't take this money…"
"What's the difference?"
Ye Yun looked at Xue San, who didn't seem to be pretending to decline, and asked with some doubt.
"Sir, you…asked for my name…"
Xue San suddenly knelt on the ground and lowered his head. He said in fear and trepidation," No lord has ever asked for my name…"
"Is that all?"
"I dare not speak nonsense!"
……
Ye Yun came from the modern era, so he didn't have much concept of status.
Seeing Xue San, he suddenly reacted.
He was in ancient times!
The difference in social class between people was too great!
"If something happens to you in the future, you can come to Chang 'an to find me! Remember, I am Ye Yun!"
Ye Yun didn't force Xue San to give the money, but said so.
"Yes, sir!“
When Xue San heard this, his entire body trembled. His eyes were filled with excitement as he suddenly knelt on the ground.
"I understand! Thank you, sir!"
immediately
Xue San kowtowed solemnly again before leaving!
"Tell Li Jing and Cheng Yaojin to come and see me!”
Looking at Xue San's excited back, Ye Yun was slightly lost in thought,
Then, he reacted and spoke to the guard beside him.
"Yes!"
The guard accepted the order.
Very soon,
The two of them rushed over!
"State Preceptor, is this what you asked the carpenter to make?”
Cheng Yaojin fiddled with the wooden blocks and was a little puzzled." What's the use of this thing? Could it be…The state preceptor is preparing to make a seal, but he doesn't need so much!”
On the other side, Li Jing was also confused.
Ye Yun felt a little helpless when he saw the two of them like this.
However, under his mindset, he didn't want them to!
After all, engraving printing was already very common in the Tang Dynasty, and the invention was even more difficult to study, but it was definitely much earlier than the Tang Dynasty!
However, even so, movable type printing had to wait until the Song Dynasty. A commoner named Bi Sheng came up with it when he saw his child playing with mud.
Helpless, Ye Yun could only find a military book, and then from the thousands of pieces of wood, a few jumped out from time to time and placed them in a fixed position.
Ye Yun's movements were neither fast nor slow, but it made the two people on the other side anxious!
"State Preceptor, the most important thing now is the chaos of the aristocratic families.”
Seeing Ye Yun's " neglect of his duties ", Li Jing was anxious. He could not help but cup his hands and say," Someone must come out and bear the wrath of the aristocratic families. I've long been prepared!"”
"No rush!"
Ye Yun said lightly. He fixed the wooden blocks in a frame, then picked up a brush and gently smeared some ink on them.
"Hmm?"
Seeing Ye Yun's action, Li Jing and Cheng Yaojin were even more confused. They really didn't understand what the state preceptor was doing.
Ye Yun naturally ignored them. Instead, he took out a piece of white paper and gently covered the wooden block. After the ink on the wooden block was printed on the white paper, he picked it up again.
"This…"
When they saw the words on the paper, Cheng Yaojin and Li Jing looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes!
Suddenly,
They looked at those small wooden blocks, and countless thoughts instantly jumped out of their minds!
So…printing could be done like this?!
Instead of carving it piece by piece, it was divided into many small pieces, and each small piece had a word carved on it.
As long as they needed it, they could freely combine them!
In this way, a set of words could be used anywhere!
This was…
A slight change would cause the world to turn upside down!
"I call it movable type printing!”
Ye Yun spoke lightly and looked at Li Jing." Apothecary, do you still remember what I told you yesterday?”
"I…remember!"
Li Jing nodded heavily, his face full of excitement!
"Woodblock printing is expensive. Once there's a mistake, we have to start all over again.”
Li Ji forcefully suppressed the excitement in his heart and continued,
"But…movable type printing is different. You just…need to rearrange and reassemble it! There is…no…mistake at all, so…"
"Therefore, with it, it is impossible for the aristocratic families to monopolize the books!”
Ye Yun borrowed Li Jing's words and slowly said,
"Knowledge is no longer exclusive to aristocratic families. The commoners also had the chance to read and write.
In the long run, everyone in the Great Tang would be like dragons!!”
