Chapter 439 There are too many black clouds!(1/2)

"See Your Majesty!"

When Li Shimin and others walked into the house, Li Xuan came down from the second floor.

"It seems that this time I came here recklessly and disturbed Xuanba's little day!"

Li Shimin has long been used to Li Xuan's attitude.

Even though it has been more than a year, his third brother's attitude towards him is still as cold as ever.

"I wonder why Your Majesty ran so far in a cold weather?" Li Xuan asked.

"Xuanba, I heard that you built a bookstore in Lijiazhuang?"

Li Xuan asked directly, and Li Shimin didn't take any more turns.

“That’s right!”

Li Xuan was not surprised by this.

Li Shimin: "And, in your bookstore, you can create a hundred books in a day?"

Li Xuan couldn't help but be stunned and subconsciously said, "Who said that?"

"Forehead!"

Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others were all stunned.

Li Xuan said directly: "My bookstore can create five hundred books in one day!"

"It's actually so many?"

Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling were shocked again.

"If Your Majesty wants to see it, I will take Your Majesty to take a look!"

Li Xuan said.

“So great!”

Li Shimin hurriedly said.

Seeing this, Li Xuan stood up without saying much.

Li Xuan did not want to hide anything about these things in Lijiazhuang.

After all, since he was named King of Jin, Li Xuan had never touched the house of Jin, from the housekeeper to the servant, from a group of officials to the personal guards, and there must be various suspicions arranged by Li Shimin.

Moreover, Crown Prince Li Chengqian also became his disciple.

If you want to hide it, you can't hide it, and there is no need to hide it.

"See the king!"

Soon, a few people came outside the papermaking workshop.

After seeing Li Xuan and others, the guards around the papermaking workshop quickly saluted.

"I will take His Majesty and others in to take a look!"

Li Xuan explained, and before he could give the guards a chance to react, he took Li Shimin and others into it.

"I have met the king and all the gentlemen!"

In the papermaking workshop, there were still several ink-controllers carving printed boards.

In the printing house, Ji Wen brought several other ink-controllers to print books page by page.

Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others who saw this situation for the first time, even Li Chengqian and Li Baoding, who even saw this, could not help but stare at the eyes wide and look weird on their faces after seeing it.

"A single page will come out with just one stroke!"

"One person can create hundreds of books in a day!"

"No wonder the Master was able to create two rooms of books in just a few days!"

“…”

After a while, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others came to their senses.

"What you see today is not allowed to disclose anything to the public!"

Li Shimin said with a solemn look on his face.

"Yes, your Majesty!"

Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others nodded repeatedly.

They naturally knew very well that if the people of the aristocratic families knew about the things in this small workshop, they would have to make a big deal.

"Xuanba, what's this technique?" Li Shimin asked.

This kind of printing technique is obviously different from the woodblock printing technique controlled by the palace.

"Your Majesty, this is movable type printing technology. Each character is a separate printing board. These printing boards can be combined into the size of a page of paper, and then printed ink!"

Li Xuan introduced, "In addition, if you feel this is troublesome, you can also carve a stone slab separately and print it on the stone slab. However, this requires extremely high engraving technology and is very troublesome. If you make mistakes, the entire printed board must be re-carved!"

"Mobile type printing..."

Li Shimin looked at the skillful movements of Ji Wen and other ink-controllers, and printed a page as soon as he brushed it, and couldn't help but nodded slightly.

“As its name!”

On the side, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others nodded repeatedly.

Then, thinking of something, Li Shimin continued, "I wonder how Xuanba learned about the technique of printing movable type?"

"Um?"

Li Xuan was stunned and looked at Li Shimin in confusion, "What does your majesty mean?"

He could feel that Li Shimin had something in his words.

"Xuanba, as far as I know, at present, there are only one kind of printing technology in the palace and a few aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty, which is the kind of woodblock printing that Xuanba mentioned." Li Shimin said slowly.

Li Xuan was also shocked when he heard this.

"Your Majesty knows about woodblock printing?"

"This is naturally. The books in the Tianxia Library are printed in woodblocks. Could it be that Xuanba doesn't know?"

Seeing Li Xuan's expression, Li Shimin felt a little relieved.

Then, when he thought that Li Xuan didn't know that the books in Tianxia Library were also printed in woodblocks, he was shocked again.

"Not only do I know, but even the five surnames and seven families have controlled this kind of printing technology!"

On the side, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others were not surprised at all.

Obviously, they all know about printing.

Hearing this, Li Xuan was stunned.

After so long, he had forgotten the world library, and as for woodblock printing, he had long forgotten it!

Then, when I remembered something, my eyes were even more confused.

"Since that's the case, why doesn't Your Majesty use woodblock printing books and cultivate more officials, so that officials from those aristocratic families will control half of the court?"

"Do you know that most of the officials in the Tang Dynasty are from aristocratic families!"

Li Shimin smiled helplessly, "In a state, except for the governor and the governor of a state, how many people are from poor families from top to bottom?"

"And, it's not that easy to cultivate an official? It's not that with books, those poor people can read and read, and they also need to write, and they also need to spend money on pen, ink, paper and inkstone. There is no money at home, so no one dares to read like that!"

As he said that, Li Shimin remembered the situation in Lijiazhuang and sighed subconsciously.

"How many families were there in the Tang Dynasty, but they were as lucky as the farmers in Lijiazhuang?"

Hearing this, Li Xuan couldn't help but feel a little silent.

Indeed, I have never felt it and I don’t know how much influence the families in the Tang Dynasty were.

If you want to study, you have to spend more money. You can only provide a scholar with all your family’s efforts!

However, according to Li Shimin, since those aristocratic families also control woodblock printing, he no longer needs to worry too much about his movable type printing technique.

After finding that Li Xuan was printing books using printing techniques, Li Shimin also felt relieved.

Then, in Li Xuan's house, he talked to Li Xuan about the transportation team matters with Fang Xuanling and others.

Now, the only four-wheeled carriages in the Tang Dynasty first went to Lingzhou, Dingxiang and other places to transport food, grass, supplies and other supplies to Li Jing's army.

Therefore, the transportation teams prepared for those great families still need to wait until the Shaofu Supervisor will create a new carriage after the Shaofu Supervisor will build a new carriage.

Li Shimin and others left with joy after taking a walk around Lijiazhuang.

The village returned to peace.

...

Soon, the twelfth lunar month began.

From early morning, the whole sky was black and black.
To be continued...
