It was originally just to relieve Li Yuan's boredom by talking about it, but he didn't expect that Li Yuan quickly became addicted.
Mr.
Luo Guanzhong's strength is powerful, and a wave of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms spreads like wildfire in Jinyang Liushou Mansion.
At first, Li Yuan listened alone.
When it came to the story about Shi Chang's assassination of He Jin, Li Er got in.
He said that his father was sick and no one was around to take care of him, so he had to fulfill his filial duty.
Within two days, Chai Shao also came.
When Li Xiaosan and Li Xiaosi were digging through the window to look at the door, Li Yuan moved the place from the study to the front hall.
Yunhao stood behind the table, with the table in front of him covered with a cloth.
Fans, wake-up wood, and accessories were all available, but there were no towels in these days, but the careful eldest grandson found a piece of snow-white cotton instead.
As a contributor to the white cloth, she had a seat next to Li Er.
Behind her, Changsun Wuji, whose face was bruised and bruised, sat.
After this guy got frostbite, although the frostbite on his face healed, it left some sequelae.
Lao Sun said that this symptom will disappear automatically after three to five years.
"Pa" Xingmu slapped Yunhao, standing behind the table, wearing only his robe.
It is said that "Guan Yunchang thanked Cao Cao for the glass of wine, and holding the Qinglong Yanyue Sword, he went straight to the formation of the two armies and shouted: "Come and give your name to the general."
Amateur cultural life in the Sui Dynasty was boring, even for the nobility.
The Li family has this kind of program, which naturally attracts a lot of people.
As the relationship between Li Yuan and Yang Guang became warmer, Gao Junya and Wang Wei visited him from time to time.
It's just that every time he visits Yunhao during his storytelling time, he never leaves.
As long as Yunhao didn't finish speaking, the two brothers' butts were stuck to the chair as if they were glued.
It's not just the nobles who feel bored, but also the servants.
The servants serving in the hall began to spread the news quietly, and then it spread to the people in the market.
It wasn't until the whole Jinyang was talking about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that Yunhao felt like crying but had no tears left.
How do you calculate my motherfucking copyright fee?
Retribution!
All the novels I read in my previous life were pirated.
Now that I have been pirated, I can only have my teeth knocked out and swallowed.
Seeing the pirated copies all over the world, Yunhao lost his interest in storytelling for several days.
But thinking about Mr.
Luo Guanzhong, Yunhao's mood immediately improved.
Taizu said that economic laws cannot be defeated with sticks.
Yunhao, who has a highly developed economic mind, immediately thought of ways to make money as soon as his eyes rolled.
Of course, you will choke to death if you eat alone.
Yunhao naturally found a reliable partner, Chai Shao and Li Er.
"Why do you want to print the Romance of the Three Kingdoms into a book and sell it all over the Sui Dynasty?"
Chai Shao's eyes widened and he looked at Yun Hao as if he saw a ghost.
"Is there any problem with this?"
Yunhao was a little confused.
He had read a lot in his previous life.
I also read the comic strip of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, which was very attractive with pictures and texts.
The existence of little books has greatly enriched my childhood.
"Well, do you know how much it costs to print a positive version?
Even if it is a negative version, it costs a lot of money to print a Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Not to mention, you have to print it with both pictures and text."

Li Er spoke.
After all, Yunhao was still young.
Think about it as soon as it comes up, printing a book is such a big thing.
That would cost Lao Bi’s manpower, material and financial resources, and Yunhao talked about it for more than three months.
We just talked about Zhuge Kongming's verbal battle with the Confucian scholars.
It is said that we can talk about it for another year.
If you want to print such a book, I'm afraid you have to empty the treasury of the Sui Dynasty.
Yunhao slapped his forehead.
There was no computer typesetting in these days, not even copperplate printing.
All books are engraved using intaglio and yang inscriptions.
A skilled craftsman can only engrave one plate in a day.
If he really wanted to engrave all the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Yun Hao might have to borrow another five hundred years from heaven.
"After all this, I don't know how you got into money at such a young age and thought of such a way to make money.
Haha."
Li Er laughed immediately when he saw Yunhao scratching his head and ears.
This kid is as shrewd as a hozen, and there are very few times when he can be defeated.
Li Er and Chai Shao looked at each other.
They both liked seeing Yunhao deflated.
They didn't care if they laughed.
Changsun Wuji, who had a messy face, looked like a yaksha when he smiled.
Yunhao kicked Changsun Wuji in disgust.
This guy seemed to be infected by Hou Junji.
He didn't get angry even after being kicked by Yun Hao.
He watched with concentration as Yun Hao danced around like a monkey.
"What do you mean, the so-called difficulty lies in engraving?"
Yunhao asked seriously, looking at the three people who were laughing so hard that they were about to convulse.
"Yes, it's all about engraving.
If you want to make money, don't do anything wrong.
It's better to compile the following book obediently and make us happy."
Chai Shao stopped laughing and said to Yun Hao.
"If you can solve the problem of typesetting, won't there be no problem in printing books?"
Yunhao looked at the three guys and asked.
The publishing industry in this era is almost zero.
Thinking that he would become the originator of the world's publishing industry, Yunhao felt excited just thinking about it.
I am determined to be number one in the world.
"Cough, cough, cough."
Li Er laughed so hard just now, but now he stopped too quickly and was obviously choking.
He coughed and his face turned red.
"You said you could solve the engraving problem."
Chai Shao stopped laughing and looked at Yun Hao.
I have seen Yunhao look so serious before, as long as he gets serious.
So far, there is nothing he can't solve.
"Yeah" Yunhao nodded.
He walked to the desk and stretched out his hand to Li Eryi.
"What are you doing?"

Li Er asked in confusion.
"Second Master will give Yun Hao his private seal, and also Chai Daguan's."
These days, handwritten documents must be signed and stamped, so people with status cannot poke around with their fingers.
Personal seals are mostly carried with you.
If you need to sign or stamp, you can show off your valuable seal in a very cool way.
Dip the ink pad onto the paper and cover it, with a face full of arrogance and pride.
Li Er and Chai Shao handed their private seals to Yun Hao in confusion, and Yun Hao tied Chai Shao's and Li Er's private seals together with a small rope.
Dip the ink pad on the paper and cover it twice.
He looked up at Li Er and Chai Shao who were confused, and then covered them twice more.
Naturally, Tian Khan and General Zhenguo were not fools, when Yun Hao hit the third blow.
Chai Shao's eyes suddenly lit up, and Li Er next to him moved faster.
He pulled Yun Hao over and carefully studied Yun Hao's head.
I have a strong urge to split it "How does this kid's head grow?
It's such a simple thing.
No one has thought of it for hundreds of years, and everyone is just making stupid mistakes."
Li Er's eyes are not X-ray machines, so naturally he can't figure out the reason.
Come.
"There are only a few Chinese characters in total, excluding rare characters.
In fact, there are even fewer commonly used characters.
Just use wood to carve character templates of the same size.
There is no problem in printing any book.
Moreover, these character molds can be reused.
If maintained properly, typefaces made of hardwood can be used for ten to eight years without any problems.
"Movable type printing uses clay molds, but Yun Hao thinks that the clay molds need to be fired after they are made.
It is far inferior to directly carving movable wood type.
Anyway, the craftsman has it ready.
As long as the characters of Wanba are carved, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms should be printed.
"It can be done."
Compared with engraving blocks one by one, making thousands of wooden movable types is not a big problem.
As long as we recruit enough craftsmen, it can be completed in a month or two.
With the current financial resources of the Li family and the Yun family, there is absolutely no problem at all.
Yunhao smiled mischievously, as if he could see mountains of copper coins in front of his eyes.
Books have always been monopolized by aristocratic families.
The reason is that books are expensive.
Especially during the Wuhu Rebellion, some precious engravings were destroyed and abandoned.
Many books have become solitary copies, let alone ordinary people, even the children of aristocratic families rarely see them.
A lot of knowledge has since disappeared in the long river of history.
For example, Hua Tuo’s prescription for Ma Fei Powder.
The inheritance of human civilization is very important in accumulation.
Many things have been studied based on previous experience.
Books, as the inheritance of knowledge and civilization, must not be so expensive.
Yunhao feels that he has made great contributions to human development, but unfortunately there seems to be no Nobel Prize in these years.
Just do what they say, Li Er and Chai Shao find someone to carve wood movable type.
Yunhao told the story at home.
Then Zhang Miaoke recorded it and compiled it into a volume.

In fact, Yunhao should be the one to do this job.
Unfortunately, Yunhao's two strokes of handwriting are really not flattering.
Li Er's review after reading it once was, "Snow Mud Hongzhao" I don’t know how many years Zhang Miaoke worked on calligraphy, and his handwriting is beautiful and dignified.
The rare thing is that the sizes are still the same.
It took Yunhao a long time to resist the urge to frame them and hang them on the wall.
If such wallpaper is used, Zhang Miaoke, who has a sore wrist, will risk his life with Yun Hao.
In just one month, the wooden movable type was carved.
There is a whole room, and I don’t know how it was done.
Yunhao picked up a dozen pieces of wooden movable type and stacked them into a pile, hardly noticing any errors.
Yunhao has a new understanding of the craftsmanship spirit of the ancients.
At Yunhao's insistence, Li Er increased wages for the craftsmen.
The head craftsman held the silver coins in his hands and burst into tears.
He bowed to Yun Hao and said that as long as the Yun family was in charge, he wouldn't care whether he was in trouble or not.
As a carving craftsman, the salary is actually not bad.
Although he can't keep up with the nobles, he is still better than ordinary people after receiving wages.
The reason why I am so grateful to Yunhao is because Yunhao respects their work.
Many times, what craftsmen need is not money, but respect for their craftsmanship.
After the movable type was finished, the head engraver personally built a frame.
The wooden type is placed inside and then clamped.
Apply ink on it and press lightly on the paper.
Everyone's heads poked over, their eyes widening.
After the wooden movable type left the paper, Yunhao jumped up and became With wooden movable type, work will naturally be much faster.
Someone is responsible for typesetting, and someone is responsible for ink.
Someone is responsible for proofreading and someone is responsible for binding.
The assembly line operation method of later generations was invented by Yunhao, which greatly improved production efficiency.
The workers work in three shifts, with no one taking a break.
In less than three days, the first volume of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms was printed.
Of course, this first volume only talks about the battle between the three heroes of Hulao Pass and Lu Bu.
Yunhao looked at the book with the scent of ink and felt a little regretful.
It still didn't feel like a little book.
I really miss that little book of years filled with pictures and texts, which carried the happy childhood of a generation.
As soon as a thousand copies of Romance of the Three Kingdoms were put on the market, they were snapped up by guys who were quick to hear the news.
What is this, this is a book.
It's only sold for ten guan, so it's a free gift.
Although I don’t know the magic stuff written in it, I just want to send it to a wealthy family elsewhere.
Doubling it is still not a problem.
Some guys waited in front of Yun's bookstore the night before in order to grab two books.
Of course, the next morning they got their wish and bought the two books they had limited.
The Yun family is very particular about doing business, and they have to queue up to buy things.
The first come, first served basis is clearly marked, if anyone jumps in line.
There will be a big man in black clothes coming over and asking, "Brother, why are you feeling uncomfortable?"
If some tough guy stares back, those big guys will immediately ask: "What are you looking at?"
"What are you looking at?"
In order to achieve maximum dissemination, Yunhao stipulated that each person could only buy two copies.
This resulted in people queuing up in front of the bookstore every night holding quilts.

When there is demand, there will naturally be a market.
Hiring queue guys came into being.
As long as you help queue up to buy books, you can get a benefit of 500 yuan.
For a time, queues became common in Jinyang City.
People have seized on this opportunity to get rich and become the first to get rich.
"Brother Hao, we made ten thousand coins in three days."
Hou Junji's eyes were red with excitement, and he danced while looking at the mountains of copper coins.
From a distance, it looks like Zhong Kui catching ghosts, but from a close look, it looks like a Yellow Turban uprising.
"This is just the beginning.
Books are the inheritance of knowledge.
They have been controlled by aristocratic families for many years, and now they are open to the public.
The thirst for knowledge will make people buy books regardless of the cost.
But this will not last long, after all, literacy is literate these days.
There are too few people."
Yunhao sighed.
Ten percent of people in this era are semi-literate, and the remaining eighty-nine percent are completely illiterate.
With fewer literate people, the demand for books was not that high.
Once the excitement is over, sales will gradually decline.
However, Yunhao is not worried about Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
The first volume was sold in just three days.
Orders for the second volume flew to the Yun family store like snow flakes, and the guys who urged the update were very arrogant.
As soon as the second volume is released, money will not be an issue, whether it is real gold or silver, as long as there is a price.
Unknowingly, Yunhao's Romance of the Three Kingdoms has quietly left Jinyang.
Businessmen who trafficked books came into being, and they sped up at a speed of eight hundred miles.
The Romance of the Three Kingdoms was sent to Luoyang, the eastern capital, and the city of Chang'an.
Because the aristocratic families there are most concentrated.
In other words, there is the most market there.
"It's all nonsense."
A middle-aged man slammed the Romance of the Three Kingdoms to the ground, and he couldn't understand his hatred after thinking about it.
A big foot stepped on it hard
