On the third day after Li Qianyou and Du Shaoqing finalized the direct transaction of books between the two sides, news came from the palace that the movable type printing was missing.It was the dead man surnamed Qiwang who secretly mixed into the guards, and after peeking on the secret, he brought the news over, and found out afterwards that it was too late, and the secret pile committed suicide by taking poison, but the secret could not be kept.When Du Shaoqing heard the news, he almost couldn't cry or laugh, his first reaction was not surprise, but when he thought of Li Qianyou of the Li family in Longxi, what would he think?
Because just the day before, Li Qianyou had already sent a deposit of 5,000 teaching books ordered, and the news quickly spread in Chang'an, Du Shaoqing sold teaching books to the Li family in Longxi at a cheap price to fund his running of schools and educating people.As soon as the news came out, the whole city was in an uproar, and the people praised Longxi Li's school as a good thing, but those who were a little knowledgeable were surprised, speculating whether Longxi Li's relationship with Du Shaoqing was ambiguous?
Could it be that the situation has changed?
The five surnames and seven wang other families are dissatisfied, what does the Li family in Longxi mean?
Hide from everyone and contact Du Shaoqing in private?
And got such a big benefit?
Bought in?
So when they got the movable type printing technology the next day, it was interesting to get together again, and someone looked at Li Qianyou and sneered: "Now that the new printing technology is in hand, does the Li family in Longxi still need it?"
Don't you already have access to the finished booklet?
”Li Qianyou's old face turned red, and then he argued strongly: "Hey, I also wanted to meet Du Shaoqing at that time, after all, it is good to know yourself and your opponent."
I didn't expect this person to be eclectic, and he promised to give the book, and it was difficult to ride a tiger between words, and it became such a business, which was really a misunderstanding. ”Wang Si waved his hand and said: "Okay, what Brother Li said is not unreasonable, don't worry about some small things, don't mess with yourself." ”Cui Junsu looked at the movable type printing and exclaimed, "Movable type printing?
The cycle goes on and on, eliminating the labor and difficulty of the engraving, if you don't see it with your own eyes, it really makes people guess it, this Du Shaoqing is really a genius, admire. ”Several of them were nodding, apparently seeing what magic was."
Hey, it's a pity that there is only printing now, and the papermaking technology can't be used, and the price of paper can't be reduced, I'm afraid that a book is still expensive."
Someone complained.Seeing that the popularity of the people was still not high, Wang Si glanced at Li Qianyou of the Li clan in Longxi, and then smiled mysteriously at everyone: "Everyone, my Taiyuan Wang clan has spent a lot of money to study a new papermaking technique similar to Du Shaoqing, so it is possible that this problem has been solved by us." ”Well?
Seriously?
Everyone is moved, how can it be so coincidental?
Only a few smart people can see it, where is similar to papermaking, it is clearly Taiyuan Wang's, I don't know what means to steal the secret of papermaking, and now lie that it is my own, want to take advantage of the opportunity to make profits, and do not want to share."
Really?
Brother Wang said quickly, how did he Du Shaoqing make paper?
How much does it cost?
”One urged.Wang Si smiled but didn't answer, looked at Li Qianyou, the two glanced at each other, although there was no movement in their eyes, but the meaning is self-evident, that is, I helped you just now, and now it's your turn.Li Qianyou said with a smile: "Du Shaoqing sold me a batch of books at the price of 10% of the books on the market, according to my opinion, his cost is not even 10% of the price of today's paper, Taiyuan Wang has also improved the papermaking technology, it seems that I want to congratulate Brother Wang, great achievement!"
”Everyone present couldn't help but be a little envious of Li Qianyou, the price of one percent was really cheap.Wang Si continued with satisfaction: "Brother Li is polite, there are still flaws in our papermaking technology after improvement, not as cheap as Du Shaoqing, but it is also similar."
In this way, the five surnames and seven hopes have always been single-minded, in order to show the sincerity of the Wang family, they will be priced at 10% of the paper price on the market, and everyone can find us if they need paper to print books.Even if we post the labor cost backwards, we have to fight with Du Shaoqing to the end. ”Good guy, this guy is really greedy!
Everyone secretly scolded the old fox in their hearts, and a fool would believe that you can reverse the cost?
I'm afraid the truth is that you don't make a good mouth.However, although this group of people has their own ghosts, they have the same goal after all, and they praise Wang's righteousness with a smile on their faces.After this gathering, although these people got what they wanted, books were no longer a problem, but because of this, more weaknesses were exposed, and the disunity of the people was the first thing, and the second was that the Li family in Longxi was already suspected of breaking the contract.There is also the fact that the Taiyuan Wang family took the opportunity to make a fortune, which is also dissatisfied, so the situation is not as beautiful as imagined.After the secret was leaked, Du Shaoqing was summoned into the palace, Li Er's face was not very good, and it was obvious that he had lost face.At the beginning, he swore to Du Shaoqing that he would keep the secret for at least a year, but he didn't expect that it would be stolen successfully in just over a month, it seems that the foundation of Datang is too shallow.When he came to the council hall, Du Shaoqing didn't expect his daughter Xiao Xuanxuan to be here, and he took the initiative to greet him."
Daddy, you're here, grandpa is angry, you don't know, and told me, your dad is a stinky boy again, see if I don't teach him, don't take Lao Tzu in his eyes at all" Du Shaoqing's feet slipped, and hurriedly covered his daughter's mouth, and said in his heart, baby daughter, what are you acting like this?
Is it good for girls to say Lao Tzu Lao Tzu?"
Isn't Daddy here, your grandfather is so kind, when has he ever trained someone?
You say, don't you?
He's just angry and talking. ”Xiao Xuanxuan squinted her eyes and nodded repeatedly, "Well, grandpa is the best, better than grandma, grandma is sometimes super fierce." ”"Ahem, okay, okay, I haven't seen you for a few days, tell my dad about it, how are you doing in the academy?
Did you study hard and make Mr. angry?
”Du Shaoqing hurriedly changed the topic, this kid doesn't shy away from talking, and offends people when he talks about it.However, the emperor Li Er on the dragon chair heard his granddaughter say that he liked himself more than his grandmother, and he felt a lot better, it seems that he is still talented in pleasing children, and I remember that my son also said so.If Du Shaoqing hears Li Er's monologue boasting, I'm afraid he will scoff at it, why don't you ask those children who have grown up?
I'm afraid they're all complaining about you behind your back, I heard that when Lizhi first came back, she pointed her nose and scolded you for being unconscious.Xuanxuan replied cutely: "No, Xuanxuan is super well-behaved, Mr. likes me very much, every time he lectures I will memorize in advance, he praises me every time."
That is, it is easy to get sleepy when listening to his lectures, and people are always asleep, so it is better to be comfortable with the Taoist grandfather. ”Du Shaoqing: When the emperor Li Er next to him heard this, he finally forgot about the unhappiness of the government for the time being, and said with a wry smile: "This kid doesn't know why, he likes to doze off in class, for this reason Yan Shigu has been here many times, the child is too young to fight, so this Confucian is helpless." ”Du Shaoqing pulled his daughter and asked curiously: "Why do you sleep when you go to school here, but don't sleep when you go to school in the hospital?"
”"Because there was delicious food when I was studying with Grandpa Dao in the medical hall, Grandpa Dao taught us to read and write, and at the same time let me and Xue Dingshan have snacks, hehe, it's good for us.But the old gentleman here didn't let him eat in class, and once Cheng Ruyu secretly ate the roast mutton brought to Xiao Meow, and was slapped by the old gentleman. ”Xiao Xuanxuan explained.Well, it seems that Lao Xie still has a set of teaching, dealing with children, it seems that it is not very effective to follow the rules seriously, Li Er next to him thought, can you tell Yan Shigu a little bit about it, let him learn from it?"
By the way, Dad, you seem to have lied to me, you said that Cheng Ruyu is very good at studying here, but no one has ever been here at all, and he and I are all enrolled on the first day.And she learned to write too slowly, and now she can only write two words for several days, and every time I sleep next to me, she will get the ink to practice calligraphy, and then my husband asked her to change to writing on the sand table. ”Hearing that he had been exposed, Du Shaoqing's old face turned red, "Ahem, maybe my father remembered it wrong, it's another child, listening to you say this, it has become a habit for you to sleep in class?"
Didn't the old gentleman care about you?
”Xiao Xuanxuan said a little embarrassed: "He, he asked me to stand and listen to the class." ”"Huh?
Standing up to a lecture?
God, you're only so old, and a class lasts more than half an hour, how can you stand and listen to the class?
I'll go find the old man Yan," Du Shaoqing was so angry that he was about to find someone.Xiao Xuanxuan hurriedly grabbed her father, and Du Shaoqing was very puzzled.But the little girl blushed and said weakly, "Once I fell asleep standing up, and almost fell to the ground, and then, and then the old gentleman allowed me to lie down on the table and sleep." ”Poof, Li Er is already laughing, this granddaughter, I'm afraid I have to make Master Yan angry, can she fall asleep while standing?"
Boy, I can understand now why you can fail the exam three times, look at Xiao Xuanxuan's appearance, the designation is passed down with you."
Du Shaoqing hugged his daughter awkwardly and comforted her, and then let her go out to play, the child is only five years old, how can there be any study pressure, she is happy, let's do this for the time being.He didn't know that the child was happy, but Yan Shigu, the old master of Hongguan, was almost unable to bear it.In the council hall, Li Er said with emotion: "Originally, I was angry, but with this clever and lovely granddaughter by my side, I can be amused by this child if I am angry."
Don't look at this kid is only five years old, when you didn't come, this kid knew that I was angry, and told me a lot of jokes, this filial piety is much stronger than your kid. ”Du Shaoqing shook his head with a wry smile, found a seat on the side, and persuaded: "Father-in-law is angry because of the leakage of papermaking and printing, in fact, there is no need, these two things will be passed on sooner or later." ”Li Er snorted coldly: "You kid has a big heart, with these two sharp weapons, the five surnames and seven are like tigers, and they were originally just scholars in the world with their names."
Now, let their schools open all over Datang, and in the future, after everyone in the world is literate, everyone will be on their side. ”Seeing the other party complaining so much, Du Shaoqing laughed instead."

My father-in-law is afraid that he has a preconceived idea and falls into the darkness under the lamp.""
How?""
If everyone in the world has books to read and everyone can read, then the five surnames and seven hopes will collapse without a fight.For example, His Majesty has a pearl in his hand that is rare and precious, and others envy him, but if everyone in the world has one in his hand, will this pearl still be precious?
I'm afraid everyone is dismissive.The reason why the five surnames and seven wangs are highly respected and looked up to is not because of how strong they are and how large the population is, but because they are all literate, and even those born here can read and write, and they can be officials and officials in the future, which is enviable.Why?
Because others are illiterate, or even want to be literate, they can't get it.And reading and literacy is like that pearl, if everyone has it, will the five surnames and seven hopes still be treated differently?
So my father-in-law is afraid that he is too worried. ”After listening to Du Shaoqing's theory, Li Er's mouth opened and closed a few times, and he didn't know what to say.After a long time, he asked with a little surprise: "So, the five surnames and Qiwang follow the trend to open the school, it seems that they are digging their own graves, right?"
They can't be so stupid. ”Du Shaoqing spread his hands and said helplessly: "At first, maybe they had the same idea as you, that is, to seize the opportunity to recruit talents, but the slogan was too loud, and there was no class."
There is a way where interests and crises coexist, they didn't see the crisis that came together, and now it's not clear whether anyone sees it, but even if someone understands it, I'm afraid it's hard to ride a tiger.Don't forget, there is still our school approaching step by step, even if they don't open a school for themselves, our school will sooner or later achieve the goal of everyone having a book to read. ”Li Er happily patted the table and smiled: "Yes, that's right, that's right, cut off their sense of superiority from the root, and the poetry and books are heirlooms?"
Ten years later, everyone in my Tang Dynasty is literate, and they are all heirlooms of poetry and books, what are the five surnames and seven hopes?
It should be said that from the day you kid improved papermaking and printing, you must have laid a trap for them. ”Du Shaoqing pretended to be surprised, and denied it again and again: "Father-in-law Hugh wants to defile people's innocence, and the son-in-law has never thought of pitting people when he builds a school, purely to educate people for the country." ”"It's called wilting!
The day before yesterday, I heard that you sold a batch of books to the Li family in Longxi at a high price, and I thought that you were cheated by your kid again. ”Li Er scolded with a smile.was relieved by Du Shaoqing, Li Er suddenly felt that the road ahead was transparent, the mountain that had been lying in front of the Li royal family for several generations was moved away so easily, thinking that his father and eldest brother were helpless to bow their heads to each other?
It's a pity to think about it now, in Du Shaoqing's opinion, if the five surnames and seven hopes develop like this, sooner or later there will be a day of failure, and the thousand-year-old family is not reliable."
Fortunately, your kid was born here, if you are a member of a big family, I am afraid it will be a disaster for the court."
Li Er sighed with emotion, and suddenly asked curiously: "If you are an opponent, how to solve this mortal ending?"
”Facing the old father-in-law's flash of inspiration, Du Shaoqing was stunned for a moment, thought for a while and said: "If you want to solve this situation, I'm afraid you have to burn books and ban books, but this is the imperial court promoting education, they want to destroy but don't occupy the righteousness, they can't do this."
The clever approach should be to retire at the right time to protect yourself, at least you can keep your inheritance and wealth, and continue to fight against the imperial court, which is tantamount to looking for death. ”Li Er shook his head and smiled, "How can it be so easy?"
It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.They have been in high positions for a long time, and they are reluctant to be powerful and rich.Since you kid can see through this trap, why not just open up paper and printing from the start?
”"It's not a secret, I really just thought of it, I didn't think so at first.And if we take the initiative to open up, people may still think that we have a conspiracy and take precautions in advance, how can they rush to do things now?
”Weng and his son-in-law glanced at each other and laughed at the same time.Du Shaoqing went back from the palace and told his wife, Princess Changle, about the anecdote of her daughter sleeping in class, and she laughed backwards, but the princess frowned, thinking that she was too indulgent to her daughter, and there was no rule in class.Don't you know that Master Yan of Hongguan is about to be completely collapsed by the two new little girls, who have been teaching and educating people for many years, and have never seen such a difficult child to bring.One is too smart to bring, and the other is too stupid to bring, which is really distressing.Since the first day of class, Xiao Xuanxuan claimed that she could speak Chinese, Yan Shigu was shocked, and ran to congratulate the emperor, but after two days, problems gradually appeared.Just like this morning, Yan Shigu came to the Hongguan to give a lecture as usual."
Today, let's explain the Book of Rites, by the way, Cheng Ruyu, you still have to review the words you taught you to write yesterday, and I will teach you to write another one later.""
Yes old man."
Cheng Ruyu's cute answer came, and then she began to take out things from her schoolbag.But Yan Shigu had just opened the ceremony and recited the first two sentences, when another cute voice appeared, "Old man, didn't you say that today you were going to talk about a book that I hadn't memorized?"
I've already memorized this etiquette. ”Yan Shigu's feet slipped, and he secretly complained, he knew that this girl was indispensable in any class, God, what kind of little monster did Your Majesty send to me The old face was flat, and he coughed lightly, "Don't talk during class, listen attentively." ”Xiao Xuanxuan didn't buy it, and said okay, how can you deceive children?
So she stood up boldly, "Old man, didn't you promise me to talk about a new book?"
How can you deceive people?
”At this time, classmate Xiao Shouye was dissatisfied and said: "Du Xuanxuan, don't make trouble, you can memorize the Analects, Mr. has changed it to talk about Zhou Rites for you, but you also said that you have learned, so you changed it to the Book of Poetry, and you said that you have learned it."
What if you've studied them all?
We haven't finished our studies yet, so you can't be the only one who can influence all of us. ”Yan Shigu sighed and said: "That's it, you all sit down first, it is true that the old man agreed in advance, tomorrow, how about we change it tomorrow, how about we change it tomorrow, today's class has been prepared, Du Xuanxuan, you can listen to it too." ”Oh Xiao Xuanxuan didn't hold on, after sitting down, she lacked interest, and looked at Cheng Ruyu writing, but she fell asleep unconsciously when she looked at it.Yan Shigu was speechless when he looked at this scene, when did his lecture not even have this bit of attraction?
Because of this, the old man decided to prepare well for the next day's lesson, and try to win this eccentric student.In the medical hall, Du Shaoqing came to work with a spring breeze, Xie Laodao looked at it and quipped: "Boy, I've been quite proud of the spring breeze recently, do you want Lao Dao to help you calculate a hexagram and see when to add Ding?"
”Edu Shaoqing's face turned red, this was all seen, it seems that staying with a group of medical masters, the pressure is really quite high, and he can't hide it.But after thinking about it, Du Shaoqing became interested, and leaned closer and whispered: "Oh?
Daoist, do you still know how to divination?
Then I'm sorry for you to help me give a hexagram, Uchiko has been anxious about this inheritance.By the way, why don't you tell the hexagram for Uchiko, so that she can listen to it with peace of mind.Regardless of whether you calculate it accurately or not, you must tell her that you will be happy immediately, so that she will not be disturbed all day long" Du Shaoqing was still talking to himself, and was knocked on the door of his head by Lao Xie with a blow of dust: "You kid, who are you old Taoists?"
Charlatans?
Even if the hexagram is good, the hexagram is like a heavenly determination, how can there be no reason, full of nonsense, begging for a beating!
”In the end, under Du Shaoqing's request, Xie Laodao agreed to help, and found time for the princess to calculate and calm her heart, it was impossible to want the child to be anxious."
Master, there is an aunt outside looking for you, saying that she is giving you good news."
Han Yueming, a disciple of the medical hall, entered the back hall and reported.Lao Xie was surprised: "Heh, boy, is there joy when you talk about it, and someone else comes to report the good news?"
”"Don't be joking, I just checked Xuanxuanniang's pulse before going out, what's the matter" Du Shaoqing explained and walked out, Xie Laodao laughed in the back.Coming to the lobby of the medical hall, Du Shaoqing's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted him, "Shopkeeper Cui, you are here, so you are here, is it Shanggong's mother-in-law?"
”The shopkeeper Cui gave Du Shaoqing a salute with a smile on his face and said: "Congratulations to the master of the horse, my mother-in-law has finally succeeded after many days of hard thinking and research, and I have specially ordered me to ask the horse to go for inspection." ”Du Shaoqing was overjoyed, and immediately ordered someone to invite Wu Zhao to come with him, if this matter is done, then this Cui Shanggong's mother-in-law will immediately agree to hire it.Came to the splendid garment shop, looked at a small wooden machine in front of him, and skillfully peeled out the cotton grains in the hands of Shanggong's mother-in-law, Du Shaoqing's eyes were glazed.This is also amazing, the craftsmen in the palace claim to have more than a year's workload, and in the hands of this old man, it will be taken down in a few days?"
Great, with such a sharp weapon, when he is white and covered all over the Tang Dynasty, Shanggong's mother-in-law should be the first to take the lead."
Du Shaoqing said excitedly.And Wu Zhao, who came with him, looked around at the furnishings in this mother-in-law's house, almost all of them were textile supplies, and there were many finished textile products.When Wu Zhao saw that there was a small white round handkerchief, the whole person was stunned, this, it turned out to be made of white hair?
Hearing that Du Shaoqing wanted to hire herself as the chief weaver, the old woman was unwilling, after all, she was old and could no longer afford to go out to find a job.However, Du Shaoqing and the two were very enthusiastic, and affirmed that they didn't have to be busy with anything else, just go and guide the juniors when they had time, which made the old woman reluctantly agree, and said that it was for the sake of Xiao Xuanxuan, the child.Du Shaoqing and Wu Zhao glanced at each other, and smiled bitterly at the same time, they didn't have a big face for their daughter after making trouble for a long time.On the way back, Wu Zhao had a whim and asked Du Shaoqing: "I saw that the old woman's room actually had a handkerchief woven by her own hair, and her weaving skills were so superb that her hair could weave cloth."
I don't know if the animal's hair is good, if it's a short wool cow hair, it's really powerful, and I must choose a group of elite weaver girls to learn from this mother-in-law. ”"Wait, what did you just say?"
Du Shaoqing's body was shocked, and it seemed that a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind again, but he didn't catch it.
