encyclopedia.
Gu Changyang looked at the book printed with ink, then opened the pages and saw various outlines on the table of contents. First of all, the first page was for history, which contained historical overview, historical figures, brief biographies, representative works, etc. Then there are birds and animals, insects, fish, plants, astronomy, geography, arithmetic, Yi studies, engineering, etc., including almost everything in the world except for cultivation.
In terms of history, it can detail the contents of county annals. In terms of geography, it also includes many maps. In terms of mathematics, it has a summary of various current calculations. In terms of birds, animals, insects, and fish, it also has the distribution of various places.
One by one, Gu Changyang understood something. After reading some things, Gu Changyang felt that he had gained a lot.
"Opening a printing shop allowed Chen Yue to know so many things in the world."
Gu Changyang flipped through the contents of the book and felt that the editor was very knowledgeable and had extraordinary insights into many things.
"This book can be a teacher."
This was Gu Changyang's emotion after reading the book.
Sun Zhonghui was also flipping through the encyclopedia. He felt that the writing and ink in the book were precise and he could always describe the situation directly and clearly. Each of these entries was almost everything since written records began to be recorded in the Second Dynasty.
"Everything in the world is in books."
Sun will eventually comment on this encyclopedia.
Song Weiguang flipped through the encyclopedia and looked at the all-inclusive content. With his knowledge reserve, he felt an eye-opener when reading the encyclopedia. drunk.
"All the rivers return to the sea, and they all become one treasure."
After writing this, Song Weiguang felt that his thoughts were still unfinished. He picked up the pen and started to write about Chen Yue's coming here to send the book for him to taste, as well as his personal insights after reading the contents of the book, etc. He felt that Chen Yue's encyclopedia was systematic. It contains all the knowledge spread in the world, and it cannot be praised too highly.
Tianjing City.
Gao Huaizhang was holding the "Encyclopedia" sent by Song Weiguang in his hand. He was a near-sage. He flipped through the fifteen volumes of the encyclopedia in a blink of an eye. After reading all the contents in the book, Gao Huaizhang couldn't help but sigh: Chen Bo! Chen Bo......
Chen Yue is Chen Bo's son. This is almost known to all the major forces.
Chen Bo's human skin was taken to Zhengyang Mansion by Ma Ju. Then Ma Ju disappeared mysteriously, and Chen Bo's human skin was missing.
This was originally an unsolved case, but after Gao Huaizhang saw the encyclopedia, he pieced together a lot of things on his own, because he could tell that the person behind this set of encyclopedias should be Chen Bo.
"A person close to a saint really shouldn't die so easily."
Gao Huaizhang looked in the direction of the palace, thought for a moment, and wrote two letters.
"In the autumn of the Yi Mao year, I watched the ink printing and went to Zhengyang to discuss the Nine Confucian Classics... Seeing that Chen Yue was eager to learn but not rich, he was quite popular... "Guan Ju" has an ancient style... As friends, we exchanged letters... I felt that I was eager to learn, so I sent many miscellaneous books... After reading, I gathered all the corresponding contents into one group. Although most of them belong to miscellaneous books, the compilation and classification of the outline are also the ingenuity of this book... It can be a [treasure house of knowledge and a good teacher to resolve doubts].”
Gao Huaizhang wrote thousands of words eloquently, the main content of which was to cover up the incident of Chen Bo.
The construction of this set of encyclopedias is attributed to Chen Yue, and also to the "miscellaneous books" mailed by Gao Huaizhang to Chen Yue. If these miscellaneous books are to be interpreted by someone who is interested, they are what Chen Bo left behind back then. The notes were mailed by Gao Huaizhang to Chen Yue, who then compiled them into an encyclopedia.
After finishing this letter, Gao Huaizhang started another pen and wrote on the letter paper: "Goodbye and be well."
These two letters followed Song Weiguang's route and soon reached Chen Yue's hands.
When he read the first letter, Chen Yue already knew that the news about Chen Bo could not be hidden from Gao Huaizhang, a near-sage. However, Gao Huaizhang covered it up in the letter and compiled the "Encyclopedia" The creation process can be described as thoughtful.
"You're welcome and safe..."
Chen Bo read the letter behind Gao Huaizhang and knew that the letter was for him, and he immediately felt sick to his stomach.
Chill is a disease.
With Gao Huaizhang's literary quality, he wanted to say hello and had many words to say, but he chose to use the words "Bie Lai Wu Hao", which was obviously a tease to Chen Bo.
Now most of Chen Bo's body parts are scattered everywhere. Currently, he only has a piece of human skin and two hands. He is not fine, he is seriously ill.
"Son, you should cultivate quickly and help me resurrect as soon as possible. I will use the encyclopedia to make up for the foundation as soon as possible, and then I will hit the holy throne!"
Chen Bo was high-spirited and said: "If I can get ahead of Gao Huaizhang and ascend to the holy throne, he will need the next Jiazi year!"
Chen Bo wanted to defeat Gao Huaizhang fiercely and then give Gao Huaizhang a face.
"..."
Chen Yue was too lazy to pay attention to Chen Bo's stimulation. He also compiled the evaluations of various celebrities sent by the officials and arranged Gao Huaizhang's evaluation at the beginning of the book as the preface of the "Encyclopedia", and Chen Yue wrote the publication Explain why you want to publish such an encyclopedia. As a set of tool books, what are the differences between the encyclopedia and the books on the market?
In the preface, Chen Yue attached various comments from Gao Huaizhang, officials, Song Weiguang, Gu Changyang, and Sun Zhonghui. At the end, Chen Yue also added Chen Yue's own name and wrote: "It is beneficial to open the book." 】.
It can be regarded as another way to rank myself with the big guys.
All in all, Chen Yue sorted out all the things to be published in the encyclopedia, and then went to Donglin Printing Factory to typeset them himself. On the other hand, the encyclopedia had already been printed out samples, and the various printing models were naturally Preserved, with Chen Yue's order, this set of "Encyclopedia" began to be published and printed.
The fifteen-volume encyclopedia is still printed with ink and the paper is the best on the market. Chen Yue feels that the price of three hundred taels of silver for this set of books is not excessive.
Most of the literary practitioners are not short of silver, what they are short of is star jade.
As for selling to ordinary people, they have to wait until the market for hardcover editions is saturated. Chen Yue will use relatively inferior paper to print them and sell them to people with less financial resources. From Chen Yue's point of view, the most important thing is to give the books to Sell it, expand the knowledge of the encyclopedia, and make the encyclopedia deeply rooted in people's hearts.
There has been no movement in Donglin Academy since the end of the year. People here in Zhengyang were feeling bored, and then the news about the "Encyclopedia" spread.
"What kind of storybook is an encyclopedia?"
"The "Encyclopedia" compiled by Chen Yue himself?"
"Is this a book like Huidian?"
"This is the job of the Hanlin Academy."
"Why did Chen Yue compile this kind of thing?"
The work of repairing books has always been the work of the royal family. The royal family will allocate a group of people and spend more than ten years to compile a complete set of books. The emperor will then reward them and seal them in the royal library. Ordinary people are Those who have no chance to see the contents of the books, only the people in the Hanlin Academy can read the books inside.
And Chen Yue created an encyclopedia, which was obviously for commercial use.
Ordinary people are interested after hearing that this book mainly talks about academic and historical matters, but not much. What they pay attention to is the storybook, while those practitioners in the literary world, after hearing the encyclopedia After reading the contents and seeing the remarks of the great scholars in the propaganda, I came to Donglin Academy with great interest and bought a set of such books.
After opening it, I feel that the content here is all-encompassing. Many of the information that I originally wanted to consult can be accurately found through this encyclopedia. Things that I didn’t understand before can also be found after reading the encyclopedia. suddenly see the light.
"It is beneficial to open the book. This kind of book is indeed beneficial to open the book."
"It is indeed a book that Confucian leaders can write evaluations of."
"With a book like this, I feel more confident about the imperial examination."
"With such a clear encyclopedia, even if I don't go to school, I can still study by myself at home."
In the school here in Zhengyang, after the encyclopedia was published, under the influence of the great Confucian scholars and the supervision of the teachers, the students each bought the encyclopedia. After seeing the contents in the book, many students felt that their money was not wasted.
This set of encyclopedias lists almost all kinds of knowledge in the world in front of them, making these students feel eye-opening after reading it.
"No wonder Chen Yue's books include astronomical and geographical knowledge at his fingertips. It turns out that he has reserves in this area."
"What are the miscellaneous books that the great scholar gave Chen Yue? How can Chen Yue compile such a set of books?"
The students couldn't help but discuss this while reading.
They lamented that Chen Yue was able to create a book like the "Encyclopedia" and were amazed by the various contents copied in the miscellaneous books.
Luofu also has an encyclopedia in front of him.
This was a gift given to Luofu by someone in Fengya Society. After Luofu opened the book, he saw the comments written by Gao Huaizhang on it, as well as the beginning and end of the compilation of this encyclopedia, etc.
"Gao Huaizhang is really troubled."
Luofu saw that the content inside was very similar to Chen Bo's style, and with the size of the encyclopedia, only Chen Bo had the energy to compile it. Luofu read the full text and guessed that this was the book that Chen Bo wanted to compile. Under the guidance of Gao Huaizhang, Chen Yuezi inherited his father's legacy and created the encyclopedia.
"It seems that Chen Yue was really in retreat some time ago."
Only after Luofu saw the "Encyclopedia" did he believe the news sent back by Huang Tianshun.
Chen Yue should not have the energy to compete with Fengya Society for the update of Water Margin and the compilation of the encyclopedia.
So the source of this mysterious power...
Luofu knocked on the table, slowly calculating, summing up all the recent events, and guessed where Fengya Society had provoked a mysterious figure and was being hunted like this.
Could it be...
Luofu had a surprising idea in his mind.
Chen Yue obtained the accurate sales situation of the "Encyclopedia" from Donglin Academy. Since the advent of this set of books, 1,500 sets have been sold in this short period of time, leaving aside some book collecting families who purchased these. To furnish the study room, most of the people who come here to buy encyclopedias are students. Students are hungry for all kinds of knowledge. This set of encyclopedias fully meets their needs.
"For the rest, let the encyclopedia slowly ferment."
Chen Yue is currently only selling it for Zhengyang Mansion. Chen Yue also believes that the reputation of this set of books will rapidly expand and become a reference book on the desks of literati.
And with this set of books like the encyclopedia, Chen Yue's guys can really have enough food and clothing for a lifetime.
Leaving the encyclopedia matter to the guys, Chen Yue walked towards the long street and continued to practice observation to increase his ability to control details.
"Go!"
A chopstick was thrown at Chen Yue.
The chopsticks were already known to Chen Yue in mid-air. Chen Yue paused and watched the chopsticks fall in front of him. He looked up and saw Liang Ningyan standing pretty in front of the window, the two of them looking at each other.
"Huh……"
Chen Yue had a sense of déjà vu, and then thought of Pan Jinlian smashing Ximen Qing's world-famous painting in Lian Er Chun.
Liang Ningyan, who was in front of the window, seemed to have thought of this. Her face turned slightly red and she shrank back into the window sill.
Chen Yue took a step forward and walked into the restaurant. He made a special trip to the box where Liang Ningyan was. After knocking on the door, Liang Ningyan opened it for Chen Yue. Chen Yue naturally looked around and saw that the house was cleanly decorated and there was no food. There was a cup of tea, and Liang Ningyan was quietly at the window, obviously observing the people outside through the window.
"I heard Luoluo say that you are a very hard-working and focused person, and it's true at all."
Liang Ningyan's voice was a little soft, and she said: "The Water Margin and the encyclopedia were written together, and the cultivation level has not fallen behind. I'm really curious about your schedule for the day."
Chen Yue smiled slightly and stood side by side with Liang Ningyan, looking at the scenery outside and the hurried passers-by, and curiously asked: "Is your observation a personal talent, or is it the result of your martial arts?"
"...all of them."
Liang Ningyan's two gentle words cleared up some of Chen Yue's doubts.
Chen Yue nodded, knowing that this involved sect secrets, so he didn't ask any more questions, but said: "The characters in my works are good at solving crimes, and I feel that your observation is that the people in Taiyuan are really good at solving crimes. "
Being able to see the details is the difference between an ordinary person and a detective.
"I haven't tried these."
Liang Ningyan said softly: "I'm not interested in solving the case either."
Chen Yue nodded and was about to speak when he saw Xiao Tan among the people below. He was walking towards here in a hurry.
After Liang Ningyan saw Xiao Tan, she judged and said, "He is probably looking for you."
Hearing this, Chen Yue released some energy towards Xiao Tan, making Xiao Tan pay attention to this side, and Xiao Tan jumped over and reached the window sill.
"Chen Yue, let's dig Liu Qing's grave together!"
Xiao Tan's sudden suggestion made Chen Yue a little nervous.
