"Hey, I'm asking you, what are you doing here if you don't sleep so early in the morning?"
Sun Simiao saw Xiao Han's stupid look, and the fire in his heart rose!
I wish I could take the water ladle at hand and pour it on his head to wake him up. By the way, it’s also good to remember how rude it is to be distracted while talking to others.
I don’t know why, Lao Sun usually looks like a kind and wise man, and is a kind elder to everyone he meets, but when he looks at Xiao Han, he becomes inexplicably angry!
However, even though I was angry when I saw him, I still felt a little worried if I really hadn’t seen him for many days.
It's really love and hate, extremely complicated... (Ahem, don't even think about it, this is the kind of emotion between pure friends!!!)
"Ah...oh!"
Here, Xiao Han suddenly came to his senses after being scolded by Sun Simiao. He quickly shook his head to get rid of the monkey brain matter, and then said: "I came to see you for something!"
"Nonsense! If nothing happens, even if the sun comes out from the west, you can't come to my place so early! Tell me, what's the matter?" Sun Simiao snorted with lingering anger.
"Bah! Am I so lazy?" When Xiao Han heard this, he rolled his eyes first and muttered disdainfully in his heart, and then smiled and even said flatteringly: "I read yesterday's Baopuzi For most of the night, I felt really inspired! Many of the wonderful quotes are wise sayings, and some of the prescriptions are rare and unique..."
Xiao Han boasted a lot, but he didn't notice that Sun Simiao's face was getting darker and darker!
Um! I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen such shameless people!
Yesterday he stole his own book, and today he went to the owner and made nonsense of it? Sun Simiao was very surprised, how could such a person survive until now without being beaten to death?
"so……"
Xiao Han finally finished blowing, wiped the foam from the corner of his mouth, and smiled evilly.
Sun Simiao came to his senses and instinctively felt something was wrong. He glared at him and said, "So, what are you going to do?"
"This, hehe, haha..." Xiao Han rubbed his hands and hesitated, as if he was embarrassed.
When Sun Simiao saw this, his heart immediately shivered and he said directly: "Daniu, see the guest off!"
"Ah?" Xiao Han was dumbfounded and quickly waved his hands: "No! No! I just want to discuss with you whether we can print some of this book! You see, this book is the hard work of Taoist Ge Hong. You don’t want to accidentally lose it in the future, right? I’ll print some more and distribute them everywhere. If this one is lost, there will still be that one, right?”
"You mean, you want to print a book?"
When Sun Simiao heard this, he finally stopped chasing people away, but his brows were almost twisted into the Chinese character "Sichuan", and his eyes looked Xiao Han up and down again, just like when he saw this person for the first time!
Xiao Han felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by Lao Sun. He thought that Guang Yin Bao Puzi had made the old Taoist unhappy, so he hurriedly said: "Yes! Seal the book! Not only Yin Bao Puzi, but also your thousand gold prescription, and the people in the academy We printed the student’s book together, do you like it?”
"I printed it together, do you still think it's okay for me?"
Sun Simiao finally came to his senses, and then looked at Xiao Han as if he were a fool, and asked: "Do you want to print so many books? How many engraving masters did you find?"
"Engraving master? What is that?"
When Xiao Han heard this, he looked at Lao Sun in confusion. This sounded similar to Diao brand laundry detergent. He hadn't looked for it at all?
"Snapped……"
There was a crisp sound, but it was Sun Simiao who slapped himself on the forehead, but to be honest, he probably wanted to slap Xiao Han with this slap!
"You don't even have an engraving master, how can you print books? Do you blow with your mouth?" Lao Sun said with an angry smile.
"You want that thing when printing a book?" Xiao Han scratched his head and asked in surprise. He really didn't expect this.
When Sun Simiao heard this, he was completely speechless. He didn't want to be angry with Xiao Han anymore. He shook his sleeves and followed his words: "Don't you want that thing when printing books?"
"But……"
Xiao Han opened his mouth and wanted to ask again.
Behind him, Daniel pulled the corner of his clothes with some embarrassment and said to him in a low voice: "Xiao Hou, you haven't been to the book printing workshop, have you?"
"No, why, can't it?" Looking back at Daniel, Xiao Han replied matter-of-factly.
He is so busy all day long, why would he go there if he has nothing to do?
When Daniel saw that Xiao Han had never been there, he smiled honestly and said, "Okay! But it's no wonder you don't know about the engraving master."
"Is this engraving master so important?" Xiao Han frowned, and then asked: "Is he that rigid person?"
"Yes!" Seeing that Xiao Han finally understood, Daniel grinned and nodded: "This engraving master is the treasure of every book printing workshop. Without them, you would have no printing plate. Without the printing plate, how can you print? Book?"
"Without them, we can't print books?" Xiao Han scratched his head in confusion and said, "Can't I just find a few people who can engrave seals? I've seen a lot of people doing this on the streets of Yangzhou in the past two days."
"What? You printed the book, but you went to the seal engraver? Why didn't you go to the woodcutter to chop wood?"
When Sun Simiao heard this, he almost lost his temper on the spot. He hurriedly recited a few heart-clearing mantras silently before giving up the idea of pulling Xiao Han's leg and throwing him out.
However, Xiao Han didn't know whether he didn't hear the sarcasm in Sun Simiao's words, or he deliberately pretended to be confused and said: "Lumbercutter? That may be necessary. It is necessary to get some good wood."
"You!!!" Sun Simiao felt that his heart-clearing spell was somewhat ineffective.
When Daniel saw this, he also had a wry smile on his face. He shook his head and explained to Xiao Han: "Xiao Hou, you don't know something. When my master and I were in Chang'an, we once went to treat the owner of a book printing workshop. There were many people there. Learned something about printing books.
This printed book is divided into Yin version and Yang version!
In the negative version, words are written on a wooden board, and then the words are cut out according to the mark. In this way, when printing with ink, the paper will be black and the words will be white. Although it does not look good, it is faster and less likely to make mistakes.
As for the positive version, it is to cut out everything except the words on a board, leaving only the words. The words printed in this way are black and the paper is white, which is beautiful, but it is a waste of effort! And if you are not careful, if you engrave a wrong word, the entire board will be useless!
We heard from the owner of the printing shop that their printing shop is considered to be the best in Chang'an, but even so, it would take three to five days for their most skilled master to carve a single page of characters alone. It took seven or eight months for this book to come out, but it couldn’t come out at all!
You just said that you would engrave Baopuzi and my master's thousand-gold prescription, as well as those teaching materials. I don’t know how many pages there are in the textbook, but just the first two books, there are hundreds of pages at least, right? How much time will it take? How much money? "
