Tang Sufan pondered for a moment, then said: "As you know, I am too lazy to take on this so-called merit..."
Then Tang Sufan's words made Li Shimin ecstatic.
"Let's do this. During this period, I will hand over these punctuation marks and simplified Chinese characters to Gao Ming and Chongyi bit by bit. If you want to hand it over to the court, Lao Li, just go to these two little guys..."
Several old men looked at each other, especially the eager Wei Zheng, who was a little confused...
this?
What way?
Fang Xuanling couldn't help but ask: "This... Su Fan, you can obviously compile it into a book and let the boss hand it over to the court for your promotion, why not just make it simple?"
"Although you don't care about fame and fortune, why don't you hand it over to me later and let your employer hide your name?"
But Li Shimin's restrained expression flashed and he said nothing.
This boy did a great job~
If this name that stirred up the literary world could be crowned on the prince's head.
In the future, both the prestige established by Gao Ming as the crown prince and the assistance he will receive when Gao Ming ascends the throne will be greatly improved.
A teenage prince caused changes in the world of literature, which greatly increased the prestige of the Li and Tang royal families.
Gao Ming has not yet gone to court to attend. After a while, once Gao Ming goes to court, he will get the support of many civil servants and scholars in the court!
This kid's hand is simply beautiful!
Seeing Li Shimin's encouraging eyes, Tang Sufan had a strange look in his eyes.
I glanced at Li Shimin intentionally or unintentionally, but I still didn't know what Lao Li was thinking.
And by doing this, he naturally wanted to bring his little apprentice back to the right path, and secondly, he couldn't afford the reputation.
Otherwise, the higher you stand, the worse the dump will be.
I had already drafted a reason in my mind, and then spoke slowly.
"What do you know, just handing this over to Li Er? Are you giving him such an advantage?"
"But I'm too lazy to take the credit. After all, I still have the reputation of a little poetry fairy. You don't know, being an idol is very tiring~"
Tang Sufan sighed as he spoke, as if he was really tired.
Although I don’t know what the idol is in this kid’s mouth, but look at this kid’s expression.
I just knew he was shitting.
Li Shimin and his party: (￢_￢)
"But I don't want to hand it over. This thing is useful for both scholars and literature. I don't want to be regarded as an object of rejection by some old man..."
Wei Zheng: You can just give me your Chang'an residence permit number...
"But since we have handed over, I still want to get some benefits, right? Gao Ming is my apprentice. If you want to enter the officialdom in the future, you must not pave the way for them?"
After the old god Tang Sufan finished speaking, Fang Xuanling and others nodded in realization.
I see……
To put it bluntly, this guy is just giving credit to his apprentice.
At least, that's how they understand it~
Anyway, this kid doesn’t know their identities, so it’s reasonable for him to pave the way for his disciples.
On the other hand, the obedient Li Chengqian looked stunned, and then cast a grateful look at Tang Sufan...
"Of course, if you want to learn... then go find Gao Ming by yourself when the time comes~"
Wei Zheng finally understood that Tang Sufan was setting a record for himself~
If you want to learn, you must go to the prince to listen...
If so...
Li Shimin's eyes lit up and he immediately concluded: "Haha, what Su Fan said makes sense. I would like to thank you as a teacher for Gao Ming~"
Seeing that His Majesty and Tang Sufan had the same idea of "working together", I still didn't know what His Majesty was thinking.
Now that it's out of the hands of the prince, the meaning is completely different...
This matter was agreed upon, and Li Shimin also gave Li Chengqian a serious explanation.
You must study hard!
Li Chengqian immediately nodded with a serious face. As the prince, it was finally time for him to shine~
At this time, Li Chengqian did not have the various thoughts in the minds of these old foxes.
He only knows that this incident will make many people look at him with admiration, and that he, the prince, is no longer a mascot~
"By the way, Lao Li, why did you come here today? Tell me, besides eating, what else is important?"
After saying this, Tang Sufan turned to ask.
Li Shimin pretended not to have heard Tang Sufan's words and said immediately.
"This is not a matter of great importance to the bookstore. This is a grand event for scholars all over the world in the future. So I personally came to ask today, what is the next step after Chang'an Daily?"
"That's what you said. By the way, take a look at this. The first batch of books has been printed."
Having said this, Tang Sufan randomly took down a few brand-new books from the shelf next to him.
But it is very common for scholars to read 'The Analects of Confucius'.
The book is not thick, only half as thick as a little finger.
Li Shimin and others quickly took one copy each.
When I opened it and took a closer look, I found that every piece of paper on it was much less yellowed than the common books on the market.
Moreover, the handwriting is neat and tidy. After comparing two or three books, there is no difference in the handwriting.
Tang Sufan still put a lot of thought into this matter and would go to the workshop every day.
From the selection of materials for engraving characters to every step of paper production, Tang Sufan personally watched it.
The beating degree is strictly required three times, and there are strict requirements on the five-step process.
Especially for the cooking of paper pulp, several more steps are added on the basis of 'Cai Hou Paper' to make the paper in better quality.
After all, it was limited by the level of craftsmanship and technology of the era. Although it was not as absolutely smooth as later generations of paper, it was already much better than the craftsmanship of ordinary workshops.
After experiencing this step by step, Tang Sufan had a deeper feeling about reading.
Later generations are a society with information explosion and low learning costs. They simply cannot understand the degree of desire for knowledge and the difficulty of reading in ancient times.
Li Shimin and others looked at it for a long time, and they were full of admiration.
Finally, Li Shimin asked in amazement: "I didn't expect it to be so fast. How much does it cost to make such a book?"
Tang Sufan thought about it carefully and said roughly: "It's probably less than a hundred words. The exact statistics can't be calculated until the first batch of books are completely released~"
"What, less than a hundred dollars?!!"
The eyes of several old men suddenly widened!
The shocked sound even spread out of the yard.
It should be noted that a book on the market usually costs a thousand copies. If it is a rare hand-copied book, the price may go up!
And the cost of this book is only a hundred words. What is the concept! ! !
This means that the cost of studying for poor people in the world will be greatly reduced, and poverty will begin to rise! The government will be prosperous!
Tang Sufan looked at the shocked expressions of the several old men and smiled: "The scale is small now, and in winter, the cost of papermaking is higher than usual, so I will only say after the spring of next year that the book will be printed and distributed."
"As for other general bookstores, most of them are in the hands of the Guanzhong family, and the price control is relatively high~"
"In addition, without my unique printing technology, printing or handwriting accounts for half of the cost. With my printing, as long as the first set of abrasive tools are made, the cost of subsequent printing can be said to be very low, and printing Everything can be used~”
"When the scale is fully formed, the cost should be able to be reduced..."
Li Shimin couldn't help but take a deep breath. He had thought that the cost of three to four hundred yuan was already the limit!
Unexpectedly, Tang Sufan gave him a huge surprise!
What a surprise!
This is the surprise!
