After the incident involving the Confucian leader ended, Little Saint Xian Manor returned to what it was before.
After Ziyou came back, he was supposed to fulfill his duties as the second master of Xiaoshengxian Village and teach the students. However, the students found that their second master had disappeared, and the professors only learned that Ziyou was hiding in the garden of his heart. Know what to do.
The Heart Garden is a separate courtyard of Xiaoshengxian Manor. It is built near the sea and is not in Xiaoshengxian Manor.
This was given to Xunzi by the king of Qi. Now he belongs to Ziyou. I don't know who leaked the news. The whole Xiaoshengxian Village knew that Ziyou was going to write a book about it.
When the news came out, the professors at Xiaoshengxian Village didn't believe it. They thought Ziyou wasn't that capable yet.
However, after Shen Shiyu spread the opening chapter of "Xing Lun", that is, the Xinxue, the first few sentences shocked the entire Confucianism. The introduction of the Xinxue gave Confucianism an unprecedented path, and immediately attracted some people to start learning.
But they found that what Ziyou gave was just an opening chapter, with no specific content. This caused some great scholars to yell and scold, and they all wanted to come to ask Ziyou to finish writing.
Later, when they learned that Ziyou was writing a book, everyone became quiet again, because they knew that as long as Ziyou successfully finished writing, there would be another Confucian classic.
As the situation of Confucianism was noticed by hundreds of schools of thought, hundreds of schools of thought also panicked. Confucianism is already powerful enough. If you come out with a young sage who writes books, how can we still play? Among them, the most worrying one is the six-fingered black man of the Mo family.
"Hey, Confucianism really has a remarkable figure." The six-fingered black man said while looking at the Xinglun in his hand.
The one area where Mohism has no power to fight back against Confucianism is practicality. Now he can see the progress of Confucianism in this aspect from the opening chapter of "Lun". The unity of knowledge and action makes Confucianism more comprehensive no matter how you look at it.
"Really? It seems that brother Ziyou will also become a sage." Jing Ke said with bright eyes. Compared with the worries of other people in the Mo family, Jing Ke was very happy because he felt that he would soon have someone who could become a sage. I am a good friend, and it will be more honorable to tell it myself.
As soon as Jing Ke's words came out, some people's faces immediately turned gloomy. Six-fingered Black Man didn't know whether to be happy or laugh at Jing Ke's thoughts.
Because Jing Ke really expressed the righteousness of the Mo family very well, and it came from the heart, but how do you behave so well with the mortal rival of the Mo family?
Jing Ke was friends with Zi You, and he always felt that one day Jing Ke would be tricked by Zi You into selling the entire Mo family.
It was not only the Mohists who were worried, but all other schools of thought were worried and curious about what kind of book Ziyou would write. For a time, Sanghai's heartland became the center of attention. Ziyou, who was said to be the author of books and established theories, was slowly Drink tea slowly.
"This is the paper that sir said, can it be used to write things?" Snow Girl said, looking at the white and soft paper in her hand.
The things used for writing nowadays are calligraphy brushes, bamboo slips, carved knives, and silk. Bamboo slips are the most common. The processed bamboo slips can be well preserved. Silk, silk and silk books are too expensive to make and are generally only used by the powerful and the royal family. Affordable.
Compared to Xue Nu's curiosity, Concubine Yan and Jing Salamander knew better what would happen once something like paper came out.
They watched Ziyou make the paper and knew that the cost of paper was extremely low and the production process was simple. The key was that it was extremely convenient to write on and easier to store than bamboo slips.
Concubine Yan couldn't imagine what would happen to Baijia once the paper spread. At the same time, she was a little worried about Ziyou, because the popularity of paper would also affect the interests of some people, such as nobles and wealthy families.
"Of course." Ziyou said and handed the brush to Xue Nu and asked Xue Nu to try writing.
As for why Ziyou made paper, we have to start with Ziyou holding a carving knife to carve words on bamboo slips. Because of the low efficiency, Ziyou thought of paper.
So he found some reliable people to help him. The paper he made at first was of poor quality. Later, after several struggles, he made paper that could be written on, but it was also defective.
Xue Nu looked at the writing brush gently writing Ziyou's name on the paper. Looking at the words on the paper, Jing Salad and Yan Fei also took the writing brush and wrote some words. The experience of using paper for the first time made them feel Very novel.
"The function of paper is not just for writing." Ziyou said. Of course, paper is not just for writing. Paper has many functions.
"To make money, if it is used to sell it, hundreds of families and powerful people will definitely flock to it." Concubine Yan said.
Most of today's classics are single copies, because copying them on bamboo slips is too troublesome and cumbersome. In addition, hundreds of schools and sects have many classics, so copying them is a troublesome thing.
The emergence of paper has obviously solved this problem. It has many advantages such as low cost, simple writing, easy to carry, etc. Hundreds of companies will definitely buy it, including the powerful.
"This is just a part. What if I want some people to use it for free?" Ziyou said as he took a sip of light tea.
"Favors, huge favors, now we control the number of them, making it hard to get any paper." Jing Salamander said.
When paper first begins to circulate, the quantity cannot be too large, but the benefits of paper are so many, each family will definitely compete to get the paper first, so that they will owe you a favor. Even if the quantity of paper increases in the end, these People have nothing to say.
"Not only that, I also want a quota." Ziyou said, since I have to cut leeks, how can I let go of the quota?
Ziyou took a few pieces of paper and wrote some words on the top. After folding it, he handed it to Xue Nu and said
"Concubine Xue'er Yan, go to Little Saint's Manor and give this to the teacher."
"Okay sir." Xue Nu put away her things and took Concubine Yan away.
Jingyu and Ziyou were the only ones left in the room.
"What are you going to do if you separate the two of them?" Jing salamander looked at Ziyou and asked.
"Take a look at this first." Ziyou handed Luo Wang's token to Jing Salamander.
"Is this the command token of Luo Sheng? How come you have this?" Jing Salamander asked in surprise.
"I said I would help you get rid of the trap, and of course I have to do it. Now Lu Buwei has handed over the trap to me. From today on, you can live freely in the sun. You are no longer a ruthless killer in the trap. ." Ziyou said looking at Jing Salamander.
Jingli looked at the snare token in her hand, then looked at the soft smile on Ziyou's face, and tears flowed down from the corner of her eyes. From today on, she and her children finally no longer have to live a secretive life. Jing Salamander's nerves were completely relaxed after his biggest worry was solved. He almost fell down when his body went limp, but Zi You's quick eyesight and hands caught Jing Salamander in time.
Jing Salamander was hugged by Zi You and lay down in Zi You's arms. Zi You's fingers gently wiped away the tears on Jing Salamander's face and said
"Everything is safe now and you are a free man."
"Thank you." Jingyu said softly while lying in Ziyou's arms. She didn't know when she started to rely on this man.
Ziyou felt the beauty in his arms. He didn't know how Liu Xiahui could hold it back. Feeling the beauty in his arms, a man's instinctive reaction came. Jingyu obviously felt Ziyou's reaction, and his body moved slightly. A shudder.
Ziyou said with some embarrassment
"Excuse me."
"Yanyan'er is on the road." Jing salamander said softly.
Hearing Jing Salamander say this, Ziyou's embarrassed look disappeared immediately, he picked up Jing Salamander and said with a smile
"It's over there on the road. It just so happens that Yan'er has reached the day of study. Let Lu teach her how to read in the past few days."
