Because buying and selling are the same crime in Dachu's criminal law on abduction, the Paihuazi case involved many people. Many prisoners were sentenced to death, but the people all applauded.
When going to Tianyan Pavilion, Chu Siqing did not forget to talk about this matter with Tu Qingchen.
Chu Siqing said: [It would be great if the various trafficking techniques used by Paihuazi could be published in the newspapers, so that they could be widely publicized and raise people's awareness of preventing trafficking. 】
She suddenly thought of something and asked Tu Qingchen: "Are there newspapers in this world?" 】
Tu Qingchen thought for a while and replied: [Only the Di newspaper, the content is mainly about palace affairs, and only the princes and ministers can read it. 】
Chu Siqing wondered: [How come no one runs a newspaper about gossip news? This way ordinary people can also watch it. 】
She couldn't help but fantasize about running a gossip newspaper and making a lot of money.
[I feel like this will definitely sell well. After all, who in the world doesn’t like to eat melons? 】
Tu Qingchen explained: [Newspapers must be copied by hand, and the price is not low. How can ordinary people afford it? 】
An idea flashed in Chu Siqing's mind: [Is there no movable type printing in this world? 】
Tu Qingchen understood what she was thinking and said: [No. 】
Chu Siqing laughed: [Thankfully you have been here for more than 20 years, but you haven't "invented" any technology. 】
Tu Qingchen rolled his eyes: [I was a liberal arts student in my previous life. I have only heard of many techniques, but I don’t know the specific methods at all~_~]
Chu Siqing said proudly: [This shows the importance of this saint! 】
Tu Qingchen asked curiously: [Do you know the technology of movable type printing? 】
Chu Siqing smiled coquettishly: [I don’t know the details, but I have a system mall! 】
Tu Qingchen's eyes lit up: [I almost forgot that you still have a golden finger, show it to me quickly. 】
Chu Siqing said to the system in his mind: [A Tong, open the system mall, I want to redeem "Movable Type Printing". 】
System: [Host, you have successfully redeemed "Mobile Type Printing", the points are -100, do you want to put it into the system space? 】
Chu Siqing said: "No, just take it out. Tu Qingchen is not an outsider." 】
System: [Okay. 】
The next moment, Tu Qingchen saw a book appear out of thin air in Chu Siqing's arms. The style was the same as Da Chu's book.
Tu Qingchen exclaimed: [How amazing. 】
He took the book and saw "Movable Type Printing" written on the cover. He turned it over and saw that the specific methods and procedures were introduced in Da Chu's writing.
Tu Qingchen: [Should I hand this book directly to the emperor? How should I tell him the origin of the book then? 】
Chu Siqing thought for a while and said: [Didn't you guess that I am a saint? Just say it was my idea and you can write it down. 】
Tu Qingchen: [...Okay. 】
Chu Siqing attached great importance to anti-trafficking and said again: "I think just publishing it in newspapers is not enough. Many people are illiterate. 】
She thought for a while and said: [It would be best to let the storyteller tell it in the teahouse, and arrange some dramas about trafficking to be performed, so as to comprehensively improve the people's awareness of preventing trafficking. 】
Tu Qingchen: [Okay. 】
Later, he reported these ideas of Chu Siqing to Emperor Chu Ming one by one.
Emperor Chu Ming nodded frequently when he heard this, and finally said with a smile while stroking his palms: "Master of the State, with you and the Holy Girl here, why should I, the Great Chu, be unhappy!"
Tu Qingchen complimented: "Your Majesty is so wise and decisive. The prosperity of Chu is all because of you."
Emperor Chu Ming's lips curled up: "You don't have to be humble if you love me."
Tu Qingchen glanced at it and quickly lowered his head. He felt that the emperor was quite happy to be praised for his wisdom.
Emperor Ming of Chu then convened the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Punishment to jointly discuss publicity and prevention of trafficking among the people.
In the imperial study room.
Emperor Ming of Chu said to Feng Zhonglin: "Give this book "Movable Type Printing" to Zhang Qing."
Eunuch Feng handed the book to the Minister of Industry.
Zhang Yuan did not dare to neglect and quickly browsed through the contents of the book.
After reading a few pages of the book, Zhang Yuan's expression changed from serious to shocked, and finally turned to ecstasy.
Emperor Chu Ming looked proud and said deliberately: "How do you like this book?"
Zhang Yuan said excitedly: "Your Majesty, with the printing technology described in this book, people will no longer need to copy books by hand. This will greatly increase the number of books in our country. The benefits are countless!"
After hearing this, Qu Huaiqing, the Minister of Rites, also looked curiously at the book in Master Zhang's hand.
Emperor Ming of Chu said: "Qu Qing and Du Qing should also read this book."
Zhang Yuan then passed the book to Qu and Du, two ministers.
Everyone looked happy after reading it. With this book, the price of Dachu's books will be reduced, and more people will be able to afford the book.
Emperor Ming of Chu said: "You must have heard about the recent case of paihuazi abduction and trafficking. I think that many children are abducted among the people, which has led to the separation of wives and families, and the death of many people. The impact is really bad."
He paused and then continued: "Now it is extremely urgent to raise people's awareness of preventing trafficking. Why not start a new newspaper and write about the usual methods used by photographers to warn about this matter."
The Minister of Rites doubted: "Your Majesty, the government already has a residence newspaper, is it a bit redundant to issue a new one?"
Emperor Ming of Chu replied: "Most of the imperial newspapers are read by officials. I want to create a new people's newspaper that can be read by all the people in Chu. In addition to preventing abductions, this publication will also have other uses in the future."
Everyone was thoughtful.
Because it was inconvenient to copy by hand, books, newspapers, etc. were all expensive, and ordinary people looked down upon them. Now that there is movable type printing, this matter of people's newspaper can be done.
Emperor Ming of Chu added: "In addition to publishing the matter in the newspapers, we also need to compile some cases of trafficking into stories, send storytellers to tell them in teahouses, and then compile some scripts for the stage troupe to perform."
Everyone was amazed and slapped the dragon's fart wildly.
The Minister of Rites was the first to say: "What the Emperor said is absolutely true."
The Minister of Punishment followed up and said: "Your Majesty is considerate of everything."
The Minister of the Ministry of Industry also held back a sentence: "The emperor cares about the people so much, it is a blessing for the people of Chu!"
Even though Emperor Chu Ming knew that they were complimenting him, he felt very comfortable.
Finally, he assigned tasks to each ministry: "The Ministry of Industry will make movable type printing, the Ministry of Punishment will summarize the cases and methods of trafficking in various places, and the Ministry of Etiquette will organize people's newspapers and write stories and plays."
Emperor Ming of Chu warned: "All ministries must cooperate with each other and must not shirk responsibility."
The ministers of all ministries were ordered to go down.
Next, they are all very busy.
Not long after, a new newspaper was released in the capital, called "People's Newspapers". The price was extremely low, attracting everyone to rush to buy it.
This common people's newspaper was different from the Di's newspaper. Most of the contents published were folk affairs, so it was later called a "people's newspaper" and spread to various places.
This issue of the civilian newspaper published a lot of tricks used to kidnap and traffic children. People who bought the newspaper took it very seriously.
At the same time, storytellers in major teahouses also told various stories about patters and abductors, and various theater troupes also lined up adapted scripts.
Suddenly, the people's awareness of anti-trafficking in the capital increased greatly.
These methods of publicizing and preventing trafficking were later imitated by prefects in various places. In the following time, the cases of Paihuazi trafficking almost disappeared in Dachu.
