Vol 2 Chapter 720: Cultural war

The Yangzhou University Entrance Examination, Qiao Gong's annotations, and printing techniques have completely set off a wave in the entire Han Dynasty.
"Old Litou, where are you going?!" A farmer looked at the old Litou of the same village on the other side and asked, now it is the time when the farmer is busy, people are unable to leave, but the old Litou It was to put down the and put on the only piece of clothing in the family with only five or six patches. This is the rhythm of entering the city.
"Can you do it, go into the city!" Lao Li said to the farmer over there.

Where to enter the city? Visit relatives?
asked the doubts of the farmer. If he visits relatives, he can go back a few days later.
"Oh, this is going to the city, buy books for the kids!" Lao Litou said to the farmer of the same village.
When Zhuang Jiahan heard the old Li’s words, he opened his mouth.
Do not laugh at Lao Li’s head. Do you still buy books from your family’s home? Can you afford it?
This is not ridicule but a kind of persuasion. The value of a book is as high as a few gold. Even if the old acres of the first few acres of farmland are sold, there is not so much money to come out.
"You can still lie to you!" Lao Li’s head was in a hurry. The countryman also paid attention to his face. "I want to buy two books, no, three books, give us two children, let him read, and do it later." The big official, at least like the lieutenant!" In the mind of Lao Litou, Li Chang is a big official.
"Ha ha, still do official + ¢, w" ww. Hey, old Li head, you are not drinking that little wine today, you are not afraid that your wife will give you two screams (slap) to eat!" The amount of arguing, slowly surrounded by a circle of people, listening to the old Li head where I was crazy and I laughed.
The old Li head was run by several fellow villagers without a word. His face turned red. "Hey. Hey. Hey, it’s true! You don’t believe it, you guys have a lot of money!"
"Ha ha!" The fellow countrymen have already regarded Lao Litou as a joke.
"What's wrong, what's wrong!" Just in the middle of noisy, a man wearing bureaucratic clothes ran over.
"There is a long time coming, and the lieutenant is coming!" This person is the length of the village, and his authority is not big, but he also manages hundreds of households, and it is also a bureaucrat. The big guy is still very respectful to him. Because the food seeds that the big guys need to grow up, the cattle that are arable, the farm tools, are all obtained from this long-running hand. So it is still very majestic.
"Li Chang, this old Li head, may be drunk, and even thinking about letting their two children be the official, but also to go to the city to buy books, this is not a delusion~!" Lao Li’s head was a joke and he gave it to the lieutenant.
"When the official?" Li Sha shook his head, this official thing is really not good to do, he is just a slap in the face, the official thing is almost a hundred thousand miles away.
"Look. I will say that Lao Litou is drinking too much, even the longest has not heard of it! Where can he know!" Looked at the long look. The name of the village over there is more and more that this is the old Li head's infatuation.
"I didn't drink!" Lao Li's face was red and terrible.
"Okay, okay!" Long shot clap his hands. "It’s not good to be an official, but the old Li head is right. There are books in this city. I am afraid that I really want to buy books. "Li Zhong said to the people below."
"Ah, Lao Litou, you are rich!" Everyone looked at the expression of Lao Li’s head and changed his mind. He knew that being able to buy a book is a skill that rich people can have. A book is worth a few dollars. This year, an acre of fertile land is only two thousand dollars.
"Go, go, where is the rich, and the housewife has sold a dozen eggs and hens under the hen's hens together for a hundred dollars, letting you buy books!" Said to the folks over there, the villagers were surprised that the old Li head actually sold him the old hen who could lay eggs, but even more surprised that the old Li head actually only took a hundred dollars to buy books? Isn't that a joke? The people did not believe it.
But there was a long nod there, and he nodded. "If you buy it right, it would be okay to buy two or three good books."
This lieutenant also bought a lot of books, although he couldn't read it, but he could have a book in his home, indicating that this is the first book of the book, so he grew his heart and bought a car book and went back to their home. A yard in the city sold him.
With these books in the mansion, even if you don't understand, you can make a difference. To know that there are books in the family, it is really a wealthy family.
"No, one hundred yuan, can you buy three or two books?" The people there don't believe it. The hundred mosquitoes are very big for them, but they are not big enough to buy books. Two or three books.
"I can lie to you in this long-term squad!" The long-time watchmakers who looked at the bottom of the hand did not believe that their words could not help but anger.
"Don't dare, don't dare!" The people are still a kind of people who don't like officials. It’s very respectful to the lieutenant, but the face is obviously not believed.
"When the old Li head comes back in the evening, you will know it! Lao Litou, it will take a while to go to the city from our village. You can go to the car of your brother!" Long waved his hand to Lao Li. Said the head.
"How does this make it, what makes this, Lao Litou is a little sincere and fearful, that ox cart, generally no one dares to sit, because there is only two or three heads in a village, each villager can Think of these cattle as a baby.
"What can't be done! Just become a brother to go to the city, you go with it!" "The length of the long is very large. Under the thanks of the old Li head, the cow car of Cheng Geer set off."
"Okay, it’s all gone!" There was a long wave of waving over the villagers under the hand.
After all, I have to be busy with farming, so everyone is also a bit of hard work, and they are gone. If you join in the fun, you need to finish your own things.
The sky soon faded and the sun was set.
The people have also completed the day's busy farming and will be packed up.
"You said that this old Li head has not come back yet!" Some people are still thinking about the daytime things.
"I am afraid I didn't buy a book, I dare not come back!" Many people are holding this idea.
"That is, this is a book to buy. I used to work in that big family. It is the Wu family in the city, you know. Master Wu!" One of the people said to the other.
"Master Wu? But the old man Wu who is doing tea business?" Some people know this Wu.
"Yeah, Master Wu is full of money, but Master Wu wants to buy a book and asks Grandpa to visit his grandmother. He finally bought a book and heard that he has spent dozens of gold!"
"Oh, so much!" Kim is an astronomical figure for these people.
"Yeah, so Lao Litou, this time to buy a book, is not a joke!"
"Don't say that. Maybe someone looks at the eye and sends a book to Lao Litou! Haha!" The crowd laughed and laughed. The ancients didn't have things like TV. These rumors were a joke. They were entertaining. The topic of Lao Litou can make them say a little for half a year.
"Old Li head is back, old Li head is back!" Just when everyone laughed, there was a sudden news coming over, and the old Li head came back. He came back with the brother who was driving the ox cart.
"Isn't the old Li head not buying a book!" asked someone on the other side.
"You have nothing to say with you!" Lao Li’s head turned away and did not care about other people’s gossip.
"It must be that the old Li head did not buy a book!" Everyone thinks so, because if the old Li head bought a book. He will still be like this, and he will have self-sufficiency. Where will it leave without a loud voice?
So those who originally ridiculed the old Li head are now more ridiculous. What old Li head is lazy, want to eat swan meat, what is the old Li head this is a daydreaming, and the like.
"Hey!" But the buddy over there couldn't help it, and couldn't help but sneer. "I still laugh at the old man's head, you guys, you just don't know what it is!" Cheng Geer sneered, one by one. In the gloating, but I don’t know, the one who is the most profitable is the old Li head.
Did Lao Li buy a book? He did buy it, not two books, but three books, but the old Li head did not say anything, and made a big fortune.
Because this old Li head bought a book, he got a benefit, that is, after hearing the book, after two months of busy farming, the second baby of their family can be enrolled.
It is admission, this small county under the Lijiang River has a total of three schools. After the farm is busy, you can enter school.
The reason why Lao Litou did not tell them was that he wanted to let his second child enter the school first. In this way, it would be faster than people.
"This old Li head, we are still a village with him!" Someone on the side listened to the words of a brother, immediately hated it, this old Li head is too kind.
"That is, that is, how to say that he is also his big sister, he does not tell others to tell me!"
Cheng Geer looked at these folks with contempt, and you just sneered at this big scorpion.
"Cheng Geer, is this true? This book only costs 30 yuan?" Some people still don't believe it.
"I lied to you for the benefits of a few pennies!" Cheng Geer disdain. "Look, I bought two!"
"Cheng Ge, can you read the book?" Someone laughed at the side.
"I don't understand, I can learn!" Cheng Ge said a little angry.
"Haha, Cheng Geer, you can still enter the school at this age!" A burst of laughter, leaving the brothers angry to drive the cattle back to the cowshed.
The children laughed and laughed, but the people were ignorant but not stupid. They sent their dolls into the school. There was no harm in the benefits. Anyway, when they were not busy, they all went home to take the money and take the money. Things to take things, the second day went all over the city to buy books.
They don't know how to read wisely. They only know that reading may be an official. Even if they can't be an official, they can go back and talk about the fact that our family's dolls are not literate.
On the second day, people gathered in various cities and pools, and books were not sold.
On each book, there is a saying "Reading wisely, reading what the saints have learned, and what the world is doing."
What is the old man's Qiao Xuan now, Liu Wei feels so pleasing to the eye, as long as there is a sentence, it can be said that more than half of the world's scholars will be honored by this public, and even some people have begun to put Qiao Xuan as a season saint, is from the hole The saint, Meng Shengren, is another Joe saint.
The face of Qiao Xuan is full of red light, and this face is completely earned.
"Lord, this book is so cheap to sell, will it be too bad!" In the hall, this family book is crying and sad, because this book to buy this thing, there is no profit, not to say those One pen has ink, this paper has to have the cost of fifteen texts, and Liu Wei only sells 30 texts in Yangzhou. If you count the artificial freight, you can say that you don’t make money and lose a lot.
"Zi Fang, education, it is a loss-making business!" Liu Wei can think of it, as long as it can make the people open wise, lose money at a loss, this book is not about making money, but focusing on earning talents. As long as there are thousands of children enrolled in a county, even if there is only one talent, then Liu Wei is earning money. It is difficult to change talents.
"The main public, the price in Yangzhou, there is nothing, but why is it sold in the Xuzhou of Zhangzhou, is this the price?" I don't even understand, you said that you open the people's wisdom in Yangzhou, 30 articles Even if you sell the book at a loss, why is it that the price is in other states and counties? Cao Cao in Ganzhou will be your enemy sooner or later. You are not an enemy.
"Oh, I can't help him Cao Cao to buy all the books!" Liu Wei smiled. The more books sold in other counties, Liu Yue is more happy, why, because there are Liu Wei in it. Calculation.
Why do people have to be fools, because they have not read books, so they are easy to be deceived, and once you have read the book, then the horizon of nature is different, the idea is different, maybe a doll in the mountains without reading the book I only thought about Zhang Da’s wife, who gave birth to a baby, but once he read the book, he will be infected by the fame or the scholars in the book. I think that they can do so.
There is a big test in Yangzhou, which can let the children of the cold door enter the officialdom, let them squid and jump to the gantry, but there is no such thing in other states and counties, not everyone can not see the benefits of this big test.
The opening of the exam is a reshuffle of the sects. The sects can no longer maintain the superiority of his reading. Previously, they were all children of the sects. As long as they were not fools, they could be filial officials. Once you have opened the exam, it is offensive to the sect.
Liu Wei is not afraid of offending the clan, because the Yangzhou sects have basically ran away. The Jiangdong sects have been killed by Liu Wei and they have not been able to talk. The Xuzhou sects also migrated to Zhangzhou. Three can be said. The place is completely under the vacuum of the clan's rights. Which one of the sects dare to play with Liu Wei?
The other princes are different. For example, Jingzhou, even if Liu Biao hates Cai Wei, he does not dare to kill Cai Wei. It is because the Cai family is so powerful that killing the Cai Wei family may be a big turmoil. He also wants to rely on these individual sects.
How dare they open a big test, and opening a big test is to offend the family of the sect, this is not to die!
Without opening the exam, those people who have opened up the people's wisdom will not agree, and there are only two choices left for them. One is to come to Yangzhou to take the exam, so that the students in the world will inevitably gather in Yangzhou. One option is to fight against those sects, so that the local princes are overwhelmed, no matter which choice is beneficial to Liu Wei's Yangzhou.
Therefore, Liu Wei will sell books so cheaply. This is the output of a lot of culture and a war of culture.
The continuous stream of books from Yangzhou was printed and dumped in the land of Dahan Kyushu. The book suddenly changed from a privilege of the sect to something of ordinary people.
Every household, whether poor or rich, has a few books and is embarrassed to go out and meet people.
