Vol 4 Chapter 2491: Engraving and printing to spread culture

Liu Muzhi opened his eyes wide and murmured: "Printing? This, I haven't heard of this before, Ji slave, could it be that this is something you came up with?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly, and took out a seal from his arms, and said, "This is what I suddenly thought of. Look at this seal. It is no more than the thickness of two fingers, made of jade, and engraved on it. Just like the inscription, you can apply ink on it, and then cover it with paper, and you can print the inscription on the paper."
Liu Muzhi laughed: "However, the inkpad used in this stamp is very expensive, and a stamp is so big, it is not easy to print many characters on paper."
Liu Yu smiled and waved his hand: "Then combine it with this inscription and make a whole piece of plane. You don't need to use jade. You can use good-quality jujube or sandalwood. One piece is three feet square and you can engrave a few pieces on it. Hundreds of characters, let the characters bulge out, and then put ink on the characters. Dyes can be added to the ink to change into different colors. Specifically, the craftsmen can test the ratio in the ink. In this way, the entire board surface dyed with ink can be printed on the paper by covering it with a piece of paper and pressing hard, and then as long as a little more ink is added, the next piece of paper can be printed. Up."
Having said that, Liu Yu bent down and picked up a branch? He made a gesture on the ground: "When our farmer is raking the ground? There is this kind of rake? You see, a wooden roller is installed on one side, like a mill, just go to the ground. As soon as you put it inside, as soon as it rolls, the ground is level."
Liu Muzhi nodded and touched his beard: "Wonderful? As long as this paper is covered on the inscribed plate, it is tightened around him, and he only needs to roll it with this roller? The ink can be printed. It’s on the paper, don’t you need to press as hard as you did when you seal the stamp? The words on a piece of paper have different shades and colors. Genius idea, Jiu? How could you think of this?"
Liu Yu secretly said in his heart: I will tell you the era before I crossed? Is this common? But he still laughed: "Because, I have been thinking? Since ancient times? Aristocratic clans? Control knowledge in their own hands, prefer to engrave on bamboo slips, or find disciples and students to copy books? It takes time and effort. , Is not easy to spread, is it really technically impossible, or is it intentional?"
Liu Muzhi's brows lightly frowned: "What you said, I thought about it before. At least in the past few hundred years, there have been inscriptions and stone inscriptions and rubbing techniques. It is said that the whole tablet can be rubbed out. It can be done, but the rubbing method will also damage the stone tablet. After all, the ink will be soaked over the years, which will damage the stone tablet. Moreover, it has never been easy to find someone to carve a stone tablet. Speaking of emperors and generals, at least they must be big families, like you and my father and grandfather, they are also scholars, there is no stone monument after death, that is, a wooden sign is placed there."
Liu Yu nodded: "But now we have enough manpower. The rulers of previous dynasties often used the power of the people to build palaces and gardens for themselves to satisfy their own needs for play. Not only is it not good for the country and the people, but It will make people angry. I will never do this kind of thing in my life."
Liu Muzhi nodded his head: "Hold the power of the world without forgetting your original intention. You are really admirable by sending slaves. The reason why many ancient heroes were corrupted, depraved, and lost by power is because once they become rich, they will Lose yourself and be content with pleasure."
Liu Yuzheng said: "Yes, the fall of a country begins with the fall of the ruler, and the fall of an ethnic group begins with the fall of the upper-class scholars. Look at Dajin, it is the best example. The high school only knows to enjoy, then the whole country is literary and martial arts, and the minds of the people change, even if there is no Huan Xuan rebellion, even if there is no Mafia conspiracy, let alone the Northern Expedition, it will be subjugation. Right, we must be responsible to the people of the world and must not follow their old ways."
Speaking of this, Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "The reason why aristocratic families can hold power, to put it bluntly, is because they have knowledge, because they have these books passed down from generation to generation, know the past allusions, and therefore govern the country. They have to be. Our Beijing eight brothers, although we can use force to fight the world, we cannot rule the world with knives and guns. This is the culprit that the family's high school can still hold us. To break this situation, the best way is to Let everyone be literate, at least let the family members of the Beijing eight brothers literate, let the people who have contributed to the country, and the people who have done their best for the country, literate, master the culture, and have the ability to govern the country, and I can not be controlled by those noble families. , Coerced. There is no need to make all kinds of concessions to them."
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly and looked at the rake painted on the ground: "So, you thought of using this kind of printing, printing, and copying a large number of books, so that a large number of people can quickly literate and hyphenate? Then, these People who have literacy, mastered the culture, and have the ability to govern the country will be grateful to you and be used by you? So, just like mastering the Beifu Army and controlling the Dajin knife, use these new education Can you control Dajin's pen?"

Liu Yu nodded: "I don’t want them to be grateful to me. I want them to be grateful to the country and to our court. Everything I have is just the power given to me by the country. Our country is All the money, food, manpower, and material resources made up by one person are contributed by the people, and they should have the right to accept these rewards. Like the current situation of Jiangbei immigrants who do not know what the country is, it is the lack of education. The problem is our problem. If someone can tell them the Three-Character Sutra, Twenty-Four Filial Piety, and the stories of those loyal officials and filial sons, how come they are?"
Liu Muzhi nodded vigorously: "It's so good. We Jingkou people have been loyal to the country since we were young. Every family has heroes who died for the country. So example speaks better than words, but people in other places don't have this idea. Moreover, since the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty, the nation was founded on the basis of Qingxuan, and most of the Taoist ideas that have been promoted are self-cultivation and no country and abandon the family. What they want is extreme selfishness, which is incompatible with the Confucian philosophy of economics. If you want to use Confucian scholars as teachers, sir, and then use this printing technique to make a large number of books and teach the common people’s culture, then you will be not only a generation of war gods, but also the first person who created the world since the foundation of the world, you His fame and fame will surpass the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, and surpass all emperors throughout the ages, and they will last forever!"
