I receive courier in Datang

Chapter 179: Movable Type Printing

Zou Qi's master is an idler in the mountains, so naturally he would not join Li Chengqian. Even if Li Er asked him, he would not agree. He has the same personality as Yuan Tiangang.

Li Chengqian: "Who is your master?"

"Your Highness doesn't know even if I tell you, it's better not to tell." Zou Qi said.

"Then why did he agree with you to serve in the imperial court?" Li Chengqian asked.

"When he was young, he failed the exam." Zou Qi said.

Li Chengqian: "???"

So real!Is it okay if you fail the exam?

"When will you succeed him as the leader of the Yin Yang family?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Just wait until he dies." Zou Qi said.

Li Chengqian nodded, fortunately, it is good to have something to look forward to.

"When will your master die?" Li Chengqian asked.

"Negative emotion value from Zou Qi, +159"

"He is in good health!" Zou Qi said.

Li Chengqian: "..."

"Your Highness, I will go back first, there are still things to do." Zou Qi said.

Li Chengqian asked curiously: "Zou Qi, what do you think the sun and moon look like?"

"The sun is the source of all things, the moon just reflects its light." Zou Qi said.

Li Chengqian was surprised: "Why didn't you tell everyone about this?"

Zou Qi: "I know this myself, but others don't. Isn't it a very cool thing?"

Li Chengqian: "..."

No wonder science has been unable to develop, because many people are thinking of Zou Qi.

"Okay, go get busy, I'll get you an astronomical telescope when I have time," Li Chengqian said.

Zou Qi was surprised, an astronomical telescope?It sounds amazing.

The next day, the newly arrived courier almost caused Li Chengqian to fall to the ground, but it turned out to be a stack of advertisements.

It is a very common sales advertisement, and the things on it are also things that can often be seen on the advertisements.

Very boring!Li Chengqian couldn't help sighing.

These papers are tougher and stronger than today's paper, but paper is just paper, what else can be so powerful?

Li Chengqian thought for a while, such a hard paper is a good choice for folding airplanes.

He quickly folded a paper airplane, then two, then three...

A whole bunch of paper airplanes!
When he came to the door, he started to fly the planes. These planes passed through the tall sunflowers, past the potatoes that were less than half dug, and finally came to the outside of the field.

It flew quite far. This distance surprised everyone. What is this?
"Which one of you wants to try?" Li Chengqian asked.

No one dared to answer, fearing that Li Chengqian would punish them.

"Xiao Ningzi, it seems that you still have to do this matter." Li Chengqian said.

Xiao Ningzi had no choice but to bite the bullet and come forward.

He picked up a paper airplane and looked at the calligraphy and paintings on it, feeling a little puzzled.

"Your Highness, what is this magical thing?" Xiao Ningzi asked.

"It's called a paper airplane, and it's made of paper." Li Chengqian said.

"Made of paper?" Xiao Ningzi asked.

"Yes."

"Negative emotion value from Xiao Ningzi, +129"

How can this be paper?Paper is not that strong.

He tried to fly, and he really flew out, but not as far as Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian said: "Is it fun?"

Xiao Ningzi nodded.

"Fly the rest out." Li Chengqian said.

Xiao Ningzi flew one after another, and he flew very happily.

"His Royal Highness, this paper airplane is so fun, I have never played with such a fun thing!" Xiao Ningzi said.

Everyone was extremely envious. Xiaocui also watched the paper planes flying out one by one. She wanted to try it.

Soon, Xiao Ningzi flew all the paper airplanes out.

"Is it fun?" Li Chengqian asked again.

"It's fun!" Xiao Ningzi said.

Li Chengqian: "Okay, you can pick up all the paper airplanes that flew out."

Xiao Ningzi: "???"

"Negative emotion value from Xiao Ningzi, +188"

He was very happy at first, but now, there is only regret, some paper airplanes, he even flew to the roof, how can he get them back now?
"Don't ask for help." Li Chengqian added.

Xiao Ningzi wants to cry but has no tears, what a tragedy!

He can only pick them up one by one, and the ones on the roof can only be climbed up by a ladder.

"Your Highness, the order quantity for our cemetery and Tomson First Grade has been greatly reduced." Lu Zihou said.

Li Chengqian: "It's natural. If you want to buy it, you have already bought it. If you don't know how to buy it, you naturally won't buy it."

"I'm afraid we won't be able to recover our costs!" Lu Zihou said.

"How much will you lose?" Li Chengqian asked.

"30 guan." Lu Zihou said.

"Ok?"

Li Chengqian became energetic in an instant, 30 guan, this is not a small amount!
If so much is lost, the effort of so much time is wasted.

"Well, let's make some leaflets and distribute them on the street every day. After they are distributed, sales should increase," Li Chengqian said.

"Leaflet?"

Li Chengqian explained, and Lu Zihou was shocked: "What a great idea!"

Li Chengqian told Lu Zihou the idea of ​​movable type printing by the way.

Lu Zihou: "???"

If flyers are a good business idea, then movable type printing is a unique invention!
"His Royal Highness, this movable type printing technique is very powerful." Lu Zihou said.

Li Chengqian: "Actually, it's just to make printing leaflets easier."

Soon, the leaflets were printed, not with movable type printing, but with woodblock printing.

The movable type is still in production.

Soon, the people who got the first batch of leaflets on the street were children, making a little money.

Everyone likes children, and the leaflets were distributed very smoothly. People who knew about it were very surprised. This method is really good!

So, people began to follow suit.

Imitation is naturally to be completely imitated, and businessmen began to study the slogans on the leaflets.

"Classic design, reasonable price, Lanling Cemetery, your best choice."

"Lake view, green ecology, park, art education, center, Tomson first-class, give you exclusive enjoyment!"

These statements are very novel, and many businesses have begun to design their own slogans.

As a result, leaflets became a new trend in Chang'an City, and large merchants distributed leaflets.

Everyone is naturally very happy. Now, when we go to the hut, we finally have comfortable paper to use. This is a very good thing.

The first movable type printing plate was produced, and Yan Lide held it and kept admiring it.

"Why didn't I think of such a simple design? His Royal Highness is indeed a genius!" Yan Lide said.

"My lord, do you want to take this thing to the saint?" the master asked.

"Yes, take it quickly, the saint will be very happy when he sees it." Yan Lide said.

The first movable type printing plate was sent to Li Er.

Li Er took a small movable type printing board and started playing with it curiously.

Different words are combined to form a sentence, and then combined to form another sentence.

"Gao Ming's invention is quite interesting!" Li Er said.

In fact, the one given to Li Er is a model, which is naturally very interesting. The real movable type printing plate is not so interesting.
