Ying Shou waved his hand and said in a deep voice.

At this moment, Concubine Xue was also preparing to step forward, hearing this, she hurriedly said: "That's right, let me come!"

As she spoke, she took the towel from the maid, washed it, wrung it dry, and began to wipe the emperor's face.

Her hands and feet are very gentle, as if she is afraid of hurting others.

After washing her face and Ying Shou rinsed her mouth, Xue Ning picked up the comb and came behind Ying Shou, and said softly, "I will tie your hair for Your Majesty!"

As she said that, she picked up Ying Shou's hair, combed it to the end, gently smoothed Ying Shou's hair, and finally tied her hair and put on a crown. Everything was done in one go, without any sense of unfamiliarity, as if she had practiced it a long time ago.

Ying Shou just sat there quietly, letting her do what she wanted.

After all this was done, the sky was already bright.

Xue Ning personally put rice porridge and soup on the stone table in front of Ying Shou, filled a bowl of rice porridge and a bowl of soup for Ying Shou, and said softly, "Your Majesty, can I have a meal?"

Ying Shou squinted at him, with a complicated and strange expression on his face.

"Yeah! Concubine Ai, let's eat too!"

Ying Shou nodded slightly, responded, picked up the rice porridge by himself, and began to taste it.

The same kind of food, cooked by a thousand people, has a thousand different flavors.

Although the rice porridge is made according to the health recipes left by Queen Nan Yan, the taste is completely different from that made by the Queen, but generally speaking, it is still delicious.

Ying Shou finished eating in twos and twos, while Xue Ning was still chewing slowly.

Ying Shou got up, turned his back to Xue Ning, and said, "I know, you didn't rest well last night. Later, you have a good rest!"

With that said, Ying Shou turned around and left.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Xue Ning quickly got up and said respectfully.

Ying Shou left Chaoyang Palace and went straight to Xianyang Palace.

Xianyang Palace is the largest palace in the imperial city, and it is also the main hall of the front palace. Even the early dynasty was established in the main hall of Xianyang Palace.The entire palace is basically named after the Xianyang Mansion.

"See Your Majesty!"

As soon as Ying Shou arrived, the guards in front of the palace immediately bowed to pay homage.

"Be flat!"

Ying Shou waved his sleeves, walked into the study of Xianyang Palace, and shouted: "Come here, Mo Shang, Minister of the Ministry of Communication, is here to see you!"

"promise!"

The guard below responded and immediately turned around and left.

After the guard left, Ying Shou slowly closed his eyes and sank into the system interface in his mind.

The system interface is still lifeless, without any vitality.

Especially after entering this time, Ying Shou felt that the system interface was extremely cold, as if there was something wrong with the system itself.

He looked up and down in the system interface, always having a strange feeling, as if something was missing in the system.

He didn't pay attention to it before, but now that he looked carefully, this feeling became stronger and stronger, but he couldn't tell what was missing.

After a long time, I couldn't find the answer, and Ying Shou didn't bother to think about it. He reached out and clicked on the system mall page. Inside, there was a dazzling array of things, and countless things appeared.

Ying Shou searched for it and spent 500 million emperor experience points in exchange for various designs and treatments.

When he came to Daqin, Ying Shou was disappointed by the backwardness of this era. It can be said that there is nothing to ask for. Many things that are common in later generations have never been heard of here.

Such as rice paper, toilet paper and the like.Another example is the tables, chairs and benches of later generations.

Although there is no shortage of tables, chairs and benches in this era, the design of tables, chairs, and stools is completely different from that of later generations, and they are not as comfortable to use as later generations.Even more people are familiar with sitting on the floor.

The so-called sitting on the ground means laying out a mat. If the condition is better, it will be paired with a table. If the condition is not good, just put things on the mat and start eating.

The same is true for hospitality, and the same is true for family gatherings. It is completely different from later generations.

This time, Ying Shou exchanged these design drawings one by one, including papermaking techniques, etc., without missing a single piece.

Here, things have just been exchanged one by one and arranged, and over there, Mo Shang, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, has also been ordered to enter the palace.

"My minister pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor, Long live Your Majesty!"

Mo Shang entered the hall and immediately knelt down to worship.

"Be flat!"

After Ying Shou knelt down at the table, he bowed to his hands.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Mo Shang kowtowed and stood up, respectfully said: "I don't know why Your Majesty suddenly summoned the humble officials into the palace?"

Upon hearing this, Ying Shou waved and said with a smile, "Come here! Sit down first!"

Mo Shang frowned, a little puzzled, but still stepped forward as promised, and sat down respectfully in front of Ying Shou.

Ying Shou reached out for a stack of rice paper, and said with a smile, "Aiqing, what do you think of this thing?"

Mo Shang was stunned, took the stack of rice paper, looked left and right, and said in surprise: "Your Majesty, what is this snow-white thing? What's the use for it?"

Ying Shou smiled and said: "This is called 'paper' for writing, instead of bamboo slips, look!"

With that said, Ying Shou took down a piece of rice paper and spread it out, picked up the brush, dipped it in ink, waved his hand, and started writing on the rice paper.

Soon, a line of large characters emerged, black and white, clearer than those written on bamboo slips.

"This……"

When Mo Shang saw this, his pupils froze and he almost uttered a sound.

"How is it, does it feel okay?"

Ying Shou looked up and said with a smile.

"Isn't this too obvious? Your Majesty, where does this rice paper come from and how is it made?"

Mo Shang nodded hastily. As the minister of the Ministry of Industry and he was born in Jixia Academy, he knew very well how wonderful it would be if he could use this thing to record words.

"Ai Qing, don't worry, I'll show you one more thing!"

Ying Shou waved his hand, took a book from the side, and handed it to Mo Shang.

Mo Shang had never seen such a thing as a book. He had only seen bamboo slips. For a while, he was even more surprised to see that this thing was all made of paper.

Hastily finished, only to see two large characters "Spring and Autumn" written on the cover of the book

"Spring and Autumn!"

Mo Shang read these two words, and quickly opened the book, only to see page after page of subtitles in the book, which is really the giant "Spring and Autumn" left by Confucius.

Chapter 481 Papermaking and Printing

"This is really the Spring and Autumn of Confucius!"

Mo Shang hurriedly turned to the last page, only to see that this small book contained all the contents of Confucius' Spring and Autumn Annals, and was inexplicably horrified for a while.

The Spring and Autumn Annals of Confucius is a masterpiece, with a total of [-] characters, engraved on bamboo slips, which can almost fill a bookshelf.

However, this small book is no more than one finger thick, but it contains all the spring and autumn that cannot be recorded in a basket full of bamboo slips, which is simply amazing.

"This is called a book. In a book, the book is not big, but the content recorded on two sheets of paper is equivalent to a bamboo slip. When hundreds of characters are gathered together, a great book "Spring and Autumn" is recorded in it.

"And this is also the reason why characters take up more space. Otherwise, at most ten sheets of paper can record the entire "Spring and Autumn"." Ai Qing thinks, if this rice paper is used to make a book to record all the inheritance of the great work, how about it?"

Looking at Mo Shang's surprised expression, Ying Shou couldn't help but smile and said.

While speaking, he couldn't help but think of the ballpoint pens and fountain pens in his previous life.

The words written by these pens occupy a small space.

[-] characters and ten sheets of rice paper are indeed enough to compose the [-]-character Spring and Autumn Annals.

However, he had thought it over before, and finally canceled the idea of ​​​​exchanging these things.Relatively speaking, he likes writing with a brush.

"What, Your Majesty is saying that you plan to vigorously produce rice paper and books to promote the world?"

Mo Shang was taken aback, and said in disbelief, "Can this thing really spread across the world?"

When he saw Ying Shou's writing on the rice paper just now, he already had this idea.

But this thing has never been seen or heard before. He doesn't know whether it is difficult to make or whether it can be popularized in the world.

At this moment, the emperor's words immediately gave him great hope.

Nowadays, with the establishment of academies all over the world, the supply of letters carved on bamboo slips is already in short supply. For this reason, the Ministry of Industry is making a large number of letters every day, which is too troublesome for me.

in case……

He didn't dare to think too much, he could only think of two words, if!

If the method of making this thing is simple, and the daily output can be increased, and it becomes popular all over the world, it will be more desirable than the letter.

For the inheritance of Daqin culture, it will also play a shocking speed and effect.

"Of course it can be promoted in the world. It is precisely because of this that I called you here today!"

Ying Shou nodded and said with a smile: "Aiqing, I'm too busy these days, and I know that the Ministry of Industry has no spare time.

Now, the important matters of Daqin should have been on the right track, so I took these things out.

The production of this book is a combination of papermaking and movable type printing.

I have all the information here, you can take a rough look first, and estimate that the Ministry of Industry is now capable of mass production.

If the power of the Ministry of Industry is not enough, I can hand it over to others! "

While speaking, Ying Shou took out a large stack of documents and placed them in front of Mo Shang.

Mo Shang didn't read all of them at once, but picked up the outline introduction of papermaking and the outline introduction of movable type printing. Your Majesty, that is very good."

"It can be produced in large quantities. Don't worry, Your Majesty, this thing can be produced in large quantities."

"Nowadays, the most troublesome thing for the Ministry of Industry is that the production and engraving of letter slips are in short supply!"

"In order for all the children in Daqin to be able to enter school and have their own slips, the number of people who specialize in making slips and writing content in the Ministry of Industry has expanded to more than [-], which is still a drop in the bucket."

"Now, with this papermaking technology and this book replacement, the shortcomings will be greatly alleviated. Increase the daily production by at least a hundred times!"

While speaking, Mo Shang was overjoyed, and said: "Your Majesty, I will go and ask someone to rush to make a sample, deliver it to Your Majesty, and then start making!"

While talking, Mo Shang was overjoyed, and got carried away, holding the book and a pair of materials, and was about to leave.

"Slow down!"

Ying Shou watched quietly from the side. Seeing this, he quickly waved his hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I have a series of other things that I want to hand over to you. You can make all the samples for me."

"In order to promote these things as soon as possible, I will order the treasury to allocate funds to recruit another 10 people to work for the Ministry of Industry!"

While talking, Ying Shou didn't talk nonsense, he gave an order, and someone came in immediately, and under Ying Shou's guidance, he picked up a mountain of documents from behind.

"so much?"

Seeing this, Mo Shang's eyes widened and his face was filled with disbelief.

However, he hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty will not disappoint His Majesty's trust. Give me a few days, and I will send the samples!"

Saying that, he said his farewell, and left directly with the people.

Ying Shou got up and watched Mo Shang leave in a hurry, he couldn't help being a little funny.

Sure enough, good things can be easily taken over anywhere.

At this moment, this Mo Shang came into contact with things like rice paper and books, and because of his extensive knowledge, he was enough to realize the benefits of this thing, and he might not be able to sleep if he was not excited for a few days and nights.

People in this era are like this, especially these sages of various schools and sects, their desire for knowledge and inheritance has reached the point of madness.

The papermaking technology and live printing technology that Ying Shou suddenly brought out fully satisfied all their desires.

On this side, Mo Shang had just left, and on the other side came the news that Mu Shan, the owner of Mu's Commercial Firm, had come to see him.

Ying Shou left the study and sat down in the courtyard. After a while, Mu Shan came behind Ying Shou and knelt down to salute.
