The opening of the Three Kingdoms is Gatling

Cai Lun improved papermaking in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

Although the quality of paper has improved, books still need to be copied by hand.

Copying by hand is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to mistakes and omissions.

The price of a book is very expensive.

Most of the people who could afford to read books in the Han Dynasty were rich and powerful. Ordinary people couldn’t eat enough, so how could they have spare money to buy books?

In this way, there are great obstacles to the spread and development of culture.

At this moment, Guo Jia suddenly stood up.

He knelt down towards Hua Xiong on one knee, and said excitedly,

"My lord, I thank you on behalf of the scholars in the world!"

Everyone was taken aback, and instantly understood why he did this.

As soon as Huaxiong's movable type printing technology came out, it was easier to make books in the future.

The price of books will become cheaper, and even ordinary people will be able to afford books.

Therefore, Hua Xiong is definitely the benefactor of the underprivileged!

"My lord is not only extremely intelligent, but also has a kind heart, which my subordinates admire."

Gao Shun couldn't help sighing.

Others also nodded in agreement.

"Yes, from now on, everyone in the world will be able to afford books."

"My lord's move is comparable to that of Confucius!"

Hua Xiong couldn't laugh or cry.

He asked Ding Shuai to invent movable type printing wood, just to be lazy, but he didn't want to be misunderstood by them.

Well, misunderstanding is just misunderstanding.

Hua Xiong accepted the admiration of his subordinates frankly.

After seeing movable type printing, Hua Xiong led everyone back to the command post.

"Now that movable type is available, it is very simple to make books.

I plan to print more of these three enlightenment books and distribute them to the state capitals under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, so that more young children can read and write. "

Hua Xiong laughed.

"The lord's benevolence is unparalleled, and the subordinates admire him!"

Guo Jia was in awe.

Hua Xiong laughed,

"You guys come today. Apart from these few books, I have another proposal."

"Also ask the lord to make it clear."

Xun Yu cupped his hands and said curiously.

"I'm going to start a newspaper."

newspaper?

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, they had never heard of this word.

"The function of a newspaper office is to distribute newspapers."

Hua Xiong explained,

"You can understand newspapers as mansion newspapers, but unlike mansion newspapers, newspapers are distributed to the people of the world."

Now everyone's eyes became even more puzzled.

"My lord, the residence report is delivered to the court ministers, and it records His Majesty's will and major events in the world.

If a newspaper is distributed to the people of the world, what content should it publish? "

Xun Yu asked blankly.

"I plan to start from four aspects, court policy, current affairs news, life chores and popular four aspects."

"Imperial policies, such as the imperial court now encourages business, but there are still many people who don't know about it, which makes me very sad."

Hua Xiong sighed and continued,

"And once there is a newspaper, if there are any new policies issued by the imperial court, the common people will be able to know in time."

Hua Xiong's words made everyone nod their heads.

"My lord is right.

In many cases, it's not that the people don't support the policies of the imperial court, but that they don't know it at all. "

Guo Jia agreed.

"Current affairs news is to inform the people of major events in the world in a timely manner.

In this way, if something happens, people will not be panicked. "

"Life chores, just talk about some popular science knowledge such as washing hands in oil pans."

Xun Yu's eyes lit up, and he praised,

"That's good. When the Yellow Turban rebelled, Zhang Jiao relied on acrobatics to fool the common people.

If newspapers can be used to educate the people.

In the future, there is no need to be afraid that sects like Taipingdao will incite the people. "

Zhou Cang interrupted and asked,

"My lord, then my lord, what does the last common item mean?"

"You still don't understand that," Hua Xiong rolled his eyes at him, "Of course it's used to publish stories and enrich the lives of the common people."

Unless you live in a peaceful year like Jingzhizhi and Zhenguanzhizhi,

Otherwise, the life of the ancient people would have been relatively poor.

The reasons for this are, one is that the productive forces are underdeveloped, and the other is that people are generally ignorant.

To make China prosperous and strong, we must first open up the wisdom of the people.

And newspapers are the most convenient and quickest way.

In addition, the most important role of newspapers is to guide the thoughts of the people!

Why did Taipingdao cause such an uproar, leading to the Yellow Turban Uprising and shaking the rule of the Han Dynasty?

Simply because it incites the masses.

And with newspapers, you don't have to worry about similar things in the future.

"Listen to me so much, what's your opinion?"

Hua Xiong asked with a smile.

"The newspaper has so many advantages, the subordinates naturally agree with the lord's approach!"

Xun Yu was the first to express his opinion.

"I agree!"

"I agree!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

After some deliberation, Hua Xiong decided to let Mi Heng, who is quite entertaining and likes to criticize current affairs, be in charge of the newspaper.

Chapter 2 Enlightenment Readings

"My lord, is this some kind of jade?"

Guo Jia thought for a while and asked.

"No."

Hua Xiong shook his head with a smile.

Zhou Cang took a closer look.

When he smelled the fragrance of roses, he burst out laughing,

"This must be something delicious!"

He reached out and grabbed the soap, ready to stuff it into his mouth.

Hua Xiong hurriedly stopped him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry,

"It's not something to eat.

The white one next to it is called soap, which is used to clean body dirt.

The yellow one is called soap, which can be used to wash clothes. "

Soap?

Soap?

Everyone looked blank, but they had never heard of these two things.

"Is this thing better than saponins?"

Zhou Cang asked suspiciously.

"Sapia japonicus can't even compare to one-tenth of its efficacy."

Hua Xiong laughed.

Seeing their disbelief still on their faces, Hua Xiong beckoned Huzi behind him to stand up.

Hu Zi followed Hua Xiong's instructions and wiped his hands on the ground.

After it was covered with dust, Huzi showed it to everyone.

Hua Xiong ordered someone to bring a basin of clean water.

Huzi rubbed the soap with both hands, and then put it in clean water.

Then he raised his hand.

I saw that the hands that were originally full of dust were clean now, without a speck of dust!

"I'll go, this thing has such a strong decontamination ability?"

"real or fake?"

Everyone couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

Hua Xiong laughed and said,

"Soap not only has strong decontamination ability, but also has its own fragrance.

If used for a long time, it also has a whitening effect. "

Upon hearing this, the female family members present couldn't sit still.

They crowded forward one after another, carefully observing the soap.

Isn't it, this soap is clean and white, with a refreshing rose fragrance.

Looking at Huzi, his rough hands are still a little smooth after being washed with soap!

The female relatives suddenly became crazy, they turned around and began to look for their husbands.

"Husband, people want this thing!"

"People also want it!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhou Cang quickly put the soap and soap into the box, and hugged it into his arms like a baby.

He looked at the crowd vigilantly, for fear that someone would come out to snatch him.
