A group of guards came out of Yichun Palace in five routes, and headed towards the main roads of various city gates in Xianyang.

After arriving at a crowded place, they brushed the wall a few times with boiled rice milk and pasted a notice on it.

"My lord, what is this thing?"

"But the imperial list?"

"It must be the imperial list, even the silk is used."

"Why don't I look like silk cloth?"

The people gathered around one after another, not caring about the words on the notice, but wondering if they could secretly take off the 'silk silk' and go home to cut clothes.

"Get out of the way, let me see."

A man dressed as a scholar squeezed into the crowd, and after a glance, he was disappointed.

"Sir, what does it say?"

"Tell us about it."

"Yeah, tell everyone."

After finally meeting a literate person, the common people surrounded him in a hurry.

"His Royal Highness is going to mine stone nirvana in Baligou on the outskirts of the city, and gather the leisure labor in the city."

"Each person who goes there will have two meals a day, and they can go to the mill outside the city to exchange for flour in the future."

"It also said that the excavated stones can be burned for warmth, and after being mined, they will be distributed to poor people for winter use."

"Hey... His Royal Highness doesn't care about military affairs, so what are you doing with these trivial things?"

"I wait for Kong to have a whole body of knowledge, but I have no way to serve the country."

The scholar let out a sigh of sorrow.

"Two meals a day, can you go to the mill to exchange for flour?"

"Is there such a good thing?"

"Everyone, don't go, be careful that once you go, you won't be able to come back."

"His Royal Highness is not that kind of person."

"Heh, the imperial court enlists civilian husbands every year, don't you guys know how powerful they are?"

Some people are eager, while others sternly resist.

In the era of underdeveloped productivity, eating has always been a big problem.

In winter, everything withers, and the people stay at home and can only survive by consuming the materials they usually accumulate.

If there is a place that can manage two meals a day, it will greatly solve the burden on the family.

There are many children in poverty-stricken areas in later generations. Parents send their children to school just to enjoy the lunch provided by compulsory education every day at noon.

Going to school to eat, not to starve to death, that's all.

"His Royal Highness is in charge of the meal?"

"Do you still want to give me Shi Nirvana to burn the fire for the winter?"

"There are such good things!"

"I'm going!"

In the crowd, a disheveled 'beggar' shouted happily.

"Who can help me find out where His Royal Highness is?"

"I want to sign up!"

Li Yi shouted loudly.

The crowd had smelled a stench just now, but now they saw that he was covered in dirt and the stench was unpleasant, but they didn't know it, and he was pushing into the crowd, so they couldn't help avoiding him.

"The crown prince is in Yichun Palace, you just have to sign up and find it yourself."

"Yeah, anyway, you have been reduced to a beggar, no matter how bad you are, you won't be so bad."

"Stinky beggar, don't stain our new clothes."

"Leave far away!"

Li Yi heard the shouting and cursing from the people around him, and almost cried out of grievance.

Anyway, I am also a good citizen with a clean family background, and I have a little money.

If it wasn't for the owner's promise to give me an official status, why bother to be ridiculed by you?

"Into your mother-in-law!"

"What about beggars?"

"Maybe I can be an official someday!"

"I'll report to the Prince's Mansion right now, and I'll watch you all!"

Li Yi yelled and cursed, turned around and ran towards Yichun Palace.

"I'm afraid it's unclear."

"No wonder you become a beggar. Most likely you have a brain disease."

"Let's go and see together, to see if the beggar Prince's mansion accepts it."

"Dare to scold me, I can't run away from you!"

The crowd was surging and quickly gathered in the direction of the prince's mansion.

Chapter 122 So embarrassingly digging out three rooms and one living room

Chen Qing and Fu Su were sitting by the stove, sipping tea and talking leisurely.

"After the paper is made, the next step is to engage in movable type printing."

"If there is any major event in the court, it should be widely announced, instead of allowing the people to speculate or even slander."

"Let them know why this is the case and what the benefits are."

"Writing by hand alone is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is prone to errors and omissions."

In order to show his sincerity, Fusu wrote several notices with his own handwriting. At this time, he couldn't help moving his sore wrist.

"Typography?"

Hearing this strange name, he turned his head curiously.

"Just like our usual seals, but only one character is engraved on each."

"As long as all the fonts are made, they can be arranged in order to form different sentences."

Chen Qing picked up the tray on the table.

"All the seals are of the same height, and then they are arranged here, fixed, and painted with a layer of ink."

"Press the paper to the top, and the characters on the engraving block will be printed on the paper."

"One print is one sheet, and it is easy to print tens of thousands of copies a day."

Chen Qing demonstrated it with empty hands.

"This method is wonderful!"

"Why didn't I think of it!"

Fusu stood up excitedly.

"There was no paper before, of course you wouldn't think of it."

"The development of everything has its objective laws in it."

"I'm just picking up the wisdom of the descendants."

Chen Qing said something modestly, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a guard escorting a ragged beggar in, and said with a smile, "Your Highness, someone is here."

"Li Yi."

"Master."

"What's wrong with your head? Who dares to hit someone from my Shaofu Chen!"

Chen Qing couldn't help glaring when he saw the other party covering his head and grinning.

"Boss, it's okay."

Li Yi has a hard time.

Just because he scolded, "Your mother-in-law", the man hid in the crowd and smashed his head with a stone.

It just so happened that he was on another mission, and he was afraid of delaying the big business of the boss, so he didn't dare to turn around and find someone to argue with.

Chen Qing saw the other party's dirty appearance, so he made a guess.

"You have suffered, and I will register and register you later, and implement the official status."

"Thank you for your kindness."

As soon as Li Yi heard this, his head didn't hurt anymore, and he didn't feel wronged anymore, and his whole body was full of energy.

At this time, the rest of the guys also came back one after another.

"How are things going?"

"Are there many people following to see the excitement?"

Chen Qing asked solemnly.

"many!"

"The road outside the door is almost blocked."

Everyone nodded in unison.

"it is good!"

Chen Qing said excitedly: "Everyone goes to collect a hundred catties of grain and carry it back to his home. Remember not to be found out."

"Also, tell everyone when you go out that only the top 50 people have so many food collars."

"The next 200 people only have [-] catties of food per person."

"The top [-] people only have two catties of food per person."

"For the rest, follow what I taught you earlier."

Li Yi and the others nodded sharply, with joy in their eyes: "We know."

Chen Qing beckoned: "Your Highness, let me show you what is herd mentality."

Fu Su couldn't laugh or cry.

He knew that such a method would work, but he always felt that it was not fair enough to fool the people like this.

The two went out together, hiding in the dark and staring at the gate.

After a while, Li Yi and others walked out beaming with big bags on their shoulders.

"and many more."

Chen Qing suddenly stopped them.

"Boss, what else is there?"

"Almost something."

Chen Qing quickly broke a branch, and poked a few times on Li Yi's sack, making a small hole.

The golden millet popped out, and Li Yi was so frightened that he quickly reached out to cover it.

"Okay, that's it."

Chen Qing clapped his hands: "Go."

Li Yi and the others didn't know why, and after brewing their emotions for a while, they walked out with a beaming smile on their faces.
