The best male concubine who traveled through time

Although Lord Bai has thousands of people who are unwilling, but the imperial decree has come down, and if you don't want to, you have to bite the bullet!

It's just that when he saw the paper, all his complaints were thrown out of the sky.

what is this?

A thin piece of paper can actually record the volume of a roll of bamboo slips. If all the historical records of Han Academy are recorded on paper, there will definitely be a lot of space to record more historical records.

Although Han College is big, it looks a bit small in front of the bamboo slips that are as high as a mountain. Especially after the earthquake some time ago, I don't know where to put the recorded bamboo slips?

"Come, come, Lao Bai, let me show you something good."

Master Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry took out the new book that he ordered people to work overtime to sew, and showed off, "This thing is really good."

"What is this?" Master Bai took the book and flipped through it hastily.

A lot of content has been transcribed in this book, Master Bai looked at the content in the book, his eyes lit up, "What is this? Why can such a long article be recorded?"

"This is a book. In the future, you don't have to worry about dividing an article into several bamboo slips. What's more, the production cost of this book is much lower than that of the bamboo slips. By then, even my students from the Holy Dynasty will be able to afford the book. worthy of books."

Master Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry was emotional when he talked about this matter.

Think back then, their family used all their strength to support him as a student!

Especially the high-priced bamboo slips have baffled many students!

Master Bai looked at the book in his hand, and liked it more and more. In the end, shamelessly, he took away the book that Mr. Gongbu Shangshu copied many pages.

Just thinking of copying the historical records as high as a mountain, I suddenly felt that the book in my hand was not good.

Not fragrant, not fragrant, but he dared not disobey the imperial decree, so he had to curse Ye Yang, who invented paper.

"Brother Lu, can this book be determined according to its size?"

Master Bai was holding a small book in his hand, and some felt that the book was too small and not grand enough.

"Of course you can! I heard from Mr. Ye Concubine that it can be made bigger, so that it is easier to read when recording documents."

"This book is good, but I don't like it so much when I think of copying the mountains of historical records."

There are so many historical records, and dozens of them are required to copy them, and I am afraid that they will not be copied until this time next year.

"The emperor is not in a hurry to let you finish copying the historical records, so take your time!"

"Ugh…"

Lord Bai sighed softly, and said, "Brother Lu, when the time comes, you are making a larger book and sending it over. Then I will be able to estimate how many books will be needed."

"That's no problem, I'll ask the people in the paper making room to send over some books of different sizes later." Master Lu agreed with all his heart.

After finishing their business, the two chatted about many other topics, and finally Master Bai left.

But when Mr. Bai just walked out of the gate of the Ministry of Industry, Ye Yang, who was wearing a fine attire, walked in leisurely from outside.

"Meet Mr. Concubine Ye!"

Although Master Bai was dissatisfied with Ye Yang, he still bowed politely.

Ye Yang looked at Master Bai in official uniform, but Naihe didn't have any impression of him, so he could only smile and nod his head as a greeting.

Upon seeing this, Mr. Lu, who sent Mr. Bai off, quickly introduced him enthusiastically, "Master Ye Concubine, this is Mr. Lu, the historian of Han Academy."

"Oh, Mr. Lu, you came just in time. I have something good to introduce to you."

Lord Bai thought that the good thing Ye Yang was talking about was a book, so he didn't show much joy. He kept a polite smile and replied: "Mr. Ye Concubine, the official has already read the book."

"It's not a book, it's movable type printing. With movable type printing, it will be much easier for you Han Academy to transcribe historical records."

Ye Yangzhi knew from yesterday that he was going to transcribe all the historical records into a book, so he hurriedly asked Xiao Douding to go to the carving workshop of the Ministry of Industry for them to carve reverse characters.

After such a long time, the people in the carving room should have carved many commonly used reverse characters!

When Master Lu heard that it was a new term, he became energetic in an instant, and asked excitedly: "Mr. Ye Concubine, movable type... what is it, what is it?"

"It's movable type printing. You'll know it when you read it."

Ye Yang turned around and walked towards the carving workshop.

"Go, Lord Bai, go and have a look!"

Master Lu looked excited, and hurriedly followed behind Ye Yang.

Master Bai thought that the book hadn't come out yet, and he had nothing to do when he went back, so he followed the two to the carving workshop.

In the sculpting workshop, all the master sculptors were busy carving reverse characters, immersed in the world of sculpting, they didn't notice the arrival of Ye Yang and the others.

"Sir, you are here."

When Xiao Douding saw Ye Yang coming, he ran over quickly, handed the carved wooden block to Ye Yang, and asked for credit: "Master, do you think it looks like this?"

Ye Yang took the small wooden block, looked at the inverted characters on it, and nodded, "Yes, that's it."

Mr. Lu at the side took a closer look at the small piece of wood in Ye Yang's hand, and found that it was a small cuboid piece of wood with words engraved on one end, similar to a common seal. A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, "Mr. Ye Concubine, Isn't this a very common seal?"

Master Bai looked at the seal with disappointment on his face. He thought Ye Yang had invented something useful to their Han Academy, but it turned out that he was overthinking.

"Don't underestimate this seal, if they are combined, it will be an incredible moveable type printing technique."

Ye Yang is still very confident, after all movable type printing is one of the four great inventions of his time.

"Hehe..." Lord Lu smiled awkwardly.

If Master Bai at the side hadn't been hindered by Ye Yang's identity, he might have left in a huff. He felt that he was not here to see something new, but to waste time. Ye Yang naturally noticed the expressions of the two people beside him. Changes, but he didn't explain too much, and directly reported the results.

He told Xiao Douding: "Little Douding, prepare paper and ink, today I will show you what is movable type printing."

"Here!"

Xiao Douding turned and left the carving workshop, and went to the paper making room.

Waiting for the space between the paper and the ink, Ye Yang found the wooden grid made by the master sculptors, and then put the small wooden blocks of the same size that had been carved with inverted characters into the wooden grid one by one.

Master Bai looked at Ye Yang busy with his work, originally he looked disdainful, but when he saw the small wooden blocks lined up tightly, he suddenly reacted with a look of disbelief.

He has been dealing with words all the year round, so he can see what Ye Yang wants to do at a glance, it's just such a simple truth, he didn't think of it before.

As expected of Mr. Ye Concubine, she has a quick mind, and she can get amazing results with just a casual change of thinking.

At this moment, Master Bai admired Ye Yang from the bottom of his heart.

Master Lu also came to his senses, and couldn't help but praise, "Mr. Concubine Ye, you are too smart, such a simple truth, why didn't you think of it before you stepped down?"

"It can't be blamed that you didn't think of it, it's because you haven't been in contact with it, so you didn't think about it."

Ye Yang saw Xiao Douding bring paper and ink, he took the paper and ink, carefully painted every small piece of wood in the grid with ink, then put the paper on it, took a round wooden stick and rolled it gently a few times.

When the time was almost up, he picked up the paper, and immediately, the neat and decent characters appeared on the paper.

Because the engraving time was too short, the engraving masters only carved common characters, so the characters on the paper were not smooth, but this did not affect the excitement of Lord Bai and Lord Lu.

"It's beautiful, it's much better than handwritten words." Master Bai was delighted, he didn't expect that movable type printing is so powerful, it can fill a whole sheet of paper in just a short time.

"That's right, whether it's the font, size or order, it's better than manual copying. More importantly, there will be no typos." Master Lu also looked satisfied, and looked at Ye Yang even more fervently.

The engraving masters around originally complained that Ye Yangjing was looking for trouble for them, why did they carve so many "small seals" if they had nothing to do?But now after seeing movable type printing, they all admire Ye Yang.

Master Bai thought that using movable type printing to record historical records would definitely get twice the result with half the effort. He clasped his fists and said with admiration: "Mr. If you encounter any trouble, just order, as long as you don't betray the Holy Majesty, even if you go through fire and water, you will not hesitate to go through fire and water."

"It's serious, this is just a trivial matter, nothing to worry about."

Ye Yang waved his hand, with a look of indifference.

After all, he plagiarized Bi Sheng for movable type printing, so he really didn't dare to take the credit from others.

Everyone present was shocked by Ye Yang's words. Such a powerful movable type printing technique is actually just a trivial matter in Ye Yang's eyes. What kind of fairy is this Ye Yang?

Ye Yang didn't have time to think about the thoughts in everyone's hearts. He called dozens of craftsmen in the afternoon and formed a temporary team to start making soap.

Thinking of those officials who dared to impeach him, Ye Yang showed a malicious smile on his face.

On the second day, Lanyuexuan launched a new product, no matter how far away, you can smell the scent of soap.

The rich and powerful people in the holy city learned that this soap was used for bathing, and they all bought a piece of expensive soap with the mentality of trying it out.

After they used the soap, they all looked narcissistic when they smelled the fragrance from their bodies.

For a while, soap became a luxury in the Holy City. Even if a piece of soap cost 300 taels of silver, it still couldn't stop people's desire to buy it.

Especially when someone spreads that making soap is troublesome, it takes a month to make good soap, and this batch of soap is only a few hundred yuan, and it will take another month to sell out, many smart people flock to Lanyuexuan to buy soap .

As for the rumored hundreds of pieces of soap, it is impossible, because Ye Yang sold tens of thousands of pieces of soap in just three days.

Looking at the amount of more than 300 million gold in the ledger, Ye Yang showed a piercing smile, "Hey, I want you to experience what it means to be sinister."

Jun Yi on the side was still very happy looking at the amount on the ledger. In just a few days, the national treasury was filled so much, and he couldn't help but praise himself for his insight.

"Concubine Ye, are you really going to be out of stock?" Jun Yi knew that the person who was rumored to be out of stock was sent by Ye Yang, so he asked.

In fact, he is very reluctant to sell out of stock now. After all, the business is so good that he is reluctant to sell out of stock.
