Qin Shi Big Boss

Chapter 126
Ying Zheng smiled, threw a book to Lu Buwei, and said, "How about you take a look first?"

Lu Buwei was stunned for a moment, looking at the thick agricultural code, he became mentally active. He didn't expect Tianshe's book to be compiled so quickly, it turned out to be such a heavy book, and only in Qin State could it be roughly completed.

Tian She did not compile a book for a long time, because the knowledge of agriculture was too complicated and heavy, which could not be borne by bamboo slips.Even though there are many children in the farm and the economic strength is good, there is no way to write it.

Only on the prince's side can it be roughly written.

The meaning of the prince is that Lu Buwei immediately woke up and seemed to understand something.

Ying Zheng chuckled, thinking that Lu Buwei is really smart, and he is a useful talent who can turn around so quickly.In the past, the space was a little cramped, but now it has changed a lot, and it is far from possible to be reused.

"This is the agricultural book, which records in detail the time of sowing the crops, the method of sowing, and the degree of weather changes." Ying Zheng took out another agricultural book, flipped through it, and introduced it.

Lu Buwei's eyes stuttered. He didn't expect that Ying Zheng's memory was so sharp. Such a thick agricultural code was actually remembered in its entirety. Even if it was memorized backwards, it didn't seem to be a problem.

But he soon realized that the description inside was extremely detailed, and almost every detail was handled very well, and he felt that he had gained a lot in many places.

Some patterns are painted on it, some sizes are marked, and some precautions.

These are things that bamboo slips cannot do.

Cultivation, seedling raising, watering, spreading, etc., so many things are all concentrated in one book, which is really alarmist.

"Such a classic work, even after hundreds or even thousands of years, has great reference value. And the person who created this book is naturally famous in history." Lu Buwei said tremblingly.

He thought of the "Lu's Age" that he was about to edit, and his physiology became more lively, as if he was one step closer to his goal.

Thinking of this, Lu Buwei jumped up even more.

"The entire agricultural code has 300 million characters." Ying Zheng said truthfully.

"300 million characters!" Lu Buwei was taken aback. He almost lost his grip on the "Nongdian" in his hand. He had guessed that the "Nongdian" had a lot of words, but he didn't expect it to be so many.

Not to mention bamboo slips, even a bamboo mountain is not equipped to write so many characters.

No wonder it can be roughly recorded in such detail, this rice paper is really a great magical function, and the brush is even more light.

If we rely on bamboo slips and bamboo knives to carve them one by one, it may take decades or even several generations to complete.

But now the Zhu family has recorded all the knowledge of agriculture in a few months, and rectified a system belonging to the farmhouse, obviously with the help of brushes.

Lu Buwei has a batch of brushes in his hand, and after practicing for a few weeks, he can write very fluently, and can write more than 1 characters in a few days.

300 million is not a small amount, and everything that needs to be recorded is basically included in it.

"These are all agricultural codes." Ying Zheng took out another large amount of "Agricultural Code" and put them on the desk, which was obviously prepared in advance.

Lu Buwei gasped, no matter how fast the writing speed was, how could there be as many as dozens of books.

As soon as he opened the book, he revoked the original date, because he found that the characters in the book were different from those in Ying Zheng's hand, and the font was square and upright, so he whispered: "Could it be that these are all printed?"

"That's right, I invented a movable type printing method that can reproduce a large number of books. It only takes a few days, and hundreds of copies are on the market." Ying Zheng said lightly.

Lu Buwei was completely shocked. This printing technique is so unique that it can reproduce books in batches.

So wouldn't the books in the Qin State become very cheap, even ordinary people can roughly use the books.

No wonder Yingzheng is so confident. It is because of this reason that he can not only write books, but also spread theories of a hundred schools of thought widely.

There may be disputes among various schools of thought, but this is undoubtedly their common hope, so that their theories can be completely spread everywhere.

If Lu Buwei was a member of a hundred schools of thought, after knowing this information, he would definitely come to Qin State impatiently, even if he only stayed for a while, it would be a good choice.

Lu Buwei knows this very well. He has always wanted to write "Lu's Spring and Autumn".

But there are not many diners under him, and his own knowledge is limited, so he can't complete the basics.

Although there are many difficulties, he has both sides, and he wants to write books.

Those people from hundreds of schools must have the same years of writing books, and their hopes must be twice as fierce as Lu Buwei's.

"There are hundreds of schools of thought, each with their own theories. I want whoever can write a book and talk about it, and whoever can write a book and talk about it." Ying Zheng has a big style in every gesture.

Lu Buwei swallowed his saliva, and his heart was filled with joy. Given his relationship with Ying Zheng, it is unlikely that as long as he finds someone, he will be able to write it roughly.

So many book excavations have completely broken the monopoly of the gentry, making knowledge even more worthless.

Probably, this is one of the important reasons why Ying Zheng promotes the poor family.

Although the children of poor families are extremely poor, those who really want to know are mostly determined people. If they have enough resources, they will definitely be able to do very well, even much better than the gentry.

Once this power is formed, it must be loyal to Yingzheng and the royal family.

As for those various schools of thought, they kept waving their flags and clamoring that Qin State was a Qin of tigers and wolves. If they knew about this, they would come to Yingzheng one by one and beg Yingzheng to write books for them. opportunity to speak.

"It's no wonder the prince said that the whole country's study salary can be used by itself. Once this is done, not to mention all the scholars in the country, even those who have not started studying, can come to Qin to study." Lu Buwei said tremblingly.

Only now did he understand how ridiculous and ignorant his suspicions were. In front of Ying Zheng's scheme, what do those schools of thought count for?

Is there anything in the world that can possibly stump Ying Zheng?
"I am not afraid of corruption, because corruption is the choice of the weak, and I will never have this choice." Ying Zheng said loudly.

Infected by the emperor's technique of enshrining the gods, Lu Buwei admitted it very much. People in the world may be rotten, but everything in Yingzheng will not be rotten.

I am afraid that the calculations of those scholars will be shattered, and the imperial examination system will be a great success.

Immediately, Yingzheng asked Lu Buwei to print the "Agricultural Code" in large quantities, and sold them to all parts of the six countries at a very low cost, and it was enough to earn old capital.

Lu Buwei immediately accepted the order, and became even more generous, last time because of Zhang Yi's achievement, he always felt that there was something lacking in his heart, but this time he made up his mind to do it well, and not let the prince down.

As soon as he returned to the prime minister's mansion, he arranged manpower and gathered a group of craftsmen to learn movable type printing, and then printed it in large quantities.

Immediately, he approached the sellers of dried sweet potatoes and asked them to sell the "Agricultural Code" to the six countries. Soon, there were sales outlets for the "Agricultural Code" in all towns, large and small, and it could be said that everyone had a copy of the "Agricultural Code".

The common people of the six countries in Shandong are very interested in knowing the "Agricultural Code", and the cost is cheap.

"You have heard about the Agricultural Code. It was written by the younger generation of the farmer. You can buy a copy for only a few hundred pennies. It contains details about planting crops, which is of great benefit to us."

"The records in this agricultural book are really too detailed. I have learned a lot about the varieties of wheat we grow here and the methods of cultivation. The descendants of the farmers are really sharp, and they should be the first among all schools of thought."

"I used to think that the farmhouse was not very good, but after this time, the farmhouse completely surprised us. It is really huge!"

The high-level leaders of various countries were also extremely touched. They never expected that Qin State could roughly develop such a sharp thing, so that such a heavy book could be sold at such a low price.

Thinking of this, they all became excited, and they understood the power of Qin.

After Lu Buwei knew the results of the agricultural code, he stroked his beard and said: "It really is, and it has caused a great stir in the six countries of Shandong. I don't know when my book will be completed. I really look forward to it!"

He knew in his heart that as long as he followed Yingzheng and was loyal to Yingzheng, that day would come soon, and he just had to wait patiently.

The people in the farm house were naturally very generous when they heard the news. Their hard work over the past few months has finally paid off.

"It's great, the agricultural code is available in the seven countries, and all the common people can roughly see our books. This is a dream of our farm for many years, and I didn't expect it to be realized in our generation."

"Following the crown prince's victory, that is our very precise approach. Whoever dares to say that the Qin State is a tyrant, is clearly a country of etiquette. Now, whoever dares to say that the Qin State is a tyrant, will definitely give him a few slaps .”

"If Shennong knew what we were doing, he would definitely reward us. At first, when each side of the world arrived in Qin, I was still a little bit disapproving. Looking at it today, the initial choice was right."

Situ Wanli was very happy, and brought the good news to find Zhu's family who was sleeping.

For more than three months, the Zhu family worked hard day and night to compile the agricultural code, and only had some time to sleep during this time.

"Zhu family, stop sleeping. What's the point of sleeping?" Situ Wanli grabbed the Zhu family's collar and shook it a few times, waking up the Zhu family.

"What's the matter? Could it be that someone is plotting against us." The Zhu family trembled and looked around very vigilantly, for fear that someone would attack the Tianshe headquarters.

Otherwise, how could Situ Wanli be so generous.

"It's okay, really, even when you're sleeping, you still don't forget about the farmhouse." Situ Wanli said unhappily, but he admired the Zhu family very much. The development of farmhouses has made great contributions.

Thousands of farm children are managed by the Zhu family in a clear order, which is many times better than Tian Guang.

"What are you going to do?" The Zhu family asked in surprise, he had never seen Situ Wanli so excited, "Could it be that you took another concubine?"

"Bah, bah, bah! What nonsense are you talking about? It's definitely not good for my mother-in-law to hear it. Zhu family, you and I are brothers, we are brothers, so don't worry about me." Situ Wanli said angrily, is he such a person?
But the Zhu family looked at his eyes, obviously saying that this is the kind of person he is.

"Tell me, what is it?" The Zhu family stopped teasing Situ Wanli.

"Do you remember the agricultural code? Now it has been distributed all over the country. The six capitals of Shandong have a large circulation and received very good results." When Situ Wanli mentioned this, he was singing and dancing, and he was very happy.

"Really?" The Zhu family was very generous and held onto Situ Wanli tightly.

"It's true, people from all over the world now have very good comments on our farm, and its influence has surpassed hundreds of schools of thought, and it is at the front line." Situ Wanli said generously, the fantasy of the farm for many years, just like that finished.

"That's great!" The Zhu family said generously.

"Not only that, many people from all over the world are expected to come to our farm. They think that the farm is a good school, and they all want to come and learn." Situ Wanli said happily.

"Quick, quick, go and recruit them all here." The Zhu family said generously.

"While you were sleeping, I had already completed everything. First, I will set up several branches in various places in the six countries. After a period of gradual establishment, I will bring Qin State to continue the establishment." Situ Wanli said with a smile.

"That's good. The Zhu family is as happy as a child.

"Now that we have achieved such a great achievement in Qin, the six sages of Tianshe will definitely be very happy when they know about it." Situ Wanli said. At first, it was thanks to the six sages of Tianshe that Tianshe was spared a fierce fight.

Otherwise, confronting Ying Zheng is no different from courting death.Yingzheng not only holds the military power, but also has the support of the Yin Yang Family and Kan Tiao. Tian Guang thought it was a secret at the time, but in fact he had nowhere to go.

"Tian Guang, Tian Guang, I used to respect him quite a lot, but it's a pity that he made mistakes again and again, and I have nothing to do. If he knew that we could achieve such a great achievement, he would definitely agree to come in the farmhouse." The Zhu family said with some regret .

"That's not necessarily true. Tian Guang is too stubborn. I don't think he will regret it." Situ Wanli shook his head and said, but he thought of Ying Zheng, "The crown prince is really a god-man on his part, and he was able to roughly do this. , It is rumored that he also gave many poor children the opportunity to learn, it is really a great merit."

"The prince is indeed sharp. He is the person I admire the most in my life." Zhu Jia said truthfully, as the hero of Tianshe, there are very few people who can roughly admit it, and even fewer people admire it.

It takes all the strength to get the Zhu family's evaluation.

"Wouldn't these other schools all follow into Qin? They ignored Qin at first, but now they all come to Qin." Situ Wanli said with a smile.

"That's natural." The Zhu family said happily.

After all the scholars knew about Tianshe, they all became generous. Originally, Tianshe was at the same level as them, but now it exceeded many times.

For a time, their feelings were very complicated, some were jealousy, some were melancholy, and some were regretful.

"Qin not only has cheap rice paper and brushes, but also has movable type printing, which played an extremely important role in the popularization of the school's views. I want to suggest to the giants to change the school's headquarters to Xianyang."

"Tian She has such a big influence. He is almost the same as us. No, we have to go to Qin, otherwise we will have no chance."

"It's a pity! If we were the same as Tian She and defected to Yingzheng of the Qin State, the one with great influence now would probably be our Gongsun family instead of Tian She. It's really a pity."

In the middle of a mountain range is full of vitality and flocks of birds.

A huge bird came out of nowhere and landed on the ground. After a closer look, I realized that there were five or six people sitting on it.The big bird is not a real creature, but is assembled from a large number of small wooden blocks, but it is just like the real big bird in the present.

"Young man, it has been spread among the six capitals of Shandong that Qin State can supply cheap brushes and rice paper, and sponsor the scholars who entered Qin to set up books. We Mohists should not miss such a great opportunity." Said the Mohist junior in plain clothes .

When the middle-aged man heard this, he nodded slightly, but his eyes were a little generous, and he murmured to himself: "Qin Guo has done a great merit this time, looking back at the previous images, the people in the farmhouse are now happy and overwhelmed! "

"Young Master, don't worry about it anymore. People from other schools are rushing to Qin, obviously they are all going for the rice paper and brush. If we go late, maybe there will be no more." Mohist junior persuaded.

"Let's go! Tell the disciples under the door that you are going to go to Qin tonight, so you must hurry up." The Mohist giant said decisively.

"Tonight〃?" The Mohist junior was taken aback. It was dusk now. He wanted to urge Juzi to prevent the Confucianists from taking the lead, but he didn't expect Juzi to be so decisive.

"Hurry up and get ready." The giant said displeased.

The younger Mozi hurriedly informed the others, saying that he was going to set off tonight.Everyone has long been eager to go to Qin, and now they don't complain because of time constraints, but they are all looking forward to it.

After Xunzi knew this, he fell into deep thought and sat in the pavilion.

"Sir, the farm code you want is here. I waited in a long line to get it. The price of this farm code is so low that even ordinary people can afford it. There are too many people." Han Fei continued to be depressed.

Xunzi did not speak, touched the agricultural code, flipped through it page by page, and then said in a low voice: "Although this agricultural code is very long, it introduces all kinds of things, but none of them is long-winded. Both are necessary. If one piece is removed, the contents behind will reveal problems."

"Not only that, but the introduction is very detailed. There are detailed records of the sowing, watering, harvesting, etc. of the crops. It is a good book. If we can publish such a book, it will be really good." Han Fei took out another agricultural book and started to read it by himself.

"I have to say that this Codex is really tempting. The various schools in the Seven Kingdoms continue to have disputes and debates, but they all have one thing in common, that is, they all want to spread their theories widely and serve more people. Take over." Xunzi said, stroking his white beard.

"In the past, people said that the people of Qin were just a group of barbarians, the Qin of tigers and wolves. Now that Tianshe's theory has been widely disseminated, no one will say such things again." Han Fei said.

"By the way, where's Li Si? Didn't he go shopping with you?" Xunzi frowned. He chatted with Han Fei for a long time, but he didn't see Li Si.

Han Fei's expression changed drastically. He immediately remembered that he was in line with Li Si. Later, he couldn't wait any longer, so he asked Li Si to line up first, and he took a break first.Li Si didn't say much, and agreed with Han Fei.

However, Han Fei met a few good friends on the way, and they were already ahead of the queue, so he asked them to buy a few more copies when they bought them.

Right now, Li Si is probably still in line.

Sure enough, Li Si walked in with a pile of books, and said happily, "Han Fei, why did you come back so early? You agreed to come to me later, where did you get the agricultural code in your hand? "

Xunzi had been the teacher of these two for so many years, and he immediately realized that Han Fei had just tricked Li Si.

Li Si was not annoyed, he put the book aside, panted heavily, read it roughly, and said: "This agricultural code is really amazing, with a huge content, just like the stars in the sky, innumerable, but extremely useful .After reading the previous part, I have a new experience."

"The point is that the man named Ying Zheng, the cost of rice paper and brush is so high, but he is happy to provide it to others for free. It's really a bit modern, and people can't help but be suspicious." Xunzi looked at the picture in the book.

"There's something weird about it. If it's really the same price as other countries in Shandong, even if Qin is sold out of business, there's no way to make so much rice paper." Han Fei felt there was something weird about it.

"Han Fei is right. The cost of rice paper and brush is so high that it is not worth it even for the sake of convincing all schools of thought. Unless..." Li Si came to his senses.

"Unless the price of these rice paper and brush pens is already very low, it's just that Ying Zheng deliberately set the price so high when they sold it to other countries," Han Fei said hurriedly.

"That's right, it's very likely that's the case. The rice paper and brushes that are worthless, but because he is the only one who can make them, he spends them out of thin air." Li Si and Han Fei's years coincided.

Xunzi frowned slightly and said displeasedly: "Ying Zheng is really unkind in doing this. He deliberately raises this fee, which is obviously to harm the people of all countries."

"He probably wanted to talk about uniting all schools of thought! But doing so really moved people, and all the schools were moved. Only Qin State can provide rice paper and brushes, so all schools of thought can only go to Qin State " Li Si laughed.

"Qin State's purpose is very obvious. One is to let us all take part in the imperial examination, so as to further become the strength of Qin State. The other is to let the six capitals accept the words of Qin State. You can see in this book, It's all written by Qin," Han Fei said.

"Qin's plan is good," Li Si said.

"The state of Qin has nothing to say with the other schools of thought. One is willing to fight, and the other is willing to suffer." Han Fei said.

"Junior brother, do you want to take part in the imperial examination? I heard that you can become an official of the Qin State after passing through, and the position is not low, and the salary is good. More importantly, you can stand out among the hundreds of scholars and surpass others. .” Li Si put the agricultural code aside and turned to look at Han Fei.

"The imperial examination is really good. At least from the principle point of view, it is a very good system. I want to try it, to see the heroes of the world, and to see the prince of Qin by the way." Han Not truthfully speaking.

"I'm planning to go too, why don't we go together! With the talent of my junior, I'm sure I'll be able to stand out from the crowd. For me, I'll give it a try." Li Si said very sincerely.

"Haha! Don't talk about you, even the old man wants to go and see how Qin's imperial examination system is like?" Xunzi laughed loudly.

"The imperial examination is a great invention. For talents, it is an extremely fair method. As long as you have enough talent, you can be elected as an official, and there is no need to look at the original superiors as before. "Li Si said.

"Not only that, Yingzheng should have a longer-term plan. Through this method, all the rights to recruit talents will be returned to the center instead of being kept in the hands of the gentry, and some poor families can be cultivated to fight against the gentry. "Han Fei saw something extraordinary in it.

"However, doing so is undoubtedly a tiger's mouth for food. Are those gentry happy to give up these food? I am afraid that Ying Zheng will arouse public outrage, and the end will be even more dire than Shang Yang." Li Si said worryingly, it is good to do so, But those who do this kind of thing, from before to now, few have a good ending.
