Rebirth Space Little Fierce Girl

  Chapter 308 A book made of paper

  Nangong Anshan stayed in the city for a few more days, knowing that the shop would be safe, she returned to Liuye Village to do other things.

  On the second day of June, Nangong Anshan was eating breakfast when the kiln burner came to inform her that all the characters she wanted had been baked.

  She was about to go and have a look, when Er Jian came over and said that Qiao Shengli had arrived.

  Nangong Anshan let him in and asked, "Grandpa Qiao, what do you want?"

   Qiao Shengli was flattered when he heard her addressing him, and said, "My little boss, we know it might be too much to make this request now, but there is nothing we can do about it, so I ask my little boss to agree."

  Nangong Anshan said: "You came here to build a house in your village, right?"

"Yes." Qiao Shengli said: "The people of Changshui Village, let me come over to discuss with you as a representative, and say that now your land has been reclaimed and everything has been planted, so they want to put the house It's been built, otherwise they won't be able to live well this winter, after all, His Royal Highness Li Wang won't send charcoal to us."

Nangong Anshan said: "You're right, my field is really not very busy now, especially with the help of people from other villages, if they want to build a house, let's build it, I will give them fifteen days to let They build their houses well, and I will keep their work qualifications for them, and they can come back after they build their houses.”

  Qiao Shengli said gratefully: "Thank you, little boss."

  Nian Pingping asked suspiciously: "Miss, the houses of many people in this village haven't been built yet, why don't they come and tell you that they want to build houses?"

Nangong Anshan said: "It's nothing strange. It's only been a few months since the new year, and they don't have much money in their hands. Now they can build a house, at most they can only build another green brick house. They don't bother to go It’s too much trouble, why not save more money and build a magnificent yard next year.”

   "When people from other villages came over, they had a lot of Li Wang's compensation money in their hands. It's normal for them to build houses now."

  Nian Pingping suddenly realized, "So it is."

  After Qiao Shengli left, Nangong Anshan went to inspect the field again.

   Now her field is planted with many other things besides rice.

  For example, cotton, rapeseed, garlic, pepper, sugar cane, etc., as long as she may use it in the workshop, she has planted a lot of them.

  In addition, she also planted a lot of mulberry trees and other trees needed for papermaking.

  Dugu Huanxu also sent someone over to ask her to buy cotton seeds, and she sold a lot of them.

  After the tour, she went to the place where she fired the kiln to see how her calligraphy was burning.

  When it arrived, she checked each letter, made sure each one was perfect, and began to assemble it on a chuck, ready to print.

  The people next to her didn't know what she was going to do, but after seeing her fiddling for a while, there were a lot of words on the paper in front of her.

  A person looked at the words above and couldn't help but read out, "At the beginning of human beings, nature is good, nature is similar, habits are far away... This is the Three Character Classic."

   Nangong Anshan smiled and said: "That's right, this is the Three-Character Classic. With movable type printing and paper, the Three-Character Classic can be printed in a book in the future, and there is no need to carry heavy bamboo slips."

  People around were shocked when they heard the words. They didn't expect that paper could be used in this way, and books could be printed in this way.

Nangong Anshan continued: "The characters on this chuck can be removed. If there is no shortage of this book in the market in the future, the characters can be removed, rearranged, and printed in other books. There is no problem at all. would be wasted."

  The people around were even more shocked.

  Then it is too convenient to make a book like this.

  Nangong Anshan asked them to continue burning the characters. After all the characters needed for the Three Character Classic were burned, she asked people to take them to the paper workshop.

   There is her printing workshop in the paper workshop, and the printed books will also be in the paper workshop in the future.

  She found a few people, and also took the book of the Three Character Classic out of the space, and then demonstrated it to them.

   Printing is very simple. After she finished the demonstration, she said, "Have you all learned it yet?"

  Several people said at the same time: "I have learned."

Nangong Anshan said: "Then it's up to you to print. Remember, you have to print neatly like me, and you can't be perfunctory. If there are really mistakes, that page will be discarded. Do it again. Be sure to do it." You must make every book perfect, if you do well, I can give you a bonus of two liang this month, if you don’t do well, I will deduct his money, do you understand?"

"knew."

  After Nangong Anshan finished speaking, she asked them to do it themselves.

  Nangong Anshan watched for a while, and saw that they were doing well, so she went to do other things.

  She didn't go far, she went to the workshop next door and started to build her giant loom.

  Although the workshop has not been built yet, her machines are ready to be arranged.

  On the fifth day of June, because she sent people to print books in turn in the morning and evening, there were already thousands of copies of the Sanzijing printed at this time.

   She gave other primers of the era to print.

  Early in the morning, she got up early, took a book and walked to Qingshufang.

  As soon as she arrived at Qingshufang, she placed her Three Character Classic in the most conspicuous place in the shop, so that people could see it as soon as they came in.

  Of course, she didn't finish all of them. When the shelves were sold out, she would replenish them.

   Soon, guests came in one after another to buy what they needed.

   Some regular customers saw Nangong Anshan here and greeted her.

At this moment, a person saw the "Three Character Classic", picked it up immediately, and after flipping through a few pages, said in shock: "This...the "Three Character Classic" made of this paper is so beautiful, the writing is also very good. Beautiful, each one is pleasing to the eye.”

   Other people around who heard his voice also went to pick it up and have a look.

   "It's really good. I actually finished the Three Character Classic in one book."

   "This is too light."

   "This font is too beautiful and clear."

   "Why do I feel that the fonts in every book are exactly the same, this is amazing."

  …

  Hearing everyone's praise, Nangong Anshan's smiling eyes narrowed.

  One person suddenly turned his head and asked, "Shopkeeper, how did you sell the Three Character Classic?"

   Shopkeeper Zhou had heard Nangong Anshan talk about the price, and said loudly, "Guest, that's two taels of silver per piece."

   "Two taels of silver? This is too expensive."

   "It's not expensive. It's written so clearly that children will definitely be interested in reading it."

   "It's a little expensive, but it's a book made of paper. It's normal to be a little more expensive, and I can accept it."

   "There is a reason why it is expensive. This book is so light and clear, I think it is worth it."
