Bi Goo put down the newspaper and took a deep breath. His teeth hurt.
The others were silent.
They all recognized the words on the newspaper and knew the meaning of the sentence.
They even had their own detailed understanding of it. They believed that all the students taking the imperial examination were very familiar with it.
This paragraph was marked with pinyin. At the end of this paragraph, there were detailed annotations for the half chapter of "The Great Learning" printed in today's newspaper.
Those who could sit in their seats instantly knew what Li Yi wanted to do.
"Many students of the Tang dynasty did not have books, so they could only copy. After copying the book, they had to look at the annotations again. Different people have different annotations.
I think this annotation is more comprehensive than what I have seen before. Li Yi is so capable that he can annotate "The Great Learning".
Today's newspaper is half of "The Great Learning", and tomorrow it should be the other half.
What's the day after tomorrow? Half of "The Doctrine of the Mean"? The day after tomorrow is the other half of "The Doctrine of the Mean". Haha! "
Lu Huaishen said and laughed dryly at the end.
"Six coins a day in exchange for three large sheets of paper to write on and a book to read. For beginners, half a chapter with annotations is enough to study for a day."
Zhang Shuo shook his head. He felt cold, even though the temperature in the revolving restaurant was over 20 degrees.
Bi Goo sighed: "Is he not afraid of being assassinated?"
Yao Chong opened his eyes: "He does not leave Zhuangzi easily. Every time he comes out, he has a group of guards.
Now the students have books to read, and there are no mistakes in the words. The printing is beautiful.
Six coins to buy a piece of paper this big, and it can't be good paper.
Now that he has bought three pieces, he can also buy the book along with the annotations that it is free. "
Everyone nodded. Yes, Li Yi was printing books in the name of the newspaper.
Many students could not afford to buy books and had to borrow them to copy.
Copying books without wasting ink? Without paper?
Now he only needed six coins to get half of "The Great Learning".
The newspaper was published issue by issue, and the Four Books and Five Classics were all printed.
After the Tang dynasty, no one could monopolize books. Li Yi might not be able to produce many books.
"I know. If he's willing to spend money, he can specially get a newspaper to print books. When the students buy it, it's equivalent to buying books."
Wei Zhiguti and some of the larger families expressed their helplessness. They couldn't restrict anything.
If you want pinyin, you have pinyin. If you want abacus, you have abacus. Now, you have proper textbooks.
Who knew what Li Yi was going to do next? Anyway, it looked scary.
Bi Goo opened the can and poured the chestnut chicken on the plate. "Xiao Yi's moves are unconventional. It's impossible to guard against them."
Zhang Shuo reached out with his chopsticks and picked up a chestnut. "I thought the confrontation would be intense, but now I know that Li Yi can do it without making a sound."
"Not bad."
Lu Huaishen added, "When he lost money selling newspapers, everyone was focused on how he was going to make it back.
Later on, when he fought with the Japanese, everyone watched the show. Seeing how much he had to put in every day just to hold on, they all mocked him.
Following that was pinyin. Everyone noticed that something was wrong, but he was still losing money. They felt that he could not hold on any longer.
Now that he's making money from advertising, he's starting to print books. If we want to stop him, we can only do it through the imperial examinations. We can't give others a chance. "
Lu Huaishen knew a lot. He was originally from a large family.
His salary was given to his clansmen, who would say all kinds of things to him.
It was said that the poor studied while the rich studied martial arts. In fact, studying was not something that the poor could support.
It was a family of seven or eight people, with a few boys among them.
The other children worked, while the smartest one studied. The whole family provided for him.
Even so, this child lacked paper and ink. Brushes and inkstones were easy to deal with.
The key was communication. If there were no books, could they buy them? If they couldn't afford them, they could just copy them.
At night, the rich read with candles and oil lamps. The poor could only recite what they had memorized during the day.
Annotations and annotations for the books of the predecessors were another book.
This was great. Six copper coins to buy three large pieces of paper. Everything was available.
"The Winged Knights are good. The Empress's children are good." Yao Chong shook his head and said something that had nothing to do with the newspapers.
"Yuanzhi is right." Bi Goo agreed. "With 30,000 Winged Knights and the Empress's children, His Majesty can kill whoever he wants. It's perfectly justifiable."
The five people thought about it and felt a chill run down their spine.
Li Yi had been slowly pushing back, waiting for the Winged Knights to arrive in eight and a half hours. At the same time, he had the stamina to do so.
He finally revealed his true intentions. His Majesty would kill anyone who dared to impeach his newspaper in the imperial court.
He hid in Zhuangzi and secretly played tricks. Others could not rush in.
"Everyone, rejoice. Li Yi is from the Tang dynasty. He lives in the Li Family Zhuangzi by the Bashui River, east of Chang 'an."
Wei Zhigu put away the newspaper, picked up his chopsticks, and prepared to eat.
He only saw half of the Great University in the newspaper. There was no need to read the rest.
Yao Chong and the other three looked at each other and felt relieved. Yes, Li Yi was Li Yi from the Tang dynasty.
If there was a Li Yi in the foreign countries, what would the Tang dynasty have to face?
He used to think that he was good at scheming, but now it seemed that he was just fooling around.
He was not scheming about a person, but the general trend of the world.
He kept writing medical books and made tools to benefit the people when he was free. Then he thought about how to increase the income of the people in the imperial government.
When the war started, he supported the frontline.
This was not enough for him to scheme against, nor was it worth it for him to scheme against. His true goal was to further weaken the aristocratic families and large clans.
"If Kongming had half of his ability, the world would have returned to Shu."
After eating two mouthfuls of chicken, Zhang said belittled Zhuge Liang.
"What is he doing now?" Bi Goo was eager to try. He wanted to ask Li Yi how to make money. The Ministry of Revenue was poor!
The Li Family Zhuangzi and Li Yi were eating breakfast.
"Erya, Shuo Wen Jie, Yu Piao, Classic Xiwen, these are not enough.
When I was young, I had a dictionary. When I was in elementary school, I was very willing to look it up. At that time, I liked it, but I didn't think it was very good.
When I came to the Tang dynasty, I realized that the Xinhua dictionary was indeed a treasure. Later, I learned that there was also the Great Chinese Dictionary and Cihai.
What is Zhong Shaojing of the Calligraphy Association busy with? I miss him. His writing is good, but I can't learn it now. "
Li Yi muttered while eating, and the eight palace maids and eunuchs were already used to it.
Dongzhu was always like this. He said some strange things and then promised that something good would appear.
"Kangxi is indeed not ordinary. Kangxi Dictionary, sigh! Yes, find Zhong Shaojing. There has been no news from him recently, and he has nothing to do.
He is a person who cares about face. Give him face and then give him money. Remind me that Zhong Shaojing is a good person. "
Li Yi muttered and turned his head to speak to the eunuchs and palace maids.
The eight of them nodded in unison, indicating that they understood. Even if their class said that Dongzhu ignored them, they still had to note it down and tell the next class.
Zhong Shaojing, who was remembered by Li Yi, was still worried. It was winter, and the Calligraphy Association did not do anything big. They did not have much of a presence.
The key was that he did not have money. He did get some money from selling his calligraphy, but that was his money. He could not use it on the Calligraphy Association.
Where could he get some money? He could gather the students in Chang 'an and find a place to settle the matter of calligraphy.
He could not be the Minister of Revenue, but he could not be the president of the Calligraphy Association? His regular script would be so beautiful.
Why not … write a letter to Li Yi? Li Yi was rich.
Zhong Shaojing thought of who had more money and decided to use his calligraphy to impress Li Yi and get some money for half a calligraphy exchange.
