Chapter 875： wronged

  Mu Yangling never thought of enjoying movable type printing exclusively, not to mention that it was the result of his ancestors, it was also made by Lin Ke, he didn't feel bad, how could she be stingy?

She would have given this skill to Qi Xiuyuan, but Qi Xiuyuan didn't like it, so she opened a bookstore by herself,

Now he wants it, but it's just a matter of saying a word to her, and she doesn't believe that an official dares to send a steward to her bookstore to buy someone.

It is only through the skin of the court to do things well.

Anyone who has checked carefully will know that she does not hide this skill, but this does not mean that she is not angry. How could Mu Yangling not be angry when he was dealt with by such rude means?

"Be sure to find out who is behind the steward, and if they come to buy skills, they will hold me down."

This matter is not a big deal, but the manager of one bookstore wants to bribe the workers of another bookstore, trying to steal art.

But the matter involved the royal palace of Rongjun and the bookstore of the imperial court, which was no small matter.

The people of the Wucheng Soldiers and Horse Division did not dare to neglect, and reported to each other. The commander of the Wucheng Soldiers and Horse Division just entered the palace and had something important to report to the emperor.

The emperor's face immediately turned cold, and he asked, "Someone pretended to be a court official to buy off the servants of Rongjun Wangfu?"

The    commander was taken aback and hurriedly said, "It's not the servants of Rongjun Wang's mansion, but a worker of the bookstore under the princess' name. I want to find out the printing method used by the bookstore."

Qi Xiuyuan sneered and asked, "Is there a difference?"

They are all servants of the palace, there is no difference, but the workers of the bookstore are only involved in trade secrets. If the servants of the palace are involved, the lives of several masters will be involved. .

But the commander didn't mention it when he saw that the emperor was angry.

"Moveable type printing?" The emperor thought about it for a long time before he remembered the term, "The princess mentioned it to me, it was the previous dynasty, we were in the north, there was something made by a child in her nursery, the imperial court. If they want to talk to me, or go to ask the princess, do they need to send a steward to bribe the servants?”

The emperor said coldly: "Send someone to find out, if it is really the officials of the imperial bookstore, they will all be slapped. As an official of the imperial court, he has used such abusive methods. If not, then he must investigate even more. I really want to know who is so capable of directing the steward of the Imperial Court Bookstore to come forward to do such a thing."

The commander is busy responding, anyway, this matter has to be checked.

Qi Xiuyuan and the others pulled their eyebrows together and stared at the booklet on the table after they exited. It's just a printing method, isn't it faster than engraving?

Is    really so important?

What did A-Ling say when he came to him excitedly with the recipe?

Qi Xiuyuan shook his head with a headache. Two things in a row involved books. He felt that it was a little bit incomprehensible about the connection with scholars. It wasn't something like high-yielding rice seeds, so would he need to steal it?

Wasn't A Ling selling the money back then, and those bookstores couldn't afford a few hundred taels of silver?

Moreover, these people are courageous enough to dare to move their minds to the royal palace of Rongjun.

The soldiers of the Five Cities also scolded those people in their hearts for eating the courage of an ambitious leopard, and they increased their workload for nothing.

They thought that they would offend some big people this time. After all, how small can the person who dared to move his mind to the palace of Rongjun Wang?

But this time it was really a small person.

Even the commander of the five-city soldiers and horses couldn't help but sigh, "It's really audacious."

Mu Yangling's bookstore has printed a lot of Hanlin's poems, essays and travel notes, and even some official experience. It can be said that it is very popular. The bookstore's business is so good that many bookstores come to ask for goods. As long as those few new books, but seeing that the wholesale prices of other scriptures in their family are not expensive, and there are discounts for buying more, I bought a lot of books without resisting the temptation.

They bought more here, and naturally they have less cooperation with other big bookstores. Those big bookstores are inevitably anxious. If this is an ordinary bookstore, it's fine. When a few of them join forces or lower prices or push down, they can always beat people, but this It belongs to Princess Rongjun, the royal family of Rongjun has a great family, and may not care about the profit of this bookstore, but if he offends the king of Rongjun, as long as he asks the court to charge a few more stamp duties, they will have to move their vitality, so although everyone is anxious , but the fight was to bribe the manager of the Wangfei Bookstore, let the other party relax a bit, and give them an idea of ​​​​a way of life, so that everyone in the business will give a sum of money, but at least they will not offend Rongjun Wang.

However, a nephew of the owner of Wenhan Bookstore was in pain after seeing the gift list listed by his uncle. Their family has been a bookstore for nearly a hundred years. This craft is too precocious to be mature. Why should the princess only enter this business and suppress them? ?

He didn't think that the princess was using her power to overwhelm others, but that they could do the skills that the workers in her bookstore could produce.

So he found the manager of the imperial bookstore.

The imperial bookstore and several big bookstores have always had cooperation and contact. Everyone is really tight on the handed down craftsmanship, but everyone will also communicate with each other to improve their skills, and the imperial court's bookstore has always been in charge of regulating them. Characters, the imperial bookstores will also communicate with several big bookstores after they have improved their skills.

And the best craftsmen in the world are in the public house, and then there are the old workers of the major bookstores.

The nephew of the owner of Wenhan Bookstore approached the manager of the bookstore to ask him if he had heard of the engraving method used by the Princess Bookstore, and if he could also study it. If so, they could save a lot of money. The method of treating the symptoms but not the root causes.

The director of the bookstore is in charge of the most capable craftsmen, and it happened that he was short of money recently, so he patted his chest and said, "We are all used to this business, even if there is no specific recipe, as long as there is a direction, we can definitely study it. Come out, I will discuss it with the old masters later to see if I can study it."

The owner's nephew was naturally happy, so he left with fifty taels of silver and went back.

The manager of the bookstore asked the old craftsmen to study, but everyone had no direction, and there was no place to make any effort at the moment. When the manager's mind moved, he thought of the workers who bought the princess bookstore.

He also didn't want to buy specific recipes, as long as the other party said how they could carve so many editions of the book in a period of time?

movable type, how to live.

Everyone always hears them call movable type printing, but they don’t understand the meaning of how the characters work. If they know that the article is composed of a single typeface, they don’t need Mu Yangling to explain much, and those old craftsmen will definitely be able to make it after a few studies.

The worker deserved a good face, and told him to find a safe place, but who knew that he turned his head and sold him.

The steward burst into tears, and said, "I really didn't want to buy Wang Fei's concubine's recipe, I just inquired about the other party's method. Even if we give a few words, we can still have a research direction. The small admits that the small is despicable and shameless, I went with the idea of ​​stealing the art, but I really didn't think I could buy the whole recipe, just for four or five taels of silver, just give me a sentence, how does that word 'live'!"
