The streets are quiet, and the sunset hangs like a fireball on the side of the building.

Lin Qingran walked leisurely on the blue brick road, his shadow stretched very long. Perhaps he was tired of the house, the little girl's sturdy face was pressed against his back, and her cute and naughty nose made a slight breath

Voice.

After realizing that the wild girl was asleep, he deliberately slowed down his pace, walked very steadily, and was very careful. He did not want to disturb the girl's sleep, nor did he want to destroy the happiness at this moment.

Many times, Hu Niu is naughty, active, and full of wildness. But at this moment, she leans on his back tightly and no longer clamors, like a gentle kitten.

When passing Huaishu Hutong, he looked inside. He saw neither Xu Jie's sedan chair nor Wu Shan's sedan chair nor Wu Qiuyu's sedan chair.

When he walked back to Lingshi Hutong, it was as quiet as usual, and the locust tree branches that had been explored in the Hutong looked even greener. When he returned to the door, he looked at the brand new plaque and the red painted gate, and his face was stunned.

After this girl's renovation, especially the extremely conspicuous "Lin Mansion" plaque, he suddenly felt like home, and he suddenly felt a strong sense of belonging.

With Hu Niu accompanying him, Lin Weiran's life is no longer so monotonous. After returning home from the yamen, he can follow Hu Niu to the rooftop to watch the sunset, or take her to the night market.

Even if it is raining heavily, Hu Niu and Hu Niu can stay at home, either to get some food, or play balls in the house, or as before: when he writes, she looks at the lights.

At work, he led this person from the Hanlin Academy's Supervision and Inspection Department. He spent only a few days. From the finalization of the ancient and modern version to the publication, the world's first publication was officially released.

The Ministry of Rites is in charge of the Imperial College, and there is a censorship under the Imperial College, which has engraving workshops, printers, matching workers and binding workers, and is one of the largest printing workshops of this era.

During this period, in order to pursue low cost and high efficiency, the printing industry not only improved printing technology, but also the emergence of craftsmanship characters.

The craftsman style is the Song font that later generations are well-known to them. The biggest feature of this font is that it is light horizontally and heavy vertically, strong and powerful, and does not pursue the beauty of calligraphy, but is only correct and easy to recognize.

In the past, engraving engineers needed to know calligraphy and be good at copying, so that the engraved plates could satisfy customers or the market. However, in this way, the talent of engraving engineers was scarce, which restricted the printing efficiency.

With the emergence of marshal characters, the threshold for engraving workers has been greatly reduced, and even illiterate illiterate people can do this job. Therefore, the printing efficiency of using marshal characters has been greatly improved.

Don't underestimate this small improvement, which not only improves efficiency, but also reduces costs. Just like computer seals replaced hand-engraved seals in later generations, the former only costs five yuan, while the latter costs dozens to hundreds.

.

Of course, any new thing is inevitably criticized by the Preservationists. The same is true for marshalling. In the eyes of some conservatives, this marshalling is simply a kind of insult to the text, and there is no printed book.

The beauty is evident.

When facing the two options of copying and craftsmanship, Lin Qingran chose the latter without hesitation. That's why the thousand publications he needed have been released and can enter the sales stage.

Dear...

At the entrance of the Jiankefang, a little groom waved his whip, looked ahead with bright eyes, and shouted crisply, then headed towards the agreed bookstore.

During these days, the warm-hearted Hu Niu was not idle and helped contact some bookstores.

Lin Xuran looked at the carriage and slowly walked away. After seeing the ceremony with the person in charge of the Jiankefang, he planned to return to Hanlin Academy to serve on duty.

For them, the Hanlin Academy is like a pool of stagnant water. It takes a day to sit in front of the seat and to look at historical materials, and to copy and write. The days always repeat.

But no matter how idle the Ming Dynasty was, the working system was placed here, and Lin Qingran did not dare to leave the Hanlin Academy for too long. After confirming that there was no problem here, he hurried back.

Old Man Wu?

Lin Qingran was about to step into the Hanlin Academy, but saw a sedan chair coming towards this side. Although he did not have the ability to recognize the sedan chair flowers, he recognized the sedan chair bearer. Wu Shan, who had been missing for several days, appeared again.

Without any hesitation, he flashed into the Hanlin Academy before Wu Shan discovered him.

Although he went out for office, who knew if Wu Shan would pull his braids away? Besides, his consent was not sought before when the founding of the publication was founded, which was actually a small hidden danger.

However, as long as "Talking about the Ancient and the Current" opens up sales, even if Wu Shan has objections, he may still accept this financial path.

When we returned to the maintenance and inspection hall, everyone was busy in front of the seat. Whether reading books, studying history, or doing nothing, everyone looked very leisurely.

Cao Dazhang raised his eyelids, and then continued to rack his brains to make a lyrics. Xu Beiping pretended to look at the book in his hand. When Lin Qingran passed by, his eyes immediately observed Lin Qingran's actions.

Lin Qingran walked directly to Zhu Dashou's desk and divided the book "Talking about the Ancient and the Current" in his arms to him, and then continued to distribute it to Xu Wei, Tao Dalin and others behind him.

This "Talking about the Ancient and the Current" is the result of everyone's joint efforts, so they all took over the publication excitedly and opened it impatiently.

Xu Wei has a calm personality, so his face looks calm.

He first examined the four big words "Talking about the Ancient and the Current" on the cover of the publication, and an illustration next to it. This illustration is a cluster of ordinary thin bamboos, thinking: Lin Qingran, this bamboo gentleman, is indeed a bamboo lover.

Judging from this cover alone, this publication is undoubtedly a normal one. If there is anything different, it is that the cover also printed words such as "April of Wuwu, the first issue, Hanlin Academy Repair and Inspection Department"

.

Obviously, Lin Qingran did not want to do a one-time deal, but wanted to set up the signboard of "Talking about the Ancient and the Current", and then issue it one after another, thereby obtaining a steady stream of silver.

I have to admit that this idea is very good, but the difficulty is also quite great. After all, no one knows what the scholars react and will choose to buy it.

After seeing the cover, Xu Wei expanded his pages and saw a poem that was as follows: "The poems of Li and Du are passed down from thousands of words, but they still feel that they are not new. There are talented people in the country and have been leading the way for hundreds of years."

The moment he finished reading this poem, he was completely stunned and felt like he was hit hard in his heart.
Chapter completed!
