Because Qin Zheng was busy with Goguryeo, he finally chose to give up his plan to take this opportunity to attack the remaining half of Youzhou.
Similarly, Chi You in the Yellow Turban also chose to refuse because he was busy with other things.
Of course, what Chi You was busy with was not fighting, but other things.
Just when Li Xiang led his army to reach Mengjin Pass, a sudden heavy rain broke out. And with this heavy rain, a piece of news that shocked everyone in the world suddenly came out.
Li Xiang slowly took out a few pieces of soft paper from his arms, with an inexplicable smile exuding from the corner of his mouth. In this era, papermaking and printing finally came into being. At the same time, these two technologies also
Various channels spread throughout the Han Dynasty.
Moreover, the emergence of these two technologies immediately caused huge fluctuations in the world. These two technologies were a disaster for the aristocratic family, a disaster that could completely overthrow and weaken the foundation of the aristocratic family.
And Chi You, who had spread these two skills, instantly became a thorn in the eyes of the aristocratic family all over the world. They wanted to kill him quickly, even though Chi You's original relationship with the aristocratic family was not that good.
Of course, after spreading these two technologies, Chi You himself also received huge gains. Not only did he fundamentally suppress the aristocratic families in the world, but Chi You also received the support of a large number of children from poor families and civilian students. Originally, the Yellow Turban Army had always
There was a lack of civil servants, and the proportion of civil and military officials was seriously unbalanced. However, as Chi You spread the two technologies of printing and papermaking throughout the world, some literati began to gradually join Chi You's Yellow Turbans.
Although the two technologies of printing and papermaking were digging into the roots of aristocratic families, Chi You became a blessing to the children of poor families and the pitiful few civilian students, and brought them hope.
It is said that the rich in literature and martial arts are poor. Practicing martial arts requires a lot of nutrients to supplement your body's consumption. But in an era when cheap paper has not yet become popular, the price required to study literature is not at all as high as that of learning martial arts. It is even more difficult to learn literature than to learn martial arts.
many.
In this era, it is not that there was no paper. Cai Lun of the Eastern Han Dynasty had already transformed papermaking. However, despite this, due to cost and quality issues, bamboo slips were mostly used in this era.
In this era, the transmission of culture was in the hands of aristocratic families. For example, the books in this era were basically volumes of bamboo slips, and the preservation of these bamboo slips was extremely difficult, and they even needed to be renewed every once in a while.
Make a copy and re-collect it.
And the only ones who can do this are the aristocratic families.
As for ordinary people, they are still struggling for the most basic food and clothing every day, so how can they be in the mood to do those things? Therefore, even if these ordinary people are given bamboo slips, they cannot preserve them.
As for those children from poor families or powerful people in the area, they may be financially wealthy, but if they want to truly learn knowledge, they still need to seek help from those aristocratic families.
Because this knowledge is almost impossible for others to learn except for people from these aristocratic families. Just like some of our modern science and technology, if there is no one to teach you, and you just rely on your own imagination to imagine it, I really don’t know how many generations it will take.
People may come up with something, but if they don’t have relevant experience, they may not be able to come up with it for dozens of generations. This is the so-called knowledge monopoly.
In the Han Dynasty, this situation was extremely normal. These aristocratic families had always monopolized this unique knowledge, so they had always been among the upper echelons of society.
As for where Chi You got the two technologies of papermaking and printing, they were naturally passed on to him by Li Xiang. Even in order for Chi You to obtain these two technologies smoothly, Li Xiang spent a lot of effort.
.
The story starts with Zhou Cang. After all, Zhou Cang was also the sword-carrying general of Lord Guan Er. He was considered a fairly famous figure in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
After the Yellow Turban Uprising captured Zhou Cang, Li Xiang also thought about recruiting Zhou Cang to surrender for his own use. But it may be that Li Xiang and Zhou Cang's bond of fate is limited, or it may be that Li Xiang really is not as kind as Guan Erye.
Unique aura, in short, Li Xiang's road to surrender failed.
Even though Li Xiang came forward in person, Zhou Cang was unwilling to let go, as if he wanted to be loyal to his great mentor Zhang Jiao.
However, although he failed to successfully recruit and surrender to Zhou Cang, Li Xiang did not kill him, but imprisoned him.
It was not until later that Li Xiang thought about bringing the two technologies of papermaking and printing to the market through Chi You's hands that Li Xiang finally remembered the existence of Zhou Cang. Instead of keeping Zhou Cang in prison, he might as well make good use of it.
Let’s take a look at its residual value.
So, with the help of an invisible mastermind, Zhou Cang unexpectedly found a way to escape. And Zhou Cang did live up to Li Xiang's expectations and successfully escaped.
Of course, in order to make the play more realistic, since it was necessary to send out manpower to hunt down Zhou Cang who had escaped, he even had to directly kill him. However, under Li Xiang's deliberate actions, he also added a few unintentional ones.
Coincidentally, although he was scarred, Zhou Cang finally escaped back to Yanzhou and the Yellow Turbans' headquarters.
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Cang, who thought he had finally escaped, the first thing he did after seeing Chi You was to tell him that he accidentally heard some news when he was in Bingzhou. At this moment, everything went according to Li Xiang's plan.
develop like that.
Under Li Xiang's intentional actions, several spies from the Floating Water Room who were considered abandoned by the Yellow Turbans were discovered by Chi You and Zhou Cang, and the mission of these spies happened to be to collect craftsmen for Bingzhou.
As Bei Chiyou, the spies in the floating water houses, found out, the batch of craftsmen collected by the spies in the floating water houses naturally fell into the hands of the Yellow Turbans.
What happened next was very logical. Chi You unexpectedly obtained the two technologies of papermaking and printing from the hands of the craftsman.
Chi You, who had obtained these two technologies, did not act rashly, but chose a good opportunity. While the princes in the world were attracted by Dong Zhuo's affairs and couldn't get away, papermaking and printing were like this.
It was released in Dahan.
No matter what the mood of those aristocratic families in the world is, at least Li Xiang is very happy now.
It is true that Li Xiang also comes from a noble family, but Li Xiang is also a prince who wants to reach the supreme position all the way. Moreover, with the help of the system and the assistance of outstanding figures from all dynasties in China for 5,000 years, Li Xiang believes
That supreme position ultimately belongs to him.
And once he ascends to that position, he must do something to weaken the family for the stability of his rule, but now he is just moving these things forward.
