Chapter 260 This is also called the Great Tang Dynasty?
Li Er is not joking, he really feels...
The two taels of silver were not as high as Li Sheng's eyes said.
Empress Changsun, Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui... They all thought the same way, thinking that Li Sheng was joking with Fang Xuanling... that is, Lao Fang.
But what this means is that Li Sheng really thinks Erliang is very high.
But...two liang is really low, right?
Just like Li Er said, the price of this book...
"Yes, the price of this book won't drop to 200 yuan, right?"
"Two hundred coins, aren't these craftsmen going to revolt? That won't even be enough to fill their stomachs."
Everyone said nothing to me, but none of them understood what Li Sheng meant.
In fact... no one believes that the price of this book can be even lower.
But Li Sheng only sneered.
"That's it?"
"Is this the prosperous Tang Dynasty that you talk about every day?"
"The price of a book of two hundred words? Is this also called the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty?"
Li Er and others were completely confused now.
What kind of situation is this? Even two hundred coins is too high?!
Li Er was suddenly startled,
"Wait a minute, Master, let's put it this way... the books produced using this movable type printing technology... can it be possible that the price can be even lower??"
"How much? It's not...it's not even two hundred cents, right?"
Li Er was immediately shocked.
Empress Changsun was dumbfounded. Although she was not involved in the political situation, she was very clear about prices.
Du Ruhui and others also stared at Li Sheng blankly.
You don’t even have two hundred coins?
Then, I heard Li Sheng said leisurely,
"I'm sorry, my books were printed with movable type..."
"Total cost, twenty cents."
"And this is the price of the prototype. After several rounds of optimization, the cost can be reduced to about ten yuan."
…
Li Sheng was not joking.
But the expressions on the faces of Li Er and others, there is no doubt that they feel...
Li Sheng is definitely kidding!
fear!
Shocking!
Shocked!
Twenty articles.
Why the hell didn’t you say you would get twenty coins for free if you buy the book?
Are you doing this magic????
All the faces, at this moment, were all stunned!
Only Xiao Changle didn't know why. She didn't know much about prices, so she could only look at this group of adults with her big eyes flickering.

"Sir, are you...serious?"
"These mechanisms...are really capable..."
"It's really powerful, what do you think?"
Li Sheng shrugged, "With movable type printing, you don't need to make new engravings every time. You only need to arrange these blocks... Hey! Just arrange and combine them."
"How long does it take to carve a block? How long does it take to rearrange the blocks?"
"So... you guys understand, right?"
When Li Sheng said this, Li Er and others took a breath.
Understood.
Totally understand!
Wei Zheng and Du Ruhui looked pale, and Fang Xuanling took a deep breath.
"The time it takes for this engraving master to complete a block of engraving is calculated on a yearly basis... This is positive engraving, not negative engraving!"
"but……"
"It won't even take half a day to arrange a carved block with these blocks... Oh my God!"
At this moment, everyone knew what "two hundred articles is too many" meant.
The production, time, and difficulty of this book have all dropped to a tenth or even a few hundredth of what it was before.
After all, arranging the word blocks doesn’t require any superb carving skills!
Then, the difficulty of making books has also been greatly reduced.
How could this price be so high?
As expected, these two hundred coins are really... too high...
Once they figured out the connection, everyone immediately understood.
That’s outrageous…
It’s really twenty coins per book!
Think about the Tang Dynasty in the future, how low the price of books will be.
How great was the prosperity of literature and education back then?
At this moment, Li Er looked at Li Sheng with stars in his eyes.
Am I going to waste my reputation as an emperor through the ages???
My son is indeed a rare talent!
Hey hey hey hey!
Hahahahaha!
…
I’ve seen Li Sheng’s movable type printing press!
Li Er always felt that he still had more to say.
"Sir, do you have anything else..."
"you shut up."
Just as Li Er was about to ask if there was any more wool for his father, Empress Changsun kicked her calf quietly and glanced at him, "You are a person who knows how to harvest... the young master's wool all day long.
,Didn’t you see that Young Master was playing with Lele?”
"Hahaha……"
Li Er smiled sheepishly. As a father, he seemed to be somewhat incompetent...
But at this time, Du Ruhui saw that Li Sheng and Xiao Changle were getting along very well, and suddenly said, "It's the end of summer. The sun is just right and the breeze is not dry. Why don't we go out for a trip?"
When Li Sheng said this, Li Er and others' eyes suddenly lit up.
Especially Empress Changsun, her face became more radiant.
Although she is a queen, she is Li Er's queen.
Generally, concubines often stay in the deep palace, but Empress Changsun is very skilled in bow and horse.
Now that it’s easy to find a baby, how can we take the baby on a trip without any hassle?
I failed to satisfy Li Sheng in Li Sheng's childhood, and now I naturally have to make up for it!
Li Er was naturally speechless.
He was originally a military commander, and his martial arts skills were no joke. He was at a level that could easily convince the entire army.
Now that you have been a bastard with your child for so long, don’t you have to show off?
Li Sheng and Xiao Changle played for a while, and now they are going on a horseback riding trip together, so naturally they will not refuse!
Of course, there was another person who was also very excited about the proposal.
That’s Li Jing who hasn’t spoken much!
Although Wei Zheng and other civil servants were very excited about the value of movable type printing, Li Jing was a military commander and didn't have much feeling about it.
Now when traveling on horseback, this is his home court!
So everyone hit it off immediately...
Li Sheng looked at Xiao Changle with a smile, "Lele, can you ride a horse?"
Xiao Changle was stunned, but shook his head...
"Master, Lele can't ride a horse..."
When Xiao Changle said this, Li Sheng immediately looked at Li Er and Mrs. Li Er in displeasure, "No, your conditions are good, why don't you teach Lele to ride a horse?"
As everyone walked out, Li Er couldn't help but said in embarrassment, "This...Young Master has also seen it. It's good for girls to study hard at home, why are they still learning this..."
“Stereotype!”
Li Sheng waved his hand directly, "Old Li, believe me. From now on, all young people in the Tang Dynasty... must learn to ride horses. It is better for Lele to learn how to ride a horse earlier, so that he can lead the people, do you understand?"
In Li Sheng's view, this horse is not a cart, but it is much more convenient than a vehicle for transportation.
In later generations, there will be various large vehicles that need to use the road, as well as various comprehensive factors, so it is not supported.
Now that you have the conditions, why not learn?
But when Li Sheng said this, Li Er sighed softly.
"My Tang Dynasty...it's a pity that we don't have so many horses."
