Of course Cui Yuxiu knew it was impossible, but at present there were only these two options.
"How about we destroy the movable type printing technology?" Cui Zhifeng suggested.
In fact, he still felt that just killing Lin Xuan would be the end of it.
Cui Yuxiu and Cui Hao looked at Cui Zhifeng as if they were an idiot.
When woodblock printing was invented, didn't the aristocratic family think of destroying it?
The technical content of this kind of thing is not high, what is rare is the idea.
Now that many people know the principles of movable type printing, how can it be destroyed?
Cui Yuxiu said: "According to what the clan uncle said, Zhi Feng, hurry back to the clan and report this matter to grandpa and let grandpa decide."
Cui Zhifeng grimaced and nodded.
He also knew that at this time, he couldn't help it.
"Then what if Lin Xuan comes to us these days and asks us to help him sell books?" Cui Hao said.
Cui Yuxiu said: "It doesn't matter, I'll go see him."
…
Lin Xuan didn't pay much attention to the distribution of newspapers.
In fact, Chinese newspapers were invented in the Tang Dynasty.
The earliest newspaper was "Kaiyuan Zabao", which was published during the Kaiyuan period. The newspaper was printed with woodblock printing and the quality was not very high. It was not originally registered because the year number when it was published was during the Kaiyuan period, so later generations called it
It is "Kaiyuan Miscellaneous News". "Miscellaneous News" is another name for Di News.
The imperial court of the Song Dynasty began to officially publish newspapers. There were many titles for newspapers at that time, including "Di Bao", "Chaobao", "Di Chao", "Jinzou Yuanzhuang", "Zhuang Bao", etc. "Di Bao" was the most common among them.
title.
The contents of "Di Bao" mainly include the emperor's edicts and orders, daily words and deeds, central government decrees and communiqués, news about official appointments, rewards and punishments, and ministers' memorials. The publication of "Di Bao" is subject to the control of the imperial court.
However, the Di newspapers of the Song Dynasty were not printed, but hand-copied.
It was not until the late Ming Dynasty that movable type printing began to be used in newspapers.
Therefore, newspapers were not too advanced for the ancients.
Chunyue walked into the study and said, "Sir, Miss Cui is here to see you."
Lin Xuan put down his pen and said, "Bring the person to the front hall, I'll be there right away."
"yes!"
Unexpectedly, Cui Yuxiu's reaction was so fast. Lin Xuan thought it would take some time for him to react.
After putting away the mathematics textbook materials he had compiled, Lin Xuan came to the front hall.
"Why are you still in Chang'an, Miss Cui? I thought you had gone back." Lin Xuan said with a smile.
Cui Yuxiu looked at Lin Xuan and said, "Master Hou is so calculating!"
"I don't understand what Miss Cui means." Lin Xuan said pretending to be confused.
Cui Yuxiu said calmly: "Movable type printing!"
Lin Xuan smiled and said: "It turns out that this is what Miss Cui said, it's just some little tricks."
Cui Yuxiu sneered: "We all underestimated you."
They always thought that Lin Xuan made paper to take revenge on the Wang family.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xuan built a plank road to infiltrate Chen Cang secretly, and played with the five surnames and Qi Wang in the applause.
"Miss Cui, it's not that you underestimated me, it's just that you never took me seriously." Lin Xuan smiled lightly.
Cui Yuxiu was silent, Lin Xuan was right, the aristocratic family did not take him seriously.
If they weren't worried about Li Shimin, Lin Xuan would be nothing to them.
"Tell me what you have to do before you are willing to give up!" Cui Yuxiu said.
Lin Xuan shrugged and said, "Do you think it's useful for me to give up now?"
Yes, what if Lin Xuan gives up now? Will Li Shimin give up?
"At the very least, the agreement between you and our Cui family must be cancelled." Cui Yuxiu said.
Even if the proliferation of books is unstoppable, the Cui family must not add fuel to the flames. Otherwise, other aristocratic families will definitely hate the Cui family.
"This is not something I can decide. Why do you think His Majesty agreed to bear witness?" Lin Xuan spread his hands and said helplessly.
The Wang family hasn't solved the problem yet. Lin Xuan doesn't want to anger the Cui family yet, so he will blame Li Shimin for the first time. Anyway, the family hates Li Shimin.
"I have always been puzzled. You seem to have a deep prejudice against our family. If you were promoted to the royal family in order to cater to the royal family, your goal has been achieved now. In a few decades, your Lin family may also become a family. Now you are moving.
What good does the foundation of a noble family do to you?" Cui Yuxiu said.
The people who hold the most power in the court now are Li Shimin's confidants.
Seriously, those people can be considered loyal ministers, but when it comes to their treatment of the aristocratic family, no one is like Lin Xuan, who offends the aristocratic family to death.
There are not many loyal ministers who are so loyal that they don't care about their own interests, but they are very few.
Lin Xuan was silent. If he hadn't traveled through time, he might have wanted to experience the Lin family as a noble family.
"Does Miss Cui think the aristocratic family can continue to exist?" Lin Xuan said.
The aristocratic families used to be the protagonists of history. They could interfere with the imperial power, carry out destructive actions, and even had personal armed forces in the local area.
But since the emergence of the imperial examination, it has heralded the decline of the family.
It is really ridiculous that the aristocratic family has not realized the crisis yet, does not want to change, and is still thinking about fighting for power and profit.
Although the imperial examination at this time opened up the official career path for the children of poor families, due to the accumulation of many years of accumulation in aristocratic families, there are basically very few high-ranking officials from poor families. Families such as Cui Lu, Wang Zheng, etc., even if the competition is fair, they are still noble families.
The hope of scholars all over the world.
"What do you mean?" Cui Yuxiu's expression changed.
Is it possible that Li Shimin wants to take action against the Aristocratic Family?
Lin Xuan said: "It's not interesting. I just want to make the world fairer and give people all over the world a chance to make progress."
Cui Yuxiu sneered and said: "Fair? I always thought that the Marquis was a smart man, but I didn't expect that the Marquis would come up with such a ridiculous reason. When has this world ever been fair?"
Ridiculous? Maybe.
There is indeed no absolute fairness in the world. Most resources are always in the hands of a few people.
This kind of thing cannot be avoided at any time.
But at least it should be relatively fair.
The aristocratic family was too greedy. They had the channels to rise and a large amount of land.
Ordinary people can only be oppressed by them and will never get ahead.
"The Marquis should know that books are the foundation of every family in the world. Have you considered the consequences of doing this?" Cui Yuxiu said.
The monopoly of knowledge is the foundation of the family, and Lin Xuan is simply playing with fire by doing this.
How many aristocratic families are there in the world?
Lin Xuan wanted to cut off their roots, how could they let Lin Xuan go?
Historically, those who harmed the interests of the majority of people did not end well.
This majority does not refer to common people, but to aristocratic families.
Wang Mang failed because he wanted to reform the land, which affected the interests of the family.
During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, they almost destroyed the Eastern Han Dynasty because they attacked the aristocratic families and made the aristocratic families who were watching the excitement realize the threat of the Yellow Turbans to them. In the end, the aristocratic families stepped in and the Yellow Turbans were quickly destroyed.
"Thank you, Miss Cui, for your concern. If I dare to do anything, I will naturally consider the consequences." Lin Xuan said lightly.
He is not a fool, of course he knows that if he develops movable type printing, the family will not let him go.
Cui Yuxiu stared at Lin Xuan, trying to tell from his face whether he was bluffing.
Lin Xuan was calm and composed, facing her gaze without any disturbance.
What is his trump card?
Cui Yuxiu really couldn't imagine where Lin Xuan had the confidence to be unafraid of the world's aristocratic families.
"I have something to trouble Miss Cui. I want to meet the person in charge of Wu surnamed Qi Wang. Can you make an appointment for me? Of course, it would be better if Miss Cui could invite more people from aristocratic families to come over." Lin
