Chapter 121

According to the laws of Wu and Zhou dynasties, all the so-called green forest characters are regarded as criminals, and anyone who makes friends with criminals is treated equally. In other words, anyone who maintains a close relationship with green forest characters can be regarded as breaking the laws and regulations by six doors, or even arrested directly as a criminal. The risk is quite high.

Although the Liao family is a wealthy businessman and has a certain reputation in the local area, this reputation or strength can be ignored for the six doors that are only responsible to the emperor. Even the first and second-class dignitaries in the court and even the heavyweight Royal relatives and relatives at the level of princes, the six doors are always checked if they want to, and will never be soft, After all, the significance of the existence of this institution is to act as the eyes of the emperor. Is it the land of the king? If the emperor wants to open his eyes, who dares not to show it? If you don't show it, it is contempt for imperial power and rebellion.

So Mo Jiao doesn't care about the Liao family. She's just absolutely bored, and Ren Haoyun doesn't mean to leave Anning County for the time being, which makes Mo Jiao very depressed. She always has to find something to pass the time.

"If it's true, I'll give the Liao family some color to see. Hum, the merchant family dares to deal with the green forest, and these local officials dare to ignore it. Do they really think there is no royal law in the world?"

"I support you in this matter, but it is best to make a secret investigation. If there is something unclear, you may ask Li Luoyang, but he is the litigant."

"If you say so, I have to hurry up." Mo Jiao nodded and took Xiaohui to find Li Luoyang as soon as he turned around. The reason why Xiaobai was left was to protect Ren Haoyun, the most imperial eagle dog, and the people of six doors. The daily risk is also very high.

"Elder sister, are you looking for brother Luoyang? But he's not with me today."

Mo Jiao and Xiao Hui strolled to Li Luoyang's yard. Unfortunately, they only saw Chen Ma with Zhu Ying basking in the sun. This is what Li Luoyang asked. Children should bask more in the sun, otherwise there will be problems with poor calcium absorption and growth. Zhu Ying's innocence and loveliness attracted Mo Jiao. She went up and pinched Zhu Ying's face. When she was about to speak, she saw the little girl's mouth shriveled and cried loudly.

"I didn't do anything. Don't rely on me. Don't rely on me." when Mo Jiao saw the battle, he waved to Chen Ma and retreated with little ash. His eyes glanced around, as if he was worried that his behavior had just been seen.

"It's OK. Are you looking for the young master? He's really not here. Why don't you come back later?"

"OK, let's come back later. Come back later." Mo Jiao walked away dejectedly. Even the little ash on one side couldn't understand. How could miss Mo Jiao run away scared by a little girl? This can't blame Xiao Hui. Mo Jiao's reaction is not because she can't see the children, but because Zhu Ying is a little girl and her age overlaps with a deep memory fragment of Mo Jiao, so her reaction is so strong.

"Mom Chen, did yingzi perform well just now? Can I reward snacks? I want maltose today."

"OK, no problem, just eat maltose. Oh, my little ancestor, keep your voice down, but don't let people hear. They haven't gone out of the yard yet. Keep your voice down." in fact, Chen Ma and Zhu Ying don't know. For Mo Jiao and Xiao Hui, who haven't gone out of the yard and have become successful in martial arts, this distance can be ignored, Even though Mrs. Chen has lowered her voice, it's no use. The conversation between the two people is clearly heard. Little gray's face shows a color of playfulness, and her eyes stare at Mo Jiao to see what the aunt plans to do.

"Forget it, let's go. There's nothing to worry about with the little girl. Hum, it's all broken by the cunning guy Li Luoyang. I'll settle with him later!"

Li Luoyang, who was in Teacher Li's blacksmith shop, suddenly sneezed. "Oh, who is thinking about my brother? I'm not that kind of casual person. Honest uncle, have you succeeded?"

Today, Li Chengcheng's blacksmith shop is carrying out a new experiment, type.

The sales volume of Liaozhai interesting talk has been getting better and better. Many businessmen will even wait at the door of Moxiang bookstore. The new issue of periodicals will be robbed immediately, and then sent to the surrounding towns, even big cities such as Chang'an and Luoyang.

Zhou Lin reported to Li Luoyang some time ago that the production efficiency of the bookstore has reached a limit, and it is difficult to continue to expand production capacity unless we continue to increase workers or improve work efficiency in essence.

In fact, the population of the Wu and Zhou Dynasties is quite large. At present, the number of settled people is close to 50 million, which does not include the population not included in the statistics, such as domestic slaves. In general big cities, the number of slaves will even exceed the number of settled people. After all, a rich family may occupy multiple slaves to maintain its luxurious life.

However, such a huge population has not promoted any business in the whole Zhou Dynasty. Because the registered residence system and slavery system directly lead to these huge population are "dead", these people can not flow at all, and they can not become "land lost workers". In other words, even if Chou Lin Hua has great efforts to expand the scale of the bookshops, it is useless. Because he can only find short-term workers at most, he can't find real employees at all, or he needs to go to the slave market to buy suitable slaves.

But most of the things that can become slaves are illiterate, white Ding. There are great problems in work attitude and psychological attitude, and they are not suitable for the detailed work of printing. Therefore, Li Luoyang has always been opposed to the use of slaves in the bookstore. If you are not careful, you may cause serious losses.

After thinking about it, the only way that Li Luoyang can think of is technological transformation.

If there is movable type printing, it can save a lot of time and labor in the step of typesetting. The wages of skilled engraving craftsmen are not low. Every engraving can't be wrong. Even if one of them is wrong, the whole engraving board will be discarded. Therefore, the short board for the publication of the new book is in the engraving link. Li Luoyang's most want to break through this problem, So as to improve the efficiency of printing.

If you want to upgrade from block printing to movable type printing, there are only two problems that need to be solved. First, the movable type which is durable and convenient for repeated use, and the printing pigment that can hang the paste on the metal word, the ink must not work. The type can't be brushed with ordinary ink at all.

Neither of these two problems is so easy to solve. Li Luoyang is still solving the problem of type firing. If it weren't for Li Chengzhen, a master blacksmith, who is very important for cultural inheritance, I don't know how long it would take to appear in this world.
