Chapter 925 Open Source Books

In fact, when Han Yi was busy with the Jinxing business, Cui Jieren was not idle. He took advantage of the threat of poor families to first convince the four major families to open source books, contribute some of the books in his family, and establish a gentry academy. At the same time, he also convinced many nobles to join.

In ancient times, people were treasures for books, especially when printing had not yet appeared. Therefore, the word "collection" is often seen in ancient documents. As the saying goes, it is impossible for books to be read by outsiders without leaving home.

The Shandong gentry cherishes books as much as their lives. This is the foundation of their life. However, the rise of poor families now makes them feel a great threat. They must unite. Now it is not to maintain the status of any family, but the entire gentry class. Because there are no factions in the poor families, they are united as one. If the gentry is as scattered as before and fights against each other, it is very likely that they will be defeated one by one by one by the poor families.

Cui Jieren was able to lobby successfully, and he played this card. We established a college, shared books, and used culture to solidify people's hearts. This can also consolidate the reputation and status of the Shandong gentry, because culture has always been the innate advantage of the Shandong gentry. The imperial examinations are compared with culture, and all major families also understand that it is difficult to resist the impact of the poor family alone, and they are forced to transform their thoughts from one family to the entire aristocratic class.

The gentry colleges are aiming at the imperial examination, hoping to continuously provide talents for the imperial examination.

This immediately caused great panic among poor families.

After all, they have been suppressed for hundreds of years, and they still have fear of the gentry in their hearts.

In the past, poor families were beaten and scolded, because the poor families were even more dishevelled and there was no leader, but now it is different. Now Han Yi has become the leader of poor families. At this time, their eyes are focused on their leader, and they began to look forward to a new issue of the Tang Daily. They have learned their lessons now and know that it is useless to find Han Yi. Han Yi will not see them. Their connections with Han Yi all come from the Tang Daily.

How could Han Yi let go of such a good opportunity? The struggle between scholars and common people he sought is to continue to make profits from it.

Palace!

"Bookhouse?"

Li Zhi frowned slightly and looked at Wu Meiniang on the side. Wu Meiniang also looked confused and looked at Han Yi with no idea.

Han Yi said: "Not bad! Your Majesty has always said that seeking talented people, but where did this talent come from? It didn't come out of thin air, but all came from books. But now the royal family and various major families monopolize the collection of books, which has led to poor scholars who have no hope of seeking books. Many geniuses are buried because they have no books to read. If Your Majesty hopes that more talented people will help Your Majesty, the first thing is to open source collections so that more people can read books. This is the purpose of the library."

Regarding open source books, Han Yi has longed for a long time. You can hide secret recipes, but you also hide theoretical knowledge. This will undoubtedly hinder the development of the country. Open source books must be made so that they can make rapid progress.

Li Zhi frowned slightly and said, "I think you are going to the gentry academy."

"Report to your Majesty, yes, but not all."

Han Yi said: "Books are something that people read. If everyone hides them, the function of the book will be greatly weakened. It is like money. Money is placed at home and is a pile of broken copper and iron. Only when it is used, the money will play its value. Opening a book to benefit the people can cultivate more talents for Your Majesty, the Tang Dynasty, and make the Tang Dynasty more stable, and it is no problem to go all the way.

I remember that the empress once told Your Majesty that since ancient times, there have been countless riots, some because the monarch is incompetent and injustice, and some because villains are provoked by it. A very important point is that the people are not educated and are prone to being provoked by others. If the people are well-educated, how could they be instigated by others? The more the people of a country understand the truth, the more stable the country will be."

Li Zhi frowned and said, "That's right, books are the most precious things in the world. If you build a library according to what you say, everyone can encounter it. If it is damaged or lost, it would be a pity!"

This person is selfish, and Li Zhi is no exception. Books are too precious these days, so of course he also wants to take them as private property and is unwilling to take them out and share them with others.

Han Yi immediately said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured. The original books were naturally for royal collections. Wealthy ministers can use printing techniques to print books and put them in the library for the people to read."

I almost forgot that this kid also had printing techniques. Li Zhi said lightly: "But some books involve royal families and are inconvenient to make them public."

He still doesn't want to!

Han Yi persisted and said: "This type of book can only be used as a reference for historical facts and has little effect on the people. The ministers only recommend that some books that are beneficial to the people, such as agriculture, craftsmen, and some scriptures. In addition, the court can also classify library books. What books can ordinary people browse? Candidates who come to Beijing to take the exam can browse those books, and some princes and ministers can browse those books."

Why did this kid become so ignorant today? Li Zhi was very unhappy. The royal collection of books is for the emperor's entertainment, so how could he take them out for others to read?

Han Yi also said: "Your Majesty is always the saying that those big families are selfish and treasure some books. No one can watch them except their own children. They ignore the interests of the country. It is extremely hateful. But then again, if you do this, how can you ask others to disclose your books in your home? Your Majesty should set an example, throw bricks and jade, and open up the royal collection. Only in this way can you ask others to disclose books, so that the country and the people will benefit a lot."

Wu Meiniang, who was standing beside him, suddenly said, "Your Majesty, as I see, Han Yi's words are quite reasonable. I heard that the aristocratic college only allows nobles to be admitted to the hospital. In this case, it will be too unfair to poor scholars. By then, the imperial examination will become a springboard for the nobles to embark on the career path. This is contrary to Your Majesty's original intention. Should Your Majesty take care of the poor scholars and make the imperial examination more fair?"

This sentence hits the point!

A very important reason for promoting the imperial examination was that the emperor wanted to get rid of the aristocrats' monopoly on the court. If the imperial examination was held for the nobles, it would be better not to open it.

Therefore, the emergence of the gentry academy also put some pressure on the emperor. After all, the nobles have unique advantages, and the emperor must take balance measures and cannot let the whole family dominate.

Li Zhi thought for a while and said, "It's not impossible to build a library, but I have a requirement."

The emperor asked, and Han Yi had to be cautious and said, "Your Majesty, please tell me."

Li Zhidao: "I want your paper, ink and printing."

You are too greedy. I am just thinking about you, and you want to cut off my flesh! Han Yi has the heart to curse her.

In fact, this requirement was mentioned a long time ago, but Li Zhi did not take power at that time and handed over it at that time, which was of little significance to him. Now he is in power, and he has also seen the role of printing. The court is increasingly eager for printing. It is impossible for the people to use advanced printing. The court is still copying by hand, which is contrary to the system. In addition, the imperial examinations are being promoted, and the test papers also require printing, so there is no need to say more about paper and ink. Today's ink may not be suitable for printing.

Li Zhi smiled and said, "How?"

Han Yi immediately said: "Everything that I have given to you by Your Majesty. If Your Majesty wants it, I will of course not say anything." He also knew that these things would be handed over to the court sooner or later, so he was so generous.

"Yeah?"

Li Zhi smiled and said, "Then you might as well hand over the perfume and wine together."

Wu Meiniang pursed her lips and smiled when she heard this.

Brother, you are trying to kill me! Han Yi immediately said: "Of course this minister is willing, but I have signed contracts with many merchants in this regard. If you hand over these secret recipes to Your Majesty, even if I breach the contract, I may be sued. Please ask Your Majesty to be polite to me and give me a way out."

Li Zhi was very disappointed and said, "That's it! OK, I can't bear to let Han Aiqing, you are in prison."

Han Yi shouted with a cursing heart: "Your Majesty is so kind, and I am grateful."

Feng Feilou!

"My benefactor, what did you say? We--we want to hand over the printing technology and paper to the court?"

Sang Mu was frightened when he heard the news.

Han Yi nodded.

Shen Gui's face was blue and said, "Brother Han, you can't do this. These are the lifeblood of our gold store. Once you hand it over, vouchers will surely spread, and our gold store will be completely over."

The secret recipe for Jinxing lies in paper and ink. If you hand over these two things, anyone can pirate them.

Han Yi smiled and said, "Old Shen, you don't think I didn't even think of this. The paper of the voucher and the paper used for writing on weekdays are not the same. I will only present the best paper and ink to the court, which will not have any impact on the gold industry. As for printing, even if Your Majesty doesn't want it, I will hand it over to the court sooner or later. After all, printing is beneficial to the country and the people, and should not be taken for myself. In addition, if you hand it over to the court, the books in the library will be printed by the court, which will save me a lot of trouble. Otherwise, I will have to donate it free of charge."

This paper is really Han Yi's strength, and he can play with it. After all, he has a very in-depth understanding of counterfeit coins. Although the current technology is not enough to support him in making RMB, he can take out a little of it just enough for contemporary counterfeiters to drink a pot. Therefore, he will give the court a little of it, which will not affect his financial achievements.

Shen Gui breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If this is the case, it would be fine!"

Han Yi smiled and said, "Okay! Hurry up and send out the news from the library so that those poor families will not wander around at my doorstep every day. Oh, by the way, have Li Taishi's article column been prepared?"

Sang Mu said: "It's all done."

"Then let's send it together."

"knew."

"besides!"

Han Yi suddenly remembered something and said, "Have you finished rehearsing for the young Confucius 3?"

“It has been rehearsed long ago.”

"Okay, letting this news out is also very important to me."

"Um."

With the hard work of everyone, a new issue of the Tang Dynasty Daily finally appeared.

The most eye-catching thing is naturally that Li Zhi will build a Royal Library under the Sixth Academy, and open a part of the royal collection for the world to read. This was exchanged for Han Yi's use of paper and ink and printing. Of course, he needs to get the benefits. Arranged under the Sixth Academy, which is equivalent to giving Sixth Academy a strong support. Everyone will know that this is related to Han Yi. It also reveals some details of the Library Pavilion. The Library Pavilion will be divided into four levels, the lowest level is that everyone can go to see it, and upwards are candidates, officials, princes and nobles.

In addition, there is also a book donation system. Anyone who donates can browse books up to the next level, and at least five books can start with them. This means that if you donate five books, you will be able to obtain hundreds of books.

This news undoubtedly injected a shot of a heart-boosting agent into the poor. If the poor are not short of money, they are short of books. The emergence of the library is equivalent to narrowing the starting point between the poor and the gentry.

The poor family was immediately excited, and our leader was not disappointing. You should know that in ancient times, public books were like beautiful women taking off their clothes and showing them to you. There was a beautiful woman in this book, which was really unimaginable in the past.

At the same time, the first column of Datang Daily appeared, which was the column of Li Chunfeng.

The content is mathematics.

In ancient China, mathematics was not valued, but Han Yi understood the importance of mathematics, so he could not be left behind. He transformed all of Li Chunfeng's content into mathematical formulas of later generations and placed it in the Tang Dynasty Daily. The content of this issue was pi. Pi was not calculated by Li Chunfeng, but Zu Chongzhi. It was just that Li Chunfeng gave detailed annotations and calculations. Of course, Han Yi changed it on this basis to make the calculation formula more easy to understand.

However, this is just a very simple formula, which can be said to be the enlightenment of pi. Mathematics must go from shallow to deep, otherwise it will cause people to lose interest.

Also, the young Confucius 3 will start selling tickets in two days.

At the same time, the colleges under the Queen Wu Charity Education Foundation have also started construction.
