Chapter 1768 Gu Yundong is a lucky star
Shao Qingyuan turned around and went back to the room. After a while, he came out with the box that Gu Yundong had brought in earlier.
Everyone suddenly realized, yes, why did they forget that before the Yongjia County Lord entered the door, he did have such a box in his hand.
Yes, this box is so small, does it really have such a big effect?
Shao Qingyuan looked left and right, this courtyard is still inconvenient, "Let's go to the lobby and talk."
So everyone followed the Bai family to the lobby one after another. When the scholars in the three rooms saw this, they looked at each other for a while, but in the end, their thirst for knowledge overcame their timidity, and they followed, but they were standing at the outermost periphery. of.
Shao Qingyuan put the box on the table and took out the contents.
Yi Zilan and Bai Yong, the old prince and the three of them stepped forward immediately, each of them stretched out his hand to take it, put it under his eyelids and looked at it carefully.
"This is……"
"It really is a printing mold."
"But this seems to be word by word."
Gu Yundong explained, "This is called movable type printing, which is an improvement of the woodblock printing we have seen before. Movable type printing is to make commonly used characters first, then place them on an iron plate, and start typesetting according to the words in our books. This may not be very convenient for one or two books, but if you print hundreds or thousands of copies, it works wonders."
"That's right, that's right." The old man nodded again and again, his heart was full of admiration, and his eyes were full of light, "This thing is wonderful, it's easy to use glue to carve characters, even if those rare characters don't exist, you can make one on the spot. ."
Yi Zilan laughed, "Tsk tsk tsk, Yongjia County Master, it seems that the emperor is right, you are indeed the lucky star of our Jin Dynasty. Look, this magnifying glass has just been made, and movable type printing will come soon, look. The title of this county master is indeed well deserved. Keep working hard and do more meaningful things for my Jin Dynasty in the future."
Gu Yundong, "..." You treat me as a donkey or a horse, and you have to do your best?
If this guy hadn't made up his mind this time, she wouldn't have brought this thing out in advance.
Someone asked curiously, "Your Highness, I was curious before, what is the magnifying glass mentioned in the imperial edict?"
Yi Zilan instantly became interested, put the clay typeface in her hand carefully, and then took out a magnifying glass from her body.
"That's it."
Shao Qingyuan glanced at him, and put this thing on his chest at will, not afraid of accidentally breaking and cutting himself.
Gu Yundong also glanced at it, um... it still looks like it, and it has two mirrors, and there is a curved copper glasses frame in the middle, and there are jewels and jade on it.
Gu Yundong, "..." I know that you pursue beauty, but this is not necessary.
She stroked her forehead, Yi Zilan had already introduced it over there.
"This is a magnifying glass, which can magnify the fonts on the book. This thing is very suitable for readers and people who are old and have poor eyesight."
As soon as ?? heard that it was suitable for scholars, those students who were originally in the periphery crowded into it one after another, and they didn’t even care about their identities.
And the old man, whose eyes are really not very good at his age, even took the magnifying glass directly, opened a book on the table and read it seriously.
"This thing is good, this thing is too good."
Yi Zilan was proud, but he didn't take the credit, he just pointed at Gu Yundong, "She also gave it."
