In the famine, she stockpiled space supplies and became a bandit.

Luo Xi walked over and checked them one by one. There were paper books and bamboo slips. Many of the books had annotations written on them, which should have been written by Si Jia after reading them. Obviously, these were all Si Jia's own collection of books.

"This, this, this is a unique copy from the previous dynasty." Beside him, Yin Li carefully picked up a copy and flipped through it gently, looking excited.

"Master, I heard that this book was only available in the Imperial Palace or the Imperial Academy. I never thought that thanks to you, I would be able to see it one day."

Luo Xi suddenly felt mixed emotions. They had only met a few times, but she didn't expect Si Jia to...

"Thank you." She said sincerely.

In ancient times when studying was extremely difficult, Si Jia was willing to take out so many books, which showed that she valued her very much.

Si Jia didn't care at all: "It's okay, the boss opened the academy to benefit the people, I'm very happy that I can help a little."

"Besides, I have read these books many times. I can recite them by heart, but I have memorized most of their contents. It doesn't matter if I have the books or not."

Since he said so, Luo Xi no longer kept a distance with him and asked the guard to move the book to her study. However, if a new paper copy of the book was printed in time, she could return a copy to him.

In return, Luo Xi invited several people to visit the bookstore together.

Si Jiagui was the son of the right prime minister, so he had naturally seen a lot of new things, but he had never seen movable type printing before. Naturally, he was very happy to follow.

Once we arrived at the place, everyone was shocked by the bookshop's assembly line production method.

One process per person?

How did you come up with this?

In this way, not only the production efficiency is improved, but also the technology leakage can be prevented to the greatest extent. It is really a good idea.

Several people bowed to Chu Zhe: "Sir, you are indeed a talented person."

Chu Zhe: "..."

Si Jia flipped through the printed books and saw only a single copy of the Three Character Classic. After thinking for a while, he asked Luo Xi: "Boss, I see that when printing these books, you have to write the characters first and then carve them on the clay model."

He picked up the white paper that had just been produced, wrote a word, and handed it to Luo Xi to read: "I wonder if I can stay and help write?"

Luo Xi looked at the traditional Chinese characters on the paper, which looked more beautiful than those typed on the computer, and was silent for a long time.

He has a good family background, good looks and good talents.

"Cough!" Chu Zhe put his fist to his lips to hide his smile, then coughed lightly, signaling her to stop being dazed.

Luo Xi sighed and nodded: "Then I'll trouble you. Yin Li is a bit overwhelmed by herself."

Si Jia understood the meaning in Luo Xi's eyes, and a smile flashed across his clear eyes.

Thinking of the many books in the study, Luo Xi and Yin Li said, "When they build the academy, add a library and put all the books we print in it."

"As long as you are a student studying there, you can go in and read books or borrow them within a certain period of time. I think it should be very popular."

It will be more than popular. It will probably be overcrowded. Si Jia and Yin Li looked at each other. As scholars, they knew best how crazy writers can be in order to read a good book.

The two of them immediately decided not to go back, so they picked up paper and pen and started to get busy.

Luo Xi found it very funny and had to go back and ask Liu Xiaoyu to deliver breakfast to them at the bookstore.

Luo Xi himself, together with Chu Zhe, picked out some books that could be taken out of the space, prepared to translate them into classical Chinese, and printed them out and put them in the library.

Add to that the books that Luo Xi stole from the bandits' den when he first came to Apocalypse, and you have to say, this library is really well run.

"I used to think that you were going to die soon and it was a waste of time for you to pick up these things. Who would have thought that one day they would be useful." Chu Zhe picked up the book at hand and flipped through it, laughing.

This thing may be left gathering dust in modern times, but in ancient times when knowledge was relatively scarce, it became a treasure.

Luo Xi didn't even raise his head, and quickly wrote something on the paper: "They say that there are unexpected events in the world, but none of you believe it. Look, some rags are not necessarily rags."

Seeing her proud look, Chu Zhe smiled and said, "The captain is worthy of being the captain. His vision is naturally longer-term than ours."

Luo Xi raised his head and glanced at him: "Stop talking nonsense and write quickly."

"Got it." Sure enough, he was still as fierce as before. Chu Zhe sighed and spread out the book, but did not write: "Do you think we can still go back?"

Luo Xi's writing hand stopped for a moment, and he raised his head and looked at Chu Zhe with a puzzled look.

"You... don't like it here?" she asked.

Although there has been little rain recently in Apocalypse, there has been famine, and the court has been somewhat inactive, it is still much better than the apocalypse with zombie monsters running all over the place.

go back?

Luo Xi really hadn't thought about it.

Chu Zhe was stunned for a moment: "No, I just asked."

After a while, he said, "What's the point of going back? Our relatives are gone, and it's been so long, so we don't know how the deputy captain is doing."

His voice was full of bitterness.

Luo Xi lowered her eyelids, and her emotions could not be seen. After a while, she said, "Okay, get back to work. Can a grown man stop whining like that?"

"This kind of thing is not something we can decide. We might be wiped out by some natural or man-made disaster tomorrow."

Chu Zhe: "..."

"Captain, can you please not be so aggressive?" He even cursed himself.

Luo Xi ignored him and picked up a pen to copy quickly.

After more than half a month, all the books needed were basically printed, and the academies in various places were basically completed.

Originally, the construction of the academy was not so fast. In order to save time and money, Luo Xi directly asked them to find an existing villa and make some modifications to it. In addition, with more manpower and material resources invested, it was naturally faster.

However, the outcome is this.

Rong Bai ran to Luo Xi's study with a sad face and looked at her accusingly: "Boss, can you please stop being such a spendthrift? Look at this, look at this."

He threw an account book in front of Luo Xi and said angrily: "It's only been a short time and you've already spent so much money. If you continue like this, Chaoyang Villa will be squandered by you."

Luo Xi calmly turned to the total amount and took a look. It was still a lot less than the budget, so it was okay.

"Silver must be spent if it is earned, otherwise it is no different from stone."

Luo Xi glanced over and said, "As I recall, the biggest prodigal son in Tongning County is you, Rong Bai. You also said that you would spend all the money of the Rong family before you die. You said that, didn't you?"

Rong Bai: "..."

I was speechless for a moment.

Finally, it was quiet. Luo Xi told Wei Qing: "Send the news of our academy's enrollment immediately."

After Wei Qing agreed, she called Xiao Yi over again and said, "These books are of great importance. You must deliver them to the academies safely. There must be no mistakes."

Xiao Yi clasped his hands together, his expression serious: "Please rest assured, Boss, I will definitely regard them as more important than my own life."

That's not the case. Luo Xi smiled and said, "You guys should also pay attention to your own safety."
