Chapter 290 Printing
Wen Qingcheng was in a good mood after solving the problem. She said happily, "If we can successfully stir up public opinion this time, it means that this method is feasible and can be used in the future. We can write policies and decrees, literary poems, and store advertisements on it. We can charge the merchants for advertising. As for the printing place of the "newspaper", we will choose our Yueya Village School, and the money earned can be used as the public expenses of the school."
Wen Zhuo's eyes sparkled, but then he looked worried. "It's a pity that this kind of thing can only copy the same content in batches. It's too troublesome to find someone to carve stone tablets every time, and the cost is high. There are 365 days in a year, do we have to carve hundreds of stone tablets?"
Wen Qingcheng smiled and winked at him, "Who said that? If you really want to use this method, you can use movable type printing."
Seeing everyone's confused faces, Wen Qingcheng hurriedly explained: "Movable type printing is to carve the required text on small wooden blocks to make movable type. When using it, different movable types are arranged on a flat plate to form a page layout, and printing freedom can be achieved."
Wen Zhuo clapped his hands and said, "Great, great! Books are valuable because they are handwritten. If we can realize this method, we can print books in the future, and the price will be much cheaper."
When Ye Xiuying heard Wen Zhuo say this, her eyes were red with excitement, "If we had the printing technology back then, your father wouldn't have to save money to buy books."
Wen Zhuo was overjoyed, "I never thought Qingcheng was such a genius. She actually had such ideas about these wonderful things."
"That's all for later. Let's print 5,000 copies of the newspaper first. Today, the three of us plus Wen Yufeng, the four of us will start cutting the paper. When the characters are engraved the day after tomorrow, we'll start printing."
During the next two days of waiting for the letter board, Wen Qingcheng went to the Qihuang Patriarch Association. The clerk there said that the matter had been reported to the Qihuang Patriarch Association in the prefectural city and was under investigation. Because Wang Ji's head office was in the prefectural city, this matter would definitely alarm the Qihuang Patriarch Association in the prefectural city.
Wen Qingcheng cut paper day and night, and even Yinfu would come to the rooftop garden of the Wen family at night to help Wen Qingcheng cut paper.
Soon, five thousand sheets of paper were cut, and Wen Zhuo got back the two identical plates as scheduled. Wen Qingcheng divided them into two groups and started to make rubbings. One group was Wen Qingcheng and Ye Xiuying, and the other was Wen Zhuo and Wen Yufeng. Each group took a plate, one responsible for applying ink and the other for covering the paper for rubbings.
Ye Xiuying has been busy from morning till night, and she also has to cook and take care of the children. Wen Qingcheng comes to the roof garden with a writing board and asks for help from Yinfu. Normally, she shouldn't trouble Yinfu, but Wen Qingcheng knows very well that if she delays, something bad will happen. She has to tell the truth to the public as soon as possible and dominate public opinion. Otherwise, with Wang Ji's influence, even if Wen Ji is the victim in this matter, it will be very disadvantageous to Wen Ji.
The whole family worked together and printed 5,000 copies of the "newspaper" in just two days. Wen Qingcheng asked Ye Xiuying to order a small table from the village restaurant and invited Wen Zhuo's family and Wen Yufeng, who was recuperating in the backyard, to have a small gathering. They had been cutting paper and printing for the past few days, and everyone was very busy. Although Wen Yufeng was not Wen Qingcheng's sister or friend, they were currently in a strategic partnership and an ordinary doctor-patient relationship, but she also helped, so she had to be invited as well.
After dinner, Wen Qingcheng moved the carriage to the front yard and moved the printed and dried "newspapers" into bundles onto the carriage.
Afterwards, Wen Qingcheng saw that Ye Xiuying and Zicheng had returned to their rooms, so she went to the roof garden, waved at the air, and shouted twice. The next second, the hidden bat ignored gravity, tapped its toes, and landed steadily on the edge of the roof.
"Brother, please be careful, okay? I know you are good at Qinggong, but I am scared when you stand so far to the side."
Hidden Bat smiled softly and walked towards Wen Qingcheng. "Are you still printing the "newspaper" today?"
"The newspaper has been printed. I know you are good at light work. It's like you can fly in the dark night. I can't find anyone who can match your speed in the whole Da Qi..."
Yinfu crossed his arms across his chest. Seeing that Wen Qingcheng was getting more and more exaggerated, he quickly reached out to stop her, "Alright, alright, just tell me what you want me to do."
Wen Qingcheng scratched his head embarrassedly. "I want you to accompany me to the county tonight to get these 'newspapers' we printed earlier. You are good at Qinggong, so you can stand on a high place and scatter them. I want everyone in the county to receive this 'newspaper' tomorrow morning."
"Just stay home, I'll go by myself."
"This is my job, please help me. It would be embarrassing if I did nothing."
Hidden Bat sneered, "You still feel embarrassed? What do you have to be embarrassed about? The city is under curfew now. If you follow me out, you will only be in the way."
Wen Qingcheng then remembered that there was a curfew in the Great Qi Dynasty. If she ran into a night patrolman while driving her carriage on the streets of the county town, she would be in trouble.
"Okay, then you'll have to work hard alone. I won't let you work in vain. I'll give you a tael of silver as a thank you gift."
"The master sent me to protect you. It would be wrong for me to take your money privately."
"This is a thank-you gift I give you voluntarily. If you're worried that Brother Mo won't like it, I won't tell him." As he spoke, Wen Qingcheng took out a tael of silver from his bosom and handed it over.
Hidden Bat crossed his arms across his chest and didn't answer. "Do you really have to calculate everything so clearly?"
"I will never let my friends suffer." Wen Qingcheng said seriously.
Yinfu smiled and said, "Okay, put the money away quickly. I don't want Yunpeng to think that I'm making extra money. I accept your kindness. I'll run a trip for you tonight."
Yinfu insisted on not accepting it, so Wen Qingcheng had no choice but to give up and thank him. "I put all the things on the carriage, and the carriage is parked in the yard."
"I see. You should go to bed early. Your newspaper will be seen on every street and alley in the county tomorrow..." Before he finished speaking, Yinfu had already jumped down from the roof and landed steadily on the shaft of the carriage.
"I'll open the door for you." Wen Qingcheng shouted downstairs, walked quickly down the stairs outside the wall, and ran to the front door to open it.
Xiao Hei followed behind Wen Qingcheng, wagging his tail. When he saw Yinfu driving the carriage, he went up to smell it, then looked at Yinfu and then at Wen Qingcheng.
After sending Yinfu away, Wen Qingcheng closed the gate again, took a shower, put on a headscarf, and waited in the yard for Yinfu to come back.
Hidden Bat's trip was smooth, he took a shortcut into the city and didn't encounter any night watchmen along the way. He flew over the shops and houses in the county town with a few bundles of "newspapers" in his hands, scattering "newspapers" like white snowflakes falling from the night sky.
Less than an hour later, Wen Qingcheng heard the sound of horse hooves outside the yard. Xiao Hei had heard the noise long ago and ran to the gate, wagging his tail desperately.
Wen Qingcheng opened the gate and went out, closed the door, jumped on the carriage, and went to the east gate of Wen Ji in the backyard with Yinfu. After opening it with the key, he led the horse to the stable in the backyard.
After locking the door to the backyard, Wen Qingcheng suggested, "You've been running all over the county tonight, you must be tired, why don't you sleep in the east wing of the front yard? Brother Falcon used to live there."
"No need. I'm hiding in the dark to protect you. Go back to sleep and don't worry about me." After Yinfu finished speaking, he disappeared in a flash. He hid in the dark and only felt relieved when he saw Wen Qingcheng enter the house. He took a short rest.
