The success of the sale in Yizhou and Jiangdong gave Huang Chong and Li Gui a lot of confidence. Using the most high-end books to make the families in these two places obediently take out the money is simply too cool.

Anyway, if the money is left in the hands of the family, it will still be used by Liu Bei and Sun Ce in the end.

Huang Chongdu wanted to earn all the money in Yizhou and Jiangdong, and weaken the strength of Yizhou and Jiangdong with commercial wars.

This is also what Liu Yu wants to see.

Think about the eagle sauce of later generations, giving other small countries economic sanctions and the like at every turn, and wielding the big stick in his hand straight away. Liu Yu now also wants to use all the tricks he can use to plot against Jiangdong and Yizhou.

Under Liu Yu's hint, the papermaking workshop of the "dark department" has been fully activated, and the paper is constantly being made.

At the same time, the technology of engraving printing is getting better and better, and Liu Yu took out all the books in his imperial study as the original version.

Part of the money earned from selling high-end books before was also directly used by Liu Yu to make books.

Papermaking is polluting the environment, and it has not been discovered before when the scale was small and the output was small. Now that the output and scale have gone up, the disadvantages have slowly appeared.

Although papermaking is very important, Liu Yu does not want to damage the environment and leave hidden dangers for future generations. Liu Yu has put in place a number of measures to prevent the spread of pollution.

The appearance of the booklet made this time is not as decorated with silk and gold silk as before, and the paper inside is not of high grade, not as white as before. It is precisely these books that Liu Yu wants and needs the most. Because of the low cost and inexpensive, almost most people can buy it.

Why was the family so rampant that it finally developed to threaten the imperial power? It is nothing more than that they have mastered the knowledge and the way to be officials. The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were all from a family, so even if there was a wise and martial emperor, if he wanted to reform the government, if he touched the interests of the family, it would cause a huge backlash.

Liu Yu just wants to change this situation and cut off the root of the family's development and growth.

Although it is known that one family has fallen, another family will rise. But what Liu Yu can do at present is to lay the groundwork for everything and give future generations more choices.

If Liu Yu wants to popularize books, and if he wants ordinary people to have books to read, he must use the power of the imperial court.

Now there are still the power of the big families in the court, and at the same time, Liu Yu also feels that courtiers like Fu Zhu, Chen Gong, and Tian Feng are also slowly developing into new families.

With their intelligence and eyesight, they must be able to see the purpose of Liu Yu's move clearly.

The people under my hands can't be trusted.

Liu Yu only realized at this time that as a strong emperor, he had to be cautious when making a decision, so what should he do if a mediocre emperor appeared in the future?

"It seems that if you want to promote, you have to use some brains." Liu Yu began to ponder. "These courtiers are all shrewd people, and I guess I know by now that I made these books. If that's the case, then I'll have a plan! ”

Liu Yu quickly thought of a way in his heart that all the courtiers couldn't refuse.

Liu Yu immediately called Li Gui and said something that others couldn't know.

And in the Taiwei Mansion, Cao Cao held a delicate book and kept flipping through it. He was surrounded by Guo Jia, Xun Yu, and Xun You.

Since Cao Cao became a lieutenant, several loyal followers of Cao Cao, such as Guo Jia, Xun Yu, and Xun You, joined Cao Cao's Taiwei Mansion by the way, and justifiably followed Cao Cao to eat mixed rice, and openly held the Yulu of the Shenwu Imperial Court. became Liu Yu's subordinate in disguise.

The book in Cao Cao's hand was bought by Xun Yu at a great price.

"My lord, such a book is really ingenious, if you know how to make it, it is definitely the gospel of the world's scholars and the society of the country." Xun You said.

As a wise man, Xun You can deduce that if such books are promoted, more people will have the opportunity to read, and the previous bamboo slips will be eliminated, speeding up the efficiency of the imperial court.

Xun Yu and Guo Jia have been staring at the book, and they seem to see something different.

"Gongda, who do you say owns this making festival?" Guo Jia said lightly.

"Fengxiao, why is this difficult? As long as the person who sells is arrested and questioned, he will naturally know. Xun You said very confidently.

Xun Yu glanced at Xun Yu, this guy is smart and confused for a while, the person who sells this kind of book is Huang Chong, the current uncle, you can know who it is at once.

"Gongda, this kind of book was bought in the shop of the current Uncle Cheng Enhou." Guo Jia reminded weakly.

Xun You didn't know if the eldest aunt was coming, so he didn't turn his mind around, and said directly: "In other words, this is owned by Uncle Guo, so it's even better." Shall I wait for Your Majesty to play and let him dedicate it? ”

Hearing Xun You's words, Cao Cao stopped reading the book and looked at Xun You with his eyes, as if he was puzzled by Xun You's IQ today.

Xun Yu had the urge to cover his forehead, Xun Yu was indeed embarrassed today.

Fortunately, Xun You really didn't come to affect his intelligence from his aunt, he quickly comprehended it, and said in surprise: "Could it be that this method of making is owned by that person?" ”

"It's fine! Gongda is finally normal. Guo Jia and Xun Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"My lord, I don't know what Your Majesty does like this, what is the deep meaning?" Xun Yu couldn't think of it himself.

Cao Cao said flatly: "Bo Xuan has always been erratic. In my opinion, this kind of book must be produced in large quantities and spread all over the world. It's unbelievable that it's so expensive! ”

Xun Yu and Xun You both fell into deep thought, in their impression, Liu Yunai is a Ming Jun, and he will do his best to do things that are beneficial to the world, and he will not hesitate too much. Now it's this kind of style, which makes them puzzled.

Guo Jia sat on the ground and drank wine.

With this expression, Cao Cao, who was familiar with Guo Jia, knew that he had guessed it, and said, "Fengxiao, if you continue to drink wine and pretend." Be careful that Captain Ben punishes you for not drinking for a year! ”

"My lord spares his life! I don't dare to do it again. Guo Jia said with a playful face.

Cao Cao knew that Guo Jia was joking, so he said, "Say, don't waste any time." ”

Xun You and Xun Yu both looked at Guo Jia.

Guo Jia straightened his shirt and said solemnly: "Lord, although after the battle with the Hu people, my Han has won, Wei Zhenyu." However, the victory of our Han this time consumed a lot of grain, grass and money, and now the treasury is a little empty. ”

After Guo Jia said this, Cao Cao, Xun Yu and others understood that Liu Yu did this in order to collect the money of those rich people. It's better to use this kind of method than to raid the family and exterminate the clan.

"As far as I know, there are about 500 books sold in Luoyang this time, and all of them have been sold, a full 10,000 gold!" Xun Yu smacked his tongue, 10,000 gold is a huge amount.

With 10,000 gold, then the operation of the imperial court can be relieved.

Guo Jia even said: "I thought that His Majesty's actions would not only be like this. Maybe there will be a next move. ”

"What's next?" Xun Yu, Xun You, and Cao Cao all read it.

Suddenly, Cao Cao's eyes showed a fine light, and then a smile spread all over his face.

"Haha! All right! It depends on what His Majesty does tomorrow. Cao Cao said with a smile.

In Luoyang City, there are many smart people who have guessed some clues, but they don't understand what the doorway is.

Soon it was the morning of the next day.

Liu Yu sat on the throne, and the Manchu civil and military were divided into two columns.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I heard today that a very beautiful book has appeared in Luoyang City, which is almost ingenious, and it is sold at a sky-high price! I don't know if there is such a thing? Liu Yu looked at everyone and asked.

Many people knew that Liu Yu would ask about this.

Luoyang Ling Youheng stood up and said, "Your Majesty, there has been this matter recently. This is the kind of beautiful book that Cheng Enhou is selling. ”

"Oh? That Zhengping, do you have a physical object for me to see? Liu Yu asked with interest.

"Your Majesty, the ministers are shy in their pockets and can't buy it!" You Heng is embarrassed, his income is high, but he usually has no financial mind, most of his income has been spent, and he can't buy a copy if he wants to. Twenty gold, how much is a month's worth for you?

Only You Heng has a huge thick-skinned face, saying that he is poor in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military.

The others also forced a smile, and You Heng's character that he said directly like this is really funny. At the same time, most of the courtiers were also very happy in their hearts, and many of them were angry with Youheng.

Liu Yu waved his hand to let You Heng go back, so that he would not continue to be embarrassed. You Heng retreated to his position a little embarrassed, then glared at those who were holding back a smile, silently wrote down their names in his heart, and said secretly: "You or your children must not break the law and discipline, otherwise this official will make you look good!" ”

Your wrath is unknown to others.

"Your Majesty, here's a copy here!" Li Gui took out a copy very quickly, and then respectfully handed it to Liu Yu.

Everyone else was stunned, they didn't expect Li Gui's movements to be so fast.

The five military ministers all looked at the singing and harmony between Liu Yu and Li Gui, and it was self-evident what they thought in their hearts.

Liu Yu took the book and pretended to say: "Top silk, gold silk strokes, and this snow-white jade-like paper!" It's ingenious! ”

Li Gui said solemnly: "Your Majesty, although this thing is precious! But it's expensive! Under the secret visit, the minister found that this thing belonged to the Marquis of Chengen! ”

"Uncle Guo owns!? How unreasonable! It's a very valuable thing! Uncle Guo actually used it for business! I think he's trying to rebel! Liu Yu pretended to be angry.

"Your Majesty is angry! Take care of your dragon! People who don't know still think that Liu Yu is really angry.

"Come on, arrest Huang Chong!" Liu Yu patted the royal table directly and said.

Cao Cao really wants to give Liu Yu a roll of his eyes, you are still acting in this acting.

The rest of them, like Fu Zhi and the others, were silent, silently watching Liu Yu go crazy.

"Your Majesty, the minister has invited Chengenhou over!" Li Gui said very respectfully.

"Bring it on!" Liu Yu is very serious.

After a while, Huang Chong came to the main hall very obediently, and knelt down to Liu Yu and said, "Chen Huang worships my emperor!" ”

"Huang Chong! You are guilty! Liu Yu said coldly.

"The minister is guilty! Ministers get a treasure! It should be reported to the imperial court, but it is used for its own selfishness. Now the ministers have woken up and given this method of production to the imperial court! Huang Chong's face was so sacred, and at the same time, he took out a book from his sleeve. This is the method of production, the details are in it, please Your Majesty to see! ”

Liu Yu nodded lightly and gestured to Li Gui. Li Gui hurriedly took the book in Huang Chong's hand and respectfully handed it to Liu Yu.

Liu Yu looked at it and said, "As the uncle of the country, you should serve the country. Usually forget it. With such a heavy treasure, how can it be done indiscriminately? I will not punish you, how can I explain to all the people of the world! ”

Huang Chong knelt on top of the main hall and kowtowed: "The minister knows that he is guilty of death, please punish His Majesty." ”

"Although you have made a small mistake, but you have offered a heavy treasure, I am not a mediocre king, I will punish you for a year and 10,000 gold to hand over to the treasury! What do you think? Liu Yu said.

"Your Majesty is wise!" What else can the courtiers say, the pace is so fast, they are overwhelmed.

"Thank you, Lord Ron!" Huang Chong said gratefully.

Liu Yu was very satisfied, and said to Li Gui: "Zhong Yun, I see that you are usually quite leisurely, I will now order you to make it for Daliang, responsible for supervising the creation of this thing, you must be serious, if you are a little slack, I will not spare you." ”

"Obey! The minister must live up to His Majesty's trust! Li Gui arched his hand.

Many courtiers are a little incomprehensible, which one is this playing.

Cao Cao knew in his heart that this was just the beginning of Liu Yu's actions.

Fu Zhu, Chen Gong and other wise men all looked at Liu Yu, and they were all trying to figure out Liu Yu's thoughts.

In fact, Liu Yu had such an action for Huang Chonghao. The promotion of paper is inevitable, and if people who have spent a lot of money know how cheap these books are in the future, they will definitely not give up with Huang Chongshan. Now that Huang Chong has been punished, it means that Huang Chong has been punished, and there is no way to say anything.

And let Li Gui be in charge of this matter, Liu Yu thought that he would have a name for expanding the scale in the future.

The output of one workshop is not enough, Liu Yu must expand a few more. It is not possible to hide it, it must be done openly.

This is also why Liu Yu will perform such a big play.

It's just that these things are just foreshadowing, and the next thing is the big one.

Liu Yu took the book and said silently: "Ladies and gentlemen, what can you see from this thing?" I'd love to hear from you. ”

"It's coming!" The courtiers' hearts tightened, this is the rhythm of His Majesty's routine.
