Zhu Youxiao, male, 31 years old, native of Jinling, was born in six years...

Yu Zhigan looked at Zhu Youxiao's information and couldn't help but sigh. This guy is really a natural carpenter. He could improve his farm tools by himself at the age of twelve. At the age of 16, he was recommended by the state officials to work as a minor official in the Ministry of Works. It has been fifteen years since then.

In the past fifteen years, this guy invented a lot of things, such as the chair Yu Zhi was sitting on. This thing was created by this guy. It can be said that with this guy's contribution, don't be a minister of the Ministry of Works, at least it's okay to be a minister of the Ministry of Works.

But this guy doesn't like to be an official, so he likes to think about it and can't stay there. He was once promoted to a sixth-rank official, but this guy didn't show up for half a month when he was studying something. It happened to be an assessment by the Ministry of Personnel, so he was beaten to the end.

Later, he was promoted, but this guy remained unchanged and liked to hang out with craftsmen to think about it. Over time, everyone got used to it. No one was specifically promoting him. Instead, many people used his reforms to get promoted and raise salaries to marry a rich and beautiful woman, reaching the peak of their lives.

Zhu Youxiao followed Yu Zhi to work, and there were nine other craftsmen. To be honest, the novel always said that the status of craftsmen is relatively low, but in fact it is nonsense. Which of these craftsmen in the Ministry of Works looks like poor people?

The status of craftsmen is low? Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce are the third. Compared with farmers, craftsmen are richer because they have craftsmanship. Not to mention the craftsmen who are employed in the Ministry of Works, they will have some extra income, and the family of three may have a lot of surplus.

In addition, some folk craftsmen farmed during busy farming and went out to work for people in their spare time, made chairs and iron, and their income was much higher than that of farmers chopping wood.

And when you go out to work for people, you are still in charge of food. There are so many craftsmen who can basically support everyone and have a surplus. So there may be some things like workers who are not full, don’t wear warm clothes, etc., but it is definitely not all. There is nothing wrong with the saying that craftsmen cannot starve to death.

"Your Highness, what are we going to do?"

"I'll know when I arrive at the East Palace!"

Yu Zhigan kept thinking about what to engrave first. It seemed that there was a book in ancient times called Shuowen Jie, which contained most common words.

More than ten minutes later, when he returned to the East Palace, Yu Zhigan brought these craftsmen to the front hall. Chen Wansan, the slut, also appeared in front of Yu Zhigan, and looked at the group of craftsmen in front of him with curiosity.

"Wansan, please prepare some wood!"

"Your Highness, what wood do you want?"

"First find all the things you can find, by the way, I'm looking for a few books that explain the words and explain words!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

At this time, Zhu Youxiao had already guessed what Yu Zhigan was going to do, and his brows frowned slightly: "Your Highness, are you going to prepare a printed version?"

The so-called printing plate is the current printing plate.

However, this thing needs to be engraved with a page of the book and then printed according to the number of pages. After the book is printed, the board is almost ruined. This group of people had never thought about disassembling the words on the board one by one and reorganizing them.

"Well, it's a little different from the traditional ones, it's a new type!"

Yu Zhigan had asked before, but there is no movable type printing yet, and he has mastered the core technology. As expected, only by mastering the core technology can he make money.

"oh?"

Zhu Youxiao looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, his eyes were full of disbelief. As a carpenter, Zhu Youxiao felt that he was successful and he enjoyed the sense of accomplishment of making something. Zhu Youxiao felt that even if he was letting him be an emperor, he would not be as comfortable as a carpenter.

As a professional carpenter, he didn't believe that His Royal Highness could improve printing technology. After all, in his opinion, there was nothing that needed to be improved, and it was already considered perfect.

Soon, Chen Wansan handed over a book of Shuowen Jie, which had fallen into pieces: "Your Highness, this one is the book, I have sent someone to buy it!"

"Don't, get it back, one book is enough. What about that Lu Bu, let him come over, and you can't keep an idle person. Go and let him come over!"

"Here!"

"By the way, is the wood ready?"

"It's ready!"

"Okay, Zhu Youxiao, come with me, I'll tell you what you want to do!"

"Yes! Your Highness!"

Yu Zhigan took Zhu Youxiao and a few people to the courtyard. Yu Zhigan pointed to the wood and opened the book: "Do you know the words?"

Several carpenters looked at each other and finally shook their heads. They really didn't know anything.

"Well, that doesn't matter. Can you carve it out when you look at the words on it?"

Several carpenters looked at it and nodded immediately. As carpenters, they had carved the printed versions, and they could carve them out as long as they saw the number of words, without any difficulty.

"That's fine, I need you to carve such big words!"

After saying that, Yu Zhigan drew a small square on a piece of wood: "I ask you to divide these wood into these small pieces and carve the words on it!"

"Your Highness, we cannot understand what you mean!"

"Zhu Youxiao, you should first divide these wood into such a large shape, slightly thicker!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Zhu Youxiao took out his tools. The carpenters of this era have a comprehensive range of tools, including saws, planes and other things.

Soon, a small piece of wooden block turned into small square blocks in Zhu Youxiao's hands.

"Now, it's not difficult to engrave a word on a wooden block, right?"

The group of carpenters looked at the small wooden blocks that were about the thickness of middle fingers and nodded. These group of carpenters are the kings of carpenters. They can do it even if they have a smaller index finger!

"Very good, each of you, be responsible, carve it on different wooden boards, each of you first carve five words! Use different woods!"

After saying that, Yu Zhigan divided the words on the book on the first page.

After hearing this, the carpenters took out their tools and began to prepare to saw the wood, while Zhu Youxiao was preparing to start engraving.

"Hey, why are you so stupid? Division of labor and cooperation, division of labor and cooperation!"

Yu Zhigan patted his head, as if the assembly line work system had been developed in the Qin Dynasty, but it was lost later.

"Well, your highness, what do you mean?"

These carpenters stared at Yu Zhidian, and were a little confused about what Yu Zhidian was going to do.

"You, you, you, and you, and you, come and engrave the wooden blocks from Zhu Youxiao. You two measure the wooden blocks, and you two cut them. You will separate the woods and peel them!"

"Uh, Your Highness, but we, each of us..."

"Wouldn't it be better for those who engrave letters to help them carve more? In this way, some people engrave letters and some people provide wooden blocks. You don't have to do all your life alone. Do you understand?"

"Uh, I don't understand!"

"Assembly, assembly line! Do you understand, assembly line!"

"Your Highness, but now there are only five people engraving words, and we can engrave words ten of us at the same time!"

“…”

Yu Zhigan found that the heads of these carpenters were a little dull, including Zhu Youxiao, and they were not flexible and flexible. He couldn't help but sigh. He really couldn't convince them. They were right. How could five people engrave their letters faster than ten people engrave them!

"Forget it, let it be as you please, all the words are distributed to you, you can speed up!"

After Yu Zhigan finished speaking, he left immediately, and at the same time he began to think about how to print movable type!

First of all, it is definitely not possible to just write. They need to be typed, otherwise, they will be dispersed as soon as they are touched. How can they be put into production?

Moreover, Yu Zhigan remembers that the large-scale application of movable type printing seems to be burnt characters, rather than words engraved on wood!

Now Yu Zhigan regrets a little. In the summer of that year, when he was in class, he should study hard and write down everything he had given to him. After traveling through time, he would become a great inventor!

But now, Yu Zhigan had nothing in his mind except brothels and girls, and was empty and could not remember anything at all.

"Come on, you can do it, you must still remember a lot of things!"

Yu Zhigan kept touching his head, hoping that in this way, the obstacles that hindered his memory could be removed, but the effect did not look very good. At least, Yu Zhigan's brain is still blank now.

"Have it!"

Just when Yu Zhi was at a loss, a sudden flash of inspiration flashed and suddenly became enlightened, just like a constipated person, suddenly feeling refreshed. People who had been constipated for a long time suddenly felt unobstructed, and inspiration was constantly born from their minds!

"I'm really a genius!"

Yu Zhigan praised himself and only needed to open four card slots around the characters. In this way, some characters can be arranged using wooden boards, so that they don’t have to worry about the characters being dispersed when printing.

In addition, you can also use methods such as clamping and tenons, which are the basic skills of carpenters and cannot be impossible.

"Your Highness!"

Just when Yu Zhigan was inspiration like a diaper, and even thought about how to make ice in summer, he suddenly called out Your Highness and pulled Yu Zhigan back to reality.

I saw Lu Bu looking at Yu Zhigan sleepily, and couldn't help but yawn.

When Yu Zhigan saw this guy, he was so angry that he was so angry that he ate his own and lived in the Eastern Palace that he lived more comfortably than himself! If it weren't for his Diao Chan's sister, Yu Zhigan would have wished he could drive this guy out.

Holding his anger, Yu Zhigan kept reminding himself, holding back, and after he tricked Diao Chan, he kicked this damn guy away!

"Your Highness?"

Lu Bu asked Yu Zhigan again, but he didn't understand that Yu Zhigan called him over and didn't speak.

"Come here!"

After taking a few deep breaths, Yu Zhigan waved his hand and walked outside with Lu Bu.

"You will copy this book ten!"

"Your Highness is talking about the word "Wenjie"? It is very common on the market. If you are urgent, you can ask someone to buy a few copies!" Lu Bu picked up the book and looked at Yu Zhigan in confusion.

"If you want to copy, just copy it, you will talk so much nonsense!"

After Yu Zhigan finished speaking, he left Lu Bu and returned to his study.

"Here!"

When Lu Bu was about to take the book away, Zhu Youxiao instantly grabbed him: "What are you doing?"

"You didn't see Your Highness asking me to copy books!"

"Your Highness let us carve according to the words in the book, and you will put the book down for me!"

"Your Highness asked me to copy books!"

“…”
Chapter completed!
