When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 614 Peasant Woman 42
At the same time, Tan You finally led people to make movable type printing and woodblock printing. Although movable type printing is convenient, it requires careful checking every time the typesetting is done.

It is more suitable for printing those unique copies.

As for woodblock printing, as long as there is a template, its printing speed is faster than movable type printing. Of course, it also has its disadvantages, that is, it has extremely high requirements for the template, and it is easy to damage the template if you are not careful.

Both have their advantages and disadvantages, but it must be said that with these two printing techniques, the production efficiency of the printing workshop was immediately improved. Soon, the news that Youzhou books were of high quality and low price spread with the caravan.

This news was naturally known to countless people, especially the imperial court and the major families. After two years, although the imperial court was weak, it was located in the hinterland, so it naturally kept an eye on the surrounding news.

For example, north of Yunzhou, after defeating the Beirong Army, the imperial court had proposed to recruit Tan You. Everyone could see the power of gunpowder. If there was gunpowder, it would be easy to suppress the rebellion of the surrounding rebels.

But where there are people, there will be conflicts of interest, so this proposal was naturally rejected. But today, it is no longer possible to recruit them. Tan You has recovered the area north of the grassland. The area of ​​Yunzhou, Youzhou, Dingzhou, and Linzhou alone, plus the grassland, the area of ​​the territory controlled by Tan You is enough to make everyone in the court jealous.

Of course, the imperial court also sent people to recruit the envoys, but what was the result? The envoys were driven out of Youzhou and even robbed. As for whether it was the people of Youzhou who did it, is there any need to say?
However, Tan You never claimed the title of king. After taking back the grassland, she became quiet. All affairs were still handled by her eldest daughter, while she herself went to the workshop.

This news naturally could not be hidden from others. In such a large area, there would always be spies from all directions. Especially now that there were so many caravans going to Youzhou, such news would naturally spread with the caravans.

The prime minister said in a serious voice: "The price of books has dropped. There will be more and more readers in the world in the future. After this incident, Youzhou will become a holy place for poor students."

The Minister of Rites also said: "Especially the four sentences, which almost point out the future direction for scholars."

Officials from the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Personnel could not help but frown, "From now on, studying is no longer exclusive to the children of aristocratic families. This is too much of a way to win people's hearts."

This naturally infringed upon the interests of the aristocratic families, but what could these aristocratic families do? Would they go to Tan You to reason with him? If they dared to act, they would be attacked by all the poor students.

The emperor on the throne is a complete puppet. He just sits on the throne and watches the ministers below worrying. Is there any emperor in the world more miserable than him? Of course not. Any minister can almost ride on his head.

The emperor yawned in boredom. He was a puppet, not a fool. Now he hoped that Tan You could establish his own territory and clean up this mess as soon as possible.

As for himself, he didn't want to live anyway. The reason why he was a puppet now was simply because he wanted to see the final outcome.

Discussions about affordable books are still happening in countless places across this land, and the most excited are naturally the common students. For common students who want to make progress, money is the first barrier in front of them.

Even if one has plenty of money, there is no way to get rid of the status of a commoner. Because there was no imperial examination in this era, it was all about recommendation. Officials were selected from aristocratic families, which completely cut off the path for common people to strive for advancement.

Thus, there is a huge gap between common people and noble families, and it was drawn unilaterally by the noble families. Now that I heard that Youzhou has affordable books, and even many rare books, how can this not make common students excited? Moreover, Tan You just didn't become the king, but the area of ​​the territory she controls is now the largest among the heroes.

At the same time, the Yunzhou Army was the most elite and disciplined army. Its record was also very brilliant. It once defeated the Northern Rong with less than 10,000 troops. Even with the help of the power of gunpowder, it was still a battle in which the few defeated the many, and it is still talked about with great relish.

With a strong military and a large territory, they are now showing signs of thirsting for talent...

Therefore, countless scholars flocked to Youzhou. In addition to seeking knowledge from books, they also intended to find a way to change their origins in Youzhou.

What can Chen Xi do? Of course she will open the city gates to welcome them. With the arrival of these scholars, she has a lot more people to use. A Niang said that it is not scary for others to have small thoughts, as long as you grasp their weaknesses and lure them with benefits, it will be enough.

Chen Xi did the same thing. Since scholars wanted affordable books and wanted to gain more knowledge, she specially invited the great scholars of Luming Academy to give public lectures.

This open class is not free, you have to exchange points for it. How do you get points? You can get them by doing things for the government office or making suggestions to the government office.

The simplest way is to go to each village and teach the people about literacy.

In short, if students want to survive in Youzhou, they must use their abilities to obtain it. Although it is a bit harsh, it is already a great opportunity for those students.

After all, most people will not cherish things that come for free. It is much easier here than in other places. At least as long as you have the ability, you can always survive in Youzhou in the end.

For example, some people used their own abilities to get a clerical job in the government office. Although it was not a formal job under the imperial court, it was already very good.

Tan You has been reluctant to declare himself king, and Youzhou has been doing so much, so everyone can see what Tan You is up to. If she doesn't declare herself king, then everyone has no reason to attack her, but it's not easy to take over Yunzhou and Youzhou, because the Yunzhou army is really too difficult to deal with.

Two years passed in a flash, and the area north of Yunzhou became a paradise. Outside Yunzhou, people were living in poverty. Countless people migrated to Yunzhou, hoping to settle down there.

The princes were so blood-thirsty that they had no time to care about the people under their control. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a land of suffering and misery.

Chen Xi was more compassionate: "Mother, those people are so pitiful. It is so difficult to survive in troubled times."

Tan You was also upset, but no matter how upset she was, she had her own stance: "If we had rushed in before, we would have only become the target of everyone's fire. Yunzhou and Youzhou have been governed so well until now, and it's not easy for everyone to live a stable life. If the war breaks out again, it will bring them countless disasters."
