Traveling through the Tang Dynasty: Peerless Village Girl

Chapter 136 Woodblock Printing (2)
The carving workshop is very large, divided into carpentry, engraving, printing and other workshops. There are hundreds of workers in it. Each has a division of labor and supervisors, and the work is clearly divided.

Mo Feiyi was only interested in carving factories and printing factories. Zhang Chuanzong led the way, and a small official from the workshop accompanied him cautiously.

The workers in the engraving factory are engraving the characters carefully and attentively. They are all engraving the words on a square wooden board one by one. If they are a little distracted and make a wrong stroke or stroke, the entire engraving block will be invalid and have to start all over again. No wonder so many engravers are needed.

In the Tang Dynasty, woodblock printing was still used, and movable type printing was invented by Bi Sheng in the Song Dynasty.Mo Feiyi nodded thoughtfully, signaling to visit the printing factory again.

The workers in the printing factory apply printing ink to the engraving blocks, print them out one by one, and then bind the printed books into volumes. Therefore, the price of each volume is very expensive, and the poor cannot afford it at all. rise.

"Look at these, what's so interesting?" Li Jinnan originally thought there was something fun to do, but who would have thought that he would come to see these boring things, and he would be greatly disappointed.

Mo Feiyi shook his head with a wry smile, and asked Zhang Chuanzong: "Chuanzong, printing, you know how?"

Zhang Chuanzong nodded and replied: "Yes, Miss, do you want to..."

Mo Feiyi just smiled and didn't answer, which made him puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask.

Although, Miss is different from ordinary wealthy households, her temper is unbelievably good, but, as a servant, there are certain things that you should not ask, and you should not know what you should not say.

After leaving the carving workshop, Mo Feiyi stopped suddenly when he boarded the car, and said to Zhang Chuanzong, "Chuanzong, I heard that your wife is about to give birth?"

Zhang Chuanzong didn't know why the lady asked this question, and nodded hesitantly, "Yes, there are still about thirty or forty days left, mother, take care of her at home."

Mo Feiyi smiled and said: "Mo's house has a lot of new houses, why don't you move your whole family here, so that it will be easier to take care of."

Zhang Chuanzong couldn't help opening his mouth wide, and it took him a long time to react. He knelt down and kowtowed, "Miss..."

Mo Feiyi helped him up, smiled and said: "That's it, you go back and prepare first. After I go back, I will arrange a new house for your family."

Zhang Chuanzong wiped his tears and sobbed: "Miss, you are really kind to my Zhang family, woo woo..."

A big man suddenly cried bitterly in the street, causing passers-by to stop and watch, but most of them recognized that one of the beauties was Li Xiangye's daughter, the famous Chang'an tigress, and they were so frightened that they hurriedly rubbed their feet with oil and ran away.
