The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 508 Xiaowei's Studying Notes ([-])
In the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms era, what is the concept of so-called profound knowledge?

There are three sets of data below.

At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Ai of the Han Dynasty ordered people to sort out the national books, and the final data was [-] volumes.This is the first time in Chinese history that the national book collection has been clearly recorded.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, after Liu Xiu established Luoyang as his capital, he ordered people to transport all the national books in Chang'an to Luoyang, and only more than 100 volumes were transported.After more than [-] years, the Eastern Han government successively collected and increased the collection of books.When Dong Zhuo moved his capital, a total of [-] volumes of books were pulled out from Luoyang. (However, Taishi Dong is not a cultural person after all. It is not too far from Luoyang to Chang'an, but when the [-] volumes arrived in Chang'an, there were only a thousand volumes left.)
Cai Yong, a great calligrapher in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, is known as the number one collection of books in the world.It was the largest private collection in that era.How many?There were more than [-] volumes in the peak period, and more than [-] volumes remained in his later years.

This is the zenith of the era, the number of national and private collections.

Looks like a lot of books, doesn't it?But the so-called "juan" just refers to bamboo slips or silk books.How big is that information carrying capacity?How many characters can be written in a bamboo slip?According to the actual bamboo slips unearthed in later generations, a bamboo slip can contain up to 49 characters, usually 10 to 30 characters.A volume is between 100 and 300 words.

Therefore, Mr. Cai Yong's maximum reading volume is only about two to three million words.Even if classical Chinese is concise and concise, one word is worth three modern words.That's only 300 million words.And he was already the person who read the most books in that era.

1000 million words?Hehe, which old bookworm at the starting point has read hundreds of millions of words?
It can be said that in modern society, as long as modern people who usually like to read, any one who travels back will completely crush the ancients in terms of knowledge reserve and reading volume.

Now, many of Longshouyuan's textbooks are the essence that Guan Yi condensed after reading the academic achievements of countless sages before crossing...

That's why Guan Yi said to his sons that the origins of family studies and so on are scumbags under the current education model of Longshouyuan.

This point is not only realized by the traversers, but also by the elites of this era.That's why the Cao family and the Sima family brazenly reported to the Da Sima Mansion, begging to recruit talents at Longshouyuan Academy.

"My lord, what do your father and His Majesty think? Why did you promise people from the Sima family and the Cao family to recruit talents in the academy? Wouldn't it be..."

"Hehehe, Brother Bozhi, do you mean to be an enemy?"

"Uh……."

"Hahaha, first of all, regardless of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Southern Wei Dynasty, or the Guiminghou Kingdom, they are all my vassal states now, and cannot be regarded as enemies.

Second, these three companies are really in urgent need of talents.If nothing else, let's just talk about the Sima family. Sima Anshi went to Chang'an more than four months ago to be enshrined, and then more than 8000 Sima family members left the team and accepted household registration in Chang'an.After that, Sima Anshi took the remaining [-] people to Xiutu.The younger brother received the news that they are doing very well now.Uh, Ku, you just passed by there recently, how do you feel? "

"Back to the eldest son, the people of the Sima family have been in Xiutu for less than three months, but they have completely changed." Speaking of this, Kurshan's expression became richer: "In the past, although Xiutu County was a must for business But it is different now. In more than three months, although there are not many new houses, most of the city can see it. All the real estate properties were quickly transformed into Qin Building and Chu Pavilion, Boxi Building and various hotels.

Eldest son, everyone, think about it.After entering Xiutu City, the eunuchs who served the false emperor used to attract guests with that peculiar voice, and all kinds of auspicious flattery words made you feel sorry for yourself if you didn't go in and spend some money.You can stay in the tavern and eat the dishes cooked for you by the former imperial chef.After eating and drinking enough to relax, let the maid who served the emperor and empress warm your bed.If you want to gamble, the banker who presides over it is likely to be the former prince!

Hi!Ladies and gentlemen of the Wei family, as the servants of Da Sima, we have been earning food on the edge of the knife for a long time. After setting off from Chang'an, if we want to find such a place along the way, we must at least go to the Persian Sha Zhongsha. Only save land.And now that Xiutu has such tricks, which merchant passing by would not throw away tens of thousands of dollars?Otherwise, the guys in the team are still willing to handle things seriously for you? "

"Hehehe, Lao Ku, your current net worth is no less than one billion. If you are stomping your feet in the Western Regions, the prime ministers and kings of the four major powers will shake their hands. Why do you need to earn a living on the edge of a knife?"

"Where is it, the eldest son is joking. Uh, we big men have an idiom called a fox pretending to be a tiger, and another idiom called a dog fighting against others. I am just a lackey under the great Sima's sect."

"You're here again. Dai Yi has never been humble or overbearing in front of my father, just you. Let's not gossip, how much did you spend in Xiutu that night?"

"Actually, it's not much. The caravan with 200 people spent a total of less than [-] yuan that night."

"Well, do you think there's anything wrong with their business?"

"Yes, not only yes, but also very large. To give the simplest example, in the various places they operate, the people in charge are often old people over the age of 50, and middle-aged people in their 40s and [-]s are rarely seen. .There are no young people in their twenties.”

"Well, this shows that the old people of the Sima family are the ones who have changed their minds the fastest and are the most able to accept reality. Those trash children, hey~~~"

"It's more than that. My lord, judging from years of experience in business, it's too cheap to spend more than 1000 yuan for more than 4 of us that night. The people of the Sima family don't know how to do business at all. If so, Hugh Leave Tu to me to manage, just for that sum, at least 20 or more will be recorded in the account!"

"Hehehe, you're right. Si Wencao, who is under Uncle Zhong Le's command, sent news that the Sima family had only been away for more than three months, and the assets they brought with them had shrunk by almost half. This made Sima Anshi's memory of Qiuzi's past Merchants are always welcome... that's right, the members of Sima's family used to be masters, and they never did things like calculating money and food, so if they were allowed to do business, they would not be able to wake up to a certain extent if they didn't lose money."

"Ah? And this matter? It seems that there are still many things that have not been clarified that night. Eldest son, in fact, in the eyes of the subordinates, it is not very meaningful for the Sima family to recruit people at Longshouyuan Academy. They want to get Xiu Tu The idea of ​​building a city of pleasure on the Silk Road is correct. But the more this is the case, the more business people should be recruited to cooperate. The people of the Sima family provide various service resources such as maids, butlers, and eunuchs. We provide accountants, shopkeepers, etc. In this way, if the cooperation is good, the subordinates have made a calculation, and the annual profit should not be less than ten million!"

"Hahahaha~~ You old guy, I said why did you come to my house so early in the morning. It turned out that you were waiting for me here. Well, I personally have no objection to this, but in the end I still need to get my father's approval. In my opinion It seems that father will not object if he thinks about it. Maybe he will give you some ideas. "

"Ah?! Thank you, Eldest Young Master. Please rest assured, Eldest Young Master, if I can invest in various industries of Xiutu, I will definitely leave enough shares for Eldest Young Master."

"Tch! All your goods in Dahan are supplied by my Fuxing Society, and my family is the largest shareholder of Fuxing Society. Is this young master missing your dry stock? Besides, if this young master does this, I am afraid that my father will Behead me personally! Are you trying to harm me?"

"Don't dare. Da Sima has a noble character, and the Eldest Young Master is firm in his will. The subordinates admire him so much. I just dare to ask the Eldest Young Master, when will Da Sima come back? Or should the subordinates go to Luoyang to ask for a visit?"

"No need. I received a letter from my father a few days ago, saying that things in the Kanto region are basically settled. My father plans to return to Chang'an in December."
