So, now that the rebels have occupied Chang'an, it feels a bit like Qin losing its deer.
If Liya develops well in the future, she will have a chance to conquer the world if she marches out of Chang'an and attacks Luoyang. Once Liya gets help from the talents of the Hundred Schools of Thought, the original chance will become a huge opportunity!
So this is why Confucianism must send people over there.
For these people, they never cared who the ruler was. All they cared about was whether their doctrines could bring them benefits. This is one of the reasons why Wu Zetian was able to become emperor.
Because it was enough that Wu Zetian could bring benefits to these people, whether she was a woman or not was actually not a big deal at all.
It can be said that Liya's move was very clever. Even if you look down on me because I am a woman, so what? In the end, you still have to send people to educate the people obediently, right?
Although these scholars looked down on Leah, they still had to cooperate with her if they wanted to benefit. It could be said that they were completely controlled by Leah.
After doing this, Leah thought about what else she could do at the moment.
Speaking of which, the four sacred artifacts of time travel are cement, glass, steam engine, and flintlock.
At present, she can only make glass as soon as possible. Cement, steam engine, and flintlock are all difficult to make at present, but if she is given some time, she can still make them.
The four sources of income are soap, sugar, liquor and newspapers.
This is easy to do. Just give her some time and it can be put on the agenda quickly.
Finally, there are four magic weapons, namely generator, ironclad ship, power wheel, and radio. These can be buried for the time being, as the cost of achieving them is too high.
The four must-learn subjects, poetry, sketching, advanced mathematics, and general history, seemed to have little to do with her. After all, she didn't need to use these academic subjects to show off and pick up girls.
At least there is already one at home, and he is very jealous, so don’t think about those unnecessary things.
Thinking about these things, Leah felt that it would be better to develop the four sources of income first. Only with money can one do other things. Without money, one can't move forward.
However, since we are going to open a school, we should first develop movable type printing. This requires Gongsun Zhi, otherwise it will be troublesome if it is too late by then.
Thinking of this, Liya asked someone to call Gongsun Zhi over.
"My lord, I don't know why you called me." When called by Liya, Gongsun Zhi knew that the lord must have asked him to do something strange today.
"Mr. Gongsun, you came at the right time. I want you to do something." Liya said directly.
"I wonder what my lord needs me to do?" Gongsun Zhi thought to himself.
"I need you to find a few writers to write all the characters currently in use in China on some wooden boards. However, they must be neat and standardized, and the characters must be written in reverse," said Leah.
"Ah?" Gongsun Zhi was confused. Looking for a wooden board, and writing backwards? What kind of operation is this?
"My Lord, don't we already have paper? Why do we need to write on a wooden board?"
If you don't understand, just ask. This is Gongsun Zhi's good quality. Don't be afraid of trouble. If you don't ask clearly, if something goes wrong, it will be his responsibility!
"Mr. Gongsun, let me ask you, where did today's books come from? Of course, I'm not talking about where the books came from, but where did the words on the books come from?" asked Leah.
"Although I cannot recognize many characters, I still know this. These characters were copied word by word by the scholars," Gongsun Zhi replied.
"That's right, that's why I asked you to find some writers and ask them to write on the wooden board." Leah nodded.
"But if you want to copy a book, shouldn't you write it on paper? What does this have to do with writing on a wooden board?" Gongsun Zhi still didn't understand.
“Have you ever thought about what happens once the words are engraved on the wood, and then your craftsmen carve out each word that is written, and finally apply ink to the fonts, and then print the white paper on it?” Leah explained.
"So that's how it is. I understand now! Why did my lord ask me to write in reverse?" After Liya's explanation, Gongsun Zhi immediately understood.
Seeing that Gongsun Zhi had understood, Liya smiled slightly and said:
"That's it. You first carve out the molds for the words, then select the words according to the book you want to print, arrange them on a pre-prepared type plate, apply ink and print them. After printing, remove the molds and keep them for use next time you print."
"My lord, once the method you mentioned is realized, the inventory of books will no longer be a problem in the future. This will benefit the people for thousands of years!" Gongsun Zhi knew how much prestige this matter would bring to Leah as soon as he thought about it.
You have to know that for today's students, a book can be read over and over again and is more precious than a wife. It is like today's mobile phones, which cannot be separated from them. Once they are separated, they cannot live with it.
In ancient times, these people were all called nerds!
Once Leah makes books no longer precious, and every household has several copies of the Four Books and Five Classics, then even contemporary great scholars will probably be envious and jealous of that reputation, because Leah has solved the problem of everyone being able to read.
"I'm glad you understand. You should do this as soon as possible. These things must be done before the school is established. Do you understand?" Leah said.
"I will go back and find someone to handle these things now." Gongsun Zhi nodded.
Now that the problem of printing has been solved, the question now is how to make money.
Although the glass is already in the process of being made, it is a profitable business, so the more you can make, the better, right?
Chapter 69: Morgan plays tricks again
The four sources of income are soap, sugar, liquor and newspapers.
As for newspapers, people don't have money at home now, so probably no one will spend money to read the news. It will be suitable to publish them in two or three years when every household has extra money.
Among soap, sugar and liquor, liquor is the easiest.
You don't need to make a lot of liquor, but you must make it pure and strong! This distillation method can achieve this.
Although many people say that the practice of distilling liquor had already existed in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the technology at that time was not very good. At least in this era, the liquor that Leah tasted was indeed not very good.
Otherwise she wouldn't have thought of distilling liquor.
After these wines are made, they are sold directly to dignitaries and can make a lot of money.
However, Liya felt that she should experiment with this thing herself. When she was young, she saw her family distilling it, so she knew how to do it.
The method of making white sugar is much simpler, much simpler than making salt.
As long as you squeeze out the sugarcane juice and boil it repeatedly over high heat several times, you will finally get a lot of sugar. However, this sugar is not white. The white color is also achieved through a later color filtering process.
There are two methods, one is to add activated carbon, and the second is to add yellow mud water. In short, both of them can turn brown sugar and brown sugar into white sugar.
The price of white sugar is often more than ten times that of ordinary sugar. It can be said that this is a highly profitable industry!
In ancient times, there was a saying that gold was easy to obtain but sugar was hard to find, but the ancients just did not master the method.
All Leah has to do is make sugar and sell it to rich people.
She can skip the steps of making sugar and just buy ready-made sugar. All she has to do is convert the brown sugar into white sugar.
Then there is salt. Although she cannot make sea salt, there is more than just sea salt. In our country, there are many kinds of salt. As long as she can make the salt into snowflake salt like white sugar, it will surely bring her countless wealth.
Originally, there were many things that Leah could not accomplish with current handicrafts, but after her sister arrived, perhaps she could achieve them with the help of her abilities.
You can't raise her for nothing, right? Since your sister is the one who provides you with food, shelter and shelter, it's understandable that she would help you in the future, right?
Leah looked at Morgan on the side. Morgan was sitting on a chair at the moment, looking at the books written by Leah, with a hint of amazement on his face.
What Leah wrote was unheard of for people of this era.
"Sister, can you make potions?" Leah asked.
"Potion making? What kind of potion are you going to make?" Morgan put down the book he was reading and looked at Leah curiously.
"It's not a magic potion. I want to ask you if you can make some ingredients with similar flavors such as sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty? The kind that won't poison people even if they eat it."
Morgan thought for a moment and said, "It's just an ordinary medicine, right? There's nothing wrong with that, but what are you going to do with it?"
"You've tried the food nowadays, right? It's basically bland. I'm thinking about adding some flavor to these ingredients, so I want you to help me research some seasonings that can improve the taste of the ingredients."
Morgan was speechless. She didn't expect that Leah came to her just to satisfy her appetite. However, what Leah said gave her some inspiration. It was true that the magic potion she developed could change the taste of existing food.
"Okay, give me a few days, and I'll make some seasonings that are harmless to the human body and have the flavors you mentioned." Morgan nodded.
"That's great!" Leah said happily when she saw Morgan agreed.
Excluding some reasons, my sister is also very easy to talk to.
At night, Leah was lying in her room, thinking about what to do the next day, when there was a knock on the door from outside.
Leah was a little confused, looked outside the door and asked, "Who is it?"
"Sister, it's me." Morgan's voice came from outside the door.
"Morgan?" Liya was a little confused. Why did he come to see her so late at night without taking a rest?
Although confused, Leah still got up from the bed, walked to the door and opened it.
After Leah opened the door, Morgan's figure suddenly flashed in, so fast that even Leah couldn't react.
"Sister, you..." Leah just wanted to say Morgan, but the words stopped at her lips.
At this moment, Morgan was only wearing a layer of gauze, her snow-white skin was visible to the naked eye, and her long silver-white hair was still a little wet. It seemed that she had just finished a shower and came here in a hurry without drying her hair.
"Sister, I feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach, and I want to see you." Morgan said in a soft voice, his eyebrows and eyes were as shiny as autumn water, and the drooping corners of his eyes added a sense of purity and innocence.
"Your stomach feels uncomfortable? Are you about to give birth?" Upon hearing this, Leah's face showed a trace of panic. She still remembered that the midwife had said that Morgan would be in labor during this period.
"Probably not. I don't feel like I'm going to give birth." Morgan saw Leah's panic and felt a little sweet in his heart. He smiled slightly.
"Is that so? But I don't know anything about childbirth, and I don't know what to do. How about finding a midwife? Although this may trouble others, it is necessary for the safety of you and the baby in your belly."
Leah thought for a moment and said.
"No, no. I just feel a little uncomfortable. There's no need to make such a fuss. Just rub it for me, sister." Morgan said and sat naturally on Leah's bed.
At this moment, Leah didn't know that the most difficult path in her life was Morgan's routine!
Leah looked at Morgan sitting on her bed and scratched the back of her head, feeling like something was wrong.
Leah thought about it and decided that since her sister needed her to massage her, she would massage her.
Leah came to the bed, sat next to Morgan, looked at Morgan's stomach, and asked, "Sister, where is your stomach uncomfortable?"
After Leah asked, Morgan took the initiative to open her gauze skirt, revealing her fair and tender belly. A blue mark was clearly visible, and her lower body was temporarily hidden by her legs.
"What are you doing?" When Leah saw Morgan like this, she was immediately frightened and quickly took a few steps back.
Leah's face flushed red, and she felt her breathing quicken. The shock her sister gave her was really too great.
Chapter 70 Morgan Continues to Seduce Leah
"Of course I asked you to rub my belly. Why are you reacting so strongly? We are both girls and sisters. How could I eat you?"
Seeing Leah's big reaction, Morgan showed a look of grievance on his face.
Liya was a little speechless. Do you dare to say the same thing to me again about what you did to me last night?
It's not that Leah is too suspicious, but Morgan has a criminal record!
"Sister, don't just stand there. Come over here and help me rub it. Or do you want me to call you something more intimate before you come over?" Morgan said when he saw that Leah was hesitant to move.
"What's your name?" Leah was stunned.
"Do you want me to call you husband or wife?" Morgan whispered in Leah's ear in a gentle tone, as if he were a lover.
"What husband and wife... Don't yell at me in front of others, I haven't completely admitted this!" Liya's face felt like it was burning, and her whole face was red!
If Morgan were to shout this in front of others, how would she save her dignity?
"Why don't you come over and help me massage it? If you go on like this, I don't know what will happen." Morgan saw this and spoke with a slightly coercive tone.
Leah thought about it and walked back to the bed. She took a look at Morgan's smooth and flat belly, then turned her head away a little embarrassedly.
"Then I'll trouble my husband to rub my belly for me~" Morgan put his hands on Leah's shoulders and leaned over.
Leah felt Morgan's movement, turned her head, and kissed Morgan directly on the cheek.
"I'm sorry..." Leah apologized with a blushing face.
Morgan blinked because of Leah's action. Although she felt a little shy, she was relatively calm and would not express it obviously even if she did.
Her sister seems to have a wooden personality. If she doesn't take the initiative, there will be no result between the two of them.
"It's okay, then help me rub it." Morgan put his hands on Leah's waist and leaned his head on Leah's chest.
Leah took a look at Morgan's lower abdomen and the unclear valley below it. She swallowed unconsciously and her heart was beating extremely fast.
After thinking for a while, Leah slowly stretched out her hand. Seeing Leah's hesitation, Morgan suddenly grabbed Leah's hand and placed it on his lower abdomen.
"Clap."
The palm of her hand felt like her skin was touching hers, and feeling the smooth touch, Leah felt her heart was melting. She stared blankly at Morgan's belly, and felt her face getting hotter and hotter.
"Knead?" Morgan said unhappily as he watched Leah remain motionless for a long time. He had already shown that he was letting his sister touch him at will, so was he going to have to move himself in the end?
What a piece of wood!
"Oh." Upon hearing this, Leah quickly rubbed Morgan's lower abdomen with her palms. She didn't know what her expression was at the moment.
But as she continued to rub Morgan's lower abdomen, she could feel that the beauty in her arms' breathing became a little faster, and occasionally a seductive sound came out of her mouth, which made Leah's heart tremble.
