Chapter 314:

[Volatile Type Printing]

"That's right." Li Chengqian nodded.

He took out a small seal from himself, which was his private seal, then looked at Confucius and said, "The Master's seal is for you to use."

Confucius took out the seal and gave it to Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian took a seal, then took his own seal, dipped it ink paste, and covered it on a piece of paper.

"Look." Li Chengqian pointed to the mark left by his seal, let the masters see it, and said.

The Masters nodded.

Li Chengqian took Confucius' seal, dipped it ink paste and stamped it on the paper, and said, "Look."

The Masters nodded.

Li Chengqian put the two seals together, stamped them again, and said, "Look."

The Masters nodded, but wondered why Li Chengqian had so many chapters, what did he do?

"Isn't this seal the same as printing? If you need Chengqian's seal, use Chengqian's seal. If you need the Master's seal, use the Master's seal. If both are needed, put together, and the printed version will be the effect of a male plate. Therefore, you can print without carving a whole wooden board, but cut it into pieces. Whenever you need it, you should find which character to put it together and then cover it with paper to print. In this way, there will be no broken character and the whole version cannot be used, and it will not be used after use at once." Li Chengqian told several masters about the advantages of movable type printing.

The shortcomings of wooden board printing are known to these teachers who are engaged in education. When they hear Li Chengqian’s advantages of movable type printing, their eyes lit up!

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is so good!" Yu Zhiyu praised.

"Why never thought that this seal and printing were in common?" Confucius took back his seal and said with a smile.

Other masters also praised Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "Masters, don't praise me anymore. This is just something Chengqian thought of for a moment, and it's no big deal. I originally wanted to save some effort for the Masters without having to hand-copy the certificate, but since Master Yu said that hand-copying can appear sincere, then use this movable type printing next time!"

Yu Zhiyu said: "Yes. Yes."

Confucius said: "After the promotion of movable type printing, printing will not be so difficult. It will be much easier to print and publish books in the future. In this way, more books can be printed for scholars all over the world to learn!"

He looked at Li Chengqian and said, "I must print this movable type to Your Majesty. Let Your Majesty reward your highness with innovative and promising people!"

Li Chengqian was praised as a promising person by Confucius. He was very happy. It was very difficult to hear praise from Confucius. Unexpectedly, a simple movable type printing today made Confucius not hesitate to praise.

After school, he returned to Xichiyuan. It was already another leisure afternoon after dinner, but an eunuch came to see Li Chengqian.

This eunuch has seen him several times and is someone next to the queen.

"My mother has something to come to me again?" Li Chengqian said first.

"Yes, Your Highness." The eunuch replied.

Li Chengqian stood up and said, "I'll go now."

"Your Highness, the Queen, didn't let you see her."

"Um?"

The eunuch said: "The queen asked His Highness to visit Duke Yi on her behalf."

"Oh, so this is the case, I understand." Li Chengqian said.

Although Li Chengqian provided Qin Qiong with a life-saving method, he was not sure whether Qin Qiong could survive. After all, the old man was weak, and there were other diseases besides scurvy. If this cures scurvy, his life might be taken away by other diseases.

After he came back from Qin Mansion, he did not pay attention to Qin Qiong. The eunuch came to ask Li Chengqian to visit him. Only then did Li Chengqian realize that Qin Qiong had not really died yet.

Call Lao Zeng and ask him to prepare for leaving the palace.

This is the first time Li Chengqian's prince's ceremony has been presented.

When he arrived at Qin Mansion, although Qin Qiong was still lying on the bed, his complexion was obviously much better than yesterday. This time, he saw Li Chengqian, and his gratitude was beyond words.

The country's successor's schedule to visit the old cadres was successfully concluded. Li Chengqian was about to leave when he heard Qin Qiong snorting in pain.

Li Chengqian asked with concern: "Does Uncle Qin feel uncomfortable? Should I ask the imperial physician to take a look?"

Qin Qiong endured the pain and took a while to relieve herself. Then she said, "I'm an old problem, it hurts from my bones!"

"Brother, have you ever had your old habit?" Old Man Cheng walked into the door.

Old Man Cheng also came to visit Qin Qiong. As soon as he entered the door, he heard the prince visiting Qin Qiong, so it was no surprise to see Li Chengqian here. And he and Li Chengqian are quite familiar recently, so after coming in, it is important to greet the old brother's health first.

"Oh, Your Highness the Crown Prince is here. Cheng has seen Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Only then did Old Man Cheng bow.

"Hello Uncle Cheng!" Li Chengqian waved his hand, "Uncle Cheng doesn't need to be polite."

Mr. Cheng asked him: "You are..."

Li Chengqian held Qin Qiong one of his legs and said, "I'm looking at Uncle Qin's legs. He looks like he's rheumatism!"

Old Man Cheng's face was slightly warm and he said, "That's right, it's just rheumatism and old injuries!"

"Oh, I know there is a kind of wine that can cure rheumatism!" Li Chengqian gently lowered Qin Qiong's legs.

Qin Huaidao looked at Li Chengqian's legs and carefully inspected it. He felt a little moved and bit his teeth gently, as if he had made some decision!

Mr. Cheng asked Li Chengqian: "Do you brewed?"

"Yes, but those ordinary wines cannot cure diseases. You still need to soak something that can cure rheumatism!" said Li Chengqian.

"What?"

"Snake." Li Chengqian said, "Soaking snakes and Chinese medicine into wine is very effective for rheumatism. Even if it cannot be cured, it can relieve the condition and strengthen the body!"

Cheng Laohuo believed Li Chengqian's words, but he didn't believe Li Chengqian in other places, but in this regard, Cheng Laohuo believed him. Just like when he said that vegetable soup was good for teeth at his house last time, Cheng Laohuo thought that Qin Qiong had scurvy and had two or three teeth lost in a row, so he suddenly believed Li Chengqian's words. These days, his family has cooked a lot of soup, and he had to drink two bowls of vegetable soup every meal to be full.

Now that he heard that snakes can cure rheumatism, he believed it.

"Does snakes have special places? Do you need to raise them specifically?" asked Mr. Cheng.

"This is not necessary. If you catch a snake in the wild, you can use it to soak in wine!" Li Chengqian waved his hand.

When Qin Huaidao heard this, he immediately wanted to find a snake for his grandfather. Old Man Cheng waved his hand and said, "Old Cheng, I have time in the afternoon, so I'll go and catch the snake for His Highness!"
