Chapter 288
Touching the "Analects of Confucius" in his hand, Cai Yong's eyes were full of tears. Those who read naturally know the benefits brought by the publication of this kind of book.After a brief absence, Cai Yong flipped through the pages again fondly.

"How much does this book cost? Let's not say that this paper is unusual, it's rare that the characters are so regular, it makes people look very comfortable!" Liu Yu, an old bookworm, also asked excitedly.

However, Huo Yu did not answer Liu Yu's question, but pointed to the books behind him and said loudly: ""Xue Er", "Wei Zheng", "Ba Yi", "Li Ren", "Gong Ye Chang", " Yongye, Shuer, Taibo, Zihan, Xiangdang, Xianjin, Yanyuan, Zilu, Xianwen, Wei Linggong, Jishi , "Yanghuo", "Weizi", "Zizhang", and "Yaoyue" have [-] chapters, and there are not many chapters!"

"The handwriting is neat and tidy. Is there any omission?" Liu Chong asked beside him.

"Uh! This, Yu'er doesn't know yet!" Huo Yu had no choice but to answer such a question truthfully, after all, he hadn't tried it word by word.

"How did Yu'er make this book, tell me quickly and truthfully!" Cai Yong asked hastily after quickly flipping through a book and not finding any problems.

Once this kind of clearly printed and beautifully bound paper "Analects of Confucius" book is circulated, it will definitely attract the pursuit of scholars, and such an important weapon of the country will surely last forever.

Before Huo Yu answered, he was stunned by Liu Yu's impulsive behavior.At this time, Liu Yu snatched the books from Cai Yong and Liu Chong with lightning speed, and then spread them on the unique square table in Youzhou, flipping them back and forth.

"Yu'er, I wonder who copied this book?" Liu Yu flipped through it quickly, not forgetting to ask Huo Yu.

Liu Yu's actions made Cai Yong and Liu Chong join in. The three of them looked again and found that the fonts on the three books were exactly the same, and the arrangement of the characters was exactly the same.

Huo Yu was not in a hurry to answer, but stood aside with a smile on his face.

"Isn't this copied?" Liu Yu looked dumbfounded, so far, he was the first person to react.

"Yes, this is printed using movable type printing, and then the paper can be bound. Using this method to print books is not only a large quantity, but also very fast." Huo Yu said with a little satisfaction.

Liu Chong, Cai Yong, and Liu Yu couldn't restrain their surprise when they heard this. Although they didn't know what movable type printing was, they could be mass-produced and the speed was very fast, but they could clearly hear these two sentences.

At first they thought it was manual copying, but now they can print in large quantities, that is to say, the bamboo slips and books they have spent half their lives collecting and copying not only take up space but are also labor-intensive. The ones in front of them are not only light but also easy to carry.

"The sharp weapon of the country! The sharp weapon of the country!" Finally Liu Yu looked up to the sky and sighed.

"Yu'er, can those orphan copies be printed?" Cai Yong asked immediately.

"Father-in-law, don't worry, the orphan copy has been arranged, it's just a matter of time!" Huo Yu saluted with a smile.

Cai Yong was overjoyed when he heard the words. For an old bookworm like him, the bamboo slips he read in the past were extremely heavy. If there was any slight damage, it would be heartbreaking. However, the book now does not need to worry about damage at all.

"Okay! Yu'er's big gift is too timely." Cai Yong said with a big smile.

With such a good opening, Huo Yu once again turned on the fooling mode.He mobilized his three elders to go out and present books to their old friends, but the three of them looked at each other coldly when they said this. Fortunately, Huo Yu promised that "The Analects of Confucius" could be mass-produced, which reassured the three of them.

The publication of Youzhou Books once again shocked the entire Han Dynasty!Taking advantage of this trend, Huo Yu began to promote Youzhou College on a large scale, and claimed that as long as he could be admitted to Youzhou College, all fees and accommodations would be free, and books would be distributed free of charge on a regular basis.

In this way, the entire Han Dynasty once again set off a craze for going to Youzhou, but compared to the previous two times, this time the craze was mainly for those students from poor families.

For this reason, the Youzhou Shepherd's Mansion once again issued a series of policies. As long as the students brought by the caravan can be admitted to Youzhou College, then this caravan will enjoy the preferential treatment of tax reduction when doing business in Youzhou. , Those caravans going to Youzhou took the initiative to look for these poor students.

At the beginning, most of the princes didn't pay any attention, but when they got the final news, they were in a bad mood, and they scolded Huo Yu hundreds of times.Fortunately, there are very few children of those big scholar families, because these big scholar families can buy some limited edition books produced in Youzhou at high prices through special channels. What would it look like if they knew that these books were only beautifully packaged.

The establishment of Youzhou College is proceeding step by step, and Huo Yu has devoted almost all of his energy here recently, except for going back to the house every day to spend time with Liu Ying in the clouds and rains of Wushan.

However, this kind of dedication also got a lot of rewards. Huo Yu had just arrived at the academy this day, and saw Cai Yong, Liu Yu, and Liu Chong leading the three students around to visit.

"Yu'er, I have met my father, father-in-law, and uncle!" Huo Yu went forward to greet him.

"Meet the champion!"

"The three gentlemen don't need to be too polite!" To be valued by the three of Cai Yong must be famous, and Huo Yu dare not neglect at all.

"Yu'er, these three are Duke Kang Cheng's proud disciples Bing Yuan, Guan Ning, and Guo Yuan!" Liu Yu said eagerly.

Guan Ning, named You'an, was from Zhuxu County, Beihai; Bingyuan, whose root was Ju, was from the same town as Guan Ning, and was also from Zhuxu County, Beihai; Guoyuan, named Zini, was also from Le'angai.

Upon hearing the names of these three people, Huo Yu stood there dumbfounded.When I was in Liaodong, I searched hard, but I didn't expect these three people to be attracted by my paper books.

"The three gentlemen are great talents. They were sent to look for them when they were in Liaodong, and they finally meet today." Huo Yu said excitedly.

"For these years, the three of us have been living in seclusion. If it weren't for the spread of the paper books, we might not be able to meet each other!" Guan Ning said helplessly.

The reason why the three fled to Liaodong was firstly to avoid the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and secondly, the three of them lost their confidence in serving the country due to the sluggish government of the Han Dynasty over the years.

"Three great talents, how can we bury their talents, why not govern one side to benefit the people?" Huo Yu would never let go of the opportunity in front of him, so he directly threw an olive branch, the ability of these three people is more than enough to be a prefect.

As soon as Huo Yu said this, everyone present was shocked.Guan Ning, Bing Yuan, and Guo Yuan have been familiar with Huo Yu these years, and they have been living in seclusion in Liaodong, so they are not so clear about Liaodong affairs.

Today's Youzhou is full of vitality. It is obvious that Huo Yu is a hundred times stronger than the current Han court, so Guoyuan and Bing Yuan, who have long been willing to contribute, bowed immediately: "See the Lord!"

"Hahaha, it's a great joy to get the help of Genju and Zini today!" Huo Yu said with a smile.
