Lu Zhi was stunned when he heard this.

Chen Zhi continued: "I have noticed all the points that Lu Jun was worried about before, so I have paid attention to them, but there is one thing that Lu Jun probably didn't see!"

"What's the matter?" Lu Zhi calmed down and looked humbly asking for advice, but he was thinking about continuing to persuade him later. After all, the general seemed to be relaxed this time, and Sun Xiu had no words to refute him for the time being, so he couldn't miss this opportunity.

But then he saw Chen Zhi not speaking, but got up and walked to the bookshelf, pulled out a book from it, and threw it on the table in front of Lu Zhi and Sun Xiu.

Lu Zhi and Sun Xiu looked at the book in front of him and immediately became concerned, and then they thought about the title.

"Chen's Literature"?

They are not unfamiliar with this book, and it is the earliest batch of published books.

Initially, in order to promote printing and to prevent being boycotted by the aristocratic families, Chen Zhi took several of his own articles and sorted them into a document with few words and chapters, and used them to publish them.

This kind of thing is like he is showing his personal literary talent and spreading his own reputation. The aristocratic family is not too vigilant. In addition, there is not much content, which makes it easy to publish, so it is successfully distributed and distributed by the government for free, and it will soon be spread everywhere.

Now seeing Chen Zhi take out this book, whether it is Lu Zhi or Sun Xiu, this aristocratic family or a poor family, they all hope to find the meaning behind it.

On the issue of giving up his son to the countryside, they believe that every move of Chen Zhi has its meaning.

"Is it possible that this article in the catalogue involves this question and give an answer?"

This idea appeared in the minds of both of them at the same time.

This is not their unconceivable thoughts for no reason. Unlike other people's records, Chen Zhi, the general of the North and the governor of Youzhou, his articles are not just empty explorations and discussions like ordinary famous people. On the contrary, the few articles included in the records often represent some of Chen Zhi's thoughts and policy tendencies.

The most representative and well-known ones are undoubtedly the two articles "The Talk of Teachers" and "The Theory of the Six Kingdoms". The former reveals Chen Zhi's view on the way of education, while the latter involves many external thoughts.

In addition to these two articles, the documentary also contains Chen Zhi’s views on farming in "Qimin Yaoshu", as well as his claims on farmers and tenants, and about three chapters. The remaining chapters are excerpted from the "Dao Dictionary". The collection of texts is excerpted and combined into a set of books. There are many articles about Confucianism and Taoism, which reflect a certain ruling idea.

In the past two years, many scholars from aristocratic families and poor families have bought "Wenlu" to study, and have studied several of the articles thoroughly.

Now when the two of them think about it, they feel that several articles involve issues related to selecting talents and educating the people, but they are scattered in different sentences.

"When I go back this time, I have to let the rank of the rank of the clan generals pick out the relevant contents in the document and combine them in a complete manner. Maybe the general's original intention can be seen!"

Just as Lu Zhi was thinking this way, Sun Xiu felt something was wrong. Since the lord has already discussed specific issues, he shouldn't have played a puzzle. Could it be that the problem is not in the article?

The two of them thought left and right, not daring to speak rashly, and the lobby suddenly became quiet, quiet and a little awkward.

Seeing this, Chen Zhi spoke, "I mean, this book was published, and there is printing technology behind it. You must know that the printing technology has also brought a lot of money to the aristocratic family in the past two years."

Printing!

Suddenly, Sun Xiu and Lu Zhi both understood and realized why Chen Zhi took out this book. It turned out that he had thought it was a bit out of the way, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

But then, they thought of the problem of printing, and then Lu Zhi's face became unfavorable again.

The rise of printing technology is inseparable from Chen Zhi's promotion. When he was still in Daijun, he came up with relevant technologies and hoped that the aristocratic families could join in and share the profits together.

Unfortunately, the Dai County family was resistant to it because of class instinct, so Chen Zhi only promoted it alone and published some documents, which were only circulated in Dai County. After Dai County, even in Youzhou, it was suppressed and was not very circulated on the surface.

But when Chen Zhi took control of Youzhou and took over the northern part, he once again promoted the development of printing technology, the situation would be different.

In fact, even if Chen Zhi did not promote it, small private workshops were already everywhere and had begun to take shape. When he advocated the official publication of Youzhou, the aristocratic families he had just conquered joined in to show obedience, hoping to use this to please Chen Zhi. At that time, the class instinct of the aristocratic families was more to continue the family and other principles could be released.

Anyway, Chen Zhi is also a top-ranking celebrity with a good reputation. It is not embarrassing to surrender to such figures.

At first, the effect was remarkable. The printing technology in the circulation of print items gave the aristocratic families unexpectedly generous returns. However, when they were a little interested, the situation took a sharp turn. Small workshops sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, seizing the low-end market, allowing the official prints of Youzhou to only circulate in the aristocratic families circle. Now the profits were much thinner and they became useless.

On the other hand, the spread of knowledge brought about by cheap books has begun to arouse the vigilance of the aristocratic families.

Chen Zhi's words rang in front of the two: "After the spread of printing technology, many small workshops appeared. Their printing can be said to be crude, but there are many, and the price of each volume is getting lower and lower. The number of people who come into contact with the book volume is expanding. It won't take long before these people have read books will exceed a certain number. How can we restrain these people?"

Sun Xiu's eyes lit up and praised: "So that's the case. The general's civil and military methods give this group of people a hope, so that they know that there is a chance to win the exam every year. This time, if not, there is another next time, year after year, there will always be hope, so that people will try their best to advance, study hard for their studies, and be confined in their hometown and will not wander around."

Lu Zhi also understood, but he was a little bit complaining. In his opinion, this printing technique was also advocated by the general. If there were too many scholars, no one could control himself and could not become an official, so he would run around the world. I don’t know how many anti-kings planners were going to become. As a result, you came up with an idea to restrain them.

Naturally, he would not know that the popularity of printing, the collapse of knowledge monopoly, and the spread of knowledge to the lower classes are inevitable trends in history. Instead of letting the situation develop on its own, it is better to take action and restrain it now.

Of course, more importantly, the consequences caused by knowledge monopoly have gradually been reflected in this era.

No matter how Lu Zhi thought, he had to admit that Chen Zhi's words made sense. The civil and military methods are indeed a poor scholar who is successful in learning and has a strong energy, but has nowhere to become an adult. It is a good way to restrain him, just...

"If they are asked to go to various places and preach to the people, it will be a bit over. People have never learned and have no ambitions. They often seek benefits and avoid harm. If they know a lot, they will be difficult to control."
