Chapter 475 The book is a hundred schools of thought, who is heavy on white paper?

Su Liao laughed and said, "Why don't you take a look at the texture of the paper produced in the Daijun workshop?"

His smile made Zhao Yuan feel a sense of confidence, and he couldn't help but feel aroused. However, after hearing Su Liao's words, Zhao Yuan couldn't help but shake his head: "Mr. Su, I know your determination to become a human being, but the things in Luoyang are not something that can convince others by relying solely on good things, especially things like paper. Alas, people who speak now can say good things as bad as bad with just one sentence, because this thing cannot be truly passed down from generation to generation."

"What if it is something that has been passed down from generation to generation?" Su Liao smiled and thought about the thing that carries on the paper, but he had to admire his master. I don't know if it was foresight or by chance.

But in the final analysis, if you don’t have the corresponding foundation, you can’t even do it by chance.

However, his words made Zhao Yuan confused, and he frowned and asked, "What does this mean? No matter how good this paper is, it will not last long. How can it be passed down from generation to generation? In this regard, paper is still not as good as bamboo slips and cloth."

These words suddenly made Su Liao think of himself before. When chatting with Chen Zhi, he heard Chen Zhi say that perhaps the paper in the future, after special processing, continuous sublimation of the process, and in combination with special preservation methods, can be preserved for a long time, and eventually completely replaces bamboo slips and becomes the carrier of text.

Obviously, Zhao Yuan and Chen Zhi have some differences in their views on the future of paper, but now is not the time to discuss this, so he didn't say much and said directly: "I have brought the sample this time. Please wait for Zhao Jun and I'll have someone to take it."

"You brought the things?" Zhao Yuan nodded, "Okay, I'll just see Brother Chen's latest masterpiece. This time he didn't make any comments and changed to papermaking, which was actually a bit beyond my expectations."

Zhao Yuan thought that since Chen Zhi took action, it would definitely be a big deal, but in fact he was still a little distracted. It was because he thought that no matter how good the paper was, it was just like that. Moreover, with Chen Zhi's ability, doing more things is more meaningful than doing these business matters.

Besides, he didn't think that good paper could change the current situation. In fact, even himself was just a breath. After being warned by Wang Lan, he knew that he was unable to go against the trend and his anger could not be relaxed.

But Su Liao didn't care about this. He attracted a follower and gave a few instructions, and the man quickly left.

The two books that Chen Zhi gave him were bound in new paper and written with such content. Su Liao did not dare to take it lightly, and was worried that it would be damaged, so he did not wear them on his body, but placed them solemnly in the car.

The follower quickly returned, and walked in with a cloth bag carefully.

This action also made Zhao Yuan notice, but he didn't bother to worry and smiled indifferently: "Looking at the thickness, I brought a lot of paper. I wonder if I can give me a few pieces."

Su Liao took the cloth bag and turned around and smiled, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint Zhao Jun. It's really hard to take apart the things we brought with me."

"Oh? Why is this?" Zhao Yuan was also curious when he was said, and then he watched Su Liao disassemble the cloth bag one by one, revealing the lineup inside, which was actually two packaged books.

"Has it been bound into a book? Should I put white paper inside and let someone write it on it? If I write this book, I still have to finish it before binding it, otherwise the ink will inevitably penetrate the bottom."

As he spoke, he suddenly widened his eyes.

"Huh? There are words on the cover. This word is well written. It must be written by Brother Chen. But what does the word "Tongdian" mean? Does Brother Chen have a new article?"

Thinking of this, Zhao Yuan's casual attitude had already disappeared, so he stood up and walked over.

Su Liao followed the situation and handed over the first volume of "General Introduction to Tongdian".

"Tongdian... General Introduction?" Zhao Yuan looked at the words on the cover and read them gently, and couldn't help but feel a stern, "Is this a book by Brother Chen? He wrote a book with this new paper? However, the feel of the cover is not much different from that of ordinary paper."

As he said, Zhao Yuan took it and opened it, and he didn't care about how the paper felt. He was attracted by the lines of words on the general outline. He turned his wrist and quickly turned a few pages, his expression became more and more shocked.

"Theory of Dharma, sutras, history, collection, moth, military, Taoism, agriculture, vertical and horizontal theory, square technique, Yin and Yang theory, novel theory, Buddhist theory, Five Dous of Rice... What does this mean? What does it mean?"

In a short period of time, Zhao Yuanconghun didn't care, but now he seems a little lost.

"Zhao Jun, why do you have to do this?" Su Liao was very surprised. After seeing the words in the general outline and the few words marked next to it, he looked through a few pages, and was also frightened, but he did not react like Zhao Yuan.

"Mr. Su, don't blame me, I'm a little out of my composure." Zhao Yuan was reminded and came back to his senses and smiled apologetically. "It's really a bit horrible to see these standards. I looked through a few pages and saw the description of several volumes. A few numbers, but the scriptures were quoted from the classics, which hit the nail on the head. It can be seen that the person who wrote the book really read through many documents and classics to extract the real main theme from it!"

Looking at Zhao Yuan's inexplicable face, Su Liao finally realized why he was so amazed. Obviously, Su Liao was just surprised by the scope of Chen Zhi's writing and felt it was a bit unrealistic. However, Zhao Yuan read a lot of books and read a lot of documents and classics. When he looked through it, he saw some sentences in the general outline. Compared with the two, he realized that it was not random excerpts, so he was surprised.

Zhao Yuan seemed to see Su Liao's confusion, so he simply explained: "This general outline is an outline of a book, and he planned out the scope of the subsequent volumes in advance. However, under each category, there are a few simple descriptions, but these descriptions are not written out of thin air, but excerpted from several books, which are enough to be called the finishing touch!"

As he spoke, he fell into confusion again.

"Although you can find the main theme after reading a few books, the articles listed in the general outline are too broad, and the excerpts, although each outline is different, has a faint tendency. It is obviously written by one person, not compiled by multiple people. But can a person read all the classics of so many categories and still read them at will?"

In amazement, he suddenly looked at Zhao Yuan and asked with some uncertainty: "Did these really come from Brother Chen?"

Su Liao nodded: "No, it's what my master wrote."

"It's really what Brother Chen did? I remembered that when he was in the Secretariat, he claimed to compile a ceremony, sorting and sorting the collection of books in the East and West Gardens to make the summary. However, the matter of going north as the prefect was unconsciously ignored this matter. Later, I didn't hear about the movement of the ceremony. It turned out that it was to be completed in the north," Zhao Yuan frowned and asked, "How many cars did Brother Chen bring to the north this time? He wanted to complete this book in the north? I'm afraid he would have to read a lot of books, and I don't know how much effort it would take."

"This..." Su Liao hesitated for a moment, but said truthfully: "The Lord did not bring many books. Although he also packed two boxes, most of them were his own manuscripts."

"Is it his own manuscript? No other books?" Zhao Yuan suddenly widened his eyes, "Does it all record his heart? I heard that he has the ability to remember everything, but this is too bizarre. If he followed the description of this Tongdian, would he have read all the books in both places?"

As he said that, he picked up the second book.

This second part is "Theory of General Codes and Laws".

"Awesome! Awesome! These few short sentences actually brought out the historical reasons of the entire Legalist, which is really amazing, especially this comment on Shang Jun and the subsequent changes of the Qin Dynasty. Although they are all excerpts, these different Legalist books combined together mean that more than a dozen Legalists are making comments. Where can I find such a thing??"

The more he looked through the photo, the more surprised Su Liao looked. At the end, Zhao Yuan trembled all over and then suddenly became stunned. He looked down at the book in his hand, suddenly came to his senses, and actually showed excitement.

"Mr. Su, can you be sure that these are all done by Brother Chen?"

"This is naturally, but..." Su Liao hesitated as he said.

"It's just something?" Zhao Yuan immediately asked.

Su Liao had to bite the bullet and said, "But, he only wrote two books on my lord, and it was written overnight!"

"I just thanked for two volumes?" Zhao Yuan was stunned. He glanced at the book in his hand, "Is it these two volumes? Is it written overnight?"

He was completely stunned. He wrote that the above were all drawing big cakes. Only one general outline was published and the first volume of "Theory of Laws"? What about the latter one? Every other quarter?

"Then are all marked on the general outline empty? I know it will take a lot of time to complete such a book, but hasn't Brother Chen already made a sound? And it's not a joke to write down such a general outline and let you bring it to everyone. How could there be only two volumes?"

Facing Zhao Yuan's questioning, Su Liao could only smile bitterly.

"Wait, do you say that these two books were written overnight?" Zhao Yuan shook his head, "I'm afraid this is wrong. Even with Brother Chen's talent, he can never forget it, he will definitely not make sense. This many words and sentences are just about making choices, not to mention one night, ten nights are not enough."

He finally calmed down and asked, "You mentioned just now that Brother Chen brought two boxes of manuscripts. I am afraid that most of this general theory will be included in that manuscript. Moreover, Brother Chen will not be so stupid in his work, so there will definitely be no problem!"

After saying that, he suddenly gritted his teeth and sneered: "This is interesting. I thought that when the Buddha commented, I had no chance to find the place, but now I have another idea."

Su Liao still couldn't understand why, but he was unwilling to take this risk. He was not afraid of ten thousand, but was afraid of if he was. So he could only say: "Jun Zhao, I'm asking you to see this paper..."

When Zhao Yuan heard this, he burst into laughter.
