Chapter 191: Lu Zhi's Shock

Zhang Yu turned to Lu Zhi. He had no plan to meet Lu Zhi.

However, Zhang Yu had to be careful when the bandits robbed him.

It was already an afternoon two days later when I saw Lu Zhi.

"Zhang Zifan, is it true that someone deliberately sabotaged the construction of Chidao?" Lu Zhi asked.

"As expected, if I hadn't happened to pass by, the impact this time might not be small." Zhang Yu said.

"Boom~"

Lu Zhi slammed his fist on the table, and said angrily, "The big man finally calmed down. It's the time when he is trying to stabilize and develop, and someone dares to destroy everything."

Lu Zhihui was furious precisely because he was dedicated to the great man, and he was a rare loyal man at the end of the Han Dynasty.

The work-for-relief method proposed by Zhang Yu is a method that can change the current situation, but some people want to destroy it.

Therefore, Lu Zhi could not tolerate it.

A few months can prove that this method of work-for-food is very good.

A large number of refugees were recruited along the road. These refugees would not cause trouble if they had food to eat, and the law and order would stabilize immediately.

"Zhang Zifan, what can you do?" Lu Zhi asked.

"It's impossible for the government along the road to protect them. These people can't protect them at all, and they will only greedily ask for more. Therefore, I think that these workers can be armed and trained. Let them protect themselves," Zhang Yu said.

At first, Lu Zhi hesitated. After all, if these workers were armed, the nature might change. What would happen if these workers rebelled?

However, Lu Zhi quickly abandoned these concerns. Road construction is related to the stability of the entire Dahan and must be implemented.

"Okay, I'll write a memorial to the court and hand it over." Lu Zhi said.

"Grand Lu, this is too slow, and it might get stuck in the middle. You write to me, and I will give it to His Majesty directly when I go to see His Majesty." Zhang Yu said.

Lu Zhi nodded, and suddenly felt that it would be beneficial for Zhang Yu to bribe Liu Hong to get close to Zhang Rang and others.

At least it's much more convenient to do something, and you won't have to give up for various reasons.

After this matter was over, Zhang Yu thought about his trip to Luoyang again.

"Grandpa Lu, this trip to Luoyang is going to be a big event, and I would like to ask you to write a letter so Mr. Cai and the others can help." Zhang Yu said.

Lu Zhi wondered, Zhang Yu became the emperor next to Luoyang, what else would he need other people to help with?

"Go get some books." Zhang Yu said to the guards beside him.

Lu Zhi wondered again, why did Zhang Yu take the book?

But soon Lu Zhi became strange and shocked.

"This is a book. This is a real book. It's so light and thin." Lu Zhi became excited when he saw the book on paper.

"This is really a book, this is the Analects, this is Mencius, and this is Six Teachings."

Lu Zhi was already getting old, and he was as excited as a child at this time.

How could Lu Zhi not know the importance of books.

He was a great Confucianist in the late Han Dynasty, so of course he had an unspeakable love for books.

"Zhang Zifan, did you make this? It's amazing. How much does it cost to make this kind of book? How long does it take to make one? As long as it's not as difficult as bamboo slips, it's a great achievement." Lu Zhi said again excitedly .

Several books, Lu Zhi kept reading back and forth.

Zhang Yu couldn't bear it, how old he was, he was so excited after reading a few books.

So Zhang Yu said: "Mr. Lu, I will give these books to Mr. Lu, and I hope Mr. Lu can help repair one of them."

Lu Zhi was taken aback, and it took him a long time to react and said, "Are these books given to me?"

Lu Zhi couldn't believe it, and then asked: "What is your intention for gifting such a precious book? What letter do you want me to write?"

Zhang Yu had a strange expression on his face. This book was just an ordinary gift to Zhang Yu, not so precious.

"Mr. Lu is worrying too much. This time I brought a lot of books to sell in Luoyang. Then I want to ask Mr. Lu to write a letter to Mr. Cai and ask him to help recommend it." Zhang Yu said.

In fact, Zhang Yu didn't need anyone's recommendation if he wanted to sell books.

It's just Zhang Yu thinking, starting from the high-end market.

Let the upper-level people praise it first, and then detonate the entire market, so that the cost of promotion is relatively low, and Zhang Yu doesn't need to advertise everywhere by himself.

But Zhang Yu's words made Lu Zhi stupid.

"Sell, sell books." Lu Zhi was stunned.

"Is this book for sale?" Lu Zhi confirmed again.

After getting Zhang Yu's affirmative answer, Lu Zhi couldn't calm down anymore.

"How many books do you have?" Lu Zhi asked.

"Several carts, there are thousands of copies, this is the first batch, and will be sent to Luoyang in the future." Zhang Yu said calmly.

"This, this, this." Lu Zhi stammered, and then said: "The old man wants to see."

After speaking, Lu Zhi ran outside, where there was a transport team brought by Zhang Yu.

The books in the car are all wrapped in sheepskin and cowhide.

Lu Zhi couldn't hide his shock, and went to open it.

There are books neatly bundled inside.

Now Lu Zhi was really surprised.

A bamboo slip cannot be made by peeling bamboo.

It has to go through a lot of complicated processes, so that it can achieve long-term anti-moth and anti-corrosion.

Therefore, it usually takes a year to manufacture a single book, which shows its preciousness.

Ordinary people simply cannot afford to own books.

However, at this time Zhang Yu said that he wanted to sell books, but he sold paper books, and he still sold them in large quantities.

You know, now, I have never heard of anyone who specializes in selling books, only when the family is in ruins, they sell it as a last resort.

Finally Lu Zhi accepted the fact.

"Zhang Zifan, I think these books have similar handwriting and the same size. How did you do it?" Lu Zhi asked.

So Zhang Yu told Lu Zhi about the manufacturing process of the book.

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it." After listening, Lu Zhi exclaimed again and again.

"Okay, Zhang Zifan, I'll write this letter for you." Lu Zhi said and went to find a pen and ink.

"Go get a stack of papers." Zhang Yu said to his opponent.

When a piece of paper was spread on the desk for Lu Zhi to write on, he suddenly felt unable to put it down.

The importance of paper books is too meaningful for a cultural person like him.

Holding Lu Zhi's book, Zhang Yu was also moved with confidence. He didn't expect this book to be so important to this era.

What Zhang Yu didn't know was that if this book was popularized on a large scale, it would shake the foundation of the family.

Why these aristocratic families have been able to control the entire world is because they have read books.

And ordinary people, who have never seen books in their lives, how can they read.

So books can change the state of the entire society today.

The aristocratic family cannot completely control the entire officialdom.

However, this requires a relatively long process. If ordinary people want to study, they have to fill their stomachs first.

With letters and a new understanding of this era, Zhang Yu set off for Luoyang.

Seeing Lu Zhi this time, Zhang Yu had a new understanding of these books, and suddenly realized that this might be the beginning of a great change.

For example, several reforms in later generations all started from the field of education.
