Become the city lord from today

"Lord City Lord, everyone who came yesterday has made arrangements. Many people are grateful to you, Lord City Lord, for your gift."

Buff reported on the mission. Yesterday, when the new slaves saw the allocated houses and wheat, many of them knelt down in front of him.

This scared him, and he quickly reprimanded Liu Feng. Lift it out, praise Liu Feng's good deeds, and tell them to stay safe and work hard.

"Well done!"Liu Feng put down the document. It contained some material data and the general situation of the slaves. He did not expect that more than 400 of these slaves were orcs.

Liu Feng couldn't help but sigh, that prince named Dis So cruel. In order to disguise his whereabouts, he actually treated the orcs like slaves.

"By the way, are there many people going to your school to learn how to read now?"Liu Feng asked Buff, the literacy rate should be focused on.

"A lot, a lot of people go there during the day now."Speaking of this, Buff was very excited. He didn't expect that so many people would be willing to learn Chinese characters.

"So, how many people do you think will be able to read after this winter? Liu

Feng folded his hands and asked,"Can half of the people in Xiyang City know how to read?""

"this……"Buff frowned and counted the number of literate people in the school in his mind. Finally he shook his head and said,"Lord City Lord, after the winter, only 20 people should be literate."

"Is the school not enough? Liu Feng asked

"Yes, the school can only accommodate fifty people at a time. If there are more, there will be no space for everyone to practice calligraphy."Buff sighed. After all, setting up the sand table takes up space. The most important thing is that we don't have books.

Now only primary schools have books. The rest can only go to school to write and practice. They may forget it after they go back. This is the most important thing. Time-consuming.

Liu Feng also thought about this problem. The last hurdle of movable type printing has not been overcome, and that is the problem of ink.

For example, the cost of printing books in primary schools is very high, mainly because the ink raw materials are relatively small, and scientific research The Ministry is now preparing a cheaper ink, which is already in the experimental stage.

As long as the cost price drops, it is time to promote it. Otherwise, a book costs one silver coin and sells it for a few silver coins. Who will the common people be? affordable?

"Bang bang bang!"

Just when Liu Feng was thinking about how many more schools to establish, there was a knock on the study door.

"Come in! Liu Feng said softly

"Gah!"

Mina walked in, holding an iron box in her hand. She had just returned from the scientific research department, and she still had to deliver some secret documents with her own hands.

"Master, the Scientific Research Department has something to hand over." Mina put the iron box in front of Liu Feng, then sat on the desk with her hips raised, her cat's tail wagging.

"oh? Liu Feng raised his eyebrows, thinking that something like that had been created. He flipped the code lock, opened the iron lid, and saw two or three things lying inside.

"Huh? It's actually this."Liu Feng said with a smile,"It really comes at the right time, whatever is missing comes."

He took out the alien version of the pencil from the iron box. No, it should be said to be a charcoal pencil, or a charcoal pencil rolled out of paper.

"Master, what is this?"An Li, who was taking notes on the side, came over and looked at the few small sticks and the square piece of wood in Liu Feng's hand.

"This is called a paper roll charcoal pen. It is a good thing and can solve many people's writing problems."Liu Feng shook the paper roll and charcoal pen in his hand.

"Can this be written? Enli took one and looked at it, wondering,"Master, both ends of this thing are flat, how do you write it?""

"This requires the use of a pencil sharpener."Liu Feng picked up the small wooden cube on the side. The principle and method of the pen sharpener are very simple.

Put the paper roll and charcoal pen into it, and the scraps of paper will fall out as soon as you turn it. Soon the pen tip will be sharpened. Liu Feng pulled it over A piece of paper, write on it, and a line of elegant black characters will appear.

"Wow? this……"Enri stared at her brown eyes in surprise. She picked up the pencil sharpener and started sharpening it. She was soon sharpened. She also started writing, but she used a little more force halfway and the pen tip broke.

"Don't push too hard. Liu Feng chuckled and handed the pen to Buff, asking him to try it too.

"This is amazing, so convenient……"After Buff wrote it, he kept praising

"Use this to scratch off writing. Liu Feng picked up two thumb-sized pieces of iron and handed them to An Li.

"Huh? What an amazing pen."Enri used an iron piece to easily scratch off the handwriting, which surprised her again and again.

"Lord City Lord, if you have this kind of pen, you can copy the calligraphy home and practice it."Buff said in surprise

"Of course, the price of this pen is not very expensive."Liu Feng nodded and said, he can't make pencils because he lacks raw materials like graphite. Don't even think about ballpoint pens. It's fine for just using it in your own castle. If it is promoted, I'm afraid it will tire him to death. He I don’t want to be a cargo porter. I need ballpoint pens today, pencils tomorrow, and this or that the day after tomorrow.

So Liu Feng thinks it’s more practical to come up with something that can be produced and promoted in this era. As for the earth’s goods, we still need them. Just use it.

The nib of a ballpoint pen is a high-tech thing on the other side of the earth, so it is stuck.

As for the fountain pen, the scientific research department is still debugging the nib, as well as the matching ink and the problem of sealing the ink. I'm afraid it will take a long time to really research it.

These two are not possible, but charcoal pencils are still possible. Grind the charcoal into powder, add clay, mix and form, squeeze and shape with a special mold, and then roll it up with paper. , this is a paper roll charcoal pen.

Compared with writing directly with charcoal, the paper roll charcoal pen writes darker words. Because of the clay, the writing is smoother. After all, the overall density of charcoal is higher than that of paper roll charcoal. The pen is poor.

Although it is a little worse than the pen made of reed rods and the quill pen, these two pens dipped in ink for writing, the disadvantage is the quality of writing, that is, the font is difficult to preserve.

In comparison, the paper roll charcoal pen is better In terms of cheapness and simplicity, there is no need to be limited by the issue of ink. After all, ink is not affordable for common people, but only nobles and wealthy businessmen can afford it.

"Buff, I will open two more schools, and paper rolls and charcoal pens will be provided soon. I want at least half of the people in Xiyang City to be literate by the beginning of next spring. Liu Feng said seriously

"yes!"

Buff responded respectfully. With this magical pen and two schools, he can still complete this task.

Every time he feels that some difficult problems can be solved very quickly if the city lord takes action. It can be solved.

Now, he can brag to his grandson when he goes back. How is that brat doing at school today? He won't bully other classmates again, right?
