Food always brings people closer together. Eating fish sashimi, sitting on the second floor of the literary museum, watching the drizzle of welcoming guests, Dongyang Jun suddenly had endless things to say.

"It is said that the old Qin is bitter and cold, but Bai Zi didn't know the miserable miserableness of the Zhou royal family? You might imagine that my king wanted South Korea to enshrine a carriage that matched the emperor's ceremonies, but Han Hou said that the emperor's ceremonies were not among the vassals. The emperor should have six divisions, but my king could not afford the six divisions, just based on the size of Luoyi? The emperor rewarded all the land to the princes. Now they have grown up, but they regard the emperor as nothing. Only when they think of asking for a title and needing the emperor to give meat, will they be more respectful. What is the conscience? How much do you think you want 500,000 gold? How much!"

"This guy must be crazy about being poor..."

Wu Zhuan tried hard to stuff delicious fish sashimi into his mouth, and stared at Dongyang Jun with wide eyes. He thought that Yueguo was miserable enough, but Sister Lu Zhen said that the master was a very capable person and he must listen to him and please him. In this way, Yueguo could get his help, and the people of Yueguo could live a stable and happy life. Unexpectedly, the dignified Zhou royal family would be so miserable? The louder the Dongyang Jun spoke, the more he seemed to be crying for the master. Didn’t he just want to ask for more money?

"The decline of the royal family is caused by hundreds of years of accumulated problems and cannot be changed for a while. Why should Dongyang Lord be so moved?"

Bai Dong nodded to Nie Zhu, Nie Zhu stood up, took out a book from his backpack and placed it on the table.

"It is impossible to have 500,000 gold, about 300,000. I can make the decision on this number, but I also have to ask the Zhou royal family to help me do something."

"Help you succeed? What's the matter? You're going to break up the soil and make a country. Just ask my king to give you a title?"

"Dongyang Jun is joking. You will understand as long as you read this book. Dong thinks that writing is the first, and whenever you prosper the world, you must first promote literary affairs. But when learning in the world writes books, you always hold a pencil sharpener. When you write books, you will try your best to carve the bamboo slips. Although there are pens, inks, silks, and paper, you only make things that are suitable for use. When you encounter a work of building a building, you still have to carve it on the bamboo slips, but you will not write it on the paper. This is not a paper book, but the habit is not as good as the bamboo slips. But it is difficult to change in a hurry. If this old habit is not changed, it will inevitably be hindered by literary affairs! If a 'calligraphy' is published, it will lead to scholars' scrambling to write and write. It can also cultivate their minds and nature, and become the elegant interest of scholars. Isn't that a good thing for this world?"

"Oh? Bai Zi can indeed make a statement from his predecessors and a matter from his predecessors. Could it be that there is the 'calligraphy' you mentioned in this book? But why do you need my king to help you? As soon as Bai Zi Wenjian posted it, there will be a gathering of scholars in the world... Good words! It turns out that the words can be written like this?"

Dongyang Jun opened the book while speaking. He found that it was written by Yuan Sheng Zhou Gongdan, "The Oath of the Pastoral King", which was about denounced Zhou of Shang, declared that he was practicing heavenly punishment, announced combat discipline, encouraged soldiers to kill the enemy bravely, etc.

When Bai Dong was copying this Yuan Shengwen, he used large seal scripts. Although the brushwork was complicated, he had unique features in dealing with strokes and font structure. The font looked novel and vigorous, which made this article even more majestic. Dongyang Jun applauded, but he always felt that these words were good, but he still lacked something, but he couldn't blame him.

"Do you think these words are written very well, but you always feel like you can't stretch them out? The words clearly contain charm, but it seems to be blocked by the font itself, but that's the case?"

Later calligraphy began in official script, and was prosperous in regular script and running script, but reached its peak when it appeared in cursive script. However, before official script, there were no famous calligraphers in Chinese history. First, papermaking techniques were not invented at that time, and brushes were just a simple stationery for scholars to write shorthand or merchants to do accounts; second, the popular large seal script at this time was a lot of strokes, which not only restricted the writer's imagination, but also was not convenient for writing with a brush. Writing large seal script with a brush is not called writing, it should be called "painting".

Bai Dong was a member of the university calligraphy club in later generations. He had copied the fonts of many calligraphy masters, but he was asked to write large seal scripts, but he still couldn't stretch it out.

"That's right, that's what it means. Bai Zi summarized it so well!"

Dongyang Jun slammed the table excitedly. He felt this way when he was reading the words just now, but he couldn't summarize it. Now that Bai Dong said it, he felt very happy.

"Bai Dong thought that everything in the world should be simple from complex to simple, and only human greed can be simple from simple to complex. Therefore, those who seek simplicity are the innate purity, and those who seek complications are the acquired turbidity. What is the purpose of the Bai family to invent pen, ink, paper and inkstone? It is to make the world's affairs simple from complex to simple, so that the literature will prosper and rituals and music will be restored. But if the words cannot be simplified, what is the meaning of the Bai family doing all this?"

"Does Bai Zi need to improve the font?"

"I'm afraid the improvement is far from enough. I want to create new fonts and promote them all over the world!"

Li Si changed the large seal script into simplified Chinese to small seal script to facilitate writing, which can be called "improvement". But Bai Dong became a little impatient and believed that the scholars of this era were not idiots, and they could fully understand and accept official script; just like those who could understand traditional Chinese characters, they could also understand the simplified Chinese characters in mainland China, and mainlanders could also understand the traditional Chinese characters in Hong Kong and Taiwan. If it is difficult to do this, it is actually difficult to change people's existing habits.

To change the habits of scholars all over the world, it is particularly important for the Zhou royal family to be famous. The princes of all countries only look down on the strength of the royal family, but in fact they still have a desire for the royal family in their hearts. As for the school of the world, Confucianism will not talk about it. Although the Legalists are realistic and serve the king, they will naturally not oppose the royal family. The Mo family, who loves the world, will not refuse such good things as simplifying the complex. Although they sometimes become assassins, they are also the greatest craftsmen and scientists of this era.

"You want to create characters? This...this..."

Dongyang Jun was obviously a little messy and didn't know what to say. Wu Zhuan looked at the master with great admiration. What is the master's ability to write a word? Dongyang Jun was too unaware, just a earthen frog squatting at the bottom of the well.

"The newly created font is right behind. Dongyang Jun will see it after turning a few pages. Dong has no other requirements. He just hopes that at the literary meeting three days later, the Zhou royal family can express their support in public and take the royal family as the leader. In the future, the royal family's documents and historical records, correspondence with letters and letters from various countries, and even issuing the king's orders, they will use this new font. What does Dongyang Jun think?"

"Well... Bai Zi created a new font with a flat shape, but the strokes are round, and the structure is simpler and clearer, but it does not hinder the identification. It's really good... With this new font, Bai Zi's calligraphy looks more beautiful and beautiful. The strange feeling that he could not stretch and stretch was gone before, even though he was clearly intellect, he could not stretch and stretch. "

Lishu is more suitable for writing brushes than Li Si's modified small seal script. It is not only convenient and fast to write, but also pays more attention to the principle of square, roundness and harmony of yin and yang. It is not like seal script that only emphasizes the cumbersome strokes and round fonts. It is better to look at close range, but it is a goose egg at distance. I didn't see this style before. Once I saw it, anyone who is a little familiar with writing can discover the beauty of it, let alone a "high-level intellectual" like Dongyangjun who has been enlightened since childhood. When I saw it, I couldn't put it down and wanted to lie on the book to appreciate it carefully. I just admired it, but forgot to answer Bai Dong.

Wu Zhuan also came over to see it, and picked up the chopsticks and dipped them in fish sauce and imitated them on the table. He actually learned it well. Although he was not as strict as Bai Dong's rules and style, he was much better than the seal script he wrote by himself. He didn't realize he had a long and brimming. In the past, he was always ridiculed by Sister Cao'er for his writing in an ugly way. In the future, he learned the new style of the master and was no longer afraid of being laughed at.

"What do you think Dongyang Jun? I know you are the emperor's uncle and can decide this matter."

"Uh, this matter... seems to be a little difficult... Bai Zi also knows that the royal family is poor and the emperor is worried. How can he still care about these other people's affairs?"

Dongyang Jun pulled his mind from the book, and his expression miraculously became much more indifferent. He shook his head slightly and gently turned the fish sashimi with his chopsticks, which looked like those greedy officials who liked to pick their fingers the most in later generations.

"If this matter is done, the emperor will be wisely praised in future generations. Could it be that the emperor does not care about the reputation behind him?"

"If this happens, you Baizi is the one who is most famous? What the royal family wants now is not a false reputation. Seeing that the king did not have a gorgeous carriage when he was traveling, the queen had to carefully calculate even using some Yandi rouge. The prince wanted to travel around the countries, but those countries refused to bear the mere road capital. Dongyang felt distressed!"

Dongyang Jun looked at Bai Dong calmly, and his eyes suddenly turned red: "The royal family doesn't want anything else, they just want money!"

He had decided to ask for money.

"Well... In addition to the 300,000 yuan I personally paid for the tribute 300,000 yuan. But if I lent it to the royal family, I will return it slowly if I have the chance in the future. What do you think Dongyang Jun think?"

Bai Dong chuckled lightly, like a cunning male fox.

The text of more than 2,800 words, and a hundred words more than 3,000 can make more money, but Guangming thinks that it is time to break it, so you have to break it here.
