Chapter 1060

Lu Yu, standing to the side, hadn't said much.

Since joining Great Qin, she had witnessed Qin Mu's various reforms with her own eyes.

How should she put it?

Qin Mu's thinking was unrestrained and would absolutely not be bound by some inherent views of this era.

Regardless of the issue, he had his own profound insights.

This was what Lu Yu admired most.

"Your Majesty, Great Qin is prosperous and strong because of technology, and this is also what other countries covet.

If these books are published publicly, I fear these technologies will be leaked to other countries."

Leaking technology was a great taboo.

Especially the Great Tang, which always wanted to steal/learn something from Great Qin.

Back then, when Li Ke came to Changancheng, he had racked his brains to steal Great Qin's book-making techniques for the Great Tang.

At that time, the Great Tang didn't understand printing techniques.

Now, once these books were printed, a massive amount of technology would be revealed to the world.

Letting those countries pick up a bargain for nothing.

Qin Mu looked at Lu Yu with a smile in his eyes.

"Lu Yu, you want to keep these technologies secret forever, and then use these technologies to earn money from the world, is that it?" Lu Yu heard the teasing tone in Qin Mu's words.

But she couldn't deny that she was harboring such thoughts.

"Your Majesty, since ancient times, artisans have kept their unique techniques secret; this idea isn't wrong, is it?"

Qin Mu found it quite funny looking at Lu Yu's timid appearance.

This young lady, even regarding her own very firm views, didn't dare to speak with confidence anymore.

Perhaps he had overturned too many ideas in their hearts.

"The idea of keeping secrets cannot be called wrong, but it is not entirely correct either."

This sentence left Li Ke and Lu Yu bewildered again.

So is it correct or not?

Qin Mu wasn't trying to be mysterious; it was just that for this kind of thing, one had to grasp the scale.
