Chapter 455 - 455 445 Finding a Way

?Chapter 455: Chapter 445: Finding a Way Chapter 455: Chapter 445: Finding a Way Shen Yunfang took out the first batch of finished products and inspected them carefully.

Due to the time constraints, and the fact that printing could only be done by Zhou Tian, only three designs from a hundred spring festival couplet styles had been printed, with a thousand copies of each design.

“We were in such a rush that the plate-making master was only able to produce three plates in one day,” Ma Liguo explained the reason for having just three designs.

Looking at the couplets, Shen Yunfang nodded her head. She knew that the current craftsmanship couldn’t reach the exquisite quality of future computer plate-making. However, the plate-makers of her time were genuinely skilled. Though slow, their pure manual production resulted in a quality that was still very impressive.

“These three plates are good, but if we continue at this speed, we won’t be able to print all of the spring couplets we’ve taken orders for by the New Year. We need to think of a solution,” Shen Yunfang was quite satisfied with the finished products but was concerned about the slow pace.

Ma Liguo frowned and scratched his head as she spoke. These craftsmen were quite particular, and when he went to supervise, he became very anxious watching their slow pace. Unable to resist, he had urged them a few times, only to receive a cool reply that plate-making is a delicate task and they could go faster if he wanted, but then they wouldn’t guarantee the quality.

This put Ma Liguo in the position of choosing between speed and quality—rushing would compromise the quality, and quality takes time, so no flippant comments were allowed.
