Vol 4 Chapter 58: Bad, not bad

Chapter 58 is not good, nor bad
Quietly in the pine forest, the afternoon sun leaked from the treetops and fell warm on the body.
The heat wave of the hot spring still floats, staying in the wooden area where the paper is drying, even if you don't wear a fur coat, you won't feel much chill.
The roar that Cao Xiang just sent out shocked a few crows watching them, screamed much louder than Cao Xiang's roar, and protested to Cao Xiang.
Sima Qian's mouth was opened several times, and finally he closed his face sadly.
Why don't you think you're wrong when you urge someone to give up yourselves?
Perhaps it was too warm, Yun Lang yawned a lot, and looked at the two fools with tears in his eyes.
Yun Lang didn't want to turn papermaking into honor or emperor's cash cow. Although the secret recipe was stolen by him, it belonged to the entire Han nationality. However, he never thought of putting his whole family in for a noble goal. .
Sima Qian was only too acknowledging death, so he could not bear the misfortune of the rest of his life.
However, this kind of person is put into the body of the Han nationality, which is the backbone, and put into the history books of the Han nationality is the clanging ribs.
His request sounded very unreasonable, but if the paper was invented by him, this guy would have known the secret recipe long ago.
Then ... then this guy thought he had done something enough to move himself and move history, and then on a cold winter day, stepped on the execution ground with his own blood, his own life, and ordered The emperor who executed him was nailed to the stigma of history.
He forgot that although papermaking is simple, it is still a complete process, which cannot be completed by one or two people.
The reason why several warriors completed the papermaking process in half a day today, but he did not know that before they made paper, Yunlang took two months to prepare, if the time to prepare the raw materials for paper is also counted In the past, time will have to move forward for more than two years.
The cost during this period was beyond the imagination of Sima Qian, a poor and sour literati.
The biggest reason why the poor ca n’t read books is because he is poor, and even the poor ca n’t even read books. How can he build a paper workshop that costs more?
Relative to the common people, bamboo slips and wooden tablets are easier to obtain. The emperors and honoraries feel that these things are very heavy, and the poor are not dismissed. They will not think that bamboo slips and wooden tablets will cause any obstacles to their learning.
The problem is that the poor ca n’t afford to read books, and they ca n’t even use paper ... Even Guan Neihou, who is like Huo Going to Disease, feels precious when he sees the paper. Would n’t it be their lives that would make those poor people write on expensive paper? ?
In a short time, perhaps for a long time, paper cannot completely replace bamboo slips and wooden tablets.
So, who is the paper user?
There is no doubt that it is the emperor, the honorable, the official, the wealthy scholar, and definitely not the people.
In this case, will Yunlang make the paper cheaper after spreading the secret recipe?
not necessarily!
Who is the person most in need of paper?
It is the emperor Liu Che who wants to see hundreds of kilograms of bamboo slips every day, the prime minister Gong Sunhong who writes a lot of words every day, and Dong Zhongshu who urgently needs to make writing simple and easy!
Since the patrons of paper are these people, how much can paper have to do with poor people even if it is expensive?
If the paper is filled with words and then bound into a book, he can spread faster than bamboo slips and wooden tablets.
As Sima Qian said just now, he can walk thousands of miles on his own without worrying about tiredness.
If he were asked to carry bamboo slips full of 200,000 words and the wooden tablet walked thousands of miles, it would be a huge project.
Therefore, in the early days, when the number of readers was not enough, the paper seemed more important to the emperor and the court.
If you really want the price of paper to come down, you need to carry out large-scale production on the basis of fine cooperation.
Only when people's demand for paper completely surpassed the supply, then was it time for small paper mills to blossom everywhere.
Cao Xiang and Sima Qian quarreled very fiercely. When the two of them were tired after quarreling, they remembered Yun Lang, who was a real party. When he looked back, he found Yun Lang wrapped in a fur coat and slept on the table. The saliva is flowing.
Cao Xiang was vigorously awakened, Yun Lang opened his eyes blankly, wiped the corner of his mouth and smiled and said: "End of the fight?"
"Are you sleeping?" Sima Qian felt incredible.
"It's very tiring to work in the morning. Seeing that you two don't want to ignore me, I took the opportunity to take a nap. Why, the result is noisy?"
Cao Xiang hurriedly said: "You can't do anything out of the ordinary."
Sima Qian said angrily: "I will do what you dare not do."
Yun Lang smiled and said to Cao Xiang: ‘Of course we ca n’t do the standard things. "
Looking back, Sima Qian's face was full of disappointment and said: "Of course, you are the one who does the outlier."
"How to do it?"
Sima Qian was eager to try, Cao Xiang was worried.
"Yunshi Paper Workshop takes out 10% of the output every month and hands it to Sima for sale. I only need to recover the cost. As for the remaining 90% of the output, it is naturally to be handed over to the prince. Increase profits by 30% on the basis.
After Yun's withdraw all the investment, we sold the papermaking workshop to your majesty, or Gillian, and we built a small one, specializing in the production of paper for own use, including gifting relatives and friends. "
Sima Qian was very disappointed, but there was no better way. He was too lazy to say anything, and left with the thickest stack of paper.
Cao Xiang jumped onto the table and sat side by side with Yun Lang, looking at the back of Sima Qian's departure: "It's good, we do Xiaoshan, and Dashan let people like Sima do it. After all, we care more about him . "
Yun Lang looked at Cao Xiang and said with a smile: "It's not that we are more concerned than him, but that we are only ourselves in our hearts, and very few countries exist.
You and me are just two little people with the status of marquis, and others are the real big-hearted people. "
Cao Xiang jumped off the table and picked up a roll of paper and said: "Don't feel sorry, let's go, we have to do the right thing.
Since it's a gift, don't wait for too long. "
The two palace men spread a piece of paper on the long case, Liu Che took the pen and dipped it in thick ink, and began to write on the large piece of paper.
Hanli's writing method can't do it, and can only be regarded as a stroke.
Liu Che wrote very seriously, and seemed to care very much about the rules and structure. After writing a tea, he finished writing, and then took his brush and looked at his hand with joy.
Yun Lang, Cao Xiang stretched his neck to peek next to him. Liu Che saw the hard work of looking at him and asked Gong to lift the paper to show them both.
"The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying,
Vega returned home,
The warriors will stay around! "
Liu Che's words are not good, at least in Yun Lang's view, these three lines of characters should be written with wild grass to best express the meaning of the verse.
"At that time, Emperor Taizu Gao returned home and wrote these three essays in front of his father and his fellow villagers.
Emperor Taizu Gao struck Gaoge, and the ministers were at peace, and all the people wept ... We have wanted to repeat the glory of our ancestors for many years ...
Yun Lang ~ EbookFREE.me ~ I give you this song, I just hope you can stick to your heart, make new achievements for my hero, and let me achieve my long-cherished wish as soon as possible.
Now that the paper-making workshop is about to be completed, I will give you a cheap, monthly paper-making workshop paper, I buy 70% of the parity, and the remaining 30% for you to sell, I can not ask for the money. "
Yun Lang said: "After the paper comes out, after all, it will affect thousands of threads. The books and archives of the national dynasty, as well as the success of the hundred officials, a lot of paper will be used to copy the documents.
Therefore, Weichen thought that His Majesty would buy 90% of the paper mill's output at a cost price of 30%, and the remaining 10% would be sold to the children of poor people at a cost price. "
Liu Che said with a smile: "You can think clearly, once I made a decision, you have no chance to change it."
Yun Lang smiled and said: "Although the loss of some money will make Weichen feel heartbroken, he will let Weichen sleep well."
Liu Che smiled and shook his head: "Want peace of mind? What you want is luxury. Forget it. I am in a really good mood today. Just satisfy your wishes."
