Chapter 913: Cheap paper, soaring demand

As the spell was completed, the surface of the central reaction pool in the workshop was suddenly covered with a layer of smoke, accompanied by a series of high-frequency vibrations of sawdust and water mist.
As Chateau adjusted the intensity and angle of the smashing force field, this layer of smoke soon fell into the pool and infiltrated a yellow-brown twisted abstract pattern in the clear pool water.
Immediately afterwards, more sawdust was disintegrated by the [Smashing Force Field] and mixed in the water body, turning the otherwise clear reaction pool into a turbidity.
Later, while maintaining the [Smashing Force Field], Chateau continued to throw scattered small pieces of wood into the reaction tank, until the mixture in the reaction tank reached a certain concentration, he stopped, and explained:
"This is the most primitive wood pulp! Paper can also be made in this state, but the paper produced is very loose, so there must be a subsequent pickling step! As for the amount of wood put in a pulp, there are not many restrictions, as long as Don't be too thick, you can slowly discover and perfect these in the future manufacturing."
In fact, in the papermaking process of [Projection Plane·Arcane Empire], there are specific figures for how much water and how much wood is put into it.
However, the Arcane Empire also failed to create paper that could be used to make magic scrolls, so Chateau didn't say anything, let them try, maybe they could gain something extra!
Then, Xia Duo continued to use the "acid baptism" in the papermaking series of spells. In this process, the color of the wood pulp became slightly lighter, and the thickness of the wood pulp also found some subtle changes.
After the [acid neutralization], the color of the wood pulp became lighter again. At this time, Xia Duo stopped again and explained:
"At this point, even if the wood pulp preparation is completely completed, the next step is to shape and dry. I will not demonstrate the spell. I will demonstrate another way, and this is what you will often come into contact with in the future."
In fact, the previous steps can also be completed by illegal techniques, but Xia Duo is in a hurry. If he does not use techniques, it would take a lot of time to just crush the wood to make the original wood pulp. This is beyond his imagination.
...
Taking out a square sieve with a side not much bigger than a human head from the portable space, Xia Duo walked directly to the edge of the reaction pool, squatted down and smashed the wood pulp with the sieve a few times, and finally lay it flat and gently raised it.
After taking out the sieve, Chateau explained to Cecily, Gardner and others, while explaining: "This is the unaired paper! If you make your own paper in the future, you can choose to dry it, but I will directly I'll show you the results!"
With that said, Xia Duo directly aroused the air above the sieve to accelerate its flow, and at the same time dispelled the moisture in the air and increased the volatilization of the moisture on the sieve.
Almost blinking, the wood pulp on the sieve dries at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then Chateau took the wood pulp paper from the sieve and handed it to Cecily.
"This is papermaking!"
"This—is this true?"
Even though I have seen the entire papermaking process and the paper is already in my hands, Cecily still feels a little unbelievable when he touches this faintly moist wood pulp paper.
She stared at the paper in her hand blankly, unable to speak for a while.
And the low-level mages in Gardner and the magic mechanics office were also a little stunned. A parchment paper of this size was about 2 silver coins, which was almost a day's salary of an ordinary person.
And the same size wizard paper is twice the price of parchment paper.
They knew that the elven paper was made by the elves using plants, but now they were shocked to see that Xia Duo made a piece of the legendary elven paper so easily.
"The cost of this piece of paper, if there is no magic involved at all, the cost may be less than 1 copper coin, but I suggest that the pickling and neutralization process is better completed by magic, so that the quality is not too difficult to grasp. As for the cost, it also does not exceed 1 copper coin!"
Of course, this cost is the cost after large-scale manufacturing. If it is only produced in a small amount, it is not necessarily. It is like now, how much the renovation of this workshop costs, and the cost of casting and time of the arcanist Xia Duo how many.
"My lord, is this elven paper?" Cecily asked suddenly.
"What is the difference between yes and no?"
Chateau took out a piece of so-called wizard paper, flicked it twice at random, and put it in Cecily's hand. "The function of paper is nothing more than writing or making magic scrolls. There is no need to consider other factors."
After he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Garner, took out a thin booklet from the portable space and handed it to the other party. Then he said:
"I have demonstrated the basic process of papermaking just now. Now I will give you the complete process. There are magical and illegal versions. The Magician Office will master it as soon as possible. The daily writing paper for the Tower of Time is up to you. !"
"Give it to us?" Garnar held the booklet with a surprised expression.
"Yes, leave it to you, hope you don't let me down!"
After that, Xia Duo didn't plan to stay any longer, and called Cecily who was still a little out~EbookFREE.me~, take me to the warehouse! "
"okay!"
At this time, Cecily came back to her senses. Thinking of what Xia Duo had just said, she immediately realized a problem. The Tower of Time was almost ready to mass produce Elf Paper!
And it's still very cheap wizard paper, which makes Cecily's mind dizzy, how much money should this make!
Until she brought Xia Duo to the empty warehouse, Xia Duo filled the warehouse with a lot of logs, she gradually calmed down, thinking of the previous confidentiality, and asked unwillingly:
"My lord, can't we sell these papers to others?"
"of course can!"
Xia Duo gave her a weird look, "However, at least we have to wait for the basic needs of the Tower of Time to be met!"
Not to mention that nearly a thousand people in the Tower of Time can barely use parchment paper to maintain their daily consumption, but when they know that the new paper is cheap, the consumption will no longer be the same!
Parchment paper can be scraped and rewritten repeatedly, and the price is high, to have such a low consumption, but the new wood pulp paper cannot be scraped repeatedly and can only be used for one time.
But compared to parchment paper, a few tenths of the price can completely offset the reusability of parchment paper and can save all writing records. Who wants to scratch it repeatedly!
It can be expected that when new paper appears, a paper frenzy will surely be set off.
In addition to the Tower of Time, there are also Savill collars and Daxia collars. There are many places to use paper, and it is far from the time to sell it to the outside world.
Moreover, selling a large amount of cheap paper now can easily cause all kinds of troubles. Although Xia Duo is confident to face it, wouldn't it be better to have less!
