Chapter 244 Papermaking, mastering the power of knowledge inheritance
Concubine Yan noticed that Su Qingyun was staring at her blankly, her pretty face turned red and she said softly, "What are you looking at?"
Su Qingyun chuckled and took a sip of tea.
"Of course it's to look at the beauties."
"Have you seen enough?"
Concubine Yan's beautiful eyes slightly curved, revealing a hint of a smile.
"Can't get enough of this beauty? You can't get enough of it, right?"
As Su Qingyun said this, she reached out and pulled Concubine Yan into her arms, and a faint fragrance hit her nostrils.
Concubine Yan was just frightened by his sudden move and screamed, but did not struggle.
It was the first time that the two of them were so close, and even the fine hair on each other's faces could be seen clearly.
Concubine Yan was not disgusted by Su Qingyun's smell of wine, and instead gently closed her eyes.
Facing her unrestrained look, Su Qingyun kissed her directly without hesitation.
"uh-huh…"
The lips parted for a long time, and Concubine Yan left Su Qingyun's arms like a rabbit.
Her pretty face was on fire, and even her ears were a little red.
Su Qingyun still had some unfinished thoughts, but seeing Concubine Yan looking at him warily, she could only slap her mouth and express her regret.
"Not before the wedding..."
Concubine Yan's voice was as thin as a mosquito's fly. If Su Qingyun hadn't had good ears, he really wouldn't have been able to hear her clearly.
Hearing this, Su Qingyun laughed and then nodded.
It seems that Concubine Yan misunderstood her because of her actions, thinking that he wanted to do something tonight.
After all, a person who drinks a little alcohol is indeed prone to do things that he normally would not dare to do or would not do.
There is a saying that goes well, drinking makes people timid.
But Su Qingyun never thought about what she would do to Concubine Yan tonight.
What I did just now was really uncontrollable, and I couldn't help it for a while.
But he only touched upon it briefly and did not go in depth. He was very restrained, okay?
If it were Yin Luoxia or anyone else, it would definitely be more than just words.
At least I will experience it with my own hands to show respect.
But facing Concubine Yan, he had always planned to save that matter on the wedding night.
When Concubine Yan saw Su Qingyun nodding, she also breathed a sigh of relief.
Now she still felt her lips burning, and her heart was beating fast.
She didn't hate this feeling either.
...
In the days that followed, Su Qingyun was busy experimenting with papermaking techniques. He built a workshop specifically for papermaking in Taixu Wonderland, and asked the villagers living at the foot of the mountain to join in and help make paper.
Ten days flew by.
Concubine Yan did not ask much about where Su Qingyun had been during this period, but stayed in Xiaoyaoju without going out.
She thought Su Qingyun would tell her everything at the right time, so she was not in a hurry.
The Moon Goddess came twice during this period, both times inviting Su Qingyun to the Nine Palaces of the Divine Capital to discuss his marriage to Concubine Yan.
However, Su Qingyun postponed it because he didn't have time for the time being. Papermaking was also a big problem. Although he had the skills, it would take time to perfect the skills. He was extremely cautious about this matter.
After all, papermaking was involved in his money-making business.
Now that he had tasted the sweetness of the exclusive prayer pool, if it weren't for the fact that he needed to keep a certain amount of Heavenly Coins for emergencies, he would have quit thinking about it.
There are really a lot of treasures in the exclusive prayer pool, and the quality is also very good. The only drawback is that it costs money.
But this may also be his shortcoming.
But fortunately, dimensionality reduction attacks like papermaking exist.
Compared with the previous main industry of Tianwaitian, papermaking is the real money maker.
After all, neither eating, drinking nor having fun are necessities for those wealthy and long-established forces.
Some people even skip eating, drinking and having fun in order to practice cultivation and save all unnecessary expenses, so they won’t be able to earn their money.
But mastering papermaking means mastering the vitality of these people, the inheritance of knowledge.
The most precious wealth in this world is knowledge. There are countless schools of thought, and they value ancient books far more than others.
The emergence of paper can reduce the difficulty of original knowledge inheritance and facilitate the inheritance and dissemination of knowledge.
For those who want to promote their own doctrines, this is totally a no-brainer.
I would like to ask, which one is more popular among people, a bamboo slip or a book?
A lightweight book of course!
Su Qingyun's only regret is that he does not have printing technology. Otherwise, if combined with papermaking technology, he would be invincible.
It is completely possible to pass on the knowledge monopolized by the nobles to the people of the world, and then the current official system, which is almost fixed, can be completely broken.
But having papermaking skills is already very good, at least now he can definitely make a lot of money just by selling paper.
When the time comes, these various schools of thought might be able to fight over a piece of paper.
Thinking of this, Su Qingyun had some bad taste.
After ten days, the first batch of paper was successfully produced.
Papermaking using the ancient method is not as fast, and the quality of the paper produced is also very poor.
However, the papermaking skills provided by the system are very unreasonable. You can directly use the unique products in Taixu Wonderland to make paper, which not only shortens the time, but also greatly improves the quality of the paper.
Su Qingyun returned to Xiaoyaoju with a piece of paper he had just made.
As soon as he came back, he hid in the study room, ready to use it and take a look.
Concubine Yan sensed Su Qingyun's aura and immediately came to check the situation. Then she saw Su Qingyun holding a pen in his hand and writing on an item that looked like plain silk.
"Huh? What is this?"
Su Qingyun noticed Concubine Yan when she came in, but he concentrated on writing and did not look at her. He only stopped writing when the other party asked her.
It is written on the paper: The Tao can be the Tao, but it is not the eternal Tao. The name can be the name, but it is not the eternal name. The nameless is the beginning of all things, but the name is the mother of all things.
He smiled, picked up the paper and handed it to Concubine Yan.
Concubine Yan gently touched the paper, feeling the special texture in her hand, and felt confused.
It's not cloth or silk, it's a bit rough but not obvious.
"This is paper, used for writing. What do you think of using this instead of bamboo slips?"
"Replace the bamboo slips!"
Concubine Yan was frightened by Su Qingyun's thoughts, her beautiful eyes widened slightly, as if she felt very incredible.
"Are you going to make this paper these days?"
She immediately connected the paper in front of her with the fact that Su Qingyun had been missing from time to time.
Su Qingyun did not refute, there was nothing to hide in this matter.
"Yes, I am indeed going to work on this. What do you think of this paper?"
"It is indeed much more convenient to compare bamboo slips, it is soft and convenient, and it seems that more things can be written and recorded on paper of the same size compared to bamboo slips, and it can completely replace bamboo slips!"
Concubine Yan did not hesitate to praise the paper in her hand, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
Chapter completed!
