Yao Yun is not surprised by the popularity of paper and celadon.
Silk books are too expensive and slippers are easy to obtain, but the carriers are cumbersome and difficult to produce. Only businessmen with a little discernment can see the superiority of paper, and it is reasonable to flock to it.
Compared with pottery, porcelain is harder, does not absorb water, and has a translucent glass glaze on the surface. It is beautiful and elegant. It is favored by merchants and merchants compared with nobles.
"Cang Man, Hu Yi, you have done a good job. Don't take action on the remaining papers and porcelain. We will wait and see what happens before making any plans."
Cang Man and Hu Yi nodded.
Xiaozhujing raised his hand and said, "Dad, are we getting rich? We can earn so much, so much, countless gold!"
"Yes! Hahahaha~"
Xiaozhujing's description of "too much gold to count" obviously made everyone laugh, and they all smiled kindly.
Liusu glanced at Xiaozhujing angrily: "Silly girl, how much gold is there to count? Don't say that I am your master, it's too embarrassing."
Xiao Zhujing put her hands on her hips and looked proud: "There are too many to count, and it means very, very many things, and I don't even understand it!"
Seeing the big and small female goblins bickering, Yao Yun couldn't help but laugh, and felt relaxed for no reason.
...
Soon, everyone dispersed, and Yao Yun stopped the bald dragon, and then communicated with the bald dragon about his revelation of the "Book of Wind God" and the thoughts that had been buried deep in the center.
At first, the bald dragon just listened casually with a relaxed expression. Then he looked solemn and surprised, and in the end he frowned in thought.
The changes in his demeanor are really changeable, and Yao Yun is quite uneasy when he sees them. It seems that he is just a bold idea. Many of these places require you to cross the river by feeling the stones and keep exploring. Although the bald dragon is usually unreliable, he
The realm is so profound that it might be able to give Yao Yun some inspiration.
Yao Yun: "Uncle Long, why is there a problem?"
The bald dragon did not have a playful smile this time. He hesitated for a while before speaking: "Your Majesty, your idea is really unheard of, but... the talisman is indeed the key to levering the vitality of the world. The power of ordinary people's minds, blood and vitality can also be stimulated.
move
Low-level witchcraft, but Prince, you have never thought about it. Only the nobles can read and the common people are illiterate. According to your assumption, it requires many people to read and read, and many witches can do it. Prince, your idea is a bit unrealistic.
."
Yao Yun breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. As long as it was feasible, teaching people to read and write and learn spells didn't count at all. So Yao Yun smiled and said: "The people are illiterate, just teach them to read and write. What's the difficulty? Reading has never been done."
Pick up the children and let them read and write during the off-farm time, and teach them some humble cultivation techniques. We don’t expect them to become Qi Practitioners, they just need to be able to barely reach the level of a witch boy.”
The bald dragon shook his head: "Your Majesty, it's not as simple as you said. Reading and literacy is a privilege only for the nobles. Even if the Crown Prince gives the common people a chance to read and write, where do the common people's books come from? Silk books are expensive and slippers are not made.
It’s not easy. It takes a lot of time to write a book. It can’t be that easy unless..."
Speaking of unless, the bald dragon paused, as if he had remembered something, and his eyes exuded surprise and surprise: "This... Your Majesty, you mean papermaking, paper, yes, we have this treasure."
Unknowingly, the "you" in Bald Dragon's mouth became "you". This subtle change came from the heart, and neither Bald Dragon nor Yao Yun noticed it.
Yao Yun smiled and nodded: "Well, papermaking is indeed the most important part, but it is not all. There are ways to make books more accessible, open up people's wisdom, and control the vitality of the world."
What Yao Yun is talking about later is of course printing to print books. With these two powerful tools, the spread of knowledge will be much more convenient, and reading and literacy will not be exclusive to the nobles.
The bald dragon looked at Yao Yun with a shocked expression on his face: "Your Majesty, your thoughts are really far-reaching. This is something that no god or nobleman has ever done since ancient times. If that happens one day, I don't know what will happen to the world."
A sea change.”
Yao Yun said solemnly: "Uncle Long, just watch. The changes are so great that you can hardly imagine them. They are earth-shaking and changing with each passing day. Maybe within a few decades, the changes will be comparable to the eternal night!"
There is a vicissitude in Yao Yun's voice that does not match his age, as if an old man who has witnessed the vicissitudes of life and the evolution of the world are telling the past and future, and his eyes seem to have witnessed the years.
The bald dragon couldn't help but feel a little lost. At this moment, the prince was confident and determined. Unknowingly, the bald dragon thought of a majestic figure, the benevolent and virtuous saint king, the emperor Di Xi.
But soon, Yao Yun sighed again: "But there are still many roads that need to be explored right now. The power of ordinary people is limited after all. Even if they are given spells as crowbars, it will be difficult to leverage the vitality of the world."
The bald dragon came back from his trance: "Your Majesty, maybe jade can be used. Jade is a treasure that connects the vitality of heaven and earth and accumulates the vitality of heaven and earth. Many utensils are made of jade. We can consider using jade."
Yao Yun's eyes immediately lit up. Jade is indeed the best material. Jade can be a medium for communicating the vitality of heaven and earth. It is naturally capable of storing the vitality of heaven and earth. Many qi-refiners refine fine jade into instruments and cast spells.
It has to be said that in this world, jade is a natural "battery" that integrates charging, storage and output. There is nothing else more suitable than it.
Yao Yun felt that his eyes suddenly became brighter, and many of the problems he had been confused about before were now solved.
As the saying goes, gold is valuable but jade is priceless. In this world, the price of beautiful jade is more expensive than gold. However, Yao Yun is not too worried. What he wants is not beautiful jade that can be used to make high-quality utensils. Miscellaneous jade can meet his requirements.
, this way the difficulty will be much less.
Thinking like this, Yao Yun quickly continued the discussion with Bald Dragon. Yao Yun just regretted that the second elder Wu Tong was not around at this moment. If he had the profound knowledge of the second elder, he would definitely benefit a lot.
One person and one dragon were discussing, and time passed quickly. The day for the monarch's banquet was getting closer and closer, and the monarchs from various countries also rushed to Chu Capital one after another.
However, the people of Chudu did not pay much attention to the kings of various countries at this moment. Countless people's eyes fell on a novel thing that happened in Chudu.
That is a magical commodity brought by caravans from other places.
One is a piece of paper that can record text, which is different from silk books and slips. This kind of paper is not only light and easy to carry, but also easy to write text. It is very magical. Many businessmen with a sharp eye were shocked when they saw it and asserted that this thing is comparable to silk books.
, slips.
The other piece is pottery as beautiful as glass, no, I heard it was called porcelain. Many noble people couldn't put it down after seeing it for the first time, waving gold and wanting to buy it.
The monarch's banquet is approaching, and this little episode has become a topic of conversation.
