Three Kingdoms: I choose to assist Sun Jian

Before a new thing comes out, we must first control the output and obtain a monopoly high price!

Only after the technology is gradually leaked can we increase production and choose small profits but quick turnover.

Now is the time to obtain a monopoly high price, how could he choose to sell things at a lower price!

Isn't that asking for trouble!

The problem right now is that the market is not big enough!

But they have limited channels here, so there is still Mi Zhu!

Mi's business spread all over the Central Plains!

It can even be sold to the north of the Yellow River. In such a large market, it costs only [-] shi, so you don't have to worry about consuming it!

With that said, he brought everyone to the front of the papermaking workshop.

But Lu Su, Gu Yong and others shook their heads helplessly when they heard that Bai Liming was unwilling to lower the price.

But looking at the size of the workshop in front of them, they couldn't help being surprised and said:

"Military teacher, what kind of workshop is this~ˇ?"

Facing the surprised two people, Bai Liming directly opened the door and said with a smile:

"This place is a paper-making workshop!"

As he pushed the door, everyone saw that the white paper was drying on one side.

And after entering the workshop this time, an old man came forward and said:

"Little old Zhang You, I have met all your lords!"

After speaking, he cupped his hands to Bai Liming and said:

"My lord, the little people have already completed what the lord ordered before!"

"okay, got it!"

When Bai Liming heard this, Echo smiled at everyone and said:

"Let's take a look at the improved paper first, and I will go into the inner room first!"

"it is good!"

When everyone listened, they knew that it was a secret that could not be seen by others, so they simply didn't keep up.

After Bai Liming left, everyone gathered together to look at the drying paper.

"Is this still paper?"

With an exclamation, Gu Yong stepped forward and carefully picked up a large amount of paper in front of him.

In fact, paper was invented as far back as the Western Han Dynasty!

However, even after Cai Lun made Caihou paper in the Eastern Han Dynasty, paper did not actually become popular.

Because the paper at this time is extremely rough.

The surface is dark yellow and uneven.

Difficult to use for writing.

Therefore, most of the official documents at this time were either made of cloth or bamboo slips.

But as soon as everyone stepped forward, they were instantly overwhelmed by the rice paper in front of them.

Compared with Caihou paper, the paper in front of me can be described as pure and flawless, as thin as a cicada's wing.

While watching, Gu Yong whirled softly:

"Good stuff, good stuff!"

He studied under Cai Yong, and Cai Yong was a great calligrapher, when he saw this paper, it was like seeing the most beautiful thing in the world.

Touching it like this made me a little intoxicated.

However, even though he lost his composure, all the people present here were literati, so they didn't feel anything strange.

On the contrary, after seeing the paper, everyone was overjoyed, and hurried forward to examine it carefully.

On the other side, after Bai Liming followed Zhang You into the inner hall, he walked through the long corridor and finally entered the inner room.

And this inner room is far larger than the outside.

At this time, rolls of white paper were being spread on the table.

In front of the exquisite equipment, pieces of clay-carved seals are constantly printing content on white paper.

As soon as Bai Liming entered, a gray-haired old craftsman stepped forward excitedly and said:

"My lord, you are finally here!"

"The villain has been carving with several apprentices for several months!"

"Finally all the seals engraved by the adults have been engraved!"

"it is good!"

When Bai Liming saw this, he couldn't help being moved for a while and said:

"Old Wu, you guys have made great contributions to our army!"

"Everyone has worked hard these past few months!"

"In addition to the rewards mentioned earlier, I will give you one hundred thousand dollars each as a reward!"

"This villain is waiting for you, thank you for your reward!"

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard Bai Liming's words.

One hundred thousand dollars!

That was money they could never earn in their entire lives, but this time there were so many rewards alone!

Seeing this, the craftsman named Lao Wu hurriedly borrowed flowers to present Buddha, and handed over a book with a light yellow cover:

"My lord, this is the first batch of books printed by the villains. This one is the best, and it has been bound!"

"My lord, let's see if this is the case!"

Seeing this, Bai Liming hurriedly took the book for a look, only to see the words "The Analects of Confucius" neatly printed on it.

After turning the pages of the book, a strong fragrance of ink came to my face.

On the pages of the book, there are neat official script fonts.

That's right, this is the movable type printing machine he designed!

Although it is not as good as those copiers of later generations, it is an epoch-making invention for the big man!

A printing press, plus paper, makes the most of it!

Because in this era, books are a very precious resource!

On the surface, the foundation of every family inheritance may be fields and property.

But the real foundation lies in the number of books.

The more books you have, the more profound your family's knowledge is.

A world-renowned Confucian like Cai Yong has a collection of more than tens of thousands of volumes!

But even if there are tens of thousands of volumes, there is very little content that can be carried!

Because the bamboo slips are only so big, a large number of bamboo slips are needed to engrave a whole book.

If the scroll is longer, even one book will need several carts to pull it!

Therefore, in this era, the reason why the literacy rate cannot be raised and the reason why the gentry can monopolize is because reading is actually "very expensive"!

But now, with the publication of this paper book, the knowledge monopoly of the gentry and scholars will be completely broken!

It can be said that this book is the treasure of this era!

Thinking of this, Bai Liming closed the book and said with a smile to everyone:

"From now on, print books for me, as many as you want, such as Four Books and Five Classics, Poetry and Chu Ci!"

"Print as many as you have now!"

"The more you print, the bigger the reward!"

As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Youdao:

"¨`Old Zhang, I will also give you [-] yuan as a reward, but you must fully cooperate with Lao Wu in printing the book!"

"Use all the inventory to print books, and don't keep a single piece of paper!"

Faced with Bai Liming's order, everyone's eyes lit up, and they hurriedly bowed their hands and bowed down:

"I'll wait for orders!"

They still respect Bai Liming.

After all, this grown-up has no airs, and he is very generous.

As long as they work for two more years, they will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives!

Immediately, Old Wu was full of fighting spirit and shouted:

"Guys, keep working!"

"okay!"

When the young men heard this, they hurriedly started to work again.

If you have money, you will be motivated.

But when they were busy, Bai Liming walked out of the workshop with a smile on his face.

As soon as he went out, he saw Gu Yong approached excitedly and said:

"Military division!"

"Shall we sell this paper?"

"If you sell it, how much will it cost?"

During his questioning, everyone also looked at him expectantly.

Obviously, paper is more attractive to them than salt just now.

Before Bailiming set the price, the in-app purchase meeting started!

But after they finished asking, Bai Liming shook his head slightly and said with a smile:

"You don't have to think about it, our army doesn't sell this paper!"

"Not for sale?"

Hearing this, Gu Yong was stunned immediately, and hurriedly said:

"Military division, why is this?"

"Such a good thing, why not sell it?"

"Once this item is sold, I can guarantee that the supply will exceed the demand!"

"Yes! Military division!"

Everyone is also anxious:

"If this paper is sold, it will benefit the country and the people!"

"Why don't you sell it?"

"Don't worry, everyone!"

Seeing the excitement of the crowd, Bai Liming raised the book in his hand and said:

"Our army doesn't sell paper, but we sell books!"

"Sell books?"

Hearing this, everyone was taken aback for a moment, but then they saw the book in Bai Liming's hand, and everyone's eyes turned green in an instant.

As if a group of werewolves fell in love with the food, each one had green light in their eyes.
