readx; On August 20, Jeon's bookstore issued a notice to start selling books made of "paper". It is said that its shape is square, its quality is flexible and thin, its color is as white as snow, and the handwriting is clear and clear, not transparent or faint, but its price is only one-third of that of the same silk scroll.

At first, only the courtiers went to buy a cart of them and transport them home, and the curious onlookers were stunned, and they were even more curious about this new thing.

A few days later, a scholar could not help but enter a bookstore with curiosity to see what this mysterious paper book really looked like, and whether it was as rumored.

After the data manager learned of the scholar's intentions, the waiter at the bookstore guided the scholar to a room filled with the smell of books.

Dozens of top-to-ceiling bookshelves stand in the room, dividing the room into a dozen copies, and thousands of paper books are neatly arranged, each with a book category marked on each floor.

The scholar carefully took out a book from it, turned the page, and the smooth touch of the paper on the tip of his fingers was like silk, a thin one, but the handwriting did not penetrate to the back, and wiped it with his fingers, and the handwriting did not blur or fade.

"This gentleman, if you have any good books, the small ones will be wrapped up for you." The waiter said from the side.

The scholar stroked the paper and replied stunned: "Okay." ”

Waiter: "...... What book is the gentleman going to buy? ”

"Oh...... This one. The scholar who finally came back to his senses took the book in his hand and said, and then selected a dozen more books before giving up.

The waiter wrapped up a dozen books selected by the scholar with a rough texture but more wear-resistant than white paper, tied them up with a straw rope, handed them to the scholar, fiddled with them for a while, and said, "Sir, okay, fifteen books, you give one or two or seven coins of silver." ”

"So cheap?!" Shizi exclaimed in surprise, he couldn't believe that so many books could be so much money. Just now he was still thinking that such a delicate book must cost a lot of money, but he didn't expect it to be so cheap.

The waiter explained good-naturedly: "The price of a paper book is only slightly more expensive than a bamboo book, but it is not allowed to be one-third of the silk silk, and a book is only a hundred and fifty dollars." ”

"Okay, good......" Shizi didn't know how to express the joy in his heart excitedly. Originally, he just came out to visit friends, and he had no intention of passing by this bookstore, but the rumors about "paper" had spread so much in the past few days that even the limelight of the competition between Zhuang Hua and General Chen Qi had been overshadowed, so he walked in out out of curiosity.

In fact, the scholars were all disdainful of this thing, thinking that King Zhangliang's move was a blasphemy against the sages, so except for the court officials, basically no one patronized the new thing of paper books.

He also broke the scholar's entourage and came in alone, and the thought that he had almost missed this thing made him feel glad in his heart. Rumors mislead people.

He walked out of the bookstore with the book in his hand, and met a friend who had gone out to look for him because he had not been there for a long time.

My friend saw him come out of the bookstore, carrying an angular baggage, and asked, "Old friend, what is this?" ”

He lifted the heavy book in his hand, "Newly bought book." ”

Half a month later, Hikosawa paper was expensive. This is a later story, what happened outside, Zhuang Hua, who stayed in the palace to recuperate, couldn't know too much.

She didn't be able to watch the martial arts exercise a few days ago, but she heard Junya come to tell her that the two armies had a draw. Zhuang Hua thought that it should be Tao Situ's meaning, hiding in front of others in order to win at a critical moment, I am afraid that Bai Tixuan chose to withdraw from the paper book at this time, and also had the meaning of blocking the limelight for this martial arts exercise.

For Zhuang Hua, who can only lie down when he sleeps and can only move when he walks, everything else is good except that he can't go home. Bai Ti has not appeared again, very good, Qi Jin didn't come to her, yes, if you want to say that there is some regret, the vegetarian food in the palace is not as delicious as the cook at home.

Yanrong would come to see her almost every day, and when she came, she brought her some snacks made by the chef in her house, and she didn't dare to blatantly bring Zhuang Hua a staple meal, which made people think that King Zhangliang had treated Zhuang Hua harshly.

It was just after noon, and Yan Rong came with a snack box. At this time, Zhuang Hua was standing by the window writing something, the paper was placed on the wide windowsill, and there was an inkstone next to it, and there was some ink in it that had not been used up.

It's not Zhuang Hua playing literature, this is the palace, naturally there will not be a high desk like her own home, Zhuang Hua, who can't sit, can only shift her position and write on the windowsill.

Zhuang Hua wrote about the advice of the paper products business. Paper can be made not only into books, but also picture albums, toilet paper, food packaging, you can dye the paper, or add spices to make watermarks...... Zhuang Hua even thought of such a thing as a silver ticket. There are too many ideas in her head, what Zhuang Hua has to do is to write these ideas out, and then show them to Bai Ti after sorting them out, whether they can be used is not in her scope of consideration, after all, she still has more skills on paper, and she has more concrete implementation, let the professional come, she is quite self-aware.

Yan Rong entered Zhuang Hua's yard with a familiar way, pushed the door in, saw Zhuang Hua standing in front of the window, walked over and said dissatisfiedly: "Sir, did you disobey the doctor's orders and go to the ground." ”

Zhuang Hua glanced back at Yan Rong, turned around and continued to write something on the paper: "I just got off the ground and stood for a while, it's okay." "And she's been lying on her stomach all the time, it's very aggrieved.

Yan Rong opened the snack box and held it to Zhuang Hua's side, "Mr. always makes sense." Today's newly made dim sum in the kitchen is the style and taste of Yasukuni's dim sum. ”

"Hmm." Zhuang Hua put down the pen, took a flower-shaped dim sum in his hand, and took a bite, "......"

Yanrong looked at Zhuang Hua's strange appearance, thinking that things were not with Zhuang Hua's appetite, and said, "It's not delicious, sir, don't eat it." She had eaten it before, and she always felt that the taste was a little weird, but in fact, the taste was quite good, and she was a little hesitant before taking it and didn't know if Zhuang Hua would like it, so she didn't think Zhuang Hua's reaction was really wrong.

Zhuang Hua shook his head, "This is good, let's do it often in the future." ”

"Sir, like?" Yan Rong was surprised, she thought that Zhuang Hua's reaction was not like.

Zhuang Hua said: "Well, just now I just remembered some things I had eaten before, which tasted a bit like this." "It's the taste of tea, and Zhuang Hua was excited when he tasted it. Thinking about the south, it is normal to use some tea, but I didn't expect it to be not a drink but a snack. If there is tea in this world, then it must not only be Yasukuni, but also other places where the climate is suitable.

In the original world, salt, tea, and iron have always been important economic and tax sources in feudal society, and there has been no "tea" here, maybe she can get it to Zhaoguo.

Yan Rong's eyes lit up when he heard Zhuang Hua talk about the past, "Yan Rong has never heard Mr. mention the past. ”

Before...... Zhuang Hua was stunned, she really never said it, probably because no one had ever asked, "No one asked, do you still have to chase after your husband to tell someone." ”

Although Zhuang Hua still has a serious face, Yan Rong can already tell that Zhuang Hua is joking, so he said with a smile: "It's better for Mr. to tell Yan Rong." ”

A black corner retracted from the door.

Zhuang Hua thought about it, and suddenly felt that there was nothing to say, throwing away those things that could not appear in this world, such as the Internet, IT, programming, bars, and transportation, all she could say was her few travel experiences.

Twice, once to the west, to the Sino-Indian border, for half a year, and once to the south, she came at the first stop.

Can she say anything, those place names, landscapes, and characteristic folk customs, it seems that she can't say anything.

"My past, there's nothing to say." Zhuang Hua stretched out his hand and rubbed the top of Yanrong's hair, "Help me clean up the windowsill." Then he walked slowly to the inner hall to get ready for a rest.

After all, she'd been standing on the windowsill for an hour.

Outside the door, Bai Ti stopped for a moment, then turned around and left.

Once the paper book spreads among the scholars, it is like a prairie fire, and a handful of burned bamboo slips and silk silk can't raise their heads, which really responds to Zhuang Hua's original conjecture, and an idiom was born, "Yan Ze paper is expensive".

In less than half a month, the local production of paper in Hikozawa ran out, and paper was successively transferred from the bookstores in the surrounding city to Hikozawa to make up for the vacancy.

But that's it, it's also in short supply.

Zhuang Hua was very surprised when he learned the news, how many people are there in Yan Ze? Can you consume so many books and papers?

Junya explained to Zhuang Hua: "After the spread of Yanze, more and more people came to Yanze, some of them bought it themselves, and more of them bought it to give it to relatives and friends, and the more people who knew about 'paper', the more people came to Yanze to buy books...... Like rolling hydrangea, this morning is the court's discussion, and the prince has plans to expand the city. ”

Zhuang Hua was even more surprised, "The message is delivered so fast? ”

Jun Ya smiled: "Mo Xiao looks down on the transmission of news between scholars. Believe it or not, if you do something that makes a splash today, within a month, you will be famous in six countries. ”

Zhuang Hua: "...... Isn't Hikosawa not taken seriously? ”

Jun Ya glanced at Zhuang Hua meaningfully, "It is not only Yan Ze's that has changed, but the pattern of the Six Kingdoms. ”

Zhuang Hua nodded, she also vaguely guessed this, but she didn't expect it to be so soon. However, Yan Ze is good for Zhaoguo, Zhaoguo is good, so she can live in a stable place, whether it is fast or slow, it doesn't matter.

Zhuang Hua slowly walked to the bookcase and took out a thick stack of paper from the cabinet next to him, which was densely filled with words. She turned around and walked back to Jun Ya and handed the stack of papers to Jun Ya, "Qing'an, I've sorted out some things these days. I'm not a court official, and my physical condition is not convenient to go to see the prince, I just finished it yesterday, and you came here today, you can see if it's useful, and if it's useless, it's burned. ”

Junya took it and solemnly said to Zhuang Hua: "I will definitely take a closer look, and I will not make the pearl dusty." ”

If someone else said this, Jun Ya would mean that this person was asking for an official, and Zhuang Hua, with "his" talent, as long as he said a word to the prince, what kind of official title was not waiting for "him" to pick, and he still used such a roundabout way to tell him?

Jun Ya looked at the things in her hand, and did not plan to take them home to see for herself, but wanted to present them directly to Bai Ti. The things that Zhuang Hua took out will not be ordinary.
