Fang Jun looked at him and smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "Hehe......"

Just kidding, this slurry made from a mixture of reeds and other forages is the key to making paper, tell you? Even if there is no sense of property rights now, but this already belongs to the category of "secret recipe", which is enough to inherit the family and benefit the descendants of the family, how can it be easily revealed?

Lu Xiaoyu also knew that he was abrupt, and he was so embarrassed by Fang Jun's two "hehe" laughs that his face was hot. But looking at Fang Jun's smug appearance, he gritted his teeth angrily, thinking that it was only under my nose, and I couldn't believe that I couldn't figure out the formula for this kind of slurry. Wait until someone understands the key point, hum......

After thinking about it, he found that even if he mastered the recipe of this slurry, he couldn't kick Fang Jun away.

Now Fang Jun is a shareholder with technology, with the help of the Lu family's only remaining sales channels all over the south of the Yangtze River. But Fang Jun has an unparalleled influence in Wu County, Jiangdong, and he is not the Xiao family who can make Fang Jun have scruples, if he dares to play a trick of "going up the house and drawing a ladder", he will be slapped in the face by Fang Jun in minutes......

As for the secret of the "bearing", don't even think about it.

The essence of this thing lies in the excellent quality of iron, and the leader of Datang Iron is none other than the eldest grandson of traditional iron making and the rising star of Fang Jia. Even if Fang Jun told Lu Xiaoyu about the production method of the "bearing", Lu Xiaoyu would not have been able to get such a fine iron to make it.

Looking at the rotating gear stone mill in the water mill room, as well as the servants and handymen who came and went without touching the ground, Lu Xiaoyu couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. Fang Jun not only has a new secret recipe for papermaking, but also has a strict system to support it, which is more than twice as strong as the Lu family's previous papermaking workshops?

As long as the quality of the paper produced is not too bad, it is almost certain that the business will be profitable......

The two of them walked out of the water mill and walked along the flat road to the main house of the workshop.

The breeze is gusting, the bamboo leaves are rustling, the eyes are full of verdant, and the mountains are stacked.

A pool of water was built outside the main entrance of the workshop to make paper. At this time, there are many papermakers who put the viscous pulp into the paper trough, add water and stir, dissolve evenly, and become a thin slurry. The papermaker puts the bamboo curtain into the pulp and shakes it gently to make the pulp evenly precipitate and form a layer of film, which becomes wet paper. Then put the bamboo curtain on the paper shelf board, gently lift the bamboo curtain, and the wet paper will be left on the board.

This is repeated again and again, accumulating a thick stack of paper, and slowly squeezing out the water.

An old craftsman with white hair is holding his hands behind his back, checking the operating procedures of the papermakers one by one, and if there are any mistakes, he will stand next to him and explain in detail in a gentle tone. The papermakers who work on the other side also listen attentively, and if they make the same mistake themselves, they will immediately correct it.

Papermaking is a very skilled craft, if you can practice this craft, you will not have to worry about eating enough for the rest of your life.

When the old craftsman explained, he was very detailed, very serious, and his expression was kind, and he was never arrogant. It can be seen that the papermakers also have great respect for the old craftsman, and when he explains, everyone is careful not to make a sound and disturb the old craftsman.

Fang Jun stood there quietly, stopping to listen, without the slightest intention of interrupting......

Lu Xiaoyu was secretly impressed in his heart.

With Fang Jun's status and status, he never seemed to show a superior posture in front of others, let alone deliberately reveal the coy attitude of Corporal Lixian, hypocrisy. He seems to have a calm attitude towards anyone, and as long as you can show the right ability, he will treat it with respect.

This is a very peculiar person, and he can't see even the slightest hint of smiling in his daily life. But if anyone provokes him, that kind of violent, manic, and mallet temperament will be vented unreservedly, no matter who he is, whoever provokes him will be unlucky!

The old craftsman instructed the papermaker in detail about his mistakes, and only after the papermaker fully understood it did he find Fang Jun standing in front of him......

The old craftsman hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Erlang, when will you arrive?" Please forgive the old man for being rude, but he never saw Erlang. ”

Fang Jun nodded with a smile: "No need to be polite." How's it going? ”

The old craftsman was no longer formal, and said with an excited expression: "With Erlang's technique and the secret recipe for papermaking, everything will naturally go well." Not only that, because the raw materials are easy to obtain, the time-consuming and laborious transportation is saved, and the speed is twice as fast as when it was in the middle of the pass? Ten days later, the first batch of paper will be available for sale. ”

Fang Jun said happily: "So fast? Can there be a finished product that can be used for a certain view? It's best to use good paper, and see how much it differs from ordinary paper. ”

The old craftsman bowed his head and said: "Naturally, there is, Erlang, please come with so." ”

As he spoke, he led Fang Jun and Lu Xiaoyu through the courtyard of the workshop and walked towards the main house.

Lu Xiaoyu looked around, not with a shocked expression.

For example, the previous workshop of their Lu family must have been too complicated to make paper!

The old craftsman is a person from the Fang family, and he was directly transferred here by Fang Jun from the paper workshop in Lishan, and he didn't know who Lu Xiaoyu was, but since Fang Jun could bring it, he naturally didn't leak secrets, so he introduced: "A bamboo can be turned into paper after more than a dozen processes such as cutting bamboo, breaking green, peeling, breaking materials, soaking lime water, boiling, soaking, pulping, scooping paper, and drying." If you want to keep improving, make the quality of the paper to the next level, and even add dozens of processes......"

Lu Xiaoyu was speechless: "So many processes? Presumably now, the previous workshop of the Wu Lu family was as childish and ridiculous as a kid's house......"

Only then did the old craftsman know that Lu Xiaoyu was the Lu family, and said proudly: "If you talk about the way of things in the world, there is no one better than the Erlang of my family!" The improvement of this paper-making technique, but the experience that Erlang found out after leading us to experiment countless times, is naturally the best paper-making technique in the world! ”

Fang Jun blushed a little when he heard this......

In fact, for each process in the papermaking process, Fang Jun is just directing the craftsmen on the side, and the correct method verified through thousands of experiments, Fang Jun just opens his mouth.

But it is not an exaggeration to say that it is Fang Jun's credit, and the chemical reaction contained in it is a mystery that these craftsmen cannot understand even if they crush their brains......

For example, in the process of soaking lime water, the craftsmen only know that after this process, the paper produced is white and shiny, but they do not know why.

Bamboo paper is soaked in lime water, and the bamboo is combined with lime to form calcium carbonate attached to the bamboo fiber, and after oxidation, calcium and oxygen form crystals, which will make the paper shiny. Therefore, even if this kind of bamboo paper is oxidized for several years, it can still be rubbed without breaking, and there is no trace of pleats.

Entering the main house, the old craftsman took a piece of bamboo paper made and spread it on the table, the bamboo paper is crystal clear, thin as cicada wings, the lines of the table under the paper are clearly recognizable, and if you look at the surface if you are coated with pulp, it shows a jade-like luster.

took another scroll, unfolded it, and showed it to Fang Jun.

Lu Xiaoyu's eyes lit up, this quality of bamboo paper is indeed a rare boutique on the market!

The old craftsman said proudly: "Back then, someone copied the Preface to the Lanting Collection, and this kind of paper was used. Now the popular high-quality bamboo paper on the market, the quality is comparable to the paper we make, but the price of those high-grade bamboo paper on the market is more than 1,000 yuan per knife! ”

A hundred pieces of paper, the price of a piece of paper reaches more than ten cents, although this is the best paper, but it can also be seen that the paper is expensive at this time, and the idlers really can't afford it. If a piece of paper is sold at such a high price, what about a book that needs to be printed more?

It is no wonder that culture has become a luxury, monopolized by the family, which is simply the use of money to draw a gap between cultural knowledge and the common people!

Lu Xiaoyu's eyes were burning, he stared at Fang Jun and asked, "I don't know who the chief manager plans to hand over the sale of this kind of paper to?" "This is a huge profit, if the Lu family is responsible for sales, it is enough for the Lu family to earn a lot of money and improve their status in one fell swoop!

High-grade paper itself represents status and grade!

Moreover, once the method of making bamboo paper is successfully improved, it means that a new situation has been opened up, which is a huge influence industry, enough to shake the foundation of the Maison Gate Valve!
