Chapter 16 [Natural X-rays are harmful to health]
Zhao Dan sighed and said: "The envoy of the Yan Kingdom is here, the king summoned me back to the palace to receive the envoy of the Yan Kingdom, those Yan people are the most hateful, and they drove away the Wangzhujun, and now they still want to take the Wangjun back to the Yan Kingdom, and it is also a shame that the Yan King can figure it out, and the head of the Yan King must have been kicked by the horse." β
Zhao Kuo knew that Wang Zhujun was Le Yi, a famous general of the Warring States Period, and also felt that Yan Guo's move was too naΓ―ve, not to mention that Le Yi was not in good health now, even if Le Yi was alive and well, he would not go to Yan Country again, people would live in one breath, how could Le Yi swallow the evil anger of being driven out of Yan Kingdom! Besides, King Zhao will not let Le Yi go, for King Zhao and Zhao Guo, Le Yi is like a door god, with this door god, other countries have to consider the consequences if they want to find trouble with Zhao State.
Zhao Dan didn't see the Zhao Ying Bone, and he was very unwilling in his heart, and said close to Zhao Kuo's ear: "You try to let Lu Buwei sacrifice the Zhao Ying Bone, the Zhao Ying Bone is said to be the treasure of the ancient Shennong clan, and it is a pity to leave it in the hands of a businessman like Lu Buwei, but it's a pity." β
Zhao Kuo nodded and said: "Don't worry, the prince, I will definitely let Lu Buwei spit it out, he wants to gain a foothold in Zhao State, how can he not be filial to the prince!" I believe that a person as smart as LΓΌ Buwei will not be unable to understand this truth. β
After Zhao Dan left, the atmosphere of the banquet was even more open, Guo Zong picked up the bronze jue and took a sip of wine, and said: "The prince is not here, there are some things that we can let go, the second prince is his own person, I won't shy away from it, does Brother Lu really want to settle in Handan this time?" β
Lu Buwei nodded and said: "It's true, I want to settle down after wandering for so long, and Handan is a suitable place for business, but I weighed this decision for a long time, and today I got acquainted with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Prince Kuo, and I have strengthened my determination to settle in Handan." β
Guo Zongdao: "Since Brother Lu has made up his mind, some things are easy to say, we are businessmen and have no power except money, if we want to make the business bigger, we must have effective support, Brother Lu wants to gain a foothold in Handan, and it is the key to be reluctant to bleed." β
Lu Buwei said with a smile: "Brother Guo's words can be described as hitting the nail on the head, I won't tell you anything, I was going to meet Pingyuan Jun before!" I didn't expect to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first, wouldn't it be better to do business! Naturally, I have to pay the principal first, and tomorrow I will back up the generous gift and officially meet His Royal Highness the Prince. β
Zhao Kuo saw Lu Buwei on the road like this, and said: "Since you have this, I will also tell the truth, just now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince heard that you came to Handan, and mentioned one of your treasures, that is, the one that shines on the bone, I don't know if you are reluctant." β
Lu Buwei was stunned, and said in his heart that Zhao Dan was really knowledgeable, and when he opened his mouth, he rushed to the lower mouth of the Yinggu, and it took him a lot of effort to get it, so did he have to give it up like this?
Lu Buwei made a decisive choice, Zhao Yinggu is just a dead thing, and it will not produce any benefits except for increasing dust, since Zhao Dan wants it, then give it to him, and accept such a valuable gift as Zhao Yinggu, don't be happy to ask Zhao Dan to do something in the future!
Lu Buwei took out a palm-sized brocade box from his body and put it on the table, and said: "The light bone is in the brocade box, so please bother Gongzi to transfer it to His Royal Highness the Prince!" β
Zhao Kuo stretched out his hand to open the brocade box, he had never seen what the light bone was, since Zhao Dan and Lu Buwei and others valued it so much, it must be a treasure, although it can't be owned, it's always okay to get over it first! But when Zhao Kuo opened the brocade box, he was dumbfounded.
There is a thing like a finger in the brocade box, which is crystal clear at first glance, and when you look closely, it radiates a diamond-like magnificent color, which surprises Zhao Kuo not by the appearance of the Ying Bone, but by the fact that this so-called Zhao Ying Bone was originally his thing.
The so-called illuminated bone is actually a part of the time machine, the main function is to adjust the time of travel, the reason why it can irradiate the internal organs of the human body is because it is filled with radioactive substances, for this era is a pure natural X-ray, the time machine has exploded a long time ago, and I don't know where Lu Buwei got the illuminated bone, and it is also given a mythological color, saying that it is the treasure of the Shennong clan, which is really ridiculous.
Zhao Kuo hurriedly put the so-called glowing bone in the brocade box, he knew what the adverse consequences of being irradiated were, if this thing was irradiated for a long time, the body would definitely not be able to stand it, and it would definitely lose its life, since Zhao Dan liked it, then take it.

Zhao Kuo put Zhao Yinggu aside, and wanted to tell Guo Zong and Lu Buwei about his own affairs, he had thought about it just now, if he wanted to come forward to do business, Zhao Hao would definitely not be able to pass the pass, but he didn't want to give up the opportunity to make a fortune as an official businessman, and thought about it and thought that it would be more appropriate to push Guo Zong and Lu Buwei to the foreground, and let the two of them be agents and distributors of products, and his business would ensure that he would make money steadily.
"Two, I want to do some business, I wonder if you are interested in cooperating?"
As soon as Zhao Kuo's words came out, Guo Zong and Lu Buwei thought crookedly, thinking that Zhao Kuo wanted to eat dry stocks and benefits, and they also understood Zhao Kuo's thoughts, how could they not understand the convention of who eats meat and drinks soup.
"Don't get me wrong, it's not good, I still look down on the little money you gave me, the business I want to do is absolutely profitable, but it's inconvenient to run it myself, so I want to entrust you with the sales of the things I produce, and the profits will be distributed proportionally, what do you think?" Zhao Kuo could see what Guo Zong and Lu Buwei were thinking at a glance just now, and he couldn't help but feel funny in his heart.
Guo Zong and Lu Buwei asked in unison, "What kind of business is the second son going to do?" β
Zhao Kuo did not directly answer the questions of the two, but asked, "What do you rely on to transmit information on weekdays?" β
"Most of them are bamboo slips and wooden slips, and important messages are sometimes written on animal skins and brocade silks." Guo Zong replied.
Zhao Kuo said with a smile: "The wooden and bamboo slips are too bulky, and not conducive to writing, the animal skin is inconvenient to preserve, and the brocade is too valuable, if there is a thing that can be as light as the brocade, but the price is one-tenth or even one percent of the brocade, do you think it will be easy to sell?" β
Lu Buwei hurriedly said: "Is there really such a thing?" If the writing can really be as beautiful as brocade, and the price is much lower than brocade, it is definitely a hot item, and I am afraid it will be in short supply! β
Guo Zong felt that something was not quite right, he was not like Lu Buwei who didn't know Zhao Kuo, he hadn't known Zhao Kuo for a day or two, and he had never found out that Zhao Kuo had any business acumen, so where did he get the good things described in his mouth? What the hell is that?
The product that Zhao Kuo wants to make is paper, and people in later generations have no independent concept of paper at all, thinking that paper is paper, and when you want to use it, you can spend money to buy it, and it is just a commodity that can be obtained at any time, but in the Warring States Period, when the main recording tools were bamboo slips and wooden slips, paper was a big treasure, and if Zhao Kuo could make paper, he would definitely become a huge wealth in the Warring States Period with this product.
The process of making paper is very simple, but people in this era would never have thought that bamboo pulp, broken clothes, waste fishing nets and other things can be smashed to make paper that can be written, of course, Zhao Kuo did not dare to underestimate the wisdom of the ancients, so he will separate the papermaking workshops, a workshop is responsible for a process, and the transportation is also entrusted to the army of Zhao State, which has only one purpose, that is, to keep the papermaking technology as much as possible and monopolize the industry.
