Chapter 97: Paper (1 update)

"Master Hou, the matter is big, so let's think less about it!" After the shock, Lu Su did not draw a conclusion.

"Don't be in a hurry, Zijing can stay here first, when will you figure it out, when will you ......" Before Sun Ce's words were finished, a subordinate broke in, "Young master!" Master! ”

"What's the matter? How did you panic? Sun Ce frowned, could it be that something had happened? Otherwise, the subordinates would know the rules of the Sun family and would not disturb Sun Ce's guests casually.

"It's Master Song, Master Song is here!" The subordinate panted and said, "The young master said that Master Song is here, and he must notify the young master as soon as possible, so ......"

"Master Song? You mean Song Wan? Sun Ce was slightly stunned, could it be made of paper?

"That's right, it's Master Song from the paper mill!" The servant nodded.

"I'm sorry, Zijing, I'm sorry!" After speaking, Sun Ce ignored Lu Su and left the meeting room directly.

After coming to the side hall, I saw Song Wan standing there, still holding white things in his hands, which was the paper that later generations saw!

"I've seen the lord!" Song Wan's mood was also very excited, these days, he has been experimenting according to the method given to him by Sun Ce, and finally he experimented with the paper that Sun Ce said! So he couldn't wait to bring the finished paper to Sun Ce!

"No courtesy, no courtesy!" Sun Ce waved his hand, and then his eyes fell on the pieces of paper, "This is the paper you made?" ”

"That's right!" Song Wan nodded, "Please also ask the lord to take a look!" ”

Sun Ce didn't say anything, just picked up the pen and wrote and drew on it at will.

To Sun Ce's surprise, the kind of paper made by Song Wan was comparable to rice paper, and it was really the best paper for writing with a brush! There is no printing and dyeing state like Cai Hou paper before!

"Good! That's great! Sun Ce was overjoyed, "Reward!" Big Prize! All paper mill workers are rewarded! ”

"Thank you, my lord!" Song Wan was also overjoyed.

"How much can this paper be produced? Also, what about the cost? Sun Ce asked.

"Now the technology is not proficient, it can be a little slower, if it is proficient, according to our current scale, a thousand pieces of paper a day is not a problem! As for the cost, five sheets of paper can probably cost you a penny now! Song Wan thought for a moment.

"Well, put it into production as soon as possible, and expand the scale, the output of tens of thousands or even 100,000 sheets of paper a day is the best! And, in the meantime, you're going to get to work on the other kinds of paper I mentioned earlier! Also, try to keep costs as low as possible! Sun Ce said.

"Yes!" Song Wan nodded, and then retreated.

Sun Ce took these pieces of paper, pen and ink, and came to the living room. I saw that Lu Su was still waiting there, and he looked at the door with a puzzled expression on his face, as if he was wondering what Sun Ce was doing when he went out.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Sun Ce returned to the living room, "Zijing, come and see this good thing!" ”

"Good stuff?" Lu Su was puzzled, but he still stepped forward, he wanted to see what could make Sun Ce a good thing.

"It's ...... Paper? Lu Su was slightly stunned, could it be that the good thing Sun Ce said was paper?

"That's right! Zi respects you and writes and sees, this paper is very different from Cai Hou paper! Sun Ce said.

The letter was suspicious, Lu Su picked up the pen, dipped in some ink and wrote and drew on the paper, originally, Lu Su thought that this paper was just the same as Cai Hou paper, it would be very seriously printed and dyed, but to his surprise, the writing felt very good, and the phenomenon of printing and dyeing did not appear at all!

"This ...... It's really paper?!! Lu Su couldn't believe it.

"Naturally!" Sun Ce nodded, "It's because this paper was made just now that Ce is so excited!" ”

"This ...... How much is this paper produced? And how much does it cost? Lu Su asked excitedly, if the output is considerable and the cost is not high, this paper will definitely set off a frenzy in Dahan!

"In terms of cost, a piece of paper is about a dollar, as for the output, it can be slightly lower now, five hundred sheets a day, and when the workers are skilled after a while, the output should be able to increase some!" Sun Ce thought for a while and said.

"Then I wonder how much Brother Bo Fu wants to sell this paper for?" Lu Su asked tentatively.

"Sell?" Sun Ce was slightly stunned, "This is a matter for the benefit of scholars all over the world, and Ce didn't plan to sell it before!" ”

"This ...... How does this work? Lu Su was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect Sun Ce to have such a noble discipline.

"So judging from Zijing, how much should this paper be sold for?" Sun Ce snickered in his heart, this is what he wants, just kidding, he makes paper for sale, how can he not sell it?

"In Su's humble opinion, even if such a paper is sold for fifty yuan a piece, it is not too expensive!" Lu Su thought for a while.

"No, it's too expensive!" Sun Ce shook his head, although he knew that he could sell it even for fifty or even one hundred yuan, but he didn't want to sell it so expensive, "In this way, the price I will sell is set at fifteen yuan a piece of paper, which is the same as the price of cloth!" ”

"Lord Hou is benevolent and righteous, and the scholars in the world have thanked Master Hou!" Lu Su bowed to Sun Ce, and then rolled his eyes, if he could buy the agency of this paper, then his Lu family would make a lot of money!

"Master Hou, I asked for this wine from the Lu family, and this paper, can Master Hou also sell it to my Lu family?" Lu Su made up his mind, originally he had the intention to take the agency of the elixir and jade liquid, but now that he saw this paper, he wanted to tie the Lu family and the Sun family together!

"If Zi Jingcheng wants to buy it, it's okay, but I definitely won't sell you all this paper, five hundred pieces a day, I can only give you two hundred, and I will sell the rest to the local area, even Luoyang!" Sun Ce thought for a while.

"Two hundred, that's six thousand pieces a month......" Lu Su thought about it, and then nodded, "Then at the beginning of next month, Su came to get the first batch of paper and wine, and Su didn't bring money this time!" ”

"No problem!" Sun Ce nodded, and he didn't think about selling paper immediately, after all, he still had to dedicate it to the emperor, and even more so to his father-in-law, Cai Yong!

"Now that the talks have been negotiated, then Su won't stay long, let's go home to raise money, food and grass first!" After speaking, Lu Su said goodbye, didn't even eat dinner, and rushed back home.

Sun Ce went to the paper shop and took twenty pieces of paper, handed them to a scribe, and ordered ten to be dedicated to the emperor and ten to Cai Yong, of course, he also wrote a poem for Cai Yan and sent it out along with the paper.

After receiving the task, the scribe hurried to Luoyang and immediately rushed to Luoyang, he didn't want to delay Sun Ce's affairs.
