PS: There is another chapter later

The time of the big ceremony in Lucheng was set at the end of May, and the location was set at the "Milli Society", and the students trained by Kong Qiu and Shao Zhengmao, two private school ancestors for more than ten years, gathered like birds, and the war clouds were dense for a while.

And the initiator, Zhao Wuxian, threw a big stone into the small pond, splashing countless splashes and ripples, but ran away and continued to be busy with his own business. For Lu Hou and Sanhuan's invitation, he thanked him on the grounds that he wanted to guard against a raid by bandits, but he only made an unbelievable request - to take a large number of records and writing materials for this public "ritual discussion".

In fact, the real idea of Wuxian is that the so-called etiquette is not about who is knowledgeable and who is right and who is wrong, but a battle for PI shares. The kind of stinky and long scene that seems to quote scriptures, but is actually empty vernacular spitting, he doesn't want to watch it. Although this era is full of martial spirit, if the quarrel collapses, the scholar will still draw his sword and kill in a fight......

But if you want to see the horns resist the technical attack, it is better to go to the thriving Taoqiu place in Zigong!

However, among the subordinates of Sanyi, there are many people who want to go and see the excitement, Confucian disciple Ran Qiu is loyal to his duties and has been officially appointed as the brigade commander, he also knows how to repay the kindness, and earnestly performs his duties, with a brigade of spearmen training, taking into account the defense of Yuncheng. When the news came, although Ran Qiu wanted to go, he didn't say a word in front of Wuxian.

However, Kan Zhi and Gongxi Chi were young, and they couldn't bear the loneliness, so they simply gave them a task, Kan Zhi wanted to cooperate with Feng Rin. Continue to befriend Dr. Lu Chengshi, and at the same time see the performances of various forces in this ceremony. As for Gongxi Chi, he had to sit in on the Milli Society. The content and process of this "Great Gift Discussion" are described one by one, and Zhao Wuxian also has a hard request.

"Remember, every word has to be written on paper!"

……

It's been more than half a year since the first time the hemp paper was made, and since then, the craftsmen have been tightly controlled, and the outside of the workshop has been surrounded by a high wall, so that people can't get a glimpse of the secrets inside.

Under the treatment of gourmet clothes. The craftsmen who have been "eating" the government for a long time have nothing to complain about being temporarily cut off from contact with the outside world and their families. As a result, the papermaking skills of Liaoqiu are constantly refined and simplified, and now it can make more than 1,000 pieces of hemp paper each time in a half-month cycle. Naturally, it is the grass ash pulping formula that was accidentally discovered by the small male transport class.

But the lime water pulping recipe, which was considered a "failure", was not abandoned, and Zhao Wuxian asked the craftsmen to continue making it, and then asked people to send this less resilient "inferior hemp paper" to his own temple, which was useful for himself. At least go to the toilet later. You don't have to waste any more cloth...... As for toilet chips. I'm sorry he can't get used to it.

In the past six months, the Sanyi government office has taken the parallel mode of hemp paper and bamboo slips, in addition to the limited materials for making hemp paper, there is still a long way to go to completely replace the simple silk in its heyday. In history, this process has gone through a full five hundred years, Zhao Wuxian feels. With their own intervention, maybe it will be shortened to a hundred years?

Similarly. If you want to continue to grow, you must follow the words engraved on the soup plate: "Gou is new, new every day, and new every day", and it must bring forth the new.

Zhao Wuxian heard that his sister Ji Huan, who was far away in Xinjiang, seemed to have some interest in porcelain-making, and took over the porcelain workshop in Chengxiang, not to mention, and made a lot of achievements, and even beat Zhendi porcelain when selling in Taoqiu, which really impressed him, and the porcelain craftsmen were not only hit hard, but also had a little bit of a competitive mind.

It is more difficult for the paper to come out, and the scholars and doctors are not as highly regarded as they imagined for the initial "public paper", one is the same as Gong Xichi, they have been accustomed to using bamboo slips, and the other is that the writing performance of "public paper" is not very good. So now embarrassing things have happened, on the contrary, the inferior hemp paper with poor quality and low toughness is more popular, but it is not used for writing, and the purpose of the doctors to buy this thing is naturally self-evident.

During that time, Gong Yike was a little disappointed by this, while Ji Qiao, Gong Xichi, etc. increasingly believed that bamboo slips were irreplaceable.

However, Zhao Wuxian said something awkward to them, and they were stunned for a moment.

"The momentum of development of all things is forward, but the creation of new things is not a straight line, on the contrary, its growth and growth must go through difficulties and twists and turns, and the new things must overcome the old things!"

After summing up the lesson, they realized that hemp paper could not be produced in large quantities because of its limitations, and it was impossible to sell it at a high price in Lucheng City, so Zhao Wuxian asked the paper workshop to produce new and better paper as soon as possible.

After several months of research and development, just a few days ago, the public lost Ke Zizi reported that the new paper has been successfully trial-produced, and it is a paper made of a wild mulberry woody tree "楥".

In ancient times, the bark of the tree was used to weave clothing, which is similar to hemp, but the cost is lower, because the tree does not need to be cultivated manually, it can be seen everywhere in the mountains, and anyone can cut it down. Its bast is a good papermaking material and contains a higher fiber texture.

When I went to inspect without a shirt, I found that I had to degum it in water to make paper with bark, and then use the cooking method of plant ash that I accidentally found in the public transport class, and the following procedure was the same as hemp paper, except that the green bark of the tree had to be peeled off continuously. In total, there is a production cycle of more than 20 days, the cost is lower than hemp paper, and the leather paper made is much better than hemp paper.

The yellowed parchment paper will not break if gently torn from the four directions, the toughness is greatly improved, the ink drips on the paper surface without a large area of impregnation, and the surface of the paper can be the most basic smooth, without the excessive coarse fiber residue of hemp paper. And I have tried it many times, and I am completely competent in writing, and even Gongxi Chi, who has a preference for bamboo slips, can't find any fault.

The bamboo slips are too narrow, and the writing on them is limited by the material, but on the parchment paper, it is more free and bright, and the characters left on it by Gongxi Chi have a faint taste of calligraphy. He himself looked at the joy, and after trying a few times, he began to run to the paper mill twice in three days, and repeatedly begged the public to ask for parchment paper to use.

But the dull and yellowish skin still made Zhao Wuxian very displeased. How could he, who had used the perfect white paper in his previous life, see this papyrid-like color? So instead of praising the craftsmen like the last time he made paper, he put down a stack of new paper and said lightly:

"It's not bad, but it's too cumbersome. It takes 20 days to make 1,000 sheets of paper, which is inefficient and has a large raw material constraint. The trial production of bark paper has broadened the source of materials for papermaking, but if I ask you to try the bark, it does not mean that only the bark can make high-tenacity paper, you can also try other materials, such as bamboo, sandalwood, wheat stalks, rice stalks, etc......"

In addition, the product is made out. But transmission is a big problem, and nine out of ten of the 60,000 people in Guangsanyi will not need the plum paper for the time being. Self-production and self-sale are not profitable.

As for external sales, the power of habit is strong, and the speed of information dissemination in this era cannot be enforced by the administrative force. Another ten years. Lu people don't necessarily buy paper accounts. Therefore, Zhao Wuxian must find an opportunity to publicize more, first let the upper nobles of the Lu State know this new writing material, and then slowly promote it.

Therefore, taking advantage of this ceremony, he planned to provide more than 2,000 pieces of vellum paper to the Zongbo Office for free, hoping to take this opportunity to open up the situation.

This is the "strange request" made by Zhao Wuxian to Sanhuan, so the parchment paper has become "the only designated writing material for the description of the great rites of Lucheng......

……

End of May. The so-called "Great Rites Meeting" was officially held in Lucheng Hao Society.

Although it concerns itself, this unprecedented ceremony. The little Zongbo Kongqiu had to go through the whole process, such as setting up the venue, such as the preparation of checking the records......

After going around the company, he said to the disciples who followed him: "When the first monarch was sealed in the Lu country, King Cheng and the Duke of Zhou gave him the six clans of the Yin people, so the people of the Lu country are the same as the teachers, and most of them are the remnants of the Yin Shang. In order to worship the first king of Yin Shang, the various clans of the Yin people worked together to build the Hao Society, which has since become a place for the people of the country to gather and discuss and discuss the blood alliance for hundreds of years. A few years ago, the Chinese people were forced to form an alliance here by Yang Hu, and half a year ago, his henchman Sun Zhi was killed here, and now he is about to witness this ritual dispute......"

Zilu was extremely confident in Kong Qiu, so he patted his chest and said: "Master is a person who is known to Lu, who can speak of summer rites, but he is not enough to be a sign of courtesy, and he can be a good courtesy, and Song is not enough to be a sign. As for the gift of Duke Zhou, the master has a deep understanding of its essence, and he will definitely be able to make that Shao Zhengmao speechless, so that the Ji family can correct his past mistakes! ”

Kong Qiu sighed: "If the right thing will be implemented, then it will be fine......

Yu Yu Wenzai, I Cong Zhou, this ceremony, to fight not only for the name of justice, but also to revive the foundation of the Zhou ceremony under the Lu country! ”

After a while, the disciples gradually gathered, Yan Hui, Min Yan, Ran Yong, Ran Geng and other advanced students came one after another, and even Fan Chi, who had returned home, rushed to hear the news. They gathered around Confucius, as many as more than a dozen people, and those who were enrolled in the disciples followed far away, as many as more than a hundred people.

Confucius seemed to be extremely calm, but he was still a little nervous in his heart, after all, it was about righteousness, the truth he had pursued all his life, and his hard-won career. So he seemed to inadvertently walk to the busy disciple Gong Xichi, pointed to the thing in his hand and said, "Zihua, this is the parchment paper?" ”

"Exactly, Master, do you want to try it?"

It turned out that Gongxi Chizheng was carrying a few officials sent to him by Zhao Wuxian, holding thick yellow parchment paper and fine pine smoke ink on the desk of the pen clerk.

Kong Qiu was grateful to Zhao Wuxian for proposing a big gift, because at that time, he was a little weak under the pressure of the Ji family and his uncle and grandson, and the Meng family's support was not strong enough. So in the eyes of Confucius, it was Wuxian who helped them, and when it came to etiquette, even though Shao Zhengmao claimed to be erudite, how could he be the opponent of Confucianism? What's more, in this way, the Confucian thought can also be widely publicized and let the people of the country know.

But for the "paper" that Zhao Wuxian repeatedly asked to use, Kong Qiu, who was not interested in new things, was suspicious. They will be recorded by historians and pen officials, and then hidden in the treasury and passed on to future generations, but can paper take on such an important role?

At this time, he took a new stack of paper from Gong Xichi, and his heart was a little puzzled. (To be continued......)
