Chapter 293: Experiments on Papermaking (1)
Back at his mansion, Zhang Ye ordered someone to dig a vacant lot in a vacant lot in the back garden, and then Zhang Ye ordered his soldiers to find some dry grass, rags, straw, scraps and other things, and just messed around all morning. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
After Zhu Rong heard about it, he took Qiao Ning and the two to the back garden to see him together.
"What are you messing with? I didn't even eat food, I heard that you also asked the birds to cut some dead grass, and now they are all marauders' captains, you have to take care of their identities! ”
"Why do some teachers ask about sin today?"
Zhang Ye squatted on the ground, first glanced up at Zhu Rong and Qiao Ning, and then continued to lower his head, picked up some dead grass on the ground and smelled it, after doing this, he picked up some other things on the ground and smelled them one after another.
Zhu Rong rolled his eyes when he saw this, and said in his heart that this emperor's heart is big enough, and he doesn't know what to continue to rectify, "Hello, it's been the imperial examination recently, but now I'm idle to get these things, but I don't take Qiao Lao and Fa Yan and others lightly, and even the few days before I shrank my head, I came to pour bitter water with me, and I was so busy that I couldn't go home." ”
Zhu Rong said that it was ridiculous, and when he said it, he actually laughed himself, Zhang Ye also laughed when he heard this, what are you busy with, this guy doesn't have the ability of Qiao Lao and Fa Yan, if the two in the back are busy, Zhang Ye believes it, but if he says that he is more busy, Zhang Ye won't believe it.
Speaking of this old guy who is now full of benevolence and morality, Kong said Chengren and Meng said that he took righteousness, Zhang Ye has really missed it recently, and he is an old man under Zhu Rong when he shrinks his head, and sometimes he will occasionally come to Zhu Rong.
Express his desire to do things, Qiao Lao and Fa Yan have done a lot of things recently, and they don't have the ability to shrink their heads, for fear that Zhang Ye will look down on Nanban's old subordinates, but he will occasionally come to Zhurong here to vent bitterness.
This old guy, the competitive heart is still so strong, as Zhang Ye's territory expands eastward is getting bigger and bigger, then there will be more and more Han generals and strategists under him, relatively speaking, the people of the Nanban family will use less, but Zhang Ye pays attention to this aspect of things, and always makes a bowl of water even.
There are so many generals now, except for Gan Ning, who are basically barbarian generals!!
It's just that in terms of governance, there is really a need for some talents, and I can't imagine that the old guy with a shrunken head can even eat this kind of dry vinegar.
"Well, what has he wanted to do lately?"
"That's nothing, you also know that when we were in Nanban before, although the territory was small, everyone was together all day long, and now everyone is divided into counties by you, all in various places, and they are not together during the New Year, it is estimated that he misses everyone a little, so he will come to me to complain."
Zhang Ye nodded, this is a phenomenon, but with the gradual expansion of the territory in the future, these generals of his may sometimes be between the entire state, if you want to meet, how easy is it to talk?
The career is getting bigger and bigger, which means that everyone is getting farther and farther away, and even some generals who guard the border may not be able to meet once a year, and even more exaggerated they can't see each other once for several years, so they can only write letters to continue to maintain contact.
"I'll figure out a way to do this, and there will be a way to do it. Speaking of what I'm doing now, if I can succeed, then I will have something to do, and then he won't really complain to you, just say that he doesn't want to do it. ”
Zhu Rong also smiled: "He dared to say that he didn't want to do it, I did him personally, but what are you doing here?" ”
Pushing all the dead grass and rags on the ground into the pool, Zhang Ye replied, "Make paper." ”
"Brother Zhang Ye actually wants to make Cai Hou paper?" Qiao Ning immediately said in surprise on the side.
"Cai Hou paper?" Zhu Rong said he was confused and didn't understand.
Qiao Ning explained: "It's a very thin and light, such a large piece of white soft decoration object, this kind of thing is very convenient for writing, much lighter than bamboo, but unfortunately it is too expensive to counterfeit, and it has not become too popular so far, and after Cai Hou died, this craft is said to have been lost." ”
"Lost?" Zhu Rong said: "Doesn't that mean that now the emperor is crossing the river by feeling the stones, and the parent-child test has been conducted?" ”
Qiao Ning nodded, looked at Zhang Ye, her eyes were full of admiration, and the little girl was still the same as before, full of trust in Zhang Ye.
Zhu Rong was a little worried, the current situation in Yinan was not very good, and she was a little worried that Zhang Ye's thing would not affect the situation in Nanban.
"Don't worry, in fact, there are not too many complicated processes in papermaking, and the materials are basically the same, if I do it properly, I guess I will be able to figure it out quickly, and I am also doing this for myself." In fact, there is a big drawback in the current imperial examination, so far we are all verbal questions, that is because it is too troublesome to hold an imperial examination, and if everyone writes bamboo slips, it is too complicated, so I want to get the paper out, when the time comes to each person to send a piece of paper, everyone can answer at the same time, so that it saves trouble and time, and the efficiency can be improved a lot. ”
"What Brother Zhang Ye said is, not to mention that if Brother Zhang Ye can study the paper, I'm afraid everyone in the world will have to thank you!!"
"I just hope that I won't be the target of public criticism when the time comes." Zhang Ye smiled self-deprecatingly.
Zhu Rong is not worried, Zhang Ye will have a consideration before doing anything, and he is quite sure of doing things, as long as he says that there is no big problem, then there will be no big problem.
In fact, Zhang Ye didn't lie, papermaking is not a difficult thing for modern people, and the toilet paper that can be studied is just more delicate, unlike now, when he has to use bamboo chips to cut or use stones, such things are unbearable.
After making the paper for writing, the first step was to make the paper used by Izuku, which was also the first thought in Zhang Ye's heart.
Ordered someone to carry over a large bucket of water, Zhang Ye directly asked people to pour it in, the pool was a little big, a large bucket was less than a third of the water, Zhang Ye ordered someone to pour two buckets, this looked like that, and then Zhang Ye ordered someone to pour a large bag of lime specially found.
After a while, the water in the entire pool began to bubble, but it was not strong, Zhang Ye ordered someone to pour a few more bags, and then it began to bubble strongly.
Many people in the garden were watching, and everyone was curious about what Zhang Ye was doing. (To be continued.) )
