Chapter 109: Making Straw Paper

The brush was made quickly, and there was not much in Jiukui Mountain, but the bamboo forest was the most. You can just stuff the wolf hair into the bamboo tube, but the wolf hair is smooth and does not contain ink, and as soon as the brush touches the paper, the ink will be scattered. Seeing Yang Zilu frowning.

"Master? Why can't this brush be used? Yu Yu said, in fact, he wanted to say that Yang Zilu would not know how to make brushes. If you haven't eaten pork, haven't you ever seen a pig run? Yu Yu has also seen others write calligraphy, I don't want Yang Zilu to look like this, it's not called a brush, it's called a pen.

Yang Zilu also understood what Yu Yu meant, his old face flushed, and he said, "Is there a goose?" Find me a long goose feather! Preferably a swan's! ”

Soon a quill appeared, and it is not known whether it was a swan feather or not. However, I have to say that even if Yang Zilu takes a complete brush, the words he writes are unsightly. But with a quill pen, it was different, and Yang Zilu immediately wrote a good fountain pen hand.

"Good word!" Even the black bear, who doesn't know how to read, can't help but applaud.

Yang Zilu shook his head and said, "It's not good, this paper is not smooth enough!" And it's not dry yet, this paper is wasted! Don't touch the rest of the filters, I'll take a look at them tomorrow. ”

Xia Hu frowned and said, "Chief, I have no objection to you doing this, but now that you are preparing for war, do you think you should put down these sundries first?" ”

Yang Zilu shook his head and said: "Don't underestimate this, fighting a war depends on resources, and it can also be said that money." What do you have on you that you don't want money? Does this leather armor cost money? Does this dagger want money? You don't have a low back pain when you stand and talk. And if this paper sells well, who will I be afraid of in the future? There is no one to spend money on other tribes to help in the war. If you don't have a weapon, you can buy it! With money, are you still afraid that you won't be able to defeat the servants? ”

Xia Hu was speechless when Yang Zilu said it, and he should be speechless with shame.

In fact, Yang Zilu is fooling Xia Hu's roar, fighting a war is burning money, but not money can solve all problems. First of all, the mercenary, this soldier is hired, then it is not reliable. There was once such a story that a certain underworld boss owed a certain boss 1 million, and if he didn't pay it back, he often went to his restaurant to drink and eat for nothing, and once he shouted for money, he would make trouble. This boss was angry, but helpless! Someone else is a triad boss! So he thought of a way to buy * murder * kill * people. found a foreigner who worked on the construction site, and declared that he would give him 100,000 yuan if he killed the leader.

The outsider immediately agreed, and went to the door of the nightclub where the underworld leader must go that night, but he found that the underworld leader was tall and big, and he didn't say anything, and he was also following a younger brother. The outsiders quit and went to the boss overnight to explain it. Where is the boss willing? immediately took out 50,000 yuan and said, "This is the deposit, you him, I will give another 20,000 yuan, and the deposit will be a total of 120,000!" ”

What do you want to do? This outsider saw that the boss's figure was comparable to that of Wu Dalang, not to mention, and he was fat, so he really couldn't run far if he was let go. This outsider thinks that killing the leader of the underworld is also killing, and killing the boss is also killing. The outsider Suo killed the boss and fled overnight for 50,000 yuan. So it turns out that having money is not everything, and it is very important to have a certain force value.

However, Xia Huyao didn't know how to use this to refute Yang Zilu, and in the end he had no choice but to flee.

Two days later, Yang Zilu came again to lift the wooden board pressed on the filter plate. Yang Zilu looked at the filter plate intently and couldn't help laughing.

"Master, what are you laughing at?" Yu Yu asked curiously, unlike two days ago, Xia Huyao and Black Bear were no longer interested in straw paper, so he was the only one to accompany Yang Zilu today.

"It worked!" Yang Zilu said with a smile.

"Where did it work?" Yu Yu pointed to the thick, uneven surface of the straw paper inside the filter plate, and asked puzzledly.

Yang Zilu said with a smile: "That's because you don't know the reason, I give too much pulp to this straw paper, and you see that the straw paper of the last filter plate is definitely not like this." ”

"Really?" Yu Yu didn't have as much confidence as Yang Zilu, so he wanted to say that it was impossible, but considering that Yang Zilu was his master, he changed a question sentence.

Yang Zilu didn't care about the imperial guard, and moved the stones and wooden boards on the third filter plate by himself, which was really similar to what Yang Zilu thought. The third filter plate is the last to pour the wood pulp, the least wood pulp is poured, although the surface of the dry straw paper is not smooth, but I don't know that the previous obvious unevenness is much better. And it is also relatively thin, although this extremely thin straw paper is also a millimeter thick, to be honest, the straw paper is no longer 'thin', but it is also the first straw paper made by Yang Zilu.

"The master is really done!" Yu Yu leaned his head out from behind Yang Zilu and said excitedly. 'Woo! Woo! I can finally abandon all evils and see that I am soft-handed! ’

"Well, when I calculate the cost, when I say that the straw paper poured into the three filter plates uses about ten catties of sedge, as well as a small amount of torn linen and rotten bark, and a lot of firewood, according to the thickness of this straw paper, such materials can make at least six pieces of straw paper in the future. And each slave only harvests fourteen or fifteen catties of sedge every day, so the price of this straw paper is not cheap! "It's okay that Yang Zilu doesn't calculate, but when he calculates, he was really shocked.

At the end of a day's work, a slave can only make about ten strainers of straw paper, not counting the hands of those who boil sedge and cut firewood. A filter plate is nothing more than a square frame four feet (eighty centimeters) long.

Yang Zilu shook his head and said, "This thing is still too expensive, although it is much cheaper than sack!" But it's not much cheaper than bamboo slips. ”

Hearing this, Yu Yu nodded and said, "A slave cuts bamboo to make bamboo slips, and if you don't go green, you can make fifty rolls of bamboo slips in a day. But it's not as light as this papyrus! ”

Yang Zilu nodded when she heard the words and said, "This is true!" I'll leave this matter of making straw paper to you, and I'll send you twenty slaves to make straw paper. Be careful with confidentiality. ”

"Ahh When the royal guard heard this, his face turned black. "The black bear is the most relaxed, I usually have to patrol and train soldiers at dusk, and go to the temple to teach," he argued. And there are others! ”
