For Donner's foresight, Jason and the two admired it in their hearts after hearing it.

Donner put down the sample white paper in his hand and asked Brad, "How many types of paper have been made now?" ”

With a large amount of paper, the administrative documents on Cancer Island can completely abandon the expensive animal skin paper and use lighter paper.

In addition, at the same time, you can print all the textbooks such as mathematics, Chinese, physics, and chemistry adapted from your memory, so that every student can have a book.

That's right!

Donner said secretly, almost forgetting about this artifact.

On the Holy Light Continent, all the books are transcribed manually. For example, the books in the study rooms of the nobles, the monasteries of the Holy See, and the library of the kingdom are almost all original.

Outside, such as those sold in academies, merchants, and private hands, books are basically copied manually.

For example, the Bible, which is most widely circulated on the mainland, was copied by believers who had taken refuge in monasteries and spent countless generations of believers spending countless years.

If the students on Cancer wanted to have their own textbooks, they would have to get the printing press out, otherwise they would have to waste a lot of time and labor by copying them manually.

It may be difficult to overcome some difficulties in making movable type printing, but at present, if it is only enough to print a few textbooks written by Donner, it can be done with woodblock printing, and there are no technical barriers.

As long as you choose the wood board and configure the ink, you can quickly print what you want on paper.

Brad didn't know what Donner was thinking, and when he heard the question from the regimental commander, he immediately took the three to the warehouse.

The paper output rate of a pool of pulp is not bad, and the warehouse of the paper mill has several piles of various types of paper.

These sheets are very large and need to be cut to the right size according to the way they are used.

Donner nodded in satisfaction: "Tomorrow I will have someone carry some of each of these papers to me." ”

The first is that he needs to use it for office, and the second is that he can finally have paper to wipe his ass.

Brad said hello respectfully, and Donner continued: "Don't stop making paper, you can speed up a little bit if appropriate, and the use of paper will be more and more in the future, and in addition to the island can be used, we can also take it outside to trade." ”

Now with more than a dozen dip pools in rotation, the primary color pulp is seamlessly connected to the whitening, which reduces the time for whitening by two months.

Therefore, as long as the raw materials are continuous, the paper can be manufactured continuously.

Brad bowed and said, "Yes, Captain." ”

Donner glanced at him and said, "Also, in the future, it is not allowed to bend down and salute at every turn, stand up straight and speak, within the liberation regiment, there is no need for this kind of self-inferiority." ”

"You have to know that you are a craftsman, a good craftsman, equal to everyone, including me, and not to mention that in my eyes the laborer is the most honorable, so you don't need to bend down at every turn to salute. ”

A cold sweat broke out on Brad's forehead, and he muttered, "This...... This is my respect and admiration for the head of the regiment. ”

"Actually, I would prefer that all people have a polite manner. Donner smiled at Yuri Jason as he spoke, "I heard that ordinary people in the kingdom have to kneel down and kiss the tips of their boots when they see nobles or priests to show respect, isn't this a waste of people?"

Jason said in a deep voice, "Yes, Captain, the nobles are extremely stubborn about etiquette, and they think it is a reflection of their noble status. Commoners, especially serfs or slaves, were required to cover their eyes, which meant that they could not look at any part of the nobles with their hands, and they would be punished with flogging if they violated it. ”

"So, I think this kind of etiquette should be abandoned and reformed, and only need to leave polite etiquette actions in daily life, such as nodding and smiling, shaking hands, gently hugging, and so on. ”

"That is, my old Yuri is very disgusted with the cumbersome etiquette of the nobles. Old Yuri also chimed in, "In the past, I didn't like to see the invitation of nobles on the mainland. ”

"Okay!" Donner said lightly, "These things will be talked about later, the most important thing is the concept of the people, and it must be slowly reversed, especially within the liberation regiment, there are still these problems, this must be changed, people only have different positions, and there is no personality of high or low." ”

"It's getting late, let's go back!"

"Commander. What about the lime kiln?

Donner waved his hand and said, "I won't go today, I'll go later!"

Lime has already begun to be used, and it is of little significance to see the lime kiln for the time being.

In fact, it was originally prepared to go to the cement kiln, but the firing of cement requires a large amount of iron powder slag, which is involved in grinding.

Iron ore is not smelted on Cancer Island, and cement cannot be fired for the time being.

However, the construction of Cancer Island is inseparable from cement, and Downer has no choice but to retreat to burnt lime.

Lime is made of limestone firing, which belongs to quicklime after firing, which can be used as desiccant, preservative, etc., and becomes hydrated lime after adding water.

Quicklime produces a lot of heat when it comes to water, and can even boil eggs, which Donner did as a child.

After several simple processes such as precipitation, hydrated lime is mixed with sand and yellow mud, and can also be used as a building material.

Although some effects such as adhesion are not as good as cement, they are still sufficient for building houses.

Moreover, lime also has a special use that cement does not have, hydrated lime has its white color characteristics, in the aspect of painting the wall, the aesthetics are far better than cement, and it can also prevent moisture and absorb water.

"Well, that's good. Jason answered, and the three of them left the paper workshop and returned to their respective quarters.

Not long after Donner got home, Brad arranged for workers to pull a cart of paper from a horn horse, each with a stack high.

I was supposed to ask him to move some over tomorrow, but I didn't expect it to be shipped immediately.

Donner shook his head amusedly, and he could see that Brad was not actively carrying out orders, but could not get rid of the idea of inferiority, and was eager to please himself.

It's not just Brad, almost everyone on Cancer Island is like this right now!

It is estimated that Jasmine, Yuri, and Anderson do not have this idea about themselves, including Hans Jason and others.

Donner sighed, the mind still needs to be transformed, the revolution is still sprouting, and the comrades still need to work hard!

Donner greeted the two workers warmly, carried the paper into his house, and finally thanked them, and asked them to bring their thanks to Brad by the way.

The two workers walked away gratefully, and Donner, with a straight knife, began to cut the paper, making some out just in time for the students to use first.

It seems that he hasn't been to give them a lesson for a long time, and these days, Jason and they haven't gone either, and have completely handed it over to the other two literate assistants.

How can this work?
