Zhangtai Palace,

"Why did you go for so long?"

After perceiving Zhao Qingyun's breath, Ying Zichu asked curiously.

"My lord, the minions have found a rather interesting little fellow."

Zhao Qingyun said what happened in the kitchen, and told it one by one.

Yingzi Chu didn't raise his head and said: "This kind of matter can be handed over to the internal affairs officer, why do you have to deal with it personally?" ”

"King, a few days ago, Zhao Lu entrusted a minion to help him find a clever little eunuch, and the minion feels that this little master is quite good."

After hearing this, Ying Zichu asked rhetorically: "Have you checked your identity clearly?" ”

"Back to the king, find out."

Zhao Qingyun took two steps forward and said in a low voice: "This little Gaozi's original name is Luo Gao, and he is the one who entered the city with Gai Nie, a disciple of Guigu, and somehow entered the palace as a eunuch. ”

"And he also has a master, the old slave who was deposed by the prince before his eyes and ears."

After hearing this, Yingzi Chu put down the bamboo slip in his hand, pondered for three breaths, and then said: "This matter must not be publicized, and someone else will be sent to keep an eye on him." ”

"No."

Zhao Qingyun responded in a low voice, but Ying Zichu was still not at ease, and sent people from the Black Ice Platform to investigate Luo Gao's origin.

Soon after,

Luo Gao's actions, as well as the news that he brought the eunuch in charge of the clean room to the kitchen as the deputy director, as well as the situation of the deaf and blind old eunuch, were even more appreciated by Zhao Qingyun after they reached Zhao Qingyun's ears.

Zhi'en Tubao,

It is the basic quality of a slave who is qualified.

And Luo Gao, who was bent on climbing up, also completely gained a firm foothold in Xianyang Palace under a series of coincidences!

……

meanwhile

When Ying Zheng returned to the Prince's Mansion, he found that Zhao Lu had been waiting at the door for a long time.

Seeing Yingzheng returning, he walked forward quickly and said excitedly: "Childe...... No, Prince, it worked. ”

"Just keep calling Childe."

Ying Zheng asked lightly: "Long Cai and Meng Changdong, did they really make things?" ”

"Childe, it's already been made."

"Let's go, let's see."

Ying Zheng was a little excited after hearing this, and walked quickly towards the backyard, and saw from a distance that there were sheets of wet paper in the backyard.

Papermaking!

This is what Yingzheng has always wanted to do since he came to this world, because the popular recording methods in this world are still simple bamboo slips and parchment.

Bamboo slips are bulky, parchment is rare, and the latter is a one-time thing, so it's not an important thing, and basically no one uses parchment.

There is also an even rarer kind of 'paper', which is actually an extremely special kind of silk, which can be said to be an inch of gold.

Its preciousness is generally only used by vassal states when drawing maps!

Ying Zheng also tried papermaking before, but unfortunately his head was full of theory and had no practical experience.

In addition, he was weak and soft-spoken before, so he suppressed this idea.

It wasn't until he became the crown prince yesterday that he told Long Cai and Meng Changdong the theory, and the two of them were warlocks and professional counterparts.

Before he went to Zhangtai Palace today, the two of them hadn't made a finished product yet, so they didn't know that it had only been half a day, and they had succeeded.

Before Ying Zheng could carefully observe these papers, the excited voices of Long Cai and Meng Changdong sounded not far away-

"I don't know if the prince is satisfied with this paper?"

"Prince Zheng, the paper is complete, Brother Meng and I have also received a lot of benefits, the two of us are here, thank you for the opportunity given by Prince Zheng."

Saying,

The two of them made a big gift to Yingzheng at the same time.

Just yesterday, after Ying Zheng told the two of them the concept of papermaking, the two of them felt the great opportunity in the dark.

After all, this is the most practical thing that crosses the ages, and once it appears, it will definitely become popular in Kyushu, changing the tradition of things that people use bamboo slips and parchment, and even stone slabs to record.

It's a great merit for Kyushu!

Even though the gates of heaven are closed now, and there is no merit from heaven, when the first piece of paper is made, they feel that their minds have become extremely clear.

Even in terms of cultivation, the problems that had plagued them for many years were figured out by them in an instant.

But the root of this 'papermaking technique' is not the two of them after all, so the benefits are very limited, but it is also a great opportunity for them.

As for Ying Zheng?

He didn't know if it was because he wasn't strong or because of other reasons, and he didn't notice any difference from before.

At this time, he carefully looked at the slightly yellowed papers, and a smile appeared on his face.

Although it is not a star and a half worse than the paper when he was 'dreaming for a thousand years', it is also commendable for this era.

When he saw the sun-dried paper, he improvised a few words on it, and found that there was no sign of spreading, and his heart was even more happy.

"The two of them are very good, and what Prince Ben was most worried about before was the problem of ink diffusion."

Meng Changdong said truthfully: "The prince is polite, papermaking is like alchemy, although the two of us are not Dan Dao masters, but it is still possible to solve the problem of ink diffusion on paper." ”

Then he said with a look of hope: "Prince Zheng, I wonder if I can bring two sheets to Lu Xiang after the two of us dry this paper?" ”

Ying Zheng put away the dried paper, and said with a smile: "If there are no two, the paper would not be able to come out so quickly, two of you, please be, the prince is now going to enter the palace to meet his father." ”

Long Cai and Meng Changdong clasped their fists at the same time and saluted: "Thank you Prince Zheng." ”

thereupon

Yingzheng, who had just returned to the house not long ago, hurried to Zhangtai Palace again.

Paper is a big deal,

If it works well, I'm afraid that in the next few years, it will bring unimaginable benefits to Great Qin.

really

When Ying Zheng handed over the paper to Ying Zi Chu, Ying Zi Chu was overjoyed, and summoned Lu Buwei half an hour later and asked him to run the paper.

Lü Buwei naturally took the throne and took over the king's order.

He was originally a businessman, even if he had selfish intentions, he was now loyal to Daqin, and he was the best choice to let him operate the sale of paper.

Moreover, Lü Buwei has 800 eyes, and he can completely use paper to open the markets of other countries, and even obtain important information.

As for how the interests are divided?

Lü Buwei accounted for one percent, Ying Zheng accounted for two percent, and Ying Zichu accounted for seven percent.

Even if all the laborious work was done by Lu Buwei alone, the profit of one percent was enough to make him excited.

The instinct of a businessman made him smell a huge wealth business opportunity!

However, these papers are all refined by a warlock, and he must improve them to the point where they can be operated by ordinary people and can be easily mass-produced.

It may take a little time, but it can't be difficult for the guest in his house, and even more difficult for the people of the Mo family.

And Lü Buwei was reminded by his subordinate guest Li Si, and divided the paper into four categories: upper, middle, lower, and superb, to target different groups of people.

Just when the vassal states of Kyushu set their sights on the battle of Qin and Zhao, waiting for the Qin army to launch a general attack and kill Zhao Hao, the military god of Zhao in one fell swoop,

But I don't know,

Great Qin, which has always been known for its bravery, has begun to plan an alternative invasion......
