Ding Ling felt a little frivolous when she saw Jiang Mo's outstretched hand, but knowing his notoriety, she didn't feel disgusted. She only turned her head and turned back to her position: "The market price of a thousand pieces of good rice paper costs twenty yuan, and if the worst paper is purchased in bulk, it will cost about five or six thousand sheets, about the size of 10 pieces of cloth, which should be cheaper than cloth." ”

After Jiang Mo sat down, he continued to touch his chin and muttered, "Isn't that a two-hundred-page book that costs a tael of silver?" ”

Ding Ling answered: "What's more, the manuscript is at least two or three taels of silver."

Jiang Mo muttered in his heart: Sure enough, it is the same as the productivity and industrial level in the early days of the Tang Dynasty, although some time-travelers have driven some new things and promoted the historical process, but they have not been able to make a qualitative leap in one or two hundred years.

Jiang Mo was overjoyed and said: "Is the girl willing to invest in new industries?" ”

Ding Ling looked incredulous, and asked rhetorically: "Childe doesn't want to open a paper workshop, right?" ”

"Bingo, it's so smart" Jiang Mo unfolded his fan: "I can reduce the market price of paper by another tenth, and so can books......"

"Impossible..."Ding Ling had never heard of cheaper paper in Qi State, so it was naturally hard to believe.

"Otherwise, let's make another bet?"

"This..."Ding Ling didn't have a trace of excitement after listening to Jiang Mo's words, although she saw Jiang Mo's insight, she didn't believe that it could be done at all, but she seemed to have some concerns.

Jiang Mo saw Ding Ling's emotions, and still asked with a smile: "Is the girl completely unwilling to invest?" ”

Ding Ling shook her head, covered her mouth and smiled, "Naturally, I am willing, from the words of the son and the talents that have been shown, I am also willing to believe what you say." It's just that the paper mill is monopolized by the Eternal Ji family, and the bookstore is done by various big families, and it is basically subject to the royal family......

"Hmph, yes, no wonder it hasn't developed cheaper paper, and at the same time protects the Dashi clan with absolute intellectual rights" Jiang Mo couldn't help but shake his head, and the more he muttered, the quieter he became: "Those civil officials who have come out of the scientific examination must not be so poor."

"Indeed, this is also the reason why those high-ranking nobles have not set foot in the papermaking competition, and the Xiaoshi clan does not dare..."Ding Ling also heard what Jiang Mo meant.

Jiang Mo saw that Ding Ling, the little proprietor who lived in the world, was not simple, and her knowledge was definitely not below that of ordinary women, so he shook his fan and asked with a joke: "Does that girl dare to wade into this troubled water?" ”

Ding Ling hesitated, biting her lip with her teeth, and her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, "What is my little woman Ding Ling afraid of..."

"Don't worry..."Jiang Mo interrupted Ding Ling's impulsive words, and when Ding Ling hesitated, he also had some scruples: "You and discuss with the clansmen, if the interests are involved, I am afraid that there will be a fatal disaster, but you can discuss and try to build a small workshop first, although I know the general process of papermaking, but I am afraid that it will take a lot of time to experiment when the finished product comes out, or it is not as easy as I thought." ”

Ding Ling smiled and nodded.

"By the way, spirits can only be produced for eternity?" Jiang Mo frowned and asked.

"Yes, it's not that other big families don't want to brew, but no matter how you transform the brewing technology, you can't reach the eternal wine. But drunk in the world is definitely the most mellow. Ding Ling mentioned her own wine, and she was still extremely proud.

"Because that wine is not directly brewed at all, it needs to be distilled!" Jiang Mo directly told the trade secrets that belonged to this era.

"Distillation?" Ding Ling was almost bombarded by Jiang Mo's knowledge in the past two days, "You can't make spirits, right?" ”

"It's just floating in words, I know a little about the principle, but it's just to let the alcohol evaporate and make the alcohol concentration higher, so it will be stronger." Jiang Mo can naturally rely on technology to make a profit, but since this era already exists, all families know it, and then compete for improvement, isn't it better.

It's a pity that this is far more than the noun of this era, she doesn't understand it very well, but instead asks: "Why does Childe believe in me so much, so he is not afraid that I will spread the technology or frame you?" ”

"Knowledge should be known to the world, so that it will compete and develop faster" Jiang Mo smiled and said frankly, "As for framing, I see that the girl has a good face, and she will not harm me......"

Ding Ling smiled, still leading to the thoughts before the papermaking: "Why did Gongzi come to Da Zhou to do these things?" I haven't heard that Qi Guoshu paper is cheaper, and I haven't heard of Qi domestic spirits......"

Jiang Mo was dumbfounded, he couldn't say that he had only come to this world for a month or two, and the position of the prince of Qi could only come to Da Zhou before he was hot. After thinking for a moment, he said: "The vassal states are also controlled by various Dashi clans, and cheap books and paper will not only deepen the fear of the Great Zhou, but also make the Dashi clan fearful. Unless the Great Monday rules the world, the scholars will be completely shattered. ”

Ding Ling will be suspicious, "Your heart is towards Da Zhou?" ”

Although Jiang Mo thought about those words just now, although as the prince of Qi State, he should benefit Qi State, although the officialdom of the Great Zhou Dynasty may not be very good, although the Great Zhou has a lot of means against the Qi State, but Jiang Mo has come all the way from the Qi State, he has always hoped to reduce the death of war, since he came with modern knowledge, and gradually wants to promote the development of the whole world, the only way is for the Great Zhou to gradually dominate the world with Huairou's method. It's just that is really good to let the surname Ji rule for thousands of years like the emperor of Japan?

"This is nature" Whether it is true or not, in Da Zhou, Jiang Mo must answer like this, and try to convince himself that it should be so.

"Very good," Ding Ling nodded thoughtfully.

A few people ate, drank, and chatted, and soon they were full of wine and food, and then they had nothing to do, Jiang Mo took a pen and paper and drew a lot of schematic diagrams, from the principle of distillation, to the use of existing coarse salt to make fine: "First use coarse salt to dissolve in water, then take limestone, heat it with charcoal fire or oil, let him become quicklime, then add water, let him become lime milk, and then add the saturated lime milk solution to the water where the coarse salt is dissolved, and impurities will appear, and then filter it." The remaining brine is directly dried in the air, and after a period of time, impurities will appear again, and then filtered again. Finally, if it is distilled, it will get refined brine with no bitter taste. Finally, the crystals are dried and then ground to obtain finer salt grains. ”

Ding Ling's head was about to explode, and she added a lot of words that she didn't understand, but she didn't know the novelty, so she didn't understand it and was willing to listen carefully.

Jiang Mo also drew the equipment and plant design drawings for distilling liquor, Jiang Mozai carefully explained the principle of making spirits, Ding Ling was unconscious, everything had not been implemented, and he felt that the drunk world would definitely be famous all over the world......
