Daqin: The first emperor came to recognize his relatives, and I greeted him with a knife

Seeing Zhao Yang coming forward, Shu Suntong quickly showed off his treasure.

He pointed to the bamboo slips proudly and said, "All I have learned all my life is in these bamboo slips, you must study hard."
He was quite proud in his heart, and felt that Zhao Yang was very good if he could read all these bamboo slips.

You know, this is the painstaking effort he has accumulated over the years, and it took a lot of effort to sort them out one by one.

That's why he tried his best to bring these things back.

Zhao Yang turned his head to look at the cart full of bamboo slips, feeling a bit dumbfounded.

It's been hard work for him, he has to carry all these things after walking such a long way.

If all the bamboo slips were used in class, then there might not be enough room on the entire table.

Afangnu prepared some food and put it on the table, then went to the side to get busy with her own affairs.

Shu Suntong walked up to the cart of bamboo slips, picked up one of them and put it in front of Zhao Yang.

Zhao Yang picked it up and looked at it, the writing on it was slightly blurred.

You have to look carefully to see exactly what is written.

Probably because of the long-term storage, it became like this.

Shu Suntong picked up a volume and read it and found this problem.

In fact, when he was at home, he often asked his servants to take out all these bamboo slips to dry.

But no matter how hard you protect it, the bamboo slips will still have this kind of problem.

Zhao Yang put down the bamboo slips in his hand, just now that he invented papermaking, he decided to show it to Shusun Tong.

"Now that we have paper, we don't need bamboo slips anymore."
Zhao Yang walked up to the paper and took it down.

Although the paper still feels a bit frizzy compared to later generations, and the edges of the paper are slightly yellowed, Zhao Yang tried his best to make the best paper.

Shu Suntong looked disdainful, it turned out that this thing was used to replace the bamboo slips.

That would be superfluous!
This paper looks like it can be broken by blowing bombs, but if you use more force, a hole may be broken. It is too inconvenient, it is not as good as bamboo slips.

Shu Suntong retorted: "I'm used to using my own things, but I'm not used to them. Besides, this paper doesn't look easy to use."

Zhao Yang didn't say much, if he wanted to convince him, he must first show him how good the paper is.

He got up and went back to the room to get a pen, spread the paper on the table and began to write casually.

Shu Suntong leaned forward, at first he still had that disdainful gaze, but his expression changed after watching.

Ah Fang Nu stood aside and watched, she was also surprised.

I saw Zhao Yang writing a few large characters on the paper smoothly.

"This paper is much easier to use than the bamboo slips. For example, the words you write on it are clearly visible, unlike the bamboo slips that need to be repeatedly traced, and it is convenient and easy to carry. You might as well bring this thin few sheets with you. sheet of paper."

Zhao Yang knew that it would take some time to suddenly accept new things.

So patiently explained and analyzed it to him.

Shu Sun Tong's face was full of shock.

What Zhao Yang said was not unreasonable, it took him a lot of effort just to carry these things over.

If these papers can be carried on the body, records can be made no matter where they are.

Seeing that he was silent, Zhao Yang continued: "There is one more thing, that is, many poor people may not even be able to afford bamboo slips."

"However, paper does have its disadvantages, that is, some problems may occur after it encounters water, but as long as it is not soaked in water, it will not smudge, and the handwriting will never disappear."

Zhao Yang analyzed all the pros and cons for him in one go.

The ancients said: good scholars come to be regarded as learned and rich.

But in fact, five carts of bamboo slips are not as good as four or five books subscribed to paper.

Some senior officials of the state of Qin may not have read as much as a primary school student of a later generation.

It is the lack of paper that limits them.

Shu Suntong touched the paper with his hand in the early stage, then hesitantly picked up a pen and wrote a few large characters on it.

Soon the handwriting had dried, as if printed on it.

Shu Suntong turned his head to look at Zhao Yang and nodded in satisfaction.

It is really as easy to use as he said.

In addition, this paper is as thin as a cicada's wings and is easy to carry, let alone write tens of thousands of words, it can be carried out alone.

Bamboo slips are extremely precious.

Therefore, Shu Suntong is basically kept in his study and will not be taken out easily.

Naturally, none of the disciples under his sect had circulated these things.

Even if Shu Suntong wanted to teach them, he couldn't afford such a high price for the bamboo slips.

If he didn't really want to teach Zhao Yang this time, then he definitely wouldn't bring out his stuff that was kept in the bottom of the box.

Looking at the cart of bamboo slips he brought, Shu Suntong's excited hands trembled slightly.

He turned his head in disbelief and asked again: "Is this really something you invented?"
Zhao Yang nodded and said: "In fact, there are more than that. If the technology matures in the future, movable type printing is not impossible."
If movable type printing and papermaking among the four great inventions are really applied, then Qin will definitely develop rapidly in terms of writing.

But now Zhao Yang doesn't want to think about those things. All he has done is for the people of this small village.

Although Shu Suntong couldn't understand what he was saying, he also felt that what Zhao Yang said was very powerful.

"Good! Good!"

Shu Suntong excitedly said two good words in succession.

Just relying on papermaking skills alone, Zhao Yang has already made great contributions.

If it can be fully applied, then everyone in Qin will be able to afford paper in the future.

As the master of such a person, Shu Suntong feels very proud and proud.

In fact, he was also a little ashamed, he seemed to be inferior to this apprentice.

Zhao Yang can bring him new surprises and shocks every time.

Just the enfeoffment system he mentioned that day made Shu Suntong go back and think about it all night.

Shu Suntong settled down and decided in his heart to pass on all his knowledge to him.

But at this moment, he still didn't know Zhao Yang's true identity.

I just feel that it is a pity that such a talent has turned to Confucianism.

But everyone has their own beliefs, so Shu Suntong will not interfere with him too much.

It turned out that Li Si wanted to find him that day to explain Zhao Yang's true identity, but later changed his mind temporarily.

Right now, Shusun Tong still doesn't know Zhao Yang's true identity.
