Chapter 92 Latest Paper
There has been an influx of outsiders in Luoyang City recently, and they are basically stone carving experts and some apprentices.
The reason for this is that the news came out from Luoyang City that Prime Minister Zhang Lan ordered the recruitment of skilled craftsmen (note: stone carvings). With Ma Jun’s previous experience of being reused as an official, the fact that Zhang Lan valued skills has already spread. Almost all people in the industry are looking forward to the day when the prime minister will "can't think about it" to recruit a group of technicians as officials, but this time it seems as if the heavens have heard their voices, Zhang Lan has indeed once again publicized the recruitment of talents in the stone carving craft .
A month later, Ma Jun had already completed the equipment for making paper and successfully produced the first batch of paper, but the effect was not satisfactory, and the stone carving workers had recruited enough talents at this time to start work.
Then there was another problem, which was the template. Without a template, these illiterate engravers would have no way to start. Some of them who could write were also very ugly. So Zhang Lan went to Cai's mansion to visit Cai Yong again. After all, Cai Yong's handwriting is the best in Luoyang today.
When she came to Cai Mansion, Zhang Lan explained to Cai Yong what she wanted. At first, Cai Yong thought that Zhang Lan just wanted a set of characters, so she readily agreed. Cai Yong took Zhang Lan to the study room, spread out the paper and began to write, just like Cai Yong. People like this write very casually, and sometimes the more casually they write, the better they write. After writing a set of words, he nodded with satisfaction and handed over the written words to Zhang Lan.
Zhang Lan first took the paper and looked at it and praised a few words, although he didn't understand it, then raised his head and looked at Cai Yong.
Seeing that Zhang Lan looked at him again, Cai Yong made a gesture of please. At this time, Zhang Lan realized the problem. The relationship between Cai Yong and himself was different, so he hurriedly said, "The scholar misunderstood, I don't want calligraphy and painting. , but to word"
"That's right, what I wrote was words, and I didn't bring pictures."
"Well I mean, oops, let me tell you this, I made a way to do a lot of duplicating books, but needed a template to base it on"
"Copy books? Templates?" Cai Yong looked at Zhang Lan suspiciously, "Even if you can copy books in large quantities as you said, there is not enough paper for you to use, and the price of paper is so high nowadays, even if you copy books Even ordinary people can't afford it." Cai Yong's expression became a little ugly.
"Don't worry about this great scholar. After discussing with Ma Jun, I have invented a better papermaking technique. The cost is extremely low, and the first batch has already been produced. If you don't believe me, you can go and have a look."
Hearing this, Cai Yong couldn't calm down any more, stared at Zhang Lan with gleam in his eyes and asked, "Is this true?"
"Don't dare to lie to the Grand Master"
"Walk"
Cai Yong immediately pulled Zhang Lan out, Zhang Lan's strong body was straightened by Cai Yong's sudden pull of the cart, but it was just a flash, and Cai Yong almost fell to the ground, but fortunately Zhang Lan had quick eyesight and quick hands I held him up, otherwise I don't know what will happen.
Although Zhang Lan knew that being able to produce extremely cheap paper was a historic event and would be praised by countless Confucians and scholars, he still underestimated the weight of this paper in the hearts of people like Cai Yong.
Just like the words that Cai Yong wrote to Zhang Lan earlier, I don’t know what kind of heartache it is, so when Zhang Lan said that he copied a large number of books, his expression would become ugly.
"Scholar Cai, Mr. Cai, please slow down, it's not that you will be gone when it's too late, you haven't told me whether you will write to me or not?"
Cai Yong supported his waist, glared at Zhang Lan angrily and said, "Do you know how important it will be if it is true as you said? If you dare to lie to me, even if you are the prime minister, my Caifu will not give up. Welcome"
It may be that Zhang Lan's waist is stiff, and he showed his true nature in front of Cai Yong. He rolled his eyes and said to Cai Yong, "Let's go, you should be careful."
Cai Yong didn't react when he saw Zhang Lan's appearance. He had never seen such a side of Zhang Lan before, and the good impression that Zhang Lan brought to him just now disappeared in an instant.
Leaving Cai's mansion, Zhang Lan and Cai Yong got on the carriage and came to the 'experimental base'. The place where the craftsmanship was made was in a remote corner of the city. The area was not small. All the projects were separated and did not disturb each other. They are heavily guarded to prevent the outflow of technology.Moreover, Zhang Lan has always used the assembly line method of work, subdividing the entire project into subdivisions. Only Ma Jun knows all the projects, and even Zhang Lan doesn't know everything.
After getting out of the carriage and coming to the 'experimental base', the soldiers stationed saluted Zhang Lan one after another. Zhang Lan nodded casually and led Cai Yong in. After entering, they were divided into so many separated houses. There were guards, and they received the same treatment at the same time. Zhang Lan took Cai Yong to the room where the last project of papermaking was, and was greeted for the third time. First, the people who were closer to the door saw Zhang Lan arrived and hurriedly greeted him. The others responded and saluted Zhang Lan one after another.
"Everyone has worked hard, just take care of yourself, don't be too polite"
After hearing Zhang Lan's words, everyone started to get busy with their own affairs again. The person in charge of this project ran over and asked Zhang Lan what instructions he had. Zhang Lan asked him to bring the paper samples he had made. Show Cai Yong.
Cai Yong's excited expression appeared on his face again after seeing the paper. Compared with our current paper, this paper is rough, and the worst one is much better than this, but it is better than Cai Lun paper. At this point, the last project is to squeeze the water and then dry it. At this time, Cai Yong has already seen the sheets of paper spread out one by one, and there are not many of them.
Seeing Cai Yong's excited expression, Zhang Lan was so happy, now that Cai Yong is in a state, he can basically be sure that his business is over.
In fact, Zhang Lan has long wanted to make paper. After coming here, she has to scrape it with a toilet scraper every time after finishing, oh, it is commonly known as a shit stick.This is a difficult thing for modern people to accept, but he didn't understand papermaking technology, and there was no exchange option at the beginning, so he put it on hold. I've gotten used to it, so I didn't start making it until now it has become a necessity. It's hard to imagine that if Cai Yong knew that the reason he wanted to make paper in the first place was to wipe his butt, would he be desperate? To strangle him to death, fortunately Cai Yong didn't know.
