Datang infinite pretense system

After finishing speaking, he didn't intend to leave, as if he still had something to say.

Li Chengqian asked again: "Did they raise the price of paper?"

As soon as these words came out, Wei Zheng exclaimed: "His Royal Highness, you are really clever!"

But Li Chengqian said: "The eyeliner I planted around them has already told me these things, these guys are really very courageous!"

Li Shimin was upset when he heard it.

"In my Tang Dynasty, I dare to raise the price indiscriminately! According to my order, whoever dares to raise the price of paper indiscriminately, will be pulled out and chopped down!"

With Li Shimin's words, the five surnames and Qiwang would probably tremble.

"Yes!"

Then someone went down to convey his order.But Li Chengqian had a different idea.

He said: "Your Majesty, even though a few people were chopped off, it still can't cure the root cause. I think that the method of making paper is still a bit backward, and I want to make paper!"

This statement is well-founded. After all, papermaking is in the hands of aristocratic families, and the price cannot be lowered. At the same time, the output cannot keep up. If the papermaking can be improved, the future paper price will only fall.

"Gao Ming, what do you think?"

Li Shimin asked, because Li Chengqian would not say these things for no reason.

However, Li Chengqian said: "I think that my Tang Dynasty must at least master some of these people's livelihood industries, so that they will not be controlled by others everywhere, and if the cost of paper comes down, then books will fly into the homes of ordinary people! Dare I dare Judging that as long as papermaking is in our hands, Erchen feels that the cost of books will be reduced to more than half!"

This is not a joke, if this is the case, I am afraid that it is possible to drop to one percent of the original, then anyone can really afford books, and anyone can own more than a few books.

"Then how to make paper?"

Li Shimin asked.

What he meant was how would Li Chengqian make it? Does he have the technology?

"I learned the method of making paper from an ancient book. I believe that through that method, I can make paper of higher quality, and the price of paper is lower!"

"Oh? Like this..."

Li Shimin was a little skeptical about what kind of ancient texts Li Chengqian was looking at, and why there were so many novel things.

Li Chengqian would not tell him that these are all things in his mind, things that do not belong to this era.

Li Chengqian did not wait for Li Shimin to doubt, and continued:

"When the paper mill is built, it will be supported by Datang Publishing House, and the ink will also be produced at the same time. In this way, once the paper is produced, it is not afraid that it will not be sold, and it will be consumed directly!"

Once the things produced are in the warehouse, they must be sold quickly, otherwise these will be costs, and the books will become old. Things that have not been sold for more than three months will become a burden!This is his business experience, and it is also the way modern people do business.

Li Chengqian has thought of everything that can be done, and since he has done it, he must do his best.

Li Shimin nodded and said: "Success, in this way, those aristocratic families will definitely be hit, and part of the industry will definitely be eliminated."

Li Shimin was only happy when they were weak. It would be better if everything was in his own hands.

And Li Chengqian is also very happy, this paper making is [-]%, and he will not be controlled by others.

At this time, a reminder came to Li Chengqian's head: Congratulations to the host for performing the papermaking task!Extra bonus plus ten percent.

Um?Unintentionally, another reward bonus was triggered, which is interesting now.

Chapter 323 Li Shimin Has Ink (Second Change)

After a few days, in the Tai Chi Palace

Li Shimin, who had just finished his court, asked Empress Changsun:

"Guanyin maidservant, why hasn't Gao Ming come over these few days? What is this guy doing?"

Only then did Empress Changsun say: "My concubine went to the East Palace yesterday, and this kid bought a lot of bamboo, rice, wheat straw, etc. He said he was making paper."

"Huh? These things can be made into paper?"

"I don't know about it myself. I asked him yesterday, and that's what he said."

When Li Shimin heard this, his curiosity was aroused.

"I would like to see how these things can be made into paper! Let's go! The two of us will go to the East Palace to see!"

"I think it will work. I heard from him that the paper will be made today! I am also very curious!"

"Okay then, let's go!"

After saying that, Li Shimin went to the East Palace with Empress Changsun.

……

The prevalence of calligraphy, painting and Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty caused a sharp increase in the demand for paper, and the raw materials for papermaking expanded to rattan and mulberry bark.

But these things are always limited, so Li Chengqian thought of using bamboo, rice, wheat straw, etc., after all, these things are available everywhere.

The price is definitely cheaper, and sometimes people even give you money back to help you take it away.

Because useless things occupy space and are not easy to deal with, it is better to give you money and let you take it away, so that they don't have to spend another effort to deal with it.

In this way, the price of raw materials has been reduced, and with the improvement of the process, it is no wonder that the paper is not cheap!

This is what Li Chengqian wants to do. These days, he has not been idle. While studying papermaking, on the other hand, he remotely handles everything about Arabic numerals, movable type printing, books and farmland promotion in the East Palace.

For him, these things couldn't be easier, and now he is a master behind the scenes.

In the East Palace, Li Chengqian was busy with the final inspection of each piece of paper, and dried them together one by one.

In front of him, there were sheets of blank paper, the quality of which was very high.

Especially under the sun, the shining feeling makes people feel comfortable.

Suddenly, Xiao Huangmen shouted: Your Majesty and Queen are here!

Everyone stopped what they were doing.

"Meet Your Majesty, Your Highness the Queen!"

Li Chengqian made a salute.

"Gao Ming, I haven't seen you for several days. I heard from your mother that you have been making paper in the East Palace. I'm very curious. I want to see how it goes?"

After hearing this, Li Chengqian said: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother, it's a coincidence that you have come here. I have successfully tested a batch of papers. Please take a look!"
