The host is a slime [Quick Transmigration]

Ohm looked at the bustling scene in front of him. Most of the sturdy men with only a piece of linen around their waists were doing their work with their heads down.

Some people used a few big wooden sticks to stir the water in the huge pool. With the stirring, the things soaked in the pool were turned out. Ohm noticed that these were flat strips about as thick as the fingers of an adult man, showing Greenish-yellowish in color.

And the slaves squatting on the side of the pool specially chose the long strips of this color and put them in the dustpan, and a layer of linen was already placed in the dustpan.

When these long strips were covered with a piece of linen, these slaves quickly ran to the next node.There are already strong slaves waiting not far away.

The slaves with dustpans poured the long strips without excess water into the stone trough in front of the strong slaves, and then the strong slaves swelled their muscles, lifted a big stone and threw it on the long strips.

Ohm looked at everything in front of him, and question marks popped up in his head one after another: "This is... the important thing?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lady's mechanical voice immediately rose up: "Host! This is the production site of papyrus!"

Ohm, a Star Citizen and a slime: "...what papyrus?"

Lady: "It is in this era that clay panels were replaced and used for 3000 years! The invention of papyrus is a milestone leap in the development of Egypt! I didn't expect to see the scene with my own eyes. I am so lucky."

The lady is not talking nonsense, although this is an experience world, but if it wasn't for Ohm who got the eye of the first high priest, and later was captured by Elim, and another person came to experience it, maybe the edge of the temple would be touched It is not enough, let alone to witness the moment when history was born.

The only raw material used to produce papyrus was the stem of papyrus, a green plant that grows mainly in the swamps of the Nile Delta.It grows densely, up to more than two meters, the stem can be used as a pen, the stem pith can be used to make paper, and the root can be used as fuel.

It can be said that nothing is wasted.

Its utilization rate is so high that it is naturally loved and even worshiped by the ancient Egyptians. It is one of the three plants worshiped by the ancient Egyptians. The other two are lotus flowers that represent nobleness and can be eaten even by poor people. A date palm that fills the belly.

How to make it smooth is an urgent problem to be solved. Elim fished out the wet semi-finished product and held it in his hand to look at it over and over again. "We have smashed the papyrus as much as possible, but it is still lumpy and uneven. In this way, it is impossible to write on it." . "

Ohm blinked: "So you asked me to help make the papyrus smooth?" I didn't expect Elim to value himself so much!

Who knew that Elim gave him a cold and noble look: "You think too much, I asked you to record the changes, I will not rush to the doctor, I have a few directions for improvement, but there are not enough people , I heard from High Priest Ehom that you are good at recording and sorting out."

Originally, he had told the high priest of Ihom about the lack of manpower in this area before. At that time, the high priest of Ihom said that he had a good seedling there, but he hadn't held a ceremony to become a priest, so he didn't send it to him for the time being. Someone arranges to come over.

According to the arrangement of the High Priest of Ihom, even if Ohm becomes a trainee priest first, he must first learn the basic rules of the clergy, and after he is familiar with the rules in the temple and becomes a regular, he will be arranged to go to Elim. The significance of this matter is too great, even the slaves who work inside have been selected through layers of selection. Although the high priest of Yihom is very optimistic about Ohm's future, he dare not be casual.

Who knew that Elim would just take him away after taking a look. Not only did he take him away, but he even took him to the paper-making workshop that afternoon.

This kind of "impulsive and careless" move was probably the first time since he was sensible.

Ohm didn't feel this special treatment from Elim, or because he was used to his partner's attitude towards him in the previous few worlds, so he directly thought that Elim asked him to help solve the problem.As a result, Elim's arrangement threw cold water on his enthusiasm... Fortunately, he immediately realized that it was not yet the time for the two to be happy, and the other party would naturally not be able to treat each other with sincerity. In that case, he wouldn't have been disguised as a woman in the palace for so long. Not only was he not exposed, but he became a noble and honorable priestess.

※※※

Elim didn't know what was going on in Ohm's mind. Seeing that he didn't object, he should have acquiesced, so he took an unsuccessful papyrus and brought Ohm into the studio: "This is the record of the previous experiment. Information, you should familiarize yourself with the environment first, because this work is very important, so you have to stay in my palace until the production is successful." There is a secret road between the papyrus production workshop and his palace.

In fact, except for the High Priest Ohm and Ihom, the other workers and slaves were brought in blindfolded, and there were heavy guards outside the workshop, let alone a living person, not even a mosquito could kill them. Free to come and go.

After Elim finished speaking, he felt that there might be a bit of a blunt threat, which might frighten the young priest. He was thinking about saying something to comfort him, but he didn't expect the young priest to raise his head suddenly: "Do you mean to live together!"

Elim opened his mouth and closed it again, wanting to say that you might be thinking a little too much, but seeing those big shining eyes, he couldn't say anything negative: "You seem to be very happy ? Aren't you worried that the research here will not be successful? If that happens, you might be stuck in this position for the rest of your life."

Ohm didn't care: "Of course I'm happy, I can follow you...to do things, this is the biggest pursuit in my life!"

Elim pursed his lips, trying to suppress the upturned corners of his mouth—this little priest...is a bit hot.

And soon, Elim knew that this little priest named Ohm not only talked hot, but also acted hot.

※※※

The success of this papyrus is of great significance to both Elim and the development of the entire Egyptian civilization, and Ohm is naturally very concerned about it.

According to his thinking, his partner wanted to give the best at that time.

Ohm would love to give Elim a serious way of making paper, if he could.

He even thought about telling Elim the method of making soft rice paper, but lady reminded that the well-recognized excellent papermaking method belongs to a civilization on another continent. Although civilizations are interlinked, in this world, It's against the rules, unless he wants to end early like the last world.

As soon as Ohm thought that he would be able to meet his partner outside the experience world as long as he passed through this world again, he immediately dismissed the idea of ​​"conveying civilization", and instead gave Elim the idea of ​​making the papyrus.

After many experiments and praying to the gods, Elim found the papyrus living in the swamp of the Nile Delta under the guidance of the gods, and formed the papyrus by chopping, soaking, beating and squeezing the papyrus. the original paper.

It's just that the paper produced by this method is not only not smooth enough, but also will fall apart with a little forceful writing or tearing. After all, this kind of "paper" is only gathered together by pure external force.

But after checking the production method of papyrus restored by later generations, Ohm remained silent.

The so-called paper, since it was invented, must undergo multiple treatments such as chemical and physical methods before it can be made. However, without these processes in the production process of papyrus, it is impossible to make anything called paper. of.

Papyrus is a writing medium made by treating the plant papyrus. It is similar to the concept of bamboo slips, but the production process is more complicated than bamboo slips.

It's not so much paper as it is a mat, or a mat that is held together by the stickiness of the plants themselves.

"I also get inspiration from the clothes I wear. Isn't the linen we wear criss-crossed in the same way from one thread to one piece of cloth at the beginning?"

Having said that, Ohm pursed his lips and smiled, "Of course, Your Highness Elim, you didn't notice this, probably because the material you're wearing is so good that there is no problem of thread opening."

Elim: "..." As a royal family, do you blame me for dressing well?

Ohm ignored Elim's eye knife, and placed the papyrus stems that had been soaked to remove the moisture and sugar of the plant side by side, and then covered it with another layer, and the two layers of thin slices were perpendicular to each other, and then passed Weaving with warp and weft interspersed - the original papyrus was not finely woven by interspersing warp and weft, but directly tested stickiness and gravity extrusion, relying on juxtaposed tendons adhered by juice.

It’s no wonder that archaeologists of later generations also issued this kind of papyrus that can be preserved for thousands of years without decay, damage or fall apart. It is estimated that the power of gods was added to the production process.

But Ohm didn't intend to rely on the gods. Although he also felt some unnatural power in this world, it was much less than the previous world, and most of them were concentrated in the bodies of senior priests.

Such as the High Priest of Ihome, such as Elim.

But the demand for papyrus itself is a big market, so it is naturally impossible for them to cast spells - otherwise, would they have done other things?

So Ohm "boldly" made some improvements within the scope allowed by this world, and introduced the concept of interspersed warp and weft.

Ohm: "We can use these softened papyrus as 'threads' and then use them to 'spun'. When traction is formed inside, the produced paper will not be so easy to scatter. But I tried For a moment, it is not practical to weave in the same way as weaving, because papyrus is no softer than flax, but we can use other methods..."
