Daqin: Many sons and many blessings, create an immortal family

Chapter 4 Enhance family influence, papermaking!

The position of Chang Shilang was very vacant.

Ye Xuan hardly had to do anything.

It can be said that touching fish for a while is cool, and touching fish all the time is always cool.

After work, Ye Xuan returned to Ye Mansion and began his baby-making career again.

He wants to get a system reward by adding heirs.

Ye Xuan said that purely for the reward, he could settle down in Daqin after receiving the reward.

There is absolutely nothing selfish.

It’s not because of the joy.

“Beauty, I’m coming.”

Ye Xuan made a declaration like a womanizer and pushed open the door of the beauty’s room.

Red candles flicker.

Dim candlelight illuminates the room.

The beauty sat on the bed, her hands stirring a kerchief, and her face was shy.

She shouted delicately, “Husband-kun.”

The red candle flame flickered and extinguished.

Spring supper is short.

Another night is over.

The red candle burned out.

Ye Xuan was like this almost night and night.

“If it goes on like this, the cows can’t stand it.”

Ye Xuan covered his waist and felt that he had to make up for it.

Bubble goji berries in a cup.

Nourishing yin and tonifying yang soup can not be less.

After Ye Xuan’s hard work, his hard work finally came to fruition.

Ye Xuan looked at the four concubines in front of him with satisfaction.

These people are already pregnant.

“I worked overtime night and night, and my hard work finally paid off.”

“Now you just have to wait for the baby to be born.”

Ye Xuan thought to himself.

As long as the child is born, he can receive the system reward.

Don’t know what rewards you can get?

Ye Xuan was looking forward to it.

The system produces, although not all of them are boutique, but for the ancient people, pieces of treasures.

Such as world maps, telescopes, etc. that are rewarded by newcomers to the previous system.

These items are sparse and ordinary for modern people.

But for the ancients who had never seen these items, they were peerless treasures.

Like a world map, it may not be useful to modern people, but it can broaden the eyes of the ancients.

In ancient times, when transportation conditions were not convenient, it took days and months to cross provinces, so the ancients’ vision was not as broad as that of modern people. Perhaps they don’t even know that in addition to Daqin, Xiongnu, Baiyue and the surrounding countries, there are other colored people and other countries.

A detailed world map opens the eyes of the ancients and gives them a clear understanding of the whole world.

This is why Yingzheng attaches so much importance to the world map.

As for the telescope, as long as Ying Zheng and others use it militarily, they can detect the enemy situation and win a decisive victory thousands of miles away.

It can be described as a military weapon.

“It will take months to give birth to an heir, and this time cannot be wasted.”

“If you want to get system rewards, one is to increase the number of heirs, and the other is to expand the influence of the family.”

It takes time to give birth to an heir.

Ye Xuan began to ponder how to use modern knowledge and this information gap to expand the family’s influence.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the bamboo Jane on the table, and Ye Xuan’s head flashed violently.

“There you have it! How did I only remember now! ”

“Papermaking!”

Paper involves all aspects of modern life, books, paper cups, cardboard boxes, toilet paper, cardboard and so on.

Modern civilization is almost inseparable from paper.

Coming to this era, Ye Xuan felt that the most difficult thing was that there was no paper.

Cloth is required to wipe hands and nose, and cloth handkerchiefs need to be used many times, and toilet use “toilet chips”, that is, treated smooth wooden strips or bamboo strips.

Ye Xuan felt very uncomfortable.

But the Qin Dynasty could not have paper.

After all, papermaking was only developed during the Western Han Dynasty.

Now Cai Lun, the developer of papermaking, is estimated to have not yet been born.

Because there is no paper, the Qin Dynasty is still using bamboo and wood to engrave text.

This was very inconvenient for Ye Xuan.

The raw materials of papermaking are bark, hemp head, grass and wood gray water, etc.

These items can be easily found even in this era.

Making paper is relatively easy and simple.

If the paper is developed, I am afraid that it will be a change of the times, bringing a series of changes to the people of the Qin Dynasty. Writing no longer needs to be engraved on bamboo and wood, handkerchiefs that are no longer needed to wipe dirt, and “toilet chips” are no longer needed to go to the toilet.

This is undoubtedly equivalent to the huge change of the steam age into the electric age, which can bring great convenience to the people of the Qin Dynasty.

Moreover, if Ye Xuan can make paper, he will be able to expand the influence of the family!

“It’s up to you, papermaker!”

After Ye Xuan decided to make paper, he began to arrange it.

Purchase of papermaking raw materials.

Buy slave craftsmen.

In the purchase of raw materials, the bark of the bark is chosen instead of hemp.

This is because bark contains much higher protein, lignin, and pectin than hemp.

It can greatly increase the output of paper.

The disadvantage is that degumming and pulping are more difficult.

Choose grass and tree lime water instead of lime water.

Grass and wood ash water is more alkaline, which can improve the quality of pulp.

In addition to purchasing raw materials for making paper, some auxiliary tools are also required.

Raw material separation tools.

Pulping tools.

Tools to screen debris as well as undissociated bundles of fibers.

Paper salvator, mat.

Ye Xuan ordered the servants to buy raw materials, but also let them buy slave craftsmen.

Soon, dozens of slave craftsmen appeared in front of Ye Xuan.

These slave craftsmen wore coarse cloth and linen clothes, lowered their heads, and did not dare to raise their heads to offend Ye Xuan.

“Master, according to your orders, the craftsmen have bought them.”

“These people were carpenters, stonemasons, blacksmiths, bricklayers, carpenters, shavers, everything.”

The servant pointed to the group and introduced.

Ye Xuan nodded and spoke, “Do you know why I came looking for you?” ”

“What do adults want us to do?” I am a carpenter and I am good at carving all kinds of wooden furniture, no matter what kind of wooden furniture adults want to make. ”

The older craftsman spoke respectfully.

“Furniture?”

Ye Xuan shook his head.

“I bought you and did not make you furniture, nor stone tools, nor mats.”

“I’m going to make you paper.”

The craftsmen’s eyes widened and they showed doubt.

Paper?

What is that thing?

The people of the Qin Dynasty had never touched paper at all, and they had never seen it before, so naturally they did not know what paper was.

They were apprehensive and uneasy.

Don’t know paper, can’t do it, never do it.

What to do?

The older craftsman hesitated and spoke: “Sir, what kind of paper you are talking about, we have never made it, this… It’s hard for a woman to cook without rice. ”

“Yes, my lord, we have struck iron, cut wood, and woven mats, but we have never made paper.”

Other craftsmen also spoke.

Ye Xuan glanced at the restless people.

“I’ll tell you how.”

“Just do what I said.”
