Chapter 415 The Significance of Papermaking

He, who had just returned to the city, also declined the celebration banquet that others said. Now he has no merit to celebrate, so where did the celebration banquet come from.

Although he had put in a lot of hard work this time and got a lot in the end, Qin Shuo was not satisfied with the ending.

"Can't you just listen to me a little bit? Don't sit on the roof, this is not that fierce beast."

Qin Shuo said, and then looked at the girl with a speechless expression.

When he returned to the city, Da Qiao also brought his little bamboo rat over, saying that he was coming to say hello.

Then she was seen by the girl, and she ran to the roof immediately. It looked like she was going to fight the little bamboo rat to the death. There was no way. In his impression, this gluttonous glutton was also a very terrifying beast.

It's just that now it's a little bamboo rat with no viciousness. Qin Shuo can't see the appearance of a monster at all, so he can only leave it there.

In the end, Qin Shuo managed to call the girl down. This was the person he had spent all the battle points to reluctantly exchange.

But now I didn't expect that this girl actually didn't listen to her words at all, she was a maverick, who could stand it.

But Qin Shuo has nothing

The solution, after all, she has already gotten her out now. Fortunately, she doesn't know why she likes to be by her side, otherwise, she would have already run away.

This time Qin Shuo can confirm one thing again. If nothing else, this time, he is likely to be trapped by the Yellow Emperor again.

Now it is estimated that he has been used to the pit by his ancestors, Qin Shuo actually feels that there is nothing.

It's just that there is definitely still some unhappiness in the heart, but this time to get something, it must be put into practice.

The first is the improved papermaking technique. Qin Shuo immediately sent it to the craftsman workshop, and asked the top-level craftsmen to study it together, and then asked them to strictly abide by the secret.

Because all of their family members work under Qin Shuo, there is basically no possibility of mutiny, and this news should not be spread.

If it spreads out, it is estimated that the entire big Han family will cause a big earthquake. Now the improvement of papermaking is a very abnormal big thing for them.

The first is the convenience of cultural dissemination, which is also greatly reduced by paper. Today's paper is actually not much cheaper than ordinary silk.

Even with some fine paper, the price is very high

Expensive, those that are not sophisticated, are also very unsuitable for writing and preservation.

Qin Shuo is now asking his subordinates to print a hundred volumes of Sun Tzu's Art of War and a hundred volumes of Wu Tzu as soon as the paper is made. These are all for the generals under his command to improve their skills. cultural quality.

In fact, the biggest advantage of improving papermaking is that it makes the carrier of cultural dissemination cheaper, that is, it makes the dissemination of culture even cheaper. In today's world, there are many people who don't read books because they can't read books.

After all, it's not like they were under Qin Shuo's hands, and they still had about three years of compulsory education. They were completely reduced to farmers, and they didn't know how many talents were buried.

It can be guessed that once this thing is born, it is not like making paper, but more like printing money, and it can also generate many subsidiary occupations.

The first is the profession of copying books, because the printing technology is still not born, so these articles still need to be copied manually.

At that time, even if I sell it at the price of one gold and one hundred chapters, it is estimated that the supply will be in short supply. A craftsman can make at least a thousand sheets of paper a day.

Then it means that a craftsman can earn ten gold a day, so now there are 10,000 craftsmen, which is equivalent to every day

That's about a hundred thousand gold.

In this case, there are only one million sheets of paper, but the manufacturing process can also be improved. When there are more productions in the future, it is estimated that 10,000 sheets a day will not be too bad.

Qin Shuo now regards this paper as a strategic material, and it is also a very useful strategic material, not only can be used to make money, but also can be used to attack those noble families.

Those aristocratic families monopolized the economy, politics, and culture. Now, the dissemination of paper can also directly cultivate a large number of talents. Then, they have no advantage in terms of culture.

Coupled with culture, it can also radiate economics and politics, and it still has very important strategic significance.

In the future, once I can truly develop, maybe I really don't need to spend much time dealing with those aristocratic families. Instead, those aristocratic families will come to them one by one.

These are actually points in Qin Shuo's current plan. Whether it can be realized or not depends on the future development.

When the craftsmen saw the improved method of this paper, they were all amazed. They never thought that the expensive paper could be produced so easily.

Now the trees on the mountain are also unknown

There are so many Taos, and if they are all used to make paper, there are inexhaustible resources.

"My lord, leave this matter to us, if it can really be done

If it is successful, then this matter can also be famous for eternity. "

The craftsman commander also said, with a kind of excitement on his face.

"How many artisans are there in the city now? What are the arrangements for these artisans now?"

Qin Shuo said, and then looked at the craftsman commander beside him.

"Now there are more than 30,000 craftsmen, and there are still some who are training, about 50,000 people. Basically, there are only craftsmen at the species level or above. in preparation."

The craftsman commander also said, and replied to Qin Shuo's question.

"What is the current monthly payment of these craftsmen? Let me introduce you a little/"

After Qin Shuo nodded, he also sat down.

"Intermediate craftsman hardware, senior craftsman ten gold, master-level craftsman fifty gold, and some leading craftsmen, most of them are around fifty gold, as for myself, it is the most, with almost two hundred gold. ."

The craftsman commander also said a little embarrassedly, as if he deserved so much money.
