Wearing a golden dragon robe with five claws and a crown on his head, Ye Xin stood on the top of the Star Picking Tower, looking up at the starry sky.
Looking around, I saw the stars are shining brightly.
But in fact, in Ye Xin's eyes, what floated in the sky was a piece of golden luck.
This luck is so rich that it almost condenses into substance.
Chaoge, as the imperial city of the Great Merchants, naturally became the gathering center of the great merchants' luck.
The luck of all places in Dashang will come to Chaoge.
It's just that, looking at it at this moment, apart from the southeast, north, and south, there is still a steady stream of luck pouring towards Chaoge, but in the western sky, luck is very thin.
Ye Xin naturally understood what was going on.
The big merchants are in turmoil and wars are everywhere.
But at this moment, the three points of luck in the southeast, north and south are returning, which means that the situation in Donglu, Nanjiang and Beiyan should have stabilized.
Only Xiqi is left, and it has not yet been pacified!
This is not surprising, after all, the core of the battle between Shang and Zhou was Xiqi!
"Your Majesty!"
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps behind him.
Ye Xin looked back, Mencius and Mozi walked up to the Star Picking Tower side by side, their faces were full of joy.
Walking up to the top of the building, the two of them bowed their heads and saluted: "I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
Ye Xin looked at the two of them, waved his hands and said, "Excuse me! You two came late at night, why are you here?"
Mencius cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I and Mo Sheng have successfully made paper according to the method of Li Bai and Shen Wansan!"
"What? Made it?!"
Ye Xin was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly said: "Quick! Show it to me!"
Mencius spread out his right hand, and in the flickering light and shadow, a piece of white paper appeared in the palm of his hand, and handed it to Ye Xin.
Ye Xin took the white paper and stroked it, with a look of surprise on his face, "The quality of this paper is so good!"
Although there are still slight flaws, its quality is even comparable to modern paper-making, not like something from the Shang Dynasty at all!
You must know that paper has appeared in the Han Dynasty, but it was very rough at the beginning, and the quantity was very small, and the cost was very expensive. It was a luxury that only dignitaries could afford.
It wasn't until the Tang Dynasty that papermaking was gradually stabilized, and all kinds of good paper spread, so that common people could afford paper.
The development of paper and printing also promoted the progress of education.
The imperial examination system was also born at that time, which made Tang Taizong earn a lot of fame and left his name in history!
"The quality of this paper is really good, how about the cost?"
Ye Xin looked at Mencius and asked, it doesn't matter if it is expensive to make such paper in this environment, just study it slowly in the future.
"The cost of this item is very low. You only need some rotten cloth heads, rotten fishing nets, and sisal heads to make!"
Mencius replied with a smile.
"How can such high-quality paper be produced in this way?!"
Ye Xin asked incredulously.
The modern paper of the later generations is because of the machine, the paper can be so high-quality and cheap.
But now it is the Shang Dynasty!
In the eyes of modern people of later generations, this era is basically no different from primitive people.
However, it is really incredible that such high-quality paper can be produced!
"When Wei Chen used mana to make paper, he was able to polish the slurry to a finer level. When it was filtered out, he used mana to smooth it out. Finally, this kind of paper was obtained!"
Mencius smiled.
"I see!"
Ye Xin suddenly realized.
Although he didn't know the specific steps of making paper, he almost forgot that this is a world with mana and Taoism!
Using spell manipulation, many jobs that ordinary people can't do can be done, and the efficiency may not be worse than the machines of later generations!
If so, it is not surprising that this kind of paper was created!
But thinking of this, Ye Xin was also a little speechless.
Others travel through the prehistoric and desolate gods, and at the beginning of the game, they cut off the statue of Nuwa, or angered the saint, and what's more, they just pointed at the three thousand guests in Zixiao Palace and yelled in disdain, "Food shit, you guys rush to the street, follow such a person!" Old man, don't even try to become a saint in your life!"
But when it's my turn, I not only have to worry about rehabilitating chaos all the time, but also engage in production
If you don't know, it's okay?Going down the mountain, in front of Xiqi City, openly challenged me to stop teaching. The poor Daoist is weak and weak, so in desperation, I can only go back to Biyou Palace, and ask the master to respect him as an old man! "
? While speaking, Shen Gongbao was indignant, as if he had been wronged by the world.
"What? There is such a thing?!"
Zhao Gongming was furious when he heard the words, "How dare this interpreter deceive me so much?!"
"you do not say!"
Shen Gongbao said aggrievedly: "The members of the Chanjiao sect not only said that I do not know the destiny of the sect, but also all of them are brute beasts with fur and armor, and they are not worthy of being a member of the Taoist sect. All the disciples who are officials in Shangjiao will be sent to the list of gods, and they will destroy our Daoist foundation!"
"It's simply unreasonable!"
Zhao Gongming stared, "It's okay for Chanjiao to deceive me and stop teaching in the past! Now that the calamity has come, Chanjiao is still so deceiving. This is a blatant declaration of war with me to stop teaching!"
"Exactly!"
Shen Gongbao said: "Brother, that disciple of Yuxu Palace set up a Yuxu Formation outside Xiqi City, challenging us to stop teaching, what is that old Nanji fairy saying, anyone who is a member of my Biyou Palace, go to him Just kill one, and kick us out of the Daoist sect! The poor Taoist is unwilling to stop the teaching and suffer humiliation, so he came here this time to ask the master for help!"
"Presumptuous!"
Zhao Gongming's chest heaved with anger, and he gritted his teeth and said, "This exposition of teachings is such an insult to Biyou Palace, how can Pindao, as a big brother of the outer sect, just sit idly by!"
After finishing speaking, he looked at Shen Gongbao and said, "Junior Brother Shen, you don't have to go to Biyou Palace, there are only a few second-generation disciples of Yuxu Palace, and there is no need for Master to do it! Pindao will go to Xiqi with you, and we must Teach those Yuxu Palace disciples a lesson, let them see that we are not easy to deceive by cutting off the teaching!"
Shen Gongbao was overjoyed immediately, and said: "Thank you so much, senior brother! But senior brother, almost all the second-generation disciples of Yuxu Palace have gone down the mountain. Although senior brother has profound skills, he is hard to beat with two fists. We might as well call on a few more Fellow Daoist, let¡¯s go together again and deal with that Yuxu Palace disciple!¡±
Zhao Gongming nodded and said, "Alright!"
"Pindao went down the mountain this time to visit my three younger sisters at Sanxiao Island. This place is not far from Sanxiao Island. You go with me and explain to my three younger sisters that my three My sister is also going down the mountain together!"
Shen Gongbao rejoiced and said: "But Mistress Sanxiao from the outer sect? Before I entered the poor way, I had heard that Fairy Sanxiao has great supernatural powers and profound morals. If there are three fairies to help each other, great things will be accomplished!"
Zhao Gongming said proudly: "It is my three sworn sisters. These three sisters of mine are not only profound in Taoism, but also have the treasure bestowed by the master, and their strength is still above that of the poor!"
"Such a great kindness!"
Shen Gongbao said happily: "Senior brother, let's go quickly! The battle in Xiqi is tense, if the delay is too long, I'm afraid the ten senior brothers on Jin'ao Island will also be punished!"
Zhao Gongming nodded.
Later, the two set off at the same time, heading for Sanxiao Island
