After being forced to marry the Demon King, she usurped the throne by relying on the infrastructure

Chapter 15 15. The First Sheet of Paper and Movable Type
In recent days, all the demons in the city have been busy.

The demon people who have nothing to do are wandering around, eager to find a job.

Although Her Royal Highness said that every demon will have an errand in the future, seeing their neighbors being elected to the coal mines made everyone not anxious.

And Yin Jixue didn't expect to make the first paper so soon. Although the paper is rough, a bit like that kind of cheap draft paper, it is already a great progress to have paper in this era.

The craftsman who made the paper didn't know how to use this thing. Fortunately, Yin Jixue had a simple homemade brush, and the rabbit fur on it was pulled from the rabbit fur cloak in her dowry.

"This thing is a brush, a tool for writing."

Yin Jixue's brush calligraphy is very beautiful, it is entirely because he has no memory of his previous life in the first 16 years, and learned to read and write in the palace.

For example, in the Yin Dynasty, only wealthy families could afford brushes and ink. The writing tools were bamboo slips and silk, and papermaking had not yet been invented.

Yin Jixue personally met the craftsmen who made the paper.

"According to what we said before, the paper is made by you, and the paper supply in the city will be handed over to you afterwards. If you need manpower, I can select it for you. Do you have any questions?"

The craftsman was ecstatic when he made the paper, but he was so excited to see Her Majesty the Queen that he couldn't say a word, and since Her Majesty the Queen entrusted him with such an important matter, he must do his best!
"No problem, everything is under the arrangement of Her Majesty the Queen."

Yin Jixue told him about movable type printing: "Children need textbooks in class, and Mr. Zhongshang and Mr. Nan can't learn anything by dictation alone. They still need unified books. I heard that you are good at engraving, and this matter is very suitable for you. , I will choose the manpower for you and I will try my best to choose literate people."

The craftsman thanked Yin Jixue for his gratitude, and left the palace after accepting Yin Jixue's task.

The only advantage of this era is that both humans and demons are under centralized rule, and even if she handed over papermaking and movable type printing, she is not worried about spreading it to the outside world.

Yin Jixue felt relieved when she received a thick tart of paper, and finally she didn't have to waste less and less parchments.

After all, it belongs to the Demon King, and the parchment is a one-time item, and every time it is used, one will be lost. Now it is much more convenient to have paper.

The maids and guards in the Heavenly Palace are not idle, they are all harvesting sweet taro.

They only knew that these were the seeds brought by Her Majesty the Queen, and they could actually grow something. All the demons were excited, and they definitely didn't need to live on tight clothes and food this winter.

News soon came from the coal mine that the first batch of coal had come out of the cave, and Yin Jixue organized the demons in the city to transport the coal back, giving priority to the blacksmith shop and several canteens, and then sending it to every household one after another.

There is now a school cafeteria in the city, which cooks meals for students and teachers.And there are three mine canteens outside the city, Magic Crystal Mine, Iron Mine and Coal Mine.Before cooking in these places, they went to the foot of the mountain to collect firewood one day in advance, and cut back directly when they encountered dry trees.

It is said that in order to make the firepower last, a little scorched earth will be specially added.

Yin Jixue remembered that coal poisoning was mentioned in the news of her previous life. Yin Jixue immediately wrote an official document and asked the guards to post it at the city gate and everywhere in the city, and asked the literate demons to publicize it every two hours.

Recently, there have been guards patrolling the city from time to time, and they will stop and preach loudly every few hours. It is said that it is a new order issued by Her Royal Highness.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and listened carefully. It turned out that Her Royal Highness asked everyone to pay attention to ventilation when cooking with coal to avoid poisoning.
