Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 498: Twelve Zodiac Signs Origami, The Bourne Supremacy

From Chen Zhi's words, Ran Zhan sensed some hint of action, and immediately nodded and left.

After Ran Zhan left, Chen Zhi thought for a moment. He first focused on the lotus tube and noticed that the four boxes of fame gold liquid had been filled. He thought for a moment.

"When I used Encouraging Tea to teach servants, the copper plates also accumulated halo. If I draw lots now, I will get what I need at the moment. But the problem is that the main threat I face now actually comes from the war on the border. I The ones drawn by lot are most likely for the Battle of Northern Xinjiang, and may not have much to do with the paper mill, so we can’t place all our hopes on this, so we have already sent people to monitor the inside and outside of the paper mill.”

Thinking this, Chen Zhi looked at his hands again.

On his desk, there is a stack of white paper, which was recently produced by Chen's Paper Factory. Compared with the previous paper, the quality is slightly better.

However, the white paper produced these days is squeezed into the paper mill and takes up a lot of space. The key reason is that there is no market.

The Tang family is trying hard to find channels, but the Tang family's fleet has not returned yet, and their relationship network in the hinterland of the Central Plains has not yet been cleared, so it is not possible to transport white paper for the time being.

As a result, rumors gradually spread in the city that Chen Zhi's attempt failed and the white paper was squeezed like a mountain.

Even the craftsmen in the paper mill are moved by their thoughts. If someone comes to spy, they will inevitably be shaken.

Chen Zhi had a plan for this. As long as he took action, he could catch these leakers immediately and follow the clues to find the family behind them.

The reason why I am still waiting is that on the one hand I hope to catch a few more big fish, and on the other hand I am waiting for the result of the lottery. If the lottery I get happens to be related to this, I can go with the flow without being exposed. Perhaps more useful results can be obtained.

"There is a lot of news about the paper mill in the city now. It can be seen from many details that there are people behind it, and the methods are quite subtle. It should not be done by ordinary aristocratic families, and probably people from the General's Mansion. I am running around, and must have colluded with some families in the city. The Zheng family has become much more honest recently, but the more this happens, the more it shows what they are planning. After all, Zheng Shi’s captain has been removed by me. The influence in the county officialdom has been reduced so much. If you want to maintain influence, you must take action. It is abnormal for them to stand still, as if they are waiting for something."

After thinking about it, he couldn't help but shake his head: "The current espionage system is still not enough. We can't even know everything about Dai County, let alone hundreds or thousands of miles away. We have no idea about the current grassland." I was almost completely blind to the situation, so I could only prepare and plan based on experience."

Thinking like this, Chen Zhi suddenly felt something in his heart.

Then, he once again focused his attention on the lottery tube in his heart and called out the word "lot" without hesitation.

The next breath, the gold liquid of fame instantly fell from the five-element scale grid of the stick, and a bamboo stick appeared in the hand.

Chen Zhi looked down and noticed the word "mo" in seal script, and couldn't help but be slightly startled.

"The Mo family's signature? It's actually the Mo family's signature again. I have a relationship with the Mo family these days. I had the Mo family's signature before. Later, I met two Mohists and asked them to write letters to their uncles. I don't know if the letters have been delivered. Now I actually drew lots again and got another Mojia lot."

After receiving the bamboo stick, Chen Zhi did not rush to interpret it. Instead, he called his servant and explained it. Then he sat down again and inspected the bamboo stick. He noticed that the five-element scale grid that had just been cleared was being displayed with the naked eye. The speed is increasing rapidly.

"This range is really good. It seems that the results have been produced in Luoyang, which saves me some worries."

With this understanding, Chen Zhi calmly took the bamboo stick in front of him and gently spit out the words "understanding". Then the bamboo stick disappeared and was replaced by twelve strange things.

These twelve things are all white, but they have different shapes, light and petite. They are clearly small animals made of white paper. If you look at the outlines, you can see different animals such as mice, cattle, snakes, etc. form.At the same time, a message came into Chen Zhi's heart.

"With origami of the twelve zodiac signs, what you see is what you get. Seeing on paper is like seeing on paper. If you do it with paper, you can know foreign things."

This simple sentence made Chen Zhi narrow his eyes. He thought for a moment, took a long breath, and understood.

"Sure enough, it is what is needed at the moment. Although this kind of object is not durable and has many restrictions. It cannot be taken out when it is cloudy or rainy, but its effect is really amazing. Listening to this introduction, it means that I can get more out of thin air. Twelve pairs of eyes, and they are eyes that have left the body. They can detect the outside world through these origami. This is much more cost-effective than training spies, and it is also more concealed!"

Thinking like this, Chen Zhi picked up the first origami paper, the paper mouse, and flicked it lightly. The mouse suddenly shook, and then turned around, lifelike.

As soon as Chen Zhi let go of his hand, the mouse landed on the ground, and then darted towards the outside of the house flexibly and quickly!

Although it was made of paper, the mouse looked like the real thing. As soon as he left the door, he turned around and came to the corner. Then he climbed up the wall and ran on the top of the wall in a blink of an eye. Disappeared at the end of sight.

Soon, night falls.

In Chen's Paper Mill, the craftsmen who had been busy all day also relaxed.

Li Li, as the person in charge and foreman, talked to a craftsman who had just relaxed and left the workshop, encouraging them constantly.

In particular, a rather thin young man received praise from Li Li.

"Xiao Quan, you did a good job today. I will tell the supervisor and ask him to tell the head of the family to win your reward."

When the thin young man Xiaoquan heard this, he nodded and bowed with a smile. After thanking him and being praised a few times, he said goodbye to Li Li and walked to his sleeping place.

The Chen family's workshop is now quite large. Due to the transportation and storage of materials, Chen Zhi bought several surrounding private houses, which also serve as a sleeping place for these craftsmen——

In order to create an atmosphere of confidentiality for the paper makers, Chen Zhi managed the craftsmen quite strictly and created a family background that reduced their contact with the outside world. Of course, as compensation, these craftsmen received considerable rewards.

Xiaoquan returned to his sleeping place, but instead of resting, he looked around. After realizing that no one was paying attention to him, he carefully came to a corner of the courtyard, took out a mud ball from his arms, and threw it directly over the wall. out, and then quickly go back.

Not long after, a person came outside the wall. After groping for a while, he picked up the clay pill. After taking it away, he found a piece of paper with slanted writing on it.

The man grinned.

He didn't notice a tiny figure swaying slightly on the wall.

　Thanks to "Duzui丨丨Under the Moon", "I am Awen", "Xingchen Longying", "Xueyu Taoist", "lashes", "[Sparks]" and "Shendan Seng" for the rewards!
