Three Kingdoms.

  Chapter 1653 new outline

Zhuge Jin is now the chief bookkeeper under Jing Zhaoyin, in charge of correspondence and accounts. It is a very important position. It is equivalent to Pang Tong's deputy, and it is also a relief to Pang Tong. complain about suffering.

  However, what Fei Qian didn't expect was that Zhuge Jin would bring a badge just a few days after taking office.

  Strictly speaking, this inscription is not Zhuge Jin's, but Zhuge Jin's forwarded it. However, if Pang Tong handles it, he may immediately throw the inscription aside without even showing it to Fei Qian.

   "My lord, you might as well take a look at what this table says..." Zhuge Jin sent it up and said.

   "Oh?" Fei Qian took the watch badge.

"Everything is not enough to talk about big things, and its material is not enough to prepare utensils, so the king will not use it. The king will accept the people in the track. The story is told by the track, which is called 'track'; the material is collected from the chapters and things , It’s called ‘things’. If it’s not in the right order, it’s called chaotic government. Chaotic government is urgently implemented, so it’s also defeated...”

  Fei Qian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he threw the seal on the table and said, "Is this the effect of a solar eclipse?"

  Chang’an also saw the solar eclipse, so naturally there will be tongue-twisters, professional touchers, and hard-charging hotspots, just like someone in the later generations who sees something hot and wants to go up and take a bite...

  Pang Tong glared at Zhuge Jin, quite dissatisfied. Pang Tong threw aside such meaningless badges for hussars after reading them, and never took a second look. As a result, Zhuge Jin delivered them to Fei Qian for a look.

   "The whole article is long-winded, but in fact it only said one sentence, to fight for the interests of the people is not a gentleman..." Fei Qian looked at Zhuge Jin and said, "Ziyu thinks so too?"

  Zhuge Jin cupped his hands and said, "No way. However, there are many such remarks in the market, so we must pay attention to them."

  Pang Tong sneered and said, "It's an old practice again..."

Qingliu in the wild, the habitual way is to criticize the ruling party, but among the eggs, not only the bones can be picked out, but even dinosaur fossils can be picked out. This time there is such a good opportunity as a solar eclipse, how could it be easily missed? , Naturally, it is a hot spot, expressing all kinds of opinions, a large part of which is to say that the Hussar General is not doing his job properly, competing with the people for profit, and engaging in various workshops...

  Especially when it comes to papermaking, he thinks that papermaking is a way to benefit saints, so it should not be a method for hussars to make money, but should be spread widely so that everyone in the world can benefit.

   Feiqian pondered for a while, stood up, and said to Pang Tong and Zhuge Jin: "There is a saying that seeing a hundred things is worth seeing. Let's go to Chengnan Paper Mill..."

  …ε=ε=ε=ε=ε=ε=┌(;￣◇￣)┘…

  A stream of clear water was brought in by a sink made of bamboo, and then poured into a pool made of stone strips on the ground, which seemed a bit deep.

   Fei sneaked a glance at Pang Tong, pointed to the stone pools in front of him where bamboo pulp and wood pulp were being hammered and said, "Shi Yuan, do you want to try it?"

  Pang Tong shook his head like a rattle, "I'm tired just looking at it, don't go, don't go...how about letting Tzuyu go?"

Pang Tong thought it was just to shirk, but he said it casually, but Zhuge Jin was quite interested, and immediately **** his lower skirt and sleeves, and then imitated the appearance of a paper maker, holding up the big wooden vertebra with both hands, exhaling loudly and then once Start hammering the pulping water.

  Seeing Zhuge Jin pounding the pulp, Fei Qian stretched out his hand to signal for the master craftsman in charge of the paper mill to come over, and then asked, "Why are you still using only human power? Haven't the hydraulic pounding cones been installed yet?"

  The master craftsman in charge of the paper mill said respectfully: "Reporting to Huqi, this is the second pounding, and manpower is required to make it precise... The hydraulic pounding cone has been installed long ago, but the first pounding was done in the backyard..."

   "Oh... I see..." Fei Qian nodded, and then said, "How much paper can be produced now?"

   "Reporting to the Hussars, we can produce 20 square meters of paper per month..." the great craftsman replied.

   "It's still too few..." Fei Qian said, "Recruit some more... Shi Yuan..."

  Pang Tong nodded in agreement.

  Papermaking is actually not complicated, but it is not simple either. Pulping is the most arduous work among them. After the pulping is completed, the pulp can be washed, then the pulp is fixed, and finally the paper is discharged.

Although Zhuge Jin is young, he is not used to such hard work like a paper maker, and he does not know how to save effort in the process of pounding pulp. After about a stick of incense, his breath began to scatter, his muscles and bones were exhausted, and he panted heavily. Coming down from the pounding pool, he said with a breathless breath, "Now... I've done it myself, so I know... it's not easy..."

   "It's not easy to make paper, isn't it? Haha, Tzuyu might as well take a break first..." Fei subconsciously asked the guards to bring the water bag.

  Zhuge Jin was sweating all over his body, and he was naturally thirsty. After thanking him, he unplugged the water bag, and then drank in small sips.

The pulping process continues until the pulp is finely crushed and the bamboo fibers and wood fibers are basically separated. Then add quicklime and stir at the same time. The quicklime will also heat the pulp while it is bleaching, and then pour the pulp out while it is still hot. Put it into a larger stone basin, and then use gauze to copy out bamboo fibers and wood fibers, and buckle them on another prepared wooden board. If there are no mistakes in all the processes, it can be made into paper.

  The three of Fei Qian surrounded the finished paper, inspecting the paper's fineness.

  For Fei Qian, this kind of paper is actually similar to the straw paper of later generations, and there is still a considerable gap from the most piled up copy paper in the office warehouse of later generations, but in the eyes of Pang Tong and Zhuge Jin, it is already considered a fine product.

  Zhuge Jin lightly picked up a piece of paper, maybe because he directly participated in part of the labor just now, he had a special feeling, so he couldn't help saying: "If you write a small book, it may be worth a thousand words!"

   Feiqian nodded, pointed to these papers and said: "It is ten times cheaper to print a book on this paper! But the price is also expensive... The so-called competition for profit with the people is not wrong..."

   "My lord..."

  Pang Tong was about to say something, but was stopped by Fei Qian.

   "A certain widely spread the matter of farming and mulberry, but he was stingy about it... Not only that, but also wiped out private workshops everywhere, and banned imitation products..." Fei Qian smiled, looked at Zhuge Jin and said, "Is this what Ziyu meant?"

  Zhuge Jin cupped his hands and said: "This thing is the same as Nongsang, and it is of great benefit to the world...My lord has a heart for the whole world, so why..."

   "In Ziyu's eyes, this thing is the same as Nongsang..." Fei Qian nodded, then shook his head again, "However, there are differences..."

"The matter of farming and mulberry is a matter of the world. Whether it is the new field plow or the new calendar, it is directly given to the most common head of the Han Dynasty... and these papers..." Fei Qian looked at Zhuge Jin and said, "Can the people of the Han Dynasty use it? ?”

   "This..." Zhuge Jin froze for a moment, then said, "No."

Fei Qian nodded and said: "That's right, for ordinary people, these papers are not as convenient as the bamboo and wood that can be seen everywhere in the mountains and forests, so these papers are not used by ordinary people, so how can they benefit the people of the world?" ? If it is really beneficial to the people of the world, someone will definitely not be stingy, but like this, something that only benefits some people, how can you come to accuse Yu in the name of the people of the world?"

Common people's things are the least valuable, whether it is labor or time. For the common people in the Han Dynasty, even if there was paper, such things that cannot be written repeatedly must not be accepted for a long time. Ordinary people accept it. After all, there are free bamboos and woods everywhere, and you can make bamboo slips and wooden slips by yourself. If you make a mistake, you can just scrape it with a knife, which is very convenient. As for wasting time and energy, this is not what ordinary people consider at all. question.

   Therefore, for a short period of time, or a long period of time, for ordinary people, paper cannot completely replace bamboo slips and wooden slips.

   So, who is the user of paper?

   Undoubtedly, it is the gentry, the powerful, and the government, but it will definitely not be the common people.

   Then Fei Qian spreads the method of making paper and spreads it all over the world, so that the cost of paper making can be reduced, and then cheaper and more paper will appear?

Totally impossible.

  Why does Feiqian promote papermaking? It is because Fei Qian wants to carry out more efficient administrative management on the one hand, and promote the popularization of knowledge on the other hand, and these two aspects, bamboo slips and wooden slips, have become an obstacle.

Today, the area controlled by Feiqian is from south to north, from east to west. Compared with when he was in Bingbei, it has expanded by more than several times. Correspondingly, the texts related to people's livelihood and government affairs submitted by various places have increased several times. Every day There were carts and horses carrying whole loads of bamboo slips and wooden tablets to Chang'an...

Not only that, in the process of jurisdiction and governance of counties and counties, archival preservation is also an important tool, which can be used as a reference for successors and can also be used as a basis for superior management. The establishment of archives and as detailed records as possible also require Lightweight paper that can hold more words.

   Not to mention the role of paper in the dissemination of literary knowledge...

  And in the early days of paper promotion, would the gentry tyrants be willing to take on this responsibility?

   Obviously impossible. The tyrants of the gentry wanted to obtain papermaking technology from Feiqian, but they wanted to save money on the one hand and make money on the other. They didn't have much interest in promoting the use of paper. For these people, bamboo and wood are already very good for ordinary Limin people, so what paper do they use?

  Zhuge Jin was silent for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "My lord is really worried, Jin was thinking about it earlier..."

  Pang Tong curled his lips and said, "Next time you encounter something like this, just ignore it!"

  Zhuge Jin bowed and saluted, expressing that he did not do well.

   Fei Qian stroked the beard above his chin, thought for a while, but shook his head and said, "No, Ziyu's actions reminded a certain..."

The transportation in the Han Dynasty was inconvenient, so once the local officials in counties and counties were sealed off, it was basically difficult to control them. This was also the root cause of many problems. On the other hand, a large family and a large surname should not be too large, otherwise there will be various situations that cannot be lost. Therefore, on the road of balance, the emperors of various dynasties walked with trepidation.

   Moreover, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Even though Fei Qian, like Zhuge Jin at the moment, can control public opinion and explain the truth in Chang'an or Sanfu area, but what about other places? If there is the same form as Zhuge Jin delivered, how can the county guards in various places ensure that they are in step with the central government and that there will be no problems in execution?

   Or, to minimize the problem if it is impossible to avoid it completely?

   "Let's have a meeting..." Fei Qian thought for a while, and it seemed that this was the only way at the moment.

   "Drive what?" Pang Tong widened his eyes, as if he had a bad premonition.

"Hey, let's go, come out, why don't you just go to Qinglong Temple to have a look, and talk over there..." Fei Qian patted Pang Tong on the shoulder, then left the papermaking workshop, and came to Qinglong Temple with his guards hula la engineering site.

After arriving at Qinglong Temple, Fei Qian summoned the officials who supervised the construction at Qinglong Temple, asked about the progress and project status, and then took Pang Tong and Zhuge Jin to the high **** beside him, watching the construction scene in full swing, and said: " If you don’t come to see it in person, if you are, how can you know the engineering situation here and ensure that there are no deviations here?”

   "What's so difficult about this? Either send someone to take a look, or have someone report it after a while..." Pang Tong said, shaking his head.

   Fei Qian turned his head to look at Zhuge Jin.

  Zhuge Jin thought for a while, then cupped his hands and said: "Or it can be calculated based on the changes in the number of surrounding civil engineering objects, labor transfers, etc..."

Fei Qian nodded, and said with a smile: "Exactly, it is possible for Shiyuan to employ people and Ziyu to talk about things... But, this does not guarantee that the craftsmen will build according to the requirements... You may wish to think again, what is it?" Let these craftsmen understand what to do? To what extent?"

  Pang Tong rolled his eyes and said, "The construction plan? My lord's intention is..."

Fei Qian said with a smile: "That's right! If you want to build a palace, you have a plan, so you know where you want to build it, and what shape you want to build...However, the world is so big and there are thousands of buildings, how can there be no plan? "

  Pang Tong took a deep breath.

  Zhuge Jin's eyes were shining brightly, and he seemed a little excited.

  Pang Tong said with a bitter face, "I can't do this...My lord..."

  Zhuge Jin cupped his hands and said: "My lord's strategy is worth a thousand years! Jin should work hard to achieve it!"

  Pang Tong snorted, "You alone can't do it... this... God, I have enough things..."

   "Haha..." Fei Qian patted Pang Tong on the shoulder and said, "I didn't say to let one person do it all, so you can't find more people? Just when the Qinglong Temple was built..."

   "Find more people?" Pang Tong said suspiciously, "In this way...wouldn't it be..."

   Feiqian knew what it meant, so he shook his head and said, "The world is where people live... let's observe it, let's tolerate it, so why not?"

  Pang Tong was thoughtful, but still shook his head, sighed, and touched his belly. Zhuge Jin on the side was excited, with piercing eyes.

   Fei Qian chuckled, and stood with his hands behind his back facing the slight haze. Anyway, this world is completely different from the original one, so why not try some new ways? Is it possible that after knowing the muddy road in China for thousands of years, you still step on it? Throwing two stones, even if you can't cross the river by feeling the stones, you can step on your feet...
