Chapter 40 Papermaking

Li Zhi nodded, gave Bigan a seat, and said to Bigan, "Uncle Emperor, I would like to ask you, how are you doing with the things I entrusted to you last time?"

Bigan thought for a while and said to Li Zhi: "Your Majesty did those papermaking techniques?"

Li Zhi nodded.

"Correct."

Bigan's bearded beard said to Li Zhi: "I have already made some plans, and it may not be long before the paper quality that His Majesty mentioned will be produced!"

After hearing this, Li Zhi's eyes lit up and he said to Bigan, "Oh? There is such a good thing. Uncle Huang took me to see it!"

After Bigan heard Li Zhi's words, he quickly took Li Zhi into the Ministry of Industry.

When he entered the Ministry of Industry, Li Zhi found that the place was strictly guarded, and there were almost countless soldiers guarding it in the open or in the dark. Not to mention people, even a sparrow would not be able to fly in.

Moreover, Li Zhi also taught them to operate these things in the way of an underground city. The upper floor is used as an ordinary building, but a larger space has been dug underground for more concealed things.

After following Bigan down to the basement level, Li Zhi found that the underground was refreshing, and he knew that there must be a skilled craftsman who had set up the underground ventilation system well.

Inside, Li Zhi found a bronze machine. This machine was manufactured according to the blueprints of the etiquette system. It was used to grind trees, bamboo, straw, etc., and after grinding, it was finely screened and sieved, and then used to make paper.

Looking at the machine in front of him, someone used a rocker to agitate the machine, and the internal gears of the machine were driven. Although manpower is limited, the acceleration of the gears can reach the point where the machine can run.

Although it was a bit labor intensive, Li Zhi was helpless.

After all, it is still impossible to produce electricity now, but Li Zhi squinted his eyes and thought, didn't there be a Thunder God and a Lightning Mother?
When the time comes to control them, we must let them produce electricity for me.

Looking at these appearances, Li Zhi knows that the paper industry will definitely develop in a short time.

Seeing that Li Zhi was satisfied with the contrast, he said: "Uncle Huang has worked hard, let the paper things appear as soon as possible, the bamboo slips take up less space, it is too inconvenient.

Bigan naturally understood the importance of it, so he said to Li Zhi: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty!"

Then Li Zhi returned to the palace.

Sure enough, ten days later, Bigan brought the first batch of produced paper and handed it to Li Zhi.

Li Zhi found that although the quality of these paper products was average, they were better than nothing. He was very happy to see these, and then handed over the movable type printing to Bigan.

Movable type printing is actually not that difficult, but there are no ingenious ideas that really can’t come up. After seeing movable type printing, Bi Gan was even more surprised.

Immediately afterwards, Li Zhi said to Bigan: "Recently, I have been thinking in my mind, and it seems that a flash of light has flashed. It is what the heavens said, and I want to enlighten the wisdom of the people. After three days, I will announce something important!"

After Li Zhi finished speaking, Bigan's eyes lit up, he knew what kind of ability this majesty in front of him had!Not to mention such a shocking technique as papermaking.

It seems that papermaking is nothing in the eyes of His Majesty, but even Bigan is looking forward to something that His Majesty considers to be a major event.

For the past three days, Li Zhi stayed at home with these papers, writing and drawing all the time.

Fortunately, he is currently cultivated deeply, even if he does not rest for three days and three nights, it will not affect much.

Three days later, the court shook, and His Majesty King Zhou took the throne.

Beside him was a tray with four books on it.
