Kong Jia glanced at Ying Zheng, but did not understand Ying Zheng's intention in doing so.

After hesitating for a moment, he picked up the paper, and then with a thought, his aura surged around him. As his fingertips slid across the paper, two lines of text appeared.

Kong Jia's eyes darkened, and he threw out a piece of paper. Instantly, a sword beam slashed down from the paper and struck the ground.

The violent force instantly cleaved a crack in the earth. Such power, even if it struck a person with considerable cultivation, could instantly shatter their bones.

Kong Jia was shocked. "How could its strength be so much greater?"

No one understands the power of Confucianism and Taoism in these words better than him. Even though he had improved and comprehended them many times before, he still could not reach such a level of strength.

But now that he has suddenly accomplished this, Kong Jia is naturally very puzzled.

Seeing this, Ying Zheng said calmly, "Ordinary paper can be used for learning, while advanced paper can be used for fighting."

Kong Jia was startled, his gaze involuntarily falling on the paper. "Advanced paper? This paper can actually increase power by so much?"

He realized what was happening, and his face lit up with uncontrollable elation. "A priceless treasure! It truly is a priceless treasure!"

It can directly enhance strength; such a thing is absolutely the most precious treasure among treasures for cultivators.

After all, most things in the world can be bought with money, but things that can enhance the power of talismans cannot be bought with money.

Even whether it exists or not is a question.

Now that it was actually right in front of him, Kong Jia was naturally overjoyed.

Seeing this, Ying Zheng's eyes remained indifferent. "If each Confucian scholar had ten of these advanced paper scrolls, do you know how much it would boost the Confucian scholars' combat strength?"

As he pondered this statement, Kong Jia's eyes changed slightly, but he still tried his best to suppress his emotions.

Ying Zheng continued, "Not only that, perhaps we can get a hundred or even a thousand for each person!"

hiss!

Kong Jia gasped.

How could the Qin Dynasty possess so many of these rare treasures?

This is a treasure trove!

Kong Jia looked at Ying Zheng and said, "If it can be done to such an extent, the Confucian school is willing to cooperate with the Qin Dynasty."

The extent to which Confucian scholars would be enhanced in combat effectiveness by having a thousand sheets of this paper per person was something Kong Jia could never have imagined.

This kind of opportunity is extremely rare and even he couldn't refuse it.

Ying Zheng frowned slightly. "I have said I will not discuss cooperation."

Kong Jia's expression darkened slightly. "Really not going to talk?"

I thought that now that things had come to this point, Ying Zheng would directly propose cooperation.

After all, his need for this paper was quite evident.

Ying Zheng's eyes gleamed. "Cooperation is out of the question, but hiring is possible."
