Chapter 104: Papermaking, digging up the roots of the family



Wang Mengyu said: "Needless to say, it will definitely be very popular. People all over the world will scramble to buy it..."

As he spoke, Wang Mengyu's eyes suddenly widened, then he took a deep breath and looked at Zhao Hao.

"Brother Hao, you're not saying... you want to make this kind of paper yourself, right?"

Zhao Hao said calmly: "You are right. I want to make paper. I want to make a kind of paper that is cheap, easy to use, and affordable for everyone."

Hearing this, the two of them swallowed hard.

Zheng Zhiqian said, "Brother Hao, are you kidding? Can you really make this kind of paper?"

Wang Mengyu was shocked and said, "Brother Hao, if you can really make paper that is cheap and comparable to bamboo paper, then we will be really rich!"

"Like I said, I'm afraid everyone in the world will be scrambling to buy it!"

Zhao Hao nodded and said, "Of course, when did I ever brag? Well... not until I entered the Heavenly Prison."

Since those big super families have been causing trouble for him time and time again.

Then he might as well dig out the roots of those super families!

Why can the aristocratic families be so rampant?

They could even influence the imperial court, and the emperor had to give them some leeway.

Isn’t it because they have mastered the cultural context of the world?

Isn’t it because almost 70% of the ministers in the court come from their various families?

OK.

So I invented paper that is both cheap and easy to use.

Then came printing.

All the books that the poor people on the market cannot afford are sold at very low prices.

Let everyone in Daxia be able to study, and then children from poor families can also serve as officials in the court.

Let’s see how you can still show off!

He wanted to see whether these aristocratic families would still be as rampant as they are now!

As for using commercial means to attack the businesses of those wealthy and powerful families?

Zhao Hao just skipped it.

Too low level!

And it’s too light!

If you want to play, then play big!

Dig out the roots of the aristocratic families!

He is not a good man.

Deep down, he is a ruthless person.

In his previous life, he did not have smooth sailing in the business world.

When he was weak, all those who had stepped on him were finally stepped back on by him.

Zhao Hao said: "You guys prepare for the soap workshop and the store in the next two days."

"You can hand it over to your respective families. If you don't want to hand it over to your families, you can find someone trustworthy to take care of it."

"Then you two started following me to make paper."

"Winter is only two months away. We don't have much time. We must make the first batch of paper before winter comes!"

"It's inconvenient to work in the winter!"

"Our winter is not only long, but also very cold."

“Not suitable for papermaking.”

The two of them nodded excitedly.

"Okay, we'll go back and make arrangements!"

"Don't worry, Brother Hao, we'll attack wherever you point us, and we promise not to hold you back!"

Zhao Hao nodded.

"By the way, bring over all the money earned from the soap workshop during this period."

"Two or three thousand strings of cash should be enough."

After hearing what he said, the expressions of Wang Mengyu and Zheng Zhiqian suddenly became strange.

Zhao Hao immediately said angrily: "What do you two have on your faces? I have no money. The money for the first floor and the dry wine were all taken away by the princess to subsidize the court."

"You know how much money the court needs, right?"

Wang Mengyu said in disbelief: "Brother Hao, Her Royal Highness took all the money and left nothing for you?"

Zheng Zhiqian was speechless and said, "Really...Brother Hao, you have been selling tofu, opening a restaurant, and brewing wine during this period of time. What are you trying to achieve..."

Wang Mengyu whispered: "What's the point? It's all flattery..."

Zhao Hao's face suddenly turned red, and he glared at the two of them unhappily.

"You two bastards, don't you know why I'm in prison?"

"I finally got out, can I not flatter you?"

Wang Mengyu smiled awkwardly: "Hey, Brother Hao, I didn't say anything, nothing."

Zhao Hao glanced at the two of them and said, "Alright, hurry up and do your work. Hurry up."

The two of them agreed and ran away quickly.

Zhao Hao called Lao Zhong up again.

"Old Zhong, Her Royal Highness the Princess hasn't taken the money from the store recently, has she?"

"No, Your Highness took the money from last month. It's not the end of this month yet, so you should come to the end of the month to get it."

Zhao Hao nodded and asked, "How much is it in this half month?"

Old Zhong said, "I haven't settled the accounts yet, but since we started selling dry liquor, our daily income has been 60 to 80 guan."

"So far this month, I think it's about a thousand guan."

Zhao Hao said: "Okay, keep this money for me, I will need it in the next few days."

"Also, don't worry about the first floor for now. I have more important things for you to do!"

Old Zhong was startled and asked quickly, "Master, what are you going to do? Our business is doing well now, you can't mess around!"

Zhao Hao immediately rolled his eyes and glared at Lao Zhong unhappily.

"You bastard, when did I mess around?"

"Just do what I tell you to do, why are you wasting your time talking!"

Old Zhong said with a bitter face: "No, Master, I am just worried!"

Zhao Hao said speechlessly: "I don't need you to worry about my ass. Do you believe that if you keep on nagging me, I will really sell you to Cuiming Tower as a pimp?"

Old Zhong's pupils shrank and he quickly took two steps back.

"Master, please don't do that. I am not strong enough to do that!"

Zhao Hao said, "Then stop talking nonsense. By the way, if you are not here to watch over the shop, is there any waiter who can replace you?"

Old Zhong thought about it, shook his head and said, "Master, it seems that there really isn't one."

"These waiters are quite skillful, but they are not so good at dealing with people and welcoming guests."

Zhao Hao frowned and said unhappily, "You are also a waste. The First Floor has been open for such a long time, and you haven't even trained a replacement!"

"Forget it. I'll ask Her Royal Highness the Princess when the time comes to see if she has any suitable candidates!"

After scolding Lao Zhong, Zhao Hao came out from the first floor and walked towards home.

He still needs to carefully sort out the complete process of papermaking.

In fact, the whole process of papermaking is not too complicated.

However, if you want to produce in large quantities and build up a scale, you will need to hire a large number of workers, make a large number of tools, and invest a relatively large amount of money.

If we are going to do it, we need to set up a workshop and standardize the process.

The only difficult part is hanging the paper.

To produce large amounts of paper, it is necessary to dry it at the same time.

To dry each piece of paper, you need a smooth wooden board.

This is quite troublesome.

As for the address, Jiang Wan'er just rewarded him with three imperial manors.

He planned to put the paper-making workshop in one of the imperial manors.
