Chapter 54: How much does a scroll of bamboo slips weigh? How much does a piece of paper weigh?



The ministers in the hall watched as another living person was beheaded in front of them.

The fear and awe of Ying Zheng in his heart deepened.

I don’t know who this person is, but how could His Majesty just kill him without saying a word?

And what about the assassination this person mentioned?

A blind man assassinating their king?

Is this because these ministers do not exist?

When they are all vegetarian?!

Also, he actually dared to kill his Qin soldiers?

It’s really not a pity to die!

...........

Inn.

The open space in front of the inn was fenced off, and Qi Pan was squatting on the ground, fiddling with something.

When I looked up, I saw Ying Zheng and his group walking towards me.

Qi Pan's eyes lit up, "Hey? Brother! You're here!"

“Come on, come on!”

When Ying Zheng saw Qi Pan, a smile appeared on his handsome face.

"Hmm? What are you doing, sir?"

“Making paper.”

What?

Make paper?

Ying Zheng walked quickly forward and squatted down beside Qi Pan.

"This...is paper?"

"yes."

"What is it used for?"

Qi Pan said, "It's for going to the toilet."

"The two packs of tissues I brought are all used up, and you don't have any paper here."

"I'm not used to using bamboo leaves or anything like that either."

"It just so happens that the weather is nice today, so I made some paper myself."

Um?

Toilet paper?

Ying Zheng looked at the thin layer of something that Qi Pan was drying and asked in confusion.

"Is this paper? For toilet use?"

"yes."

Qi Pan said, "This is a simpler version of paper. This is the best I can make."

"Although it's rough, it's better than scraping with a bamboo stick."

"I'm really afraid of getting hemorrhoids from scraping. Why don't you buy some paper?"

"There's not even a piece of paper to be found in the entire inn."

ah.......

this.......

Ying Zheng coughed lightly and said, "Ahem...it's not that I don't want to buy it, it's really...it's really hard to buy..."

Zhao Gao, who was following Ying Zheng, thought to himself.

It’s more than just hard to buy.

You can’t buy that at all!

This thing is not even available in Daqin, you can’t buy it even if you want to!

It has been a while, and today His Majesty is finally willing to take him out of the palace.

It’s not easy!

"It's okay. I know you have trouble getting paper, so I made it myself."

"Look."

Qi Pan pointed to a large basket of paper beside him.

"That'll last me a while."

"Hey? Bro, do you have any paper?"

"If not, I'll give you a basketful later."

Ying Zheng said bluntly, "Okay, it just so happens that I haven't used this paper yet."

"Thank you, sir."

Qi Pan waved his hand, "Well, you're welcome."

"It would be better if this paper could be improved and made thinner."

"You can also use it for writing."

Um?

What?

Writing?

Can this paper be used for writing? ?

Ying Zheng asked doubtfully, "Can this paper be used for writing?"

"Sure, why not?"

Qi Pan turned around in confusion and looked at Ying Zheng beside him.

"Don't we all use paper to write? What else can we use if not paper?"

"But...the paper we use now has been improved and purified."

"It's not something I made by tinkering around. It's nothing compared to toilet paper."

As he spoke, Qi Pan reached out and pinched the paper paste that was almost dried.

The disgust on his face was particularly obvious, "Tsk, I feel uncomfortable using this paper to wipe my butt."

She wasn't joking.

There are many rough fibers and bamboo thorns on this paper, which feel uncomfortable when you hold it in your hand.

Wiping your butt...it really hurts.

If you are not careful, you might get pricked a few times.

When she was in her hometown, she even found toilet paper too hard.

Not to mention this, it's paper that's not even as good as straw paper.

Improved paper?

Or paper that can be used for writing?

Ying Zheng asked, "What does this improved version of paper look like?"

"ah?"

Qi Pan blinked in confusion, "Didn't I give you a piece of paper before?"

Um?

Gave it to him?

when? ?

"When did you give me the paper, sir?"

"Just last time."

Qi Pan said, "The last time you came, I gave you a piece of paper with something drawn on it."

"That one, you forgot?"

As he spoke, Qi Pan poked Ying Zheng with his elbow.

ah?

The one I gave him last time, the one with the drawings on it?

oh!

So that's called paper?!

He also asked how it was possible to paint on something so thin.

So that's paper?!

It’s still paper that can be used for drawing and writing!

As soon as she saw Ying Zheng's expression, Qi Pan knew that he had remembered.

"Do you remember now?"

"Ah... yes, yes, I remember now. The master did give me a piece of paper."

Ying Zheng asked, "Is that the improved paper?"

"yes."

Qi Pan said, "That paper is good for writing and drawing."

“However, to achieve that standard, the technology and equipment requirements are very high.”
