What appeared in front of Liu Feng was paper. Another epoch-making product had appeared. This was also one of the things he needed for a major change.
Liu Feng picked up the paper in front of him and found that it was a little yellowish. He gently pulled it a few times and found that the toughness was still acceptable.
The material that increased tenacity was a plant unique to the other world. The fiber produced was very tough, which was why the paper produced was relatively tough. When Liu Feng found out about it previously, he was happy for a long time because there was another change.
"Very good." Liu Feng was very satisfied and praised," You guys have done a good job. Continue to improve these papers. As long as the paper becomes whiter and tougher, I will reward you handsomely.”
"Yes, sir!" Everyone shouted excitedly. They had food and drinks here, and the work was not difficult. They could not find such a good job anywhere else.
Liu Feng took the stack of papers and left. He could start preparing some of his plans.
When he brought Mina back to the castle, it was already noon. It was time for lunch. Before lunch, he asked someone to call Bafu over.
While waiting for lunch, Bafu came in. Liu Feng invited him to eat together.
Lunch today was steak. Bafu looked at the exquisite ceramic plate in front of him. There was a piece of steak the size of two palms on it, and there were spices emitting fragrance on it. There was also a fried egg and wheat flour on the side.
Bafu was stunned, thinking that this was a noble's lunch. This was too extravagant. No, this was a work of art.
But how should he eat it? Bafu turned his head to look at Liu Feng and immediately imitated him. With a knife in one hand and a fork in the other, he stiffly cut the steak.
He couldn't learn from Liu Feng to cut the steak with ease. The steak on his plate was always moving, and Bafu was putting in more effort.
When he put a piece of cut steak into his mouth, he was intoxicated. He swore that everything he had eaten before was dog shit.
Mina, who was eating her steak, had a playful smile on her face. When she saw Bafu's expression, she remembered the embarrassing scene when she first ate steak.
"Bafu, is the steak okay?" Liu Feng said with a smile.
"Ah?" Bafu was stunned. He quickly stood up and bowed." Sir, this is the best thing I've ever eaten in my life."”
"Sit, sit!" Liu Feng waved his hand and gestured for him to sit down." If you like it, I'll get the kitchen to pack it up for you."”
"Thank you, sir!" Bafu bowed excitedly.
"Hurry up and eat. It won't taste good if it's cold.”Liu Feng smiled gently.
Liu Feng finished his steak very quickly. He was holding a cup of tea and slowly sipping it. He turned his head to look at Mi Na, who was eating her fourth steak. He couldn't help but laugh. This cat-eared girl really knew how to eat.
"Bafu, do you know that there are many literate people in Xiyang City?”
Bafu had just finished eating when he heard Liu Feng's question. He hurriedly sat down and said," Sir, there are too few literate people in Xiyang City. There might be one or two out of a hundred people.”
This answer was within Liu Feng's expectations. After all, it was too difficult for commoners to study in an era where they could not even eat.
"Then how many children are there between the ages of six to fourteen or fifteen?”Liu Feng asked.
"Sir, there are not many children of this age in Xiyang City. There are less than 300 of them.”Bafu hurriedly replied. He had lived in the city for many years and knew many people.
The number of children made Liu Feng frown. In the era of cold weapons, numbers were also a resource, representing the strength of the country. It seemed that his next step in his plan was to increase the population.
"Bafu, I have a mission for you.”Liu Feng waved his hand to get the maid to put away the cutlery and served Bafu a cup of tea.
"Sir, please instruct me." Bafu said respectfully. His current life was ten times better than before. He even had lunch with Lord Liu Feng. He could brag about this for a year.
"I need more literate people in Xiyang City.”Liu Feng thought for a moment and continued," Of course, I won't force others to learn to read. You only need to open an academy at night and teach everyone to read at night. Of course, it will only take one or two hours.”
Liu Feng knew that most people were busy eating and drinking during the day and would only stop at night.
" Sir, this…" Bafu was a little hesitant. For those short-sighted civilians, he didn't think that anyone would waste their time to come to his place to read.
"Don't worry, I know your concerns. I'll solve this. You just have to start the night school.”Liu Feng smiled mysteriously.
As long as there were more literate people, many of his plans would be easier to carry out. Foolish people were too easily motivated by others. Moreover, more literate people would produce talents, and he needed a large number of talents.
Alright, in the process of his teaching, he mixed in some private goods, such as how great Lord Liu Feng was and how much he had contributed to Xiyang City.
Bafu opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, he saw Liu Feng push a stack of things over and hand over a pen.
"This is white paper, something that can be used to write. It is cheaper, lighter, and more suitable for writing than parchment.”
"Go back and give it a try. Tonight, you can go to the military camp and teach those soldiers. They just need to learn how to read and some numbers.”
In the end, Bafu left the castle with an unknown mentality. He looked at the paper in his arms and the steak in his hand.
The steak was really delicious. He was willing to challenge such a life.
Because he had a mysterious and powerful city lord.
