Before dawn, Di Xin got up and went to attend the morning court session.
At night, he would go to Su Daji's place. Sometimes, he would call Concubine Huang or Empress Jiang over.
It had been like this for the past few days, causing many officials to constantly talk about the benevolent and wise king. The concubines in the harem were also very satisfied.
Everything was developing in an orderly manner. Under Huang Feihu's supervision, the academy was built very quickly. In a few days, it had taken shape.
And Grand Preceptor Wen had also obtained some results.
As soon as the court session ended, Grand Preceptor Wen handed the paper to Di Xin.
"So white, so soft, so delicate.”
Di Xin caressed a piece of white paper with a surprised expression. He didn't expect the quality of the finished product to be so high.
It was comparable to modern paper-making. It didn't look like something from the Shang Dynasty at all.
Paper had appeared in the Han Dynasty, but it was very crude at the beginning. There were very few of them, and the cost was very expensive. It was a luxury that only high officials and nobles could afford.
It wasn't until the Tang Dynasty that the art of making paper stabilized, and all kinds of good paper spread, allowing the children of the commoners to be able to afford paper.
The development of paper and printing technology also promoted the advancement of education.
The imperial examination system was also born at that time, allowing Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty to ruthlessly earn a reputation and leave his name in history.
But now that Emperor Xin was here, it was likely that the future Emperor Taizong would not be able to get this false reputation.
"The quality of this paper is really good. I wonder how much it cost.”
Di Xin asked. It didn't matter if the paper was expensive since it could be produced in such an environment. He just needed to slowly research and reduce the cost in the future.
"This item is very cheap to make. It can be made with just some rags, fishing nets, and hemp.”
Grand Preceptor Wen said.
"How can you create such high-quality paper just like that?”
Di Xin asked in disbelief.
In modern times, paper could be of such high quality and cheap because of machines.
After all, this was the Shang Dynasty!
In the eyes of many modern people, this era was no different from primitive tribes.
But to be able to produce such high-quality paper, this was really a little unbelievable.
"When I was making the paper, I used some magic power and magic treasures. That was why he was able to make the pulp extremely fine. When it was filtered out, he used his magic power to smooth it out, and this was the paper.”
Hearing Grand Preceptor Wen's words, Di Xin slapped his head.
He was too careless. He had forgotten that this was the World of Gods. This was a world with magic power and Dao techniques.
If used well, it could be a great killing weapon that could allow productivity to quickly approach the modern world.
"This item is very good. I wonder if it can be used on a large scale.”
Di Xin asked. If a piece of paper consumed too much magic power, only someone like Wen Zhong could do it.
Then he should just follow the modern route.
"Of course. I plan to travel around the world and visit my fellow disciples. He wanted them to refine magic treasures. With the help of magical equipment, ordinary people could easily make such high-quality paper.”
Grand Preceptor Wen stroked his beard and said confidently.
"Then I'll have to trouble Grand Preceptor. I'll start preparing for the opening of the school now and wait for Grand Preceptor to bring back the magic treasure and teacher.”
Di Xin said happily.
There were many disciples in Jie School, and many of them were good at refining Dharma treasures.
Perhaps Great Shang could even enter the industrial stage ahead of time.
As long as they entered the process of industrialization, Chan School would not interfere.
With those guys from Western Zhou, he could easily crush them to death.
After some discussion, Grand Preceptor Wen left the palace and prepared to visit his fellow disciples.
Meanwhile, Di Xin called Shang Rong and Bi Gan over.
"The main reason why I asked my two beloved ministers to come is that the academy is about to be built. The first batch of students is the most important and it concerns the country of Great Shang. It really wasn't good to hand it over to others, so I could only trouble the two of you.”
"It is our duty to share the king's worries. I wonder what the king wants us to do.”
Bi Gan cupped his hands and said.
"Royal Uncle, go and recruit apprentices. The requirements for apprentices are not high. First, they have to be clean and honest. It doesn't matter if they are stupid, they have to be honest. Third, they couldn't all be the children of nobles. They had to be commoners, and the nobles had to be half of them. No matter how outstanding the children of the nobles were, they could not recruit too many.”
After all, the academy had courses such as Dao techniques and refining.
Smart children were good, but if one or two Nezhas came, they would be dead.
Great Shang wasn't as powerful as Immortal Tai Yi, who could suppress the fact that his disciple had defeated the Dragon King of the East Sea.
The descendants of the nobles simply prevented the imperial court from forming a group and forcefully maintained the path to rise from the bottom.
When the first batch of students had basically taken shape and formed a positive educational circle, the students after that did not have so many requirements.
"I will not disappoint Your Majesty.”Bi Gan said.
"As for Lord Shang, please help me formulate the academy's rules and assign the management personnel.”
After handing over the matters of the academy, Di Xin expressed his views on printing.
