Qin Yun waited anxiously for a moment before Ying Zheng finally reacted. He bowed and cupped his hands at Qin Yun.
"I wonder if Gentleman Qin is preparing to open a workshop and sell this paper to the world?”
Meng Yi immediately reacted.
What was the point of them discussing so enthusiastically just now?
This piece of paper was created by Qin Yun. If Qin Yun did not agree to let others use it, it would be useless no matter how good it was!
Qin Yun was delighted.
You guys are finally doing something serious.
Pretending to be in a difficult position, Qin Yun pondered for a moment before slowly saying,""Although this white paper is rather simple, it is indeed easier to write on than silk bamboo slips.”
"If we can sell it, it will be beneficial to the world.”
"However, although I roam the mortal world, I'm not good at the path of commerce.”
Ying Zheng cupped his hands in delight and said," Please be at ease, Sir Qin. I am a wealthy merchant in Xianyang. If you are willing to cooperate with me, you can hand over all the production and sales to me!"”
Qin Yun smiled." However, I'll have to trouble Brother Zheng.”
Ying Zheng waved his hand." You must be joking, Mister Qin. If I can sell this item, I will also make a lot of money."”
"I wonder, how much does Gentleman Qin intend to sell it for?”
Qin Yun said casually," Brother Zheng, you have full authority over the business.”
"However, in my opinion, the price of this white paper shouldn't be too expensive.”
"After all, it was just something I casually did. If I were to use this to obtain huge profits, I would feel uneasy.”
Ying Zheng was overjoyed." Gentleman Qin, you are indeed a benevolent gentleman!"”
Earning money?
For Ying Zheng, who had the national treasury, money was not important. If he was forced into a corner, he could even recast the currency!
Compared to money, Ying Zheng hoped that the paper could be sold at a cheaper price so that Great Qin could nurture more literate people. He also hoped to win Qin Yun over completely.
" This white paper was created by Gentleman Qin," Ying Zheng said in a deep voice." If there is any surplus, I can share it with Gentleman Qin. Gentleman Qin will take nine, and I will take one.”
Qin Yun looked at Ying Zheng in surprise.
No way, this fat sheep was really fooled?
How could he say something like a 10 - 90 split?
Qin Yun immediately waved his hand." Brother Zheng, there's no need for that!"”
"50 - 50 will do."
Even if it was a fat sheep, he had to give it some fodder to tempt it.
Even a loyal fat sheep would have a day when they were cut off.
Ying Zheng wanted to persuade him again, but Qin Yun cut him off.""This matter is settled!"
Ying Zheng sighed in his heart, cupped his hands again and said,""In that case, this Zheng thanks Gentleman Qin!”
It seemed that Gentleman Qin loved money, but he also had a way to get it.
It would not be easy to gain Qin Junzi's approval just by relying on money.
Seeing Ying Zheng and Qin Yun reach an agreement, Meng Yi said with anticipation,""This paper is very different from ordinary paper.”
"Gentleman Qin, I believe that if you want to sell this paper to the public, you need to give it a different name.”
"Why don't we crown him with the name of Qin Junzi and call him Yunzhi?”
Ying Zheng gave Meng Yi a satisfied look and said,""I think this name is very good!"
"This paper is as white and smooth as a cloud. It's quite suitable to name it after a cloud!”
Good idea!
Using Qin Yun's name to name the piece of paper would more or less increase Qin Yun's affinity with the piece of paper. It would then be converted into recognition of Great Qin.
Although it might only be a trace.
However, it was better than nothing.
However, Qin Yun shook his head." I am not someone who is greedy for fame and fortune. To use my name as a crown, the karma is too heavy!”
"Since this paper was created in Great Qin, why don't we call it Qin Paper?”
Ying Zheng was overjoyed.”
With this Qin paper, I want to see who in the world dares to say that Great Qin is a country of tigers and wolves!
The Qi Kingdom's literary prosperity?
Then why was this paper called Qin paper and not Qi paper?
Meng Yi looked at Qin Yun with an odd gaze.
Was Gentleman Qin really that indifferent to fame and fortune?
Qin Zhi's 'Qin' was really Great Qin's 'Qin' and not Qin Yun's 'Qin'?
However, it was obvious that Meng Yi would not say this out loud to disturb the atmosphere. He immediately changed the topic and said,"I think that since it's already late summer, we should take advantage of the winter to finish building the workshop.”
Ying Zheng nodded decisively." That's right. I happen to have a few acres of land outside the city. I can use it to build a workshop."”
Ying Zheng and Meng Yi began to discuss the matter of manufacturing and selling paper in the study, as if they were really businessmen.
After dinner, the two of them were still chatting happily when Ying Bu strode in.
"Patriarch, the 500th Lord Dong Yi has come to pay his respects.”
Qin Yun's eyes lit up." Did you explain why you came?"”
"This person said he wanted to ask the Clan Leader to read his fortune." Ying Bu grinned.”
Qin Yun was delighted when he heard that.
After waiting for half a year, the fat sheep finally took the bait!
More importantly, Qin Yun knew this person!
Seeing this, Ying Zheng chuckled." Sir Qin, please get busy. I'll handle the matter of selling the paper."”
Qin Yun nodded." In that case, I'll have to trouble Brother Zheng."”
"Fan Kuai, follow Brother Zheng and help him build the workshop.”
Outside Qin Manor.
Dong Yi sat in the carriage and looked at Qin Manor with disdain and dissatisfaction.
As the descendant of Dong Hu, the Grand Historian of Jin, Dong Yi was also born in a prestigious family. He had become the Lord of 500 at a young age. Where could he not be praised by others?
And now, Qin Yun was actually making him wait outside?
"Divination?"
Dong Yi laughed softly,"I'm afraid that Zhang Han gave this person a generous gift and asked him to introduce Wang Jian."”
"If it wasn't for the sake of getting close to Marquis Wu Cheng, I would be ashamed to be associated with such a person!”
Just as Dong Yi was getting impatient and was about to force his way in, he saw a familiar figure walking out of the mansion.
"Your, Your Majesty!"
