"Paper making technique?" When Bai Qi heard the system's voice, he couldn't help but feel delighted. This was great.
He was currently worrying about his students 'books washi, and the system had sent him a pillow. It was really timely.
In this era, books were all made of bamboo slips, and the cost was very high. Ordinary people could not afford them at all. This was also the reason why ordinary people did not have books in their homes and could not afford to read.
This was also the reason why education was not universal and why there were no large academies or colleges. Basically, there were only some small family schools.
The school had just started and the students had just begun to learn how to read. It was barely acceptable for them to not have books. However, as the content of their studies increased, would they be able to do so without books?
The emergence of the Paper Making Technique had completely solved this problem.
It was precisely because of the emergence of the art of making paper that books were slowly popularized.
Bai Qi called Bai Zhong over immediately and gave him the information and principles of the paper making technique. He then asked Bai Zhong to recruit people to build two industrial workshops in a desolate place in the city.
At the same time, he had Bai Zhong bring the servants in the residence to try to produce paper.
The information the system gave him was very detailed. Every step was included. All he had to do was follow the steps and do it like a fool.
However, in order to protect the paper making technique, Baiqi did not dare to use outsiders and only used the servants in the residence.
The servants in this manor were all very reliable, because their contracts were all in Bai Qi's hands. In other words, their lives were all in Bai Qi's hands.
At the same time, Baiqi also wrote down a copy of the principle behind the movable type engraving printing technique and gave it to the craftsmen in the manor for them to study.
Actually, the principle of movable type engraving printing was very simple. It was similar to the principle of seals used in this era, except that the words were smaller and more numerous. This was purely a craft.
Although the principle of movable type engraving printing was simple, it played a vital role in mass printing books.
After Baiqi finished explaining these two matters, he began to personally teach the 5,000 students of the Wargod Institution.
The teaching method of these 5,000 students was different from that of the Hundred Schools of Philosophers. The 5,000 students of the Wargod Institution were not divided into classes and were all taught in the same class.
Every day, there would be a literacy class where the old teachers of the academy would teach them some basic words. At the very least, they could not be illiterate.
The rest of the time was spent on basic military training and cultivating the Mortal Body Refining Technique that Baiqi had taught them.
When he taught the mortal body refinement technique, Baiqi made all the students of the Wargod Institution sign a military confidentiality agreement. They were not allowed to reveal anything about the Wargod Institution to anyone, especially this cultivation technique. They were not allowed to tell anyone, including their families.
If they violated the rules, they would be expelled from the academy with their cultivation method abolished. If they violated the rules, they would be executed.
The students of the Wargod Institution finally had the chance to learn from the wargod Bai Qi. Naturally, they cherished this opportunity. Furthermore, Bai Qi was their idol, so they naturally listened to him.
Moreover, their families had repeatedly instructed them to listen to Wu Anjun in the academy.
Therefore, they naturally strictly adhered to the confidentiality agreement and worked hard to cultivate every day.
This was because Wu Anjun had told them that if they sweated more now, they would bleed less on the battlefield in the future.
The more effort he put in now, the more hope he had of surviving on the battlefield in the future.
Baiqi had been on the battlefield for more than 30 years, and he knew how cruel it was because he had seen far too many deaths.
He did not wish for the students he had personally taught to die on the battlefield one by one. As such, Bai Qi was extremely strict with his students.
However, even though these students were still young, they were all very strong. Under Bai Qi's high-intensity training, they were able to endure it.
Although it was tough, when they saw their idol, Wu Anjun, standing in front of them, they immediately became spirited. Their eyes were filled with fervent worship as they looked at Bai Qi.
That was their spiritual pillar and belief!
They could not disappoint their idol!
Baiqi looked at the strong and stubborn children in front of him, and his heart was filled with emotions. These children would become the pillars of the Qin Country's army, and the future of the Qin Country.
In the following days, Baiqi basically stayed in the academy with the students of the Wargod Institution.
"Father, it's done, it's done!" On this day, Bai Qi was teaching the students in the academy the basics of daily cultivation. Bai Zhong excitedly rushed to Bai Qi's side, holding a thin piece of white paper in his hand as he excitedly said.
"That's great!" Bai Qi took the piece of paper from Bai Zhong's hands and couldn't help but say excitedly.
He knew the importance of this piece of paper.
"Didn't I ask you to build two industrial workshops? How's the construction going?" Baiqi continued.
"It's already built." Bai Zhong nodded.
"Alright, one of the workshops will be used to produce this kind of white paper, and the other workshop will be used to print books.”Baiqi continued.
"Take note that the production technology of this white paper must be kept a secret. Transfer a portion of the servants from the residence to the paper mill to make paper.”
"As for the book printing workshop, we can recruit workers from Duyi to start production.”Baiqi continued.
The movable type engraving printing technique had been developed two days ago. They were just waiting for the white paper to be printed.
"I know!" Bai Zhong nodded and spoke with a solemn expression.
He naturally knew the importance of this piece of white paper. This was definitely a major event that could affect the entire State of Qin, no, the entire world.
Bai Qi gave a few more instructions before Bai Zhong left and got busy again.
Not long after Bai Zhong left, someone from the manor came down to report that King Qin Zhaoxiang had personally come to the manor.
After Baiqi heard this, he was slightly stunned. Although he had thought that King Zhaoxiang would come personally one day, he did not expect it to come so soon.
He just didn't know why Qin Zhaoxiang King had come to find him this time.
