Xu Yan ignored Liu Che's shock and continued,""Didn't Your Majesty ask me which school of thought can govern the country?”
"My answer is physics!"
"I currently have seven chapters on 'Politics',' Law','Technology',' Eduation','Ediction',' Military 'and' Culture'. They have more than 1.6 million words and can strengthen the country, the army, the people, and the world, creating the foundation of the Great Han Dynasty.”
With his outstanding memory, Xu Yan compiled all the national policies he knew from his previous life into a book.
The Study of Matter!
These seven essays on the study of physics were Xu Yan's greatest achievement in the ten years after he transmigrated.
At the same time, it was also his greatest trump card to change history.
When Liu Che heard this, he was completely shocked.
Even Dongfang Shuo, who was in charge of recording, was dumbfounded. His eyes widened as he looked at Xu Yan in disbelief.
Xu Yan looked at the extremely shocked Liu Che and did not continue to speak. Instead, he took out a paper book that was about four to five centimeters thick from his sleeve and said,"This book is called 'Investigative Science, Political Chapter'. It has 350,000 words. If Your Majesty is free, you might as well read it.
Perhaps after His Majesty finished reading this book, he would not have to worry about which school to choose to govern the country.”
As a transmigrator, he definitely wouldn't let go of Paper Making.
Although Xu Yan did not know the specific method and steps of the paper making technique, this did not prevent him from creating the paper making technique.
In fact, the moment he transmigrated, he had already ordered people to start making paper according to the principles of the paper-making technique.
He spent more than a year, invested hundreds of gold, and experienced hundreds of failures before he completely mastered the paper making technique.
However, due to the huge benefits and influence of the paper-making technique, Xu Yan did not mass-produce paper for sale after mastering the paper-making technique.
There was no other reason.
Because with the strength of the Xu family of Yan, they could not protect the benefits of the paper-making technique at all. They might even suffer the disaster of extinction because of this matter.
Xu Yan wasn't stupid. He had heard of the saying " a child carrying gold in the market ".
Therefore, in the past few years, he would rather use paper as toilet paper than sell a single piece of paper to the outside world and tell anyone about the art of making paper.
Now, in front of Liu Che, he didn't have to hide it anymore. He directly presented the bound paper," Study of Things, Political Chapter," as his own stepping stone.
He didn't believe that the magic of paper making and the content of the " Investigative Physics: Political Chapter " couldn't suppress a sixteen-year-old youth.
Even if this youth was the future Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
Xu Yan's actions made Liu Che, this young emperor, finally recover from his shock.
However, when he saw the strange item in Xu Yan's hand, he could not help but ask,"Is that a book in Xu shi's hands? 'Investigative Physics: Political Chapter', 350,000 words. Was Master Xu sure he was right?”
It wasn't that Liu Che didn't believe Xu Yan, but he found it hard to believe that the item in Xu Yan's hand was a book, and it was a book with 350,000 words.
It wasn't that paper didn't exist in this era.
However, the paper of this era was very crude. It was made of hemp fiber and hemp fabric. Not only were there many fibers inside, but the surface was also uneven. It could not be used for writing at all. It was only used as packaging.
It wasn't until 240 years later, which was 105 AD, that Cai Lun combined his previous paper-making experience and continuously improved the paper-making technique, creating paper that could be used for writing.
Of course, since Xu Yan had already transmigrated here, Cai Lun had nothing to do with paper making.
He could understand Liu Che's reaction and explained with a smile,"" Of course not. The book in my hand is a creation of science and technology in the study of physics. I named it paper. It's as white as snow and as thin as a cicada's wing. It can be used to replace bamboo slips to write. It's usually one inch thick and three to five layers of paper can write tens of thousands of words. It's more than a hundred times more convenient than bamboo slips.”
"If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, you can take a look at it yourself. It's obvious whether it's true or not.”
Xu Yan said slowly, revealing the existence of the paper.
"Oh, really? Quickly show it to Zhen.”
Hearing the magic of the paper, the young Tian Zi couldn't help but stand up from behind the table. He didn't care about etiquette and walked to Xu Yan in two or three steps. He took the book in Xu Yan's hand.
He wanted to see if the paper Xu Yan mentioned was really that magical.
He took the book.
Liu Che instantly discovered the magic of paper.
This was a material he had never seen before. It was like a complete piece of silk, and it was very soft and comfortable to touch.
In the middle of the cover of the book, there were six big words written on it: "Internal politics is about how to govern the country, and external politics is about how to carry out activities to protect and expand the interests of the country.”
The brush moved like dragons and snakes, and the handwriting was very beautiful.
More importantly, these words were written on this material and were very easy to read.
Phew...
Liu Che was shocked by the paper book in his hand, and his eyes widened.
He gently flipped open the cover of the book and saw that the second page was densely packed with at least hundreds of words. He said excitedly,"Is this paper? It was actually so thin and flat?”
The paper book in his hand made Liu Che so shocked that he was speechless.
This was the first time he had seen such a thing as paper, and he was extremely excited.
Even though he was still young.
However, Liu Che could still clearly understand the meaning behind the appearance of the " paper ".
It meant that from now on, people would no longer need to use heavy and clumsy bamboo slips to write.
It meant that from ancient times to the present, words and knowledge would take another big step forward in his era.
"A divine item!"
Liu Che caressed the paper book in his hand, unable to calm down and read the contents.
When Xu Yan saw this, he took out a few more pages from his sleeve and continued,"There are a few more pages here. One of them contains the detailed method of making paper. The other pages are blank paper. Your Majesty can use them to write.”
Since he had already taken out the paper book.
In that case, the paper-making technique naturally could not be concealed, nor could it be preserved.
Therefore, Xu Yan generously offered the paper making technique to increase his weight in Liu Che's heart.
"Who invented this? How much was the cost? Can it be mass produced?"
When Liu Che heard Xu Yan offer the paper making technique, he hurriedly placed the book in his hand on the table and took the paper making technique and a few blank pages. He asked Xu Yan excitedly.
Hearing this, Xu Yan replied seriously,""Your Majesty, this paper-making technique is based on my knowledge of things. I ordered the craftsmen in the residence to improve the hemp clothes and make them. The cost is low, even lower than bamboo slips.”
The hemp cloth was the earliest paper used in the Western Han Dynasty. Because it was made of hemp fiber and hemp fabric, it was too rough to be used for writing. It could only be used to wrap objects, so it was called hemp cloth.
As for the paper making technique?
Xu Yan did not hesitate to take it for himself and attributed it to the study of physics.
The last problem was the cost of paper and whether it could be popularized on a large scale.
This was not a problem.
The cost of paper was ten times cheaper than bamboo slips. There was no need for laborious cutting, piercing, tying with hemp rope, etc. It saved time, effort, and money. It could be mass produced.
If he had the help of printing.
If the Great Han Dynasty wanted to achieve the prosperity of the literary path, it would definitely be just around the corner.
"What is it? It's…even cheaper than bamboo slips!"
Liu Che was stunned by this sentence.
This thing called paper was so flat and thin.
He had thought that it was more valuable than silk, but who would have thought that it would be cheaper than the cumbersome bamboo slips?
Liu Che was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
The way he looked at Xu Yan had completely changed.
What was a great talent of the country?
This was it!
No, the Xu Yan in front of him could no longer be described as a country's great talent, but a true national scholar!
