Chapter 43

~4 min read 635 words

Ying Ying Zi Ye ignored the complaints of the crowd.

This group of people is the richest, how could they have no money.

They just wouldn't scatter the eagle until they saw the rabbit.

At the same time, they were a bit wary that he was hiding his talent.

"Look at what this is?"

He took a stack of Xuan paper from his bosom.

Probably a few dozen sheets.

This was the Xuan paper sample rewarded by the National Fortune Manifestation System.

This was something even better than silk.

It was something this dynasty didn't have.

"This is called Xuan paper, invented by this prince, and it will be able to replace bamboo slips in the future."

"Think about it, if anyone masters the technology to manufacture this Xuan paper, wouldn't they be able to have a rolling source of wealth?"

"This prince will use this technology to manufacture Xuan paper to bet against you."

"If you win, this prince will hand over the technology to manufacture Xuan paper!"

"And I will also leave Xianyang City; adding these two things together, you won't lose out."

"But if you lose, then it won't be three million coins, but six million coins, do you dare?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye scanned Chunyu Yue and Feng Quji.

As for the other officials, he skipped them directly.

The officials, seeing the things in Ying Ying Zi Ye's hands, all walked up curiously.

Everyone took a sheet and looked at it.

They had never seen or heard of this thing called Xuan paper.

But when they held the Xuan paper in their hands, they felt its extraordinary nature.

Delicate to the touch, thin as a sheet, and incomparably light.

When Ying Ying Zi Ye reminded them that this was for writing and could replace bamboo slips.

The ministers were all moved.

If they could master the manufacturing technology, the benefits would be too great!

They all wanted a share of the pie; who would complain about having too much money?

But such magical Xuan paper, the cost should be very expensive, many people couldn't afford it, right?

At this time—

Feng Quji asked cautiously: "May I ask the Ninth Prince, what is the cost of this Xuan paper?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye said lightly: "The cost is almost nothing, one coin can make dozens of sheets."

Boom~~~!

The ministers in the court were boiling.

They didn't expect that this thin sheet of Xuan paper would be so cheap to manufacture.

Bamboo slips are expensive to manufacture, and carving books is also very complicated.

But this Xuan paper is different; the cost is low, and the value is too high.

If they master this technology, it would really be like what the Ninth Prince said, a rolling source of wealth!

They could all imagine the scene of becoming super rich.

The ministers' eyes were red, and the entire court was in chaos.

"Heavens! With the birth of this Xuan paper, there will be no use for bamboo slips!"

"Let alone bamboo slips, even silk will be useless!"

"If this old man can see such a divine object in his lifetime, it would be worth it even if I died immediately!"

"This object will benefit Great Qin! Benefit scholars! Benefit the people!"

"Bet, must bet, this old man also wants a share of the pie!"

But soon, those ministers stopped talking.

Feng Quji and Chunyu Yue kicked out all the officials who wanted a share of the pie.

The benefits were too great, and the two families wanted to eat alone.

But the amount involved was too large, so the two sides decided to join forces and fight!

Anyway, they wouldn't lose, so what's there to be afraid of.

Even if they lost later, they could just ask those Rujia scholars for money.
