    After using the toilet, Jing Hedi put the unused roll paper back into the basket next to the toilet.

    Looking at the hemp white paper, Emperor Jinghe sighed.

    After walking out and taking a towel from Zhao Shou, Emperor Jinghe asked smoothly: "Zhao Shou, have you used the toilet paper Mingqi sent you?"

    Zhao Shou bowed and replied, "Your Majesty, this old slave is favored. The Queen Mother gave me two volumes."

    "how do you feel?"

    "I'm using it very well. It's much softer than the previous paper, and it can also use the toilet. I'm really lucky. I never dreamed of it before!"

    Zhao Shou looked satisfied.

    Eunuchs are incomplete men. No matter how kind they are, they will have some dark thoughts and violent thoughts.

    Zhao Shou occasionally vents to himself when no one is around.

    But he is an honest person after all, and he will not show off himself by being domineering like other eunuchs.

    Now Liu Mingqi has made a lot of good things for the palace. As the chief eunuch, Zhao Shou enjoys the blessings with the emperor.

    For example, if he has bad teeth and cannot eat anything with bones, and meat is easy to fill his teeth, cake is very suitable for him.

    The cake is soft, sweet and fragrant, and he eats one every two days.

    There is also roast duck. Because the bones are removed, the duck skin is divided into one-third lean and fat. It is wrapped in dough and eaten. It is not difficult at all. He can eat several more pieces every time.

    This is nothing, the toilet is really an artifact.

    They eunuchs have well-known flaws, and going to the toilet on weekdays is definitely a pain.

    It¡¯s better now. Prince Yu built a toilet and came out. The emperor took pity on these rootless people. The big eunuchs all have their own toilets, and the little eunuchs can also have public toilets. This solves their great trouble.

    For this reason, many eunuchs thought of Prince Yu in their hearts and felt that he was simply a living Bodhisattva.

    Zhao Shou thought the same way, and his inherent impression of Prince Yu's previous "frivolous", "impetuous", "rude"etc. had changed a lot.

    A few days ago, Crown Prince Yu sent another truckload of rolling papers, which was said to be for toilet use.

    Of course, it is nominally for the Queen Mother and Princess Changle. In fact, the Queen Mother will not only use it for herself. The emperor will get a large part of it.

    The remaining portion was given to Zhao Shou and other eunuchs by the Queen Mother.

    People in the palace live a relatively particular life. Eunuchs are no longer complete. They usually don't treat themselves badly in life.

    Therefore, they mostly use paper when going to the toilet, even those with the lowest status.

    ¡°It¡¯s just that these papers are not very good.

    If it is too thin and soft, it will break as soon as you wipe it.

    If it is too hard, it will be uncomfortable to wipe.

    In order to make themselves more comfortable, the eunuchs came up with many ways, but they were not of much use, they just made them less awkward.

    As a result, this problem was changed by the two rolls of toilet paper that Zhao Shou got.

    The name given by Prince Yu is simple and clear: toilet paper, toilet paper, is used in the toilet.

    Zhao Shou fell in love with this toilet paper after using it once.

    It is not only soft, but also soft and can be wiped clean without getting your hands dirty.

    With toilet paper and a toilet, going to the toilet has now become a pleasure.

    It¡¯s a bit embarrassing to say it, but Zhao Shou actually had some toilet paper in his arms.

    It is also very comfortable to use toilet paper to wipe your mouth after eating, and it will not be so rough that it hurts your mouth.

    ¡­¡­

    Emperor Jinghe was not surprised at all that Zhao Shou had such feelings.

    Because he thinks so too.

    Before Liu Mingqi brought the toilet paper, he had no idea that specialized toilet paper could be so good and practical.

    However, he still sighed and said: "The ancients said that being extravagant and lustful will inevitably bring about a series of absurdities. Now my life is getting better and better, but I think that the victims can only eat rice porridge mixed with bran.  , I feel really uncomfortable."

    "Your Majesty, why do you call this extravagant and lustful?" Zhao Shou immediately knelt down, "Even now, you only eat two meals a day, one of which is also bran porridge. Counting forward 1,000 years, you will all  There is no emperor who cares about the people as much as you do!"

    "I didn't do a good enough job, otherwise there wouldn't be so many victims." Emperor Jinghe shook his head.

    "It's God's fault for the victims."???  "

    "The scale has expanded. How many people can you hire at most?" The emperor became a little interested.

    "It's possible for 10,000 people." Liu Mingqi said a big number.

    Emperor Jinghe asked seriously: "Are you serious?"

    "Consumables like toilet paper are used very quickly. As long as they are sold in the Gyeonggi region and Jiangnan area, they can support the scale of 10,000 people." Liu Mingqi said, "If you want to sell to the grassland, sell to  There are even more princes and nobles in small overseas countries.¡±

    Ten thousand people means ten thousand households, totaling about fifty thousand people.

    ¡° A single papermaking workshop can take care of the livelihood of 50,000 people. This is an amazing achievement.

    If there are a few more people, all the work of the refugees fleeing famine will be solved this time, and there will be no need for them to do water conservancy repairs.

    "The key to water conservancy repairs is the imperial court's funding. Five million taels of silver is not enough. If Miao Yan hadn't found a large sum of money recently, I'm afraid it would have taken ten million taels to stop it.

    ??And Liu Mingqi¡¯s workshop is private, and there is no need for the court to pay to support these people. Isn¡¯t this better?

    After making money, they can buy things and promote the money of other people to make money. Isn't it better to live?

    "Then start your papermaking workshop quickly Well, if there is not enough space in the city, you can go outside the city and build it in a place with many trees." The emperor made a decision immediately, "I want to see it in the shortest possible time.  Can you expand the scale?"

    "I'm afraid this is a bit difficult." Liu Mingqi spread his hands, "Safety issues and the confidentiality of my formula are not easy to solve."

    "Don't worry, I'll ask Gao Jing to cooperate and provide you with some conveniences." At this point, Emperor Jinghe said again, "Well, let me tell Miao Yan that you can rest assured that Miao Yan is here to do this, right?  "

    "good!"

    Liu Mingqi nodded with satisfaction.

    What is the concept of Xiuyiwei and Miao Yan joining forces?

    You will know just by looking at the expressions of constipation on the faces of the big businessmen and wealthy people in the capital recently.

    I was fined more than three million taels of silver!

    Even though these people have great careers, they feel so distressed that they almost suffocate.

    But they didn¡¯t dare not give it. The emperor might not kill them, but Miao Heizi dared to do something dirty.

    From the perspective of confidentiality, the papermaking process is already developed enough, and the basic process does not need to be kept secret.

    Liu Mingqi can keep the secret as long as he ensures the ratio of long and short fibers, and then the manufacturing and adding ratio of mineral fibers.

    Others can¡¯t learn it even if they want to.

    This is a thousand-year gap between physics and chemistry in papermaking technology!

    Note: The system of large factories and workshops has already begun in the Song Dynasty. Workshops and factories employing thousands of people can be found everywhere.  For example, Fanlou, the largest hotel in Bianliang, can accommodate more than 1,000 people dining at the same time. You can imagine how big it is and how many employees it requires.

    It¡¯s just that the capital commercialization of the Song Dynasty was disrupted by the Mongolian cavalry, interrupting the historical process.

    "This was actually the case in the late Ming Dynasty. The handicraft industry and commerce in Jiangnan were extremely developed. Silk factories, porcelain factories, etc., had thousands of people.  But in the end, it was defeated by the Little Ice Age and disrupted by the Qing Dynasty.

    "For hundreds of years, it seems that there is a force in the dark that prevents us from moving closer to modern industrialization.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
