The beautiful pope snorted: Go on, you'd better get down to business as soon as possible.Papermaking is at least a dozen things that can be invented every year, but the fundamental process remains the same, just nitrate the leather, make the leather soft and smooth, and prevent moth-eaters.So the invention of papermaking is not something to make a fuss about.But her clerk is not a rookie who has just taken office, and he will be so excited that it must be the right thing to disturb his office.No, His Majesty the Pope, only paper is made!
Paper!
The clerk maintained the posture of holding the box, craned his neck and shouted, ah!
I'm getting more and more stupid, please come and admire this miracle of wisdom for yourself!
The clerk finally put the box down, opened it, and took the thread-bound book that Leon had given to Maurifio: Can you believe it?
It's a book with fourteen pages, fourteen pages!
It's light and thin, and there's a charming fragrance, not the kind of acquired creation, you smell it, how fresh and natural.This is the feel of using cloth not cloth, curious.The Pope touched the cover of the book twice, and the smooth feeling made her can't help but rub her cheek up twice.It's really very, very bright, and at such a close distance, you can only smell a soothing aroma of plants and trees, without any smell.She wouldn't smell leather books like that, it would make her very unhappy.Open the page, the font inside is very small and not too small, in fact, this size looks just right for the eye, but there are only a few kinds of parchment in the parchment that are not actually parchment to write words of this size, after all, most leather is textured no matter how smooth it is, and the words will be smudged if they are too small.This font is really too small compared to the parchment font.Paper made from plants?
The newly discovered skin of a certain plant?
Leaf?
Or is it an improved loom spinning?
The Pope muttered to himself, looking eagerly at the Chinese characters in the book.As the archbishop of the god of nature, she was also an accomplished alchemist, inventing and improving countless times during her lifetime, and was keen to improve parchment in the past.A few minutes ago, she thought that at her current height, her behavior in the past was just a child's bloody play.Now the facts tell her that it is not that she was too naïve in the past, but that she is not capable enough to see her own innocence.It's just some plant fiber?
Although there were fourteen pages, many of them were drawings, and it didn't take much time for the Pope to read the booklet, she fumbled around the paper, and she didn't even need deeper changes, no magic or vindictive infusion, it was as simple as that.Who is it?
Who did the research right, you just said that it was Hope Village.Is there such a master of gods in that place?
Who is it?!
The Pope got up from behind his desk excitedly, even indifferent to accidentally knocking over the scroll mountain (most parchment documents are rolled into a roll).She was dressed in a trouser suit that resembled a military dress, and her hair was supposed to be coiled, but now all that was left was a mess, and she was so excited that she danced a little: move the master out of the backwoods at once!
I'm going to build him a high-level alchemy laboratory!
Give him the best!
Let him be Leon.The Pope froze, and she looked at the clerk suspiciously: Leon is that Leon?
Although her refusal was evident in the eyes of the Pope, the clerk was an honest man: yes, that Lord Leon.The Pope licked her lips, she propped her hands on the table, her whole body tilted, and spoke to her subordinates in a posture that was very inconsistent with the norms of today's female etiquette: Wait, give me some time, let me understand.First of all, I didn't go into a coma for ten or eight years because of the transition, right?
Yes and no, today is March 17, 1675.That Lord Leon is ten years old?
No, nine years old.Well.The Pope nodded, not yet in the double digits.She took a deep breath, so a little kid actually completely subverted the papermaking technique that has been used for five epochs until now?
No, the Lord said, it was not he who learned it, but that he saw another world in his sleep, and that the people of that world used this paper-making technique.This sounds much more logical.The Pope's face was expressionless, and she pondered for a while, dear Soyt, you say, could it be that this Lord Leon discovered a reclusive excellent alchemist and devoured him, and then no, no, no, there is no need.Yes, according to our information, this Lord Leon, though young and powerful, is very intelligent and wise, and not a jealous person.If this alchemist is discovered, there is no need to do such a stupid thing as devouring.And the Pope again observed this new paper, which was already a mature technology, not something that could be studied in a few months or years, but a technology that should be refined little by little over a long period of time.His dreams are the most plausible explanation.Is it the spirit world?
The clerk asked with a little awe.No.The Pope subconsciously denied it, but then shook his head, it may be related to the spiritual world, but it is not the spiritual world you think, it should have nothing to do with the gods.There is a wide area in the spirit world, and it is possible that Lord Leon, a very magical child, has inadvertently established a connection with the spirit world and glimpsed the scenery of other worlds.Then, raise the priority of Hope Village by one level, and try to satisfy this kid whatever he wants.The Pope once again fondly stroked the smooth cover of a handful of paper books, worth enough for us to pay for him.They are asking when churches will start selling paper, can they postpone paper production by a year?
Just for your own use.The Pope laughed: they were too cautious, and they thought of me too carefully.Reply to them, you can make paper immediately, whether you sell it or use it for your own use.How big is their village?
How much paper can be made?
It's just that it will take a few years to spread the news that they can make paper, right?
But just in case, send them a team of five hundred cyclic knights and give it to Maurifio.Yes, His Majesty.By the way, the pope of the local church tapped his thighs rhythmically with his fingers, and she thought for a moment that she should also go up a step and give them a horn of the south wind.And the other little guy, the little boy who was very close to Leon and was exterminated, ask him if he wants to return to the family?
Yes, Your Majesty.If it's just a message, or a small item, it's still very fast.On March 20th, the horn of the south wind had reached Hope Village.Hogan and Meng Bei jumped up happily, the horn of the south wind belongs to the ordinary non-unique god, when not in use, the horn will blow warm wind from time to time, once the blowing south wind is used, the wind and time depend on the user's ability, the biggest wind is to make it difficult for an ordinary adult male to walk, and the child with an umbrella is in danger of being blown up, the longest time is forever, as long as the supply can keep up, the wind will not stop.When used correctly, this horn can blow away rain clouds at bad times, gather clouds in times of drought, help pollinate plants, or drive away large swarms, and can also be used as a motivation to blow sails.However, the last one is rarely used, after all, no matter how ordinary it is, it is also a divine body, and the power and dedication required to activate the horn of the south wind is also huge, and there are many alternative ways to make the fleet move forward, so there is no need to waste it so much.There is also a huge difference between a church and a church with a divine body, and the most direct thing is that a church without a divine body will not appear on the map at all, so a church with a divine body can be said to be a real church.Mombe was a little disappointed at the same time, because the chief priest of this church was Hogan, and he was only seconded.But Meng Bei adjusted quickly, although it was not his, but the greater the results of the hope village, the more he would get when he returned to the archbishop.He has a share of the paper-making method that was sent to him now, even if he didn't do anything in this matter.Although the church says that we can sell paper directly, by March of next year, all paper will be made for our own use.Leon's voice interrupted Mombe's thoughts, and he hurriedly shook his head along with the others.The horn was delivered by a cyclic knight from the Cathedral of Gretel, who was as tall as a giant compared to the half-elf appearance of Morifio, at least two and a half meters tall, and when Leon stood in front of him, he was worried that this guy would not step on him because he couldn't see him.The small box containing the horn was placed in the palm of his hand, like a toy candy box.Leon took the box, and when he heard it, the knight stood quietly, without the slightest change in his expression or in his eyes, and it was completely a sculpture.This was what he had been in the harbor a few minutes ago when he handed over the box, and in fact, it was in the harbor now, and in the next few minutes, when he published the decree of His Holiness the Pope.The port is also a little busier now, with more and more people coming and going, and many people are watching the excitement all around.Although the Imperial Decree does not say why Hope Village was awarded, it is clear that it is a place where the gods of nature take special care of it.Seeing him like this, Leon felt as if he had no intention of entering the village at all, so he could only explain his words in this way.Sure enough, the knight saw him close his mouth, and his eyes scanned around the main manager of Hope Village, and when he found that no one was talking, he turned around and got on the boat.His feet were not on the ground for more than fifteen minutes.This kind of person is the hardest to deal with.Morifio crossed his arms and muttered as he looked at the big ship with the emblem of the god of nature in the distance.Hogan immediately dismantled his stage: You are on a mission, too.Well?
Have you seen Maurifio on a mission?
Leon was curious, he thought he had brought the two men together to make them acquainted.Yes!
Hogan realized that he had slipped his mouth and was a little embarrassed, but Maurifio looked at him with a smile: "Tell me, I really don't know what I was like when I was on a mission.Well, when I went to the cathedral with my teacher to report on my work, I happened to meet the knight of Morifio who also came to the cathedral, but I didn't know you at that time, but I just watched you lead the team away with a blank face, which was terrible.It's scary.Hey?
Maurifio touched his face, with my look, no matter what kind of expression it is, it doesn't make people feel terrible, right?
Everyone: I really didn't expect that their reliable knight captain would have such a narcissistic side.Mombe, can we still pull in people?
After the joke ended, everyone began to discuss business.Do you want to get started with papermaking?
Mombe asked Leon.Yes.Alas, Meng Bei is a little worried, if you make paper, you must use the most appropriate manpower, but at this stage, such people have their own jobs.If we pull them out, most of our work will be stopped.But I also know that it is extremely important to start making paper for the construction of the village, but will you be able to wait another half or three months?
I don't need absolutely reliable people, I've broken down papermaking into several processes, and each person is responsible for one of them, so different people don't communicate with each other, so you don't have to worry about problems.And I don't want many people, just give me twenty people.All right.Then at the beginning of next month, I will hand you over the people.Good.Scattered on the port, except for Leon and Eldy, the two little beans, everyone else hurried to do their own thing.Eldi is holding the ball, the ball is no longer shedding hair recently, the white hair is getting longer and longer, the black hair is not very long, it looks like it not only makes it fat, but also makes its zebra stripes less obvious, but like a cow cat with white spots.Ignoring the pattern, the feel of the egg is indeed getting better and better, and Eldi holds it and opens it casually: Meng Bei manages the finances and personnel deployment at the same time, but he is still too busy, so leave the personnel deployment to me.Aren't you busy managing the law and the work plan?
Leon immediately retorted, he is a person who does things with a pat on the head, although he can toss a little thing every time, but how to scale this thing specifically, that is Eldy's business, you are almost out of time for dessert.Eldi looked at Leon: "Mombey's mind is not ours, it doesn't matter if he is greedy at this stage, but when our territory gets bigger and bigger, things will become more and more troublesome.Uh, Leon thought for a while, he delayed not giving me manpower this time, because someone in the Duchy of Gretel had already started making paper?
Yes.I said that I don't know how to sell paper, if I want to make money by selling paper, will I still hand in the process?
Eldy let go, and Dandan jumped directly on his shoulder with great agility, instead of being thrown to the ground, and touched Leon's head with his free hand: people and people think differently.I was stupid.Leon raised his hands and admitted his mistake.It's okay, I'm smart.Leon: So I'm really stupid.But being vaguely said stupid by Eldi, Leon was not angry, but a little happy, probably this is family, right?
The five hundred knights sent by the Holy See had only arrived in May, and they had not come from Ferruga, the holy city of the god of nature, but had retreated from the front line of gods and demons, and many of them were still wounded.The local knights who went to the port, as soon as they saw the expressions of these knights getting off the ship, they gave birth to a kind of comrade-in-arms closeness Just over a year ago, as survivors of Dyriel City, the expressions on their faces were also like this, which is the expression of veterans who have experienced hell.Five hundred knights came here, entered the barracks prepared for them, slept without food, and the next morning heard the horn to get up, and they followed the instinct formed by years of training.The training ground here is also suitable for them, after all, it was designed by Morifio.When it was time to eat, the local knights stepped forward and led them to the cafeteria.The food in the canteen today is pies, lamb stuffing.The aroma of the pie spread far away, so that the villagers passing by couldn't help but swallow their saliva, but these veterans didn't feel anything when they ate it, their eyes were numb, and their expressions were even more numb.After eating, five hundred knights and twenty or so people were in groups, and they formed a circle and played games.No one objected, no one was curious, and everyone honestly followed their team in a circle with a gloomy face.Then they began to complain, first of the local knights, of what had happened in the city of Dyril and on the way of escape, and of the countless deaths.As he spoke, the person at the beginning was already crying.There was a beginning, and someone continued, and the slow crying filled the entire training ground, but it also made it finally a little lively.Leon, it's better to do it in your way.Maurifio let out a sigh of relief, if he had known this method in the early years, many people would have survived.Morifio had only come down from the front line of gods and demons a few years earlier than these people, and, presumably, had been deliberately picked, nearly a quarter of the people here were known to Morifio.Last night, while everyone was asleep, Morifio secretly called some people up, talked to them, and let them vent, and today these people were also scattered into different teams to cooperate with the local knights.Leon:???
Forget it, what they think is good is good.Eldy petting the cat: Did anyone die from excessive grief?
