Chapter 12
……

"Why didn't you tell me earlier when you did it?"

Looking at the five grades of paper in front of him, Ying Chen's injured heart barely gained some comfort.

Gongshu Qiu, who was torn into pieces by Ying Chen and whose arms were torn off, twitched wildly at the corners of his eyes, "Your Majesty, I think I asked my disciples to report this to you years ago, right?"

"Is there any?" Ying Chen asked doubtfully.

Jing Salamang on the side leaned into Ying Chen's ear and said, "I did report it, but you were preparing to go on an expedition and forgot to read it."

"Oh..." Ying Chen thought about it carefully, it seemed like this was the case?

"Hey, my husband is losing. You didn't say it earlier. Wouldn't it be better if you said it earlier? Look at yourself now. It's very expensive to arm your body."

"Also, little Frightened Salamander, you must remember to remind me. After all, you all know that I am very busy with many things to do every day..."

"..." The public loses his revenge.

I suddenly didn’t remember it at the time!In the end, you almost broke me in just a few breaths!

Still taking care of everything?You think I'm blind!
However, having just spent all of Ying Chen's money, Gong Shuqiu still felt a little guilty, so he stopped mentioning the horrific incident just now.

"The paper is out, what about the glass?" Ying Chen asked.

"Your Majesty, the temperature of that thing is difficult to control, and its shape and quality are still being tested. Although there are many finished products, the colorless glass you mentioned, as well as the flat glass, and the blowing method are still unclear. There are a lot of problems.”

A young disciple next to Gong Shuqiu said.

He is the project leader of glass research and development.

"Then don't worry, what about other things?" Ying Chen asked again.

"The Quyuan plow you mentioned has also been successfully improved and entered mass production years ago. It will be ready for trial around Xianyang this year."

"It's just..." The young disciple hesitated.

"What's wrong?" Ying Chen asked.

"The effect of the Quyuan Plow has not yet been officially demonstrated, so the mass production of this thing has been opposed by many people in the court. They think this thing is unnecessary." Jing Salaman leaned into Ying Chen's ear and said.

"It's just that the war was urgent during this period, so no one raised any objections."

"That's right." Ying Chen nodded.

The Quyuan plow has no practical application yet. We don’t know how much this thing can improve agricultural productivity. Therefore, it is normal not to support it.

"Then I'll make a batch first. I'll use it later. I'll also make a batch of paper and glass to make finished wine glasses." Ying Chen said.

"Um, Your Majesty, isn't this going to be a war?" Gong Shuqiu asked doubtfully.

He had just excitedly pulled Ying Chen to show off the Tiger tank because he hoped that thing would shine in the upcoming battle at Hangu Pass!Show off the strength of his domineering mechanism skills!

It is no exaggeration to say that one Tiger tank can defeat ten thousand troops!
If the placement position can be controlled in the army, the eight gear cutters located at the front, rear, left and right, once activated, this thing will be an irresistible meat grinder!
Even if it is pushed forward, the Tiger tank is an irresistible giant!
"Who told you there was going to be a war?" Ying Chen asked.

"Isn't this coalition's 80-strong army besieging Hangu Pass?" Gong Shuqiu asked doubtfully.

Could it be that he heard wrong?
"I can't fight." Ying Chen stood up with a few pieces of paper.

"They dare not fight."

The water from the great river came up from the sky, how could Lord Xinling dare to act rashly?
You can't bet that he won't dare, right?

It's not that he looks down on Lord Xinling, but who dares to bet on this kind of thing?
This thing is just like the nuclear bomb in his previous life. A non-nuclear country would not dare to bet on whether the other party dares to use it.

……

Xiangbangfu.

Ying Chen came to Lu Buwei with the paper.

"Let's see how much this thing can sell for?" Ying Chen said straight to the point. "This..." Lu Buwei carefully observed the paper in front of him. Ying Chen had told him about this thing a long time ago. Gongshujia was developing and producing it, but he didn't expect that it could actually be made?
"Priceless." Lu Buwei shook his head.

Even though he is the most successful businessman of this era, there is really no way to value this kind of thing.

Because the impact is too great!
This kind of paper is not only low-cost, but also easy to carry. It will change the flow of information in this era!He couldn't even imagine how high Ying Chen's reputation would be among all the schools of thought once this thing was released!
"Then what do you think will happen if I release the manufacturing process of this thing?" Ying Chen asked.

"Release the manufacturing process?" Lu Buwei was stunned. How could he make money if he released it?

"Of course they are not released for free." Ying Chen said.

"I plan to collect royalties."

"Patent fee?" Lu Buwei was confused. Why did Ying Chen have so many terms that he didn't understand?

"The patent fee means how much money he makes by relying on this technology, and how much share he has to give me." Ying Chen explained.

"And I collect it from the country, not from individuals."

Lu Buwei became even more confused. He even wondered if Ying Chen was sick?

"Luoyang Jun, what are you thinking about? Do you think they will give it to you?"

Still collecting money from the state?Isn't this just a disguised form of tribute?The six countries regarded Qin as a tiger and a wolf, how could they be willing to do such a thing?
"I think they will give it to me," Ying Chen said seriously.

"Why?" Lu Buwei was puzzled. The method of making this paper is not difficult. It can even be said to be very simple. People have already obtained this technology, so why are they still willing to pay?
"Qin has always been a tiger and a wolf among the six Shandong countries. To put it bluntly, they don't even regard Qin people as human beings." Ying Chen said.

But don’t think that tiger and wolf are some kind of complimentary words!This is not a compliment to the Qin people for their bravery, but a curse!
"But the people of Qin, whom they regarded as barbarians, came up with such an epoch-making thing, but they couldn't do anything and even robbed it. So, who are they?"

"Which of the hundreds of schools of thought is not an arrogant person who believes in his own loftiness? If they see their country doing such a shameful thing, will they scold them?"

"All the talented people in the world join the court for nothing more than fame and fortune. However, do the six countries that have done things by force and plunder still have fame? Do they still have the nerve to say that they are a country of etiquette?"

"If you care about honor and integrity, how can you sacrifice your life for an untrustworthy and rude king?"

"The Six Kingdoms of Shandong claim to govern the country with etiquette. If they did such a thing, would it be justified for Qin to attack them?"

"If a person has no faith, he will not be established, let alone a country?"

"..." Lu Buwei.

Why do I feel that you are connoting Qin?
"Um, Mr. Luoyang, have you forgotten that Zhang Yi completely destroyed Qin's reputation in the past?"

First, Zhang Yi deceived the King of Chu for six hundred miles, and then King Zhao deceived the King of Chu to Qin State. He could not even go home to see him until his death!
This is a good thing your grandfather Zhao Wang did!

In terms of shamelessness, Qin is second, but no one can be said to be first!

"So I plan to make up for it now." Ying Chen said helplessly.

"Who doesn't use some shady means when they get rich? Even the Six Kingdoms of Shandong, who doesn't have a dirty history?"

"Well...that's true." Lu Buwei agreed.

In fact, everyone is similar, except that Qin is more famous and has a worse influence.

"So whether they pay for it or not, it will be beneficial to Qin State." Ying Chen said.

"If they give it, then the money is for nothing. If they don't give it, we won't lose. Anyway, our reputation has improved, and Qin will look much better when it recruits talents in the future."

"And I don't think they will give much. Even if they give it, it will most likely be just a token reward. When the time comes, I will have room to operate."

"After all, the cost of this paper is so low, and the Qin State has voluntarily made the technology public. If the six countries still use this thing to squeeze their own people, it is somewhat unjustifiable, right?"

"..." Lu Buwei.

Every step you take is going to be a trap...
