Chapter 313 Poor and strange beast cubs!
Chapter 313 Qiongqi ferocious beast cub!
These papers that are popular all over Chu capital actually come from Xiguo?
The kings of various countries were stunned at first, but then they thought that King Xi was both high-quality well salt and iron smelting, and everyone was relieved. Xi always made some things and was used to it when they could make paper.
As the organizer of the king's banquet, the King of Chu also had a very bright face when he could appear as a treasure like paper at this banquet. Now he heard that the paper came from Xiguo again, so he asked Yao Yun:
"King Xi, do this paper really come from Xiguo? Why didn't the paper be sold after a few days? Is it difficult to make paper? There are not many in your country?"
After the King of Chu asked, the kings and guests also looked at Yao Yun, and they were also curious in their eyes. Yes, the paper is sold well, why not? Is it because the paper is not easy to make and the output is insufficient?
Yao Yun smiled: "Hahaha, this time I was suddenly invited by the monarchs to attend the monarch banquet. I was indeed not prepared enough and the number of papers was not large. But you don't have to worry. If you have any needs, Xiguo can provide it continuously, as much as you want!"
Everyone was slightly shocked when they heard this and kept providing it. Doesn’t this mean that Xiguo’s papermaking technology is very mature and can supply large quantities of paper. In this way, the birth of paper is likely to replace silk books and bamboo slips.
"As for why I stopped selling paper after selling it for a few days, hey, there is no way, Chudu's prices are too high, so it's hard to live in."
“Hahahaha~”
Everyone smiled kindly. Chu Du’s population soared and the food prices continued to soar. It was no secret that he heard the young King Xi’s jokes, and many kings of the Gu Kingdom empathized with it. They were carrying a large number of followers, and they could not stand it in their pockets.
"King Xi, look at what you said. Apart from the several marquis countries, who is the rich country of Bo, Xi's country is in wealthy, holding a salt well, fertile land, fertile land, hundreds of refining magic weapons, and excellent equipment. Now there are paper in hand. Xi's country has several gold mountains, and we are extremely envious."
"That's right, Gu has heard that King Xi brought three thousand elite troops to the banquet this time, and his travel is so grand that we are beyond the reach of the world!"
Many kings of small countries were possessed by the clan and turned on the 360-degree dog licking mode, constantly saying good things about Xiguo, and their words were full of envy.
In fact, what they said was the truth. Although Xiguo is also a small viscount country with only two cities, the foundation and future potential of Xiguo are not comparable to those of them, such as the monarchs of small countries.
Maybe in a few years, King Xi will be named Earl and Marquis by the Emperor, and Xi will also be promoted from a small country to a powerful country and a great country.
This span is something that many generations of monarchs have worked hard to rule for hundreds of years, and for Yao Yun and Xiguo, it is a natural thing to be promoted.
When Yao Yun heard the kings praise Xiguo, the bald dragon on his shoulder was very excited, with his teeth and claws open and his whole body was in a state of self-interest.
Yao Yun was not as complacent as bald dragon. He stood up and was very elegant and easy-going: "Don't praise the orphans, let's talk about paper. This thing is cheaper than silk books and more convenient than bamboo slips. It is very worth promoting and using, and it benefits the people."
When Yao Yun talked about the advantages of paper, the kings of various countries were shocked. If King Xi said, the paper would be like taking bamboo slips and silk books instead.
If ordinary merchants made paper, the first thing that these monarchs who dominated the country and had great power came to mind was to use various means to seize papermaking and take it all.
Even some barons and viscount princes obtained papermaking techniques, and these powerful monarchs could obtain papermaking techniques through coercion and inducement.
But the person in front of him is a god from the imperial clan, with a direct lineage of Xi's family, and not to mention the deep background. The previous record of Licheng defeating the three ghost kings in one battle was not something that ordinary small countries could underestimate.
King Yue asked curiously at this time: "Since paper can be widely used, how much does it cost?"
Before Yao Yun set out, he had already established a paper mill in Xidu and Lichengdu. The paper was continuously produced and could fully supply the needs of various countries.
Paper has a wide range of uses and consumes a lot, so Yao Yun did not deliberately play any marketing. The price is not high, and the quantity is better. After all, the value of paper is that it has a wide range of materials, low cost, and easy to use.
Yao Yun smiled and said, "Paper is a magical tool for governing the country and safeguarding the people. It benefits the people. I don't plan to make huge profits from it. The price will be lower. In the future, let alone noble people, maybe all the people can afford it. You can rest assured!"
Hearing this, many kings nodded, secretly admiring Yao Yun's mind. If others said this, they would definitely sneer at it. Nothing to make huge profits would definitely fool people. However, if this was said from Xi Yunzi, everyone would not believe it.
After all, Xi Yunzi was a person who even offered the art of iron smelting, and the moral character of the benevolent and sage king Di Xi was unquestionable.
The King of Chu couldn't help but sigh: "King Xi, your character is no less than that of the sage king of benevolence and virtue in the past, and I admire him very much."
The King of Wu also spoke: "Yes, looking at the young masters of the Xia Dynasty, no one can do anything to you except the current emperor's son Qi."
King Yue sighed: "I should have a son like Yao Xiyun!"
The three marquises expressed their opinions to praise Yao Yun's noble character, and they were very generous in their words.
The three marquises spoke, and the monarchs of the other small countries naturally waved their flags and shouted, praising Yao Yun. Mo Bo and Shan Yuan Bo had already had good friends with Xi Guo, so they would be even more ineffective in saying good things to Yao Yun.
In a blink of an eye, the focus of this monarch banquet was all on Yao Yun, dazzling.
However, the most depressing thing among them is Izumo. Others don’t know about Yao Yun, but he fought with Yao Yun so many times in the air and had long understood that Yao Yun is a master who will not suffer any losses. He is sure that Yao Yun can make a big profit on paper. If he believed his nonsense, he would probably be cheated and would not be able to find Bei!
Izumo Bo’s heart is clear, but now all the kings praise Yao Yun. If he stands up and criticizes Yao Yun, I’m afraid that someone will mock him without Yao Yun’s words in the next second!
Xi Yunzi is really not as noble as you think!!!
The princes who were originally friends with him also picked up Yao Yun's stinky feet and licked him. This made Bo Izumo extremely depressed. After shouting in his heart, he picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.
The monarch banquet on the first day was very lively. In addition to the initial brothers who were looking for the wise masters, many Qi Refining Masters who lived in seclusion in the countryside appeared. They came here to find the wise king and the scene was very lively.
Yao Yun has gained a lot and has recruited several masters of Qi Refining. Although his qualifications and cultivation are not too high, he is also a rare talent. Yao Yun is very satisfied.
In addition, at the banquet, there are all kinds of treasures. After eating the thousand-year-old Zhuyucao, which will never be hungry, and after eating the ear rat that can relieve all poisons, a cub of Qiongqi with a qualification of up to 4th grade appeared!
