Zuo Bo can indeed be said to be a very famous paper craftsman in this era.

Having said that, Guo Peng was not interested in letting Zuo Bo use sesame seeds to make Zuo Bo paper, which took a long time, was cumbersome, expensive, expensive, and extremely limited in production.

He took Zuo Bo directly to his secret papermaking factory and asked him to look at his bamboo paper production line.

Let him see the cheap and efficient bamboo paper production technology he has.

Before occupying Hebei, Guo Peng secretly maintained the bamboo paper production line for a long time in order to mass-produce enough thunder to create enough thunder to produce enough thunder to produce enough thunder to produce enough thunder to produce.

When Zuo Bo learned that the bamboo paper production technology that Guo Peng had was so efficient and cheap, he was shocked to ask Guo Peng why he did not expand production.

“Why expand production?”

Guo Peng asked Zuo Bo with a smile.

Zuo Bo's face was full of doubts.

"Expanding production can sell more. If you sell more, you can use paper, earn a lot of money, buy more land and houses, benefit future generations, and even give future generations the opportunity to study and become scholars."

Zuo Bo's ideas and ideas are very simple, and they have not surpassed the times at all.

Guo Pengze smiled and shook his head.

"I don't need these, I have them all. I make paper to make paper a cheap item that ordinary farmers can afford, rather than a luxury that is more expensive than gold now. I want everyone to use paper, not just scholars."

Zuo Bo doesn’t understand, don’t understand.

"What's the use of ordinary people who are illiterate and do not read? "

"Without cheap paper, they will never be able to read and read."

Guo Peng shook his head and said, "My idea will not be recognized by scholars. If that is the case, it is better to slow down. After I can do it, I will take out the bamboo paper. Then, everyone will be able to use paper and everyone can learn to read and write. Now, bear it first."

After Guo Peng finished speaking this, he would not explain.

Zuo Bo didn't understand why Guo Peng wanted everyone to use paper and learn to read and write.

This is simply impossible, isn't it?

Guo Peng does not need Zuo Bo's understanding and understanding.

Of course, when he knew these things, Zuo Bo's personal freedom was also monitored by Guo in all aspects. He was not allowed to leave the place designated by Guo and could not move freely.

He was included in his papermaking team by Guo Peng and was ordered to devote himself to research, improve the bamboo paper production process, find ways to increase the output and quality of bamboo paper, and further reduce costs, preparing for the future explosion of production capacity.

At the same time, Guo Peng also sold some cheaply produced bamboo papers on the Internet under the name of Zuo Bo Paper.

Guo Peng set up a papermaking workshop in Qingzhou under the name of Zuo Bo, set up a series of papermaking handicraft workshops, and then did paper business in the name of Zuo Bo, and also completed a monopoly on Qingzhou's papermaking industry and even the national papermaking industry.

Not only that, Guo Peng also deliberately controlled the sales volume of bamboo paper, turning cheaply produced bamboo paper into a terrible luxury, specially sold to those in need, cutting their leeks in large quantities.

The powerful and scholars under his command were mainly cut off.

The money spent on buying paper every year by the powerful and scholars is really a considerable expense and can be regarded as huge profits. After all, all of this money was taken to support soldiers by Mr. Guo.

It feels so good to rob the rich and help the poor.

Unfortunately, I can't sell more, otherwise this business would be more profitable than a war horse transaction. There would be no need for Mi caravan to go back and forth from north to south. Just selling paper in Qingzhou can recycle the military spending and absorb the blood of the gentry and powerful people.

Scarcity is precious.

A piece of cheaply produced bamboo paper can be sold at a sky-high price as long as it is named Zuobo paper, and there are also a large number of orders, which are flocking to the powerful.

From then on to the present, all paper craftsmen in Qingzhou were collected by Mr. Guo to the Taihang Mountains, and continued to secretly produce paper and books.

For a long time, Mr. Guo has been secretly manipulating the so-called Zuobo paper trade and making high profits.

It's true that this business is really profitable.

So sometimes Mr. Guo will smile bitterly.

If you knew it, you would have to take out papers earlier and realize the accumulation of original capital as soon as possible. Maybe you can get rich earlier and attract more troops.

But now it's OK.

Nowadays, some things need to be started. After the operation, it will take time to slowly ferment. After the fermentation reaches a certain level, it is time for quantitative change to cause qualitative change.

The popularity of paper was of great significance to his rule.

Big data is of special help to national rule.

Population data, land data, grain yield data, grain production data, as well as repair consumption data for various water conservancy projects, annual tax data, various property and warehousing data, etc.

Guo was in Luoyang and could rule the world without leaving home. The reason was to discover the problem through analysis of the world's data, find out the cause of the problem, and then solve it.

Data is the emperor's eyes and the emperor's ears. Without data, Guo is a deaf person and a blind person. He cannot effectively and correctly govern the world, and his power will be emptied.

If accurate population data and grain output data of a certain place cannot be obtained, Guo cannot know whether the local officials are responsible and whether they have governed according to his requirements.

The growth in population data and the growth in food production are a reflection of the level of conscientiousness of local officials.

Similarly, such data can also determine whether Guo will praise or punish local officials, whether he will be promoted or dragged out to kill him.

The detailed or not of the data can even allow Guo to see if his power has expanded or reduced.

So data is really important, which is why he strongly supports the accounting group.

His accountants not only exist widely in court departments, but also in various prefectures and counties around the world. They traveled all over the world in the name of business trips and conveyed detailed local data to him.

One of the most important tasks of his grassroots officials and the central government dispatched by the police is to do his best to improve the frequency of data updates and ensure the correctness and authenticity of the data.

And this has two great premises.

First, the central government has a sufficient number of accountants and local grassroots minor officials.

This has been achieved through more than ten years of construction by Guo. He has a sufficient number of accounting teams, masters sufficient mathematical abilities, and is strong.

And this second point is the most difficult and most important.

There must be enough writing carriers.

Without enough writing carriers, detailed data cannot be recorded, and data cannot be updated in real time at high frequency. The data will be lagging, which is very unfavorable to national governance.

In an era when bamboo slips became the mainstream carrier of writing, the recording limitations, weight and cost of bamboo slips themselves were stumbling blocks to realizing this requirement for big data by Guo.

The endless wars in the world made the paper writing model that gradually became popular in the late Han Dynasty regressed to the bamboo slip writing model, which delayed the Chinese's large-scale use of paper for more than a hundred years.

This also affected Guo's plan to promote the Wei government's ability to govern.

In this state, he had to use a large amount of bamboo slips to meet his needs, and this was indeed a lot of inconvenience.

Those important data were sent from the local area to the central government, and the court officials widely believed that this was an unnecessary move to trouble the local area, but Guo Peng insisted on doing so.

Despite this, Mr. Guo also accurately realized that such a situation cannot last for a long time and that the popularity of paper is a must-do.

In the past, his power and status were not stable enough, and there were still many challenges. He could not rashly release a large amount of paper to stir up people's nerves. Now that his power has gradually stabilized, he can start the historical process of replacing bamboo slips with confidence.

When the imperial court urgently needed a slightly cheaper writing carrier to reduce fiscal expenditure, it was the time when the initial historical changes emerged.

Responding to the call of the times is also a way to divert attention, making people less quickly realize that Guo is manipulating behind this.

Zuo Bo, who was under Guo Peng's control, stood up.
