Daqin Engineers

Chapter 173

Shen Bing said this seriously, he didn't dare to monopolize papermaking skills.

Paper may be convenient for the people, but it is a propaganda and educational tool for those in power.

In other words, whoever masters the papermaking law masters the ability of large-scale publicity.

If you don’t know how to make paper, you can only slowly toss it with bamboo slips. When you toss it out, the flyers with white and black letters on the other side will fly all over the sky.

What's special in this era when there is no radio and no television is the commanding heights of public opinion and the right to speak.

As the saying goes, "everyone is not guilty of guilt."

Shen Bing is not guilty of inventing paper, nor is it guilty to use paper to pay off debts. Even doing business is not a big deal.

But if you want to monopolize papermaking... Isn't that just about competing with Yingzheng?

This is tired and crooked!

Therefore, the papermaking technique cannot be spread out if it is properly done.

However, as the saying goes, "There is no impermeable wall in the world." As long as papermaking comes out and the manufacturing method is not complicated, it will not be long before it will be spread to the people.

The Shen Bing who passed it out and how it was passed is out of control, as long as it is not Shen Bing.

Ying Zheng pretended not to understand. As he looked at the paper in his hand, he gave a disdainful "huh":

"This thing is so important? The captain needs to be so careful?"

"I don't believe it..."

Shen Bing raised his head towards the navy who was training, and answered:

"Why don't you believe it?"

"For example, the wheeled warship in front of you, if you want to use bamboo slips to write down its manufacturing method and send it to various places, how long will it take to complete?"

"On the contrary, what about paper?

"For example, the method of increasing grain production, the production and improvement of weapons, and even the issuance of orders..."

"It might be possible to pass these to one or two places with bamboo slips."

"But will it spread to all counties and counties in Daqin, or even to every citizen?"

Ying Zheng couldn't help being stunned.

What he had thought before was more that paper would be used by anti-thief. He had also thought about knowledge and skills but never expected it to be so deep.

Now that Shen Bing said this, Ying Zheng was helpless and secretly said:

"Hey!"

"It's the Biruo Daqin Tuntian format. Although it is only a few words, it is very difficult to implement it from top to bottom to every household."

"Qin State even wrote it into the law and implemented it for several years before beginning to see results."

"The fundamental reason is that bamboo slips are difficult to make and cannot be quickly transferred to a large scale."

"If you have paper, you can put the farming format in the hands of counties, counties, and even the people in the shortest time... Why is it so laborious and time-consuming?"

Thinking about it further, Ying Zheng was shocked again in his heart:

"Just as Shen Bing said paper is beneficial to agriculture and military equipment."

"Does that make Qin country stronger?"

"And other countries don't know that the method of making this paper can only stay in the era of bamboo slips. Is it still far to unify the Central Plains?"

"Speaking of which...this Shen Bing was indeed sent by God to help me unify the Central Plains!"

"Why don't you forget about it! Shicai still wants to..."

Thinking of this Yingzheng looking at Shen Bing with rejoicing, he thought to himself that if Shi Cai was impatient, he might make a big mistake.

Of course, Shen Bing didn't know that he had escaped accidentally. He also asked Ying Zheng:

"Are these papers enough for hairpins?"

"If it's not enough, I'll get someone to get some more."

Ying Zheng hurriedly answered:

"More than enough, thank the captain, I'm leaving now!"

Zhao Gao was a little surprised, isn't this a paper-making method?

Did this system go like this before the king?

This is not the character of the king...

However, when Ying Zheng said he was leaving, how could Zhao Gao dare to say anything, and he hurriedly followed behind.

After leaving the barracks, Zhao Gao dared to ask:

"My lord, did I leave like this when I waited?"

"That system..."

Zhao Gao is actually a little selfish. He loves calligraphy and is even a famous calligrapher.

In the past, if you want to show the calligraphy, you have to write on silk, even Zhao Gao also feels the pain.

If you know how the paper is made...

But Ying Zheng interrupted Zhao Gao in the carriage:

"What do you know?"

"This is God's will, I can't wait to interfere randomly!"

"Don't talk to anyone about this trip, understand?"

Zhao Gao and a group of guards hurriedly responded.

Zhao Gao's heart became more and more puzzled. It was just the paper making method. How could it be God's will again?

However, how could Zhao Gao dare to ask more, guessing all the way and couldn't guess why.

But Shen Bing is very happy here, Shen Bing waved "buy" whatever he needed in the barracks.

What to buy?

If you want wine, food, or everything, you only need to give a few pieces of paper.

Once paper is valuable and the price is stable, a piece of paper can be worth ten dollars, then it is actually hard currency equivalent to money... This may be the most primitive paper currency, without any pattern and no anti-counterfeiting paper currency.

So why does Shen Bing want money?Isn’t the pile of paper in the school’s mansion just money?

Only then did Shen Bing have the opportunity to calm down and look through the navy roster.

In ancient times, the army was mostly organized by generals, tribes, and tunes.

The highest commander is the general or general, such as Wang Jian, the commander-in-chief of operations.

Under the general there were several lieutenants and generals, also called generals, such as Yang Duanhe.

The general is divided into several departments, and the subordinates are divided into several songs.

A first lieutenant, such as the navy lieutenant Shen Bing.

There are two soldiers under Shen Bing.

A school lieutenant usually commands 10,000 people, and 10,000 people often need five officers to stand by.

These five officers are not stipulated to bring a certain unit, they are usually assistants of the school lieutenant, and they are only temporarily assigned command tasks when they need to divide their forces for operations.

For example, if Shen Bingzhi has three thousand sailors, only two officers are enough.

In wartime, if it is necessary to divide the troops into battle, three thousand people will be divided into two teams, one team is one thousand and the other two thousand.

There is no problem with a team of one thousand people, and two to five hundred masters can solve the command problem independently.

But how does the 2,000-man team command and unify the pace?

Temporarily designate one of the two to five hundred masters?

Then this two-five-hundred master has to command his own thousand-man team as well as the overall strategy. It is inevitable that the responsibilities of the two-to-five hundred masters are not clear.

At this time, if a military officer is sent to command this 2,000-man team to fight, it will be clear and organized.

One of the two officers placed by Shen Bing was named Li Jian (jiān) and the other named Chen Duan.

These two were designated by Shen Bing based on his training performance, and they were both children of the nobles of the Wei Kingdom.

In fact, Shen Bing also wanted to select a few people from the common people or ordinary soldiers to serve as military officers, but the result disappointed Shen Bing.

General Wang Hou is indeed not born, but he was educated.

This era is not like the modern era where everyone is educated. The ordinary people do not even have the opportunity to be educated except for a few people.

Those who are uneducated or even ignorant are obviously not suitable for commanding troops.
