Chapter 494: Union (hu) and (you) Temple

After determining the direction, Su Ye took out a magic book, wrote and painted, decomposed the project, dismantled the target, established methods, found obstacles, and determined the target methods in advance, and even performed a preview in his mind.

Before he could have breakfast, Jimmy ran over and greeted him from afar.

"Su Ye, you can go to the back door today."

Su Ye was stunned for a moment, always thinking something was wrong, and asked, "Why?"

"The door has been blocked by many people, including small nobles, large nobles butlers, and some merchants. If they weren't afraid of magic, they had rushed in. They all shouted to see you, hoping that you could sell them the excess temple treasures." Jimmy said.

"You immediately look for Teacher Nideen and say that the time is coming, and he will help me solve it." Su Ye said.

"Okay, you'd better not show up." Jimmy ran around, and the long-distance running technique he had practiced for many years played a role in this moment.

Su Ye disguised himself as he used the magic mask before using it and secretly left through the back door.

Arriving at the Temple of the Sun, Su Ye found Alamo and then received his own gambling bonus.

More than six million.

"How about accompanying me to other temples?" Su Ye asked.

Alamo turned around and left.

"Oh, I still want to negotiate a big business with the Apollo Temple." Su Ye said.

"Which house is going first?" Alamo turned around decisively, looking righteous.

"Sit in the carriage of your temple and take me to other temples. I will donate 100,000 gold eagles each." Su Yedao.

Alamo sighed and said, "It's not a solution, let's go. Let's talk about business in the carriage."

After getting on the carriage, Su Ye sat firmly on Diaoyutai without saying a word.

"You just want to pretend to be a tiger's power and deceive me to accompany you for a day?" Alamo asked angrily.

"Of course not. I thought about something very important yesterday. You priests are too inefficient in spreading the glory of gods." Su Ye said.

"Continue." Alamo's eyes glowed.

"If you can teach more people to read, and then let everyone have the books and stories about the Sun God in their homes, everyone will believe in the Sun God." Su Yedao.

"I know you should have a solution, but I still have to say that money is not a problem, and it can even be said that books are not a problem. At worst, it can be made into a coolie to make paper every day. The problem is, do you know how difficult it is to teach people to read? It's time to this era, and there are still nobles who are ignorant of illiteracy, and those who are mocking illiteracy are slaves, let alone some civilians. As for slaves, if they were not for the sake of livelihood, they would not be able to read. Without so many people to read, what's the use of filling everyone's home with books?" Alamo said.

"We must constantly spread the glory of the gods and please the gods forever. How can we retreat in the face of this little difficulty? I ask you, first, maintain the status quo and keep the faith of most Greeks in the great sun god Apollo, and second, do something, just pay some golden eagles to make more people believe in Apollo. What do you do?" Su Ye asked.

"I chose the second point, but I think you've made things simple."

"No, the truth is that you always like to think too hard about the problem. If you want more people to believe in Apollo, they can read books related to the Sun God. So, we lack two points, books, and let them read, that's all. I can solve the problem of books. As for literacy, your temple can do it, city-state can do it, and many people can do it." Su Yedao.

"I think you're too naive," Alamo said.

"I ask you, are there more and more people who are literate now?" Su Ye asked.

"Although there are old stubborn nobles who insist on not wanting to read, more and more people are indeed literate." Alamo said.

"Do you think you can change this trend?" Su Ye asked.

"Of course it's impossible to change."

"So, do you think it would be better to let those who recognize the latest characters know the 'Sun God' first, or to know other characters first?" Su Ye asked.

Alamo's expression moved.

Su Ye continued: "Compared with pursuing the food given by the Sun Temple and the charm of following the priests, don't you think it is more important to let the first group of people who know how to follow the spirit of the Sun God?"

"Tell me, why are you doing?" Alamo asked.

"I was playing in Lion Harbor a long time ago and heard countless interesting things from merchants around the world. When I grew up, I always came up with various ideas. I suddenly realized that if we could make cheap paper and if we could quickly print text on paper, wouldn't there be many books? So, I thought, based on the seal and stone carving, I came up with strange printing techniques. As for papermaking, I don't have a clear route, but as long as Plato Academy is willing to support me, I can definitely make low-priced paper by constantly trying." Su Yedao.

"After a long time of wandering around, do you want our temple to go to your place to buy books?" Alamo asked.

"I am a cultural person. I don't sell books. Could it be that I can open a casino to sell slaves?" Su Ye asked back.

"Yes, I can't argue with this."

"Does your temple lack this little money?" Su Ye asked.

Alamo cautiously did not answer.

Su Ye replied for him: "Of course there is no shortage, but if more people get the classics of the Sun God, will the Sun God be happy?"

Alamo vaguely thought about it and said, "Are you repaying the goddess of wisdom? There are too many books, but you are actually spreading wisdom."

"I am not only trying to spread wisdom, but also making money, both of them." Su Ye said.

"My status can be determined in this matter, but you have to take out the sample book first." Alamo said.

"Okay, for the next period of time, I will do my best to prepare paper and print, except for preparing new tableware. Once my cheap paper is made, all parchment rolls, papyrus and wax plates will be eliminated. By then, we will not need to look at the faces of the Egyptians."

Alamo nodded.

Papyrus accounts for a huge proportion of the bulk items purchased by Greece from Egypt. It can be said that the whole world is being choked by Egypt in this regard.

But there is no way, parchment and magic paper are too expensive.

"Did this idea come out when you gained Andrey's talent?" Alamo asked.

Su Ye smiled slightly and said, "Yes."

Su Ye was extremely grateful to Andrei at this moment. Thanks to his related talents such as "Perfect Memory", he recalled some completely forgotten things.

However, there are some things that do not require complete memory.

Although I can't remember the entire process of papermaking, I also remember that papermaking is nothing more than crushing and boiling plant fibers such as bamboo bark to form pulp, and then I will find a way to lay it into sheets and remove water and dry it.

This process may be simple, but it is actually very difficult to start from scratch and requires countless trial and error and experiments.

But, it’s only a matter of time to make cheap and durable paper with magicians, dwarf craftsmen.

During the production process, craftsmen and magicians will solve all problems and even use magic to create better quality paper.

Just like porcelain, Su Ye has no idea how to make it. He only knows that he needs appropriate porcelain clay, and then fire it at high temperature and then form glaze.

Magicians and craftsmen do not lack craftsmanship, techniques or methods, they only lack one direction and creativity.

Su Ye happened to know that little bit.

Whether it is papermaking, movable type printing or porcelain, it can be realized by today's technology.

Su Ye even suspected that at most six months, magicians and craftsmen would use extremely low costs to make high-quality paper far beyond their imagination.

After all, as long as the papermaking process is determined, all magicians and craftsmen need to do is to continuously improve. Too many magical medicines can improve paper. As long as the profit is sufficient, special magic weapons can even be made, just like that volcanic furnace.

The only thing Su Ye has to pay is a few words, the early costs, and the doubts.

Before leaving the Sun Temple, Su Ye spent a total of 400,000 yuan on the eagle and bought two super-large space rings with a length, width and height of up to 100 meters.

It is equivalent to two legendary magical tools.

Accompanied by Alamo, Su Ye visited the temples of the gods given to his gods one by one. He not only donated 100,000 gold eagles, but also talked with the priests of each temple, talked about improving bows and arrows with the hunting temple, talked about how to spread faith and sell books on land, talked about commercial cooperation with the commercial temple, talked about high-level wine production with the wine temple, talked about the temple of the vagrant temple to prepare for the establishment of a new corps to create disputes, talked about the temple of the Xianghe temple to strengthen Greek strength to resist Persian invasion and make Greece more peaceful, talked about contraception with the temple of the Love Temple...

In short, Su Ye played his silence and was busy until the night before he collapsed on the carriage weakly.

However, when Su Ye and the priests of the temples were secretly talking, Alamo did not participate.

"What did you talk to them? Can't you talk about it?"

"I can't tell them about spreading the glory of the Sun God, right?" Su Ye said.

"Then you let me accompany you, just let our Sun Temple take the blame for you?" Alamo said with a dark face.

"You can't say that." Su Ye was lazy.

"You owe us a favor to the Temple of the Sun!" said Alamo.

"Really? I think it is a very accomplished thing to make the temple owe people a favor. As for whether to pay it back or not, it is not something I can decide." Su Ye said.

"Sure enough, you're just a bastard!"

Late at night, Su Ye sneaked back to the branch office through the back door and entered Nideen's room.

"Look first." Nedon smiled proudly.

Su Ye immediately took over a big gold bag that was similar to an ordinary gold bag, worth more than 20,000 gold eagles, and could hold up to one billion gold eagles!

When he opened it, Su Ye showed an incredible look.

"That little thing was sold for more than 8.2 million?" Su Ye asked.

"You don't know that when you say you sell the Thunder Cloud Shield Spear, the reactions of those big nobles, the little nobles and the big merchants are just like carnival. In the end, they forced me to auction it at night because I had to spend the day to raise funds or find collateral. A set of Thunder Cloud Shield Spears alone sold 7.9 million yuan!"
