Chapter 501: Harvest Glory

Su Ye nodded and said, "Very good, then, I will give you the harness, direction, funding, as for the plan and specific operations. Next, we will secretly try to make new harnesses, and then conduct tentative training within Plato Academy. Once the effect is achieved, we must notify the temples, and then organize a secret cavalry regiment with the power of the temple. I believe that our acquisition has been completed before notifying the temple."

"Don't worry! The president will definitely support this acquisition with all his might! I can guarantee that I will complete everything before handing the harness to the temple! However, I will discuss a lot of details with you. For example, how to make the temple believe in the harness and keep it confidential?" said Nedel.

Su Ye smiled slightly and said, "The eyes of the gods are long and bright. They have seen that Persia and Greece will have a battle in the near future. When we offer horse harnesses, it is the day of joy for the gods and the day when the temple is fully cooperating."

"I have ignored your relationship with the temple. However, it is rumored that in addition to the Temple of the Sun and Temple of the Goddess of Wisdom, many temples are dissatisfied with you. This is also an important reason why the three stupid families dare to stop you at the door." Nedel said.

"Before the temple officially issued a statement, everything was just speculation." Su Ye said.

"No," Nedel said and thought.

"We will discuss the details slowly over a few days, but besides harnesses and porcelain, I have another more important thing, which, to some extent, may be one of the most correct things I have done in my life."

Nideen and Nedel looked focused and stared at Su Ye's eyes.

"Thanks to the temporary talent of Andrei and the blessing of the gods, I recalled many things in Lion Harbor in my childhood, and also inspired me. I learned from others that in some places, fishing nets, bark, bamboo and other items are crushed and stewed into pulp, then made into a thin layer, and then removed the moisture, and with the help of various techniques, you can make coarse paper. These papers are a bit bad, even worse than the leaves of papyrus, but these papers have one thing in common, that is, they are very soft. And this paper has the greatest benefit, the production cost is low! Very low, very low! It can be made with trees, bamboo, flax and even some grass."

Nideen's eyes slowly widened, and strange colors appeared in his eyes.

But Nedel asked: "It's a good thing to have low costs, but can we make money?"

Su Ye smiled indifferently and said, "The next key is the key point. I will bear the cost of papermaking research! Once the development is successful, we will only build high-end brands, and then open the formula, skills and everything of papermaking to the whole world! My goal is not to make money by papermaking, but to make all merchants, workshops and temples feel that papermaking can make money, and then, popularize paper all over the world at the fastest speed!"

Nideen turned his head slowly and looked at Su Ye quietly. Even in his false eyes, there seemed to be a flash of light.

"Why?" asked Nedel.

"Why not?" Su Ye asked back.

"Since it's an opportunity to make money, why not take it into our hands?" Nedall asked.

"First, do you think I lack the opportunity to make money?"

“…It seems that there is no shortage.”

"Secondly, paper will become the carrier of this world beyond the land and the ocean. It and the words carry not only what we can see, but also the experience, knowledge and thoughts that we cannot see. What we create is not commodities, but what we create is another new world! So, Mr. Nedel and the President behind you, do you just want to make a little more golden eagle, or do you want to create a new world while making a golden eagle?"

Nedel's breathing was slightly rapid.

He hurriedly restrained his emotions and said laughing and crying: "Awesome, really amazing, worthy of being the two kings of the world. I, a businessman who is jealous of money, was actually moved by you. From my personal perspective, I am willing to do this with you, but from the perspective of the Plato Chamber of Commerce, I cannot agree with it all. But there is one thing I can guarantee that if you pay the research fee yourself, then our Chamber of Commerce will be willing to provide manpower and material resources. I believe that many magicians are willing to do it, Nedon, right?"

The two looked at Nideen.

Neden raised his head slightly, with a proud smile on his face and said, "All magicians are willing to work hard for papermaking, because every magician understands how huge the impact it will have on the whole world once cheap and practical paper appears. In other words, many magicians are studying papermaking, but they are not able to do so. Since Su Ye is willing to bear the cost, I can summon a large number of magicians to join the ranks of studying papermaking."

"I love the magician." Nedel cheered enthusiastically.

Su Ye and Nideen looked at each other and smiled.

"The one that matches papermaking is movable type printing. Because no matter how good the paper is, its value is not as valuable as the above words. The principle of this printing technique is very simple, so simple that when I finish speaking, you will doubt why humans are so stupid that they have discovered it for so long. However, printing technology has very high requirements for craftsmanship, otherwise what is printed is just a vague piece of handwriting. Therefore, magicians need to be dispatched to refine matching magic weapons. Of course, the research cost is still borne by me, and once it is successfully developed, it will still be announced to the world."

"My heart is beating faster." A flush appeared on Nedon's face.

"Imagine is beautiful, there are only so many people who can read, and no matter how many paper and books there are, it is not very useful." Nedell said.

Neden said, "Don't let your eyes stay in the past and present, look to the future. A hundred years ago, even the magicians themselves did not realize that magic would be so great. And now, we cannot realize the impact of papermaking, movable type printing and a large number of books on a hundred years later. When the sun is brightest, it is never early morning, but noon."

"Well, you're right," said Nedel.

Nideen looked at Su Ye and said slowly: "You bear the cost and shoulder the doubts, and you will surely gain glory."

Su Ye smiled slightly, but was a little surprised. Nideen's attitude was too serious, and he was more serious than teaching in class, and he was very uncomfortable.

"I like movable type printing and papermaking. I am willing to join the team of magicians who study these two technologies for free, and I will also recruit like-minded magicians. As expected, Archimedes will like to study movable type printing technology." Neden said.

"Very good! However, we must first study papermaking. Only after we get enough paper can we study movable type printing. We cannot use magic paper or papyrus to carry the printing. Then, next, we must go hand in hand, develop porcelain, horse harness and paper, and acquire the horse farm." Su Yedao.

"You are making this world a better place. You said, you do it." Neden stared at Su Ye with a slightly strange look.

"I love a better world, and that represents more opportunities for gold shining." Nedel praised loudly.

"Then, I'll go home and rest first. From tomorrow, let's make the world a better place." Su Ye smiled warmly.

The three people stood up and Su Ye suddenly said, "I almost forgot that my weapon and equipment brand 'Dragon Slayer' started selling about half a month later and was recruiting agents. If the Plato Chamber of Commerce wants to obtain agency rights, it is best to prepare a large amount of money."

Nedel immediately said: "The same weapons and equipment as Sparta? Don't worry, we will definitely give you a satisfactory price. I can be sure that in the near future, the Dragon Slayer will become the most famous divine equipment in the world."

"There are magical tools, but that will take a certain amount of time." Su Ye said.

"It is the most correct choice for Plato Chamber of Commerce to cooperate with you." Nedel praised loudly.

"It is also my honor to be able to cooperate with the Plato Chamber of Commerce." Su Yedao.

"I'll take you out." After Nedern said that, he glanced at Nederer.

Nedel smiled and said, "I'll report to the President, see you tomorrow!"

The Plato Academy is quiet late at night, but the lively aftertaste of the celebration is still there, making the garden-style college with prosperous plants and trees more heat than usual.

"It's nothing, whether it's horse harness or porcelain, but papermaking and movable type printing... may cause a huge counterattack." Nideen carefully said and spoke slowly.

"So, I let the forces that may be obstructed see the benefits. I study papermaking to fight against Egypt. Printing books is to promote the faith of the gods. So, I will first dedicate papermaking and printing to the Temple of Wisdom. Then... publicly publish it in the Magic Parliament. As for other people to see and use it, it has nothing to do with me." Su Yedao.

"Okay, very good." Neden praised repeatedly.

"Paper, movable type printing and books will definitely make the world better and better." Su Ye said with a smile.

"Yes. I just thought that a world where everyone can read, use paper, and read books will definitely be better than now." Nedern looked at the night sky longingly.

"A world like that will have all kinds of shortcomings, but it is indeed better than it is now, and it will definitely be even better." Su Ye's tone was filled with deep nostalgia.

"Your name will be passed down for generations." Nedern said.

"It's just possible." Su Yedao.

"Yes, it's not us who decides everything." Nedon sighed softly.

The two walked quietly at night and did not say goodbye until in front of the gate.

Watching Nideen turn and leave, Su Ye walked out of the door.

The familiar carriage slowly drove in.

Kelton jumped out of the carriage, spread his arms enthusiastically, and showed an extremely exaggerated smile.

"Welcome back, the great hero of Athens!"

Su Ye accepted Kelton's hug weakly.

"You move forward, miracles along the way!" Kelton looked at Su Ye and felt a lot of emotion.

"Stop talking nonsense, send me home to sleep first." Su Ye said.

"Let's chat in the car as you wish." Kelton said, making a gesture of invitation.

After getting on the carriage, the two exchanged their experiences these days and discussed the future development of the dragon's beauty.

After a long time, the carriage suddenly stopped.

"Master Su Ye, your doorstep is blocked."

Su Ye walked off the carriage and couldn't laugh and cry and watched a large number of neighbors standing or sitting at the door, just like a party, blocking half a street.

"Su Ye is back!"

Everyone smiled and flocked to them.
