Chapter 106: Ying Yuan finally shows his hand

Everyone gathered at the Feng family was so excited by Feng Jie's words.

no way!
They had all seen the benefits of the paper at court meetings.

White, fragrant, light, easy to use...

It can be said that except for the selling price, there is nothing they are dissatisfied with.

But precisely because they are satisfied, they are determined to get this paper.

Because, if they like it, then other people in that place will definitely like it too.

Then, will they still worry about not being able to sell them?

So what if the cost of silk is three times that?
No matter how much they paid for it, they just doubled it, doubled it again, and then sold it.

Just ask those people if they want it? !
At least people like them will keep a portion of it no matter how expensive it is.

After all, this paper is really good!
The people gathered at the Feng family decided to go all in to buy paper, which was actually nothing.

From the sight of Fusu rushing to Ying Yuan’s mansion in a disheveled state that afternoon, it was clear that it wasn’t just the old nobles who were greedy.

"Sixth Brother, hurry up! Save me!"

Seeing Fusu running in shouting and yelling, without any gentlemanly demeanor as usual, Ying Yuan, who was chatting with Xiao He, immediately raised his eyebrows.

"Oh, isn't this my dear brother?"

"What's wrong? What trouble have you gotten yourself into?"

"Hurry up, tell me and make me happy!"

After being teased by Ying Yuan, Fusu immediately looked at him with resentment in his eyes.

"Who do you think caused me this trouble?"

"Not you yet?"

"You probably don't know, but since the end of the court, more than a hundred people have come to me and rushed to buy paper."

"Even my teacher Chunyu, who usually doesn't care about these things, came forward to ask me to sell him some paper, and asked me if I could give him a fair price!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Looking at Fusu's resentful look, Ying Yuan didn't hide it at all, and just rolled over with laughter in gloating.

Fusu looked at this heartless brother in front of him with a frown on his face.

If he didn't know he couldn't win, he would really want to rush forward and beat the other person to death.

Xiao He looked at Fusu's anxious expression and said with a smile.

"Prince Fusu, is this actually a good thing for you?"

"Good thing? Xiao Fengchang, although you were promoted by my sixth brother, you can't help my sixth brother to fool me, right? This is clearly a pot of water!"

When Fusu heard what Xiao He said, he got furious on the spot.

In response to Fusu's rebuttal, Xiao He rolled up his sleeves and raised his index finger.

"Prince Fusu, let me calculate this for you. If you handle this matter, the first benefit is that you will become famous, right?"

Fusu nodded.

He admitted this!

After all, the impact was so huge. Anyone who knew what paper was would know that it was made by Fusu with great effort in the workshop.

Xiao He shook his index finger and explained with a smile.

"This reputation alone is enough to go down in history. For you, even if you don't make a fortune, at least you won't lose money!"

Fusu nodded again, he admitted it.

Xiao He then stretched out his middle finger again, shook his two fingers, and said frankly.

"Secondly, from today on, since you revealed that you, Fusu, invented paper, you, Fusu, will be the leader of all the schools of thought in the Qin Dynasty, and even the leader of the Qin Dynasty's culture!"

"This is the best compliment that the young master has chosen for you, a gentle gentleman!"

Upon hearing this, Fusu was no longer excited. Instead, he looked at Ying Yuan with a little shyness.

Obviously, he understood it too.

Although Ying Yuan threw the blame on him, he actually gave him the honor as well. This is a reputation that will be passed down through the ages.

However, Xiao He was not as excited as Fusu. Instead, he glanced at Ying Yuan.

"The third point is my guess about Master Yuan, but I don't know if it is accurate or if it is convenient to talk about it!"

"Oh?"

When Ying Yuan heard this, he smiled playfully.

guess?

Looking at Xiao He's confident look, he couldn't help but feel emotional.

After all, he is a famous person with a name and surname in history.

A man who can firmly occupy a position in the top five list of civil officials over the past five thousand years must be truly a man of great ability.

Ying Yuan nodded at Xiao He and said with a smile.

"Xiao Fengchang, please feel free to speak up. I really want to hear Xiao Fengchang's guess!"

Xiao He took a breath calmly, raised his ring finger and shook it again.

"This is the third benefit of Prince Fusu that I mentioned!"

"That is a challenge to the entire existing noble system of the Qin Dynasty!"

"Others may not understand, but the three of us know that this paper is fundamentally different from bamboo slips and silk."

"That's a bargain!"

“Surprisingly, outrageously cheap!”

Hearing what Xiao He said, Ying Yuan nodded with satisfaction.

That’s right!
It seems that Xiao He really saw through his thoughts.

This is simply the roundworm in your stomach.

If Ying Yuan was a cheater from later times, he would be stunned by the look in his eyes.

But precisely because of this, Ying Yuan was even more grateful that he had tied Xiao He to his chariot so early on.

But here the king and his subjects respected each other, but Fusu on the side was confused.

"Uh, Xiao Fengchang, this paper may be cheap, but how can it challenge the existing noble system?"

"Besides, I haven't heard anyone say that they want to attack the existing noble system!"

Facing Fusu's questioning, Xiao He shook his head calmly.

“No one has really explained it clearly!”

"This is what I have guessed recently based on my observation of the various decrees issued by the Prince Regent in the court, and the appearance of this paper!"

"Guess?"

Fusu shouted in surprise.

But Xiao He said calmly: "Yes, I guessed it!"

"But I am 90% sure of this speculation. The Prince Regent is planning to attack the noble system of the Qin Dynasty!"

Having said that, Xiao He and Fusu both turned their heads to look at Ying Yuan.

Obviously, this problem will ultimately fall on Ying Yuan's shoulders.

Only he, now that he, as a prince, exercises the power of regent and has the support of the First Emperor, can do such a thing in a bold way.

Looking at the expectant eyes of the two people in front of him, Ying Yuan was silent for a moment, and finally nodded slowly.

"Since Xiao Fengchang has already guessed it, I won't hide it from you two. This is indeed true!"

Since Ying Yuan decided to confess, he naturally would not hide it any longer. He simply spread his hands and said.

"The nobles of the Qin Dynasty have already encroached upon too many interests that originally belonged to the Qin Dynasty and its people."

"If we don't defeat them, the Qin Empire will be in chaos and the people will suffer!"

"And this paper is prepared for this very purpose!"
