Chapter 244: The Treasure in Captain Cao’s Arms

As the number one rebellious son who rebelled against the Chunyu family, the vicious scholar Chen Ping, who also used the name Chunyu Ping, had no less resentment towards his father than anyone else.

For Chen Ping, who was extremely devout in academics, his resentment towards his father actually exceeded that of ordinary people.

Because it was this father who brought him into the academic world and then threw a pile of classics at him for him to study.

Unfortunately, Chen Ping is an extremely intelligent and ruthless man.

As he studied, he found that what the book said seemed different from what his father said.

Then, he had a debate with his father. The young Chunyu Ping actually left Chunyu Yue speechless in theory. In the end, he was able to restrain him with Confucian rules such as father-son relationship and filial piety.

This completely disappointed him.

So he ran away.

Putting aside the halo of the Chunyu family, he went out to take a closer look at this world for himself.

Then he stabbed out his own eyes.

There is too much filth in the world, and it is enough to be blind with your eyes and clear with your heart.

But after becoming blind, Chen Ping's senses became more acute.

More importantly, after careful selection, he finally got together with Ying Yuan, the "outsider".

If you were to ask, who is the person in this world who is most tolerant of Chen Ping?
That could probably only be Ying Yuan, who was wrapped in a soul from another world and had seen the world.

Later results proved that Ying Yuan was indeed worthy of Chen Ping's bet.

Just like now, Chen Ping, who originally thought that he could reach the same level as his father within three years, had a great influence on Confucianism.

Don't be too happy now.

Moreover, if the young master's arrangement today were to spread out, it would be a lot of fun.

Dr. Chunyu was fined, but the money from the fine was rewarded to the papermaking workshop;

But the family was able to buy paper because of Dr. Chunyu's help.

So when the noble families find out that they have been cheated, will they believe that it was Prince Fusu, the "honest man", who did it?
Will they believe that Dr. Chunyu is innocent?

Even a fool wouldn't believe it.

Just as everyone was thinking about these things, Cao Shen suddenly mustered up the courage to speak.

"Sir, I have a plan!"

After these words were spoken, regardless of what others thought, Ying Yuan was at least satisfied.

Let’s not talk about whether Cao Shen’s so-called "strategy" is reliable or not.

The fact that this kid can express his own ideas proves that he is beginning to become confident.

That's great!
How can you grow without confidence?

"Oh, Captain Cao, what strategy do you have to teach me?"

"tell me the story!"

Ying Yuan nodded at Cao Shen with a smile on his face, his eyes full of encouragement.

It’s not easy. Even this inconspicuous person that I brought here knows how to make progress. It seems that great things can be expected from him.

Come on!

Cao Shen looked at Ying Yuan's encouraging eyes, took a deep breath, and then spoke loudly.

"Sir, I have carefully considered your ideas and I want to lower the price of this paper in two steps."

"One of these is a flyer for the Heroes Conference!"

"Huge quantities of leaflets were distributed all over the country, so anyone with a brain would know that the paper couldn't be too expensive."

"This is the first wave of attack!"

"When the academy opens, and students see the books made of paper in their hands, the second wave of attacks will arrive again!"

"After all, it can be provided to students on a large scale, which proves that there are sufficient advantages in terms of production and price."

"But I feel that if that's all, the price of paper may collapse, but it won't collapse so quickly!"

"In that case, I've thought about it and figured out a way." At this point, Cao Shen was a little hesitant, but in the end he gritted his teeth, rummaged around in his arms for a long time and took out a good thing.

"I feel that if paper can be put together with this thing, the price of paper will definitely collapse!"

After hearing what Cao Shen said, everyone present became curious.

Especially Ying Yuan, he is so curious.

You know, even though others may not know it, he knew very well how Cao Shen's idiom "Xiao Gui Cao Sui" came from.

To put it bluntly, it was because although Cao Shen had both the abilities and means, he was better at maintaining the status quo rather than innovating.

If we use the data in the game to illustrate, it means that the tactical execution ability is maxed out, but the strategic ability is barely passing.

If it were an ordinary situation, it would be fine. Such a person is considered extremely outstanding.

But unfortunately, his predecessor was too awesome.

Xiao He was a man who not only had great tactical execution capabilities, but also had excellent strategic deployment capabilities.

But Cao Shen was a man who was very self-aware.

Therefore, he had no intention of changing the various rules set by Xiao He and just followed them honestly.

But now?

Wow, Cao Shen actually came up with a plan.

Again, no matter what the result is, just because of this intention, Ying Yuan feels pleasantly surprised.

Xiao He, who was standing aside, looked at Cao Shen with surprise.

As fellow villagers from Pei County, their group, led by Xiahou Ying's imperial guards, is doing a good job.

Zhou Bo even received a good evaluation from Ying Yuan when he said "he held the troops in a just and impartial manner".

But on the contrary, Cao Shen, who had a higher starting point than the other two and should have more experience, has fallen behind along the way.

How could Xiao He not be anxious?

It’s better now!

Finally, there is some performance.

It is precisely because of this that everyone's attention is now on Cao Shen's hands.

As a result, Cao Shen took out a thing from his pocket with a smile on his face, which turned out to be...

"Toilet...toilet chips?"

When Xiao He shouted this, the tone of his voice changed.

Not to mention the way his eyes seemed to be popping out of his head.

Obviously, he was terrified to the extreme.

At this moment, Ying Yuan, who was at the top of the group, suddenly twitched his face and covered his face with a slap.

Damn, that’s sloppy!

This thing is poisonous!

What is toilet chips?

To put it bluntly, it's a butt-scratching thing!

Of course, Ying Yuan doesn’t use this thing.

As a time traveler who has experienced modern life, now that he has become a member of the royal family and has the conditions, he would naturally not use this thing.

Ying Yuan would rather have two fewer gorgeous robes and fewer "flashy" things like jade pendants, but he would never use the toilet chips!

The results of it?
He actually watched Cao Shen take out the toilet token from his pocket in broad daylight!

However, when Ying Yuan thought of this, a very strange question suddenly popped up in his mind.

Why would Cao Shen, this bastard, keep this toilet token in his arms?
He really took it out of his arms just now!

Could it be that I need to carry this thing with me?

Damn, bad luck!
