Chapter 27 Can I still lose money?

Chapter 27

After Li Shimin talked about the paper, he looked at Qin Huaidao. Qin Huaidao was sitting there making tea, and he was thinking in his mind, what should he do about this matter?

Li Shimin didn't urge Qin Huaidao. He knew that Qin Huaidao was in a difficult situation now and was very scared, so he kept waiting for Qin Huaidao.

"Your Majesty, are you mistaken? How could Boping get the paper? The best paper now is rice paper. If Boping makes the paper, which is similar to rice paper, what's the use? Will you have to paste tens of thousands of guan every year to get it in?" Yuchi Jingde said first,

Of course he knew the importance of paper. If Qin Huaidao really made paper, it would be a big deal for the court, and for Qin Huaidao, it would be a big deal, a mixed matter.

"Yes, Your Majesty, are you mistaken?" Fang Xuanling also looked at Li Shimin and said carefully.

Li Shimin did not answer them, but looked at Qin Huaidao and said, "I just said that I should protect your Qin Mansion and your safety. Several uncles have also heard of it. What are you still worried about? Let's say it out together!"

"Your Majesty! Is this true?" Li Jing also looked at Li Shimin seriously and asked.

"It's true. He has a way. He has a way to produce large quantities of paper, and it's cheap!" Li Shimin turned his head and looked at Li Jing and said, and Li Zhi also told Li Shimin later. Now he fully believes that Qin Huaidao has this ability.

"This, Boping, but it's true?" Yuchi Jingde immediately looked at Qin Huaidao and asked, but Qin Huaidao still didn't say anything.

"Boping, if it is true, take it out. The poor family needs paper. I know, you are afraid, but don't be afraid. Your Majesty has already said that I am still here, so don't worry about anything, just take it out!" Yuchi Jingde looked at Qin Huaidao and said very seriously. When Qin Huaidao heard it, he looked at Yuchi Jingde.

"If you take it out, the world cannot be controlled by the family forever. The poor family needs the opportunity to be promoted. Otherwise, the world will be in chaos again after many years. The family controls the court.

Once there is no wise monarch in the court, they will find a way to replace it, and the people will be bullied, and then the people will live a hard life again!" Yuchi Jingde sat there and continued,

Yuchi Jingde was a blacksmith and had never read many books. After recognizing words, he had to learn some of them. He was a representative of the person who really got up from the bottom.

"Yes, if there is really, Your Majesty is here, and we are here too. Don't worry about anything. If there is, you can make it out!" Li Jing also looked at Qin Huaidao and said seriously.

"Huh~" Qin Huaidao took a deep breath, then looked up at Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, I can do it!"

"Okay!" When Li Shimin heard Qin Huaidao say this, he stood up in an excited moment and looked at Qin Huaidao.

"Your Majesty, I have a request!" Qin Huaidao also stood up at this moment, looked at Li Shimin and said, "This paper is for Brother Wei Shan to supervise. Your Majesty, you account for 50%, and our families share the 50%!"

"You can fight for the loss?" Li Shimin heard it and looked at Qin Huai with a little strange feeling.

In his impression, papermaking is a loss-making business. Although Qin Huaidao said it was cheap, Li Shimin thought that if it was really cheap, he would make a lot of money.

He thought that he would rather spend tens of thousands of pounds of money every year than lower the paper to a price that ordinary people can afford. What he wanted was that all poor children could afford it.

"Lost money?" Qin Huaidao was a little puzzled. How could he lose money?

"Isn't this a loss of money? I hope, well, just like this rice paper, it costs 3 cents to be so large. I think if it costs one cent and the amount is large, I think the people will definitely buy it!" Li Shimin said as he took the rice paper on Qin Huaidao's desk, which was probably as big as a piece of A4 paper from later generations, and said to Qin Huaidao.

"That's the price, a penny? People can't afford it? We can only hire workers for a penny a day. Including food, it's only 2 penny. Ordinary people can't afford it!" Qin Huaidao looked at Li Shimin with a little surprise and said.

"Well, as long as you can make paper cheaper than rice paper, the key is to be able to supply in large quantities. Then I can reduce it a little more. What I want is that all the poor people in the world can sell paper." Li Shimin looked at Qin Huaidao and said very seriously.

"This, Your Majesty, if, I say, if, ordinary people can afford such paper, what price does Your Majesty think are the right one?" Qin Huaidao thought for a moment and asked Li Shimin.

"Well, ordinary people can afford it, then, well, this is hard to say. Of course, the cheaper the better!" Li Shimin thought for a while, it was difficult to answer this question, after all, the cheaper the better.

"What if you spend a penny, what about 10 pieces of paper like this? Is it OK?" Qin Huaidao pointed at the paper in Li Shimin's hand again and asked.

"How could there be such cheap paper? How much does Your Majesty need to pay for it?" Fang Xuanling shook his head and said, "Making paper is a loss-making business. If it is at a price like Qin Huaidao, Li Shimin will lose to death!"

"I can do it, and I can make 10 pieces of papers per cent, so I can make money. Well, I can make about twice as much. In fact, I can make about 20 pieces per cent. It is my calculation now!" Qin Huaidao looked at Li Shimin and the others with a smile.

"What?" Li Shimin, the ministers stood up in shock when they heard this, and among them, Li Shimin even stared at Qin Huaidao.

"I just said that if I take it out, your Majesty, you will account for 50%, and our families will earn 50%, which is considered to be a blessing for the scholars in the world!" Qin Huaidao stood there confidently, watching Li Shimin and the others talking.

"If I take it seriously at this time, I will be sure!" Li Shimin answered very quickly. He could buy 10 such papers for a penny, and he would still make money. Li Shimin didn't think about it and agreed immediately.

Now the rice paper has to pay for it, and the output is very low, so it requires limited supply.

When Qin Huaidao heard Li Shimin's words, he walked into a dark room next to the study. They didn't know what Qin Huaidao was going to do, so they just waited.

"Is this kid true?" Yuchi Jingde was a little suspicious at this moment. He felt that Qin Huaidao was too confident.

"I hope it is true, so that my poor children from the Tang Dynasty will have books to read!" Fang Xuanling said, touching his beard, and the same was true for the other ministers.

"I, I hope it is true. You are all ministers around me, and I know what I think. I have always wanted to innovate on Xuan Paper, but I have never been able to succeed. I also know that they cannot succeed. Those who manage Xuan Paper are all from the aristocratic families. How could they innovate? "Li Shimin held his hands behind his back, his heart full of hope. He kept staring at the door of Qin Huaidao's dark room.

After Qin Huaidao entered the darkroom, he reported a lot of paper from it, all of which were not cut, and the size was one meter times one meter two large paper.

Qin Huaidao just came out with the paper in his arms, and Li Shimin and the others immediately surrounded him. Qin Huaidao put it on the desk, then spread it, occupying most of the tabletop.

"Your Majesty, this is the paper you need. A large piece of paper does not cost a penny, but it can be cut according to your rice paper, which can actually be cut by about 20 pieces." Qin Huaidao stood there before he finished speaking, Li Shimin and the others immediately surrounded him, took several large pieces and looked at them carefully.

"This is the brush, there is ink here, okay!" Li Shimin took the paper and wanted to find the brush and ink, and saw that there was something on Qin Huaidao's desk. He immediately picked up the brush and dipped it ink to start writing.

Fang Xuanling and the others also picked up the brush from Qin Huaidao's pen holder and spread it to write ink.

"Don't write, you two, grind ink!" Li Shimin saw Li Zhi and the others who wanted to pick up the brush to write, and immediately shouted at them.

"Oh!" When they heard this, they immediately started grinding with ink sticks, and then their eyes were staring at Li Shimin writing. Li Shimin wrote a lot of words, and they dipped them in a lot of ink to write, just to see how ink-permeable the paper is.

Seeing that they were so enthusiastic, Qin Huaidao smiled, so he gave up his position and walked to the tea set to continue making tea.

"Tsk tsk tsk? Such white paper is so good to put on ink, it's not clear. Good paper, good paper!" Li Shimin wrote a lot, and after finishing writing, he was very impressed. Then he looked at Qin Huaidao and found that Qin Huaidao was sitting there to continue making tea for them.

"Qin Huaidao, is this thing really so cheap?" Li Shimin asked with the paper and took the paper to Qin Huaidao.

"There are still tens of thousands of large pieces of paper in the warehouse. If it can be cut millions of pieces according to the size of rice paper, if the cost of rice paper is 3 cents, then it will be 3 millions of pieces, worth 3,000 guan. Your Majesty, there is not so much money in our mansion!" Qin Huaidao stood up with a smile, bowed to Li Shimin and said.

"Don't talk about three cents, it's just a penny. You don't have any money now. There is no dividend for the brick factory!" Yuchi Jingde said happily beside him.

"There is still in that room?" Li Shimin pointed to the room where Qin Huaidao had just entered and asked.

"Yes, there are tens of thousands more. By the way, if you need it, take it back and take more!" Qin Huaidao said with a smile.

"That's definitely needed. I need to get more!" Fang Xuanling said happily. At the same time, Li Shimin was carrying lanterns and took Cheng Chusi and the others to the darkroom. When he went in, he saw that it was amazing. The room was full of white paper and neatly stacked.

"Okay, okay, Boping, okay!" Li Shimin stood inside and said three good things in a row, so excited.

Li Zhi was also quite excited. He didn't expect that Qin Huaidao had already made paper. If this issue had not been discussed today, Qin Huaidao would have never released it.
