113 I’ve Thought About Transferring Over

Hearing Cui Lingyi and Sheng Huaixuan’s words, everyone squeezed forward to see what was so extraordinary about the cleaning paper that could be used for toilet.

There were too many of them, so Bai Wutong had no choice but to tear off the roll and distribute it to everyone. “The cleaning paper is made of wood pulp. It softens when it is in contact with water. It’s clean and hygienic. The texture is soft and comfortable to use. As you can see, it can be made with wood shavings and sawdust. The cost of materials and labor is very low. In the future, with these paper machines in our village, everyone will be able to use clean and hygienic cleaning paper.”

Everyone seemed to have woken up from a dream and looked at Great Scholar Yang, who was also enlightened. So that was how the name of the cleaning paper came about.

Only a small number of them could afford to use silk fabric to use the toilet. Bai Wutong had invented cheap toilet paper that could be used to use the toilet. When everyone realized it, they were all filled with joy.

!!
Sheng Huaixuan noticed the rows of cavities on the paper and asked, “Sister-in-law, why are there so many small holes on the paper?”

Bai Wutong smiled and reached for a roll of cleaning paper. After unfolding it, she pulled at it. Where there was a hole, she immediately tore it off easily. The edges were even very neat.

A smart person immediately saw the use of the holes and couldn’t help but exclaim again. “Madam is a genius. It’s our blessing!”

With such good and cheap cleaning paper for toilet, they could stop using bamboo slices.

At the talk about the wonderful use of toilet paper, Bai Wutong explained it to everyone. In addition to daily cleaning, the cleaning paper could be used to bandage wounds, stop bleeding slightly, remove grease and absorb water from the kitchen, and so on.

The more they listened, the happier they became. In the past, they had been limited by poverty and had to be careful with every piece of paper they used. How could they imagine that one day they would be able to use paper at will and use it in the toilet?

Sheng Huaixuan stroked a roll of cleaning paper lovingly. If he could do business, the cleaning paper would definitely be able to enter thousands of families in Hua State.

The raw materials needed to make the cleaning paper were really too cheap and after building a few large workshops, it was undoubtedly a new line of business that was profitable. The best thing was that no one could resist the temptation of the cleaning paper.

Lin Yue also knew that he would definitely be able to earn a lot of money by doing the cleaning paper business, but he was helpless. They could no longer do business now, so he could only remind him solemnly, “Master, Young Master still has to study in the future.”

If they were to enter the business industry again, according to the current rules of the Ling Kingdom, they would be treated as lowly. They would not be allowed to ride horses and carriages when they went out and could only walk. Moreover, even if they did this business, they would have to pay a very heavy tax if they earned money. In addition, they might also have to face the officials forcefully purchasing their goods at a low price and treat them as puppets to control. If Duke Chu was a little more ruthless, he would directly make them bankrupt and reap the benefits.

Old Master had said all this himself. Lin Yue was afraid that Sheng Huaixuan would not be able to let go of the Sheng family’s inheritance. If he did business again, what would happen to the young master? No matter how rich he was, a lowly status meant that they were inferior to others!

Suddenly, Lin Yue thought of something and probed, “Master, don’t tell me you want to transfer the young master to Madam Bai?” If that was the case, it wouldn’t affect the young master’s future studies.

Sheng Huaixuan was just lamenting. Cleaning paper was profitable and belonged to a new industry. It was very likely that the government would interfere. He naturally could not get involved in this mess.

Even if he wanted to do it, he had to figure out the government’s intentions and sister-in-law’s intentions before secretly doing it.

A sharp glint flashed across Sheng Huaixuan’s eyes. Suddenly, his gaze landed on Chu Tianbao, who was carrying Stinky. The corners of his lips curled up meaningfully. “I’ve thought about transferring him over.” However, he could not let his son take over Madam Bai’s status as the legitimate son.

When Lin Yue heard that Sheng Huaixuan really had this intention, he suddenly glanced at Qingfeng. Suddenly, the focus of the topic disappeared. He asked with a fleeting expression, “Then should I follow Young Master if he was transferred?”

Sheng Huaixuan looked at him and smiled meaningfully. Lin Yue immediately felt as if he was naked. He hurriedly said with a red face, “It’s not that I want to join them. I was just saying casually.”

Sheng Huaixuan’s smile deepened, as if he was saying, “If you really want me to, I can give you away now.” Lin Yue was so frightened that he hurriedly expressed his loyalty.

Sheng Huaixuan felt that it was a pity that he could not do a profitable cleaning paper business now. However, Yang Quanzi thought that if sawdust could be used to produce toilet paper and other paper, wouldn’t it be a great improvement for the people?

There were already ready-made paper machines. With Bai Wutong’s intelligence, if she wanted to, she would definitely be able to create paper that could be written.

Thinking of this, Yang Quanzi went up to Bai Wutong, who was discussing the uses of the cleaning paper with everyone, and praised her highly. “Since Madam can create the cleaning paper of the people, you must have a way to create cheap writing paper!”

Bai Wutong did have a way, but this era had paper making techniques. Since Yang Quanzi wanted to use cheap writing paper to benefit the people, she said, “I don’t think I can do it. You can try it yourself.”

Paper was not what the people lacked the most now. It would not affect anything if it was made a few days later.

She didn’t want everyone to form a habit of dependence on her. Besides, if they created too many of the modern inventions, it would be easy to give herself away. It would be troublesome if others started to investigate her.

If it weren’t for the fact that she had obtained Yang Quanzi’s ‘Book of Hundred Industries’ and could use the paper-making technique inside as an excuse, she had even thought of buying cotton cloth to use for toilet.

Yang Quanzi did not expect Bai Wutong to reject him outright and let him do it himself.

Yang Quanzi’s expression froze. After a long while, he said, “I’ll do my best.”

Madam Bai could even create clean paper based on his ‘Book of Hundred Industries’. There was no reason for him, the book editor, to be afraid of not being able to produce cheap writing paper!

Hearing Yang Quanzi’s declaration, everyone cheered. “Teacher will definitely succeed!”

Yang Quanzi smiled awkwardly. He really couldn’t promise anything.

Xu Zhiyi could tell that Yang Quanzi was feeling uncertain. He stood up and said in support, “Teacher, I’ve been to the paper workshop with you to observe. I’ll help you make writing paper too.”

Yang Quanzi immediately raised his hand emotionally and patted Xu Zhiyi’s shoulder. He said happily, “Good disciple, let’s study it carefully. If there’s anything you don’t understand, go and ask Madam Bai how to use these machines!”

It was obvious that he wanted to ask for guidance. Xu Zhiyi hid a smile in the depths of his eyes and said to Bai Wutong, “Madam Bai, please forgive me if I have to disturb you in the future.”

Bai Wutong waved her hand and took the opportunity to emphasize again, “It’s all thanks to your Book of Hundred Industries that I was able to research on the cleaning paper. Although I can’t make cheap writing paper, I will definitely answer everything about paper machines and cleaning paper. Mr. Xu, you don’t have to be polite.”

Yang Quanzi secretly felt that it was a pity. If Xu Zhiyi had been smart and suggested that Bai Wutong research on it together with him, he might have been able to produce cheap writing paper in a few days.
