Chapter 223 (1/2)
Papermaking is no longer a mysterious process in this era. The paper industry in Europe is now very developed.
In fact, the raw materials, technology, additives and other things of papermaking are already relatively transparent.
Shi Xiong has never made paper in his previous life. He only knows the process of papermaking and the ratio of raw materials and additives. These things are what he learned on the Internet.
In his previous life, Shi Xiong once traveled to his hometown with a colleague of his unit. His hometown was far away from Bagui.
That colleague's experience is similar to that of Shi Xiong. He was born in a poor and backward mountain village, and then entered the university through his own efforts, and finally entered the museum.
Moreover, compared with the hometown of stone bear, although the scenery of that colleague's hometown is more beautiful, the economy is far behind. After all, the mountain villages in Bagui were far from being comparable to those in developed provinces at that time.
The neighbor of the colleague's hometown made his own paper, using the local rich Danzhu as raw material. Of course, the paper made by this kind of small workshop can not enter the market of big cities. Most of the paper made by others is yellow paper, which can be sold in the local rural towns.
At that time, Shi Xiong was very interested in the small paper mill. He even operated it with the owner himself. Later, when he came back, he learned more about papermaking technology and process on the Internet.
Thanks to stone bear's good memory, he still remembers papermaking.
And to the surprise of the stone bear, David Dean volunteered to help the stone bear make paper when he learned that the leader was going to make paper. Because this guy can make paper.
Well, it's not paper-making like stone bear. It's true that David Addison has done the work of paper-making.
Although David Addison's family is a declining aristocrat, there is nothing left in his family. Compared with brother Gai's family, the family background of the same declining aristocracy is much better than that of brother Gai.
At least, the adian family also has a small paper mill, which is the same size as the manual paper mill that stone bears have seen.
”Boss, you are good at other things, but if it comes to papermaking, I think I am better than you!” David adian looked at the people who were digging under the command of the stone bear and said to the stone bear with a smile.
”You can die if you don't brag?” Stone bear squint at this now more and more dilapidated guy, directly spray a sentence.
David Addison was not upset, and continued to say with a smiley face, ”chief, what I said is true. I just told you that there is a paper mill in my family. When I was young, I helped a lot in the paper mill. I know a lot about papermaking.”
”You're done with that?” Shi Xiong didn't directly agree with this guy, but asked him what he was going to do now.
”No Adien shook his head and said, ”but the work is now led by Kuaima. Not to mention, the young man Kuaima has a bright future. I think we should cultivate him well and he can replace me in the future. ”
David Addison's main job now is to smelt lead and tin from the excavated ore. Lead and tin are two of the first seven nonferrous metals discovered by human beings, and they have been used for a long time.
Just like ancient Chinese bronzes, they are actually alloys of copper, lead and tin.
