Chapter 390 Printing
Seeing everyone's reaction, Lin Baiyan felt a warmth in his heart, and he raised his hand and pressed it down.
Seeing his actions, the noise gradually subsided.
Lin Baiyan curled the corners of his lips, "Don't worry, everyone, I have a plan."
According to Lin Baiyan's rough estimate, he has stored at least fifty catties of animal honey over the past few days.
Honey can be stored for many years under low temperature conditions, and with continuous production, Lin Baiyan certainly has the right to say such a thing.
"Alright, everyone, that's enough. You all need to study hard for the next three months and try to earn some wealth for yourselves." Lin Baiyan waved his hand, thus finalizing the matter.
Seeing him like this, the orcs had no choice but to swallow their words of advice. However, once they came to their senses, the light on each orc's face was undisguised. It was genuine orc honey, and the temptation was simply too great for them.
It has to be said that Lin Baiyan truly has a firm grasp on the thoughts of the beastmen.
Before this, if they had some thoughts of just getting by and learning casually, after Lin Baiyan threw out this huge pie of beast honey, no one would resist taking a bite.
If I could really break into the top twenty, I could get so many supplies!
However, some people had doubts, "High Priest, do you mean the first twenty share five catties of animal honey equally?"
Lin Baiyan's solemn expression slowly faded, and he rolled his eyes in annoyance. "Otherwise, what else do you want?"
If each person divides it equally, five catties of animal honey will amount to about half a catty when divided among twenty people, which is still a considerable amount.
The orc chuckled and scratched his head. "Nothing, nothing, I was just asking."
"Alright, that concludes today's meeting. Everyone, please go about your business." Lin Baiyan waved his hand, and the crowd in the central square gradually dispersed.
At this moment, Hu Jiang walked against the crowd toward Lin Baiyan.
Lin Baiyan and the elders had just stepped off the altar when they saw him. A strange look flashed in his eyes.
"How was it? Did it succeed?"
Fox River nodded heavily upon hearing this, "That's right, High Priest, the paper mill has already figured out movable type printing!"
Lin Baiyan's eyes lit up with immense joy, "That's wonderful!"
"Come on, let's go take a look!"
He had barely finished speaking when he turned to leave. Then, as if remembering something, he turned back to the elders and said, "Uncle Tu Lin, Grandpa Hu Kuo, the paper mill has developed movable type printing. Would you like to go and take a look?"
Hu Kuo was puzzled when he heard this. What was that? However, seeing Lin Baiyan's anxious expression, he wisely refrained from asking.
The group exchanged a glance and nodded firmly. "Go!"
Bai Yan must have come up with something good again!
The group of people hurried toward the factory.
The factory is now divided into five departments: pottery, blacksmithing, carpentry, weapons, and now papermaking is the fifth department.
The company commander of the Third Company was Hu Jiang, and each department was divided into five ministers. Hu Jiang had also heard this from Hu Fang, the minister of the papermaking department.
He rushed over as soon as he received the news, just in time to hear Lin Baiyan announce that he would be studying the Wanshou Law.
When the group arrived at the papermaking department, Hu Fang was already waiting at the entrance. Upon seeing them, Hu Fang quickly went to greet them. The tall, male orc smiled and nodded at Lin Baiyan, "High Priest, you've arrived."
However, to his surprise, it wasn't just Lin Baiyan who came; several elders also showed up!
He nodded to the few beastmen of the Silver Fox Clan. Since Hu Fang came from the Silver Fox Clan, he naturally felt somewhat close to them.
Lin Baiyan waved his hand and got straight to the point, "I heard you've figured out movable type printing?"
Fox Fang's lips curled into a broad smile. "That's right, I've finally lived up to the High Priest's expectations."
After three or four months of research, I can finally hand in my work.
When Lin Baiyan first started writing the Laws of All Beasts, he had already considered the complexity of the laws, as ordinary beastmen would definitely find it difficult to remember so many laws.
If everyone could have a copy of the Law of All Beasts, like a handbook from a previous civilization, then its implementation would certainly be much smoother.
But it's easier said than done. After he finished compiling the book on the Laws of Ten Thousand Beasts, he still had to copy it himself. It took him five whole days to copy these few books on the Laws of Ten Thousand Beasts!
In this way, movable type printing became an urgent necessity.
Fortunately, he had the foresight to have his people begin studying printing technology ahead of time.
This is truly icing on the cake; he had just promulgated the Law of All Beasts, and now good news has also come from the Papermaking Department.
"Let's go, take me to see it quickly."
Fox Fang quickly nodded and led them into the papermaking department's work area.
The moment Lin Baiyan stepped into the courtyard, he quickly surveyed the scene. Some of the beastmen were hammering tree bark with stone mallets, while others were peeling paper from paper-making frames. Everyone was doing their job, and the courtyard was clean and orderly, with each process proceeding smoothly.
Upon discovering the high priest and several elders, no one rushed to greet them. Instead, they simply nodded slightly to them and continued with their work.
Lin Baiyan nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that Minister Hu Fang had done a good job.
After passing through the front yard and entering the back yard, which was relatively small, several orcs were gathered together. One of them was rolling a roller on a stone slab.
Lin Baiyan quietly approached him and subtly gestured to the orc beside him. Everyone remained silent in perfect unison.
The orcs, who were rolling the wheel, were extremely focused. When they felt they had done enough, they put down the wheel and gently lifted the paper on the stone slab, revealing a simple Three Character Classic.
Lin Baiyan's eyes lit up. The layout was neat and orderly, and the handwriting was clear and upright. Although it was slightly immature, it already showed great style. You could tell at a glance that the writer had put in a lot of effort to practice calligraphy.
He couldn't help but blurt out the compliment, "Your handwriting is excellent!"
The orc was startled by the sudden sound, his hand trembled, and the paper was about to fall to the ground.
Lin Baiyan quickly caught it and handed it back apologetically, "Sorry, I startled you."
