Chapter 629: I'm out of breath
A few days later, in the morning!
Robb had just been lazy on his stone stool, eating bread and drinking sweet soybean milk when he saw Marian Corton come over angrily and sit on another stone stool opposite the stone table. She took out her abacus and began to beat it.
Seeing her strange look, Robb couldn't help but ask, "Marian, what's wrong with you? Why are you angry so the early morning?"Nnêw n0vel chapters are published at novelhall.com
Marian didn't want to talk to Robb. She rolled her eyes at Robb and continued to calculate.
It was fun!
Although Robb was not a man with a steel heart, he was a little emotionally intelligent. However, no matter how intelligent he was, he couldn't figure out what the woman was thinking. He just didn't say anything and waited for Marian to tell him by herself. Anyway, a woman would definitely tell him why she was angry after being angry for a while.
Sure enough, after a long time, Marian finally spoke. She said pitifully, "Godfather, are you going to abandon our family? "
"What?" Robb asked, "how did you come up with this idea?"
Marian said, "after that female rabbit came, youll choose her over us. You don't like me anymore. I'm also a daughter of a businessman. Originally, you only taught me how to calculate by myself, but I didn't expect that you also taught that female rabbit how to calculate."
Robb, "how can I teach her to use calculations?"
"You did though." Marian said pitifully, "when I saw her calculating the construction cost of the paper workshop and paying the workers, she took out an abacus and used it. It was faster than mine."
Robb had no choice but to shrug and said, "Hey, don't think too much. I didn't teach her. She is good at calculating. Every merchant in the East knows how to calculate. In fact, the calculations I taught you were learned from the East."
"What?" Marian was shocked. "Did you learn it from the rabbit folk?"
The elf elder ran to Robb and wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he found that his breath was uneven and he couldn't speak at all. He had to take a few deep breaths. The elf archers who followed him quickly patted his back. After a long time, the elf elder returned to normal, Then he turned to Robb and said, "Great Druid, I heard that you have established a new paper workshop in the south of the town in a joint venture with a rabbit folk. You want to make eastern paper."
"Wow," Robb laughed. "The news came so slow. People in the city have already known it long ago. Why didn't you hear it until now?"
"I've been buried in writing movie scripts in the tree house on the mountain recently, so I didn't notice anything new in the city," the old man explained. Then he quickly turned to the main topic. "I heard that the rabbit folk are in the city. They said that eastern paper is very cheap, not as expensive as parchment. Even ordinary people can afford it. Is that true?"
Robb smiled and said, "of course it's true! I invested in the construction of the paper workshop. The rabbits are just technology shareholders. Do you think what I'm involved are traps?"
That's true, the word Godfather was a golden signboard in Westwind Town, Godfather was widely acknowledged as he never extorted money from the townsmen, but only brought them all kinds of convenience to them.
It had been a long time since the elf elder came to Westwind town. He had already known this point, so of course he had no doubt about him.
"If there is really a piece of paper at a low price, it will be the blessing of literature." the elf elder was overjoyed. "This will make novels and poems spread more widely. Everyone can afford to buy books. This is the blessing of literature!"
The old man was so happy that his whole body was trembling. Robb hurriedly helped him to prevent him from falling down because of excitement. It would be bad if his bones were broken. "You are quite insightful in this respect. The appearance of low-price paper can indeed push the development of the cultural industry. Of course, literature is one of them. I'm looking forward to seeing you them."
The elf elder was as happy as a child. "I want to visit the paper workshop, can I?"
"Well..."
In fact, it was very important to keep the secret of the technology. Letting others visit the paper workshop was equivalent to letting the technology flow out. Robb hesitated for a moment, but on second thought, he didn't care about it anymore. He would just let the technology flow outs. Anyway, this technology had already been spread in the East. It was meaningless to keep it a secret. Moreover, the spread of this technology was good for the whole world, so it didn't matter if he didn't make money in this respect.
