Chapter 915： What's the use of this?

In their thoughts, they had been allowed to kneel here for nearly half an hour, which was already the punishment for them by King You.

Or in other words, they have no power over them.

This kind of dismounting is actually very useful for these veterans.

If these people dare to show a little bit of dissatisfaction, I am afraid this will be seized by the new king and punished even more severely.

Otherwise, after passing this level, it is time for the new king to take office.

However, they also knew in their hearts that this matter would probably not happen again after this time.

At the same time, they are also secretly guessing that today's punishment has been punished, but the next sweet dates should always be given to themselves.

At the very least, these individuals have shown obedience to the new king on the surface, showing that they have no complaints. At this time, this guy should find a way to compensate him and these people.

Only in this way can you be king by giving both kindness and power. Knowing that only in this way can you convince yourself, these individuals, by giving both kindness and kindness.

Of course, these are all their wishful thinking, and they are also guesses in their own hearts, not on behalf of Lin Yi, nor on behalf of Lin Yi will do this next.

However, just as they were thinking about what kind of excuse Lin Yi would use to give them some compensation, suddenly, Lin Yi above spoke up.

And the words that were spoken made all of them stunned. You look at me and I look at you, but I don't even understand what Lin Yi means.

"These six ministers and two prime ministers of mine have worked hard for so many years, and today I will paint their portraits. That's right, I asked you to come here, not to paint me portraits, but to paint these important ministers each. a picture."

This was obviously addressed to everyone present. After saying this, he turned his gaze to the group of painters beside him, and said in a very serious tone:

"This group of old officials can be said to have high prestige in Dayou Kingdom, and they have also worked hard for so many years.

After I took the position this time, I deeply knew that their difficulties were not easy.

That's why I recruited you today to make portraits for them. You must use all your housekeeping skills and do your best. Go and picture them.

If I feel dissatisfied, then don't blame me for being rude. "

After saying this, the painters immediately fell to their knees with a thud, and at the same time said that they must do everything they have learned, and try their best to paint pictures for everyone.

After seeing such a situation, Lin Yi nodded with satisfaction, then waved his hand, and suddenly a neat stack of white paper appeared on several of his cases.

At the same time, he opened his mouth and said to Xiao Chen Zi who was beside him:

"Go and send them all these pieces of paper, two for each person. These pieces of paper are for everyone's portraits."

It can be said that Lin Yi's hand changed things out of thin air, and it can be said that every time he was able to shock everyone present.

This time was no exception. Whether it was the painters or the ministers they had seen before, they were all shocked. At the same time, when they looked at the pile of white things, they were all dumbfounded.

At the same time, they also know one thing, that is, this thing was originally called paper.

Not only that, but the things I took out this time, the ones I took out, can only be said to be much better than the ones I took out before. Why do you say that? Because this thing looks flawless.

Even the white ones made their appetites wide open. They really wanted to go up and take a bite and taste what this thing was like.

And after hearing Lin Yi's order, Xiao Chenzi immediately walked down with this set of things, came to the middle of the painters, and distributed all these papers.

And looking at those painters, all of them were really stunned on the spot at this moment.

Looking at the white and flawless paper in their hands, they didn't understand what it was for a while, because they had never seen such a thing before. After all, it just doesn't exist in today's society, let alone this A kind of white and flawless paper, even those grass papers, that do not exist.

They looked up and down for a while, but they didn't understand what this thing was.

And the scenes on their side were also captured by Lin Yi, but he didn't intend to embarrass this group of painters. After all, these individuals were no threat to him, nor did they cause any harm.

Not only for him, but also for the entire Dayou Nation, and there is no harm in the slightest.

They neither harm the village nor do any wrongdoing, but rely on their own craftsmanship to eat. Therefore, Lin Yi is very concerned about these craftsmen.

So, he looked at everyone, and explained in a faint tone:

"This thing is called paper. It can be used to write on it, and it can also be used to draw on it. Does it function like bamboo slips or animal skins, but its material is better than theirs? Of course, that doesn't mean it's tougher than fur. On the contrary, he's very fragile. You can pierce it with a single rub."

When it came to this, Lin Yi even directly touched on his own cases.

A piece of paper came, and then reached out and rubbed it gently, and immediately poked a hole in the paper.

Not only that, when he tore it at will, he heard a thorn.

Looking at the piece of paper in his hand, it had been torn into two pieces. This scene directly shocked everyone below.

Afterwards, they all stared at the two pieces of paper in Lin Yi's hands. For a moment, there was only one thought in their minds, that this thing is so fragile, it seems that this thing can't be used much.

Not only the group of ministers thought this way, but the painters also thought the same way, staring at the rice paper one by one, frowning for a while.

In their hearts, they muttered to themselves, although this thing looks white and clean, it is really not very useful. It is such a fragile thing, regardless of whether it can be better painted on it.

Speaking of this thing alone, even when it is painted and used to save it, it is not easy.

It will be torn off accidentally, so what is recorded or painted on it will also be damaged?

【. . . . 】

For a while, these painters frowned when they looked at the paper.

In their hearts, at this time, a big wrong number has been drawn to this thing.

In other words, this thing is already useless in their eyes.

After all, although this thing looks white and flawless, the effect of painting on it will be much better.

But this Achilles heel is that its toughness is not enough.

In this way, if you really paint on it, then that means it is very likely that it will be destroyed just after painting.

In this way, isn't it just a waste of your own effort?

Doesn't it mean that no matter how hard you try, you may not be there in the next moment.

This is something that every artist is unwilling to do.

After all, no matter what, every time they draw a picture, it is their hard work. After all, in their eyes, this painting is their job and their spiritual support.

However, at this moment, Lin Yi's voice spoke again:

"Of course, although this thing has shortcomings and is very fragile, it is difficult to hide its advantages, that is, if this kind of thing is used for painting, it is easier to describe and collect.

Compared with those precious silk rolls, the cost of this thing will be lower. Compared with those bulky bamboo slips, this thing is much lighter in weight, and the lines that can be drawn on this kind of paper are also very beautiful. It is also irreplaceable by those rolled cloths and bamboo slips. "

"Everyone can try it first and see how it works.

As for whether he can keep it for a long time and whether it can be broken, this is not something that everyone here needs to consider, because if you treat her with care, she will not break it.

Also, if he hangs his painted portrait on the wall and no one pays attention to him, how could he ever break it? "

As soon as these words were said, everyone immediately thought again.

At the same time, I also feel that this statement is reasonable, just like if it is painted, who will tear it up for no reason?

Or who would poke a hole for him for no reason?

Especially when Lin Yi said that this thing is cheaper than silk, the hearts of these painters began to liven up.

After all, they have to draw a lot of pictures every day. This does not mean that they can stay when they don’t give people pictures, because they have to practice their painting skills and use various kinds of paintings every day. materials for painting.

As a result, their demand for expensive materials like bamboo slips is somewhat stretched. After all, the royal family will not supply them with materials unconditionally.

But now, when they looked at the paper in their hands, they all began to become more active.

There are even a few people who are already eager to try it. If this thing can really be as said on the Internet, then they will definitely like this kind of thing very much, so some of them immediately spoke up:

"Report to the emperor, I am willing to give it a try first."

Seeing someone jumped out and spoke first, everyone's eyes turned to him, and at the same time to Lin Yi.

After seeing this, Lin Yi nodded with satisfaction, then waved his hand and said:

"Go give it a try. If you can find another piece of wood and put it under it, the effect of drawing will be better."

After a while, someone brought a special board. This board was used by these painters when they used to draw things. Of course, it was used to fix things like silk or fur before.

But now, after putting this white paper on it, the feeling is immediately different.

It made all these painters shine, and the painting effect on such a white thing must be very perfect.

Sure enough, when the painter picked up the brush and began to draw the first strokes against one of the ministers, the effect was immediately apparent.

The black ink was immediately presented on the top, especially the contrast of black and white, which made the color of the ink more vivid.

As a result, the eyes of all the painters suddenly lit up, and one by one, their hands started to itch.

Especially after watching this person draw a few strokes, everyone couldn't hold it any longer, and they all asked Lin Yi to start painting now.

Lin Yi naturally agreed with this matter.

As a result, within a short time, a strange picture began to appear in the entire government hall.

That is, more than a dozen painters are painting portraits of these eight important officials.

The rest of the people next to him were full of envy.

Looking at the eight people in the scene one by one, everyone was thinking, why is it not themselves sitting there, didn't they see that the old guys were already smug at this time?

In the hearts of these old guys, this is the sweet date that the new king gave them.

This is why he wants to use this trick to tell himself that he is very concerned about and attaches great importance to these people. A slap just now, a sweet date now, this is a really good plan.

I didn't expect this new guy to be so proficient in being the king

. To have such a means, this group of old fellows also have some fluffy feeling in their hearts, in addition to joy, after all, it should not be easy to see this guy.

However, no matter whether he is simple or not, but now that he has brought sweet dates to these people, it means that they have to rely on them.

That's enough.

At least the power in the hands of these people will not be affected in the slightest.

In this way, if you let these people continue to operate for a few years, are you afraid that the power in your hands will not be further deepened?

Waiting for a suitable opportunity, I can't say that I will kick this guy down, and if I gain the upper hand, it means that I will reach the sky in one step.

Under such an atmosphere, nearly an hour passed.

Just when Lin Yi took another nap, the painter who was the first to stand up and start painting had already gently put down the brush in his hand, and at the same time looked at the just painted portrait of the dress in front of him, and couldn't help but click with satisfaction. He nodded, and his eyes were full of joy.

He never imagined that this effect would be more perfect than he imagined.

Not only that, but at this moment, look at this portrait again.
