That evening, Fan Zeng submitted his daily observations to the prince's residence. After reading them, Xiao Ming became even more certain of the current situation. The village elders, often the most respected figures in their communities, were typically elected as village heads.

"Paper? That’s right. With this printing technology, we’ll also need paper. I believe Your Highness already has a plan in mind." Compared to lathes and hydraulic hammers, printing and paper-making were relatively simpler. Xiao Ming said, "What you see here is prepared for the paper-making and printing workshops." As he spoke, Xiao Ming led Pang Yukun to see the pulp beaters and pressure screens used for paper-making. With these tools, the efficiency of the paper-making workshop would be greatly…

Prince Wei stepped out of the sedan chair and gave Xiao Ming a hug, vigorously patting his back with his right hand. "Cough, cough." Xiao Ming nearly coughed up blood from the force of Prince Wei’s pats. The sheer weight and momentum of this three-hundred-pound man were no joke.
