"The output has reached the expected standard. What's wrong?" Lin Hong frowned and asked in confusion. "Well, build a few more papermaking workshops. At the same time, reduce the amount of goods purchased from the demons and increase the purchase of goods from other races to maintain the supply and demand balance between goods of different races." Jiang Yu said seriously after pondering for a moment. "I understand the subsequent adjustment strategies. Reducing demon products and increasing products from other races is to maintain market diversity and stability... But why do we need to build more papermaking workshops?" Lin Hong still seemed very confused. There was confusion in his eyes. Currently, there was a papermaking workshop in each of Jiang Yu's two territories. The two existing workshops are sufficient to supply the needs within the territory. "I plan to sell the paper to other territories or even further away." Jiang Yu's answer was beyond Lin Hong's expectations. He directly pointed out the real intention of expanding production. "For now, as long as we can further reduce the production cost of paper, then compared with the expensive and inconvenient writing tools used by the gods and demons, our paper will have a very large market competitive advantage." "So that's how it is..." Lin Hong suddenly understood after hearing this. Although he still didn't quite understand what specific large-scale business layout Jiang Yu was planning, he could more or less understand the logic behind Jiang Yu's approach - taking advantage of cost advantages, expanding production, opening up markets, and enhancing the economic strength of the territory. But what Lin Hong didn't know was. Jiang Yu actually had a more far-reaching plan in mind - to launch a silent cultural invasion of other territories.

Paper, as the crystallization of human wisdom and a great invention, has seen a significant drop in production costs since Cai Lun improved the papermaking technique. This has made the widespread circulation of paper possible and laid a material foundation for Jiang Yu's plan. And this is just the first step. As a carrier of information, once paper circulates in other territories, the words written on the paper and the ideas conveyed will also be spread there. In this way, over time, paper and the culture it carries will gradually penetrate into other territories and become a subtle means of cultural invasion. In the territories of other major clans, the writing tools and recording methods they used were different, but there was a common problem: it was very troublesome to read. In contrast, human writing can be clearly seen by simply unfolding the paper. As for those big clans, because they rely on divine power or magic power to write, not only do they consume a lot of divine power or magic power every time they write, but they also need to use divine power or magic power to stimulate each time they look up something. The steps are cumbersome and complicated, and it is far less concise and easy to use than paper. What's more, paper is cheap, which makes Jiang Yu full of confidence in his plan. He believed that with these advantages of paper, it would be easy to open up markets in other territories and promote paper and the culture it carried to a broader world. As a result, Jiang Yu's territory began to invest heavily in production, and paper soon became a basic tool for circulation in the territory. In Jiang Yu's territory, the circulation of paper quickly brought about many changes, and several specific examples vividly demonstrated the impact of this change. Huang Zhiyuan said to Lin Hong very happily: "I finally have a novel to read!" "In the past, we had to use bamboo slips to read, which were heavy and difficult to turn. It was exhausting. Now, with these light papers, at least we can still read." Qin Siling, who was working diligently in the territory, also smiled for the first time in a long time: "It would be great if there was movable type printing, so that we could copy and spread knowledge faster, without having to copy it word by word like we do now." "But even so, these papers have greatly reduced my workload." "It's a pity that the mobile phone can't connect to the Internet. Why can't we sell mobile phones here?" Miao Qingqing said helplessly. "You're talking nonsense. Other races' territories don't have things like base stations. What's the point of them buying them?" Conversations like these happen all the time. Meanwhile, as time goes by. The takeaway papers from Jiang Yu’s territory also began to circulate to other territories.

…… In Moya's territory. At this time, Moye was riding a huge magical beast that was emitting a faint blue light. He was dressed in full dress and had countless guards around him, who were slowly patrolling his vast territory. It has to be said that the demon territory is indeed very different from that of other races. Everything here reveals a mysterious and powerful sense of power. If you look down at the demon territory of Moye from a high place, you can see a towering black castle located in the center of the territory. The walls of the castle were engraved with intricate magic runes, flashing with a dark red light, as if they could release powerful magical powers at any time. Surrounding the castle are various buildings and urban areas of the territory. Outside, there are dense black forests. The branches and leaves of the trees are like sharp blades, flashing faint green light, giving people a chilling feeling. In the depths of this forest, there are all kinds of strange monsters hidden. They roar or growl, adding a bit of mystery and danger to this territory. In the urban area of ​​the territory, Moya was patrolling his territory. As the demon lord, his appearance is also different from others. He was tall, with skin that was a deep dark purple, and eyes that were like burning flames, revealing a sense of majesty and power. He has a pair of sharp devil horns on his head and a long tail behind him. At the end of the tail is burning with blazing devil fire, as if it is a symbol of his power. Moye looked around. His demon residents all live in houses constructed with magic power. These houses have different shapes, some are like spires, and some are like giant mushrooms, but they all emit a faint magical light, protecting the demons living in them from outside intrusion. The diet of the demons is also unique. They do not eat ordinary food, but rely on absorbing magic power to sustain life. In a corner of the territory, there is a special source of magic power. The demons will go there regularly to absorb magic power through specific rituals to meet their survival needs. In daily life, the demons attach great importance to the practice of magic. They will learn various magical skills in specialized magic academies, ranging from basic magic theory to advanced magic applications. In the library of the academy, there are a large number of magic books, recording the magical knowledge accumulated by the demons over thousands of years. In addition to practicing magic, the demons also have a variety of entertainment activities. (End of this chapter)
