"Do you mainly use bark to make paper?" Lu Ke timely changed the topic, so her ears wouldn't stay red for too long.
"Yeah, mainly some plant fibers, you smash them, soak and soften, then boil and finally dry them, it takes quite a bit of time. Let's make a small amount of paper first to see how it goes." Xu Yi explained simply because once they started making it, Lu Ke would understand the process.
"It's quite troublesome," Lu Ke stuck out her tongue, surprised at how complicated paper making was.
8 days, is the time really enough?
"After all, it's one of the four great inventions. It's not easy to just mess around and come up with it." Xu Yi grinned. If they used modern techniques, it would be simple. But they could only rely on traditional methods.
Anyway, they didn't need to make fine white paper, just some rough toilet paper, so it would be easier.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been in Xu Yi's plan.
