Chapter 237 Having Your Own Channel
If there was something, there would be a note or a letter left on the table in the warehouse. She would know it was Bai Tao who said it.

In the past, we would place an order form or application form when there was a shortage of goods, but this is the first time we have placed a letter like this.

Bai Tao was speechless after reading it: "..."

If she remembered correctly, she had only been out for less than a day.

If you don’t know, you would think she has been gone for ten days or half a month.

Also, that chubby baby Hu Niu is less than seven months old, why is she called auntie?

It must be difficult for her to call dad and mom. Think of her as a three-year-old child. Doesn't she have any common sense?
Thinking about how the villagers looked hesitant and reluctant when she came out, Bai Tao sighed.

"Xiao Cao, come here."

Bai Xiaocao was laying out the mat. When she heard this, she hurried over and said, "Auntie, do you have any instructions?"

"Bring me some paper and pen and write a letter to the village."

"Okay, great aunt."

Tao Jiaren, who was not far away, probably heard this and immediately walked to the open space a few meters away and whistled towards the sky.

When they set out, Bai Tao vaguely caught a glimpse of a Saker Falcon in the sky and thought it was passing by in search of food, but she didn't expect it to be Tao Jiaren's.

"Sister Tao, you actually have a Saker Falcon, that's amazing."

When Tao Jiaren heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "It's okay, it's nothing."

"Little cutie, do you like it? Otherwise, I'll give you one."

"No, no, no, I'll forget it." Bai Tao waved her hands quickly.

The Saker Falcon is small in size but very strong, with keen vision and strong flying ability, enabling it to hunt at high altitudes.

Its hunting behavior is swift and efficient, and it is good at using its small size to defeat larger prey, hence the name "God of Ten Thousand Eagles".

It is not easy to get a Saker Falcon that is obedient and submissive to its owner. It is necessary to tame it, and Bai Tao knows that one of the conditions for taming it is to keep the falcon awake.

If she doesn't sleep for ten hours a day, she is considered a night owl. How could she possibly stay up all night?

Although if Tao Jiaren gave it to her, it would most likely be well-trained, but it would be troublesome to deal with this thing, so she gave up.

Seeing that Bai Tao was really not interested, Tao Jiaren didn't say anything.

"You want to deliver a letter to the village. It's just right. My little black flyer is fast and will be there in no time..."

Bai Tao suddenly realized what was going on, but she shook her head: "That's not necessary."

"Sister Tao, we have our own channels for delivering letters." No matter how fast it was, it wouldn't be as fast as her putting it in the warehouse.

She knew without thinking that the villagers must have sent people to guard the warehouse, and would peek in every now and then to wait for a reply.

Bai Tao smiled shyly: "Besides, the villagers don't know there will be a Saker Falcon delivering the letter, so I'm afraid they won't be able to receive it."

When Tao Jiaren heard this, she said, "That's right." Then she raised her arm and sent the Saker Falcon that had just landed back into the sky.

Hai Dongqing: ??? So, why did you call me down? You didn’t even give me a bite to eat.

Bai Qi had already brought paper and pen, spread out the letter paper, and looked at Bai Tao seriously: "Auntie, what do you want to write?"

"Well...just write it."

After a pause, Bai Tao continued: "I'm fine! I've had my meal. I had honey-barbecued meat, and I feel fine... I'm wearing warm clothes, so I'm not cold... don't worry." Hearing this, Tao Jiaren was dumbfounded. What?
Isn't this just family affairs? !

She thought there was something important that he forgot to say, but she didn't expect the conversation to be like this.

No, even in family letters, I don’t think I’ve ever heard of such a thing.

This really opened Tao Jiaren's eyes.

Probably noticing Tao Jiaren's gaze, Bai Tao followed her line of sight, spread her hands, and said confidently and helplessly: "There's nothing I can do. The younger generation at home are too clingy."

If this was said by an old woman or an old man with white hair, it wouldn't matter.

The key point is that Bai Tao is just a five-year-old baby, speaking in a baby voice and looking helpless. This cute and funny look instantly made Tao Jiaren burst out laughing.

Tao Jiaren smiled and nodded in agreement to show her understanding: "Yes, yes, that's how clingy youngsters are."

Glancing at the paper Bai Xiaocao was using, Tao Jiaren put away her smile and said seriously, "My dear, you must pay close attention to the recipe for this paper."

Although the people of Taohua Village respected and loved Bai Tao very much, Tao Jiaren still reminded them: "For safety reasons, it is best not to let one person master the whole process from beginning to end, but to divide it among several people to each master a part."

When Bai Tao heard this, she also looked towards Bai Xiaocao, smiled at Tao Jiaren again, and said honestly: "Don't be afraid of that. In fact, I don't know the recipe either."

Are you kidding? She just buys the goods from the mall, she has no right to care about the production.

There are so many worlds, besides Blue Star, there are other worlds, and in the world with highly developed technology, things like paper are cheaper.

When Bai Tao went traveling before, she made some straw paper using elephant poop, but she had long forgotten the steps.

Bai Tao told the truth, but Tao Jiaren thought she was trying to cover it up. Although she felt that this statement would not convince people outside, Tao Jiaren just nodded and said, "It's better to be careful."

"Yeah, thank you Sister Tao."

Tao Jiaren sighed: "Although you have done something that is of great benefit to the world, it has cut off the financial resources of some people, and there are many people who are jealous."

Speaking of this, Bai Tao coughed twice guiltily. Could she say that despite the seemingly cheap prices, she actually made a lot of money?

Hearing Bai Tao cough twice, Bai Qi climbed onto the carriage and made some honey water.

"Auntie, drink some honey water to moisten your throat."

Bai Tao took it, took two sips, curled up the corners of her mouth, and a cute and soft smile appeared on her face again.

Things like paper are expensive only in worlds with backward manufacturing technology and monopoly. She picks and chooses to buy from other worlds. It is really not expensive, and the larger the quantity, the better the price.

The reason why books were expensive in ancient times was that the noble families controlled the channels of knowledge and culture. After all, only ignorant people could control them, and it would not have any impact on their status.

Secondly, paper is too expensive, and reading and writing are the most paper-consuming activities.

For an ordinary family to support a child who is studying, the cost is huge, comparable to emptying six wallets in modern times just to make a down payment for a house.

In the State of Jin, fifty sheets of yellow paper cost two hundred coins. Not only was the paper yellow and rough, but it was also not big.

Not only is better paper more expensive, but it’s also available in smaller quantities. If you want to buy it, you can’t just have money; you also have to beg for favors and find connections.

But Bai Tao's series of actions broke this balance.

Therefore, as soon as Baijiabao Zizai Bookstore opened, it attracted a crowd of people.

Unlike other food, grain, cloth shops, etc., most of the people who gathered around Zizai Bookstore were scholars, or had scholars at home.

I'll update one chapter first, there will be more later.
