"Yes, Master."
Wu Daozi hurried to his feet to fetch paper and pens from inside, but Matchmaker spoke up just then.
"Lin Ke, are you planning to record everything with paper and pens every time?" Matchmaker was rather speechless. "How slow would that be?"
"Huh?" Lin Ke was puzzled too. "That's slow?"
When he had used the Power of Reform to write books before, he had practically been a printer!
And that was slow?
"Don't tell me you don't know about the communication items of the Confucian, Daoist, and Buddhist schools?" Matchmaker gave Lin Ke an exasperated look. "They're expensive, sure, but you're hardly short of money now."
"Communication items?" Lin Ke immediately thought of things he often saw people using.
Young masters and young ladies from wealthy families often wrote and drew in books to communicate with people far away.
So those were communication items?
Lin Ke's mind immediately sprang into action. "How much do those things cost?"
"About twenty taels of silver each." Matchmaker smiled. "The tricky part is that the maker has to be at the level of a Fifth Realm Great Confucian. Even the Fourth Realm falls a little short. It's very difficult for them to make one."
So that was it. This required skilled labor?
"A Great Confucian, huh..." Lin Ke instantly thought of his teachers.
Come to think of it, so many of my teachers are in the Fourth Realm. Aren't there too few in the Fifth Realm?
As for his disciples?
Forget it. They weren't even worth considering.
Rather than hoping one's son would become a dragon, it was better to hope one's father would become a dragon.
Or, in this case, one's teacher.
Just then, a voice came from far away. "I'm back! Lin Ke, I've bought your treasures for you too!"
