Wasn't Main an adult in her original world? It's kind of amazing how witless she sometimes (very often) is and how she really can't see her own benefit pretty much ever. She dreams of books and libraries in a world where books are extremely expensive, yet she has zero interest in making money, despite money having already saved her life. Like what the heck was her argument with Benno even supposed to be about? How is she going to spread books around if not by selling them, huh? She needs capital, capital, and more capital.

To really put books on everybody's tables and fill public libraries and bookstores with them, she also needs get her paper making a couple of gears higher. She needs to set her sights on proper water powered paper mills. For that she absolutely needs her own riches because nobody's going to lend an ear to her strange talks. She understands nothing of this, though, surprisingly enough.
