B. Is the closing answer I can come up with. Early chinese paper was made from the bark of the mulberry tree. The bark fibers were broken and pounded into a sheet. Later, the Chinese discovered that one could make higher quality paper by adding hemp rags and old fish nets to the pulp. The history of Chinese writing is older than that of Chinese paper.
