Your Majesty, Madam called you to farm

Chapter 205 Shi Mishuang Makes Ancient Matches

Zhao Xingcheng followed Shi Mishuang's steps while arranging his clothes, and the two went to the hall for dinner.

After breakfast, the two went to the study. The sulfur and flint prepared yesterday were placed in the study. After Shi Mishuang and Zhao Xingcheng were in the study, Shi Mishuang asked Zhao Xingcheng about things.

Zhao Xingcheng looked at Shi Mishuang helplessly and said: "Miss, this is too impatient. I'll bring the things to the mistress right away. Don't worry, ma'am."

So Zhao Xingcheng took out the sulfur and flint from the box beside him and handed them to Shi Mishuang.Shi Mishuang thought about the matches he saw in modern times.

Then he said to Zhao Xingcheng: "It's just that these things don't seem to be enough. Do you have a wooden stick? Find a wooden stick and try it. I'm going to put this sulfur on the wooden stick."

"If it's just a simple fire tool, use a wooden stick. It's similar to a match, and it's very convenient." Although Zhao Xingcheng didn't know what the match was, he knew that Shi Mishuang wanted one. stick.

Then he nodded and said: "There are wooden sticks, but I need to go out to get them. How big and long does the lady want?" Shi Mishuang thought about it and shook his head with a troubled expression.

"I don't know how long it will be, as long as my hand can hold it, it doesn't need to be too long, it's more convenient to lift." Zhao Xingcheng looked at Shi Mishuang's hand and walked out the study.

Shi Mishuang was waiting for Zhao Xingcheng in the study, and Zhao Xingcheng came back quickly with a wooden stick. Shi Mishuang felt that the wooden stick was quite suitable.

After Shi Mishuang took the wooden stick, he also felt very comfortable in his hand. Not only was it very comfortable to hold, but the length was also excellent. Shi Mishuang was quite satisfied.

So Shi Mishuang tried to hit the sulfur on the wooden stick. Shi Mishuang only planned to put the sulfur on the big head of the wooden stick, which would be more convenient.

After Shi Mishuang put the sulfur on the wooden stick, he felt that it was almost done. In fact, the most important thing to do was to put the sulfur on the wooden stick. After installing it, Shi Mishuang felt that he could try it.

But it must not be tried in the study, lest sparks start a fire, the study will be finished, and most of the study is full of inflammable materials, so Shi Mishuang thought about it and said to Zhao Xingcheng.

"This match has probably been made, but we just need to experiment to see if it can be easily used with fire, but we can't experiment in the study, so let's go out, where can we experiment?"

Zhao Xingcheng understood what Shi Mishuang was saying, and after thinking about it, he said: "Then go to the yard, there is nothing easy to catch fire in the yard, and it is relatively close, so it is easy to modify if there is something wrong. "

Shi Mishuang had no objection, and after thinking about it, it was indeed possible, so he took the wooden stick and prepared to go out. The moment he walked to the door, he remembered that he didn't take the flint, so he turned his head and said to Zhao Xingcheng in embarrassment. .

"Sanggong, I forgot to take something, can you help me take it, that is the flint you took out just now, you can just take two, let's go to the yard and try to see if it works. "

Hearing this, Zhao Xingcheng immediately turned around to get the flint, so the two went to the yard. After arriving in the yard, Shi Mishuang took the flint from Zhao Xingcheng's hand and put it in his own hand.

After he found the location, he approached the flint with a wooden stick, and ignited the wooden stick by using the sparks generated by the impact of the flint.

It started to burn all of a sudden, and Zhao Xingcheng looked on and was very surprised: "The lady is really amazing, it's so simple and easy to make it, and it's very convenient to catch fire like this."

"It seems that the lady has succeeded. The lady is too powerful. This method seems to be very useful. Can it be produced in large quantities? That's it."

Shi Mishuang didn't expect that he would succeed in just one try, and said with a smile on his face: "Of course it is possible. My husband also saw it just now. In fact, the method of making it is also very simple, so as long as there is sulfur It’s fine with Flint.”

Zhao Xingcheng understood, and Shi Mishuang immediately continued: "This is something like a match, it is more convenient to use fire, do you think it is okay?"

Zhao Xingcheng nodded immediately: "My lady's idea is very good. I think it's very good. This is much more convenient than ours now, and flint is actually more common, but it's not easy to ignite."

"The lady's method completely makes up for this defect." Shi Mishuang also sighed a little: "Flint is common, but sulfur is more difficult to obtain."

"The most important thing here is sulfur." ​​The two of them looked at each other and knew what to do next, so Shi Mishuang and Zhao Xingcheng took the already made wooden sticks and flints and went To the palace.

At this moment, there is no time to delay, Shi Mishuang wants to tell the emperor about this, as long as the emperor thinks it is okay, as long as the emperor is willing, then the brimstone can be easily obtained, and it will be very easy to make such a match at that time.

The two arrived at the palace soon, and Shi Mishuang directly entered the palace with the token given by the chief eunuch, and the chief eunuch who received the news immediately informed the emperor about it.

"Your Majesty, Miss Shi has just entered the palace, and she brought her husband along with her. Does the Emperor want to see you?" The emperor could also guess that Shi Mishuang entered the palace because of the locust disaster.

Without raising her head, she said, "Of course I want to see you. Ms. Shi must have entered the palace because of the locust disaster. How could I refuse the door?"

So the chief eunuch got the emperor's permission and immediately sent someone to meet Shi Mishuang and Zhao Xingcheng. The young eunuch brought Shi Mishuang and Zhao Xingcheng to the door of the imperial study, and the chief eunuch was already waiting at the door.

Seeing Zhao Xingcheng and Shi Mishuang coming together, although the chief eunuch was a little nervous, he said to Shi Mishuang calmly: "Miss Shi is here, the emperor is already waiting for you in the imperial study, hurry up go in."

So he took Shi Mishuang and Zhao Xingcheng into the imperial study room, and after seeing the emperor, Shi Mishuang said to the emperor with a happy face: "Your Majesty, the daughter of the people has already thought of a way to use fire conveniently." .”

"The purpose of entering the palace this time is to show you, do you have time now?" The emperor had already made mental preparations, but when he heard the fact with his own ears, a trace of sadness flashed across his face. surprise.
