my grandfather was qin shi huang

Chapter 87 (Three in One) Zhao Ying: Uncle Eighteen, I really didn't want to cheat you
It was a stove different from ordinary stoves.

The stove is divided into upper and lower floors, and there is no blower, but the strange thing is that all the fireworks are pumped in, and there is no sign of jumping out at all.

And what was burning was not the usual firewood, but pieces of black pancake-like things. These things were burning red in the stove, with red and blue flames.

"What is this—"

Emperor Shi Huang couldn't help but leaned forward, squatted in front of the stove, took the tongs from the side, and pulled it.

Teng——

Because of his actions, sparks danced in the stove, and the flames suddenly rose by three points due to the sudden influx of air. The sudden rising fire light startled Shi Huangdi, who subconsciously tilted his head back.

Zhao Ying, who was at the side, laughed out loud.

"Father, you are too close, be careful not to burn your eyebrows..."

Shi Huang didn't care about his teasing, his eyes were fixed, and he turned his head to look at Zhao Ying beside him.

"What is burning inside..."

The blazing flames made Shi Huangdi's face flushed red, and the dancing flames were reflected in his pupils.

"Coal cakes are made of coal mixed with some soil. Don't look at the burning, but it doesn't cost a lot of money. If you burn it like this, you can burn it for a whole day without spending a penny. Of course, you can't burn it like this." , It’s too hot to burn like this, it can roast all my dishes to death..."

Zhao Ying cheerfully made the introduction.

Unaware of it, Emperor Shi Huang, who was squatting in front of the stove, his face reddened by the charcoal fire, had already clenched his fists excitedly.

This brat actually has a way to use coal!

That kind of charcoal, which is full of smoke and poison, even ordinary people are too lazy to use, can burn so well!
And according to what this brat said, if the money is saved, wouldn't it take two or even three days to burn it?
Do not!
Ordinary people, if they use a smaller stove and burn it sparingly, maybe they can burn it for three days or even five days for one money?Thinking of this, even the First Emperor couldn't help but take a deep breath, and suddenly turned his head to look at Zhao Ying who didn't take it seriously.

"If it's an ordinary family, with a smaller stove, how much does it cost a month..."

"Two money, at most two—the stove is small, so I don't need to burn this kind of charcoal cake—I'm mainly doing it for convenience and trouble. If ordinary people don't have a lot of money, they can burn that kind of honeycomb coal, which is more economical and the smoke is less. Smaller..."

Before Zhao Ying could finish speaking, Shi Huang kicked him in the butt angrily.

"Stinky boy, thank you for writing that there are poor people in Chang'an, it's not appropriate to have more of them. If you have such a good thing, why didn't you take it out earlier? Do you know that with this kind of charcoal cake, countless people will get rid of the severe cold It can even save a lot of firewood money..."

The more he talked, the angrier he got, he raised his foot and gave him another kick.

This stinky brat took the treasure as a treasure, and threw it in the back garden of his own house as a joke!

The first emperor's feet landed on Zhao Ying, what's the difference from scratching an itch, not to mention, how could the first emperor be willing to really kick his precious grandson?
But Zhao Ying was very cooperative, grinning his teeth exaggeratedly, covering his buttocks and dodging, which made Shi Huangdi's deliberately stern face a little hard to bear.

"Tell me, what's going on..."

The first emperor looked at the boy's playful smile, and he didn't take it seriously, and now he has realized that since this bastard dared to let him see this, he must have made arrangements for it.

"This—cough cough...Father, tell me, is there a possibility that the common people outside have already received a batch of briquettes for free trial..."

First Emperor:……

black:……

The two couldn't help but look at each other and laughed.

"Brat, I didn't expect you to do such a big thing behind Daddy's back..."

Hei also can't laugh or cry.

"Speaking of which, it's still the old minister's negligence. I didn't even hear the slightest movement..."

Hey, old man, you are a spy chief, can you say that directly in front of me?

Hei looked at Hei who pretended to be regretful with a playful face.

"Old Hei, tell me, is there a possibility that I didn't do this..."

The First Emperor and Hei: ...

"No, I said father, what kind of eyes are you, old man, I really didn't do this - I am a little grandson, clean and innocent, and I have to study and practice martial arts every day, how can I learn the art of war? That manpower, material resources and energy to do this..."

Zhao Ying spread his hands with a smile.

"Don't doubt it, my eighteenth uncle did all of this, and it's all due to the eighteenth uncle..."

Shi Huangdi and Hei looked at him suspiciously, Zhao Ying didn't care about them.Anyway, I said it. As for whether you believe it or not, anyway, I believe it.

"Do you know how great this credit is..."

The First Emperor cast a meaningful glance at Zhao Ying.

Zhao Ying waved his hand indifferently.

"It doesn't matter how big or small the credit is. Anyway, it belongs to Uncle Eighteen. As long as it can make money—cough cough, as long as it can solve the problem of people burning firewood for heating, right, father—"

The First Emperor smiled and didn't speak, and didn't get to the bottom of it.

Obviously, what kind of agreement does this stinky boy have with his youngest son? For him, no matter who gets the credit, it is a good thing.

Even if this matter was Ying'er's idea, it is certain that her youngest son also contributed a lot to this matter.

Finally something promising!
The first emperor felt very relieved, especially when he saw that Zhao Ying was not greedy for credit and put all the credit on Hu Hai's head, he was even more relieved.

This is the mind that the successor of the Great Qin should have!
good!
The first emperor looked at the sky, and then at the greenhouse in front of him.

"I'm going to eat here today, you go and prepare some side dishes for Daddy..."

Zhao Ying naturally gladly accepted Shi Huangdi's request to stay and eat.

"Father, it's easy to say, you and Mr. Hei can walk around here at will, and if it's cold, you can take a rest by the stove, or go to my study to read..."

As Zhao Ying said, he opened a few straw leaves and jumped in.

Picking up the sickle next to it, he cut a handful of green and tender leeks, and pulled out two fresh green onions.

When he looked up, he found Emperor Shihuang and Hei Zheng watching him cutting leeks with great interest, so he simply pushed open the corner door next to the greenhouse.

"Father, since the two of you haven't left, come in and help cut some wheat yellow grass. Remember not to pull out the roots of the wheat yellow grass for me—we will steam some wild vegetables to eat later..."

After Zhao Ying finished speaking, he walked out of the corner door with the leeks and green onions in his hands.

Seeing that Emperor Shihuang and Hei were still in a daze, they couldn't help but urge them.

"Why are you still standing in a daze - do it yourself, have enough food and clothing, Daddy, you don't understand, it's better to make things by yourself..."

"living comfortably without anybody's help?"

Shi Huang nodded with a smile.

"Okay, there is some truth to what you said..."

As he said that, Emperor Shihuang went in through the corner door and took the sickle hanging on the wall inside.Hei also walked in with a smile, imitating Emperor Shi Huang's example, and picked up a sickle.

"Just send it to the kitchen for me later..."

Zhao Ying greeted with a smile, and quickly walked towards the kitchen with leeks and green onions.

Seeing the boy's unceremonious behavior, Shi Huangdi and Hei subconsciously looked at each other, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

In this world, there is probably only this big grandson who is not stingy, and he doesn't regard himself as the emperor at all, but treats himself like an ordinary elder.

"This brat really dares to order anyone—"

Shi Huang rolled up his sleeves, cursed with a smile, squatted in the shed with Hei, and mowed wheat yellow grass with great interest.

Never mind, this thing is quite new——

Stir-fried meat with black fungus, stewed chicken with mushrooms, stir-fried foie gras, and stir-fried mutton with green onions.

Then, stew a big pot of venison and stewed radish for myself. I am growing my body, so I need to make up more.Of course, radishes are white radishes. Although stewed carrots may taste better, but the Western Regions have not yet been opened up, so I can't eat it if I want to.

He had just stewed chicken stewed with mushrooms and venison stewed radish, while Shi Huangdi and Hei walked in from outside with their sleeves rolled up, each holding a handful of wheat yellow grass, talking and laughing.

Not only were the shoes covered with mud, but Emperor Shihuang even got a streak of mud on his face, just like an old farmer who just came back from the field.

The distance between the retorts was so far that I couldn't see clearly the design and workmanship of the two people. In fact, they were quite different from ordinary people's clothes. I thought they were two new servants in the house.

Seeing the two walking, talking and laughing, dawdling, I couldn't help frowning.

"Hey, what about the two of you, what are you doing? Don't rely on the young master's benevolence to be lazy. Let me warn you. Our eldest son's house does not support idlers. I said..."

The young master came to the back kitchen in person, Zeng was full of energy, busy, and was directing a group of back kitchen servants outside, looking back, heh——

These two old fellows are dawdling, sneaky and slippery without looking at each other.
Isn't this disrespecting Brother Zeng?
Immediately got a little angry——

Just as he was thinking of teaching these two blind-eyed old guys a lesson, he saw the young master poking his head out of the kitchen, who was cooking himself.

"Father, Hei Lao, come, this way..."

Big, big father?

Is there anyone in the mansion called Dafu?

Zeng didn't react for a while, but when he did, his legs went limp, and he fell to his knees with a thud, kowtowing to Emperor Shihuang and Hei repeatedly.

The First Emperor couldn't help frowning slightly, and waved his hands casually.

"Okay, okay, things that have no eyesight, go to the side first..."

Zhao Ying couldn't help being amused in his heart, poked his head out and cursed.

Seeing that Emperor Shi Huang did not object, Zeng immediately ran away as if he had received an amnesty, and his heart was still pounding no matter how far he ran.

It was His Majesty who I scolded just now, and I managed to survive...

When he thought of this, he felt that he had no roots under his feet, and he felt like he was floating when he walked.

……

in the kitchen.

Zhao Ying freed his hands, poured a basin of hot water for Shi Huangdi and Heiyi, mixed the temperature with cold water, and told them to wash their hands briefly.

This is a happy and authentic way.

"Only eat food made by others, and you will never be able to taste the real taste of the food. It is also a rare pleasure to cook occasionally and make some side dishes. Come to Hei Lao, you can help cut these leeks, dad—forget it, You just sit there and watch the cooking stove, when you run out of firewood, you just add some..."

They come, the security.

The First Emperor simply squatted in front of the stove, watching Zhao Ying and Hei busy there, and from time to time he took the time to stuff a piece of firewood under the stove. At this time, he realized that the kitchen at Zhao Ying's house seemed to be the same as he had seen before. The kitchen is different.

There is no blower, but the fire burns extremely vigorously.

When I was outside just now, I was too busy asking about briquettes, so I didn't care about this, but now that I was free, I immediately noticed something strange.

"What's the matter with this stove, it obviously doesn't have a blower, but it burns better than the one with a blower..."

"Oh, someone changed it a few days ago, how about it, isn't it particularly easy to burn..."

As Zhao Ying spoke, he mixed the stuffing with chives and eggs.In this season, eating dumplings and drinking some wine is also a great pleasure in life, and the first emperor seems to like this taste very much.

"How much is this cost?"

The First Emperor asked subconsciously, and Hei also looked at this rare stove with great interest. It was higher than ordinary stoves, but its structure was somewhat similar to the stove outside.The stove door is divided into upper and lower layers, with the fire on the top and the ashes on the bottom?
But he couldn't figure out why it looked the same as ordinary people's stoves, but the effect was so much worse, and it could burn so well without a blower...

Zhao Ying was amused when he heard it.

"What's the cost of this? It's just a bit of labor, the original stove is dismantled, and it's done after re-laying..."

The First Emperor and Hei: ...

"Where are the craftsmen on the stove in your house? Let them clean up, and go to the Shaofu Supervisor to find Shi Lu to report immediately!"

Shi Huang gave him an annoyed look.

This child doesn't know how much firewood is expensive if he is not in charge of the family. This stove burns so well, how much firewood can it save for the common people?
"Father, do you want to promote it? That's fine, they also build the stove that burns briquettes or charcoal cakes outside, and I will let them teach it together..."

Although he cooperated with Hu Hai to launch briquettes and briquettes, he also knew that coal poisoning was terrible. In this era, there were no extra resources to build briquette stoves, and it was impossible to spend a lot of money to build special chimneys for briquette stoves.

Even if it can be built, it is impossible for ordinary people to afford it.The only feasible way is to build a stove similar to a western fireplace and build a special chimney.

In this era, the houses of ordinary people have little airtightness at all. As long as most of the poisonous smoke is sucked out by the chimney, the possibility of problems will be greatly reduced.

In fact, the safest way is to build the stove outside and lay a kang inside, just like growing your own greenhouse.However, the disadvantages are also obvious, and the charcoal used will be much more.

Originally, he had already drawn the blueprint, and trained the craftsmen in his house by building a greenhouse and renovating the kitchen, and planned to send it to Hu Hai in the next few days.

I just didn't expect the temperature to drop so quickly.

For two days in a row, the north wind swept across, and it snowed so quickly.

Then, before they had time to communicate with Hu Hai, Shi Huangdi and Hei discovered something strange.

Zhao Ying mourned for Hu Hai for 3 minutes. Uncle Shiba, it's not that I tricked you on purpose, it's that you don't have the life to do meritorious deeds. I just wanted to send you there, but the elder father came here in person.

He really didn't want to take the credit for it. Daqin's future is still uncertain, and being able to secretly accumulate some power is much more important than these credits in his opinion.

And this kind of credit, if you really want to establish it, how bad is this one?
It really doesn't matter!
I don't know if it was because of his personal participation, but Emperor Shi Huang felt that the meal was so delicious that he ate a few more dumplings and ate another half bowl of wheat yellow grass for the first time.

After eating, accompanied by Zhao Ying, he strolled around the back garden for a while, and then left the eldest son's mansion leisurely with Hei.

Suddenly, I felt that the pressure on my shoulders was not so great, and I even felt much easier to breathe.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Hei feels that his Majesty walks much more energetically than before.

……

Early this morning, Hu Hai hastily picked up two bites of breakfast, purposely changed into the fox fur cloak he had recently donated by others, sat in the carriage, and went out excitedly.

Go straight to Xianyang Palace.

It's not easy. After working so hard to prepare for such a long time, I finally got the chance to show my skills in front of A Weng.

It won't let the big brother and Zhao Ying's bastard be more beautiful than before.

But when we arrived at Xianyang Palace, after inquiring about it, Emperor Shi Huang left early in the morning!

Hu Hai: ...

It doesn't matter, Gu can wait!

Ah Weng seldom goes out, so he will be back soon, right?
So, he waited and waited, waited and waited, from morning to noon, his stomach was growling with hunger, and he didn't see the figure of his own Emperor Shihuang.

A few times he wanted to go back first, thinking that it was already noon, and when A Weng came back, wouldn't it be a good time to have lunch together.Eating is the best time for father and son to exchange feelings. For these, Hu Hai is very clear.

So, he suppressed the hunger in his stomach and waited for another hour.

He didn't eat well in the morning, he didn't have much food in his stomach, and the fur on his body was no longer warm. He just felt hungry and cold. He was shivering from the cold, and he was about to cry.

I was extremely puzzled.

Ah Ong, where did you go today?
He waited and waited, seeing that he couldn't bear it anymore, and when he was about to go back to eat something first, he saw his own Emperor Shihuang and Hei walking slowly from outside.

And it seemed that his own Aunt's face was flushed, and he seemed to be in a good mood, and he was immediately overjoyed.

It seems that I have come to the right place!

"Ah Weng, Old Hei—"

Hu Hai rubbed the muscles on his face that were almost frozen, tightened the belt that was about to fall, and greeted him with a smile on his face.

It's just that it has been frozen for too long, and the smile looks a little unnatural.

Seeing Hu Hai waiting outside from a distance, Shi Huangdi suddenly felt a movement in his heart, but his face remained calm, and he nodded with a smile.

"It's too cold outside, don't freeze yourself, go inside—"

Upon hearing this, Hu Hai was moved to tears, and hurriedly stepped forward to support the arm of the starting emperor.

The First Emperor looked at his beloved youngest son, and a trace of imperceptible guilt flashed in his eyes, but this guilt was fleeting.

His eyes became calm and clear again.

The inheritance of Daqin is more important than anything else.

Hu Hai was the shield he pushed out, an explanation to all those who upheld the legalist philosophy in Daqin, and it was also a whetstone he picked out for his eldest son, Fusu.Of course, it is an alternative.

It is naturally the best for Fusu to repent. If Fusu does not know how to repent in the end, and still sticks to his Confucian ideas, then he is Hu Hai.

Therefore, on the one hand, he vigorously supported Hu Hai, and even pushed Li Si, the most powerful left minister in the court, and Zhao Gao, his close minister, CRRC Mansion Commander, to Hu Hai as teachers, teaching him the law and swordsmanship, and teaching him to govern the country On the other hand, he has been reluctant to establish the position of prince for a long time.

That's because he still misses Fu Su and is dissatisfied with Hu Hai.

Therefore, Xiongcaiwei is slightly like him, so he can't help but look forward and backward on this crucial issue, worrying about gains and losses, and can't make a final decision.

Until, Zhao Ying suddenly broke into his sight, and his performance became more and more amazing, more and more brilliant, gradually covering up the light of Fusu and Hu Hai completely.

Only then did he suddenly realize that he seemed to have a new choice.

The hesitation in my heart gradually dissipated, and the haze that shrouded my heart all day seemed to reveal a ray of light from the sky.

Hu Hai, who was supporting his own Aunt, didn't notice the momentary change in his Aunt's emotion, and was still immersed in the touch of his Aunt caring about him.

"Ah Weng, during this period of time, I have found a way to use coal, and the price is extremely low. Today, more than a dozen workshops have been built, and the briquettes and charcoal cakes produced are enough for the small people in Xianyang City and the surrounding area. Use, with this, I, the head of the Qin Dynasty, will no longer have to suffer from the wind and cold, and you will no longer have to worry about the lack of firewood supply every winter..."

Holding the hot tea in his hands, Hu Hai secretly looked at the face of his own Shi Huangdi while talking, seeing Shi Huangdi nodding in relief, his heart became more and more excited.

"It's just that during this period of time, I've been busy with this, so I haven't been able to pay Aunt's greetings often, and I feel a little worried..."

Seeing his youngest son, he happily told himself how to use charcoal cleverly, and how to build a workshop, arrange manpower, how to travel around, reserve in advance and a series of things during this period of time. Ying's role in this is not mentioned at all.

The First Emperor couldn't help but secretly sighed.

The goods are worth throwing away. Compared with my grandson who is not stingy, this kid is a bit less courageous and open-minded.

With this thought, it is inevitable that my heart will be a little tired.

But after all, my own son is the leader of this matter, and he has been busy working on this matter before and after. After all, he has grown a lot compared to before.As a Weng myself, I can't chill the child's thoughts.

"Well done, I will reward you a lot!"

With a wave of the first emperor's hand, there were a lot of rewards.

The wealth accumulated by the royal families of the six countries over the years all belonged to the Qin Dynasty. Although it was not as exaggerated as written in the Afang Palace, there was really no shortage of treasures in the hands of the First Emperor.

When Hu Hai left, his face was full of joy.

The important thing is not the rewards from the first emperor, but what the first emperor did to himself. He was really happy, and his strategy was correct. He went to the palace every day to pay his respects, and to eat and chat with Ah Weng. Why not go out and do a good job and share his worries for Ah Weng!
Hu Hai, who was encouraged by the first emperor, didn't even feel so hungry, but felt that he had finally found the right way to please his own A Weng, and he was full of energy.

He didn't even feel so depressed because he had to give Zhao Ying a large sum of money to that dog.

Although that dog thing is hateful, sometimes it is quite useful!
