Chu Tang: Tell Li Er at the beginning that I am a time traveler

Chapter 23 Don't Be Afraid Others Say You're Stupid
"Li Chong needs a craftsman who can make colored glaze?"

"Yes, Father."

"What does he want to make glass for?"

"The minister here doesn't know."

……

If you can't make glass yourself, ask someone else to teach you.

The good news is that Li Chong already knows that glass is made of sand, so it depends on what other ingredients will be used next.

then……

Li Chengqian came back and told him that during the Sui Dynasty, the method of making colored glaze had been lost.

Today, among the craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty, the only one who can make colored glaze is He Chou, a former general. The problem is that He Chou also died a few years ago.

If Li Chong wanted to know how to make colored glaze, he could only go to He Chou's son to see if He Chou's son knew.

"What about He Chou's son?"

Li Chong then asked Li Chengqian.

"Uh...he doesn't have a son, but he has a daughter, and she's married! I asked in person, and the other party said that she didn't know anything about her father."

"Then there are no books left?"

"No."

Li Chong seems to remember this person's name, is it the one that made porcelain, comparable to colored glaze?
It seems that the colored glaze he made cannot be regarded as colored glaze.

It should be said that porcelain is more suitable.

Unexpectedly, my majestic Chinese glaze production technology was broken in the Sui Dynasty.

This made Li Chong sigh for a while.

"Forget it, since you don't have it, you don't have it. If you don't know, you can ask a few Western Region merchants."

Then, Li Chong took Li Chengqian to the West Market.

To be honest, this is probably the first time Li Chengqian has entered the West Market.

It seems that the Tang officials are not allowed to enter the West Market above the fifth rank, but this time they have a mission, which is naturally different.

Of course, before entering West City, he had to send a guard back to tell Li Er.

Otherwise, it will be said that he did not say hello in advance.

"Hubing is on sale, freshly baked Hubing."

"This gentleman, do you want one?"

"Zhang's Tang Zhonglao Pills, you'll want to eat them even after you've eaten them."

Li Chong rubbed his stomach, and it happened to be noon, so he said, "That's it, let's eat dumplings. I haven't eaten dumplings for a long time."

Seeing Li Chong stop, this mistress, let's call him mistress first, and quickly brought Li Chong, Li Chengqian, and the people behind him inside.

When I saw the people behind me, none of them looked like normal people, I was a little puzzled at that time, but soon, I immediately returned to normal and said: "Guest officer, please sit down, what kind of stuffing does the guest officer want to eat for his prison pills?" ?”

Li Zhong looked at Li Chengqian, "What do you guys have here?"

"There are mutton stuffing, pork stuffing, and leek stuffing. Lamb is the most expensive, and leek is the cheapest."

"Then I want pork."

After finishing speaking, he said to Li Chengqian: "Whatever you want to eat, you can order it yourself."

"Then I am the same."

After the two finished ordering, Li Zhong said to the rest of the people: "You can order as you like."

They all heard that Li Zhongzhong made pork stuffing, so they naturally chose pork one after another.

Otherwise, would you still dare to eat mutton?
In fact, bringing this group of people out makes the two of them very conspicuous, but there is no way, and it is impossible not to bring them.

After all, what if something unexpected happens.

While waiting, Li Chengqian was surprised at everything he saw.

He looked like a country bumpkin who just came to town.

Li Chong couldn't help but sighed in his heart, "I still don't know enough." '

"I haven't even been in the West Market, so I have the nerve to say that I am from Chang'an?"

Hearing his teacher's complaints in a low voice, Li Chengqian also replied: "No one above the fifth rank can enter the West Market. How can I compare with you, teacher."

"By the way, what grade is the prince?"

Li Zhong asked in a very small voice.

Li Chengqian said: "The prince cannot be said to be a grade, a prince is a prince."

"Then the clothes you usually wear are not the color of the third grade?"

Li Chengqian usually wears a cape, a leather belt, a round-neck gown, and soap boots, but he is actually quite handsome. Of course, Li Zhong is not good at this. If it is a little lolita, you can consider it.

Li Chengqian replied: "That's because everyone above the third rank wears it like this."

"Actually, when you are a prince, you also have to come out to see the world. Otherwise, you don't know what the sufferings of the people are. You are like saying that someone in the Jin Dynasty, Emperor Hui of Jin, had a famine one year, and the people had no food. Yes, he told the minister, why don't the people eat meat porridge?"

Li Chengqian didn't seem to find anything wrong with this sentence.

Or maybe Li Chong spoke too fast, and he hasn't reacted yet.

"something wrong?"

Sure enough, Li Chengqian asked.

"Didn't you hear what I said just now? You don't have to eat rice, why did the emperor tell the people not to eat meat porridge?"

Li Chengqian still looked at him blankly.

It's over! It's over!

His disciples shouldn't be so stupid.

Li Chong could only remind him: "People don't even have to eat rice, can they still afford meat porridge? Isn't meat porridge more rare than rice?"

Only then did Li Chengqian hurriedly say "oh", indicating that he understood.

It can only be said that he was a little absent-minded.

Or rather...

Indeed, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it at all.

"Damn, I'm very worried about you."

It was the first time Li Chengqian heard his teacher call him that.

It feels a little weird.

He quickly replied:
"I just didn't hear clearly. But teacher, since there is no rice, why don't you just eat meat?"

Yes, he directly omitted the word porridge.

But it can't be said that he is wrong, after all, if the rice is gone, how can the birds and beasts be gone?

Once upon a time, teenagers after 1000 actually had the same idea, even, probably quite a few.

Li Chong said: "You can ask the owner of this store about this question. If you don't know anything, you can ask others humbly, no matter what the other party's identity is."

Li Chengqian didn't dare to ask.

Li Chong said quickly: "Don't be afraid that others will say you are stupid, anyway, after today, we may not see each other again in the future, even if he wants to make fun of you, he will never find a chance, let alone, he doesn't know your identity .You just say..."

Then Li Chengqian was instigated by Li Zhong.

Immediately, the store owner was also taken aback by Li Chengqian's question. For a while, he didn't know how to answer him.

"I said, little man, you have never seen a famine. In a famine, there is no grass growing everywhere. Fish in the river, birds flying in the sky, where else can you find them. The most people are eating Eat tree bark, eat grass roots. What is the reason for the famine? It is because the ground is dry, and the water in the river is gone. When the water is gone, the fish will naturally disappear. As for hunting birds, Xiao Langjun, I just like this Let me tell you, after a month or two of starvation, a bird flying in the sky will starve to death as long as it does not fly to other farther places for food. Therefore, some people just don’t want to leave In my hometown, in order to survive, I had to take my whole family to other states and counties, hunting for food everywhere like birds. This is actually a last resort.”

Li Chengqian's eyes flickered.

Can't refute the store's words.

Soon, after getting the answer, Li Chengqian bowed briefly to the other party, and then ran back.

"Understood now?"

"understood."

"Okay, let's eat dumplings!"

Afterwards, Xiaoer brought out the Tang Zhonglao Wan they ordered earlier.
