The great man will live forever

Chapter 22
Liu Han gave all the gold given by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to invest in the restaurant. He wanted to make this restaurant the best in the world.

To be high-end, grand, classy, ​​and earn money from the rich, the poor in the Eastern Han Dynasty almost had no clothes to wear, and they were still looking at the money in their pockets. It was unnecessary and impossible to make money.

The children of Maoling, the rich second generation who were demolished, and the princes and nobles of Chang'an are his targets.

Originally, he wanted to make distilled liquor, but seeing that the farmers were working too hard, he thought of making a water tanker first.

The waterwheel is an ancient water-lifting irrigation tool. It is a running machine developed by the working people of ancient China who made full use of water conservancy.

According to documentary records, the earliest waterwheel appeared around the Eastern Han Dynasty.

It is now the Western Han Dynasty, and it is estimated that it will still be hundreds of years away.

Ten years can reveal the coming and going of spring and autumn, a hundred years can reveal birth, old age, illness and death, a thousand years can reveal the rise and fall of dynasties, and ten thousand years can reveal the changing of the dawn and the stars.

The power of time is ruthless and terrifying.

The shape of the waterwheel resembles an ancient wheel. The wooden spokes are supported by the axle and spread out in a radial shape. The top of each spoke is equipped with a scraper and a water bucket. The scraper is filled with water.

The river water rushed in, and with the inertia of the water's motion, the spokes slowly rotated. Each bucket was filled, and the river water was lifted up step by step.

At the top, the water bucket tilts naturally, pouring water into the aqueduct and flowing to the irrigated farmland.

It does not require any external force, relying entirely on the water's own water potential, and can be irrigated day and night.

As an important part of Chinese farming culture, it embodies the creativity of the Chinese nation, witnesses Chinese agricultural civilization, and provides testimony for water conservancy research.

The invention of the waterwheel laid the foundation for people to live and work in peace and contentment, and for social harmony and stability. It has been used for more than 1800 years since then. Even now, waterwheels can still be seen in some places.

Of course, this thing could not be achieved overnight. He found several workers and asked them to work on this idea first.

"Come on, these are all for you."

Liu Han took some money and planned to reward the farmers and craftsmen, but they naturally declined.

"Don't dare!"

"General, no need. We'd love to have you help us."

"Life is not easy for you, I have plenty of money, take it."

Maybe he couldn't resist the temptation of money after all, or Liu Han didn't lack the money.

"Thank you General!"

They took the money and kowtowed in thanks.

Liu Han sent them away and came to see the beauties. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty rewarded him with ten beauties.

Not to mention that she is the most beautiful woman in the country, but she is also a beautiful girl from a small family, and in later generations she can be regarded as the beauty of the class and the school.

Most of them are young and beautiful, between the ages of 14 and 18. They are all beauties sent to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty from various places. He can't enjoy them so much. He has thousands of people in his harem.

Two a day, no duplicates for a year, most of which he had never favored, so he rewarded them to his subordinates from time to time.

He gave Huo Qubing some rewards. Such women could only be concubines and were not named in the history books.

Huo Qubing had a son after him, named Huo Shan, who should have been born a few years later. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty doted on him, doting on him more than his own son. He kept him by his side since he was a child, and placed all his love and hope on Huo Qubing. .

He also took him to Mount Tai to be enshrined. You know, he didn't even take the prince with him, but only took Huo Qubing's son, which shows how much he likes this child.

Maybe it was because there were too many honors and favors, or Mount Tai was too high and he was too tired to climb it, or maybe it was because the meritorious deeds required to achieve Zen status on Mount Tai were so great that only an immeasurable emperor could bear them, and he couldn't bear it.

Not long after he climbed Mount Tai with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he died young at the age of 10 after returning.From then on, Huo Qubing was completely extinct, but the blood of the champion should be flowing in all future generations, which is the soul of the nation.

After Huo Shen's death, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty missed him very much, and specially wrote "Song of the Marquis of the Carriage": "The beautiful orchid is beautiful, the mushroom demon is lustful. The scenery is beautiful, the wind is lingering, and the fragrance is flowing. The emperor has no wisdom. , When people pass away, they come to the fairyland. The road to heaven is far away and there is no end in sight. I don’t realize that my clothes are dripping with tears."

……

These 10 beauties are pretty good. Ordinary people may have the idea of ​​having children with them, but Liu Han does not.

Probably because with a beauty like Ayi Mei, everyone else is a fan of rouge. Besides, the little peach is also cute, like a cherry, and you can eat it when it ripens in a few years.

"You three are not married yet, right?" Liu Han looked at Bald Qiang and the other three.

"No."

"Okay, you guys, pick the one you like, don't be too young, and treat them well."

Good guy, he sent his wife directly.

"Your Majesty gave it to you, but we don't dare."

"I'm just one person with two waists. I can't bear to die from so much. I want to win the heart of one person in my life and stay together till the end of my life. Why do I need so many? Besides, there are endless beauties in the world. Just find the one that matches your needs. .”

When Ai Mei heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on her face: "I wish to win the heart of one person and stay together forever."

She murmured to herself, and suddenly felt that these words were so beautiful. She smiled for a moment, like an epiphyllum in full bloom, with a different kind of beauty.

"What about me?" Xiao Taohong pouted, obviously jealous.

"You are my little girl, my little girl forever and ever."

In the end, Xiong Da, Xiong Er, and Bald Qiang chose three women. They were all cute and charming. Xiong Er chose a slightly taller and fatter woman. That woman seemed fatter than him, because Xiong Er was already thinner. some.

"You guys just stay as maids in the house. When you are older, if you meet someone you like, tell me and I will let you go."

Only seven people were left standing uneasily. Liu Han said gently that he always respects life.

He can kill the Huns without hesitation, because they are enemies, but every life is unique in his heart. In his heart, Liu Che is not necessarily nobler than a farmer.

But he is still afraid of Liu Che, which is the fear of death and the fear of power.

After these instructions, he lived a somewhat carefree life, teasing the little girl from time to time, and chatting with Ai Mei when he had nothing to do. I don't know if this chat was serious or not.

When I had free time, I went to see Huo Qubing again. If I had nothing to do, I would practice sword practice, read books, and compete with each other in martial arts.

Even though Liu Han's martial arts is not as good as Huo Qubing, if two people fight, Huo Qubing will never be able to defeat him. After more than ten years of martial arts training, as long as the calcaneus is not too bad or too stupid, he can gain some accomplished.

Of course, their martial arts are not like those of later generations such as climbing over walls, breaking rocks with one palm, or light skills. These are completely absent.

They are training on strength, speed, and agility, as well as killing skills. Which places are most likely to kill people, and where to be careful when fighting with others.

Thousands of trainings have engraved these into the bones and formed muscle memory.

What's more important is that they will brew some precious medicinal herbs, which is relatively expensive, so the poor in literature and rich in martial arts. The recipes for these medicinal herbs are all handed down from the pre-Qin period, and the specific year of use for a certain medicine is Very particular.

It's not that some prescriptions in later generations are ineffective, but some medicines simply don't match the year, resulting in the medicine not being effective at all.

These medicines are indeed quite useful. They can quickly increase a person's strength and have minimal side effects. Of course, the process will be slightly painful, just like a small ant biting the body.

In this way, the days passed peacefully, and less than half a month passed.
