Quick Travel: Start by pretending to be an envoy to help the First Emperor’s infrastructure

Chapter 42: Mohist brand fire kang, His Majesty agreed

The charcoal thing went relatively smoothly, and except for the name of the charcoal-making master, everything satisfied Youan.

October is approaching, and the whole Xianyang is filled with a busy atmosphere. The new year is coming, and things such as worshiping gods and awarding awards must be carried out steadily. Fengchang, the head of the ancestral temple, is too busy to stop, and Fusu has to be dragged to "rehearsals" from time to time. ", came back with a tired look on his face.

You'an saw that his appearance had become much darker in the past few days, and couldn't help but said: "If the eldest son has anything to do, you don't have to come to my place every day. Anyway, I have nothing to do next, and Wang Li and General Li are hanging around my place. There’s no shortage of people to use.”

As the people who reserve tools, Wang Li and Li Xin have no temper at all. Their family members have repeatedly warned them not to lose opportunities because of laziness. With their family's status, what they need is not entirely military merit. Of course, if there is a war, Fighting, they must be more active than anyone else.

For the first time, Fusu felt that the teachers' voices were too noisy, because this was the first year after the Six Kingdoms were pacified. Sacrifice was a major event, because etiquette and other matters were so noisy. Whether one followed Zhou's rituals or not, the process of the sacrifice was How every detail is arranged...it's all a point of quarrel.

He was tired of staying there, and suspected that his father asked him to stay there because he was too lazy to deal with it. Anyway, in the end, he only wanted the general regulations.

"The process has been completed. I don't need to go over and participate in person. If there are any changes, Taizhu will send someone to inform me." Anyway, he didn't want to stay among a group of doctors, Confucian scholars and clan relatives.

Since he insisted on not resting, Youan did not stop him.

The name of God's Envoy is indeed useful. As the weather gets colder, charcoal is indeed useful, and many middle- and upper-class people buy into it.

The better news is that Mr. Shi, who had not contacted Youan for a long time, suddenly rushed to the door of the house in the middle of the night, and Yi even had to wake her up in the middle of the night.

You'an didn't even have time to open his eyes. He immediately woke up when he heard Mr. Shi's words, "Really? Can the fire kang be used?"

There was no room for her being unconscious. The fire kang was the biggest killer in the north. However, she began to worry about Qi Daqin's tree. Can she really survive?
Mr. Shi's eyes were red, but his mind was completely clear. "It works. It's still burning in my house now. It's all warm."

You'an put on his clothes and rushed to his house with Mr. Shi in the middle of the night. There was no place to walk outside, and there were stones, wood, yellow mud, straw...the small yard was filled with huge treasures.

It's just that they didn't have time to pay attention to those details. They followed You'an closely. Shi Lao and other children of the Mo family were still standing in the room. They were all big red-eyed rabbits. Without exception, their faces were tired but their eyes were clear and full of expectation. Xiang Youan hoped that the divine messenger could give them an accurate answer.

You'an also didn't understand the matter of burning a kang. Children who had never been in the north would resist hard in winter. He patted the straw-padded bed, and sure enough, it was still warm. Then he followed Mr. Shi outside to look at the stove. And the chimney, a group of people circled around.

You'an understood that this fire kang still had common problems, such as low heat utilization efficiency and lack of ventilation. However, she could not stand the process of making something from scratch, so she gave the Mo family high praise.

"Okay, you guys are really amazing." Just relying on her stuttering description and a complete idea, she actually made the thing.

The group of people were not partying, but they were just relieved. The hanging breath was relieved all of a sudden, and some of them slowly fell down under Youan's horrified eyes. She was so frightened that she thought they were exhausted.

When it became clear that she was just too tired to fall asleep, she breathed a sigh of relief. She was scared to death.

You An took a rest and discussed with Mr. Shi about promoting the hot kang. Anyway, he was not in a hurry, and he didn't want to really tire people out.

Mr. Shi was still trying to show off his strength, "God's envoy, I'm fine. Let's continue discussing."

"..." You'an had nothing to say. She really couldn't believe the words of an old man who was so sleepy that he rolled his eyes hard. At the same time, she was also afraid of risking his life.

Fortunately, Shi Lao is very powerful. She may be the most energetic person during this period. Mainly because she and a group of Mohist disciples, including Mr. Shi, really have no restraint in doing things.

Shi Lao gently raised her hand. You'an guessed what she was going to do but still showed admiration. In Shi Lao Zhang's unclear eyes, Shi Lao's hand fell heavily, and Shi Lao Zhang finally rolled his eyes completely. , the person also completely fainted.

There was silence, and the remaining Mohist disciples who still had their eyes open looked at Shi Yu stupidly.

Shi Lao's face was gentle and kind, and she slowly smiled, "You also want to be treated the same as your elders?"

The Mohist disciples who formed a circle shook their heads in unison, huddled together like little chickens trying to keep each other warm.

"Then why don't you go and take a rest quickly?" Shi Lao raised her voice slightly, full of threats.

In an instant, only Mr. Shi, who was knocked unconscious, was left in the room, as well as You'an, who was full of admiration, and Yi, who met a fellow man.

"Shi Lao, this family cannot live without you." You'an said sincerely.

Facing You'an, Shi Lao regained her loving expression, "God's envoys should be tougher in the future. For some people who don't make sense, taking action directly is more effective than persuading them."

Liuhe rolled his eyes after hearing this, and the filters applied to his host were too thick.

Wouldn't the cruelty of the already ruthless host increase in a straight line under such instigation and teaching?
You'an lowered her head and laughed out loud. She also felt that Shi Lao's filter on her was a bit thick.In the middle of the night, she went home again and lay in bed, tossing and turning. She thought she would be unable to sleep due to excitement, but in the end she underestimated her sleeping skills, and fell asleep not long after, even Li Xin and Wang Li, who came to work as usual, ate The door was closed.

Fusu was treated a little better, but he didn't get through the door. He was directly told by Yi about the fire bed. The three of them went to Mr. Shi's house without stopping. They were still a group of sleepy people. It can be said that the three of them lived a pampered life. The noble young master squatted there and burned the kang vigorously.

After You'an woke up and went to Shi's father-in-law's house, what he saw was three people dying on the kang.

She looked up at the sky outside. Although the weather was starting to cool down, it was still far from the day when she needed to burn a fire, so she carefully covered the heat sores.

Fusu saw her slight embarrassment and stood up to tidy up her slightly messy clothes. The remaining two were still half-lying on the kang, acting like an old man who knew himself at the entrance of the village without a teacher.

"God's Envoy." Fusu was too happy, "Is the fire kang also something that God's Envoy wants to implement in Great Qin?"

You'an stared at him and did not immediately discuss the issue of the implementation of the fire kang. "Master Fusu, shouldn't there be a reward for the first contribution to the fire kang? Doesn't Great Qin only have clear rewards and promotions for military workers?"

Fusu was stunned, and the two uncles who were leisurely on the bed finally sat up.

"What the divine envoy said is that the Mo family's merit in research and development should indeed be rewarded." Fusu Wen explained, "It is not just the military industry that can be promoted. My father treats those who have meritorious service with integrity."

You'an then asked: "But if it's like the Mo family, are there any special regulations? Even if they make something that benefits the country and the people, they probably don't know who to turn to."

Fusu was asked, and Shi Lao's eyes looked at the divine envoy more and more tenderly. She was different from Mr. Shi, who was born in the Mo family. However, after so many years, the Moh family did not say that they were not popular in Qin, but it was really difficult to get a place. , most of them are making Mohist tools and weapons at the bottom level.

He said seriously: "Fusu understands what the divine envoy means."

He turned around and looked at Mr. Shi and others, "The Mo family took the lead in the fire kang matter. Fusu will definitely ask his father to show his merit for the Mo family."

Mr. Shi didn't expect it to be so formal. At that time, they were only thinking about making things, and they really didn't expect to get rewards from the court. They were all a little at a loss, and they had to hold their heads high and say they didn't care.

"We are just following what the divine envoy said. The greatest contributor is the divine envoy. The Mohist family does not dare to take the credit."

You'an doesn't agree with this matter. She is really a complete Party A. "Rewards and punishments are clear, Mr. Shi doesn't have to refuse so quickly. So many people from the Mohist family have worked hard for so many days, and the money and time spent in the process will eventually be recovered." Otherwise, if we see that so much effort has not been rewarded in the future, who would dare to invest in researching things that benefit the country and the people?"

She took the initiative to provide the money in the early stage, but that doesn't mean it can be ignored. Others don't have such angel investors.

Fusu immediately said, "What the divine envoy said is that Fusu will report together. Mr. Shi does not consider himself and only serves the public. But after all, there are still many younger disciples of the Mo family who have to live and be encouraged."

Those who hold salaries for everyone must not freeze them to death in the wind and snow.

Mr. Shi always had to consider the future development of the Mo family and did not reject it blindly. Especially when he saw the obvious joy and expectation on the faces of the disciples, he knew that they also wanted to get the rewards they deserved.

"Are any of them promising?"

When faced with Mr. Shi's scoldings, the Mo family always responded with silly smiles, which made people lose their temper.

Fusu didn't delay and reported it directly to Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng was also curious about it, and soon the titles and rewards came down.

Within a few days, he began to hear reports on the latest news in Xianyang City these days. When he heard that the divine envoy actually asked people to arrange a play again, he even openly "advertised" inside.

It would be better if his name wasn't in it.

When Ying Zheng heard the play performed by Bai Opera Troupe, he praised the fire bed to the highest degree and did not directly substitute him. However, the Guizhou leaders agreed that the emperor in it was all him, and everyone was curious to know what the emperor and his majesty were doing. Is the recommended hot bed good or not?

Ying Zheng fell silent, and for the first time he sympathized with You'an from before. As expected, he couldn't "laugh at" others.

He couldn't blame the divine envoy, he could only blame the good eldest son Fusu for not stopping him and even helping to "deceive the superiors and deceive the inferiors".

Ying Zheng didn't believe that Fusu was completely unaware. In the past, he would inform him of any troubles, but in recent days, he had concealed the news, which was obviously intentional.

He couldn't say he was angry in his heart, but rather he had a sense of humor about his son's progress. However, the next time the divine envoy came to the palace, he still had to talk about it. If he wanted to spread the word, he didn't necessarily have to use his name. The eldest son, Fusu, obviously also not bad.
