The next day.
Guo Huang followed Yi to the weapons shop, and before he even got close, he heard the sound of various beatings of metal. Although the representative advanced weapon of this era was bronze, and there was no such ancient profession as blacksmith, the forging of bronze weapons was also similar. , and some people in the Shang Dynasty already used meteorite as sharp edges on bronze weapons. Some bronze weapons are engraved with family emblems or inscriptions, and are often decorated with gorgeous patterns and patterns. They are exquisitely made and are also ancient bronze works of art.
Entering this weapons shop, Guo Huang felt like he had entered a museum of bronze art. What he visited most was the bronze Ge, which was the main fighting weapon in the Shang and Zhou dynasties. It has a sharp edge followed by an "in" (handle), which is vertical. Equipped for slashing, hooking and pecking. The Ge in the Shang Dynasty has the equations of Qu Nei, Xiong Nei and Zhi Nei. From the word "Zhi Ge" which represents peace, we can see that Ge is a weapon with a long history.
In addition to Ge, there are bronze spears, and even a weapon called "ì¯" that many people have never heard of. Guo Huang found that most of them were heavy weapons, but he didn't see the bronze dagger that represented identity and status. A shirtless man with a gray beard who looked very strong was using a stone to carefully polish the edge of a bronze weapon.
"Master, I'm here."
Yi stepped forward and greeted the gray-bearded man respectfully. The dark-skinned man who looked half a century old turned his head and said:
"That's right. I'm here the earliest today. Well, it's just right. I'm going to help melt some bronze ore into copper ingots."
"Okay, master, let me introduce you."
Yi quickly introduced Guo Huang, who was looking around at bronze weapons:
"This person is the accountant I found for you. He is literate and numerate. He is not an ordinary commoner."
The bearded man¡¯s eyes lit up and he said:
"You actually found a literate person? Quick, take me there."
In ancient times, the status of intellectuals was very high, especially in an era like the Shang Dynasty when there was no cultural achievement system. Literacy was a status symbol, not a leader of a big tribe, a slave owner, or a nobleman, basically. There was no chance of recognizing the text, so Big Beard, an outstanding weapons craftsman who was somewhat arrogant in Yi's eyes, was also losing his normal state at this moment. Yi quickly called Guo Huang over. Guo Huang put down a bronze weapon in his hand and walked over. Yi introduced himself to the two of them:
"Huang, this is my master Shi, master, this person is Huang."
Before Guo Huang could say anything, Big Beard Stone said:
"Are you really literate and numeral?"
Guo Huang nodded and said:
"Um."
Maybe an ordinary high school student in 'common knowledge' cannot read such ancient oracle bones from the Shang Dynasty, but he can even fly to the sky, and he naturally recognizes these ancient characters in his mind, as if there is some sense of indifference. Beard rubbed his hands and said:
"Let me test you. Today there is a wall five feet thick, and two rats pass through it. A rat's day is one foot, and a mouse's day is also one foot. A rat's day is twice as long, and a mouse's day is half a foot. Question: When will we meet? "
Guo Huang was stunned for a moment, and Yi was even more dizzy and said:
"Master, why do you need to consider the matter of mice digging holes?"
Shi glared at him and told him to stop talking nonsense. Guo Huang smiled and said:
"It is unexpected that a title like "Two Rats Pierce the Wall" would be heard from a weapons craftsman. They will meet in three days. In fact, there should be a question at the end of it, "How many times each of them penetrate the wall"? We need to get some more detailed figures, right? ?"
Shi suddenly laughed and said:
"Okay, okay, it's really the real thing. As long as you help me as an accountant for a period of time, I'll give you two hundred copper shells."
The invention of copper imitation shells is the beginning of Chinese metal coinage. The shell surface is convex and a shell tooth is molded into it. Due to the lack of writing, ancient numismatics experts call it "unwritten copper shell". Although it is the oldest money, its value as a cultural relic in later generations is not high. Of course, in this era, the purchasing power is very powerful. Two hundred is already It's a big number.
"I am stuck here due to some accidents, so I can only help for a few days. I will go to Chaoge in a while, please forgive me."
"Haha, it's okay. I've just been too busy recently. I don't expect you to stay in my small shop forever. Just spend this period of time."
Bearded Shi smiled heartily. Guo Huang also heard that Shi's business was usually normal, and he could do it himself. However, recently, many tribes or nobles needed a lot more weapons orders, so he felt that he couldn't do it. , just like a kindergarten child who can do arithmetic with his fingers, ??It¡¯s just a matter of numbers, and the toes are not enough to calculate the situation, so I hope a professional will come.
In this way, Guo Huang became an ancient accountant in this small town's weapons library. Guo Huang was also very interested in the forging of bronze weapons in his free time, so he followed him to learn a little bit. The bearded man did not hide his master, and asked questions Bida passed on all his experience. He originally thought that Guo Huang was just curious and would not be able to endure this hardship, but he did not expect that Guo Huang would be able to master it after listening to it once. He created an excellent bronze weapon on the first day, which made Guo Huang He, Yi and several other apprentices' eyes dropped.
Time flies very quickly, and a few days have passed in the blink of an eye. Guo Huang has helped Shi handle all the bills in the past few days, and taught Shi some accounting methods without affecting the cultural process, which is considered a reward. He taught himself the rewards of forging bronzes, and at the same time, he would not get into headaches again with other orders after he left.
On this day, Guo Huang and Yi came back from the weapons academy and took some fish home. Guo Huang didn't speak all the way, thinking about how to say goodbye and leave. He felt that he had delayed long enough and it was time to leave for Chaoge. It depends on the situation, but during this period of time together, brother and sister Yi Hexuan's affection for him has greatly increased. I'm afraid it will be somewhat sad to leave him suddenly.
"What's wrong, Huang, you seem to have something on your mind?"
When they were about to get home, Yi noticed Guo Huang's situation and asked about it. Guo Huang was about to take the opportunity to look around, but suddenly his expression changed, he threw Yi away and strode towards Yi's house. Yi also noticed the situation and quickly followed. Soon the two of them saw that Yi's hut was surrounded by many people. One group of people were neighbors and villagers, and the other group only had a few people, but there were a few heavily armed soldiers wearing bronze armor.
"what's going on?"
Yi said loudly, and suddenly his voice stopped. He looked at the top of the hut with some horror. Guo Huang heard the sound of bells blown by the wind. There were arrowheads piercing the main beams on the roof, and there was an arrow tied to the end. A small bronze bell, the wind blew, and the bell made a crisp sound in the wind. This originally pleasant sound sounded like the devil's grin to the ears. (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
