- When Zhao Hao and his son returned home, it was already dark.
When the two got off the carriage, they saw Zhao Shixi sitting on the threshold, looking straight ahead.
It looks like he has lost his soul.
"What's going on, New Year's Eve?" Zhao Hao kicked him, well, he's still alive.
"I didn't spend it" Zhao Shixi muttered, "And there's one more."
Only then did Zhao Hao realize that he still had two votes in his hand.
"Why didn't you spend it?" Zhao Hao asked with a smile.
"No banks are open" Zhao Shixi burst into tears.
"Okay, okay, don't cry." Zhao Shouzheng couldn't bear to see anyone shed tears. He wiped his grandson's face with his sleeve and said, "I have some cash in the bank. I'll give you another hundred and ten taels of pocket money. It's all done."
"The places where you spend money are all closed" Zhao Shixi cried even more aggrieved, wailing:
"Grandpa, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to spend it in this life."
"What are you talking about, kid?" Zhao Shouzheng hurriedly patted his head and consoled him:
"This life is still long, there is always a chance to spend it"
Zhao Hao secretly rolled his eyelids upon hearing this, is there anything so comforting?
Sure enough, instead of feeling better, Zhao Shixi threw herself into his uncle's arms and burst into tears.
He shook his head, ignored the corrupt nephew, and led Zhao Shizhen into the hospital.
??~~
The yard was quiet.
Zhao Hao originally thought that Wu Yang had gone out to have a party with the same year and had not returned yet. Unexpectedly, he poked his head into the west room out of habit, but saw Wu Yang lying in front of the desk, each focused on studying.
Wang Wuyang and Yu Shenxing were practicing Shi Wen. Yu Shensi asked Hua Shuyang a question in a low voice, while Wang Dingjue held his head and thought hard, not knowing what question he was struggling with.
Today is the New Year¡¯s Day holiday
Zhao Hao couldn't help but secretly gasp in surprise. A top student is a top student. Seeing how they usually play around and have a wide range of hobbies, they seem to have no serious time.
But learning is my biggest hobby.
When Zhao Shizhen saw that they were studying behind his back again, he couldn't stand the scratching in his heart anymore. He whispered, "Uncle, there's nothing else to do. My nephew is also going to read a book."
"Well" Zhao Hao nodded and laughed softly: "It's really something."
Zhao Shizhen had no choice but to follow Zhao Hao to the east room.
Before leaving, he glanced at the shadowy scholar inside through the window and felt as if he had lost his wallet
But when the two of them entered the house and got on the kang, after hearing Zhao Hao explain his plan, Zhao Shizhen immediately felt that the lost wallet was back, and someone had stuffed several coins into it. Heavy and very satisfying.
Because Zhao Hao wants to design something.
What is the purpose of his study? Isn¡¯t it just for making inventions?
Zhao Shizhen stared at his uncle drawing pictures on the paper with a pencil; he listened to his explanation with his ears open, fearing that he would miss a word.
"This thing consists of three parts. A bottomless cylinder with twelve small round sticks as thick as a finger. Then there is a lotus root piece that can be put on the round stick and move in and out of the cylinder freely. Finally, there is a The root passes through the small hole in the cylinder and is connected to the three-foot-long rod"
As Zhao Hao spoke, he drew the last stroke and said: "That's probably it"
Looking at the ghost drawing symbols on the paper, he was quite ashamed of his kindergarten-level drawing ability.
"Is that so? Is that so?"
¡°But I couldn¡¯t resist Zhao Shizhen¡¯s natural ability to understand. Not only could he read and understand it completely, but he also drew a very standard design drawing for him.
"Yes, yes, that's it!" Looking at the familiar briquette mold on the drawing, Zhao Hao happily patted his eldest nephew's thigh and said: "You are such a fucking genius! In the future, my Italian cannon will be It was made by you!¡±
Of course, considering the actual situation of hand casting, he omitted the sleeve outside the long rod. In this way, although it is a little troublesome to make coal cakes, it does not affect the quality of the finished product.
"This looks like a mold for making cakes." Zhao Shizhen looked at the drawing and said, "I can make a wooden one first and ask my uncle to see the effect."
"That's what I mean." Zhao Hao smiled and nodded. After seeing the Zhuge crossbow and cannon-shaped fireworks made by Zhao Shizhen, he had no doubts about his eldest nephew's ability.
??~~
Zhao Shizhen worked very quickly and was busy all night.
Early the next morning, I gave the finished wooden mold to my uncle for inspection.Zhao Hao pulled the wooden handle and saw that it could stretch and retract freely. He couldn't help but said with joy: "My nephew is so clever and handy!"
Zhao Shizhen smiled shyly.
Wu Yang, who was waiting on the side, looked at the wooden mold curiously, wondering what it was for.
"If you want to know, come to the backyard with me." Zhao Hao put on his shoes and went to the ground with great interest.
In the back courtyard, Gao Wu had already asked people to push a cart of pulverized coal and pile it there according to Zhao Hao's instructions.
Next to the pulverized coal, there is a pot of loess, a pot of slaked lime, and a pot of sawdust.
Zhao Hao commanded the guards, dug out four pots of pulverized coal with a shovel, added water, slaked lime and loess and stirred them evenly.
After completing these preparations, Mr. Zhao went into battle in person.
I saw him dipping the mold tube in water and placing it in the mixed coal slurry.
After compacting it with both hands, Zhao Hao lifted the mold and moved it to a clean place to rest it.
Then he pressed his abdomen against the pole, lifted the cylinder with both hands, and a briquette that was as big as the mouth of a bowl and looked like an oversized lotus root segment was ready.
"Okay!" Wang Wuyang immediately took the lead and shouted loudly.
Zhao Hao threw the mold to Gao Wu and asked him to continue the same process, and then asked Wang Wuyang: "What's so good about it?"
"It looks good" Wang Wuyang shrank his neck. In fact, he didn't understand it yet, but he couldn't delay cheering for his master.
"What's so good about it?" Zhao Hao took the handkerchief from Yu Shenxing and wiped his hands.
"Look at his round hole, it looks like a white lotus root overwhelming the mud." Wang Wuyang said with a smile.
"Your lotus roots are black." Zhao Hao rolled his eyes at him.
Several junior brothers burst into laughter, making the senior brother very embarrassed.
But the face of the eldest disciple still needs to be given. Zhao Hao then changed the subject and said:
"Then let's call it 'coal lotus root' in your own words."
The disciples couldn¡¯t help but be envious.
Especially Hua Shuyang and Wang Dingjue, they saw that they named their sect like this last time, and they did it again this time.
I couldn¡¯t help but sigh secretly, why didn¡¯t we get started earlier and let us be the senior brothers?
Wang Wuyang was so moved that tears filled his eyes. Master really doted on him too much
He secretly made up his mind that from now on, no one would let his master wash his crotch, and he would wash it for his master for the rest of his life.
??~~
"I think Master made this coal lotus root for burning." Shandong people are not that carefree, and the fifth junior brother's focus is still on the coal cake.
"Well, it's not food." Zhao Hao smiled and nodded.
Amidst the laughter of the senior brothers, the fifth junior brother blushed and said: "What I mean is that burning it this way is definitely better than burning it loosely, but I can't guess what the benefit is."
"Then let's take a closer look tomorrow morning."
Zhao Hao ordered Gao Wu to mix sawdust into the remaining coal slurry, then carry the prepared coal cakes to the kitchen and bake them on the stove.
This way the coal cakes will be ready tomorrow morning.
"Otherwise, it would normally take two or three days to dry in the sun. Mr. Zhao doesn't have the patience to wait."
??~~
It¡¯s still morning now, Zhao Hao is racing against time, so naturally he can¡¯t waste it in vain.
He asked Zhao Shizhen to take the finished mold to the blacksmith arranged by the eldest princess
Because all the blacksmith shops were closed during the Chinese New Year, Zhao Hao could only ask his godmother to make arrangements.
When the two of them, led by Ji Sizheng, arrived at the house of the craftsman named Feng, they explained their intention.
Hearing this, the corner of the other party's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but protest to Ji Sizheng: "Father, I am a silversmith, not a blacksmith who does rough work"
"There's nothing you can do about it. The royal family doesn't open a blacksmith shop, so your business is the closest." Ji Sizheng said with a kind and irresistible smile:
"You can even make silverware, so of course you can make ironware."
"That's not the same thing, father-in-law" After all, his arms couldn't hold his thighs. Feng Yinjiang whined, but he lowered his head and said, "You just give it a try, little man."
