Chapter 172: Peter's Ability

"Oh Almighty God, I have finally seen you, dear friend!"

Back at the inn, before Liu Xi and Zhen Jiang had seen them, Peter, the second heir to the Alexander family of the Roman Empire, had already pounced excitedly.

Yuan Chang quietly took a few steps back, flashed Peter's hug, and asked puzzledly: "Peter, is it because my greeting is not good, looking at your anxious expression." ”

"No, no!"

Peter shook his head quickly and said with a wry smile: "Yuan, it is because of your thoughtful greeting that I feel sad. Every day here, I don't have to do anything, I just go to sleep after eating and drinking, and I go to sleep and eat and drink. Oh God, if it had been before, I would have thought that such a life would only be in heaven. However, after all I have been through, I feel that if I don't find something to do, I will really go crazy. ”

Now, Yuan Chang understood. Feelings Peter because of the ** life of the **, bored, want to find something to do. Indeed, let a person eat, drink and be merry all day long, and after a long time, he will feel uncomfortable.

"Peter, but your language is different from ours, and you can't communicate with anyone but me. And I'm too busy to teach you our language. Oh, by the way, Peter, what are you going to do?"

When Peter heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Yuan, you are asking the right person." I tell you, I can do a lot. In our country, there was once a great man, his name was Archimedes, and I don't think anyone can compare to him except God the Almighty. Many of his theories and methods are very magical. For example, the principle of leverage he said is really amazing, as long as he uses this principle, any adult can put a thousand pounds of boulders where he wants to put them. Also, I see that the people in your country are really stupid in their way of getting water, and Archimedes once designed a water lifter that could make it easy for anyone to get water. Anyway, Yuan, I will have a lot of things, you hurry up and let me do something, otherwise I will really go crazy. ”

Yuan Chang secretly swallowed his saliva, and secretly said in his heart that this Peter was really a talent, worthy of being the second heir of the Alexander family.

Archimedes was a man from 280 BC, equivalent to a figure from the end of the Warring States period. His theories and research can be said to be unique, and he has been involved in the fields of philosophy, science, mathematics, physics, mechanics, etc. In terms of scientific design, Mo Zhai of the Mohists can be compared, and in terms of philosophy, Confucius and Mencius of Confucianism can be compared. However, consider the number of fields that Archimedes has been involved in, which shows his ability.

Now, with someone in front of him who knows Archimedes' theory and research, how can Yuan Chang not make good use of it?

Yuan Chang smiled like a wolf grandmother and said kindly: "Oh, my dear good friend, you are so powerful, I have to admire." Do you think it's okay to write down Archimedes' theories and research, and then I will slowly teach you the language of our country, and then you will translate it as a task I gave you, what do you think?"

"Oh, Yuan, you are really a good friend of mine. Thank you so much, and I was surprised that you were willing to teach me such an amazing language in your country. By the way, there is also the paper made in your country, which is really amazing, and it is really convenient to record things. Like our country, things are written in sheepskin or carved into stone. Come on, Yuan, hurry up and let me know about your magical country!"

As he spoke, Peter couldn't wait to pull Yuan Chang into his room and let him teach him the Chinese language.

Peter's ability is still good, and it didn't take long to learn the greetings such as "You, me, him, hello, everyone, goodbye" and so on.

Yuan Chang believed that with some advanced theories of the West and the extraordinary creative power of the Chinese nation, the Oriental Dragon would take a big step forward. Peter, on the other hand, was one of the most important intermediaries. Fortunately, Peter was the second in line to the line of Alexandria in Rome, so he had a lot to learn to enrich himself. If it were ordinary Roman people, it would probably be useless.

After an hour of study, Peter was able to speak some Chinese proficiently. The two of them also felt a little tired, so they stopped to rest.

"Yuan, the wine in your country tastes really good. However, the wine of our country also tastes good, so if you have the chance, let you taste it. ”

Yuan Chang smiled lightly at Peter's words, it was not that he had not drunk Western wine before crossing over. However, after all, it was people's kindness, and Yuan Chang was still happy to accept it.

"Peter, what else do you have besides Archimedes?"

Yuan Chang felt that Peter should have other things, such a talent could not be let go, and he must do his best to squeeze him dry for Huaxia's use.

"In addition to Archimedes, we, the heirs, also have to learn etiquette and the idea of how to be an heir. However, the etiquette of your country is not simpler than ours, so I will not be ugly. And your country is the emperor's largest, and our country is usually the pope's largest, so our country's philosophy is not suitable for your country. ”

Yuan Chang and Peter drank wine and chatted happily.

It can be seen that Peter is also a drinker, and when it comes to wine, he can always talk non-stop. And Yuan Chang listened on the sidelines, admiring a sentence or two from time to time, which made Peter even more excited.

"Peter, do you know how to make wine?"

As a person who loves to drink so much, if I don't know how to make wine, I'm embarrassed to tell others that I like to drink. ”

Peter nodded and said smugly.

Yuan Chang's eyes rolled, with a treacherous expression, ** said: "Peter, you have been in our country for so long, haven't you thought about going back?"

Peter's expression was gloomy and he sighed, "Yuan, of course I thought about going back. However, the journey from your country to our country is a long way. Now that your country is at war everywhere, where can I go? besides, if I leave your country, I will have to go through Kushan and rest, and their country is hostile to ours, and if I pass through their country, they will not let me go. ”

"Peter, of course you can't do it alone. But if you have a bunch of guards, aren't you afraid you won't be able to return to your country?"

Peter smiled helplessly, and said with a bitter face: "It takes so far to go back to my country, and you may be killed, who wants to go with me?"

"Peter, someone in your country has said, 'Money is not everything, but no money is everything.' 'If you have enough money, are you afraid that no one will go back with you?'

Peter's eyes lit up, then darkened again, and laughed at himself: "If it weren't for your good friend Yuan, maybe I'm still just a slave now, where can I get so much money?"

Yuan Chang smiled treacherously and said: "Peter, don't you know how to make wine? Many people in our country like to drink, just like Hong Fei and Fengxiao, if you brew your country's wine and sell it, they have never tasted the taste of your country's wine, won't everyone come to buy it? When the time comes, when you make enough money, won't you be able to ask guards to protect you and return to your own country." ”

"Oh!"

Peter prayed sincerely, hugged Yuan Chang, and said excitedly: "Yuan, you must be an angel sent by God to point me home." My dear dear friend, if I go back, I will definitely not forget your friendship. ”

Afterwards, Peter and Yuan Chang discussed.

There are several types of liquor that Peter makes, such as wine, rum, and beer. The grapes are gone in this season, and the raw material of rum is sugar cane, which is just in season. However, the raw material of beer, Khubu, can be grown all year round, and of course, there will be a choice of places. However, if there are materials, it will be easy to do.

In the end, it was agreed that Peter would be responsible for the technology, and Yuan Chang would give him financial support, and the future profit would be half for each person. After Yuan Chang and Peter finished discussing, they both drank to celebrate.
