Chapter 110: Do You Want to Get Rich?
Jing Hua invited again, and Xiao Han agreed. Fusu saw two women on the street, and they were both women with outstanding appearances, and he was afraid of causing trouble, so he sent two guards from his house to accompany him.
The two guards often follow Fusu in and out, and they have had some contact with Xiaohan, and they have a good impression of this easy-going and smart woman.
Gao said with a strong face: "My surname is Peng, and my name is Peng Runtu." His surname is Ding, and his name is Ding Mancang. The girl can call us Peng Peng and Ding Man. ”
Xiao Han pursed his lips, they remembered this story.
The short and thin one didn't like to talk, but smiled and nodded, and when he smiled, his face was folded, and his eyes could barely be found.
The posture of Jing Hua on the horse is very handsome, and she also wore a very neat outfit today. The black blouse has a wide red rim and the sleeves are tightened, much like what people call arrow sleeves. The bloomers are also black. Unlike the red dress of that day, the so-called deep coat curl.
The people of this Great Qin like black, and most of their clothes are simple. But in Xiaohan's understanding, it is because everyone is very busy and has no time to do complicated looks, such as Sister Artemisia, who has been busy all year round, she can't wait to find a piece of cloth and put it on her body.
Jing Hua is also very amorous when she rides on a horse, she ties her hair loosely behind her head, and as long as she moves, the broken hair on both sides will flutter and flutter. In accordance with the law, she did not wear any jewelry, but the rope that tied her hair was more complicated, which was considered a decoration.
Xiao Han is still wearing blue and gray men's clothes, which is the most suitable outfit in the barracks. She tied her hair up high and wore a headdress of shields and arrows, like a man's crown of hair. It's just that today it's the shield facing forward, and the decorative effect is more obvious.
She wears a Tianhuangshi button around her neck, which sometimes falls out of the collar, and with her fair skin, it is oily and beautiful.
It was left over from making a poncho for Fusu, and she casually tied it around her neck.
Today's trip, it is said that Jinghua, a local who is hospitable, is accompanying her, a foreigner. In Xiao Han's view, it is she, a foreigner, who passively responds to the enthusiasm of others, and she really does not have a strong need to go shopping with a woman who has only met once.
Maybe she's really not very good at getting along with women, and she often can't find a topic to talk about. Women are together, talking about clothing, she is not sensitive to style, she is only sensitive to color, talking about husbands, each family has its own situation, there is nothing to talk about, it is better to talk about children, but there are many taboos, you must not show that your children are better than others, nor can you compare height and talent, so that after calculation, there is really nothing to talk about.
Fortunately, Jinghua is very enthusiastic, and she was counting which restaurants in the city cooked dog meat and which cooked chicken meat was delicious. What are the interesting facts about these delicious foods? It seems that Fusu's joke that day was remembered by others, and she is a foodie in the eyes of others.
In Jing Hua's eyes, Xiao Han is a woman worth befriending. Looking at the appearance of Gongzi Fusu's baby, Xiao Han will definitely have a great future in the future. And she's smart enough to judge the situation. Seeing that the atmosphere is not right, open your mouth and say those words that make people relaxed and happy. This is much more clever than deliberate ridicule and persuasion.
The two of them just talked, responded, pondered each other, and arrived at the city of Fushi.
Xiao Han estimated that this place was less than ten miles away from Daying. Much of the living supplies in the camp depend on the nearby city of Fushi.
Xianyang has no city walls, and is surrounded by mountains on three sides in an open residential area, where there are city walls and city towers, at first glance, it really looks like a movie location.
As the seat of the upper county, the population of Fushi is still quite large. The streets are still clean, and the manure of mules and horses is collected by special collectors to fertilize the fields. It is said that throwing garbage on the street is a crime and is punishable, or you have to pay for it.
Looking at the miscellaneous historical anecdotes, it shows that the Qing Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty once had a saying that "there is no toilet in Beijing", and the whole city of Beijing can be seen everywhere, and the smell is stinking in summer. It can be seen that in public management, the Qin Dynasty has made great efforts.
Jing Hua wanted to take Xiao Han to one of the best dog meat shops here, Xiao Han thought about it, so let her be. She wasn't interested in dog meat, and it was not bad to buy it for Fusu and those brothers. Just pointing out, a few people came in front of him, a person who was escorted was very strange, no eyebrows, his nose was very collapsed, it should be a broken nose bone, he dragged his feet and walked, like a zombie in "Plants vs. Zombies", behind him were two listless errand soldiers, following him all the way out of the city. The escort did not run away, but went on obediently. Behind them were a few children chasing after them, and then there were adults chasing the children, trying to get the children back.
Xiao Han asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Jing Hua said: "Look like that, you want to kill it." ”
"Kill?"
"Hmm. That person may have been a leper and had sinned, so he was to be thrown into the river. You see, the vassals who perform this kind of thing are also quite reluctant. ”
"Oh." Xiao Han has seen again today, the Great Qin Law has different punishment methods for crimes committed by special patients.
"Is there an evaluation process for this person's condition?"
"Yes, you have to make a record and verify the report. That's what my uncle did. ”
Xiao Han stopped talking. She now understands why the treatment of death row prisoners from shooting to anesthesia is a civilized progress. Earlier, Charles I was guillotined, and by the seventies of the twentieth century, there was no death penalty in England.
The dog meat shop has arrived. Business is booming. They were excited to see Timon and Peng Peng's appearance. The shopkeeper was a man in his fifties with oily twists, the hair on his head was very thin, and he bared his teeth when he saw Jinghua coming in: "Jinghua girl is here!" ”
Jing Hua twitched the corner of her mouth casually. pointed to the meat on the case and asked Xiaohan if he wanted to be fat or thin.
The meat is marinated very well and looks very appetizing. But because it was dog meat, it made Xiao Han feel uncomfortable. She said to Timon, "You decide, buy one for the evening, buy more, and eat with the brothers of the guard." ”
Ding Man and Peng Peng were very happy. The two discussed how much to buy.
Jing Hua was very curious, why is this little Han girl so natural when she talks about her brothers? And the two guards were not so respectful in front of her, but they were still very serious. What is this girl's background?
She really wanted to ask how she got in love with a noble person like Fusu, but she could only think about it, not ask.
After buying dog meat, Jing Hua asked what else to buy, Xiao Han thought about it and said that he wanted to buy some linen. Jinghua took her to buy linen cloth again, and picked it around. Xiao Han didn't pick it, he paid and left, there are no fakes in this era.
What's more, she doesn't need to be good, she just needs to be able to use it. She's going to get ready for her next period.
In this era, it can only be so extravagant. Otherwise, there would be no dignity.
Jing Hua also wanted to take her to see rouge gouache and the like, but Xiao Han couldn't think of anything to look at. She asked, "Sister Jinghua, have you ever seen aloe vera anywhere?" ”
"Aloe vera?"
When Xiao Han saw her dazed look, he didn't say anything. Skincare plan cancelled.
"Sister Jinghua, let's go to the pottery workshop and have a look." When I opened my own store, I cared about what was going on in other places.
The group of four went to the pottery shop.
When I arrived at the pottery shop, the shopkeeper also knew Jinghua, Xiao Han thought to himself, is this because of the old residents, or because of the wide range of travel?
She didn't say what to buy, just said that she wanted to take a casual look, and the shopkeeper who received her was a little disappointed and sullenly stayed aside.
This is also the pattern of the front store and the back factory, but it is not as large as the scale of the Ying Ren master. In the end, it is not as good as Xianyang, and the craftsmanship is still a little rougher. However, it made Xiao Han discover something new, in fact, it was said to be a new thing, and it was also covered with dust. It's just that in Xiao Han's eyes, it is very "fresh".
This new thing is an amphora jar of white pottery. It's called white pottery, but it's actually gray, and the white one isn't beautiful enough. As for the glaze, it is thin and grassy. There is an ochre-colored paper pattern on the surface of the jar, and the painting work is also regular. If this were the 21st century, it would be precious, but now in your hand, it doesn't look good.
"Master, this jar is made by your family?"
"Hmm." The shopkeeper replied sullenly.
"Master, I want to visit your workshop."
The shopkeeper was stunned, what is this woman in men's clothes going to do? Looking up at Jing Hua, Jing Hua smiled and nodded, and the shopkeeper said, "Please go inside." ”
When he arrived at the workshop at the back, Xiao Han went to see other people's blanks and glazed barrels. She bent down to examine it carefully, and the shopkeeper simply sat on a stone, and simply picked the old skin on his hand when he had nothing to do.
"Master, what kind of blank is that gray-white jar made of?"
The shopkeeper looked at the girl who was talking boredly and said, "I haven't done it recently, there are some in the corner, you can go and see it." ”
Xiao Han went to look at the corner. A small pile of gray-white clods of dirt was piled up there. She picked up a small piece and broke it with her hand, and the powder fell off. This is similar to the quality of the kaolin found by Fusu.
"Master, where did you find this ingredient?"
When the shopkeeper heard her ask, he didn't want to deal with her. Seeing this, Jing Hua said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Tu, this is my friend, from Xianyang, she wants to come to our place to have a look, and I don't know what good things we have here." You see—"
The shopkeeper said irrationally: "It was dug out of the back slope." ”
Jing Hua smiled brightly and said, "Thank you, Brother Tu." ”
When Xiao Han heard this, he was upgraded from "Shopkeeper Tu" to "Brother Tu", which must have mastered important information, and he hurriedly said thank you.
When I came out, I bought a clay pot from someone's house, which was considered to comfort the shopkeeper's expectant heart, and the group was going back.
Jinghua sent them out of the city gate, saying that she would not go back and would live at home. I'll see Miss Xiaohan another day. Xiao Han also thanked her for her company.
She didn't invite Xiao Han to her home, Xiao Han thought, I'm afraid there are some inconvenient situations in her home for outsiders to see, of course, this is Xiao Han's personal conjecture. What is the relationship between her and Meng Tian, she doesn't bother to care, it's just a story of a lonely man and a restless woman.
And what about her and Fusu, she thought, is the story of a lonely woman and a restless man.
The world is so big, it's either men or women, that's all.
Finding kaolin was her biggest takeaway today. She asked Mu Mu about the origin of Guanyin soil, and Mu Mu's description was the same as Lao Deng's description, and Xiao Han speculated that it was near Tongchuan. Now, the place where she is located, Fushi, is close to the Hetao area, is it Yulin in Shaanxi? Yulin is indeed a place where kaolin is produced, and she already knows this. If it was Yulin, would it be possible to find a coal mine? Is the loess layer above the coal mine thick? Is it easy to peel off?
She was excited. She needs to hurry to Fusu and tell her about her new plan.
Fusu just attended the pre-war mobilization meeting presided over by Meng Tian and came out of the venue. Many generals were very excited on their faces, and Fusu thought, if there was no incentive from military merits, maybe they would be like this, this is the state of soldiers, which is completely different from the people.
Xiao Han stood in front of the door of the barracks where they lived, stretching his neck and waiting for him. It warmed him.
Sometimes he thinks of her like a child, such as when she is fascinated by things, and sometimes he thinks of her like a person who has gone through vicissitudes, such as when he talks about the people of the country. She was like a bewilderment, and she couldn't help himself.
In short, he just wanted to mess around with her for so long.
"What good things to buy?" Fusu came over and scratched her nose first.
Xiao Han dodged, but didn't dodge. "Don't mess around, I've got something down to you."
"Serious again? I'm not enough, you know. ”
"I know, it's not about the law or anything, it's really a good thing!"
She hurriedly encouraged him, she was afraid that what had happened these days would scare Fusu away.
"A good thing? Let's talk about it. Fusu made a horizontal movement of his neck, as if he was ready to meet the slash.
Xiao Han dragged him down, pushed the door open, and said coquettishly: "Fusu, I want to help you get rich!" ”
Fusu was stunned for a moment, Xiao Han rarely spoke in this tone, he thought that Xiao Han would not be coquettish or despise coquettishness, and he would dare to love her. Well? Why? He couldn't help but be vigilant.
As soon as Xiao Han saw that his strength was a little too much, he blinked his eyes, returned to his normal state, and asked seriously as if he was sitting in his own office: "Say, do you want to get rich?" ”
Fusu twisted his eyebrows and looked at her, and then reached out suspiciously to touch her forehead, and then touched his own, still not understanding what was wrong with her going to Fushi?
Could it be that he has fallen into evil?
"Go!" Xiao Han jumped up and slapped his hand down, "I'm fine, you just need to listen to me obediently." ”
Fusu smiled, this is her normal state, and she jumps up when she is in a hurry.
"Okay, you name it!"
Xiao Han opened her mouth, took a deep breath first, to be honest, she couldn't hold back her head and laughed, she let herself be quiet, looked at Fusu word by word and said, "We're going to get rich!" ”
Fusu amused her solemn appearance, is it so important to get rich?
Xiao Han was a little dissatisfied when he saw his expression, in fact, he was not dissatisfied with Fusu, but dissatisfied with herself. She didn't find the right entry point when she spoke just now, and the guy on the other side was indifferent to wealth.
"Fusu, I found kaolin today, that is, Guanyin soil." She tried to seduce him as calmly as she could.
"Didn't you find it a long time ago?"
"That's different! Although it is the same soil, how much labor does it take to transport the materials to Xianyang Road, and how much transportation cost does it cost to wait for the porcelain to be fired and then transported to sell to the Huns? Besides, we want to do business with foreigners in the west in the future! If we mine Guanyin soil in Fushi and fire ceramics on the spot, you think about how much cost you save, and the part you save is earned. How good is that! ”
When Fusu heard this, he nodded. He has never used his brains to make money, but the reason is still very clear.
"Also, it's likely that you'll find coal here!"
"Coal mines?"
Fusu's puzzled look made Xiao Han pause, hasn't this guy ever seen coal? In winter, she burned wood in the Hu family, could it be that he, the prince, was too? Wasn't coal mined a long time ago?
"Fusu, a black stone that burns, have you ever seen it? It can be used for cooking, iron smelting, and copper smelting. ”
"A black stone that can burn? It seems that it is not called coal, but every. Xianyang also used it at home, but it was mainly firewood. Therefore, the people of Yan use it more, and they use it to smelt copper. ”
"Every? That's supposed to be called differently, but that's okay, there should be something like coal here, but we haven't seen it yet. ”
Fusu asked suspiciously: "How do you know that there is, you haven't seen it?" ”
Xiao Han thought about it, what to say. After a moment, she said: "Fusu, the book I read says that the kaolin in the north is generally associated with coal mines, and if you find kaolin, you can almost find coal mines in that area." ”
Fusu nodded, as if he understood. But why hadn't he read the books she read? Why are their ancestors so capable? He didn't think about it and asked, "Xiaohan, is this taught by your seniors again?" Why are your seniors so powerful? ”
Xiao Han closed her eyes, this guy inquired again, she thought for a moment and said: "Fusu, everyone has their own strengths, your ancestors are committed to governing the country, so they all learn the art of the emperor, and my ancestors are committed to the mountains and forests, so they learn the principles of nature." Isn't that normal? ”
Fusu nodded and told Han that she had convinced him.
In fact, he really didn't believe it, after getting along for so long, what did Xiao Han's expression mean, could he still not know? It's just that Xiao Han doesn't say it, there may be her troubles, and if she inquires too urgently, it will only stiffen the relationship between the two of them.
Let's pretend to understand! Someday she will tell him.
"Fusu, I have another idea."
"Say." Fusu had become accustomed to her saying, "I have another idea. ”
"If you open a mine, it's better for Ramon Tian to join in."
"Why, are you afraid that I can't afford to pay? It doesn't have to be that big in the first place, right? ”
Xiao Han shook his head and said, "There are two understandings, you can choose whichever you choose." The first is to earn money together and share blessings, just for feelings; Second, by tying Mengtian's interests to yours, he is helping you and investing in a prospect. ”
The words were already so plain, Fusu glanced at Xiao Han deeply. Xiao Han's words are right, so to speak, based on the relationship between the two of them.
But to put it so plainly, it still made him uncomfortable. It's as if the two of them are locked up in a small dark room and engaged in a conspiracy.
Xiao Han helped him, he was happy, but in this way, he felt that the two of them had become career partners, rather than happy and simple couples.
After thinking about it, he said as calmly as possible: "Xiaohan, I want you to be my lover simply and happily." ”
Xiao Han was stunned for a moment, she reacted, she was a little too much just now. You can point it out less clearly and let him realize it himself.
She bit her lip, knowing that it wasn't an apology, but she didn't know how to say it so as not to hurt their relationship.
With what she knew, she really couldn't be a simple and happy woman.
Fusu saw her embarrassment, gently rubbed her hair, and held her in his arms. "You don't have to worry about me all the time." Even if I can't realize my ambition, I can also be a rich idler, go to places we haven't been, and see scenery we haven't seen. What's the point of thinking about those heavy things all the time, and we're still so young, and our hearts are going to get old and stiff? ”
"I know, I know." Xiao Han nodded in his arms, she could only say that she knew, but she didn't dare to say that she couldn't do it.
The two hugged for a while, and Xiao Han changed the topic, "Fusu, is the tax on mining very heavy?" ”
Fusu thought for a while and said, "It seems to be half and half, and the government and the mine owner each take half." ”
Xiao Han nodded, it's really a heavy tax!
However, she said, "It's good, you're going to be a big taxpayer soon, you're contributing to the country." ”
Fusu rubbed her hair lovingly, how could he not understand her thoughts?
