Chapter 133: Seeing Death as Home
Kong Yingda suddenly remembered that what he wanted to teach Chen Chu was poetry and etiquette.
In other words, no matter how powerful Chen Chu's poetry is, it still can't do without one.
In the end, I won the bet.
As he spoke, he looked at Chen Chu with an arrogant expression.
As if to say: Look, the old man is still one foot taller than the devil.
Bite!
"Congratulations to the host, the new mission has been successfully activated."
"Mission Name: Convince Kong Yingda once again."
"Reward: Gunpowder Crafting Technology."
Well?
Gunpowder manufacturing technology?
Chen Chu's eyes lit up.
This reward sounds simple.
Moreover, with the knowledge he mastered, Chen Chu was able to make simple gunpowder.
But that's about it.
The gunpowder he made couldn't even make a firecracker.
It can only be used to show burning pyrotechnics.
The effect is limited anyway.
There is still a very long way to go to reach the goal of being used for weapons.
After all, black powder appeared in the Spring and Autumn period, but it was not until the end of the Tang Dynasty that it began to be used in warfare.
With thousands of years of development history, Chen Chu could not figure it out in half a month.
But with the help of the system, it's different.
According to the urine nature of the system, the reward of this technology, which generally involves thousands of years of development technology, is a small treasure trove.
Chen Chu immediately looked forward to what new tricks there would be in this gunpowder manufacturing technology.
Thinking about it, he looked at Kong Yingda and asked, "I have already won the poetry, so how can this etiquette be considered effective?" ”
Kong Yingda stroked his beard, shook his head and said: "There is a saying in "Shuowen": etiquette, fulfillment, so God blesses it. "Zuo Biography" said: The husband's ceremony, the scriptures of heaven, the righteousness of the earth, and the deeds of the people are also ......"
Chen Chu's head was big for a while.
He hurriedly interrupted Kong Yingda: "Old Kong, stop, I don't understand what you say...... It just so happens that my inspiration has suddenly burst out in the past few days, and I have some ideas, I will write them down, and you can take a look......"
Chen Chu directly waved his pen and wrote: "Disciple rules, sage training ......"
Well?
Kong Yingda thought to herself, this kid actually wants to write about the etiquette of his disciples?
That's too much to overpower.
Kong Yingda looked disdainful.
"The first filial piety, the second sincere letter. Pan love the public, and the kindness ......"
When he saw this, Kong Yingda was not calm.
That's to put it simply!
And, it makes sense.
While Chen Chu was writing, Kong Yingda was reciting on the side.
Very catchy!
Very easy to memorize.
“…… Borrow the character and return it in time. People borrow things, don't save ......"
Writing this, Chen Chu put down the brush.
Kong Yingda was anxious: "What about below?" ”
Of course he knew that Chen Chu hadn't finished writing yet.
Chen Chu waved his hand: "I'm tired, don't write!" ”
What the?
Tired?
My mood is at a climax.
It came to an abrupt end!
Kong Yingda's eyes widened, and he was so excited that he grabbed Chen Chu's sleeve: "Boy, you are young, why can't you do this, write quickly, the old man hasn't read it yet, write quickly, write quickly......"
Seeing this, Kong Yingda already understood that this is the most suitable social etiquette for children to enlighten children, and it is better than the various ways of learning used by Confucianism today......
He couldn't wait to see what the full text looked like.
But Chen Chu waved his hand: "Lao Kong, you told me at the beginning that you couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and now, I want to send you a sentence, fat people don't eat in one bite, and when I am in a good mood one day, I will continue to write." ”
"No way!"
Kong Yingda's attitude is very resolute.
Chen Chu asked, "What about betting?" ”
Kong Yingda was stunned for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Boy, the old man lost...... The loss is convincing. ”
Five poems at your fingertips.
There is also this "Disciple Rules"
Kong Yingda suddenly found that he couldn't accept it.
Even if he doesn't admit defeat today, he will spread it out in the future, but I am afraid that he will be ridiculed by the world.
He nodded helplessly.
To lose is to lose.
Chen Chu smiled happily.
Kong Yingda asked, "Now, can you make up the rest of this?" ”
Chen Chu waved his hand: "Don't worry, Lao Kong, wait for you to help me propose marriage in front of your father, and I will make up the rest of the part and give it to you, you can tell the world that this "Disciple Rules" is what you wrote......"
Kong Yingda almost vomited blood.
He stared at Chen Chu, his hand trembled slightly and said: "Chen boy, the old man regrets the most is knowing you, if the old man dies one day, he must be killed by you, that's it, it's all to blame the old man for being greedy for profit, and he actually made a bet with you, now, I am willing to lose the bet, tomorrow, the old man will take you to the Taiji Hall to propose to His Majesty......"
With that, he turned sullenly and walked out.
Chen Chu shouted from behind: "Lao Kong, don't go, let's discuss the details." ”
"Lao Kong, don't you want tea anymore?"
"Lao Kong, remember to wait for me outside the palace gate tomorrow morning......"
Chen Chu thought to himself, this time Lao Kong was probably really depressed.
Because, according to his character, every time he came before, when he went back, he would bring some high-grade paper or tea back, but this time he left empty-handed.
Thinking about it, he hurriedly beckoned and asked Cheng Chubi to come over: "Chubi, go and call Zhu Neng and the others, and then find all the craftsmen in your house......
Whether the proposal can be successful tomorrow depends on tonight's preparations.
In a short time, there was a clanging sound in Chen Chu's yard, and the voices of people were noisy and very busy.
Until midnight, there was still no intention of stopping.
Cheng Yanjin went to check it once, and then ran away with a shocked face, pretending not to see anything, and ran away with Cheng Chubi with him.
……
Meanwhile.
The Confucian family.
Three watches in the middle of the night.
Kong Yingda has already freshened up.
The servants gave him a robe that he had just recently made.
The whole person looked sluggish.
Then he called his three sons into the main hall.
Kong Zhiyuan and the others were taken aback.
Kong Zhiyuan asked: "Dad, if you don't sleep at this moment, are you going out?" ”
Kong Yingda waved his hand: "Zhiyuan, and you brothers, don't speak yet, what your father wants to say next, you all keep it in your hearts." ”
Yes?
The three brothers looked confused.
They all looked at Kong Yingda in surprise.
Kong Zhiyuan was about to ask, but he heard Kong Yingda say: "If it gets dark tomorrow and I can't come back, you can go to the Lu Guogong Mansion and find Chen Chu...... Tell him that if he doesn't want to have a troubled conscience for the rest of his life, he will give fifty percent of the shares of high-grade paper to our Kong family...... With fifty percent of the shares, even if your brothers are not on the way in the future, it is enough to keep the family, but Dad doesn't want you to be such arrogant and lascivious, Dad hopes that you can use the money earned from the high-end paper business to collect more disciples and inherit the learning of the saints......"
Kong Yingda chattered and even a little verbose.
The three brothers of Kong Zhiyuan can hear that this is making a will.
They didn't know what was going on, because Kong Yingda didn't say it.
But they felt like the sky was falling.
For a time, the three brothers hugged their heads and cried.
In the main hall, there was a sad atmosphere.
Kong Yingda was sitting precariously, looking like he was going home.
……
(There is something to do today, only two watches, and the difference will be made up tomorrow)
