"Zong Shu, why don't you go to the palace to collect night incense?" Wang Hao asked.

It seems that Wang Hao has to give Zong Shu a little color today.

"Because, I don't have to go anymore." Zong Shu said.

Zong Shu strongly supported Cai You to take over as the Privy Council, which made Cai Jing's disgust towards Zong Shu a lot less, "Zong Shu, you won't really let Yexiang turn into silver?" ”

"Cai Xianggong, I really let you guess correctly." Zong Shu looked at Huizong: "That's right, I did, let the urine give birth to silver." ”

No, how can feces and urine have any value other than fertilizing the fields?

Zhao Gou also added a sentence that day, selling the night incense to the manor for fertilization, which cannot be counted.

Wang Hao's face suddenly became ugly, and he asked about Liang Shidao.

Liang Shidao nodded with dark circles under his eyes.

No, Zong Shu really extracted something from his urine?

Just like he instructed Lin Lingsu to come up with iodine and make iodine?

Zong Shu took out a small piece of hard paper from his arms, which was painted with a layer of dark red.

Then he took out another wooden skewer, one end of which was wrapped in a red substance.

Zong Shu picked up the wooden skewer and scratched it on the piece of paper.

A flash of fire burst out, and one end of the wooden stick caught fire.

So easy to ignition?

"This is very easy to operate, Your Majesty, you can try it." Zong Shu handed Huizong a small wooden skewer.

Learning from Zong Shu's appearance just now, Hui Zong scratched the piece of hard paper, and one end of the wooden skewer caught fire again.

Cai Jing, Chen Guoting, Li Ruoshui, and Wang Hao also came to try it, and the results were all one!

This is much easier to use than the fire sickle that everyone usually uses!

The operation of the fire scythe is very troublesome, requiring the fire scythe to cut the flint in a tangential shape, and the sparks that pop out will spray at the fire brow in clusters.

When the spark falls on the firebrow, it ignites the firehead, and then blows the firehead to burst into flames.

The fire sickle slices the flint, usually four or five times out of ten, and each time the spark collapses, it may not cause a fire eyebrow.

Zong Shu's new invention of this new type of fire sickle has a success rate of 100 percent.

And it is small in size and simple to operate.

Zong Shu said: "This we call it a match. The match head can also be dipped in wax, and the wax can be peeled off when used. In this way, it can be protected from rain and water. ”

As soon as I heard this, everyone's eyes lit up!

Such a convenient thing must be more expensive than a fire sickle.

The point is that this thing is extracted from urine.

How much is urine worth? It's not worth the money!

Therefore, the business of matches is really a million profits, zero profits, and a lot of money!

Produced by Zongshu, it must be a high-quality product.

Whether it is monosodium glutamate, fifteen incense, or warm pavilion and cool pavilion, the things invented by Zong Shu, without exception, have become hot goods.

Monosodium glutamate and fifteen incense have become high-end gifts for people's daily exchanges, and warm pavilions and cool pavilions have become the standard for successful people such as officials and businessmen.

Well, this match, needless to say, is about to become popular in major cities and even towns.

It is conceivable that "matches are used wherever there is water in wells".

The people present all saw the value of matches, and couldn't help but sigh, Zong Shu is really amazing, no matter how useless it is, it can become a treasure in his place.

Huizong asked how this thing was made, and Zong Shu said that everyone's urine contains a material element: phosphorus.

Phosphorus is extremely flammable and can spontaneously ignite when exposed to air. This is actually what we often call ghost fire.

After the human bones decay, the phosphorus element will precipitate out, and it will spontaneously combust when it encounters air.

That's why a slight wipe of the match head can cause a fire.

What Zong Shu didn't tell everyone was that phosphorus was extracted from urine, which was also occasionally discovered by a Western alchemist named Brand.

At the beginning, Huizong asked Zong Shu to go to the palace to collect night incense, and the reason why Zong Shu agreed was because he had plans to extract phosphorus.

As long as phosphorus is extracted like iodine, it will immediately have various applications.

For example, it can be made into phosphate fertilizer to increase crop yields.

When made into laundry detergent, the washed clothes are definitely much whiter than soap pancreas.

Zong Shu led Lin Lingsu into the palace to collect the night incense, Lin Lingsu didn't ask why at all, because he knew that Zong Shu must have new ideas.

However, he couldn't think of anything that could be extracted from the urine.

When Zong Shu instructed Lin Lingsu in extraction, he told him about the characteristics and characteristics of phosphorus.

In the end, it was finally extracted, and Lin Lingsu sighed that what alchemy he had learned before was purely trying his luck.

Where is it like Zong Shu, what you want to extract, you know in advance.

Many monks discovered that there was a ghost fire in the cemetery, and some took out rotten human bones from the tomb and practiced it everywhere.

Dare to be affectionate, there is phosphorus in human bones.

Lin Lingsu, like most alchemists, only knew that bones emitted ghost fire.

But why this happened, Lin Lingsu didn't know.

This master of mine is very knowledgeable and boundless like the sea.

Zong Shu extracted phosphorus from night incense and made a new generation of ignition tools, matches.

The matches will definitely be a big seller, so what Zong Shu said about "turning feces and urine into silver" has also been realized.

From then on, Zong Shu no longer had to go to the palace to collect night incense.

Cai Jing no longer despised Zong Shu as much as before, and always thought that this kid was trying his luck.

But after so many coincidences, Cai Jing had to admit that Zong Shu was indeed unique in the direction of the art of 100 crafts and the direction of learning from things.

In the past, Cai Jing thought that Zong Shu was a copper bowl bean that could not be flattened or broken, but now he is a well-deserved little expert in making money.

Zong Shu's "Linjiang Immortal" was used by him at the beginning of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which became a world-famous lyric work.

If Zong Shu follows this path, it can be expected that in the near future, Zong Shu will become a master in the literary world.

Judging from what Zong Shu did, Zong Shu only wanted to be the leader of all kinds of workers.

The ability is not small, but the pattern is too small!

Cai Jing actually admired Zong Shu, and at the same time had a regret of being overused.

Although Zong Shu cheated the Cai family a lot of money and lost a lot of face for the Cai family, Zong Shu saved Cai Jing's family after all.

Coupled with Zong Shu's praise for his eldest son Cai You above the court, Cai Jing greatly enhanced his good impression of Zongguan.

Chen Guoting took the match skin and looked at it, scratched it again, and the flames lit again.

"There are saints who make fire, drill flint to make fire, in order to dissolve the fishy shame, and the people are pleasing to it, so that the king of the world, the name is called Suiren's." Chen Guoting sighed: "With this match, Zong Shu is comparable to the Suiren clan." ”

Chen Guoting immediately forgot what Zong Shu said just now, "Yushi will eat", it seems that this match really shocked him.

Huizong looked at Zong Shu's eyes, as if he had seen a beckoning cat.

This kid is really doing what he does, what he does to make money, and he is really a good hand at making money.

Thinking of silver, Huizong immediately thought of Zong Shu's cooperation with the imperial palace, and the prince made a fortune from repairing the warm pavilion and selling charcoal.

Except for a small part left in the East Palace, the rest of the silver taels were handed over to Empress Liu, which greatly improved the life of the Hou Court.

This match, is Zong Shu also going to cooperate with the prince?

"Your Majesty, in order to make matches available to more people, I have decided to hand over the technology of producing matches to Your Majesty." Zong Shu said.

"No, it can't be handed over to Your Majesty, how can Your Majesty have anything to do with feces and pee, uh, Yexiang?" Zong Shu thought for a while and said, "I will hand over the full set of techniques to Grandpa Liang without reservation. ”

Zong Shu's attitude changed too suddenly!

Prior to this, Zong Shu strongly opposed Liang Chengshi taking over Tong Guan's position, sarcastically mocking him as a eunuch, which was almost equivalent to a slap in the face.

And now, suddenly I have to transfer all the skills of making matches to Grandpa Liang!

Handed over to Liang Gonggong, it is equivalent to giving a cash cow to Huizong.

But it's not good for you to give it to someone, you have to give it to Liang's father-in-law? Even Huizong was a little strange.

Liang Shicheng felt that such a good thing would fall on his head? "Zong Shu, why did you hand over the match business to me?"

"It's very simple, Liang Gonggong has been guarding the night incense for three days and three nights, witnessed the birth of matches throughout the whole process, and has mastered all the technical processes."

Zong Shu said very seriously: "The royal tribute, the quality of the night incense is better, it belongs to the tribute, uh, the tribute, naturally it cannot flow into the people." In addition, match-making techniques cannot be passed on, so Liang's father-in-law's room can be used as a night incense research room and match-making room. ”

Huizong actually smiled and agreed!

"Father-in-law Liang, the great cause of collecting night incense in the palace is officially handed over to you today. I believe that in the development process of the night incense industry in the Great Song Dynasty, the name of Liang Gonggong will be forever in the book! ”

Zong Shu's words made Liang's father-in-law's face very complicated, as if he had eaten a piece of.
