198 The Origin of the Cave House
Su Mengfu and Li Gang left satisfied.
Li Shaoyan immediately asked, "I heard that you have created something new?" Call matches, right? β
Lin Lingsu immediately gave a demonstration to Li Shaoyan.
Li Shaoyan said: "Matches, use them on the battlefield, the best." β
Used on the battlefield? Li Shaoyan really has a military vision, and it can be seen at a glance that this thing can be used on the battlefield.
Zong Shu's ideal has not yet been made, and once it is put into the battlefield, the power is huge.
Li Shaoyan said that this match is much lighter than a fire sickle. The key is to hit it with one stroke, and when the fire sickle hits the fire, you need to hit it hard.
A dozen hits may not be able to catch fire.
For small troops, concealment is the best, and it may be possible to expose the troops because of the fire sickle.
Li Shaoyan can think of this, he is already very good.
"Matches are a good thing. However, this thing really can't make money! Zong Shu said with a smile: "If you hand over the match business to Liang Shicheng, you will definitely lose money, and you won't be able to get rid of it when the time comes, hehe." β
Matches are a good thing, can't make money? Isn't that a paradox?
Zong Shu no longer explained the reason: "Then you can see it, haha, Liang Shicheng will be notorious!" β
If the match business loses money, Liang Shicheng will be in a dilemma.
Want to put your match business to a halt? Your Majesty doesn't agree, such a good business, can't you Liang Shicheng do it?
But everyone can't figure out why matches don't make money.
Since there is no money to be made from making matches, why bother to extract phosphorus from night incense and make matches?
Probably, only phosphorus can be proposed in the night incense, and the reason why Zong Shu took the trouble to make it was to no longer go to the palace to collect the night incense.
β¦β¦
Zong Shu took the Great Song Academy of Sciences to invent a new type of fire sickle-matches, and instead of doing such a lucrative business, he gave it to Liang Gonggong.
A lot of people don't understand.
There are also some people who think that this is Zong Shu's cleverness, how much money is the end?
If you don't have a good relationship with the upper echelons, you have to spit out as much as you earn.
Zong Shu gave the match business to the royal family, and the other businesses of the Zong family would be more popular and reliable.
So after it was hot for a while, it gradually cooled down.
And the other thing, the heat has not diminished.
That is, Zong Shu threatened in front of His Majesty: to let one of his hundred disciples, Su Yi, participate in the examination, and he will be the top student in high school.
Zong Shu also said at the time that the champion of the Great Song Dynasty is a fart, and under his guidance, as long as it is a person, he can be admitted.
This is an insult to all champions since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty.
In Zong Shu's eyes, the champion is still a fart and a person.
Not to mention the champion, and other readers, in Zong Shu's eyes, are not even farts, not even people.
Zong Shu is simply the enemy of the world's readers!
The first illiterate in the capital, so despise the champion, and despise the world's readers!
First of all, the officials wrote letters one after another, demanding that Zong Shu be severely punished for his bad behavior of contemptuous of the imperial examination and the imperial court's talent selection system.
Huizong did not think much of these letters and did not send them.
He and Zong Shu have a gambling game, and with this gambling game, he can earn one million taels of silver from the Zong family.
If you deal with Zong Shu now, Zong Shu will quit the gambling game, won't it be all in vain?
The second is that the people from all over the country who gathered in the capital to prepare for the meeting were angry.
In addition to discussing poems and quizzes together, denouncing Zong Shu became an important part of their gathering.
After denouncing it for a few days, there was no movement from Zong Shu, so everyone started to listen to Su Yilai.
It doesn't matter if you inquire about this, the scholars feel that this is the first absurd thing in the world, and a person who hates traditional classics and is dedicated to studying science and technology can be admitted to the top prize?
So the scholars all said that they must pass the test level and resolutely not let Su Yi be the champion!
Even, Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, also organized a grand party, and basically all the people in Beijing participated.
A representative of the group took the stage to make a statement, and finally put forward an initiative:
In this examination, anyone whose ranking is lower than Su Yi is not worthy of being a lifter, and he will never participate in the examination in the future.
All the lifters signed their names on the silk, because they believed that they could be ranked ahead of Su Yi.
The lifters all believe that Su Yi must be at the bottom of the rankings this time.
This time, let Su Yi know that it is really not difficult to be the first to be the first in the exam.
Zong Shu didn't know that the lifters had turned the sky upside down, and as soon as they went out, they took at least two people with them, Zong Shen on the left and Su Bu on the right.
On this day, Zong Shu was walking on the street, accompanied by two scholars, causing many people to come out to watch.
Cao Zongshen was carrying a bird cage, and a bird stood on Zong Shu's shoulder.
The two birds, one black and one white, are the pair of small golden eagles that Xiao Xiaoxiao gave to Zong Shu.
Zong Shu asked for a few days from Zhuzhu to get along with him for a few days.
Zong Shu felt that the little golden eagle should be taken care of by him and Zhuzhu in turn, so that it could increase the relationship.
For Zong Shu, this pair of little golden eagles is connected to Xiao Xiaoxiao at one end and beads at the other.
The hostels of all sizes in the capital are full of people from all over the city, and when they see Zong Shu coming out, some people point their fingers.
One was Zong Shu's earliest scholar, who followed Zong Shu to the Northland, rescued the Seed Master, captured Yelu Bucai, and was given the glorious title of "Great Song Dynasty Warrior" by the emperor.
Another scholar is Su Yi, Su is not difficult. It is he who is ready to beat everyone and win the champion in this talent ceremony.
Seeing Zong Shu swaying and not caring, taking the two birds with the unique steps of the evil and evil, the hatred of the students suddenly rose.
Why is this guy so rich?
Why can this guy be the protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven and the grandmaster of the crown prince?
This guy can't even write well, and he can't even memorize the Analects, so why was he given the same Jinshi background by the emperor?
This guy bewitched His Majesty again, and directly gave him the identity of a craftsman!
That's not all, this guy threatened to let this craftsman take a few more steps and directly become the champion!
Fortunately, Chen Guoting and Li Ruoshui served as the main and deputy examiners this time.
With these two people in check, it is impossible for a craftsman to win the champion!
Seeing Zong Shu's look of being embarrassed when he walked, everyone wanted to see that Su Yi was ranked first from the bottom, and this guy could not be so arrogant.
Zong Shu was walking sideways with the two of them and two eagles like crabs, and suddenly a person turned out in front of him, it was Cai Xiu.
After Cai Xiu stood up, some lifters also came around.
Zong Shu stepped forward and said with a smile: "Cai Xiu, it is said that you are either practicing the "Oiran Treasure Book" at home or secretly practicing the "Sunflower Treasure Book", why do you have time to show up today?" β
Cai Xiu was already familiar with Zong Shu's way of speaking, and he didn't understand it very well, but it was obviously not a good word.
Oiran he understood, but as for what kind of sunflower it was, he didn't understand.
"Zong Shu, I congratulate you in advance," Cai Xiu glanced at Su Yi and said: "There are four joys in life, a long drought and a sweet rain, when you meet old acquaintances in a foreign country, when you spend candles in the cave room, and when you are named on the gold list." I wish Su no difficulty, high school champion! β
When Su Yi heard it, Cai Xiu was sarcastic about him.
"Cai Xiu, if you don't have culture, don't show off," Zong Shu said with a smile.
Cai Xiu was so angry in his heart, he was actually laughed at by Zong Shu, uneducated? How can I say that I have been admitted to the lifting of people seriously, and I am about to take the exam!
"Don't be unconvinced, let me ask you, what is the origin of the word "cave room?" Zong Shu asked.
Cai Xiu took out the folding fan and was confident: "The word cave house comes from Sima Xiangru's "Changmen Fu" in the Han Dynasty: hanging the bright moon to shine on itself, and staying in the cave room at night. After the Tang Dynasty, the cave house evolved into a special name for the newlyweds' new house. β
"Good solution, good solution, Brother Cai is really knowledgeable!" A bunch of lifters immediately gave Cai Xiu a rainbow fart.
"What a fart! How did the cave house come about, is it so complicated? Zong Shu said: "The cave house is the house that can enter the cave!" β
Okay, okay, a bunch of people shouted hello, it was the proprietors, the buddies, and the idle tea customers of the shops on both sides of the street.
Zong Shu smiled proudly, look at this young master's explanation, how down-to-earth!
