Chapter 426: Alternative Bets
"It told me!"
Zhao Yin rolled his eyes and directly stretched out his hand to the tower that had been suspended.
"Pure nonsense, this tower can't speak, how can it tell you?"
Li Er, who was originally interested, immediately darkened his face when he saw the direction of his finger.
"The son-in-law is not talking nonsense, now that the steel technology is mature, in order to increase the solidity of the building, it should be used a lot, right?"
"If you use the previous logs to build, you can greatly avoid the frequency of lightning strikes, or even eliminate them."
In order to let them understand the principle, Zhao Yin had to popularize knowledge for these scientific and technological blinds.
"Oh ......! I see what you mean, the reason why this place is often struck by lightning is because there's steel in it, right? ”
After his point, the eldest grandson Wuji suddenly realized.
It's just that he still doesn't understand in his heart, why is it lightning when he puts steel?
"Since you kid has a way, then, you are responsible for solving this matter."
Li Er said with some impatience, if this matter cannot be resolved as soon as possible, then the gossip will not stop.
"It's simple, just dismantle it and build it with wood again!"
Zhao Yin waved his hand and said lightly.
This is the most straightforward method, and it saves him a lot of trouble.
"No, if you tear it down, then everyone will think that I am at fault, so you kid, you must come up with another plan for me."
Before anyone else could speak, Li Er directly rejected this suggestion.
"Since Your Majesty disagrees, then the son-in-law can only arrest the thunderbolt and bring it to justice, so as not to cause casualties again!"
Zhao Yin pondered for a moment before he spoke leisurely.
"Aren't you crazy, or haven't you woken up? In broad daylight, what nonsense are you talking about? ”
The ministers all widened their eyes and looked at him in disbelief, and in the end, it was Li Er who took the lead in speaking.
"Since you don't believe me, why don't we make a bet?"
Zhao Yin looked around, swearingly asking, and his gaze stayed on each minister's body for a moment.
"Don't talk about that useless, you kid just say it, what method are you going to use to catch the lightning!"
The corners of Li Er's eyes twitched slightly.
This kid really doesn't miss any opportunity, but he doesn't want to think about it, the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, who dares to bet with him now?
"The son-in-law only needs an iron rod and an iron chain, but the chain needs to be tens of meters long!"
Seeing that no one was fooled, Zhao Yin shrugged helplessly and put forward his own request.
"None of this is a problem, I'll arrange for someone to prepare."
Arresting Thunderbolt has aroused Li Er's heavy interest, and he directly gave an order to Wang De behind him.
……
There has always been no shortage of anecdotes in the world, but this arrest of thunder and lightning is definitely the first time that the new daughter-in-law has been on a sedan chair.
Therefore, as soon as the news spread, the whole Chang'an was in an uproar.
It can be said that the prestige of the horse master has reached a level that everyone knows and knows in Chang'an.
Especially some time ago, he personally took command of the expedition and made great achievements, which made the people of Datang worship.
Now that they heard that the horse had a new move, everyone couldn't help but look forward to it, such a lively event was simply a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"Nephew, this thing can capture thunder and lightning? I'm not kidding! ”
Yu Chigong pointed to the iron rods and chains not far away, with a look of suspicion on his face.
"Eguo Gong, why don't we make a bet? If I can't catch the thunderbolt, how about I lose you? ”
Seeing that someone finally questioned it, Zhao Yin asked with a smile on his face.
"I've quit gambling!"
Wei Chigong solemnly waved his hand and refused.
This kid is the God of Gambling in the world, and betting with him is definitely uncomfortable.
"Courageless bandits, cowardice is cowardice, what excuse to find!"
Cheng Yanjin looked at Wei Chigong with disdain and sneered on the side.
"You can do it, Lao Tzu is optimistic about you."
Wei Chigong stiffened his neck and did not flinch at all.
"Humph! How can Lao Tzu do what you want? I don't know you like you! ”
Cheng Yanjin couldn't help but look away from him, looked up at the sky, and went out.
"Alas! Invincible is really lonely! ”
Seeing this scene, Zhao Yin sighed helplessly.
It seems that it is obviously impossible to scavenge some silver from them.
"Arrogance! How about the old man make a bet with you? ”
At this moment, Hou Junji stood up with a disdainful face.
"Lu Guogong is really courageous, is it because of the money biting his hand?"
Seeing that someone was helping him to relieve the siege, Wei Chi was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed to him.
"It's okay, then let's make a small bet on Yiqing, Wanguan silver, what do you think of Lu Guogong?"
Zhao Yin was suddenly overjoyed, and his sleepy eyes suddenly brightened.
"Superficial, do you have money in your kid's eyes? The old man has always been diligent and thrifty, and he is certainly not as good as other adults in terms of wealth. ”
"That's good, if I win, you lose my money, if I lose, I will lose my daughter to you to pay off the debt, so it's settled, the old man is here to watch, waiting for you to send the silver to my hands with both hands."
Lu Guogong said confidently.
Even if His Majesty is here, he doesn't have any scruples, he doesn't dig the foot of the wall and lose his daughter to pay off his debts, he can be a slave and a maid, right?
As for whether there will be love over time, who can say for sure?
As long as the bet holds, whether he wins or loses, he takes a big advantage.
"Lu Guogong, Ling Qianjin is not a commodity, how can she make a bet, this is too unfair to her."
Zhao Yin directly shook his head like a rattle, although he said that he was unwilling, but his heart was about to bloom.
Those who know me, Lu Guogong also!
"Aren't you kid scared?"
Seeing that he disagreed, Hou Junji took out the radical method.
"Lu Guogong, the old man is optimistic about you this time, if you don't quit gambling, the old man also wants to play with you! I really don't believe that this kid can be so evil, win every time! ”
The eldest grandson Wuji had to secretly give a thumbs up to Lu Guogong, and he could come up with such a trick, so he had to say a word of obedience.
"Lu Guogong is a little impulsive!"
"Who's to say it isn't!"
"How evil this kid is, it's not that we don't know!"
……
The ministers discussed one after another, very optimistic about Lu Guogong, and really didn't understand why he, who had always been calm, was so impulsive.
"I hope Your Majesty will testify, the minister has lost a lot of money before, and this time he will turn over whatever he says!"
Afraid that something would change later, Hou Junji hurriedly saluted Li Eryi and invited him to be a referee for himself.
"Lu Guogong, you have to think about it, don't fall into this kid's way!"
Li Er was a little embarrassed, because such a bet was really difficult for him, if he only gambled on silver, he would not hesitate to agree, but this bet on his daughter is really difficult!
