Chapter 11 Love or Love

It will be used as a small house, an appliance room

A middle-aged man in sackcloth walked back and forth barefoot, and with his cloak scattered, he looked like a savage.

At this time, the imperial doctor (after the ceremony) Zilian walked in. At a glance, I saw that the "wild man" was doing carpentry work with a saw, and his movements were quite skillful.

Zilian frowned and said: "I said Brother Tang Jie, it's not for my brother to call you here today to work, can't you rest first?" ”

The "wild man" known as "Tang Jie" did not speak, but continued to focus on the carpentry in his hand, even if Zilian next to him called him several times, he did not move.

"Click!"

Finally, the mortise and tenon joints of the two pieces of wood in Tang Jie's hand were tightly inserted together. He put the utensils down and exhaled happily.

"Whew-"

"You're done?" Zilian, who had long been impatient, hurriedly stepped forward to talk.

Tang Xie was taken aback, and asked with a surprised face: "Huh?" When did Brother Zilian come? ”

Even Zilian, who has always been kind, couldn't help but say angrily: "When did I come, I stood behind you for a long time and called you several times!" ”

Tang Xie hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you know, as soon as I'm devoted, no one can wake up." ”

"Alas! You......" Zilian looked at his old friend like this, and could only sigh, having nothing to say.

"By the way, what is Brother Zilian calling me to do? I also promised Hesu to help him repair the boat......" Tang Xie asked suspiciously.

Zi Lianye was a little confused: "? You really don't know? Didn't you see the refugees in Longshan a few days ago? ”

Tang Xie smiled slightly: "I saw it, I have already taught them several crafts, and as long as they are willing to work in the future, they will not be hungry." ”

Zilian looked at Tang Jie's black face of vicissitudes, and he didn't know what to say, but he knew that Qin Zheng and Zhao Gao's plan had come to naught.

However, Zilian had to say: "Actually, I am also entrusted by others, and others want to see you." ”

"Oh? Who is it? Tang Xie asked rhetorically.

As soon as Zilian was about to speak, he heard a voice full of energy: "It's me." ”

The person who came was Qin Zheng, who had solved two major diplomatic matters, and what he was most concerned about now was to resist the rogues, and now the key to everything was Tang Jie.

However, for Qin Zheng's arrival, the performance of the two was completely different, Zilian had already bowed respectfully, but Tang Xie had no intention of moving at all.

Qin Zheng was a little unhappy when he saw this, although he was not the Yingzheng of the King of Qin for decades, let alone Liu Bei, who looked at the thatched cottage three times, but these days, he has become more and more important to etiquette.

However, Qin Zheng had a request for others today, so he had to lower his profile. Immediately, he gave Tang Xie a gentle bow first, and then Tang Xie reluctantly returned the salute.

Qin Zheng continued: "Master Tang, you don't blame Doctor Lian, I want to see you. ”

Tang Xie still had a cold black face, but he still spoke: "I am only a shallow learner, and I don't know what can help His Majesty King Qin, who can fight well." ”

Qin Zheng could hear that Tang Jie's words "can fight for good war" were very heavy, and it seemed that he was opposed to the annexation war he launched as Zilian said.

Qin Zheng also came into contact with some "pacifists" in later generations, and their theories were really a little similar to the Mohist non-offensive theory.

But those people mainly relied on demonstrations to appeal for these means, while the Mohists could contain the war in three aspects: speech, spirit, and technology.

When Qin Zheng saw Tang Jie's attitude, he naturally couldn't open his mouth to let him train the scouts. However, the careful Qin Zheng saw the wooden piece in Tang Jie's hand, and he had an idea.

"Let's not talk about those, I see that Tang Fuzi is processing these wooden pieces?" Qin Zheng spoke.

"Exactly." Tang Xie responded simply, as if he didn't want to say a word to Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng saw that Tang had solved the trick, so he said smugly: "Since this is the case, then I and Tang Master are also fateful." Truth be told, these two pieces of wood are the parts of the animal mill I designed. ”

“?” Tang Xie thought he had heard it wrong, and asked suspiciously: "This is designed by King Qin?" What is it used for? ”

Qin Zheng was overjoyed in his heart, and he was really not afraid of being cold, he was afraid of banning words.

Qin Zheng smiled slightly: "It was designed by me, what is the use." It is to rely on animal power to mill grains and even grind various crops such as wheat and beans. ”

When Tang Xie heard this, his curiosity also came up, and he hurriedly asked, "Really?" How to install and use? ”

Qin Zheng nodded confidently: "Of course, this is exactly what I invented to liberate the rice, and the ground grains can also be made into various foods, which are delicious and durable, and do not hurt your teeth and are easy to digest!" ”

Tang Xie was shocked when he heard this, if this thing could really do this, wouldn't the people's livelihood be much better.

"Now that Master Tang has already made the rest of the parts, I will let people install the things so that Master Tang can see them with his own eyes." Saying that, Qin Zheng waved his hand, and several craftsmen hurriedly stepped forward and began to splic.

In fact, this is not the first time they have done it, they have also made several small manual drive mills before to verify the technology. And today this is the final product.

When several craftsmen spliced again, Tang Xie was also watching intently, and his hands and feet were still swinging, as if he wanted to get started in person.

Qin Zheng also noticed Tang Jie's strangeness, and immediately spoke: "Master Tang, don't be polite, please try it!" ”

Tang Xie only hesitated for a few seconds, and then excitedly threw himself into the assembly process, it seemed that he was choking enough.

Zilian asked with some concern: "Your Majesty, can Tang Xie really persuade him to help us?" ”

Qin Zheng shook his head and said with a smile, "Isn't he helping us?" ”

Zilian was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Tang Xie who was busy and in full swing, and almost laughed.

Finally, after a long period of work, the large mill with a diameter of two meters was finally installed.

While Tang Xie was wiping his sweat with satisfaction, a craftsman moved a small donkey, tied it to the grinding shaft, and blindfolded it.

Tang asked puzzledly: "Why blindfold it, can it still work?" ”

Qin Zheng in the back hurriedly replied: "I let them be blinded, only in this way will the donkey not get dizzy." Don Fuzi can wait and see. ”

At this time, another craftsman had already brought a bag of beans and a few buckets to ask Qin Zheng and Zilian for instructions.

Qin Zheng nodded and motioned for them to start, and the subsequent scene was the most typical scene of grinding soy milk.

It's just that because the donkey drives the runner, it acts on the grinding disc after amplification, and the grinding efficiency is very high.

After a while, fresh soy milk appeared on the stone mill, and several craftsmen hurriedly went to pick it up. Although the people next to him had already seen it, they were a little excited.

And Tang Jie's expression was even richer, sometimes thinking and distressed, sometimes enlightened and excited...... A black face with vicissitudes of life, but the expression is quite exciting.

Qin Zheng hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "Actually, this device can do a lot of things, whether it is grinding or smashing.

And it can also be modified to be hydraulic, and even if you can control the power of the output, you can also make bronze and iron tools, such as a whole piece of armor! ”

Tang Xie heard this sudden change in his face, as if he was about to be angry but very entangled, and when he was at a loss, he heard Qin Zheng say seriously:

"Master Tang, I respect your Chu Mo's chivalry, but you can't help but admit that Chu Mo has paid so much, but he has failed miserably.

The struggle between the strong and the weak seems to be like that of small people, but in fact there is a huge difference. It's good to be a non-attacker, but it's not for everything. ”

After listening to Qin Zheng's words, Tang Xie temporarily suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "What's the difference?" ”

Qin Zheng looked at the spinning millstone and recalled the various theories of the sages in his previous life. Turning his head, he looked at Tang Xie with burning eyes:

The difference is that although the state is a collection of thousands of people, the individual interests of each person do not represent the interests of the state, that is, one plus one does not equal two.

If the tax is less, the people will have more, which is a good thing for each family, but the state cannot build water conservancy without tax wine, and the people who will suffer from disasters in the coming year will not have no income?

Again, the Mohists advocate non-attack, such as Zhou Tianzi was surrounded by various countries in the Central Plains, if he did not attack or not take it, the population increased, but the land remained unchanged, how to raise the Li people? ”

Tang Xie frowned and said, "You can let them go to other countries to cultivate." ”

Qin Zheng then asked: "Which one of the sons in the family will leave the one to go out?" For the one who was forced out, is this considered love? Can the people of other countries really love them? ”

Tang Jie's face was even worse, although he was still arguing, his voice was much quieter: "If everyone loves both, it will naturally be possible." Otherwise, you can go to no man's land, and you can also use His Majesty's advanced tools. ”

Qin Zheng shook his head: "I don't know how many people will die during this period?" That's why I think that to love everyone is to love no one! If love is still like this, what about non-offense? ”

Tang Xie also knew that it was too difficult for human nature to be selfish and lovely, so he wanted to hear how the "brutal" King Qin opposed the "non-offensive"!
