Xiong Huai looked at his teeth in shock, originally wanted to use the theory of ghosts and gods to come up with two secret recipes, on the one hand, to avoid the ministers from asking east and west, asking where this idea came from, on the other hand, he could also strengthen his authority and use ghosts and gods to establish his prestige.

It's just that I didn't expect to trigger a large number of discussions, arguing the reality of dreams and ghosts.

Xiong Huai inexplicably thought that there were so many legends of ghosts and gods in the Chu Kingdom, in addition to Taoists and witch doctors spreading rumors, would the Mo family, who admired Tianzhi Ming ghosts, also intervene in it.

Also, was the superstitious King of Qin in the Qin State influenced by Qin Mo to become so superstitious?

Zhao Yu heard the compromise of his teeth, and after thinking about it, he also felt that it made sense, if he didn't even experiment with the secret recipe, then he would directly push the King of Chu back, which would indeed damage the face of the King of Chu.

So he bowed and said, "King, please experiment with the secret recipe to verify the authenticity of the dream." ”

Hearing that the two agreed on the authenticity of the secret recipe for the experiment, Xiong Huai was immediately relieved, and he didn't have to bother anymore.

Xiong Huai said with a solemn face: "Do the two virtuous people know how the glass is made?" ”

For this question, he has not given in: "Back to the king, it is said that in the past, Fan Li had asked the sword casting master Ou Yezi to cast a sword for the king of Yue, when the sword was cast, a delicate object appeared at the same time, and then the king of Yue left the sword, and named this thing Li to reward Fan Li. Later, Fan Li made Li into jewelry to the beauty Xi Shi, Xi Shi was given to King Wu by Fan Li, the jewelry was named Liuli, returned to Fan Li, this piece of glass should be the earliest glass. ”

"According to the Mo who traveled in the Qi country, there was an incident of counterfeiting beautiful jade in the Qi country, and later it was discovered that the beautiful jade was counterfeited with colored glass, and this person was forced to say that the method of making beautiful jade was based on the principle of the five elements, trying to practice gold through objects such as stone and soil, although he did not practice gold, but inadvertently practiced colored glass."

"Because the man didn't know the glass, he saw that the glass was similar to the jade, so he used the glass to fake the jade."

He thought about it, shook his head and said: "As far as I know, there are only two ways to get the glaze, but whether it is sword casting or alchemy, you can't get the glaze under normal circumstances, this thing is natural and cannot be forced." ”

Xiong Huai was dumbfounded.

The wisdom of the masses was really strong, and at this time alchemy appeared, not only alchemy, but also counterfeit products.

Xiong Huai suddenly had another idea in his mind, since alchemy has appeared, then alchemy will be far away, if this is to lead the trend, vigorously develop alchemy, and lead the nobles of various countries...

Thinking of this, Xiong Huai shook his head vigorously and threw out this terrible thought, this is a magic box, it's too terrifying, it is enough for the Chu State to support alchemy, alchemy is still forgotten.

Getting back to the point, Xiong Huai Zhengse said: "It is precisely this principle, among the five elements, the native gold, except for the gold of my Chu State, which appears from the water, other minerals such as copper and iron, aren't they all obtained from stone and soil!" ”

He agreed: "What the king said is reasonable, everyone thinks so, but now no one has practiced gold." ”

Zhao Yu asked, "Great King, could it be that the secret recipe passed down by the fairy is alchemy into alchemy?" ”

Uh...

Xiong Huai stagnated.

It's a little far, and the widow wants to say that the glass is coming.

Xiong Huai shook his head and said, "No, it's a secret method for refining glass." ”

His eyes lit up and he asked, "I just asked the king, what is the secret method passed down by the fairy?" ”

Xiong Huai smiled and said, "It's the fine sand in the river." ”

He asked expectantly, "What about the king's next recipe?" ”

Xiong Huai shook his head and said, "The fairy only said that the fine sand is the same, Qing and the others can try to add a small amount of other things." ”

The road of glass has a long way to go, and Xiong Huai knows so much, so he can only let Zhaoyu try it slowly.

Xiong Huai continued: "As for the second secret ingredient, that is to make paper. ”

"Paper?" Zhao Yu asked.

It's something new.

Xiong Huai nodded.

Paper is something Xiong Huai has wanted to make for a long time.

It is not easy to study in these years, not only because no one wants to teach, but also because no one teaches, in fact, it is not, Confucius has carried out private education, there is no class, and private learning has long appeared.

And now the famous Jixia School Palace is the largest official school in the world, and the talents are prosperous.

So it's not that no one has taught these years, and it's not that no one wants to learn, the carrier of key knowledge is wooden tablets, which is not easy to write, not to mention, and the price is expensive, the cost is huge, and ordinary people can't afford to learn.

Even the people who write books and speak try to cut out unnecessary words in the face of things like wooden tablets, let alone other people.

The carriers of knowledge are expensive, and a large part of them are directly excluded from learning.

This is the key to the difficulty of civilians in coming out of the way.

It is difficult for civilians to get ahead, even if the Shiqing Shilu system is defeated, it will still form a family gate.

Nowadays, countries can change the system because of the talents of other countries, not their own civilians.

The lobbyists who travel around the world are either from home school, or have money in their families to support their education.

Therefore, if we want to fundamentally change this situation, we still need to spread knowledge to the common people, and only after the spread of knowledge will the choice of talents be diversified.

And the cheapening of knowledge, or the cheapening of talents, is the time to launch a clarion call against the aristocratic gatekeepers.

Before that, it was only possible to rely on the nobles of the Chu State, and then absorb talents from other countries as much as possible.

"The so-called paper..." Xiong Huai thought for a moment and said, "It's made of bamboo or hemp." ”

"Bamboo? Hemp? He asked, "I just asked the king, how should it be made?" Is it like alchemy, grilled in a kettle? ”

Speaking of how papermaking came out, Xiong Huai thought for a while and said: "Chop the bamboo or hemp, and then put it in the water, and then there should be bamboo pulp, and then take out the bamboo pulp, and then you can do it yourself..."

Xiong Huai shook his head, where do he know how to make paper, he can only take it for granted, let them get it themselves.

The widow believes that the wisdom of the masses is unlimited.

"Uh..."

Zhao Yu and Ji Yan responded to the King of Chu with a bewildered expression.

It sounds simple, so go for it.

······

On the afternoon of this day, a news spread in Yingdu.

The news that the king of Chu dreamed of a fairy falling from the sky last night quickly spread all over the streets and alleys of Yingdu, and this news was complemented by the news that the king of Chu planned to build a crystal palace but put it on hold because of lack of money.

After the news spread, except for the royal family of the Chu Palace watching the jokes on the sidelines, most people thought that the King of Chu was planning to recruit beauties to enrich the harem.

For this reason, all kinds of strange things happened in Yingdu, and the two world friends who were originally good friends suddenly turned against each other and cut off contact.

There are also two families who were originally unhurried to carry out the marriage process, but suddenly accelerated the process rapidly, and in the evening, they were only sent to the cave house.
