Chapter 21 The Mongol Mansion Visitor

Of course, the luxury of the Meng family is not only reflected in the door, but also in the lobby, with two rows of lacquered wood tables neatly placed on both sides, wine and meat have been placed on each table, and four maids stand on one side of the table.

Meng Wu was not at home, Meng Fu sat on the top with a golden knife, and when he saw Zhao Qi coming in, he first laughed, and then leaned forward with his hand on the table, and said to Zhao Qi who had just entered the door: "Boy, I heard Tian'er say that you have a lot of alcohol and can have a tie with Wang Qian, but today the old man is not convinced, but I want to see how much you can fit in your body of less than four feet."

"Zhao Qi has seen Grandpa Meng." Zhao Qi bowed and saluted, and then said, "Grandpa Meng, don't humiliate the kid, Ah Tian was drunk early that day, where do you know what happened later, the kid drinks better than Ah Tian and Ah Ben, but compared with Uncle Wang, it is difficult to beat." Zhao Qi was very depressed, these people didn't know what to think, they had to test the amount of alcohol with a child, wasn't that bullying? The stomach is there, and no matter how much they can drink, they can't compare to their old foxes who have lived for half their lives.

"Hahaha, you kid is very clever in talking, the old man went to Lu Buwei's house last time, but he heard a lot of things about you, hurry up and sit down to share with the old man." Meng Fu stroked his beard and snorted, and stretched out his hand to signal Zhao Qi to sit down.

Zhao Qi felt that he had a big face, it stands to reason that he doesn't need to be treated with the etiquette of a guest when he goes to someone else's house at his age, just as a junior to give a gift to his elders, but he didn't expect Meng Fu to be so formal.

This time Zhao Qi was a guest, and he was supposed to sit in the farthest position from Meng Qi, but who knew that Meng Qi was actually unhappy, and kicked out Meng Tian, who was sitting next to him, leaving only Meng Yi to pour him wine, and then let Zhao Qi sit next to him.

Zhao Qi was helpless, so he could only shake his head and sit down, but he secretly said in his heart: It seems that I have to get drunk again today. Thinking of this, he felt that it was a wrong decision to give Hong Sanbao a holiday, who would pick him up after this guy was on vacation?

Meng Tian's house is really exquisite, but the food is not much better than Wang Qian's house, once you drink, there must be cold dishes, mutton, the processing is not as good as Wang Qian's family, it is estimated that it is fished out in the Ding and served directly, full of mutton smell, and the mutton next to it is still pickles.

Meng Yi waited to pour wine for the old man Meng, and Zhao Qi had a maid standing next to him to help him pour it, most of the maids at this time were slaves, and they were forced to work as maids in these big families because of their livelihood, and basically had no human rights, so it was common for young masters of wealthy families to bully maids in this era. As long as this kind of person is a little bigger, there are always a few in the family, so it looks like Lu Buwei's family is like a clear stream.

Zhao Qi picked up the wine bowl and said to Meng Fu in front of his eyes: "The kid is only ten years old, and he came to the Meng Mansion to treat him as a guest, the kid is ashamed, this bowl of the boy first respects Grandpa Meng." After saying that, he brought the bowl to his mouth and drank it all.

In addition to proving that he is a good boy who understands the rules, he also has a purpose, which is to show Meng Fu his absolute trust. In this era of chaos like multigrain porridge, who can guarantee that others do not have the intention of harming you? And now that Zhao Qi has replaced Meng Fei's grandson Meng Tian as the "first smart child in Xianyang", who dares to say that Meng Fu has no compassion? Zhao Qi is expressing this idea to Meng Fu: Lao Tzu believes that you will not poison me! Of course, he is not afraid that Meng Fu will be poisoned, the most unaccustomed thing to Jiangmen is this kind of villainous behavior, people have thousands of ways to make themselves disappear from the world, why choose this worst one?

After drinking the wine, Zhao Qi smashed it and smashed his mouth, not to mention, although this wine is not as good as Wang Qian's family, but the entrance is a little sweet, but the degree is much higher, Wang Ben and Meng Tian saw that he was actually enjoying it, and his face was as black as the bottom of the pot.

Meng Wei naturally saw Zhao Qi's little things, gave him a thumbs up, and then laughed and drank the wine on his table. After drinking, he wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and said to Zhao Qi while Meng Yi poured him wine: "Boy, I heard Lord Lu say that you can run at the age of one, read and write at the age of two, and have novel thoughts, amazing bones, and can be good at writing and martial arts, what do you think of your Uncle Lu's evaluation of you?"

"Although what my Uncle Lu said is true, there is nothing surprising about it, it was rumored in ancient times that a child was born to be able to go to the ground and speak, the kid was just a little earlier than others, as for the bone surprise boy naturally didn't understand, he could be good at writing and martial arts, when it came to poetry and classics, the kid was not as good as Meng Tian, when it came to horseback archery, the kid was not as good as Wang Ben, and when it came to the art of assassination, the kid was not as good as Zhang Han, so the kid thought that the kid was only suitable for playing smart." Although Zhao Qi felt that what Lu Buwei said was right, he still had to pretend to be humble on the surface, the Chinese people have admired this kind of virtue since ancient times, and the old man of the Warring States was naturally not surprised.

Meng Fu stroked his beard, and when he heard Zhao Qi's first sentence, he frowned, but when he heard the words behind him, his brows immediately stretched, and he thought: Yes, he is a good boy. But he didn't comment on Zhao Qi's words, he picked up the wine bowl and drank it with his head up, and then said slowly: "Good boy, yes, you haven't been held up to the sky by the glory of this body, but the old man thinks that what your Uncle Lu said is reasonable, you are indeed the smartest child the old man has ever seen."

Zhao Qi arched his hand to express his gratitude for his affirmation, and then picked up the wine bowl and drank the wine in the bowl.

"Born into a person who can do and speak, I just listen to it as a myth, no one has seen it, don't take it seriously, you kid is real, it's not surprising to say that you are a demonic old man, just your self-created 'gymnastics' physical training skills can bear the title of 'Xianyang No. 1'." Meng Fu held up the case and continued, "Do you remember that Old Man Yu said that there is a set of physical training techniques suitable for sergeants? These days, you make some preparations, and when you have studied thoroughly, come to Mengfu, the old man will be the first batch of experiments. ”

"Kid got it." Zhao Qiqi nodded, he didn't think there was anything wrong with this, he had long planned to use the methods of exercising the body and the training of special forces in the future in this era, to establish a group of special forces in the real sense, but this is a long process, it is difficult to achieve it with his ability alone, and now with the support of Meng Fu, it will be much easier, and he can produce the best of the first batch of experiments, after all, the training process of special forces that he understands is through TV movies and books, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no accidents.

After this matter was settled, Meng Fu also became more cheerful, and then he chatted with Zhao Qi about some inconsequential topics, and even the old immortal was still sighing: "You kid and old man love it very much, but you are not my Montessori person, if only the old man had a granddaughter, it would be good to be related to your kid."

These words frightened Zhao Qi and didn't dare to speak, just drinking, and said in his heart: Fortunately, you don't have a granddaughter, otherwise you will suffer again. As far as Meng Tian and Meng Yi's appearance Zhao Qi can think of what Meng Yi's granddaughter looks like, their family is the kind of boxy national character face, which looks very resolute on the man's face, but if a woman has this face shape, it is really "like a flower" like jade, whose girl wants to use "perseverance", even if she has no face.

After three rounds of drinking, Meng Fu suddenly remembered something and asked Zhao Qi: "Boy, when the old man went to find Lu Buwei, I heard him say what 'paper' you are studying?" This old man of parchment has seen it in the hands of the northern barbarians, but what is this 'paper'? The old man couldn't figure it out. ”

"This 'paper' is the tool for writing, 'paper' is the name of the boy, and 'zhang' is the unit of measurement, so it is called ' Paper', this thing kid has been made, parchment is not worth mentioning in front of this thing, although it is not as tough as parchment, but it is a very convenient tool for leaving words, this thing is cheap, as long as the waste silkworm chrysalis and rotten cloth strips can be made, and the handwriting is clear, with it, there are brushes and ink, the paper is yellow and white light, the brush dipped in dark ink can be written on the pale paper, and the kid dares to assert that this thing has not faded after thousands of years. Since Meng Wei asked, Zhao Qi naturally wanted to understand clearly, after all, paper is a thing that can change the cultural tradition of an era.

Meng Wei is a smart person, he can imagine what this paper is, after listening to Zhao Qi's introduction, he frowned, he heard Lu Buwei tell him about this matter, he was still skeptical, but listening to the meaning of this kid seems to have been studied, this has to be believed, if it is really as Zhao Qi said, the meaning of this thing is not difficult for him to imagine. And he dared to conclude that Zhao Qi didn't intend to donate this thing for nothing, so he turned his head to look at Zhao Qi, and said seriously: "If this thing you said can be promoted, the old man can't imagine how much impact it will have on the existing way of writing, as long as it is beneficial to Daqin, it is a good thing, the old man only hopes that the kid will not be blinded by lard, and he will be down-to-earth."

"It's not so easy to popularize paper, there is a thing called habit, once people get used to something that has existed for a long time, they will become dependent, so the kid thinks that only young people will try this thing, and most of the old people will still write in the previous way." Since Meng Fu said it, Zhao Qi can only express his own opinion, "As for making money, the kid is not an overly greedy person, this kind of thing should be handed over selflessly, but the kid has no relatives, he can't have a fief before the age of fourteen, and he can't live in Uncle Lu's house for a long time, making money just wants to build a residence in Xianyang, leaving some foundation for the Zhao family, and the kid will also be black-hearted to make the people's money for nothing, and the kid plans to buy raw materials with one-half of the income as a cost." ”

Meng Wei nodded, he was very satisfied with Zhao Qi's approach, as long as this kid was not carried away by money and ran to become a merchant, he had nothing to say, everyone knew that a merchant was the lowest person except for slaves, and he would not allow a person who could prosper Great Qin to be destroyed on the copper smell. It's human nature to buy a family business for his family, and he understands it.
