Alchemy in ancient China has a long history, developed by the Han Dynasty and reached its heyday during the Tang Dynasty, with the goal of pursuing immortality and turning inferior metals into precious metals of gold and silver. Both of these are scientifically absurd, but they are a joy in this day and age.

The emperor of the Tang Dynasty probably also had the attitude of believing that he had something or not, and made great alchemy. Most of the pills refined contain mercury and arsenic, containing toxins, and there are many examples of deaths from poisonous pills in the history of the Tang Dynasty, and even a generation of Ming Emperor Tang Taizong was killed because of this. This is limited by the scientific level of the times, and there is no way to explain it. Look at this princess Huaisi, it stands to reason that if you follow the way of traditional Chinese medicine, your body will not be so weak, and the princess has a transcendent status and is blessed, so she will not take some refined pills. But these pills can be said to be useless for curing diseases and saving people.

On the contrary, it will cause endless harm, of course, he is just a guess, except for this reminder, the rest can only be powerless, as for whether this princess will listen to herself, this is unknown. Alchemy is messing around with chemicals like this, and the biggest contribution to future generations is gunpowder, and if you want to find this gunpowder, you have to find those alchemists. I came out this time to find out the whereabouts of this gunpowder, but now I am penniless, and I can't buy it if I find it, so I have to wait for time to come back again.

The soft evening breeze blew gently, and my mood was calm and lonely......" In the somewhat strange eyes of others passing by, Yi Bo hummed his own little song and went home. When I returned to the door of my house, I saw Wang Fu talking to a few villagers dressed up, because of the distance, I couldn't really hear it, but a few villagers seemed to be asking for someone, Wang Fu looked a little impatient. I faintly heard what seemed to mention the name of Xiaoyan. Could it be the maid Xiaoyan who served next to him, shook his head, the affairs of this mansion have always been handed over to the housekeeper Wang Fu to take care of, and he is also happy to be idle, too lazy to ask.

Following the route in my memory, I returned to the room, only to find that Xiaoyan had an anxious face, and hurriedly got up from the low stool and greeted her: "Young master, you can be regarded as back, Madame has come twice, saying that the young master has not recovered from his illness and went out, so angry...... Yi Bo saw the darkness under her pretending to be happy, and knew that her mother must have scolded her, a little embarrassed: "Actually, I just went out for a walk, and then I got lost, and I just turned around a few more times...... I'll go and tell my mother later, I'm already well" Xiaoyan also stepped forward at this time, only to find that the young master's robe before going out was gone, and when he wiped his hands, he found that Yi Bo's hands were faintly bloodstained, and he probably understood something, silently changed Yi Bo's clothes and wiped the blood stains on his hands.

The children of the rich and noble families in ancient times really enjoyed it, and there were people waiting for them to wash their hands, and their own family was a small official family, and those wealthy nobles didn't know how luxurious they were. Seeing that the little girl was a little silent, Yi Bo found something to say: "Xiaoyan, I don't want your help with this handwashing and dressing thing in the future, I am not so pampered......" "But is there anything Xiaoyan did badly, the young master said it, I will definitely change it......" Xiaoyan replied.

"Well, no, I think you're too tired to do this, and I want you to take a break, well, a long, long time later, a child of your age will be pampered by his parents......" Yi Bo described the era that had gradually drifted away from himself.

"Does the young master want to dismiss Xiaoyan...... I did something wrong, young master, you tell me, I will change it......" Xiao Yan said this, tears already flowing. It's really getting darker and darker, Yi Bo's head grew in an instant, looking at the little girl's pear blossom with rain, I didn't feel pity in my heart, as if I saw the shadow of the girl who had been calling her brother in her previous life, and hurriedly walked over and gently scraped her little Qiong's nose, "Such a clever and cute little girl, I can't bear to give it away......"

Xiao Yan gradually stopped sobbing, raised his head, and said lightly: "Can the young master agree to my little request......" "Hmm" Yi Bo looked over a little strangely, not knowing what to do with this little girl. "Young master, young master, can you stop going out to mess around, everyone, everyone is very anxious about you, this time, seeing the blood stains on the young master's hands, my heart is cold for a while, what is going to happen here, then what should I do......" Xiaoyan said as she spoke, and her words were already crying again. Indeed, just like this time, if you really have a three-long and two-short, in this era, the master is dead, and the slave and maid will not have a good end, and will be resold and sold, and the desolation and suffering in this are not something that a little girl can bear.

"The young master didn't go out this time to mess around, he went out to fight the bad guys, okay, I promised that I wouldn't go out with people at will in the future...... By the way, the young master wants to go out, and you girl won't help the young master, prepare a little silver, but this time I didn't buy anything...... Yi Bo said. "I thought the young master was just walking around the house...... I never thought that the young master would go out......" Xiaoyan said embarrassedly. Xiao Yan looked at the bronze mirror next to him, a delicate wooden hairpin was inserted on his head, and a black hair hung down like a waterfall.

"Well, it's a reward for you to take care of the young master so carefully, my mother didn't punish you too much, I know that you have suffered a lot of grievances, it's okay, the young master is now reborn......" Yi Bo looked at the wooden hairpin, but a pretty and lovely face appeared in his mind, and then shook his head, dispelling the thoughts in his heart. Isn't it a bit immoral to give what you give to yourself to someone else like this? However, Xiaoyan is also his own person, so he will store it here first, and get it back if he wants to take it later. Sticking it on your head is conspicuous, and you don't have to spend time looking for it. Yi Bo comforted himself like this.

The little smoke here is also laughing, after his young master woke up this time, it was like a different person, and he was kind to himself, and he bought himself a hairpin, and his heart was warm. "By the way, Xiaoyan, I was at the gate of the mansion just now, and I saw that some people seemed to mention your name, do you know what is going on...... Yi Bo suddenly thought and asked his own question. Xiao Yan's face flashed with gloom, and he said in a low voice: "Don't hide it from the young master, this is Xiao Yan's original family ......" "Oh, they want you to go home...... This, I completely agree, although a little reluctant to you, a child of your age has to go home and be pampered......"

Xiaoyan shook his head: "The young master laughed, how can a poor girl like Xiaoyan be pampered, it is difficult for a poor girl to marry, and it is also my blessing that I can sell it to the Wei family...... Why does the family want me to go back...... "At this time, the marriage of the Tang Dynasty attaches great importance to the dowry, so it is rare for ordinary poor girls to find a good family, but people like this girl must have good looks, have a figure, and be ingenious, and the female workers are proficient, so they should not worry about getting married."

Yi Bo also asked the question in his heart: "Xiaoyan, you look so beautiful, if you really put it outside, there should be a lot of people who come to the door to propose marriage......" Xiaoyan looked over a little strangely: "Does the young master think I am beautiful......"

Yi Bo looked at this, apricot face and peach cheeks, a girl with a beautiful face, a beautiful embryo, if this is put in the future generations, it must be at least a school flower-like character, and nodded hurriedly. "It's just that the young master said that about me...... Everyone else said I was too thin......" The joy on Xiaoyan's face flashed, and he said. It turns out that this is the case, the aesthetics of the people in the Tang Dynasty are still quite different from the present, the Tang Dynasty is fat for beauty, like Xiaoyan, a small willow waist, a delicate and small woman may really be unwelcome, especially in the rural family, the ass is good to give birth to, such a concept is afraid that it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Thinking about those women and girls who are clamoring to lose weight every day after a thousand years, I can't help but feel a little embarrassed, if I travel to the Tang Dynasty, these people can be regarded as blessed. In fact, in the rich and noble family, the Qianqian lady is still very popular, because the farmer has a lot of work, and the Tang Dynasty is open, there are more opportunities for women to show their heads. ridiculed like this, and also shortened the distance between the two, Xiaoyan also continued, "This time the family actually came here, because the debt collection is tight, so there is no way, come here to borrow money, ......" said that he hesitated a little later. It stands to reason that the children sold themselves into slavery and got rid of the relationship with the family, and this matter of borrowing money can only rely on love, Xiaoyan probably knows the situation outside, and his family seems to be a little dead-faced, if the Wei family is a rich family, it is okay to say, now in this situation, the Wei family is unable to make ends meet, how can they still borrow money. However, in the end, it is my biological parents, and I always have some worries in my heart, and I am uncomfortable when my family is forced to pay debts like this.

Yi Bo heard her concerns, thinking that he was a child of an official eunuch, and he still had a little money, so he asked instead: "You go and find it, how much pocket money do I have...... Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment, and said, "The young master has always been generous, and this, I'm afraid the rest of the money is a little less...... The family's business went bankrupt this time, and even the only restaurant was mortgaged, and the money owed should be a lot, the young master was worried about Xiaoyan, and Xiaoyan was grateful, but these things still don't bother the young master...... "Use money generously, naturally it is a euphemism, I usually seem to be used to squandering and wasting, I am afraid that there is no money left, Yi Bo is a little embarrassed: "Then, there should still be some spare money on my mother's side......"

Xiaoyan said: "The young master is sick this time, he spent a lot of money, although Xiaoyan doesn't know the specifics, but occasionally listens to the sigh of the housewife, and seems to have borrowed a lot of money from the outside for this...... "It seems that his family is really an embroidered pillow, the appearance is bright and good-looking, in fact, there is really a feeling of poverty, but his father is still the kind of literati who is noble, busy painting and writing poems, this elegance is elegance, but if this continues, the family is obviously going to drink the northwest wind." I don't know if it's lucky or unfortunate to have such a connotative father. Wang Fu's housekeeper is estimated to be very difficult.

I didn't expect that I finally crossed into a child of an official eunuch, but I had no money, which is really a bit ridiculous, I still want to show my ambitions in this upcoming troubled world, but if you don't have money, everything is in vain, just take it right now, I can't do anything if I want to get a little gunpowder. Since he has more than a thousand years of advanced knowledge, there is no need to complain anymore, but now he does not have that productivity, and he is not an all-round scientific and technological talent, it is simply wishful thinking to engage in the industrial revolution or something, and now it is enough to make some money by himself.

Hearing Xiaoyan say the word restaurant, Yi Bo had an idea, thought of a way, and asked: "Xiaoyan, if I can help your family pay off some debts, can the restaurant borrow it......" Xiaoyan hurriedly said: "Young master, where did you get the money, I heard the family say that the restaurant has long been unable to make ends meet, and it has to lose a lot of money every year, and it has long wanted to sell it, but the buyer has also seen the situation of this restaurant, and the price is very low, so it has been delayed until now, and the mortgage of this restaurant is not worth a lot of money......" In that case, why did you want to run this restaurant in the first place......" Yi Bo asked.

"It's also my father's desire for profit, thinking of making a fortune, will sell all the fields, come to this Chang'an City to open a restaurant, now it's good, the fields are gone, a lot of debts, and the two brothers are guilty, no land to plant, can only go to do some small work for other people's families, so far I haven't married a wife...... "Ancient people attached great importance to the field, Shinong industry and commerce, although the merchants were also rich, but the rulers of the Chinese dynasties emphasized agriculture and suppressed the policy of business, which greatly inhibited the development of commerce, and also made the status of businessmen low, Xiaoyan's father, It is normal to abandon agriculture and start business without understanding.

"Xiaoyan, the hundred-year-old ginseng from last time is still there......" Yi Bo asked suddenly. Because of the master's mother's advice, this ginseng is too precious to be used yet...... Does the young master want to use it now?" Xiao Yan wondered. "Well, yes...... If it's rare, it should be worth a little money, so take it to the pharmacy and ......" Yi Bo nodded. Xiao Yan naturally thought that the young master was a ginseng in order to repay the debts for his family, and he felt in his heart, and he still said stubbornly: "The matter of the maid, the young master doesn't have to bother, this ginseng is for the young master to make up for his body, how can he be used for money......

"I, this is to give up a small amount of money to make a lot of money, now I am poor, I don't even have a little start-up capital, I can only do this, the young master's body is not so expensive, and when I make money at that time, it doesn't matter if we eat that ginseng as a meal......" Yi Bo explained with a smile.

"But, but ......" "There's nothing to do, don't you even listen to the young master's words...... It's okay, do you want to rebel?" Yi Bo said pretending to be serious.
