Lao Yuan's words made the merchants and ministers below all moved, not to mention far away, most of the buildings in the Tianwen Academy are made of cement, although they look strange, but they are definitely not doubtful.

After all, it's a seven-story building!

The eldest grandson Wuji said leisurely: "Lao Yuan, this cement is a very important thing, the old man thinks, you still have a good shot among our courtiers, these businessmen are not profitable, once ......... Right! ”

The eldest grandson Wuji's words were not all, but everyone understood what he meant, it was nothing more than that he was afraid that the businessman would spread the cement and even the formula.

Hao Wencai's position is good, just behind the eldest grandson Wuji, other businessmen are shocked by the identity of the eldest grandson Wuji Guogong and dare not speak, only he opened his mouth: "Zhao Guogong, this is not what he said, although we are shameful businessmen, but we are also the people of the Tang Dynasty, it is impossible to do anything against our will!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji turned his head and looked displeased: "Who are you, you dare to answer the old man's words?" ”

Hao Wencai stood up and arched his hand to the eldest grandson Wuji: "Below is Taiyuan businessman Hao Wencai, the word Wuxun, of course, I am first of all a Tang Dynasty!" Since they are both from the Tang Dynasty, why can't Zhao Guogong's words be accepted? ”

"Interesting~"

Leng Feng and Li Shimin in the private room couldn't help but straighten up and look at this Hao Wencai, this businessman had a little ink in his stomach, and he had a kind of arrogance and eloquence like Lin Xiangru.

He did not use the identity of a businessman, but used the identity of a "Tang Dynastyman" to talk to the eldest grandson Wuji, in this way, even if it was Li Shimin who was talking to him, he must be taken seriously.

Sure enough, the eldest grandson Wuji stood up, stood opposite Hao Wencai, and said seriously: "Hao Wencai, you should know that this cement is a thing of the same level as armaments, and it is not something that outsiders can touch, why do you want to bid?" ”

Hao Wencai said seriously: "Because of convenience, Zhao Guogong doesn't know that there are not only coal mines in the next house, but also white stone mines, in the past, some people like to use white stones to build walls, but now white stone can make cement, what is lacking is just a formula!" ”

This reason is very good, the raw materials needed for the kiln are nothing more than coal and white stone, and everyone has it, which is more convenient than anyone else.

The eldest grandson Wuji was also stunned, so to speak, it's really better to share this recipe with him!

Hao Wencai is not stupid, he looked at Lao Yuan and said: "Yuan shopkeeper, since you didn't mention the auction reserve price of this auction item, it is to take a cut, my Hao Wencai is not very demanding, as long as seventy percent, the world will take three percent for nothing, how about it?" ”

Hao Wencai produces coal and white stone by himself, and labors at his own expense, but he only needs seventy percent, which is already a considerable degree of concession, and other people may not dare to cut such a big knife by themselves!

The merchants were silent, they didn't have a coal mine, Baishi Mine, even if they spent a lot of money to get this recipe, it was useless.

Lao Yuan saw that there was no competition, so he smiled and said: "Qisan's words, it is really our world downstairs to make a lot of money, but such a profit will provoke the anger of the heavens, so the world only needs two parts, and the other part is handed over to the imperial court, what is the intention of the shopkeeper Hao?" ”

Hao Wencai didn't agree, but Fang Xuanling spoke: "Hao Wencai, you have thought about it, you can take over this business, but just now Zhao Guogong also said the stakes, so the court must send someone to intervene in it, can you think about it?" ”

Hao Wencai said indifferently: "It's nothing more than supervision, since you dare to take it, you are naturally not afraid of the imperial court sending people to watch." ”

"That's great!" The old house turned around and said no more.

Lao Yuan saw that no one was talking anymore, and he didn't even say "the first time" or anything, and directly smashed a hammer on the small wooden board: "Deal!" Shopkeeper Hao, please stay for a while, Lao Yuan will discuss the recipe with you. ”

Hao Wencai nodded, and sat down after bowing his hand to the eldest grandson Wuji.

The atmosphere brought by the second auction item was still not very hot, but when the third auction item was put on the auction table, the generals in the front row couldn't wait to stand up.

The reason is that this third lot is a sword!

A sword is not quite right, a magical sword to be exact!

Lao Yuan opened the long wooden box and took out a sword from it, the whole sword was extremely light and thin, there was no scabbard outside, just a layer of cowhide, Lao Yuan grabbed the hilt of the sword with one hand, and dragged the middle of the sword body with the other, and the tip of the sword was softly hanging low and touched the auction table.

It's a soft sword!

All the generals usually use hard horizontal swords, and the soft sword is just a thing, when have you seen such a strange blade with your own eyes!

So, Li Jing was the first to rush to the auction table to take a closer look at this weapon, and several generals followed, all looking at the soft sword in Lao Yuan's hand with eager eyes.

Lao Yuan smiled: "Everyone, this is a weapon inadvertently created by a blacksmith in the old general's prison, the sword body is as soft as a snake, but it is no less hard than a horizontal knife. My master said that this weapon is best used as a belt tied around the waist, and in case of an attack, hehe, it can be used immediately! The reserve price is 500 yuan! ”

After speaking, Lao Yuan handed it to Li Jing, who was the closest, and Li Jing didn't dare to pull it out when he held it in his hand, but just held it and tried it.

"This thing is good, I remember that there is such a poem in Liu Kun's "Regift of Lu Zhan's Poems" in the Jin Dynasty: 'What does it mean to refine steel and turn into finger wrapping soft', there was chaos in the Northern and Southern Periods, and the refining method of this soft sword was lost, I also want a self-defense, do you still have it?"

Li Shimin is very interested in this soft sword that can be used as a belt!

Leng Feng said helplessly: "No, just this one." ”

In other words, Tie Sheng did experiment with what different metals would look like according to what he said, and the research reached the rise, that is, it was to ask for silver and gold, and Leng Feng satisfied him, although he had never heard of any silver alloy and gold alloy, but maybe there really was!

A few days ago, this guy accidentally came up with this alloy, and happily planned to create such a sword, and after he finished building it without sleep, he fucking forgot what he mixed into it, damn it!

Li Shimin rubbed his fingers, looked at the generals outside, and was about to ask Long Ying to go out and intercept it, but Leng Feng spoke: "What do you want that thing for, you have a pistol, a pistol is not better than a soft sword?" ”

"Forehead ........." Li Shimin was stunned, it is true, the soft sword is a little fun, how can there be a pistol that is easy to use.

"A thousand kans!" Li Jing thought for a while and then quoted the price.

1,000 yuan, but a huge amount of money, if it weren't for the fact that he didn't come back from the expedition for a long time, it would not have been possible to pay this price.

Li Xiaogong smiled slightly: "One thousand and one hundred times!" ”
