Strangle chicken feathers around the wind plate of the bellows, this is not Fan Li's invention. When he was a child, he saw his grandmother pull open the roof of the bellows in the countryside, and saw chicken feathers around the bellows. At this time, Gongsun Zhi was anxious about this matter, and said casually: "It's good to use chicken feathers." ”

Unexpectedly, this reminder shocked Gongsun Zhi, his eyes lit up, and he shouted: "That's right, why didn't I remember it, I didn't remember to use chicken feathers after tossing about this for a year." Okay, good! It's nice to use chicken feathers to ensure that there is no air leakage, and it is also particularly durable! ”

He muttered excitedly, and suddenly looked at Fan Li and said, "Who are you?" I want to worship you as a teacher! "As he spoke, he knelt down.

Fan Li panicked, and hurriedly grabbed Gongsun Zhi: "Mr. Gongsun, no!" ”

Zimei covered her mouth on the side and chuckled "eat".

Gongsun Zhi looked at Fan Li with a look of admiration: "Tell me, how did you come up with chicken feathers?" It's a great idea. ”

Fan Li said: "I thought of it suddenly. It's not as mysterious as you say. ”

Fan Li sighed in his heart, some inconspicuous small technologies in later generations, the original inventors didn't know how much effort it took to rack their brains.

It's great to think about blowing air in a furnace to add oxygen to the fire, which can raise the temperature of the furnace, and then it is even more remarkable to think about inventing a tool for blowing wind.

"You're so good-looking, like a good woman!" Gongsun Zhi looked at Fan Li, then turned his face and asked Wu Ban: "Senior brother, who is this master you brought?" ”

Wu Ban said: "Senior brother, you only care about tinkering with that thing, and you don't care if the guests come, so you will think of asking." ”

Gongsun Zhi patted his head: "Hey, I let the bellows toss, I'm sorry, Gongsun Zhi was rude and apologized to the master." ”

Wu Ban said: "Senior brother, don't scream at the master, do you know who he is?" He is the general of the Yue Kingdom, Lord Fan Lifan! ”

"Fan Li?" Gongsun Zhi glanced at Fan Li vigilantly, and his face turned cold: "Why did you get here?" ”

Fan Li bowed: "Listen to my eldest brother Wu Ban said, Mr. Gongsun is the first craftsman in the world, Fan Li admires him tightly, so he made a special trip to visit you." ”

"Visit? What do I have to visit? Gongsun Zhi said coldly: "I'm busy." As he spoke, he was about to bow his head and go to the bellows, when he suddenly looked up again and said, "You can do this too?" ”

Fan Li said with a smile: "It's not very clear, but I also know a little, such as smearing some oil on this lever, which saves effort when pulling it up, and is not easy to wear." ”

Gongsun Zhi's eyes lit up again: "Yes, what a good idea, I said brother, don't you just do any bullshit general, okay with me to do technology?" ”

Zimei saw that Gongsun Zhi's IQ was so high that he was as simple as a child, and she felt very funny, so she couldn't help but turn her face and snicker.

Wu Ban said, "Senior brother, what are you talking nonsense? Why don't you ask Master Fan what you're looking for? ”

Gongsun Zhi said: "You came up with two ideas for me, both of which are good ideas. I truly admire you. Well, what are you looking for me for? ”

Fan Li smiled and said, "If I give you another idea, would you like to talk to me?" ”

Gongsun Zhi was happy and said, "If you give me another idea, I will definitely talk to you about it." ”

Fan Li said: "Okay, I'll give you another idea." Your bellows are too small to cook on fire. To make iron, you have to make a big bellows. You add a horizontal handle to the handle at the back, which can be pulled by two people or four people. That kind of wind can blow a brick away. ”

Gongsun Zhi said: "That's right, only this kind of wind power can raise the heat and train the best steel." I'll start doing it now. ”

Wu Ban said, "Senior brother, what about talking to Master Fan?" ”

Gongsun Zhi smiled embarrassedly: "I forgot about this." All right. Let's talk. ”

Fan Li said: "How are you chatting in this place?" There wasn't even a place to sit. ”

Gongsun Zhi said embarrassedly: "This is my kennel, but I have nowhere else." ”

Fan Li said: "Let's find another place, eat something, drink something, and talk slowly, okay?" ”

Gongsun Zhi said: "In this kind of place, there is no restaurant, even if there is, I don't have the money to invite you to dinner." ”

Fan Li pointed at Zimei and said, "My brother has opened a small restaurant nearby, let's go sit together, okay?" ”

Gongsun Zhi said: "Open a restaurant here? It's all poor here. Can there be a business? ”

Wu Ban said: "No matter, let's go." ”

Gongsun Zhi reluctantly glanced at his bellows and said, "Okay, let's go." ”

When I went out, I saw that there were several rooms on the hillside behind, and there was a wine flag at the door, fluttering in the wind. Gongsun Zhi said: "There is really a small restaurant here, why don't I know at all?" ”

Wu Ban said: "You are busy tinkering with the bellows all day long, how do you know this?" ”

Gongsun Zhi said: "That's what I said. ”

When I entered the small restaurant, there were no other guests inside, but there was a hot meal on the table.

Zimei said: "I know everyone is coming, and I have been ready for a long time." Mr. Gongsun, Brother Wu Ban, please take a seat. ”

Wu Ban also muttered, there was nothing on this hillside just now, why did a restaurant suddenly pop up? Along the way, there are so many wonders.

Everyone is seated. Zimei poured a bowl of wine for everyone, and Fan Li said: "Mr. Gongsun, big brother, come, do it!" ”

Gongsun Zhi picked up the bowl and dried it up, picked up the chopsticks, and began to gobble it up, just like the wind and clouds.

Fan Li smiled, Wu Ban couldn't stand it anymore: "I said senior brother, you eat like this!" How long has it been since you eaten? ”

Gongsun Zhi swallowed and said, "I forgot, maybe three days, maybe two days." ”

After a while, Gongsun Zhi put down his chopsticks: "I'm full, let's say first, I don't have money to pay the bill." ”

In a few days, everyone has eaten well. Fan Li said: "Mr. Gongsun, I want to ask, why don't you eat for two or three days?" ”

Gongsun Zhi said: "I have a bad brain, I can't remember the meal, I go late, the meal is gone, so I have to endure it." ”

"Is this often the case?"

"It often does."

Fan Li said: "You are engaged in technology like this, does anyone support you?" ”

Gongsun Zhi looked at Fan Li: "What do you mean?" ”

Fan Li explained: "I mean those who are officials, soldiers, and those who care about you, does he support you?" ”

Gongsun Zhi looked at Fan Li, not knowing why he asked such a childish question: "Are you pretending not to understand?" In this world, those who do crafts are all submersibles, and if they don't beat me or scold me, I will kowtow to them. Also supported! ”

Fan Li sighed: "Mr. Gongsun, isn't your wife around?" ”

Gongsun Zhi said: "What lady, I'm single!" ”

Fan Li said: "Why don't you find one?" ”

Gongsun Zhi suddenly became angry, stood up, and said loudly, "You just talk to me about this?" Look at me like this, it's not as good as Hanako, who follows me? How do I feed my family? ”

Fan Li stood up and bowed: "I'm sorry, Mr. Gongsun." I mean, do you want to change your life like this? ””

Gongsun Zhi also clenched his fists and said, "Change? How to change? ”

Fan Li said: "First, no one discriminates against you anymore, everyone around you respects you, and you are no longer subject to any interference in technology." Second, have a woman who serves you, cooks for you, and does your laundry for you so that you don't have any worries. Do you want to live like this? ”

Gongsun Zhi said: "Lord Fan, although my Gongsun Zhi is an inferior person, he is not a fool, please don't tease me, okay?" ”

Fan Li said: "I just want to know, do you want the kind of life I said?" ”

Gongsun Zhi said: "I said I wanted it, can I get it?" ”

Fan Li said: "You just need to say: think, you can get this kind of life immediately." ”

Gongsun Zhi looked at Fan Li with a puzzled face, this is something that is hard to believe.

Fan Li said sincerely: "Mr. Gongsun, please answer me. ”

Gongsun Zhi said loudly: "I'm not a fool, why don't I want to?" Think! ”

Fan Li smiled and clenched his fists with both hands: "Congratulations, Mr. Gongsun, in three days, you will be able to live that kind of life." ”

Note: In fact, bellows were not invented until the Song Dynasty.
