Chapter 91: Iron Striking (1)
Mu Sing did lose, and he made a bet with the shopkeeper Chen that at least a hundred Sogdian gold coins would be needed for the strict old shopkeeper of the Huang family to open his process and let the onlookers watch. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Shopkeeper Chen, who had lived in Qingxiang City for a long time, thought that eighty gold coins would be enough to complete such a transaction.
Mu Xin didn't believe it and told Shopkeeper Chen that he would pay a hundred gold coins to buy such an opportunity, and if Shopkeeper Chen got such an opportunity at the cost of less than a hundred gold coins, then the extra gold coins belonged to Shopkeeper Chen, and if a hundred gold coins did not achieve the effect, Shopkeeper Chen would be responsible for the rest.
So, in the teahouse, the shopkeeper Chen and the rest of the merchants tacitly prepared to get a little cheap with this Persian called Harash, and happily reached a consensus.
"I heard that there is a kind of pepper hemp paper in Shu, which is made of spice bark after being hammered and soaked, which can not only prevent insects from eating rats, and it will be immortal for thousands of years, and the best thing is that it has the effect of refreshing and refreshing the mind.
I don't know if the shopkeeper has ever seen it? β
Mu Xin's upright face and gentle aura quickly calmed down the Huang shopkeeper, who was a little angry after understanding the reason.
"There is nothing unusual about that kind of paper, the process is the same, but the raw materials are different, and the paper made of spice bark itself is expensive, and can only be used as paper for document title deeds, and the sales volume is not large, so there is no need to produce it with great fanfare."
"Hehe, this is really a wonderful idea, the Great Song Dynasty is prosperous, completely beyond my expectations, the old man always thinks that he is familiar with the scriptures, and he can be famous in Hami if he knows some current affairs, and now it seems that he needs to experience a little more to become it."
For the humble yellow shopkeeper shown by Mu Xin along the way, he was very useful, and he received seventy different gold coins for nothing today, and he was in a very good mood.
I just took this Persian to see a circle of production processes, a whole sixteen processes, and a variety of auxiliary materials were added in the middle, what can this Persian see? Could he have known that the secret ingredient he had bought from the camp was to add lime to the pulp?
After walking out of the Tianshan Mountain, Mu Xin bowed deeply to the shopkeeper Huang and said: "In the next day, I actually want to know what secret recipe Hengchangtai bought from Hami Jiangzuoying, but I found nothing, which is disappointing. β
The shopkeeper laughed and said: "I already know what your idea is, Hami will be a camp with unpredictable abilities, and people who don't understand this can't figure it out even if they live in the workshop."
It's just that today I have accepted seventy gold coins from Mr. in vain, which is inevitably a little disrespectful. β
Amid the laughter of the shopkeeper and the men, Musin hid his face and left......
In the evening, Musin had already sorted out a set of practical paper-making processes, which not only included the structure of the workshop, the structure of the utensils, but also the process requirements for adding lime to bleach the paper and clarify the pulp.
The shopkeeper Huang has a very small heart, and he deliberately put away the lime when he took him to visit the workshop, but Mu Xin's hand stirred in the pulp, and then licked his fingers when the shopkeeper Huang was not paying attention, how could he not know that there was lime in the water?
You must know that he didn't taste the taste of lime when he analyzed other people's pulp in the Great Song Dynasty.
After recording the paper-making process, Musin breathed a long sigh of relief, sorted out the thick stack of papers from under the table, and flipped through them one by one.
There is the process of making the waterwheel, there is the process of making the water mill, there is the construction of the horse-drawn hoe, there is the bellows of the wheat hulling, there is the method of cooking food, there is the method of using charcoal, and the process of bleaching paper with lime water obtained today, which gives Musin a very pleasant satisfaction.
If you build a high-rise building, you can secretly obtain the use of Hami jacks and pulley sets, as well as a whole set of high-rise building technology.
Mu Xin felt that he had not come to Hami in vain, and the soldiers who died in the battle under Loulan City could be regarded as a well-deserved death.
Musin carefully locked the papers into a small oak box, lit an incense burner, and sat in silence for a while, letting his mind escape from his scholarly state.
When he opened his eyes again, the indifferent Musin was gone, and the gloomy, cunning, and vicious Musin reappeared in the room.
The identity change was so fast that even Adacy, who had just entered the door, felt an inexplicable coldness.
"Tomorrow, Tie Xinyuan will take the high-ranking officials of the Hami Kingdom out of the city to choose a cemetery outside the city for the Hami soldiers who have died in battle one after another.
His retinue must have been many, but your servant thinks that such an opportunity must be taken advantage of.
After all, there aren't many opportunities for Tie Xinyuan to take the initiative to leave the wolf's den. β
Mu Xin withdrew his gaze from the map of Qingxiang City, looked at Adasi indifferently, and said, "It's too hasty, it's unlikely to succeed." β
Adasi nodded and said, "That's true, we've only been preparing for two days, and the time is really tight, but we must seize such an opportunity no matter what."
Your servant thinks it would be good to send only one cloud of the Lord's men to the test. If there is something to be done, we will put pressure on it, and if we can't do it, we will continue to forbear, sacrifice that group of people, so as to paralyze the Iron Heart Source and create a new environment for us to raid the Iron Heart Source later. β
Musin glanced at Adasi and said, "You don't trust a cloud? β
Adasi bowed his head and said, "I don't trust anyone except the gods and you. β
"So you're going to use this rough opportunity to test Tie Xinyuan's reaction, and also test whether a cloud is loyal?"
Adacy shut up.
Mu Xin sighed, stretched out his hand and stroked the top of Adasi's head and smiled, "Are you very desperate? β
Adasi said with a little choked up: "There are tall buildings in this city every day, countless caravans enter every day, countless new goods appear every day, and almost every day foreign envoys enter Qingxiang City to swear allegiance to ......."
"Every day the sun is new, it sets in the evening and continues to rise the next day.
My children, every spring there will be new grasses that will grow, and in the winter, these new grasses will gradually wither and continue to germinate the following year.
As I told you, Tie Xinyuan is a very deceitful man, and his wisdom, though high, is not yet high enough for us to reach.
He borrowed the mature officials of the Song State to govern the wilderness, and the people in the wilderness have not yet developed their wisdom, no matter how he governs, there will always be miracles in a short period of time. This is not surprising at all.
He opened up a peaceful place in the Western Regions, and the merchants would naturally come, and he received a large number of Song and Han people, who were the best producers in the world, so there was naturally no shortage of his goods.
The country of Hami is on the rise, and at this time, even a stone will take off with the rising momentum.
This is not surprising, Tie Xinyuan wants to create a great empire, and he still has a long way to go.
When the Prophet Muhammad was eating, there were people who became his servants wherever his voice went, and in just one year, there were reciters everywhere in the Tigris and Euphrates.
Small trees grow fast, but those towering trees dig their roots deep into the dirt.
When the roots of the small tree are not enough to support the tall canopy, this illusion of prosperity will cease, and some small contradictions that were previously inconspicuous will erupt, turning from sparks to fires.
Hami is not monolithic! β
Adassi looked at Musin in amazement, he did not understand where the Elder's faith came from, and not long ago, the Elder had sadly asked everyone to be ready to sacrifice.
"When we look at the elephant from a distance, we think it's a powerful creature, with long fangs, huge ears, a python-like flexible nose, and a huge body.
When we walk into the elephant with trepidation, we will find that its tusks are used to knock down tree trunks, its big ears are used to repel mosquitoes, and its long trunk is used to roll grass and wood, and then you will be surprised to find that it actually eats grass and does not eat meat...... How much of a threat does such a creature pose to you?
Tie Xinyuan is one such elephant! β
Adasi said helplessly: "Your majesty cannot be desecrated, and I hereby order that tomorrow's assassination be cancelled." β
Mu Sin laughed again: "Tomorrow's assassination continues, but not at the cost of casualty of our manpower. β
Adasi frowned, "This can't be...... My Elders. β
"It's very likely, just outside Qingxiang City, there are countless wandering mercenaries, and they have no food and clothing......
Adasi exclaimed, "They are just a school of miscellaneous fish, a group of miscellaneous fish that even the Hami people look down on. β
Mu Xin smiled: "I didn't expect these miscellaneous fish in your mouth to kill Tie Xinyuan, I just told you that this is a group of desperate people."
The water in this pool of Hami is so clear that we have almost nothing to hide, and we must make the water turbid, only when the water is turbid, we have a suitable opportunity to succeed in one blow.
Also, leave this to a cloud, you have to hide and cut off from a cloud in a new place. β
Puzzled, Adasi left the small courtyard to carry out Musin's plan, and he still did not understand why the elder was startling the snake.
After Adasi left, the small courtyard returned to peace, and Musin lowered his head and continued to look at the map.
He marked several black dots on the map, each of which looked like a blind spot guarded by the Qingxiang City army.
He didn't think Tie Xinyuan would be so careless, and he didn't believe it at all.
These blind spots seem to be as conspicuous as a person wearing the most ornate robe, but there are squeezed stains on his face.
After thinking about it for a long time, Mu Xin smiled bitterly and tapped the black dot and said, "My students, it's really too difficult for you to fight against these stupid people in the Western Regions, don't they even have the ability to see through a slightly more hidden trap?" β
