Section 600 The beach, the sea, and the river
Zou Yan is not a war maniac, to be precise, Zou Yan is an astronomical scholar, agriculture is his deputy, he is famous in the theory of yin and yang, relying on agricultural technology to become an official.
The pure doctrine of yin and yang was not enough to make him a high-ranking official.
Zou Yan's favorite thing to do is to look at the stars.
is such a person, he actually put pen to paper and asked for the approval of the Great Qin Court.
Extinguish!
Of course, this document was sent to Xianyang, and it is estimated that it will be half a year later.
For now, let's cut it first.
What about Bai Hui.
Wearing a pair of large linen beach pants and a light linen waistcoat, he sat on a beach chair made of rattan and hemp rope, basking in the sun.
Ten steps away from Baihui, there is a sandy beach and sea water.
Bai Hui had a coconut in his hand, and a bamboo pipe was stuck in it.
Win ginger to.
As a soldier, Ying Jiang is also accustomed to seeing those shirtless soldiers in the barracks, not to mention that there is no defense of men and women who are almost perverted in this era.
Ying Jiang put a coconut on the small table next to Bai Hui's beach chair: "Dahejun, we found that this kind of shaking with the sound of water is sweeter than the one without the sound of water." Those with the sound of water should be ripe and empty. The silence is not good enough. ”
"Is there any boiling oil?"
Ying Jiang replied: "I am trying, according to Dahejun's instructions, it may take some time to get the best oil that is as clear as water and as cold as milk in the extreme, which is quite difficult." What's more, all the utensils here need to be remade, but fortunately, a small coal mine was found, and there should be iron ore in the mountain. ”
Bai Hui nodded and didn't speak.
He doesn't need to be busy, as long as people are here.
Ying Jiang said again: "Dahe-kun, do you believe that the wood will sink in the water? ”
"What?"
Bai Hui's body jumped up as soon as he flicked: "What color, black, purple, red, or yellow, or some other color tree." Whether there is a fragrance, whether the core material and the leather material are two-colored, and how thick the length is. ”
Bai Hui's reaction surprised Ying Jiang at all, and there seemed to be nothing Bai Hui didn't know.
Ying Jiang replied calmly: "Purple! ”
"Is there an incision, is there a hollow?"
"Nope!"
"How thick?"
"It's very thin, less than a foot."
Hahaha, Bai Hui laughed: "It's very thick, this kind of tree grows every five years, and it takes eight hundred years to become mature." Quick, take me to see it. Tell them not to waste a single branch on me. ”
"No!"
"Pass my order, no one should cut down red sandalwood privately, this is ....... Heaven-sent wood. Bai Hui originally wanted to say that it was exclusively for the royal family, but after thinking about it again, it was difficult to explain it.
Soon, Bai Hui saw this red sandalwood.
Speaking of which, this is not really a top-notch red sandalwood, but for those who see this wood for the first time, it is already a very rare wood.
A spice master stepped forward: "Dahejun, this wood core material has a peculiar fragrance, and it seems to have the effect of calming the mind." ”
"Sandalwood rosewood. No, it's not. I haven't seen it, but it's not the ultimate one, but it's a treasure. Keep it on file and record it. ”
After saying that, Bai Hui turned around and left.
Ying Jiang was about to be in charge of handling the storage of this kind of treasure-grade wood, so he stopped after walking a few steps, and walked to Bai Hui's side: "Dahejun, there will be a doubt at the end, I don't know if I can ask it?" ”
"Ask, if there is anything not to ask, just ask."
Ying Jiang asked, "Dahe-kun was very happy and excited when he first heard about this wood. After seeing it, why did you react like indifference? ”
"Because I've never seen it before, I thought about it when I saw it. It took 800 years for this wood to become a material, and it takes more than 1,000 years of wood to be useful. But life in the world is not to say that it is a thousand years, but there are several in a hundred years. ”
Listening to Bai Hui's words, Ying Jiang nodded silently: "What Dahejun said is very true, Ying Jiang is going to go to the court." This wood is a sacred tree, and it is not allowed to be cut down without sacrifices, and it is a felony to cut down and buy and sell. ”
Bai Hui didn't answer, just nodded silently.
Just as Bai Hui was about to leave again, Ying Jiang asked again: "Dahejun thinks that the last general's book is not good. ”
"It's not bad, it's just that even if your book is recognized and executed by the court, after hundreds of years, people's desires are unlimited, and this kind of wood will eventually become extinct in the world. If you want to blame it, it's too good. It's useless to say this, but you have to be careful, this is a vicious place. ”
Ying Jiang gave a Great Qin military salute: "The last general understands, and the last general will arrange the guards." And the scope of the order should not be too deep into this place. ”
"Yes."
Bai Hui went back to the beach and sat on his beach chair, squinting at the sea in the distance.
There is no winter, just hot and hotter, heavy rain and heavy rain at any given time.
In the camp, the craftsmen of Great Qin exerted their superb wisdom, and the word specific gravity was definitely not found in this era.
But the craftsmen who are working have their own unique methods.
The craftsmen cut a piece of wood, measuring one foot long, five inches wide, and three inches thick, and then nailed it around it, and made a ring with silk and hemp rope around it, under which a block of lead was hung.
The weight is exactly 100 standard lead blocks and the same volume of water as the wood.
Next, the lead block is placed on the water surface, and the more lead blocks need to be hoisted, the worse the wood.
On the contrary, rabbit urine bubbles are hung on the ring, and the more you hang, the more difficult it is to float, which is defined as high-quality wood.
As for the rest of the indicators, except for the fragrance, the rest are left alone for the time being.
For now, instead of starting to cut down, it is better to make an atlas of the unique trees here, and determine the level of wood first.
The construction of the wharf has begun, and only timber that can float on the surface of the water is allowed to build the wharf, but anything heavier than the water must not be cut down casually.
The craftsmen had heard that the purple tree took 800 years to reach maturity.
According to folklore, such trees are not ordinary trees, and this kind of wood will definitely not float on the water, so without winning Jiang's orders, the craftsmen have been deliberately bypassing these ancient sacred trees.
In the evening, Bai Hui returned to his temporary wooden house.
Wen Luo personally came to Bai Hui to bring dinner.
"Wen Luo, aren't you busy? Let the servants do these things. ”
Wen Luo put down the food: "It's nothing to do these little things for the Lord, and the people who are watching the Lord seem to be in a bad mood for the past two days, but there is something on the mind?" ”
Bai Hui didn't answer, and asked, "How are King Han and King Wei doing in the past two days?" ”
Wen Luo sat down: "There are many interesting things, if the Lord is interested in listening, the Door will tell the Lord about it?" ”
"Have you eaten, if not, eat together, and then you can tell me."
"The people have eaten, in fact, yesterday, the king of Han and the king of Wei fought, they did it themselves, and then the Han and Wei people watched. This is a good thing for me Daqin. In the hearts of the Han people and the Wei people, they have begun to respect our king. ”
"Talk, it sounds interesting."
