Chapter 42 Kengkeng County Cheng (II)

The things that Ye Xiaotian gave to He Feng were very ordinary, and they would be rusty steel knives when they were kitchen knives in the homes of ordinary people in later generations. In fact, it is not a steel knife, at best it is a large piece of iron with a better material.

It was Ye Xiaotian who was bored for a while when he was in the temple and couldn't hold back his scientific heart, and he got a lot of defective products after burning a lot of expensive coal and good mines in this era.

Originally, it was burned into three, and one was given to Peep Ji. After all, as a supplier of all raw materials, it is normal to take a handful back.

……

After He Feng left, Fang Yiai looked at Ye Xiaotian with a resentful look: "Such a good knife, why don't you give me one?" Are we still brothers? “

Listening to Fang Yiai's sour tone, Ye Xiaotian had goosebumps: "It's not a good thing." “

"Such a good steel, even His Majesty's most favored battle-hardened grandfathers may not have seen it, I want to take it out, how much more face!" Fang Yiai's tone was full of praise for the steel knife he had just seen.

Ye Xiaotian waved his hand indifferently: "Hey, what's the hurry, it won't be long before there will be one for sale in the Chang'an Street Market, and the material will definitely be better than my two." I'll buy you a few more! “

"Better?" Fang Yiai couldn't believe it: "How do you know that it will be sold in the future?" ”

"It's very simple, the smelting process let me sell it to the iron-striker, a full fifty times, the same as the one picked up for nothing!" Ye Xiaotian was very proud, after all, this incident made him feel the essence of knowledge is money for the first time.

"Do you have the craft? Still sold? Fang Yiai was suddenly not calm, and his tone was very anxious and surprised.

"Why, you want to buy it too?" Ye Xiaotian regretted it a little, after all, it was still more comfortable to leave the pit house, and the last time he was able to pit this set of yards from the house bereavement. Ye Xiaotian hurriedly added: "I also have a set of sugar making processes here that are more popular than steelmaking, if you are interested, I will sell it to you cheaply, not more, as long as you have not yet received the shares of the bookstore to exchange, is this price very kind?" ”

"I can't sell it! Brother, you're in trouble! Fang Yiai's head was a little cold sweat, and he looked at Ye Xiaotian like a madman.

Ye Xiaotian didn't understand: "Isn't it just a way to sell?" Could it be that the imperial court decreed that knowledge could not be sold? ”

"It's not a matter of selling or not selling, it's about selling something!" Fang Yiai's expression was very anxious.

Looking at Fang Yiai's uneasy attitude, Ye Xiaotian seemed to realize something.

Damn, what Fang Yiai said is right, it is not illegal to do business, but what you are selling is something that the National Academy of Sciences is committed to researching, it is your fault.

Although the Tang Dynasty was not as strict as the Qin Dynasty when it was about things like iron, it was still a relatively sensitive thing after all. The country is strong, so it gives a lot of authority to the people.

But after all, this permission also has a bottom line, and now Ye Xiaotian finds that he seems to have inadvertently done a VIP lifting ban, and when he chooses to die, he will be rewarded with a few more knives to make himself more like a VIP with dumpling filling.

As a person of the Tang Empire who is held in his hands as a fragrance and cares, he has good things that are enough to take the country to the next level, but he doesn't know how to return it and hand it over, but sells it instead?

After understanding, Ye Xiaotian said to Fang Yiai with a bitter face: "Brother, I have good news and bad news here. ”

"Bad!"

"I don't know where the guy who bought the stuff lives!"

"Okay?"

"She's obviously my Tang people, the kind of rich one! It's pretty good-looking, but it's a little bit of a temper, if it's a little better......"

The love of the house has begun.

……

Ye Xiaotian looked a little decadent and looked very relaxed, and lay down again to write poems and distant places.

Because suddenly, Ye Xiaotian thought of a very important link, and now the semi-finished products produced by that process seem to be about to be labeled as county officials.

A sheep is also led, and a flock of sheep is also driven, so he is simply charged with all the crimes. As for the girl named Li He who knew her true face...... Well, you have to wear a mask when you go out in the future.

Ye Xiaotian took out the hairpin from the girl's pit from his arms, handed it to Fang Yiai's eyes and said: "This is the thing of the person who buys the craft, you are well-informed, go and inquire, the family is iron-struck, and there should not be too many people who can bring this kind of hairpin in Chang'an City." ”

Fang Yiai took Ye Xiaotian's hairpin, which looked very luxurious, and thought thoughtfully: "Why do you seem to have seen ...... somewhere?"

……

The next day, in the Chang A County Yanai, early in the morning was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere.

Chang A County looked at the steel knife on the table in front of him that was bright enough to shake off the eight streets of the current craft, and his face was gloomy.

A handyman who was in charge of cleaning found this unclear thing in a very secret place in the county office, and felt the need to take it to ask the county magistrate, what is this thing? I want to get acquainted with the insight of a countryman for a long time.

As the county commander, Lord Lu felt that he needed to take on the great responsibility of educating the masses, so the moment he saw the steel knife, Lord Lu was gloomy.

After a long time, Lord Lu slapped the table, and said with a look that Lao Tzu couldn't control this matter: "I handed this thing over to the Ministry of Rites, and said that it was found from the house of Chang A County Cheng." Moreover, the official found that there was a lot of collusion between the county and the city fox society rats in the city, and they also reported it! ”

The people below immediately expressed their admiration, and the adults were wise. Too good at being an official.

Lord Lu behaved like this, but it was really not Fang Yiai who handed a note to the county government. Since ancient times, the relationship between the county commander and the county has been so in love and killing. Those who are in love can love each other, and people and ghosts must kill each other in different ways.

Lord Lu is a good official, he wants to serve the Tang Dynasty wholeheartedly, although he knew all kinds of evil deeds of D County Cheng before, but he has not caught enough handles, and today's opportunity is just right to poke the heart of Lord County, so at this moment he reported this matter 'as it is' without any investigation. Maybe in the eyes of Lord Lu, an official like the county who holds the imperial court but does not do personnel should be criticized and dealt with by the leaders, or maybe it is because the county has never shared the filial piety in the city with the adults?

It can be seen that a good official is not necessarily a good person.

At noon, the steel knife was handed to Li Shimin's desk with a book.

The content of the twist is very simple and rude: there are many bad deeds of fish and meat people in Chang A County, and now they are colluding with foreign countries and are planning to sell this steel knife craft with good materials to foreign countries. Fortunately, the Ministry of Rites found and stopped it in time......

If Ye Xiaotian was on the spot, he would definitely be surprised: Damn, the officialdom is too dark!

Li Shimin called a cronie beside him, and after a few words of explanation in a low voice, the cronie withdrew with a solemn face. Li Shimin picked up the steel knife in front of him with a smile on his face and tapped lightly......

In the afternoon, not long after the cronies returned to the palace, Li Shimin's criticism came out: Chang A County Cheng Duo has violated the law and has been exiled for 9,000 miles. Although he is guilty, it will not harm his family.

When the people below heard this, they shouted: Your Majesty is merciful!

And the county magistrate, who had never known his name, knew that when he left Chang'an City with shackles, he didn't know what was going on. But he didn't resist, after all, only he knew what he was doing.

……

When listening to Fang Yiai talking about the final ending of this play, Ye Xiaotian was very calm.

This is just a small episode.
