But seeing that on this day, the sky was just dawning, and Chen Maocai had already gotten up early, in order to figure out what Zhou Zeng was doing these days. But I never thought that he was earlier than him, and as soon as Chen Maocai came out of this door, he collided with this week.

As soon as Zhou Zeng saw that it was him, he was ready to take the road away. turned out to be stopped by Chen Maocai: "Stop, what are you doing kid, why can't you see you all this time?" ”

"You care about me, get out of the way, don't disturb me" Zhou Zeng looked anxious and returned strongly.

"Alas...... You stinky boy, don't you know the hearts of good people, do you care about your mistakes? Chen Maocai pointed at Zhou Zeng with a complaint.

"Don't worry about it, you'll know after a while, I still have urgent matters" This week, between Zeng's words, he pushed away Chen Maocai's impatient way away. provoked Chen Maocai to shake his head helplessly, and said to himself: "Alas, this kid really doesn't understand!" ”

If you want to figure out this, you have to start after they visited the artillery superintendent. Since that day of separation, Zhou Zeng has developed a strong interest in this black powder. He wondered why it would be so powerful when a few ordinary items were exchanged for one piece and crushed finely. So I want to get to the bottom of it!

So, after thinking about it, these days are very idle anyway, rather than being idle and having nothing to do, it is better to go to this artillery prison for a walk.

In the first few days, Li Jin saw this big man in his twenties, who came to the artillery prison every day, thinking that he was instructed by Wang Xuance. However, after some understanding, Zhou Zeng said his true thoughts: he wanted to learn the skills of making firecrackers and crushing black powder. In other words, it is to worship Li Ji as a teacher.

When he figured out his intentions, Li Yi immediately flatly refused. Although he only has a few encounters with Zhou Zeng, he can already see Zhou Zeng's arrogant character. The process of crushing black powder is very dangerous, and if you are not careful, it will explode; To do this industry, what is needed is a person who is bold and careful, cautious and refined, not a person like Zhou Zeng, who is rough and arrogant. Therefore, for the sake of his safety, despite his several requests, Li Jin never agreed.

But this week, when the second pole character came out, he was always so indomitable, and he had no intention of retreating. Every day, as soon as it dawned, he came to the door of the artillery supervisor and waited for Li Jin's arrival.

Li Zhen is also a loyal person, and he has always been careful, so he has never been moved by him. But as time went by, no matter how strong his heart was, he was also moved by the sincerity of this big man.

Therefore, on a rainy morning, seeing Zhou Zeng's early arrival, he immediately let him go to the main hall. He said earnestly: "It's not that I don't want to accept you to make black powder, but because of the situation, you must need careful people to do it." If you are not careful, there is the slightest deviation, causing an explosion is small, and losing your life is a big matter. Life in the world has its value and mission. It's about living with integrity and strength, not about making this fearless sacrifice, you know what I mean? ”

When Zhou Zeng figured out what Li Zhen meant, he hurriedly knelt down and said: "I understand what Mr. means, and I understand the danger of making black powder, it is precisely because I understand this danger and know this delicacy that I can cherish life more." Mr. Wanwang accepted me, and I will uphold Mr. Wanwang's teachings, work carefully, and ensure that there is no mistake. ”

What Li Jin never expected was that this usually arrogant person; At this time, he was able to say such a sincere truth. After he looked at it up and down again, he recalled this, what Zhou Zeng had done these days, and his tenacity; Indeed, he is like a person who is thick and thin. Therefore, after thinking about it carefully, he nodded and agreed to Zhou Zeng's request.

This week, when I heard that Li Zhen promised to accept him, he was immediately ecstatic. According to the due etiquette system, I performed the three kneeling and nine bowing bows!

And Li Jin also gave him a very delicately carved wooden firecracker as a token of gunpowder. I saw this delicate firecracker, about five inches high and two inches in circumference, carved from the finest hardwood. The outermost layer is densely engraved with a lot of small characters, and if you look closely, it turns out to be the method of making gunpowder.

After this token is opened, there are a lot of dense small characters inside, which introduces how to make firecrackers. When I opened it again, it was the innermost layer, and I saw that it was still densely engraved with a lot of small characters, and what was written was the method of making this "earth-shattering thunder".

When he received such a token, Zhou Zeng was overjoyed, so he bowed his head and bowed again.

Since then, I have often followed Li Jian this week to learn the production skills and production methods. Through follow-up observations, Li Zhen did find that he did not accept the wrong apprentice, because he found that he was indeed a bold and careful person.

It didn't take long for Zhou Zeng to not only master the pressing ratio of this gunpowder, but also to master the production skills of this firecracker. At the same time, what they didn't expect was that he developed different firecrackers according to the guidance of his master, so he won Li Jin's favor.

Then again, the reason why Zhou Zeng hurriedly took the road this time was that he suddenly remembered the improvement of this gunpowder, so he couldn't allow Chen Maocai to delay his time. That's why we have this scene.

I often hear the older generation of people say that with a skill in hand, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking; I also heard my parents often say that there are many skills and no pressure.

A few simple sayings describe the context of Chinese cultural inheritance. The master-apprentice relationship is always the most important relationship in the context of Chinese culture in addition to the relationship between parents and parents.

It is precisely because of this word of mouth, master-apprentice, and heart-to-eye transmission that China's advanced culture and advanced skills have endured for thousands of years. And this inheritance is adhering to the grace of parents, selfless righteousness, and moral ruler, and travels freely in the land of China!

When Wang Xuance and Chen Maocai figured out that Li Jin's acceptance of Zhou Zeng's apprenticeship was more than two months later. On this day, when Zhou Zeng returned to their mansion with a black guy, the two of them understood the purpose of going out early and returning late every day for the past few months......

Because a lot of time has passed, Chen Maocai has long forgotten what this thing is, so he asked in surprise: "What is this?" ”

However, this Wang Xuance, because he had seen this thing many times, replied casually: "Isn't this the earth-shaking thunder?" Lee's stuff."

"That's right, big brother is right, this thing is called Earthquake Thunder, I just improved it." Zhou Zeng immediately said to them domineeringly.

Looking at the two of them, they were deeply surprised, and they smiled happily this week. Not only did he not sell more guanzi, but he told them all about this paragraph, leaving early and returning late, and apprenticeship with Li Jin.

When he heard that Li Zhen accepted Zhou Zeng as an apprentice, Wang Xuance couldn't help but feel relieved for Zhou Zeng's good fortune. And Chen Maocai was also deeply moved by Zhou Zeng's sincerity......

So the two of them cast admiring glances at him......

To do anything, you should have a perseverance, just like Zhou Zeng. As long as you want to do it, you will stick to it, and only in this way can you get any help from Master and others...... The road will be smoother......
