Chapter 58: VIP Letter
Li Hang, who wanted to make maltose, had no idea how much shock the artifact he had sacrificed.
The platinum VIP eagle courier has arrived at the Zhenbei General's Mansion, and the drawings brought back have not yet been warmed up, and they were sent into the palace by one of Zhao Haikuo's sons-in-law.
Although it was not the time of the early dynasty, the drawings sent in at this time still attracted the attention of Emperor Yingwu.
In Emperor Yingwu's study, all three divisions were present.
Whether it was Sima Leixiao or Sikong Xiaoying, or Situ Wanglu, who was silent on the side, all had a serious face.
Zhao Haikuo went with a mission, otherwise he wouldn't need to take action at all just for this kind of change of guard.
He was going to observe Li Hang, so his reply this time was quite important.
Although it is said that the imperial court will not do anything for a little scholar, but the person who bravely captures Hamuli and can still say those words is still a little talented, and such a person is wasted in a small port.
"This is the letter presented by my father, and after the minister received it, he immediately sent it to the palace and handed it to His Majesty without opening it."
Emperor Win Wu waved his hand to make him stand down, and then unfolded the drawings for the three divisions to see.
"Lei Xiao, you are Sima, in charge of the power of the whole country's soldiers and horses, if these stirrups and horseshoes are all loaded to our cavalry, how much time will it take?" Emperor Win Wu said with his eyes down.
He is the founding emperor and known as Emperor Wu, so he is naturally the most capable of fighting.
He who has been on the battlefield naturally knows the power of the cavalry, this horseshoe is a good thing, it can make the war horse more difficult to wear and tear, not to mention, it can also effectively prevent some means such as thistle terrestris.
It's pretty good war horse equipment.
And on the back of the stirrup drawing is also attached a sentence written by Zhao Haikuo, which is exactly what Li Hang said about shortening the training time.
The Great Win Dynasty is deeply plagued by nomads, and if it can form a cavalry that can only confront it, that is the way to go!
And at this time, the Great Winning Dynasty really couldn't take out such a decent cavalry.
Without saying a word, Lei Xiao knelt on the ground. "This thing is said to be an artifact, but I'm afraid it's underestimated! It is a great blessing for the country to receive such treasures! It is enough to see Your Majesty's blessings! ”
Sikong Xiaoying nodded, and then looked at Emperor Yingwu. "Your Majesty, this thing is very simple, and it is not very troublesome to make, there are craftsmen in each army, if it is too troublesome, you can send the drawings down and order it to forge it by itself!"
"What a great request this son has!" It took a long time for the king to hold back such a sentence.
There were only four people in the study, and the old eunuch on the side was almost negligible.
But it was this sentence that made Emperor Win Wu laugh.
Wang Situ Wang Lu is a representative of the southern scholars, and it is normal for people to not be welcome to the northern scholars, but he feels that Wang Situ is not wrong. Such an artifact was delivered, what did he ask for?
"If not, he will be given an official position?" Emperor Win Wu frowned, this is indeed a great merit, not to mention that Li Hang still took the initiative to send it, it can be said that this can be regarded as a treasure.
"I don't think I'd better give me some money!" Wang Lu held back for a long time and finally opened his mouth.
Sending the officer? I waited for the southern scholars to work so hard to endorse the exam, and you can become an official if you send two pieces of paper to a northern scholar, no, you must not be able to set such a precedent!
Xiao Ying smiled. "Wang Situ is not in a hurry, since General Zhao has sent this drawing in an urgent manner, there will definitely be a twist and turn in the future, why don't we wait!"
Outside the palace, in the inner courtyard of the Su Mansion, the old lady sitting on a chair was listening to the maid reading an urgent letter sent by Su De.
After hearing him finish reading, he frowned. "Parenting is getting worse and worse! actually offended the Zhenbei General's Mansion, and at this time, I am afraid that the old man will have to go on a trip in person. Xiu Shu told Su De that from now on, Su Yu will be grounded in the trading house, and my old bones will have to go to this Donglin port! This Li Xiucai is amazing! He can climb the high branches of General Zhao's Mansion, I am afraid that he will soar to the sky in the future! It's a pity that this person is not from my Su Mansion! ”
The little maid on the side covered her mouth and snickered. "Ancestor, it's better to bring your granddaughter with you, it's just a play, if you see it, then Li Xiucai is not a member of our Su family?"
"Huh?" Mrs. Su glanced at this presumptuous girl, but she had another plan in her heart.
Not to mention the rest, just this soap business, Su De said that it is worth a thousand gold, if he can really reconcile with this Li Xiucai and climb the Zhenbei General's Mansion, then the pressure on the Su family will be much less due to this private salt matter.
This is a good thing for the Su family, after all, if you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, this dignitary in Jinling City, you can cover your eyes and say that you can't see it, but as long as you cooperate with the Zhao family, then as a partner, the Zhao family, you can't say that Lao Tzu still hasn't seen it!
"Pack up! Let's go! The old lady of the Su family waved her hand and stood up with the support of several maids.
Li Hang didn't know all this, he was now cutting the malt, soaking it with these glutinous rice, steaming it, mixing it with malt and fermenting it, and then using cotton cloth and adding stones, you can directly squeeze out the maltose in it.
The obtained syrup still has water, and it is boiled in a pot to evaporate the water to get maltose. Although the amount is not very large, this maltose is sweet.
Looking at the shopkeeper Su on the side, Li Hang's eyes rolled.
It's a waste to eat this boiled syrup like this.
Seeing this maltose, he was reminded of his childhood memories.
You must know that there are not many people who make maltose when he is a child, but there is one thing that can make him, a primary school student, stop and watch for a long time.
That's sugar painting!
Turn a shape, and then the sugar painter will use maltose to draw it for you, with dragons, phoenixes, chickens and rabbits, a variety of vivid patterns, absolutely childhood memories.
As soon as he thought of this, Li Hang couldn't help laughing. "Shopkeeper Su, I don't know if there is a marble table in the trading house?"
"Yes!"
"Can I borrow it?"
Shopkeeper Su almost didn't give Li Hang a blank look.
If you want to, just say it, it's so literary, what to borrow, isn't this marble stone table just for use!
The old man waved his hand and told a few of his men to hurry back.
Not long after, the men of the Su family carried a marble stone table into the door.
"I don't know what Li Xiucai wants to do with this table?" Shopkeeper Su is very curious, could it be that this Li Xiucai really wants to use it?
But he couldn't figure out how to use it!
But when he looked at him pouring boiling water, it didn't look like a joke.
This made Shopkeeper Su even more curious.
"Hehe, it's nothing, make something for my wife and sister to eat!"
Li Hang laughed, and after speaking, he asked Wang Dali to heat the maltose, sugar painting is a technical job, and a few of these little children have seen this thing. If you don't let your sister-in-law say a word about your brother-in-law for a while, it's the best, and you can't give it!
