Chapter 133: The Envoy of the Wa Kingdom

The New Year is approaching, and Wang Qihong's business in Gaochang has not made much progress, which is also a matter of no choice, and only after the price of rice in Datang has dropped can there be a big move. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Fortunately, although the scale is small at present, various processes have been arranged, and I went home a month in advance to wait for the New Year.

Xiaoyu has made a little trouble this year, but she has also done some things, and the biggest gain is to make an instrument for detecting metals, of course, Wang Haoran's guidance is indispensable. When Xu Mian and Yu Zizhao found a new species, they made filaments and wound them around an iron rod, and the two ends were electrified, which could make the iron rod magnetic, indicating that the new species was metal. Those metals that are difficult to distinguish can also be distinguished by the magnitude of the magnetic force generated, and this delicate part has taken Chen Jun and them a lot of time.

Xu Mian and Yu Zizhao found a lot of metals, but Wang Haoran didn't know what kind of metals they were, and Xu Mian and they gave names to those metals, which were completely different from the names given by later generations. What is certain is that those are certainly not tungsten, the extraction of tungsten is still relatively difficult, it is impossible to dissolve it in a furnace, and at present they have not been able to make the furnace temperature reach 2,000 degrees. Tungsten can only be oxidized first and then used to extract tungsten, and whether you can find tungsten ore depends on luck, Wang Haoran does not know what tungsten ore looks like.

Wang Jingxiu and the other three people built the villa area to the middle of the track after the hurried to survey the route from Puzhou to Chang'an, this time has been surveyed far away, did not go back to Puzhou to live, just brought a tent to spend the night outside, although it is hard, but when I think of the scene of the steam-powered car speeding on the track, I am still excited.

And Chen Jun, although the steam-powered car has been designed, but this is a big guy, and the processing technology has to be specially designed for this, and the processing equipment must also be remade, and even the handling has to make suitable tools, so until now, the steam-powered car has not been officially produced.

Xu Xuan'an will not return to Chang'an this year, and the success of Hangzhou's large-scale planting of the first generation of rice seeds has doubled his confidence, and he plans to purchase more fields this time to produce seeds, exchange rice seeds, recruit workers, etc., which are all matters that need to be solved urgently. Compared with the northerners, the southerners are more concerned about the matter of rice, and after the harvest of the first generation of rice seeds, many businessmen soon came to visit Xu Xuan'an, hoping that they could also grow mixed rice. Xu Xuanan didn't dare to make the decision, so he wrote to Wang Haoran, Wang Haoran felt that it was difficult to popularize the first generation of rice seeds by himself, and it was impossible to produce many seeds alone, so he agreed. However, the merchant must make a profit after all, and all he can do for the poor people is to set a suitable uniform price for the first generation of rice seeds. As for what the price will rise in the future, as a merchant, he has no way to stop it, unless Li Shimin introduces relevant policies.

The original land in Puzhou was not sold, and Wang Haoran only rented it out to others to grow a season of grain, and this season was to be taken back and replanted with mixed rice for seed production. After Xu Xuan'an went to Hangzhou, Wang Haoran chose a clever person among the old employees to take care of these things, not to engage in research, but to simply produce seeds.

Wang Haoran's two children are less than two months old, and they are afraid of discomfort after a long ride in the carriage, and Li Liushuang and Xie Qingyou are still weak, so he originally planned not to return to Chang'an. But according to custom, the new son-in-law must take his wife to his father-in-law's house for the first New Year, so before returning to Chang'an for the New Year, Wang Haoran asked the car to install a shock absorbing device, and the car was also carefully arranged to strive for comfort and warmth.

What Wang Haoran didn't expect was that after returning to Chang'an, his well-arranged car quickly spread, which brought a slight impact to the ideas of the people of Datang. In the past, the people of the Tang Dynasty always thought that taking a car was a hard thing, which led to the saying that the boat was tiring, and over time, this became common sense. And after seeing Wang Haoran's car, I had a little understanding, it turns out that enjoyment can be everywhere!

Wang Haoran had not returned to Chang'an for a few days, and Liu Xiangyu suddenly came to the door.

Wang Haoran saw Liu Xiangyu's cautious face, and had an ominous premonition, so he took him to his room and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"The Dao Seeker Sect has been dispatched!"

Wang Haoran had asked Liu Xiangyu to pay close attention to the whereabouts of those hidden sects before, and he was worried that they would target him. And the Dao Seeking Sect is one of the hidden sects that seek immortals and ask questions, and it is also the most ruthless of the hidden sects known to everyone.

"Can you find out what they're going to do?" Wang Haoran was a little surprised, he felt that what he was doing was quite understandable, why did the Dao Seeking Sect target him so quickly?

"I didn't find out." Liu Xiangyu explained, "The Dao Seeking Sect has always been cautious, and those spies of mine have not been able to penetrate too deeply. However, I have found some other situations in the Dao Seeking Sect, and the little young master may use it as a reference. More than 10 years ago, a family in a small village in Hadong Province was hit by an extraterrestrial meteorite, killing everyone except the baby and his mother, who were not a few days old. Some people say that the baby is a disaster star, and some people are a lucky star, but no matter what star it is, it is certainly not an ordinary person. Less than half a month later, the baby disappeared, and his mother was slashed to death at home by a strong martial artist. Nine times out of ten, this was done by the Dao Seeking Sect. What's more, although the Seeking Dao Sect is a hidden sect, the power it controls is not small, and the status in the rivers and lakes is needless to say, and many merchants and court officials are controlled by it. ”

"In this way, the Dao Seeker Sect should also have a special intelligence gathering agency, so you should pay more attention to this matter. But don't worry too much, my special team can be said to have been set up specifically to deal with them, and if they dare to show up in front of me, I will let him disappear. ”

Having said that, Wang Haoran was also very cautious about this, and he entered the palace to ask Li Shimin for some privileges that day.

Wang Haoran went to the back garden under the leadership of the eunuch, at this time Li Shimin was talking with a few courtiers in the pavilion, Wang Haoran did not dare to step forward, so he had to wait for the eunuch to report and wait for the arrangement.

Li Shimin saw Wang Haoran coming, and beckoned: "Haoran, come here, you came just in time, I just talked about you!" ”

Wang Haoran walked forward quickly to salute, and soon he found two short men dressed strangely in the pavilion.

One of the short men saluted Wang Haoran and said, "The villain has heard the name of the little young master for a long time, and it is really an honor to see him today!" ”

From the short man's awkward words, Wang Haoran had already guessed the identities of these two people, and replied with a return salute and asked, "Could it be that the two of you are envoys from the Japanese Kingdom?" ”

"Little master, good eyesight! The villain's name is Inugami Ota Shovel, and this is Yakushi Huiri. The villain came to Chang'an and passed through Zhongcheng before, but he couldn't see you, and he has always regretted it. ”

"It turned out to be a guest from afar, disrespectful and disrespectful!" Wang Haoran coped, Inougami Yutian Shovel has always called himself a villain, and he is not good at correcting him, maybe this person and other people here also call themselves like this, if so, if he corrects himself, he will lose the face of others.
