Chapter 248: Liu Fan who was worried

Liu Fan left the palace with a depressed mood, and when Liu Fan returned home, it was already dark. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Seeing her husband's dejected look, Shuying was very surprised and said, "What's wrong, husband?" Didn't Your Majesty agree to your request? Shouldn't it be? ā€

Liu Fan replied weakly, "That's not it, for the matter of the British duke, His Majesty agreed very happily." ā€

Shuying came to Liu Fan's side, intimately took the big coat of his cover, and asked with a surprised face, "Why is that husband worried?" ā€

Liu Fan sighed, picked up the teacup on the table, took a big sip, and then opened his mouth to tell the things encountered in the palace, of course, Liu Fan just roughly described it, and he didn't dare to say anything about crying nose, otherwise would he still have the perfect image that he had managed to maintain? After talking about the whole thing, Liu Fan sighed at the end, "Ying'er, do you say that as a husband, this is not a way to steal chickens, but to eat rice?" Not only did he not get any benefits, but he also put himself in it! ā€

Shu Yingjiao smiled and said, "Husband, you are too pessimistic, how do you know if you are blessed if you lose your horse?" Although on the surface, the husband seems to have suffered a big loss, in fact, if you think about it carefully, the husband has made a lot of money. First, our goal of asking to see His Majesty has been achieved. Second, His Majesty's request for his husband to send troops must have been considered a long time ago, and the difference is only a matter of time or time. Now that the husband knew one step earlier, wouldn't it be a great blessing that he had won the troops that only used Oxtonburg? The most important thing is that the husband also knows about the change in His Majesty's attitude towards you, so that he has a way to resolve the crisis. ā€

Liu Fan looked back and thought that this was indeed the case, and his heart suddenly brightened, and he couldn't help but hold his wife's pretty face, kiss it fiercely, and exclaimed, "Ying'er is so smart!" Being able to marry you is my Liu Fan's greatest blessing! ā€

Shuying wiped the place on her pretty face where Liu Fan was sneak attacked, and said coquettishly, "I hate it!" The husband is full of sweat and smells bad, so don't hurry up and take a bath! As he spoke, he pushed Liu Fan and walked out of the door.

Liu Fan was playful, turned around and hugged his wife into his arms, and said with a wicked smile, "Hehe, since Ying'er feels so sorry for her husband, let's wash it together!" ā€

"Don't!" Ignoring his wife's exclamation, Liu Fan picked up his little wife and strode towards the bathroom...

In the early morning, a ray of golden sunlight sprinkled into the bedside along the edge of the window, Liu Fan rubbed his eyes with one hand, carefully pulled out his numb arm, and smiled bitterly, Shuying always likes to sleep with her arm pillow for some reason, is it that she is not used to this hard pillow?

After getting dressed and gently tucking the quilt, Liu Fan opened the door lightly and walked out of the door. Seeing Liu Fan appear, Mo'er Shi'er hurriedly sent the hot water towel that had been prepared. After washing his face, he took the willow branch handed over by Shi'er, skillfully flattened the willow branch with his teeth, ground it into silk, dipped it in salt, and began to brush his teeth. Spit out the salt water in his mouth, Liu Fan complained in his heart, even if the pillow is hard, he still has to brush his teeth with this willow branch, and the mouth is astringent, which is really uncomfortable. If only there was toothpaste and toothbrush. A flash of inspiration, huh? By the way, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and soap or something, this is a good way to make a fortune, low technology, easy to manufacture, maybe you can make a lot of money? In the past, there was no time and no technology, but now I have to stay in the capital for more than two months, wouldn't it be a waste to guard Xu Guangqi, the biggest "scientist" in the Ming Dynasty, not to get these money-making things out?

Thinking that he was going to do it, Liu Fan couldn't care about eating breakfast at the moment, and yelled, "Little Tiger!" Go get me some carpenters, I want the kind you can trust, you know? I'm of great use, sir! ā€

Li Xiaohu hurriedly ran to Liu Fan and asked with a puzzled expression, "Master, what are you doing looking for a carpenter this early in the morning?" We don't have a carpenter in the house! ā€

Liu Fan glared at him and said, "If not, go find it!" Ask so much what to do! Are you a lord or am I a lord? Malaly, I have something big to do! ā€

"Of course you're the master!" Li Xiaohu had no choice but to accept his life.

For a whole day, Liu Fan devoted himself to the great cause of inventing the "toothbrush". After research, Liu Fan found that this toothbrush seems simple, but it is not easy to really create a qualified toothbrush. The handle of the toothbrush is easy to make, it is nothing more than to make a long strip of thin wood and then make some small holes, the technical content is not high, according to Liu Fan's description, the carpenters easily made a few according to Liu Fan's requirements. But Liu Fan made a big worry about the choice of this bristle, the toothbrush of later generations, the bristles are made of nylon silk, but now it is Daming, which makes Liu Fan where to find nylon silk!

Liu Fan couldn't find nylon silk and had to replace it with other things, wool, bristles, raw silk, and hair of various animals Liu Fan tried them one by one, and finally found that what could really be used was wool and bristles. But wool too soft, bristles too hard is not too ideal. And because it's animal hair, it smells very bad, and you can't stand the smell of such a thing, let alone putting it in your mouth.

Seeing Liu Fan embarrassed, an old carpenter suggested that according to the traditional method, wool and bristles can eliminate odors, but they must be soaked in water for a long time and then dried before they can be used. Although the method is effective, it takes too long, which is inconsistent with Liu Fan's mass production, and Liu Fan does not want to use it.

Did you give up on an idea to make a fortune that had come to mind? Liu Fan was a little unwilling. Suddenly thinking of something, Liu Fan hurriedly asked, "How do those furs outside the gate remove the odor?" The grasslands produce more than 100 million furs every year! How can so many fur clothes smell bad? ā€

The old carpenter sighed and replied, "My lord is right, we are very clear that there is a method of nitration to quickly remove the smell of fur, but the method of nitrate of fur has always been a secret of large merchants outside the customs. It's not easy for adults to think about it. ā€

Liu Fan nodded, it's good to have a way, with Liu Fan's current status, I'm afraid that I won't be able to get a secret recipe. Coercion and temptation, Liu Fan has the means to make them obediently hand over the secret recipe! And businessmen have always valued profits, so Liu Fan doesn't believe that he can succeed with a lot of money?

The toothbrush matter was temporarily solved, but Liu Fan was at a loss for the toothpaste matter. He only knew that the toothpaste of later generations was made using salt and Tian Qi. But Liu Fan doesn't know anything about how to make it, and with the current scientific and technological means, it is difficult to make a toothpaste as delicate as the future generations. Do you still have to use salt? That's too bad, isn't it? (To be continued.) )
