Master Zhou closed his eyes and pondered for a while, then suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Duan Fei with bright eyes, and said in a deep voice: "You said that this thing can be magnified a thousand times?" ”

Duan Fei nodded affirmatively, and Master Zhou turned his head to the old shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper Zhang, if this thing is really useful, it will be of great benefit to us in carving small utensils, I want to make this thing with Master Liu as soon as possible." ”

Duan Fei shrugged, spread his hands and said, "But I don't have that much money." ”

Master Zhou smiled slightly and said, "If this thing is really useful, as long as you promise me a condition, I will give you the big convex mirror for free, if this thing is useless, I will only charge you one hundred and fifty taels of silver for two things, how about it?" ”

"On what terms?" Duan Fei asked vigilantly.

Master Zhou smiled and said: "That is, try to keep it secret, don't use this thing casually in front of people, and allow us Bao Daxiang to copy this thing at will." ”

"It's two conditions!" Duan Fei said quickly: "But I promise you, a word is a certainty, and the horse is difficult to chase!" ”

Zhou Zhe smiled and said, "Master Liu, you first help this son make that big convex mirror, this ...... Microscope...... I need to think about its structure first, this thing is designed by Childe, if Childe has nothing to do, you can point it out, or you can also go to the street, that big convex mirror can be obtained in about an hour, this microscope...... I'm afraid it will take a few days. ”

Duan Fei shook his head and said, "No, I want it before noon tomorrow, I'll get it with you, but the price will have to be reduced again, and there is also the problem of food and accommodation for the two of us......"

Zhou Zhe smiled and said: "Childe is really good at calculation, okay, these are all counted in my account, shopkeeper Zhang, please arrange food and accommodation for them, can you start?" ”

The microscope is indeed much more complex than the magnifying glass, the specifications of each mirror are not independent and arbitrary, the diameter, thickness, curvature, transmittance, and refraction angle of the large and small lenses are very particular, these 21st century middle school students know the knowledge but the most outstanding jewelers of this era are puzzled, Duan Fei had to slowly give him a basic physics lesson in optics with his hands and mouth, and after he understood these knowledge, the redesigned microscope is simpler and more practical than the one drawn by Duan Fei, and several wooden boards set up the lenses one by one, Coupled with an oblique tube that can be lifted and sliding, a primitive microscope has finally been developed!

The microscope is one of the greatest inventions in the history of science in the world, when it first appeared in the land of the Ming Dynasty, it caused a small sensation in the backyard of Bao Daxiang, everyone rushed to use the microscope to see objects smaller than the tip of the needle, they found for the first time that there were so many subtle creatures alive in the clear water droplets, Zhang Lao Shopkeeper couldn't help but exclaim after seeing it: "No wonder the scriptures say 'Buddha view a bowl of water, 84,000 insects', it is really true!" ”

Shi Bin was also surprised, but he didn't quite understand what this thing was for, Duan Fei didn't spend the last penny, so he took a magnifying glass and a microscope and returned to Baoying County by boat.

After entering the city in the evening, I learned that Jiang Chang and the five of them had been beheaded at noon, although Jiang Chang wanted to sue for retrial according to Duan Fei's words, but Lord Min was worried about the extraneous branches, so he directly beheaded the people, and the bodies of the five of them were strictly arrested and collected.

Duan Fei and Shi Bin bought incense paper candles, returned to the Yamen mortuary to worship the five of them, Yan Zhutou had been arranged, the second morning, the entire Baoying County was shrouded in the sound of firecrackers, the He family's funeral team was three miles long, but there was only a group of brothers from the east of the city who went to send Jiang Chang and others, which looked extremely desolate.

After the funeral, Duan Fei came to the He family, and the Min County Order and a respected elder of the He family were responsible for presiding over the separation of the two brothers He Shan and He Hai.

The situation is very bad for He Hai, he is a concubine, plus the notoriety of gangsters, at first almost all people surnamed He were against the immediate separation, and some people even thought that He Hai should be a little guy in the He family's shop and stay honestly, if he behaves well in a few years, then the eldest brother will be the master to marry his daughter-in-law and divide the small field or give him a small shop to run it.

Gradually, the separation discussion meeting became He Hai's criticism meeting, Duan Fei was already in a bad mood, and the more he listened, the more angry he became, he stood up and shouted: "Shut up for me!" ”

In an instant, all the noisy sounds like boiling water just now disappeared, leaving only Duan Fei's roar vibrating back and forth in the hall.

Duan Fei roared angrily: "Isn't the son born to the little wife a son? Which of the Ming laws stipulates that the concubine cannot divide the family property equally with the concubine? How many of the old men here have no concubines and no children? Since you have given birth to them, you must give them a fair chance, otherwise you will not marry so many women and go home, and give birth to a large litter of children without raising or educating them, what is it! ”

On this occasion, the attendees were all the leaders of the clan surnamed He, and it was common for wealthy men in the family to take concubines, and almost everyone had a share, and after scolding Duan Fei for a while, everyone was speechless for a while.

Duan Fei continued to say loudly: "A group of old men have added up to thousands of years old, and they actually bullied He Hai, a child who has just turned eighteen years old, together to bully He Hai, a child who has just turned eighteen, if you don't feel ashamed, I will blush for you!" Whether to divide the family or not is a matter between He Shan and He Hai brothers, how to know that Lord Min of the county will deal with it fairly, even if He Hai loses all his family property after the separation, it has nothing to do with you, you are at most a witness, what right do you have to chirp here? Did you take someone's benefits, and you want to take advantage of the chaos to get some oil and water or please anyone? Tell you, don't dream, He Hai is my brother, who dares to think clearly for him, Lao Tzu will not do this little catch quickly and consume it with you, Brother A Fei of Baoying County will never watch his brother suffer! ”

"Ah, it's really the scoundrel Ah Fei in the east of the city...... What did he do to catch fast? At this time, many people recognized Duan Feilai, who was rejuvenated and bright, and exclaimed that there was a lot of discussion, and the hall became noisy.

Lord Min shouted: "Sit down, Duan Fei, don't threaten everyone, this official has his own judgment!" ”

Duan Fei took the opportunity to step down, and he said loudly: "Yes, my lord, I'm just angry that they bullied my brother in public, I naturally say what they say, unless they all shut up, I naturally won't say it." Duan Fei's gaze swept over coldly, and everywhere he went, everyone hung their heads awe, and no one dared to look at him.

He Hai stood up and said gratefully: "Thank you Brother Fei for speaking for me, I believe that Lord Min and the elders of the clan here will give me justice, in fact, the matter of dividing the family has been approved by my father when he was alive, and it is precisely because of this sister-in-law that she was impatient to poison my father......"

"Don't mention that poisonous woman again, blame me for going out to do business all day long and not disciplining ...... properly" He Shan's face was full of grief and remorse, he was really dumb and couldn't say that he was suffering from eating Coptis chinensis, but there was also a hint of happiness in his heart, because if the truth was not revealed, I am afraid that he would be the next to be poisoned.

Mentioning this matter at this moment also made those who were quite factional and inward-looking, no matter how it was He Shan's daughter-in-law who poisoned her father-in-law for adultery and property, He Shan naturally had a lot of responsibility, and on this occasion he was most afraid that no one would speak for him, Duan Fei opened his head, and He Hai was not a good person, so he took the opportunity to mention this matter, so everything was reversed.

The separation of the family is finally on the right track, He Xiong's title deeds, shops and various movable properties are on the table, not to know, the He family is really rich, no wonder there are so many people running to join in the fun.

It is relatively easy to divide the cash and the silver deposited in the bank, but the real estate deeds and gold and silver jewelry are more difficult to value, and sometimes it takes a long time to discuss the price of a calligraphy and painting.

At this time, He Hai made a decision that surprised Duan Fei, let alone the others.

He Hai suggested to Lord Min: "My lord, it takes a long time to divide the family like this, and it will inevitably delay everyone's business, why don't you like this, these things that are difficult to estimate can be set at the lowest price that everyone agrees on, and give me the silver at the lowest price, and the things belong to the eldest brother, I don't know what the adults think?" ”

This method is really fast, but He Hai will inevitably suffer, but since he proposed it himself, everyone has no opinion, He Shantui accepted it after a few words, and then it was simple to divide the family property, and the property had been divided in less than half an hour, and He Hai had divided several shops and real estate, a number of land, and 63,000 taels of silver.

After getting the real estate deed and the large amount of silver tickets issued by Chase Yinzhuang, He Hai couldn't help but burst into tears, he bowed a few times to the spiritual seat of his father enshrined in the hall, and said loudly: "Dad, please forgive the child for being unfilial!" ”

Everyone was puzzled, He Hai wiped away his tears, stood up and looked around, clenched his fists and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, uncles and brothers of the same clan, eldest brother, I plan to exchange these fields, real estate and shops in my hands for silver within three days, you can give priority to the purchase, I will sell it to you at eighty percent of the original price, you don't want to see the He family's property fall into the hands of outsiders, right?" Then come and buy it, anyway, I'm a loser, you don't have to persuade me to scold me, I've made up my mind, except for leaving a house for my mother to live in, everything else will be exchanged for silver, I want to go out like my dad back then, and I will never come back until I mix it up! ”

Hearing He Hai's resolute and firm tone, everyone saved a little saliva, even if they secretly scolded the loser, there was no exit.

He Shan applauded with brilliance: "Okay, ambitious, Haizi, the eldest brother misjudged you before, these properties were earned back by my father back then, I bought them all, but I just split the family, and almost all the silver is distributed to you, and it will take me about half a month to raise silver taels." ”

"Okay, if the eldest brother buys it, I will only accept seventy percent!" He Hai said: "I'm going out in two days, big brother give me an IOU first......
