Chapter 543: Trial Plane (5)

Chu Yining said unappreciably: "Mr. Augustus, we have brought some quite advanced technology, and we hope to sell it through you." ”

"What kind of technology?"

For the sake of fairness, Chu Yining translated every word to Huang Xuan, and at this moment, he estimated the technology of similar times and said: "I don't know if Mr. Augustus understands rotational farming?" ”

Without understanding the specific era and similarity, Chu Yining's analysis of the technical level of the feudal era is almost the same as the level of ordinary people analyzing the people of the Bronze Age, and it is easy to deviate.

She carefully told Augustus II that it was advantageous to divide the land into three parts, and to cultivate only one-third of the land each year, rather than one-half of the land per year.

Augustus II looked at Chu Yining's small mouth with a "mystery", "mystery" and "fascination", Huang Xuan snickered beside him, and at the same time confirmed a few points more seriously.

Chu Yi glanced at Huang Xuan, she rarely made similar transactions, usually she was used to negotiating after having an absolute advantage - this is the advantage of beautiful women, they are always able to negotiate when they have an advantage. But Huang Xuan's "interjection" made her have to start a seemingly fair but actually unfair deal, and before that she was not even sure what was in this era.

is also a contempt for Huang Xuan, coupled with wanting to understand Huang Xuan's thoughts, which made her actively and unfairly respond.

After talking about the three-field rotational ploughing, Chu Yining began to talk about the application of heavy wheel plows and horses, especially the reform of horse harnesses and equipment, until several guards couldn't help laughing - three-day rotational cultivation was 200 years ago, and now in Europe, due to the beginning of fertilizer production, the advantages of two-field rotational cultivation are prominent, and as for horse equipment, it is even earlier.

This may be the most embarrassing moment in Chu Yining's life, especially in front of a few aborigines, and in front of Huang Xuan.

She almost couldn't help but feel angry, and Huang Xuan said slowly: "You tell him that I am a Chinese." ”

Chu Yining said the most words when he knew the least about the other party, and he couldn't help but be ashamed. Out of promise, and also to understand Huang Xuan more, Chu Yining truthfully translated Huang Xuan's words.

She was surprised to find that Augustus II's bright "color" eyes turned to Huang Xuan, and said, "You...... No braids. ”

Huang Xuan laughed out loud, 1709 was the heyday of the Kangxi Dynasty of the Qing Dynasty, and along with the luxury of Louis XIV, Chinese porcelain was highly respected.

The "mighty king" left three legacies to the world – a large group of heirs, Dresden, which was renovated like Little Paris, and hard porcelain.

In Europe before Augustus II, the aristocracy wanted porcelain in two ways, the first was to buy expensive and deadly Chinese porcelain, which Louis XIV used. Augustus II was a huge fan of porcelain in all of Europe, and his most glorious deed was the exchange of 600 hardcover Saxon cavalrymen for 24 Chinese porcelain, which is said to be worth 24,000 thalers. That's a huge amount of money, and if it were converted into real estate, it would be possible to build several large estates in Berlin plus thousands of serfs.

Ordinary aristocrats could not afford to buy Chinese porcelain, they called such porcelain white "color" gold, so cheaper "silver" appeared-soft porcelain. In modern parlance, soft porcelain is porcelain with too much vitreous body – in fact, it is a sign of technical failure. As the name suggests, soft porcelain is too soft and does not have enough hardness and strength to be easily scratched by a knife and fork.

Even so, soft porcelain is not something that is wanted, it took Europeans 200 years to study, and practical soft porcelain was born in Lyon, France, and later appeared in Italy.

Augustus' greatest legacy to Germany and Europe is his porcelain.

It was in 1709 that Augustus discovered in Saxony a precious layer of ceramic clay that gave the basis for the manufacture of soft porcelain, and for the past hundred years the Germans have been persistently studying the secrets of Chinese porcelain, and history has given Mr. Frederick a chance, for which he spent most of his treasury and found the famous alchemist Bettger.

A transaction mentioned by a Chinese made the old "color" ghost Augustus allocate at least sixty percent of his attention to Huang Xuan, and the remaining part was still drifting on Chu Yining.

Huang Xuan winked at Chu Yining and said, "You translate for him, I know how to make the best hard porcelain, I am Kangxi's imperial porcelain master." ”

Chu Yining flipped it over and said, "Porcelain? Royal?"

"That's right." Huang Xuan laughed.

Augustus finally paid all his attention to Huang Xuan, and waved his hand: "I am very interested in porcelain, but at this time, the way you visit is too ......"

Huang Xuan listened to the gentle simultaneous translation, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Miss Chu, now is the time for you to exert your divine powers. ”

Chu Yining glanced at him dissatisfiedly and said, "Don't you also have a 'palm plane'?" ”

Huang Xuan grinned and said, "It can't be used in this plane. ”

He didn't worry that Chu Yining would have evil thoughts because of this, in fact, no matter whether he had a human plane or not, if he really fought, the fit would determine the result, and no matter how much energy he had, he would be idle.

Such a little lie can only be suspected, not exposed, who knows what special "characteristics" the plane in the palm of the hand has, and what special "characteristics" there are in the trial plane.

Chu Yining pursed her lips, her slender legs kicked on the ground violently, and the distance of four or five meters was instantaneous, she blocked two crossbow arrows with her energy shield, and then smashed the guards to the ground one by one.

Augustus bravely drew a two-handed sword.

Huang Xuan waved his hand again and again and said, "Misunderstanding and misunderstanding." ”

Chu Yining translated angrily. Huang Xuan's guy is purely using her as a thug, and she can see this.

"You go ahead and tell him that we can make the best porcelain for him in 5 days, but for money." Huang Xuan hurriedly said.

A few escaped guards brought more guards, but they probably drained the entire dormitory's defenses. Half a century ago, during the Thirty Years' War, the Holy Roman Empire (Note 1) had amassed more than 400,000 troops, but as the Elector of Saxony, he now had only a few hundred guards.

Augustus stood behind more guards, and he didn't feel safe, he didn't dare to look at Chu Yining now, and he didn't give the order to attack.

Huang Xuan said with a smile: "If you want porcelain, prepare a comfortable dormitory for us, with warm water and servants, and we can have a good talk tomorrow morning." ”

Without much insistence, Frederick agreed, not even being woken up from his dreams, coupled with the fury of the attack. The German lords of this era were interesting, proud and inferior, poor and envious of luxury, worshipping force and repeatedly defeated, and the whole of Europe regarded them as hillbillies, and they themselves were no exception.

At the beginning of the 18th century, France was the center of the world, the fashion capital, and Germans dreamed of joining it. What the gentlemen of the 21st century could not have imagined was that in this land that had experienced countless wars, countless small states and the entire empire was in disintegration, the weak German monarchs were unwilling to trade any production and living goods overseas, and their only trade needs were luxury goods.

Whoever could provide luxuries, the German lords were willing to pay large sums of money and have considerable respect.

Dresden's bedchamber was modeled after the Palace of Versailles, with French artists, gentlemen who were called craftsmen at the time, and two maids led Huang Xuan and Chu Yining through the marble courtyard, the semicircular dome and the relief painting room, before arriving at the guest room, decorated with carvings, paintings and tapestries.

Huang Xuan said with a smile at this time: "Miss Chu, it is said that I won, right?" Then you should listen to me. ”

Chu Yining is not a stubborn person, although the competition proposed by Huang Xuan is very unfair, it also proves that in this plane, his opinion is more important, so she turned her back to Huang Xuan, looked at the tapestry on the wall and said, "It is only valid in this plane." ”

"Hey, that's good." Huang Xuan didn't dare to say anything superfluous, so as not to annoy Chu Yining, in fact, if there was no military support from Miss Chu, he might not be able to do anything.

……

There was not only one room in the guest room, Chu Yining asked for a hot shower early, and she was very satisfied with Huang Xuan's request. Warm water and good food are indeed the foundation of a good life.

Huang Xuan had a similar request. But Xiao Huang did a lot of calculations, but he didn't expect the degree of "sexualization" in the German dormitory.

There are no toilets, no toilet facilities – the designers sacrificed the bathtub for the sake of the beautiful design.

It is no wonder that later French kings went to build villas outside.

Hearing Chu Yining's angry order, Huang Xuan couldn't help but lie on the bed, and simply didn't prepare to take a bath. He has not yet thought of a more serious problem. Historically, the crown prince of France could only urinate in the fireplace, and Mr. Elector of Saxony completely imitated the Palace of Versailles.

For the sake of fashion, people in the 21st century can open their chests and "breasts" in winter; For the sake of fashion, people in the 18th century could defecate in the living room.

The chaotic form lasted for a long time, Huang Xuan pricked up his ears to listen to Chu Yining's negotiations with the maids, as well as the occasional courtesy of Mr. Augustus, fantasizing about the scene of the legendary beauty bathing in warm water in the bucket, and fell asleep in a daze.

……

Note 1: The Holy Roman Empire: Some friends may mistakenly understand that this is Italy, but in fact, the name has nothing to do with Italy, Rome and the Holy See, it is a Germanic nation-state including today's Austria and Vienna, and in a less sophisticated case, it can be considered the predecessor of Germany, which is a standard medieval feudal empire.
