Chapter 720: I Calculated You Will Heal the Water
Yu originally had some doubts about where Qiu Ming lived, he had also seen that mound, it was bare, except for some grass, it seemed that there was nothing else, how could it live?
Could it be that a cave was dug under the mound? But yesterday he passed by the mound, where is the cave, if this man had built his own house, if not with stones, but with wood, it would have taken days. Why don't you help him tomorrow?
But the next day, Yu found that a wooden house appeared on the mound, and this wooden house was extremely beautiful, the surface of the wood was polished very smooth, and each section of wood was the same length and thickness, how did this person do it?
There are no trees nearby, and the nearest forest is two hours away, so it's incredible how long it takes to transport the wood back!
This person can definitely be called a skilled craftsman, and he can even be called a craftsman god, so this person said that he can control water, it should not be false, but unfortunately, this matter has nothing to do with him.
Qiu Ming is already familiar with this kind of wooden house, and even if he wants to, building a brick house is a matter of minutes, but it would be too shocking.
There was also a small fence courtyard at the door of the cabin, and Qiu Ming was sitting on a wooden chair in the courtyard, holding a cup of spiritual tea in his hand, basking in the sun leisurely. He inquired, Yu is going to get married tomorrow, and he has to prepare some gifts.
……
Qiu Ming looked at Yu's home, a house made of mud bricks, this kind of mud bricks are formed by compacting and drying yellow mud and thatch, which is the oldest man-made brick.
The house is not high, it is covered with thatch, and the yard is not big, but it is very clean. Maybe it's because there's nothing in the yard that it's so clean.
There are several tables in the courtyard, all tied with wood, but very sturdy. There were clay pots and bowls on the table, and some people were sitting at the table.
The weather is still very hot, and several people in the courtyard are wearing very "fashionable" animal skin shoulders, and these people can't even afford to wear linen clothes.
When Qiu Ming walked in, Yu was stunned for a moment: "Qiu Ming, you are here too, sit down quickly, and drink some turbid wine for a while." ”
When everyone came, they didn't come empty-handed, but they just brought something casually. Some brought a carp, some with a wild beast, some with some birds' eggs, and some with some fruit, but Qiu Ming brought two baskets, which were covered with grass, and everyone was curious about what was inside.
Once Yu was also regarded as an official eunuch's house, but it was a pity that his father failed to control the water, and was reported to be passive and sabotage, so he was dismissed and exiled, otherwise Yu married a wife, and there would definitely be more than such guests at home, and there would not be only such a thing.
It should be normal for Qiu Ming to bring two baskets of gifts. But now, these two baskets of gifts are too prominent.
Yu was also very puzzled, he and Qiu Ming just met in Pingshui, they got married, and it was normal for the other party to come over for a glass of wine, but it was too strange to give so many gifts.
Some of the guests also talked about it, and one of them, also dressed in linen clothes, was considered the richest man here. He is not an outsider, he is the brother of Yu's wife.
At that time, Yu's father and his father were ministers in the same palace, and the two families set up a family affair, which was normal, and Yu was indeed very satisfied with their family.
But soon Yu's father was sent to die, and their family originally wanted to collapse this family business, but my sister recognized this Yu, and my father could only agree.
This time his sister got married, but he only brought someone to send his relatives over, and his father didn't come forward at all. He also thought in his heart that Yu couldn't help him, but why did someone give such a generous gift today? Who is this man?
The guests asked, and Yu was also curious, so he directly removed the grass on the basket and revealed the contents inside. A whole sheepskin, it was not a precious thing, but when he saw the pattern on the sheepskin, his eyes showed an incredible look.
There are many rivers and some mountains painted on the sheepskin, which is clearly a detailed topographic map of the world, which is a good thing that Emperor Shun may not have!
If you have this, you can do a good job of studying how to deal with the floods. If my father had this, he would not have been exiled.
This is definitely a generous gift and the value is immeasurable!
Under the sheepskin, there were some metal spikes, which didn't look like copper, so he took one out of his hand and stabbed it hard at a stone bench, and it actually pierced it directly!
Who built this to be so sharp? If there was this, it would be much easier to dig boulders, hundreds of times faster than they could have smashed stones at each other!
This basket is empty, and in the other basket, there are also some things made of unknown metal, which seem to be tools, are these all made by this person?
Originally, when he saw Qiu Ming's wooden house, he guessed that Qiu Ming was a good craftsman, but he thought that Qiu Ming only knew how to make wood, and even made these tools. Yes, if it weren't for these tools, how could you have built a wooden house so quickly?
"Brother Qiu Ming, your gift is too valuable."
Such a good tool, and that map, if given to Emperor Shun first, would be enough to exchange for the position of a minister, and even a piece of land.
He and Qiu Ming are not related, how can they accept such a valuable gift. And what is the purpose of the other party giving such a valuable gift?
"None of this is for you alone, but for you to heal the water in the future. Believe me, I will divination, and you will soon be in charge of the floods, the floods of the whole day. Qiu Ming originally wanted to pat Yu's shoulder, but after thinking about it, he patted Yu's arm instead, but there was no way, his hand was raised high to pat other people's shoulders, it was too weird.
In order to help Yu Lai control the water, Qiu Ming deliberately drew a map of the world's rivers and mountains, and for this reason, he even went out of his body and explored the Yellow River Valley.
There is no way, he can draw according to his impression, but in the future, the river will be diverted many times, and the drawing like that must be too wrong.
And those tools are also made by Qiu Ming with iron ore and some special materials, on which he tried to depict the simplest formation, which can only play a strong role, but can also be compared to some special steel, compared with the tools often used now, it is like sharpening a pencil knife and the gap between a special dagger.
The more he helps Yu, the higher the evaluation will be after completing the task. And with these tools, Yu's water control speed will be faster, which is also beneficial to Qiu Ming's task evaluation.
Yu frowned, why did Qiu Ming think that he could be responsible for controlling the flood? Although he had already thought about it in his heart, because of his father's relationship, he didn't have a chance......
