Chapter 81: Small Cover
If you don't sell it, you can give it away? What's this kid's idea? After two days of contact, Gai Rencong already has some understanding of Ma Hanshan, no matter what this kid does or says, he has a certain purpose, he will never fight with others, let alone give others things because of friendship.
Did he send the lamp so that I could promote him? Gai Rencong thought to himself.
"Hehe, there are a lot of lamps and lanterns in Xiangfan Mansion." Gai Rencong said with a smile.
"It doesn't take much, even if you put a lamp in each room, won't there be ten or twenty rooms in the back office? Well, Lord Gai will definitely give one to each person who judges and governors, how can you count it, there are enough 100 lights, right? Forget it, I'll arrange for someone to send 200 lamps to Master Gai. Ma Hanshan pinched his fingers and calculated.
"Is it all this kind of fire and water No. 1 lamp? Can you give me some? This kind of lamp is very convenient for night patrols, which will greatly improve the activity ability of the government officials and border guards. Gai Rencong put away his smile and said, "I don't need you to send it, I spend money to buy it." ”
"The gas dead wind lamp has not been mass-produced yet, so I can only give it to Lord Gai for my own use. When it's time for mass production, I'll send one or two hundred to the adults. Ma Hanshan shook his head and said.
"Okay." Ma Hanshan said so, and Gai Rencong could only wait.
"My lord, it's okay, I'm leaving." The purpose of Ma Hanshan's visit at night was to send lamps to Gai Rencong.
Fire lantern, for this world, is a product beyond the times, how to promote in order to quickly obtain the maximum benefits, Ma Hanshan has already made a plan. Originally, he thought that Lin'an would find an opportunity to communicate with the official people and then send it, first send it to the officials, and then it will definitely be transmitted to the palace, and then send a batch into the palace.
When the officials are all used, and the palace is also used, it is difficult for these fire and water lanterns to be famous, and the palace is used for the upper and lower effects, and you are afraid that no one will use them among the people?
After sending away Mahan Mountain, Gai Rencong did not go to rest, but watched the fire and water lanterns.
For people of this era, an ordinary kerosene lamp is a godsend, because it is something completely new. I haven't seen the oil, the structure I haven't seen, the burning method I haven't seen, the lighting method I haven't seen before.......
Because I've never seen it before, the novelty becomes the magic.
The miraculous peach blossoms, the wonderful suturing surgery, the miraculous fire and water lanterns... Science is amazing, Mahan Mountain is amazing, how many other things are unheard of?
"Someone... Go and call Xuan Ling. Suddenly, Gai Rencong, who was "studying" the kerosene lamp, shouted.
"Father, what are the teachings of the late-night summoner...... In a moment, the small cover in the Mahan Pass Gesebo arrived.
"Xuan Ling hasn't rested yet?" Gai Rencong was very strange how his son came so quickly.
"The child is watching "Spring and Autumn"." Gesebo scratched his head and said.
"Hehe, my son still learns General Guan to read "Spring and Autumn" at night?" Gai Rencong glared at him and said, "What miscellaneous books and wild histories have you found again?" ”
Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, Gesebo didn't sleep so late, first, he heard that Mahanshan was coming, and wanted to see if there was a chance to avenge him... No, it's a feud between two swords. Although he shouted happily on the surface, he always remembered the two swords that Ma Hanshan stabbed him in his heart.
The second is that he has recently become obsessed with "Taiping Guangji", which contains more than ten volumes of female fairies, and he reads it backwards and back, and he also can't put it down because of the biographies of Huo Xiaoyu and Yingying, so he read and read and read and read again.
"Father, the child thinks that "Taiping Guangji" is much better than the four books, with content, howling, logic, plot, and technical ......." Gesebo weakly argued.
"Shut up, no matter how good "Taiping Guangji" is, it can't make you famous, although the Four Books and Five Classics are boring, but after reading them well, they can make you a gold list." Gai Rencong pinched the corners of his forehead and said, "Alas, for my father, there are people in the court who slander him, and he may be transferred or be appointed at any time, once he is transferred or ...... office, everything you are familiar with will no longer exist." ”
"Xuan Ling, if you don't have a reputation for your father, how will it be." Gai Rencong is very worried about this little son, and the mud can't support the wall.
"Father, so many people live well without taking the fame test, why do they have to be so tired to test for fame?" Gai Shibao glanced at Gai Rencong very unconvinced and said, "That Ma Hanshan is not famous, but you respect them very much, and he lives very happily." ”
Alas!
Gai Rencong sighed softly secretly, and then looked at the light and didn't speak.
Yes, Ma Hanshan's mouth is full of vulgar words, needless to say, he must also be a person who does not read the Four Books and the Five Classics and does not test his fame, but he has invented so many unheard of things... Is it really useless to read those four books and five classics?
"Bao'er, Ma Hanshan stabbed you twice, do you hate him?" After a moment of silence, Gai Rencong suddenly asked.
Gesbo's heart jumped a few times, and he said secretly, Daddy appreciates that bastard very much, but I can't let Daddy know that I have thoughts of revenge. He glanced up at Gai Rencong and said, "Father, it's all my fault, my disrespectful words, and my arrogance is why I annoy him." ”
"Oh, you really don't hate him?" Gai Rencong glanced at Gai Shibao in surprise.
What kind of character does his son have, of course Gai Rencong knows, he has always been the master who must repay him, why did he suddenly change?
"The child does not hate him, but admires him very much, and a person with ability and courage like him, Da Song will never find a second one." Gesebo said with a very respectful look.
"You really don't want revenge?" Gai Rencong asked again in disbelief.
As the saying goes, it is easy to change his character, and he doesn't believe that his son has changed his character like this.
"Does my father want me to take revenge?" Gesebo paused for a moment, and then said sincerely, "Father, I know that I used to be a person who must repay my eyes, and now it is really hard to believe that I suddenly say that I don't hold a grudge against the person who stabbed me twice, but the child suddenly realized that it was not right before... Father, not only do I not hate him, but I want to follow him with him... I think there's a lot I can learn from him. ”
"That's what you really think?" Gai Rencong was happy, he had this intention, and he thought he was going to persuade him, but he didn't expect his son to have this idea.
"Of course it's true, but... But that would delay your studies... Daddy... I... I may not really be a reader ....... "Gesebo looked very entangled.
Wanting to follow Mahanshan is really Gesebo's thoughts, firstly, so that he can get rid of his father's control, and secondly, he can find the best opportunity for revenge by following Mahanshan.
And Gai Rencong's idea is that the science gate is so good, if he lets his son worship in the door, maybe he will succeed. Anyway, he is not the material for reading, and he is famous for his fame? For this son, it is probably just a pursuit that cannot achieve the goal.
"When my son said that he wanted to follow Mahanshan, did he want to worship his science? Would you like to be a teacher? Gai Rencong looked at Gai Shibao and said.
"No, it's okay to follow him, it's okay to join the Science Gate, but it's okay to worship him as a teacher, how can I be the son of a dignified prefect and worship a person like him who has no merit as a teacher?" Gaisebo is not so stupid, he will be tied up after apprenticing, and how can he take revenge after worshipping his master? Do you want to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors? It was something that was reviled by the people of the world, and he didn't do it.
"Well, it seems that my son has thought it through, what are you going to tell him?" Gai Rencong finally smiled, he originally wanted Gai Shibao to follow Ma Hanshan to experience and practice, if he can't read, it's good to learn some skills.
In ancient times, people learned to become literary and martial arts, and the goods and the emperor's family were the greatest ideals in life, and many people struggled towards this goal from the day they were born. Anyone who doesn't have this idea, and who doesn't want to test for fame, will be regarded as not doing their job properly and deviant. Therefore, Gai Rencong actually let his favorite son learn from Ma Hanshan, which is regarded by the world as a miracle skill, and his thinking is really open-minded and very advanced. Although it was not simple for him to let Gesebo follow Mahanshan, it was really remarkable.
"This has to be told by the father, and the father only needs to tell him that he wants his son to follow him through the experience, and I believe he will not refuse." Gesebo said with certainty.
"Why?" Gai Rencong found that he still didn't know his little son, obviously, this kid had thought about it.
"Because, he's stammering with his father." Gai Shibao looked up at Gai Rencong and said, "He is showing goodwill to his father by selling medicines at half price, and he is also showing goodwill to his father by sending these lamps at night." He showed favor because of security needs and business needs. ”
"He must have made a lot of money by producing so many new things in his science gate. Whenever someone makes money, there is no one who is not coveted, he is so smart, of course he knows that he has to find a backer. Suishui County, where Guogai Mountain is located, is under the jurisdiction of Xiangzhou, and Xiangzhou is under the jurisdiction of Xiangfan. He has a friendship with his father, who dares to reach out to the people below? Another reason is to use his father's new identity to make his new lamp quickly increase its popularity, the prefect, and so many officers under the control of Jinghu have used this lamp, and soon this lamp will be transmitted to the palace, and it has been recognized by the palace....... ”
Gai Rencong was really surprised and delighted, he couldn't imagine that his son would understand so much, see so thoroughly, grow up, grow up, and he has always been treated as his child.
Gai Shibo's eloquent words are really amazing, and Gai Rencong is really surprised. In this era, most of his peers are still memorizing the Four Books and Five Classics, and they may not even be able to distinguish between the five grains, but he can see Ma Hanshan so thoroughly, even if Ma Hanshan knows, he will probably be taken aback.
"Son, you have grown up, very good, very happy for your father, go and rest, your father will find a chance to talk to Ma Hanshan." Gai Rencong was relieved, he had long known that this son was not a student and had been worried about his future, and now it seems that it is not so difficult to be famous, and if he learns one or two scientific skills, he can also glorify the family.
Gai Rencong has no prejudice against most corrupt Confucianism, he doesn't think there is anything bad about Gewu, there are no people with strange skills and tricks, where can there be advanced things?
