said that on this day, Wei Xuan was about to go to Tong Yuan's residence to continue practicing after breakfast, but was stopped by a person. The person who came was none other than Wei Xuan's younger brother Wei He, although he was not of the same birth as Wei Xuan and the other three brothers, but because he was the youngest in the family and very smart, he was also very loved by his parents and brothers.

Wei He first stepped forward to salute Wei Xuan: "I've seen the second brother!" ”

Wei Xuan didn't know what this little guy wanted to do, so he replied with a straight face: "Yes He'er, who are you?" ”

Wei He didn't continue to answer in a proper manner, but walked a few steps closer to see that no one was attached to Wei Xuan's ear and said, "Second brother, I heard that you can make refined salt?" ”

Looking at the little brother who was obsessed with money, Wei Xuan was also amused in his heart, this guy was only fifteen years old, and he didn't know which one of the subordinates in the family was talkative, and what he said to his father or what his father and uncle said from his brothers reached his ears.

"In the early years, when I traveled with Master Zheng, I heard people talk about it, but I haven't practiced it yet, why do you want to ask this?"

"Second brother, you are a person who does big things, just leave this kind of small matter to the younger brother. Tell me how to do it, and I'll promise to get it for you soon, and the price will definitely satisfy you. Don't worry, I'll tell the adults and others that I won't take the credit from you. I just want to make some more money for my family. I heard ......"

Looking at his younger brother, who was also smart, Wei Xuan sighed in his heart, he was still annoyed and careful because he was not the eldest son in the family, looking at this person who was not a descendant or the eldest son, although he was favored at home, he must have understood that he was actually the most dispensable in the Wei family. I don't know if it's because I'm smart or my aunt is smart or if it's a master's guidance, this younger brother has shown a talent for business since he was a child, and although he is only fifteen years old, he can really contribute to the family.

Looking at his younger brother Wei Xuan, who was full of anticipation, he didn't want to dampen his enthusiasm, but filtering coarse salt requires a lot of materials, and it is not feasible to determine whether it is feasible until you get to the salt pool. Although Wei Xuan had the heart to hand it over to his younger brother, after all, Wei He was only fifteen years old, and if he didn't go home to his aunt in Yanchi all day, he would definitely have an idea.

After thinking about it, Wei Xuan said: "The salt pond is too far away, this will be said in a while, if you really have the heart, go to the mansion to find a few carpenters with good craftsmanship, I have a new gadget here, not only can it be used in the mansion, but it will definitely be sold at a good price." ”

"Really?" Wei He is young after all, although he didn't get a new way to make salt, but when he heard that his brother had a new gadget here, he suddenly became interested and asked, "Brother, how many people do you need, I'll find it right away." ”

"As long as the carpenter is doing well, three or five people are fine, and more is better. In the future, if we expand large-scale production, we will talk about it when there are buyers. In addition, I asked someone to prepare some wood to carry to my yard. ”

"Good!" Wei Heren promised that he was already a few steps away, his voice was brisk, and his body was very relaxed.

Wei Xuan knew that he couldn't learn marksmanship from Tong Yuan today, so he hurried to Tong Yuan's residence to confess, and when he returned to his small courtyard, Wei He had already arrived with someone, and there were many house slaves who were carrying wood to the yard.

Seeing Wei Xuan coming back, Wei He hurriedly came up and asked, "Second brother, what are you going to do?" ”

Wei Xuan glanced at a few nervous carpenters and smiled: "A few of you come over to see if the furniture I painted on the ground can be made." ”

When several carpenters heard this, they hurriedly gathered together, and Wei Xuan found a dead branch and bent down on the ground to start drawing, while drawing a hundred years to explain. Several carpenters also got orders from Wei He, so they nodded when they understood, and when they didn't understand, they had to ask with a red face.

In fact, the picture drawn by Wei Xuan is not complicated, Wei He on the side basically understood it once Wei preached, and several carpenters quickly figured it out. However, Wei Xuan said that the first set was prepared for his father, so it must be the best in terms of materials and workmanship!

In fact, if there are future generations present, they will know that Wei Xuan is nothing more than watching his father and others kneel on the mat all day long, tired and panicked, so he wants to change the living habits of the world. Of course, since Wei He is willing to deal with it, he naturally has to pack it well and strive to sell it at a fresh price. Wei Xuan's paintings are very common chairs in later generations and the kind of single desks used by primary and secondary school students in the past, which have been slightly changed in size to meet the needs of this era, and are ready to be used to replace the cushions and small tables when meeting guests or large and small courts.

Of course, because the first set was prepared for Wei Su, it naturally included the full set in the study, which included bookcases and desks, as well as serving as a young man. In addition, the two rows of the Wei family's living room need at least a dozen sets of tables and chairs, so Wei He found the best carpenter of the Wei family for at least a few days, Wei Xuan only went to the scene to give some guidance when the first seat was formed, and then handed over the task of supervision to Wei He. He continued to practice marksmanship with Tong Yuan.

Wei He is also a smart man, and when he heard that it would take a lot of time to make these furniture, he hurriedly said that in order not to disturb his brother's studies, he ordered the craftsman to work in his small courtyard. So the house slaves mobilized again, and this was not over, Wei He took it upon himself to recruit craftsmen in Anyi City that day!

Just when the three sons of the Wei family were busy with their own affairs, the imperial court envoy came to Anyi. Xiaohuangmen brought the emperor's holy decree and worshiped Wei Su as the prince! Obviously, the court also knew that someone in Luoyang had instructed Wang Yue to go to Anyi to assassinate Wei Su, and in order to appease the anger of the scholars, the emperor had to issue an order to appease Wei Su. Today's three dukes, whether they are masters or masters, if they don't record Shangshu, they are basically a false title.

People like Wei Su, who have long resigned and are at home, don't even need to go to Luoyang to thank him in person, just bow to the holy decree, and then let the messenger bring back his letter of thanksgiving to receive a name, and the emperor will occasionally reward some items during the New Year's holidays.

Despite this, the Wei family was still quite happy, because Wei Su was fine after all, and the seriously injured Wei Xuan also recovered. To say that the loss is the death of a few house slaves, and then the loss of fame, now Wei Su has been canonized as a Taishi, and his reputation has risen instead of falling. Although Wei Su was old, he would not miss such a good opportunity, so in his letter to the emperor, in addition to criticizing the eunuchs as always, he praised his second son. At the same time, Wei Su did not forget to take this opportunity to write letters to relatives and friends everywhere, firstly to tell them that he was safe, and on the other hand, to build momentum for Wei Xuan!

Wei Su and Wei Xuan's father and son did not forget to thank Tong Yuan and Zuo Ci at this time, which made Zuo Ci nervous. He is a monk, according to later generations, he is pretending to be a god and playing ghosts, but in this era there is still a market, the key is that Zuo Ci is convinced of the content of his divination. A new purple microstar appeared in the land of the Central Plains, he thought it was an illusion at first, but later found that the star was cloudy and inconspicuous, and then he found a bad omen again by divination, so he hurriedly pulled Tong Yuan to Anyi. In the past few days, he has also had time to watch the sky at night, and something more terrifying has happened......

There is a kind of pain in the world, which is to know a big secret, but dare not tell outsiders that you can't share it with outsiders. Zuo Ci is in this mood now. What kept him awake at night was that the result of his calculation was similar to that of many of his peers, that is, the great Han was about to run out, and the great Han was the fire virtue, and the substitute for fire must be earth, and the soil represents the Central Plains. Zuo Ci used to think that the Central Plains must be Luoyang, Yuzhou, Yanzhou and other places, until he found that Ziweixing came to Hedong. Only then did it suddenly dawn on me that Hedong is located in the northeast of the right side of the Yellow River, and belongs to the Captain's Department, isn't it also the Central Plains?

Wei Su turned evil into good fortune, and although Wei Xuan came back from the dead to the back of the dead, although there were reasons for Tong Yuan and Zuo Ci, Zuo Ci himself understood that the Soul Restoration Pill was not the real reason for saving Wei Xuan. What made him persuade Tong Yuan to come to Anyi was also his own divination, which means that Wei Xuan was purely favored by God, and then related to the changes in Zi Weixing and the content of divination, some things are about to come out.

Tong Yuan didn't know these ways of Zuo Ci, and neither did the Wei family! Zuo Ci also knew that the change of dynasty meant killing, he didn't want to get involved, he wanted to go, go far, it was best to go east of Liaodong, but the Wei family was really enthusiastic, and this time Wei Xuan was even more justified after Wei Su was named Taishi. Therefore, although Xiaodao Chang was praised as a guest by the Wei family, he was worried all day long. This fell in the eyes of the Wei family, but they mistakenly thought that the Taoist chief was worried about the illness of the second son, but he was even more polite to him.

On this day, Wei Xuan got up early as usual to go to Tong Yuan's residence, but Wei He came again, and said excitedly: "Second brother, the two chairs built for adults can be completed today, why don't you go and have a look?" ”

Of course, Wei Xuan wanted to take a look, to see how these craftsmen executed, and to see how people of this era reacted to such a fresh thing.

When Wei Xuan came to the construction site of Wei He's furniture production in the small courtyard where Wei He lived, he saw that there were more than a dozen people busy, most of them were carpenters, and there were many semi-finished products in the yard, two of which were very conspicuous, although one large and one small chair were not painted, but Wei Xuan found a familiar feeling.

The two chairs are of the same shape, the four legs are about forty or fifty centimeters high, and the top is a square wooden plank, the large one is about fifty-five centimeters wide, and the small one is about fifty centimeters, and the backrest is the kind that goes straight up and down to the top before flashing a little. There are handrails about 20 centimeters high on both sides. From the front to the rear are two rectangular logs, upper and lower, supported by two small logs with carvings in the middle. The front end of the armrest protrudes about half the size of a fist from the floor of the seat, and it is curved downwards and rolled inward.

The backrest is not a single piece, except for the three-finger-wide side on both sides, and in the middle is a piece of about twenty-five centimeters, on which is carved a descending tiger, and on both sides are two bamboos with bamboo knots that are slightly thicker than the logs under the handrails and divided into three sections. They are engraved with Mei Lan chrysanthemum. The sitting board is also depicted with a pattern, the outer circle is square inside, and in the middle of the small square is a turtle, which is really immovable like a mountain!

Almost all visible places are carved with patterns such as flowers, birds, cordyceps, auspicious clouds, and the workmanship is perfect. Some round holes were dug in some key positions on the front, which were ready to be painted and then buckled with some copper sheets for decoration.
