"One sulfur..."

"Dinitrous..."

"Three charcoal... Hey, it's a pity that there is no white sugar in this era! Huo Guang muttered to himself, fiddling with the bronze mirror in his hand, ready to make fire to the sun.

This is the most common way to make fire in the Qin and Han dynasties, using gold and tin as a mirror to make a concave surface, and then using flammable materials such as mugwort and velvet to ignite and burn at the heat convergence point.

Although this way of making fire is simple, it has one of the biggest drawbacks, that is, it is not good on cloudy days.

So!

During this period, people would "have a golden flint on the left and a wooden flint on the inside", as long as there is a sun, they will use the golden flint to make fire, and if there is no sun, they will use the wooden flint to make fire.

Huo Guang is now using Jin Sui to make fire.

Of course.

Instead of directly igniting homemade inferior gunpowder, he first caused spontaneous combustion of easily ignited objects such as mugwort and velvet, and then went to light dry firewood, which he used to ignite the gunpowder.

"Whether you can develop in the future depends on you!" After Huo Guang got the fire, he approached the lit firewood close to the homemade gunpowder with a little apprehension.

But before he could light it for verification, a basin of cold water was poured down.

That's right!

It's really a basin of cold water.

Even the gunpowder that he had worked hard for several days to make was doused like this. Huo Guang immediately looked up angrily and found that it was the cowardly and somewhat lascivious father of the original owner of this body.

Immediately!

Huo Guang got angry, got up and said a little childishly: "Oh, what are you doing!" ”

"What do you say I'm doing? Let you raise pigs well, you little rabbit cub came to play with fire, I don't know how ruthless water and fire are! Huo Zhongru angrily knocked on Huo Guang's head with a wooden basin.

The wooden basin of this period is not as good as the plastic basin of the later period, and it hurts to die if you knock it.

Huo Guang suddenly bared his teeth in pain, and said at the same time: "Is raising pigs what my seven-foot man does?" If you have the ability, go and help recommend your son and me, and become an official in the court, then our Huo family will directly rise to prominence, and have used this hard life? ”

In this era, being an official is to be recommended, not to be examined.

Ordinary people don't even have the qualifications to read and write, let alone become officials in the court. Those who can have the qualifications for recommendation are all the families of the three princes and nine kings in the court.

Many people like to say that they are from a poor family.

As a matter of fact.

In ancient times, Hanmen did not refer to the uncivilized common people.

When Huo Zhongru heard this, he immediately said angrily: "What are you daydreaming about, your father and I are a little official in Pingyang County, and it would be good to be able to support your mother and you." If I had the ability to recommend, I would have recommended myself a long time ago, and it would be your turn? ”

Alas?

What does it mean that it is his turn? Feeling like he's not his son!

Huh...

It doesn't seem to be, strictly speaking, the original owner of this body is.

Thinking of this, Huo Guang couldn't help but sigh, he couldn't count on his father Jackie Chan. If you want to soar in the future, you can only rely on yourself.

Huo Zhongru saw that his son didn't speak, so he continued: "Okay, don't say anything. Hedong Taishou sent someone to invite me to his party, for my father to go out, you stay at home, don't play with fire! ”

"Oh!" Huo Guang snorted lightly, not paying much attention.

Nitrate is hard to collect, okay!

Just this bit of gunpowder was doused by my father with a basin of water, and he played with wool.

Wrong!

"What is play, I call it entrepreneurship!" Huo Guang rolled his eyes and looked helplessly at Huo Zhongru, who had already walked away.

This old man!

Worse than useless.

Even if you are poor and white, you are still rotten. The character is quite cowardly.,It's very cowardly.,And at the same time a little.。 But it's normal to be lustful, men are all lustful. If it weren't for the color, humanity would have been extinct long ago.

"Hey!"

Huo Guang sighed and took the bronze mirror that Jin Sui used to make fire.

The original owner's mother was making clothes, and when she saw him come in, she said, "Guang'er, you have been murdered by your father again!" ”

"Oh."

Huo Guang snorted lightly, counting as a response.

At this time, the mother of the original owner shouted: "Guang'er, go, help me get a few pieces of linen." ”

"Good!" Huo Guang nodded lightly.

Although the Han Dynasty already had such a good thing as silk and satin, it is a pity that the cheap father of the original owner, Huo Zhongru, is just a Pingyang official, no different from ordinary people.

What was the material of the clothes worn by ordinary people during this period?

It is nothing more than linen made of ramie, or kudzu cloth twisted from kudzu vine fibers, etc., and finally the most primitive form of fur clothes made of animal fur.

Of course, silk fabrics are also available.

Pity!

Clothing of this material can obviously only appear in the upper strata of society.

After Huo Guang took a few pieces of linen cloth and handed them to his mother, he walked out. At this time, the mother hurriedly asked, "Guang'er, what are you going out to do again?" ”

"Squatting... Uh, go to the toilet! Huo Guang said lightly.

Toileting is an ancient saying about going to the toilet and squatting in the pit, for example, Sima Qian wrote "sit for a moment, Pei Gong up to go to the toilet" and other words when describing the Hongmen banquet.

A puff of smoke.

Huo Guang had already come to the toilet and started his normal physiological activities. After going to the toilet, he picked up the toilet chip next to him, that is, the polished bamboo chip, frowned, and began to wipe it with a painful face.

"Ah, I can't stand it, this ancient life is really terrible!"

"In the summer, if there is no air conditioning, I have to wipe my ass with bamboo chips when I go to the toilet, and I don't even have toilet paper."

"I can't live this day."

The worst thing is that this toilet chip has to be reused and cannot be thrown away. After Huo Guang runs out, he has to take this bamboo piece to wash it, otherwise he won't have to use it later.

Speechless...

Huo Guang took the toilet chip to the stream to wash with a little disgust, and suddenly he was stunned, as if he had thought of something.

Toilet chips?

Toilet paper?

No, although the Han Dynasty didn't have this thing, Lao Tzu could make it himself...

You can get all the gunpowder, but you're afraid you won't be able to get toilet paper?

Hehe!

Especially for things like gunpowder, there may not be a market for them when they are made, but toilet paper is a best-selling thing.

Thinking of this, Huo Guang's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he directly threw off the toilet chip in his hand, and shouted happily: "I'm going to be developed, hahaha, mother, don't weave linen, I thought of a good thing to make a fortune!" ”

“......”

I don't know if Huo Guangfa is not developed, but Huo Zhongru, the cheap father of the original owner of his body, is really developed.

Evening.

Huo Zhongru came back with a red face, and it was Hedong Taishou who personally sent him back. Behind him, there were four or five slaves and maids, all of whom were given to Huo Zhongru.

Besides.

Huo Zhongru, who was poor and white, also had a new field and house.

This is not!

As soon as the waist bag is bulging, there is a man's confidence. After coming back, without saying a word, he instigated his wife and children to move to a new house.

Could it be that these are all sent by Hedong Taishou?

Of course not!

It's just that no matter how Huo Guang asked Huo Zhongru, this cheap dad didn't say a word. This couldn't help but make Huo Guang curious, looking at Huo Zhongru with a drunken body, thinking that he would not lose himself to a rich woman, right?

After all.

Although the father is old, his appearance is still online, otherwise he would not have given birth to Huo Guang, the original owner, is a talent.

While Huo Guang was thinking wildly, this cheap daddy Huo Zhongru suddenly touched his stomach, looking painful, and seemed to be a little uncomfortable.

And then.

Without saying a word, he rushed straight into the toilet.

It should be that I ate too much wine and meat at noon, and I had a stomach upset.

It's just that...

After a while, Huo Zhongru's shout sounded in the latrine: "Hey, Guang'er, where is the toilet chip placed here?" ”
