Chapter 10 All the good things in the world are owned by the emperor

Tea is indispensable after meals, and tea can relieve greasyness.

Tea leaves are also taken out of the subspace and used to entertain distinguished guests.

It's a pity that there are no fresh fruits at this time, and fruit trees have been planted since spring ploughing this year.

Taking out the fruit from the subspace, it's also not appropriate.

Some fruits are not meant to be in this season, and subspace can preserve fresh food for a long time.

Liu Zhang took a sip of the teacup, and the tea in the cup exuded the fragrance of tea.

Xu Mian poured Liu Ling a cup of tea, and the water temperature was just right.

"Lord Weng, please use tea, tea can relieve greasy."

Liu Ling heard Xu Mian say this, and he also took a sip.

The tea was a little bitter in the mouth, and after a while, the tea was sweet in the mouth.

It's amazing, Liu Ling plans to buy some tea and go back to Huainan.

Let her father taste the tea leaves, and give some to the nobles.

Liu Ling couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, as a nobleman, he felt that he had seen too little.

Liu Ling tasted each dish once, and no one could resist the temptation of food.

Honghou Mansion really worked hard to entertain her, and she was very satisfied with this banquet.

"Is the lord satisfied with these dishes?" Liu Zhang asked.

"It's delicious, I'm very satisfied!" Liu Ling ate very satisfied.

Every dish is impeccable, and enjoying the food is a pleasure.

"If you like it, I'll give you a few recipes."

If the ingredients are enough and good enough, it is not impossible to make a state banquet level.

"These dishes must have gone through a lot of thought, I can exchange them for something else."

"The owner doesn't have to be polite, just a recipe, give it to the owner."

Liu Zhang didn't use the recipe to exchange items with Liu Ling, and Liu Ling didn't want to take advantage.

"Thank you! After we've eaten, can you take me to see the meteorite? ”

Liu Ling wanted to see what the meteorite was like and confirm whether there was dark iron in the meteorite.

"Absolutely."

Liu Zhang agreed without hesitation, and would send the two meteorites to Chang'an in a few days.

During this meal, Liu Ling did not drink alcohol, and Liu Ling drank all kinds of fine wines in Chang'an and Huainan.

The maidservants brought the cake, but it was not difficult to make.

This is served as an after-dinner dessert, and the small but delicate cake is placed in front of Liu Ling.

Looking at the dim sum in front of her like a muffin cake made her feel a little special.

The way to eat the muffin cake and the cake is similar, Liu Ling elegantly scooped a piece with a spoon and put it in his mouth.

The cake has a faint sweetness and aromas of milk and eggs.

The cake has a soft and glutinous texture, which is different from the muffin cake you used to eat.

In order to entertain himself, Liu Zhang was really attentive.

"Thank you so much! I don't know what this snack is called? ”

"It's called a cake, and it's steamed with honey, eggs, and milk."

Liu Ling squinted happily and smiled, and the luncheon ended happily.

If Liu Ling is very interested in the cake, you can give her the method of making it.

This cake has a moderate sweetness, so you won't feel tired after eating.

If you have cantaloupe or watermelon, it would be fine, and dragon fruit would also do.

If it is taken out suddenly, it is not easy to explain, but there are these melon and fruit seeds in the subspace.

After all, it's only February, and it's still a little cold.

There are no seasonal fruits this season, but there are some dried fruits.

"If you have time, you can come here in May and June this year, and I will invite you to eat a sweet and juicy melon."

"The Marquis should be talking about melons, and we also have them in Huainan Country. If the Marquis wants to eat, when the time comes, I will ask the Marquis to bring some over. ”

It is only 300 miles from Shouchun in Huainan to Hongguo, and fresh melons and fruits can be sent over in two or three days.

Huainan is rich in all kinds of melons and other fruits, and melons are not valuable.

"The kind of melon I invited Lord Weng to eat is called watermelon, which comes from the Western Regions."

Liu Zhang is right, the watermelon was originally transmitted from the Western Regions.

Since Zhang Qian returned from the Western Regions, he also brought back walnuts, grapes, beans (broad beans), various spices, pomegranates and other specialties.

"There are indeed a lot of good things in the Western Regions."

Liu Ling is full of yearning for the Western Regions, and she also wants to go to the Western Regions.

The road to the Western Regions is full of difficulties and dangers, and the main task at the moment is to help her father complete his plan.

Liu Ling stood up gracefully, and they walked outside the house to put on their shoes.

Xu Zhen and the others began to clean up the dishes, and when they were done.

They can go to another room to eat, and they can also enjoy delicious food.

The two meteorites were placed outside the Honghou Mansion because these two meteorites were too huge.

The meteorite could not pass through the gate of the Honghou Mansion, so it could only be placed outside the courtyard wall and sent people to guard it outside.

One of the meteorites is twenty zhang in diameter and about three zhang high.

Liu Zhang has tested it, and the meteorite with a diameter of five zhang is 3.8 billion years old.

The 20-zhang diameter meteorite is 5.6 billion years old, and both meteorites contain high-quality metals.

The meteorite with a diameter of 20 zhang was detected by a subspace watch, and the time of its fall was about 400,000 years ago.

In other words, more than 400,000 years ago, the land of the Red Marquis Kingdom was a big river or lake.

During the excavation of the meteorite, a lot of shells and snail shells were found.

Liu Ling looked at the two meteorites, one large and one small, like two mountains, one large and one small.

The surface of the meteorite is uneven and has traces of being burned.

"These two meteorites are also too big, I have seen them for the first time, like two mountains, one large and one small."

Liu Ling was extremely shocked in his heart, there must be a large amount of dark iron in this meteorite.

Go around the two meteorites in circles and look closely.

Meteorites contain high-quality metals, all of which are used to make weapons.

If you play against the enemy, you will have a certain advantage.

"These two meteorites are so huge, it must have taken a lot of manpower and material resources to get them."

"From the discovery to the transportation to the Honghou Mansion, it took several days, and more than 100 people worked together."

The meteorite with a diameter of 20 zhang weighed more than 20,000 Han catties, and one catty in the Han Dynasty was 256 grams.

"That's true, I don't know when the largest meteorite fell into the territory of the Red Marquis."

If Liu Zhang hadn't tested it with a subspace watch, he wouldn't have known.

"What are you going to do with it?" Liu Ling looked at Liu Zhang and asked.

"I plan to dedicate these two meteorites to Your Majesty, and there is high-quality dark iron in these meteorites."

Liu Zhang sent someone to inform Taishou a few days ago, and yesterday Taishou sent someone to deliver a letter.

Three days later, the Taishou Society sent someone to load the meteorite into the car and send it to Chang'an.

"You're right, such a huge meteorite. In addition to dedicating it to His Majesty, it is a trouble to keep it for yourself after all. ”

Good things often bring great disasters to themselves, and Liu Ling feels regretful.

Unable to buy these two meteorites, Liu Ling reached out and stroked the appearance of the meteorite.

The meteorite fell from the sky, and the surface of the meteorite had serious burn marks.

Could it be that there is a huge sea of fire outside the sky, Liu Ling looked up at the sky.

The sky is blue, the sky is full of white clouds, are those fires blue?

No wonder it was so hot every summer, and Liu Ling thought that they might be trapped in a cage.

"I've seen about the fall of meteorites from bamboo slips, and the meteorites that fell are not big. It's also the first time I've seen such a big meteorite, what do you think it's like outside the sky? ”

Liu Ling is full of curiosity about the outside world, and it is impossible for her to leave the land under her feet in her life.

"I don't know, you might as well ask Tai Shiling, he knows more than us."

Liu Zhang is not unaware, and he also knows that talking about and studying astronomy is a taboo in the imperial court.

In the feudal era, it was strictly forbidden for the people to study astronomy.

The emperors of the feudal era were most afraid that someone would use astronomy to make trouble.

Liu Ling just asked casually, studying astronomy is a matter for Taishi Ling.

In addition to recording history and studying astronomy, Taishi Ling also edited the calendar.

"I've only read some Confucian classics, about things outside the sky. I don't know much, but Tai Shiling knows a lot about this. ”

"Also, I'm asking you this, it's really hard for you."

Liu Ling continued to look at the meteorite, really hoping to get his hands on these two meteorites.

I also built some high-quality weapons as soon as possible, and I heard that swords and other weapons made of Xuantie were made.

She could sharpen iron like clay, and her father had a sword made of dark iron.

It was effortless to cut down other weapons, and Xuantian was indeed magical.

"The dark iron in these two meteorites, the dark iron is hard to find."

Liu Ling really didn't want these two meteorites to be obtained by Liu Che, which was a little detrimental to her father's plan.

"It's no exaggeration to say that this is a good thing in the world. It belonged to His Majesty, and we found out. Naturally, I want to dedicate it to Your Majesty, don't you say? ”

Liu Ling nodded when he heard this, and also agreed with Liu Zhang's statement.

If it is not dedicated to the emperor, some people around the emperor will slander.

If the emperor is unhappy, he will be dismissed from office, or he will worry about his life.

Since ancient times, the emperor's heart is difficult to guess, and Liu Zhang is not unclear.

For example, the meteorite can be big or small, mainly depending on the emperor's attitude.

It was quite troublesome for the subjects, and the unwritten rule was that good things must be offered to the monarch.

All the good things in the world are owned by the emperor, and many people share the same idea.

This is the duty and obligation of a subject, and the emperor will certainly reward the one who offers the treasure.

There is nothing wrong with Liu Zhang doing this, and it can also save unnecessary trouble.
