Chapter 47: A Girl's Thoughts (2)
Chen snorted: "What can't be humane - it's a bunch of long-tongued women chewing their tongues." Our eldest girl went over to help the Guo family clean and laundry every day, and even Guo Ge'er's underwear was washed by her, she knew that Guo Ge'er was in good health. As she spoke, she leaned into Li Ruhai's ear and whispered: "Brother Guo'er is a young man, he must have dreamed of those affairs a few days ago, and accidentally got some dirt on his pants, and when the girl helped him do his laundry, he didn't know what it was, so he came to ask me, and I passed it in a few words." ”
Li Ruhai snorted and muttered, "The female is not staying, and watch it." ”
Guo Dalu didn't know that he accidentally had a dream that was inadvertently known by Li Ruhai's family, he was carving the method of accumulation on wax paper, in fact, this engraving of wax paper is a very simple thing, but Brother Hao and others were afraid of damaging the wax paper, so they didn't dare to try it, so they had to let Guo Dalu engrave it himself.
Guo Dalu used the Song style to engrave the method of accumulation of fertilizer on the wax paper one by one, and Zhou Carpenter and Li Dayan watched from the side, glancing at each other, because they found that Guo Dalu used a new kind of calligraphy - when he used a brush to write the method of accumulation of fertilizer on the outer wall of the toilet in the market, the font used was slightly cursory, but now he writes on wax paper with an iron pen, but the stroke is extremely solemn, and the font looks extremely pleasing to the eye.
Carpenter Zhou and Li Dayan are not serious readers, but they know that this calligraphy is extremely difficult, how many people are poor all their lives, and they are immersed in one kind of calligraphy, but Guo Dalu, a teenager, can actually write two calligraphy fonts!
How many secrets are still hidden in his body?!
Guo Dalu handed the carved wax paper to Carpenter Zhou: "Uncle Zhou, please use a stronger piece of wood to make a frame for this wax paper." ”
Carpenter Zhou smiled: "It's a gesture." ”
As he spoke, he stepped aside, and with a clinking of bells, he quickly made a hardwood frame and lined it with wax paper.
Guo Dalu instructed Carpenter Zhou to make a drum out of felt.
Guo Dalu rolled the roller in the ink that the stupid big man unintentionally matched, and then put the wax paper wooden frame on the straw paper that had been mated, lightly lifted the roller, and pressed and rolled it on the wax paper a little harder, and when he lifted the wax paper wooden frame, the grass paper below had already shown a clear printing font.
Carpenter Zhou trembled and drafted paper with both hands: "This is printed? This is so convenient! Well, the words are also very clear." ”
Li Dayan leaned next to him and said: "This straw paper is really rough, if you can make a good snowflake paper, this word can be even better, now there are still some spots on this straw paper, this can't be ink leakage, right?"
What's going on?
Guo Dalu poked his head over to take a look: "Ink leakage? Impossible, this wax paper was engraved by my own hand, and it won't leak ink." ”
Li Dayan stretched out his hand and pointed: "Look, these spots, isn't it ink leakage?"
Guo Dalu looked at the spot that Li Dayan was pointing at, and sighed: "Oops, I accidentally wrote the punctuation marks on it!"
The spots that Li Dayan refers to are punctuation marks such as commas and periods.
When Guo Dalu wrote the method of accumulation of fertilizer in public on the toilet of the market, he did not use punctuation marks because he used a brush, but just now he used an iron pen to engrave words on wax paper, and his long-term writing habits made him unconsciously use punctuation marks.
Li Dayan and Carpenter Zhou asked in unison, "Punctuation? What is this?"
Guo Dalu shrugged his shoulders: "Punctuation marks are used to read sentences in articles, that, I played badly when I was a child, I don't like to read, the old man in the master mountain invented this punctuation mark in order to encourage me to read, so that I can read and read." "-Yes, it's on the old man in the mountains again.
Guo Dalu casually wrote out several commonly used punctuation marks such as periods, commas, colons, quotation marks, question marks, etc., and after Li Dayan and Zhou Carpenter read it, after a little pondering, they understood that this punctuation mark is a very useful and convenient thing, especially for beginners.
Carpenter Zhou patted his head: "Brother Guo, your master is really amazing in the mountains, I heard that this sentence is extremely difficult to read, the children in the city have just met some old ancient texts, they can't read it well, and some people even quarrel and quarrel about it, if you have this punctuation mark, any article, you can understand it at a glance." ”
Li Dayan nodded again and again: "That's right, this punctuation mark is even more useful in the army, although the soldiers in the army who give orders, although they know a few words, but when they encounter a longer sentence, they are also confused. If this punctuation mark can be used in the army, the credit is better than thousands of troops!"
Carpenter Zhou patted Li Da's eyes: "Brother Li, what's the use of talking about this now? You and I are no longer in the army now, just ordinary people, and these military affairs have nothing to do with us for a long time." ”
Guo Dalu said with a smile: "What kind of military affairs, just a few small symbols, convenient for everyone to read, Uncle Zhou, Uncle Li, you want to use it casually, you want to teach people to teach it casually, this is not a complicated and difficult thing to read, you will be able to teach it, and you will understand it as soon as you learn it." ”
Carpenter Zhou was accustomed to Guo Dalu casually passing on all kinds of secret techniques, and knew that he was telling the truth, so he said unceremoniously: "Okay, I'll make another batch of straw paper in a few days, and use it to print punctuation marks and use methods, and simply distribute them everywhere in the market together with the manure method." ”
Guo Dalu laughed and said: "This is cheap, let's sell one and get one free, so that his name will be known to the world." A method of accumulation, a punctuation mark, so that the yellow pen paste style has the name of Zhinong Zhishu, and it is difficult not to be promoted. ”
Li Dayan asked cautiously: "Brother Guo, why did you give all of your fame to the yellow pen sticker? If it is counted on your own body and reported to the government, you can get some praise, and maybe you can even be a petty official." ”
Guo Dalu said: "These skills of mine are all taught by the old man in the mountains, how can I take them as my own, isn't this the merit of greedy heaven for myself? My master The old man in the mountains is not the kind of layman who is greedy for small profits, I spread these methods all over the world, which is beneficial to the people, and it is the greatest reward for his old man." ”
Guo Dalu looked upright, in fact, he muttered in his heart - I would like to be a petty official in the yamen, but I, a guy of unknown origin, don't even know what the current emperor's surname is, and it doesn't take a few days to be an official and have to be exposed.
Guo Dalu was putting on an awe-inspiring posture for the country and the people, the door creaked, and Brother Hao hurriedly ran in, holding a crockpot in his hand: "Brother Guo, Brother Guo, it's out! The ink is out! This time, the content and proportion of the formula are all recorded clearly, and we have matched it several times, and it has been successful!"
Guo Dalu took the ink jar that exuded the fragrance of oil: "Then what are you waiting for! Start work, printing!"
That night, the children in the village fought at night, printed overnight, and printed thousands of copies of the fertilizer accumulation method, if the ink was not used up, they could print more, and finally Guo Dalu saw that they were all red like rabbits, and drove them home to sleep.
Brother Hao returned to his house with an excited face, and was about to push the door in, the door opened gently, and the big girl was waiting at the door with her clothes on: "You are finally back, tossing so late, are you hungry, I will give you a hot bowl of porridge." ”
Brother Hao saw that his sister hadn't slept so late in order to wait for him to come home, and he felt a little guilty, so he hurriedly said softly: "I'm not hungry, I came back from eating supper at Brother Guo's house, sister, don't be busy, so as not to wake everyone up." ”
The eldest girl yawned, and she was really tired: "Okay, I'm going to sleep, the second girl is kicking the quilt again, I'm worried that she will catch a cold." ”
Brother Hao suddenly remembered something: "Sister, wait a minute." He took out something from his arms and stuffed it into the girl's hand: "Sister, this is what Brother Guo asked me to bring you, saying that this is called chocolate, and it is even more delicious than toffee." He said that in the future, don't bring toffee to the market to sell, with him, he will definitely make our life in Houlong Village better and better in the future. ”
The eldest girl didn't know how she got back to the wing, so she stuffed the quilt for the second and third girls, and then got into her own quilt, and after a long stay, she took out a small paper bag in her arms.
On the dim and flickering oil lamp, the girl opened the paper bag, and found that the paper inside was very magical, the color was like metal, it was cold to the touch, hard and hard, but it was extremely thin, I don't know what it was made of, opened the paper like a golden leaf, revealing a black piece of things inside, which was divided into a grid and a grid, and gently put it on the nose to smell, there was a faint fragrance.
The big girl knows that this is what Brother Hao called "chocolate", but she really can't see where this thing is, what can it be, and why does it bring the word "force", can it be said that eating this thing can make manpower increase out of thin air, like a strong pill?
But she quickly laughed, this thing was brought by Brother Guo to Brother Hao, how could it be a strong pill in the hands of an artist who went to the rivers and lakes, this must be delicious, and it is better than toffee.
The big girl thought about it, and finally couldn't resist the temptation - after all, she is only a child in her teens, if she changes to the 21st century, and still wears a red scarf to go to middle school- the big girl's fingers are slightly forced, and there is a soft sound, and a small grid is broken off by her, the fragrance is stronger, and the big girl picks up a broken "chocolate" and takes it into her mouth.
Immediately, a slight bitterness dissolved in her mouth, and the girl just frowned, and her mouth immediately surged with an extremely sweet, fragrant, and extremely strong taste, which was countless times sweeter than the old honey she had ever eaten!
It's so delicious!
