After hearing this, Zheng Shanxing nodded deeply in agreement. Perhaps he had a deeper feeling about this issue than Yuan Mudan, because he had been doing business in this area and said: "We have been studying the beauty of freedom about textile machines, but this kind of thing cannot be rushed. It is good to do it, but it cannot be forced."

Han Yi smiled and said, "Young Master Zheng, this is the difference between you and Mudan!"

Zheng Shanxing looked at Han Yi with a confused look on his face.

Han Yi said: "You must keep pace with the times when doing business. In the past, there was no Sixth Academy of the Sage, so of course you have to do everything yourself. Now with Sixth Academy of the Sage, you have an extra way out. Whoever ignores Sixth Academy of the Sage will definitely be the most regrettable thing in his life."

After hearing this, Zheng Shanxing looked at Yuan Mudan.

Yuan Mudan nodded slightly and said, "I do hope that the Sixth Academy of Sages can provide us with technical help on the textile machine."

Han Yi smiled and said, "So you want to take Mr. Zheng to donate money to the Sixth Academy of the Sage?"

Yuan Mudan smiled and nodded, saying, "I think the beauty of freedom of this money should be shared by part of it, and should not be borne by our Yuan family."

The Yuan family is in this style. In terms of money, it is straightforward. If you should give it, you will give it. You can rest assured and there is no politeness to say. As the saying goes, a gentleman's friendship is as light as water. Since it comes to money, why not be more direct, it is actually very good.

Zheng Shanxing said, "Sister Mudan is right, I am willing to pay the money."

Both of them looked at Han Yi again.

Han Yi shrugged and said, "I don't mind you donating money to the Sixth Academy of the Sage. Uh, if you are anxious, you can donate some textile tools and raw materials to the Sixth Academy of the Sage."

Na Yuan Mudan is also a decisive person. Since Han Yi made a request, she would send some tools and raw materials to the Sixth Academy of the Sage in the afternoon. Why did she think this kind of thing delay for a while?

Luoyang, Yongning County.

"Han Yi really underestimated us. It's really outrageous to arrange this easiest task for me."

Asuna Puluo sat in the room, bent his right knee and stepped on the chair, looking extremely unhappy.

Qi Bi Ming snorted: "Not it? Let's come to Luoyang to escort food and grass back to Chang'an. If this is not done, then we can't become pigs."

Lee Jingye said: "So there is no reason why we don't get first."

Ashin's servant Luo snorted: "It's hard for us not to get the first place!"

Their class is the happiest. They were arranged to go to Luoyang, the road between Luoyang and Chang'an, which was really a smooth road. Because the emperor often traveled between the two capitals, this road must be repaired again and again, and it must be the best. However, they seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Han Yi's arrangement. It was too simple and had no meaning.

While speaking, I suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"Come in!"

Several people sat down immediately.

A short and fat middle-aged man with two small beards walked in. He bowed his hand first and then said, "Young masters, this food and grass have been delivered. I wonder when the young masters plan to set off?"

Li Jingye made a quick decision and said, "Now."

Two hours later, Li Jingye and the others escorted the food to leave Yongning County.

The short and fat middle-aged man muttered to himself while watching Li Jingye and the others' departure: "Then Shangshu Han is really like the rumor, and he has a clever idea!"

Compared with them, Qin Qiao, Qie Ziguang, Cheng Boxian and others who went to Huan County were not so lucky.

"What-what? No carriage?"

Cheng Boxian bulged the leopard eyes of the family and glared at the Caohe official standing in front of him.

After all, he didn't take it seriously after Duke Lu, a small canal transport official.

The canal transport official cried and said, "Oh! Dear young men, I'm really sorry. We had already prepared it, but a letter from Qingzhou came to ask our county to transport a batch of supplies, and we must deliver them on the eve of the New Year. Our county magistrate has no choice. You are just an exercise, but it's really a business there. He can only collect all the carriages and donkey carts and deliver the supplies to the Qingzhou government office."

Qin Qiao frowned and said, "There is no horse-drawn carriage or donkey carriage. How can we transport the food and grass back to Chang'an!"

"There are wooden carts, but there are no horses and no donkeys."

"What nonsense are you talking about? No horse or no donkey, you won't let us push back to Chang'an."

"No, no, no, of course, the villain doesn't mean that. Can you wait a few more days? The villain has sent someone to find it?"

Qi Ziguang looked at the rest of his friends, "What do you think you should do?"

"If we can get enough horses in a few days, we should be able to rush back to Chang'an in time."

"Even if it's a few days late, it's okay. If there is a reason for this, we can't blame us."

"Then--then let's wait a few days."

On the road from Pinggao County to Chang'an, Duan Huaijian, Duan Huaixu and his friends escorted food and grass and walked leisurely to Chang'an.

Suddenly, a convoy came towards him. Duan Huaijian immediately raised his hand and told everyone to adjust the formation. After all, the road in ancient times was so wide.

"Oh, this year, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, I can even experience landslides when I deliver goods. I really don't know which god I offended and want to deal with me like this."

"Master, please be calm. Isn't there a day on this side? Can you go to Chang'an?"

"I have walked the path, but there is a mass grave next to it. I'm not doing anything this year. You asked me to go there. Do I have a life. Alas, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and I'm not in a hurry anyway, so I'll send it to you later. I really hope it will be free next year."

"Please stay, please."

Duan Huaijian suddenly shouted.

The merchant saw Duan Huaijian riding on the horse, wise and self-righteous, and hurriedly said, "I don't know what the official has to do?"

Duan Huaijian asked, "Are you businessmen from Chang'an?"

The merchant said, "The villain is a merchant from Pinggao County."

Duan Huaijian asked again: "Then are you going back to Pinggao County?"

"No, uh yes."

"What's not, yes."

"Sorry, sorry, that's right. The villain originally wanted to transport some goods to Chang'an, but when he arrived at Pinggangling, thirty miles ahead, he encountered a landslide and blocked the road. We had to return the same way."

Duan Huaixun said: "We have been in a few days ago, this road is very smooth."

"It was blocked two days ago."

"Brother, what should I do?" Duan Huaixu asked Duan Huaijian.

Duan Huaijian just heard their conversation and asked, "Is there still a way to Chang'an here?"

"When the official came, did you see the mass grave?"

"Just ahead, we were passing by there just now."

"There is a small path to Chang'an to the south of the mass grave, but the mass grave is close to it, and the merchants are afraid of bad luck, so they rarely go there."

"Isn't it just a mass grave? What a terrible thing, I don't believe it anymore. Since you are on the same road, you can take us there."

“Yes, yes, yes.”

Zhushan County.

"Mr. Qin County, we were ordered to come here to escort food and grass, but what is the reason for you to push and hold back?"

Yuan Jian stood in the hall of the county government, looking at the county magistrate sitting in the hall with expressionless face.

The Qin County Magistrate took a sip of tea without any haste, then put down the teacup, and said, "This Han Shangshu is in the capital. But I don't know that the suffering of my small county is coming. The year is approaching, and there are so many things. Where can I find so many people and so many carriages to help you do this exercise. You either wait a little longer. After I finish my work here, I will prepare for you."

Yuan Jian turned his head and communicated with Yuan Kang and others with eyes.

night.

"Several Master Yuan, what are you doing? Even if I sleep, you have to follow me?"

"Sorry! We just hope to help the Qin County Magistrate resolve the official duties of Gui County earlier, so that the Qin County Magistrate can help us prepare food and grass as soon as possible."

"You-you are too bullying. Come on! Come on!"

"I am in a humble position."

"Please invite a few young masters of Yuan to me."

"Several young masters of Yuan, please."

"Either you kill us, or you don't waste your saliva here." Yuan Kang leaned against the window of Qin County Magistrate, holding a big knife in his hands, and closing his eyes slightly.

Just kidding, who dares to kill them!

Chang'an.

In a house in the Tao family workshop, Tao clay and two sons, as well as the two chief designers of their workshop, stood in the house, staring blankly at a hemp rope. One end of the hemp rope was connected to a characteristic water tank placed at a high place, while the other end was pulled by a person with his hands.

"Are you ready to witness this historic moment?"

Han Yi held the hemp rope with one hand and smiled at the Tao and the others.

Taotu and the others nodded at the same time, but they all looked confused.

Han Yi pulled the hemp rope.

I heard a rumbling sound, and then a thud, and I saw a maroon-red pottery bucket suddenly rushing out of the sludge in the bucket, and there was a sound of water coming in the water tank.

Tao Tu and the others immediately took a breath of air conditioning, their eyes wide open.

This is actually the toilet just developed, and the main equipment is all designed by clay and the others, but they don’t know how to use this thing, so they are very surprised to see what they do.

Han Yi also smiled happily, squatted down again, touched the first toilet in the world, knocked it a few times, and the more he looked, the more he became very satisfied.

Although this was only made by craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty, the quality of this toilet is much stronger than that of those inferior toilets in later generations. Although the technology and raw materials in these days are far inferior to those in later generations, today's craftsmen have the spirit of craftsmanship and will never be perfunctory.

This is because many craftsmen's craftsmanship are inherited by the ancestral craftsmanship. If they want to use the ancestral craftsmanship to make inferior products, wouldn't that be a shame to their ancestors? For the ancients, it was simply a death sentence. In fact, many traditional craftsmen in later generations were also the same. What they took out must be good and the price was very expensive.

"Okay, okay!"

Han Yi smiled happily, put one hand on the clay shoulder and smiled: "Let's talk."
