Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 493 New Home
Liang Xiao was very satisfied as he walked in the newly completed new house.

The new house with glazed windows is very well lit, and the house is bright. You can read and write normally without turning on the lights.

Of course, the price is not cheap.Colored glaze is a rare item. Even if Huainan has achieved mass production, it is still a valuable item. A local tyrant like Liang Xiao who uses colored glaze as a window is unique in the world.

Even the king of Huainan who provided the glazed pieces did not have such a luxury.

"Junhou, I'm worried that these glazes will be stolen." Guan Fu tugged at his beard, his eyes flickering.

"The most likely thief is probably you Guan Xiaowei?"

Guan Fu laughed.It had to be said that although he hadn't reached the point where he wanted to steal it, he also felt that Liang Xiao was too extravagant when he saw the shiny glazed pieces.Where is this glazed piece, it is simply a piece of glittering gold.

"What do you think?" Liang Xiao turned around and asked Han.

Han said that he was also a little dumbfounded.He had seen quite a few rich people in Chang'an, but he had never seen anyone using colored glaze to stick windows.Of course Liuli is not as valuable as jade, but I have never seen anyone put jade on the window.When the princes and kings died, the golden jade clothes could barely be compared.

"it is good."

"Do you think someone would steal it?"

"Uh..." Han said after thinking for a while, then nodded seriously. "I think Lieutenant Guan is right. It's very possible. As the saying goes, money touches people's hearts, and poor people come out of poor mountains and rivers. If a gentleman puts such a precious thing as colored glaze on the window, isn't it a thief?"

"That's right." Liang Xiao thought for a moment. "It seems that I was negligent. How about this? From now on, you will transfer back and give you fifty people to be responsible for the safety of this place, especially the colored glaze here, so that no one will steal it."

"I?"

"You won't refuse such an important task to you, right?" Liang Xiao said with a smile: "You came along, didn't you just want to learn something? Now I'll give you a chance, and you'll be here every day. , wouldn't it be better?"

Han was speechless.Liang Xiao made his words so clear that even if he wanted to refute, he couldn't refute.However, just as Liang Xiao said, he didn't come here for Liang Xiaomao, but to steal a teacher and learn more from Liang Xiao.This opportunity is indeed good.

"Okay, since the Lord trusts me, I'd rather be respectful than obedient."

"Boy, work hard." Liang Xiao patted Han Shuo on the shoulder in an old-fashioned way. "Although I don't like you, I like you."

Han said it was embarrassing, and he didn't know whether to thank Liang Xiao or scold Liang Xiao.To speak so bluntly, doesn't it mean that he is declared to be a spy in public?How can I mess around in the future.

Liang Xiao asked Han to say that he should guard the Abode, and it was indeed embarrassing for him.However, the main purpose is to trap Han Shuo and prevent him from running around.

Shipbuilding in Yuzhang, on the one hand, was to prepare warships for the emperor's northern and southern expeditions, and on the other hand, it was also to leave a way out for himself.If you want to go out to sea, you must have a good ship, and this ship must have unique features to ensure certain advantages when facing the navy sent by the emperor.

Of course he didn't want this secret to reach the emperor's ears through Han Shuo's mouth.Not even letting him know about it.

The less people know about this secret, the better.

The expansion project of Yuzhang Shipyard was still in the planning stage. Liang Xiao seized the time and began to explain the basics of mathematics and science to Huainan diners in the abode—the difficulty was equivalent to that of a junior high school course, and he couldn't explain it if it was too advanced.At the same time, he also invited the craftsmen from Yuzhang Shipyard to listen together, and recruited some smart young people from their children as a reserve force.

In addition to explaining the basics of mathematics, Liang Xiao also discussed with the craftsmen and decided to introduce the ship model manufacturing process.

The shipbuilding industry in the Han Dynasty was relatively developed, especially in the south of the Yangtze River where the waterways are crisscrossed, shipbuilding is very common.It is not uncommon to make ship models, which are very common in Ming ware.However, making ship models specifically for shipbuilding is a new thing.

Before that, building a small boat was based on experience, and building a large boat was based on the accumulated experience of the craftsman for many years.Those dimensions are kept in the minds of the craftsmen, and there is no clear data at all.

Liang Xiao proposed to make a strictly scaled-down ship model as a preparation before shipbuilding, which was questioned by many people.Some people think this is superfluous, while others are worried about losing their jobs.With the ship model, anyone can build a ship according to the sample. What will the craftsmen make for food in the future?
Craftsmen in the Han Dynasty were lowly in business, and their status was still lower than that of farmers, and many of them were even official slaves without personal freedom.Farmers still have land, but what they have is the technology in their hands and the experience in their minds.Without these experiences, they are pure drudgery.

In order to eliminate the worries of these people, Liang Xiao discussed with them repeatedly, and finally decided to write to the imperial court, requesting that these craftsmen be included in the system of workers and officials, especially experienced craftsmen, the imperial court will issue salaries, which can be as high as a thousand stones and low. It can also guarantee the basic life.

This condition successfully won the support of the craftsmen.The building order is only six hundred shi, and a craftsman can enjoy a salary of a thousand shi, which is higher than the building order. This is something they dare not even think about.

After reaching a consensus, Liang Xiao started the technical preparations before building the ship in the Abode.

This job is also a brand new content for him, and it takes a lot of time to get familiar with it.However, several years of archery practice have given him enough patience, and his solid foundation in mathematics and physics has allowed him to comprehend faster than ordinary people, and he can draw inferences from one instance, and the shipbuilding theory of this era is not systematic, and he needs to be integrated and coordinated .

Just like when he practiced archery back then, Liang Xiao put in [-]% of his enthusiasm and passion.

In mid-November, under the protection of more than a dozen knights, Yue Yue and the child rushed to Yuzhang, accompanied by two thousand catties of gold and a letter from Liu Ling.

After reading the letter, Liang Xiao smiled wryly and shook his head.The emperor sent Han Yan to Yuzhang, probably not as simple as inspecting Yuzhang Shipyard.Liu Ling's guess was very likely to be right, but she couldn't find a way to solve it.

No matter what he said, the words that reached the emperor's ears may have another meaning.Although the crime of defamation has not yet entered the stage of history, it is an eternal problem that cannot be cured.How can the emperor believe that he has no complaints?

He can't do it.People's hearts are separated from the belly, even if he digs out his heart and shows it to the emperor, the emperor may not believe it.Besides, he's not that pushy.

Trust is mutual.You don't trust me, so why should I work so hard to win your trust.

Liang Xiao put away Liu Ling's letter, picked up the infant child, held it in front of him, and glanced at it.

The little guy was sleeping soundly, his little mouth was clicked, and his two little hands were curled up on his chest.

"How is it? Does it look good?" Yue Yue leaned over, hugged Liang Xiao's shoulders, and said with a chuckle, a strong milky scent poured into Liang Xiao's nose.

"It's pretty." Liang Xiao was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear. "Is my mother overjoyed?"

"Well. I think, after having this child, my mother looks at me differently."

"Hahaha..." Liang Xiao moved his face closer and kissed the moon disc-like face. "Mother has been thinking about a grandson for too long, don't worry about it. After you get here, you will be free. After a while, I will accompany you to ride a horse."

"Okay, okay." The moon was beaming, and then remembered another thing. "By the way, I heard from Mrs. Zheng that Wei Zifu gave birth to a daughter, and the emperor was very upset. He hasn't been to her palace for a long time."

"Another daughter?" Liang Xiao laughed secretly. It seemed that Wei Zifu's fate would also be changed.

"Don't you men like daughters?"

"Who said that?" Liang Xiao objected. "I just like daughters, at least I don't think there is any great difference between sons and daughters."

"I knew you were different from others." Moon sighed. "Actually, we also like sons on the grasslands, but it's not as different as you Han people. After I gave birth to Ping An, my mother's face..." She stuck out her tongue and didn't continue.

Liang Xiao smiled and ignored it.After all, the moon is a barbarian, she can't understand so many profound things.Liu Ling asked her to come to Yuzhang because of his intentions.Of course, it doesn't rule out that she wants to act like a big woman.

"Before you left Chang'an, did you hear any news from Jiangdu?"

The moon is at a loss. "What's the news about Jiangdu? This year's tax?"

Liang Xiao gave the moon a white look.This prairie son is really big-hearted, she doesn't even know anything about such a big incident in Jiangdu.Forget it, it's useless to ask her, let's just wait, if there is news, Liu Ling will definitely report it as soon as possible.It's better to think about how to deal with Han Yan now.

Liang Xiao was holding the child, sitting in a chair, looking at Liu Ling's letter, a little distracted.This manor is newly built. The innovation is not only the use of glazed glass as windows, but also the desks and chairs have become Western Region-style high legs. The armchair in front of the desk was customized by Liang Xiao for himself. It is wide and big. It's just a couch.

The child didn't know when he woke up, and was about to cry with his mouth curled up.

The moon quickly carried the child over, unbuttoned the skirt, and fed the child.

Liang Xiao turned his eyes and saw the pair of perfectly round moons on the moon's chest, and was moved for a moment.It was the first time he saw the moon's body in daylight.He reached out and hugged the moon, letting her sit on his lap.

"Don't move, the baby is hungry." Yue Yue focused on breastfeeding without raising her head.

Liang Xiao hugged the moon's waist and smacked his lips exaggeratedly.

Moon turned her head to look at him, her face flushed suddenly, she got up and wanted to break free.How could Liang Xiao let her get away, and hugged her tightly. "do not move!"

"Husband, this...is daytime!" Yue Yue looked at the bright glass window with a guilty conscience. "It's not good to be seen..."

"This is my territory, who will see it?" Liang Xiao turned his head, looked through the glass window, and saw the sparkling Pengli Lake in the distance, and suddenly felt that he was really a genius.

Facing the great lake, unobstructed and unstoppable, let him be forced by wind, frost and swords, and I will bloom from the warmth of spring.
