Chapter 216 [Carved eggs and quicklime]
Du Zhi feels that he has met a life mentor.
A person who works with high profile may be envied by others, but more often he is jealous, so he needs to be cautious in the court and cannot take a wrong step at all. However, when doing things with high profile like Bai Dong, he will be praised by everyone, and even the Taima Madam has to praise him, but there are unique construction projects worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. People have to pay for them, but whoever is not convinced will come? So everyone is convinced...
This must be learned, and based on his understanding of Bai Dong, Bai Zi will definitely not do business at a loss. Hundreds of thousands of gold is not a small amount. He is really so loyal to the country and spends his own money without any distress. It is absolutely impossible! It is a common problem for human beings to judge others by oneself, especially Du Zhi. He doesn't believe that Bai Dong will be so generous if he beats him to death. There must be a cat in it!
As soon as the court meeting ended, Bai Dong ran to find Fan Qiang, and the metal box containing the meteorite was on him. God knows if there will be radiation? Such a fatal matter must be solved first.
With gestures and explanations, Fan Qiang finally understood what he wanted and sent someone to get a piece of silver metal with blue light. This was a lead block. As early as the Shang Dynasty, humans would extract lead stone from ore, which was also one of the essential metals for casting bronze ware.
He ordered people to hollow out the lead block and then make a close-fitting lid. Bai Dong quickly put this Venus outside the sky symbolizing the fortune of the old Qin Dynasty into it, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. There was a lead box blocking it, so if there was any terrible radiation in the meteorite, he would not have to worry.
Fan Qiang and Du Zhi, who was following his butt, saw it inexplicably. Is it not good to have a copper box inlaid with gold foil? Do you have to use this crude lead box to hold "Vincent". After thinking for a long time, they suddenly realized that they are worthy of being Bai Zi. You can understand the truth that "the pearl is in your arms and punish without guilt." Is this meant to hide your weakness? But you are an important official of the current dynasty, and this thing is given by the country's too close. Is it really necessary to be so cautious?
Bai Dong was too lazy to explain, so he said goodbye to Fan Qiang. As soon as he jumped into his car, he suddenly saw a figure flashing, but Du Zhi followed him. Since Lantian was in danger, Nie Zhu has been protecting him wherever he went. Outsiders couldn't get in the car, so they were not much surprised. They just glared at Du Zhi: "What are you talking nonsense in the Liyang Palace? Almost ruining my good thing!"
"Haha, I'm not wrong! Good brother, we are the best partners. Don't hide the secrets from me. What kind of way do you have to save those hundreds of thousands of dollars? Or you can spend less, tell me if it's okay?"
"You know I'll save money?"
"Of course! We are all of the same type of people, how can we not feel sorry for spending our own money? Since you say it is a good thing, you naturally don't have to spend money or spend less money. You can hide this from others. How can you hide it from me?"
Du Zhi sighed: "I still have to call you a gentleman. Just say it, it makes people feel itchy."
Bai Dong looked at him and thought to himself, who is the same type of person as you? But villains have the fun of villains. They always feel happy when they stay with this guy. It is good to be a gentleman, but they are also boring. They teased him with a heart of heart, "Since you are so smart, can't you guess?"
"Is it an agency system again? No, it's no, building a school is no more than selling porcelain. How about an agency? I'm not afraid of laughing at the teacher. Du believes that he is extremely smart and can see through the methods of businessmen in the world at a glance, but when he meets a teacher, he has to be at a loss. I'll ask me..."
"Don't call me a sir. If someone calls me a sir, you must have the responsibility and responsibility of a sir. Will I take responsibility for you, a famous sly villain? It's too much of a loss! You don't have to always guess. It's best to do your own thing. Don't you want you to look for a 'green tree'? Without this thing, our 'rice paper' cannot be made. You can only make some lowest-grade silk paper every day. How can you satisfy those rich nobles?"
"The green sandalwood tree species has been found. It was planted in the mountains and forests near the papermaking workshop as early as autumn. This thing grows too slowly and may have to wait two years to use it, which is worrying."
"Don't care about food, throw more food into the mountains and forests to attract various birds; bird droppings are the best fertilizer, and combined with a certain amount of human feces, these green sandalwood trees can grow quickly. Also, Dog Zuozi is in charge of Lantian affairs and cannot get out of here. You contact Lao Qin and civilian manufacturers in various countries for me. I need a large number of skilled craftsmen and enough bricks and stones. The construction of Fengming Academy must be synchronized with the recruitment order. Once Junshu is released, we will also break ground! Let's go and see the lime kiln you presided over. How much lime is produced now?"
"There are many. The thirty warehouses built in the early stage are almost full. Lantian has a large amount of limestone transported here and they are being fired every day. But what is the use of this thing? It's just a stone that burns powder, it doesn't seem to be worth much, and you have to keep it carefully every day. It doesn't work if you see water or wet. It's a lot of money to keep this thing, and it's like running water."
"Haha, it's the weather that water is dripping into ice. Do you want me to build a school with rammed earth with glutinous rice juice? Then the house will collapse! And it's too ugly. Can you build Fengming Academy this winter? Just look at these limes. Let's go quickly. After seeing the lime kiln, I'll let you see the wonderful uses of this lime, and ensure that you will be drooling and smell fragrant for three days!"
Bai Dong laughed loudly, causing the coachman to speed up the horse and head towards the papermaking workshop.
***
Ping'an Lang patted his chest in the Liyang Palace, saying that he wanted to establish an institution for Lao Qin and the Bai family had to bear it. The news came back to Baijiazhuang, and all the young and old clans were excited. This is luck! Thinking about the fact that the Bai family was still trapped in the mountains more than a year ago. He didn't want Dongfanghong and the sun rose, and our family had a Bai Zuo Geng. With a slight raising his hand, Canghai turned into that mulberry field... He was rich and had face. Now that the Bai family is an ordinary tribe, the soldiers guarding the gate of Liyang must be respectful. The Duke and Marquis' family is just like this? This is the identity of the noble family!
For this honor and identity, no one has any objection to how much money it costs. Moreover, the money is made back by Ping Anlang. Even Bai Longye will only agree with it. Besides, has Ping Anlang ever done a loss-making business? From the day when the Bai Family Wenhua Supermarket opened, the Bai Family made more and more money. Now the members of the tribe and the air-sector are almost catching up with Lao Qin's county magistrate; when you have money, your back will be hard. If you have to spend money, your wife will be satisfied. Now the young people of the Bai family are not allowed to be broken by others. At most, they can hold three happy events in a day. Unfortunately, Ping Anlang wants to promote "older and late childbirth". The Bai family's wife is not allowed to have children under the age of 20, otherwise the population will be more prosperous!
As soon as I entered the village, I saw Mr. Bai Long, who was smiling. Every day, he ate the nutritious meal specially provided by Bai Dong and the old people in the tribe. He couldn't even be strong. He heard that Ping Anlang had returned, Mr. Bai Long came out in person. When he was about to have a good thing, he couldn't bear it anymore. He pulled Bai Dong to show him the letter. The letter was written on the best natural yellow silk, and the signature was Bai Wugeng, the head of the Yongqi Bai family. Bai Dong sneered slightly. Is this an olive branch?
"Our Yishi Village Bai tribe is actually a remnant of the Bai family's branch. It has not been valued by the master tribe for many years. Fortunately, now you, Ping'anlang, the head of the family actually came to write in person! I have read it with Mr. Yang Zhu. The gentleman said that the head of the family hopes that Baijiazhuang can recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, and in the future, he can go to the ancestral halls of Yongdu and Mei County to worship his ancestors. Become a real Bai family! It's not easy... Ping'anlang, when should the tribesmen start to go to Yong'an?"
It can be seen that Mr. Bai Long was very excited. When he was in the mountains, he often scolded the master clan for neglecting his clan members. But when the master clan leader sent a letter, he was more excited than anyone else. Bai Dong dared to bet that if he gave Mr. Bai Long a pair of wings at this time, he would be able to fly over immediately.
"How does Mr. Yang Zhu evaluate it?"
"This is my Bai family business. How good the gentleman commented, he just smiled."
"That's it, Mr. Bai Long, I hope you can smile too. As for this letter..."
Bai Dong threw away the letter written by Bai Wugeng himself, and Nie Zhu immediately ran out his sword like lightning, cutting it into countless pieces.
"Master Bailong, I only have the tribe members of Yishi Village, but I don't have any main clan. I will never mention this matter again. By the way, the carved eggs I pickled today should be ready to eat. Come and try them too. I have learned how to pickle them. In the future, the eggs and duck eggs at home will not be afraid of being damaged if they are left for a long time."
"Ping Anlang! Master Bailong is old and can't eat your good things, so you can eat it yourself!" Old Bailong was filled with joy and was in a state of not feeling good.
Bai Dong smiled slightly and just asked Mr. Bai Long to go back and rest, without saying anything more. The old man took too seriously the clan, and he needed to digest this matter slowly. He couldn't be anxious.
"The old man is confused for a while, and he will naturally understand after a long time. How can the Baijiazhuang still rely on the power of the Yongqian Bai family in today? But Bai Wugeng wants to get some of the glory of the White Brothers, which is the real thing..."
Du Zhi laughed loudly. The only one who dared not give face to the three major tribes was probably that Bai brother was the only one. He was really lucky and actually hugged such a hero's thigh. It seems that he would have to hug him tighter in the future.
The carved pine egg is actually a pine flower egg. It can be made with quicklime. The shell is crystal clear. The transparent egg green leaves are hidden in it. It is not only delicious, but also beautiful. When Du Zhi first saw it, he couldn't bear to tick the chopsticks.
This novelty can not only solve the problem of the long-lasting and easy-to-break eggs, but also make a lot of money. But it is a path after all. When Du Zhi saw Bai Dong's ripe lime that he had used water and tried its adhesiveness with hollow bricks himself. Using this thing to bond the brick body can change the cumbersomeness of rammed earth to build walls. With this thing, it is not a dream to build Fengming Academy this winter.
But how should we save money? Although lime can be sold for money, it still cannot fill a hole of hundreds of thousands of gold. He really can't guess Bai Dong's thoughts.
Bai Dong was slowly eating pineapple eggs and chatting with his mother Cao'er, but he was gradually improving his plan to "build a school with empty hands". At this time, he could not say it, and it would be difficult to have miraculous results if he said it...
