Chapter 80: White Bone Smelting and Melting Blood (End)

Shi's proposal sounded very reasonable, but Mozi sighed when he heard it.

"If the people of the world cannot accept the principles of righteousness, how can these names of origin be accepted by all the people of the world? If the people of the world don't accept it, even if I say what is a circle and what is a moment, what is the use of them not accepting it? ”

The occasional sluggish aura surprised Shi, I don't know why Mozi who is like that on weekdays is what happened today?

After Mozi sighed, he returned to his normal state and didn't say anything more, just got up and let Shi continue to do the rest.

When he got up and went out, Shi followed Mozi to the toilet, watching Mozi untie his belt and stand against the toilet wall for a long time, and it took a long time to finish untying his hands, Shi seemed to understand something.

This person who has done righteousness without regrets all his life, but he is a human being, and he will eventually get old, and he is already old.

No matter how convenient his legs and feet are on weekdays and he travels thousands of miles, the aging of his body is irreversible. The kind of regret that has done righteousness all his life but has not changed the world is accompanied by this kind of aging as a sigh.

The serious illness, the doubts of his disciples, the rebellion of Shengqiu, and the Song Gong would rather believe in the mandate of heaven than do righteousness and strengthen the country...... All these things come together in a year, and even if you are strong, you will also have real pain.

Mozi was still tying a belt there.

After thinking about it, I felt that this situation was in the toilet again, and some words were not the right time, but I still said on the smell of the simple toilet: "Sir, I believe that one day people in the world will always accept Mr.'s righteousness and Mr.'s argument." What is a circle and what is a moment, these things are like grinding wheat flour, there must always be first, and then consider how to make the world accept. ”

"Now the ink is synonymous with the top and bottom, just like one person, and there will be more in the future. Each has its own division of labor. Sir, you can concentrate on writing the name of righteousness and origin, and I will transcribe it. Specific matters are discussed by the Mo master or the seven enlightenments, and the gentleman only makes the final decision, or only talks about the general plan, and there is no longer a need for the gentleman to be responsible for the daily arrangements. If there is anything, I, the secretary, can also sort it out and hand it over to them. ”

He probably hoped that the smell of the toilet could hide the real purpose hidden in his words, or maybe he felt that the toilet chat was a very casual scene, and if it didn't work out, it would be a joke.

At this time, whether it is a country or an independent organization like Mozhi, its power structure is not sound, and it is very vague to say the scope of the secretary's work.

The original structure of the Mozi organization is still centered on Mozi, and it will take several years or even ten years to mature the organization.

During this period, Mozi was still there, which determined that the real power center of Mozi could not be the Seven Enlightenment Consultations, at least not for a short period of time.

If he can become a real but unknown "eunuch with a pen and a pen", it will be of great benefit to the future.

Mozi didn't think much about the real purpose of the suit, but said, "I'll be busy with the things here first." When the things of straw are over in May, you will prepare. In two or three years, I'm afraid I won't be able to do this. I'm worried that the chaos in Qi will lead to a great struggle in the world. Once the light of day is revealed, it is time to prepare for the defense of the city. Meat eaters despise, and it is the people of the city who suffer. ”

…………

After that toilet conversation, Shi stopped talking about it, as if he had inadvertently said that he didn't care.

There is still one month before the fifth day of the fifth month of May, and the promised January will be completed and need to hurry up.

Needless to say, distilled spirits that can be burned by the fusion of water and fire.

There are rare potters in the world, and it doesn't take much effort to make a simple set of distilled spirit utensils that are only used in small quantities.

The difficult thing is to explain the principle of distillation to the ink people present, and by the way, talk about the operating mechanism of yeast.

The gunpowder that leads to the fire of thunder and the sound of five thunders does not need to memorize any standard ratio.

Writing out the equation trim and calculating the molecular weight comparison is the perfect match, and it can't be more perfect than this.

The sulfur ink is there itself, and there is not much nitrate scraped in the toilet, and it is not difficult to purify it according to the solubility after boiling.

The acid-alkali of the ghostly shadow, the hemp rope that is constantly soaked in salt and brine by the fire woven by the golden black feather, and the smoky gunpowder that creates the smoke effect of the immortals, all do not require much thought.

The only thing that is a little difficult is the phosphorus called "Zhu Rongxue" at this time.

Using white bone meal as raw material, carbon powder is reduced, silica sand is added, and the reduced phosphorus vapor can be produced through cold water.

On the utensils, just use the original porcelain that already existed at this time.

Primitive porcelain has appeared, and in the tomb group where the crystal cups of the Warring States period have been unearthed, bell ceremonies made of primitive porcelain have also been unearthed.

It is impossible for pottery to make the sound of gold and stone, primitive porcelain can do, and it is not beyond the technical difficulty of making primitive porcelain that there can be chimes of primitive porcelain, and the utensils that make primitive porcelain are not beyond the technical difficulty at this time.

Of course, these primitive porcelain chimes can not be tuned, although there is the sound of gold and stone, but the tone is not accurate, can only accompany the funeral or decoration, but also prove that Wu Yue and other places have been gradually assimilated by the Central Plains culture at this time.

Moshi was often active in Chu Yue and had a close relationship with handicraftsmen, including potters who could fire primitive porcelain.

To make a vessel, add charcoal and react with oxygen to generate protective gas to prevent phosphorus vapor oxidation, and the gas is cooled and collected by cold water. The required temperature can also be achieved with the large bellows and charcoal used by the inkmen to defend the city.

The most difficult thing is the poisoning caused by exposure to phosphorus.

In desperation, I can only use bamboo chips to make a skeleton, find a leather maker to make a leather cover, and make the shape of a pig's arch mouth. Add non-active charcoal powder to the arch and hold it to the mouth to breathe.

The ink artists who were busy with him were all holding on to this thing, and they couldn't speak, and when they were far away, they looked like a group of pigs had become essences, busy there.

Those who don't participate will not come close when they hear how terrible this thing is, but they will inevitably make a few jokes about these pigs.

Mozi picked one up and tried it, and said with a smile: "This thing is not bad." If it really seems to be suitable to say that it can prevent smoke and dust, it is very good for defending the city. If the enemy digs a tunnel, pours smoke into it, and takes this with the eyewash wine I cultivated, more than ten people can kill more than 100 people who have entered from the tunnel. ”

Immediately asked the inkman outside to light a pile of smoke, and after taking it himself, he stood in the smoke with his eyes closed and took a few breaths.

It still has a taste, but it is much better than going directly into the smoke, and it is completely possible to use the smoke in the tunnel to kill the enemy.

After Shi Shi came out of the room that was dedicated to smelting Zhu Rong's blood, Mozi asked a few words how he came up with this thing.

Naturally, he pushed it to Mr. Sai and Tang Han, only saying that the original thing he saw was covered by his eyes, and there was something on it that could see the outside clearly, like a layer of solidified water, and that that thing was the straw that would replace the window in the future......

As soon as he said this, Mozi asked directly, "Are you talking about water jade?" ”

Water jade is crystal, take its crystal like water, its hard as jade.

Crystals have long existed, and the jade culture of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period shined, and there was almost no difference between the crystal cup against the sky and the glass that was suitable for use.

Along the Surabaya River, through the Huai River to the mouth of the sea, there is the largest crystal mine at this time, the East China Sea crystal of later generations, and the Tanzi country that was destroyed by Yue ten years ago. That's why the Crystal Cup of the Defiance of the Sky appeared in the tomb of Wu Yue.

It's just that the crystal is a treasure, not available to ordinary people, so he said: "It's not water jade, it's sintered with sand and gravel minerals." ”

He thought that saying this would calm Mozi, but he didn't want Mozi to ask directly: "Is that similar to Xuan Lin?" I've also seen Xuan Lin Zhu, but the color is green, and most of them are beads. Or for the Ming vessel, or for ornamentation. ”

I didn't know what Xuan Lin was, so I asked a few words, and finally understood that maybe this Xuan Lin was the name of glass or glass at this time.

Xuan Linzhu should be those dragonfly eyes in the tombs of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and the exquisite utensils fired by lead barium glass are priceless.

Although it is difficult for civilians to see, the upper class is really no stranger to lead barium glass, which is different from the potassium calcium and sodium glass of later generations.

Dragonfly eyes made of lead barium glass are found in many tombs.

Seventeen pieces have been unearthed in the tomb of Zhao Xiangzi Zhao Wuxian, and the grandfather of the Gongzaoye brothers once cast bells for the king of Chu to give Zeng Hou in the tomb has also been unearthed, and more than 170 pieces have been unearthed.

Most of them are local, but more than a dozen are clearly from Egypt or Persia.

Although there was no Silk Road at this time, exchanges between East and West had already begun and continued for many years, and they were clearly two routes.

One is the northwest line, and the other is Persia to India and then to the ancient Shu state and then to the Chu state and Wuyue.

At this time, the Persian Empire was strong, and Egypt had not yet rebelled. The Scythians were in Western Asia, communicating the East and the West.

Eye worship is the standard West Asian and Central Asian style, suitable for the familiar legend of eye worship in Western regions countries such as the Exquisite Kingdom, coupled with the variant of the Eye of Horus culture in Egypt in West Asia and Central Asia, creating the glass bead dragonfly eyes in the ornaments or burial goods of the upper nobles of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

At this time, the imitation has been completed, and it can be fired in various countries, but it is not leaked, it is extremely expensive, and it is very difficult to use the silk knotting method.

Mozi has traveled extensively and has seen a lot, so he thought of Xuan Lin as soon as he said it, and then he realized that the kind of thing that can transmit light that Shi said could really be sintered.

Hearing Mozi say this, he was scheming and asked, "What is the price of Xuan Linzhu?" ”

Mozi didn't think much about it, and said with a smile: "The price is geometric, and it has nothing to do with us." The princes all regarded Jingshan jade, Suihou Zhu, and Xuan Linyan as treasures, which were worth thousands of gold. But in the eyes of the inkman, it is worthless. ”

"This thing cannot be eaten, attacked and defended, and cannot be prolific in linen clothes, nor can it benefit the world, so it is not a treasure in the eyes of the inkers. It can't be compared with righteousness, in my eyes, a thousand Jingshan jade and Xuan Lin's eyes are not as good as your method of staying wheat and wheat flour. ”

Shi hurriedly said yes, but in his heart he knew that this thing must be extremely expensive, and it was widely available in the upper class. They have accepted these things, as long as the shape is better, it is not difficult to exchange it for a thousand gold.

Dragonfly eyes can't do it, get some broken glass balls, dark green glasses or something, it shouldn't be difficult to trick the nobles into making some money. Crystal, lead and barium glass were very marketable in the aristocratic society, and in the Han Dynasty, there were people who used crystal to make sword hilts......

Since Mozi compared this Xuan Linyan with Sui Hou Zhu and Jing Shanyu, it seemed that he did not answer, but in fact, he had already got the answer he wanted.

He didn't ask anymore, and when it came to Zhu Rongxue, he only said that he had collected some of them, and a few more days would be enough for this sacrifice to usurp Wu Zhu.

Mozi didn't think about the price of Xuan Lin, so he began to instruct those who were proficient in the sense of sacrificial rituals to prepare various utensils for the May sacrifice.

The speaker has a heart, the listener has no intention, but there are also listeners who have an intention.

As the head of the inspector, the grandson of Gao Sun is the one who supervises the ink. In addition, Mozi also said a lot that day, this person knows too much, if he is not used to do righteousness but to cause trouble in the world, he will be more powerful than others, so he has been watching Shi these days.

It's not a personal vendetta, it's like Sheng Yu hated him and said that he was nosy, he really wanted to do righteousness, so he couldn't rub sand in his eyes.

It is precisely because of the importance that the eyes are more close. In the future, if one day he is suitable for rebellion and injustice, and the thirteen swords that kill him require the consent of the Seven Enlightenments.

He is also one of the seven evils, and he is one of the seven evils, and he is already within his own right.

A few days ago, after making a highly combustible distilled spirit, I first invited a group of ink masters to taste it, and the grandson got drunk after drinking a glass.

Even if you are drunk, all you think about is whether this thing is harmful or beneficial to the world?

After thinking about it for three whole days and calculating all kinds of gains and losses, he felt that this thing was definitely harmful to the world.

Because most people in the world can't even afford to drink sour and light wine, these clear and high-quality wines can only be enjoyed by those princes and nobles.

They only rely on collecting land rent and fiefdom income or lending, which ordinary people cannot afford to drink, and if the princes and nobles are addicted to alcohol, they will inevitably be more exploitative.

In addition, this thing needs a lot of food, and many people still have to eat vegetables every year to survive, and at this time, it is not a good thing to get this thing out and consume food, although the taste is indeed strong enough to have a ranger atmosphere.

Now that Shi asked about the price of Xuan Linyan, Gao Sun thought that Shi might sell these things like a wheat flour mill.

This thing is no better than wheat flour and wheat grinding plate, and it is not of great benefit to the world, Mozi has always thought that treasures such as Jingshan jade are not treasures at all, and he is the same.

If the nobles want to buy it, it is not impossible to sell it for a thousand gold, but where does this thousand gold come from? Not yet taxable income? As soon as this thing came out, the nobles went crazy and robbed it, or they could raise taxes, wasn't this harm caused by the people who made Xuan Lin's eyes?

He felt that if this was the case, the ink master would be inseparable, and this thing would never be beneficial to the world.

If it was a new spinning wheel, waterwheel or something like that, his grandson would definitely do his best to promote it to the world, but he really didn't think it would be any good.

The eldest grandson didn't punish him, although he intended to, he didn't think much about the purpose of doing so, but he just felt that it was necessary to remind him to do his duty and supervision.

Thinking of the gathering of the ink masters a few days ago, I said in my heart that this matter needs to be present after all the giants and all the ink masters to be able to say it. I also thought, this person is not a good person, he is not right about things, he will not hate himself, even if he holds a grudge, what is it? Isn't his own inspection a grudge?

It is not only a reminder of suitability, but also a reminder to the rest of the ink to distinguish between benefits and disadvantages.

But now I have to be busy with the May Festival, and I didn't say what it was going to do, and besides, the seven realizations were not complete, so there was no need to talk about this matter at this time.

Gao Sun Tzu thought that when the gathering of ink scholars, the gathering of the Seven Enlightenment Evils, and the gathering of Wu Zhu were resolved in September, he would remind him of this problem in public.

It's not about people, it's about things. This is a duty and an obligation, and the grandson is not afraid to hate himself, and he believes that he will not hate himself. If you have a righteous heart, you will naturally be fearless.
