Chapter 35 Chang'an Travel

"Your Highness, I see you're also drunk. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Aster touched the pothos," or let His Highness go back and rest. ”

Green Pothos nodded and stepped forward to help Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming wasn't very drunk just now, but he didn't think that the stamina of this wine was quite big, and after talking for a while, he was really a little dizzy, so he had to go back to the dormitory with the support of the pothos.

Aster also went downstairs, and saw that the pothos helped Xiao Ming back, she called the servant who was responsible for transporting the drunken Qingzhou wine over, and said, "Don't be in a hurry to let the Qin family take the goods after this distillation and the drunken Qingzhou that was sent to the Qin family last time, now this drunken Qingzhou must mention the poems of His Royal Highness." ”

"Yes, Aster girl." The servant answered.

Aster turned around and went to prepare a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and it happened that the pothos came back at this time, and she said: "This Qin family is going to Chang'an tomorrow, and His Royal Highness is drunk again, it seems that you and I can only copy this poem and paste it on the wine altar one by one." ”

"Hehe, in that case, my sister's handwriting is so good-looking, you write, I'll just post it." Pothos laughed.

Aster glanced at the pothos, "You're the laziest." ”

After that, she handed a piece of Chengxintang paper to the green pothos, and said: "This Chengxintang paper was brought by the mother from Chang'an, it is very expensive, you should be careful when you cut it, Your Highness said, this Chengxintang paper with drunken Qingzhou also has style." ”

The green pothos carefully took it, this Chengxintang paper is the most prestigious paper in the Great Chongqing Kingdom, known as the skin egg like a membrane, clean as jade, thin and smooth, literati and ink writers leave ink treasure on this kind of paper.

Showing a distressed look, Green Pothos said: "Your Highness too, how can such a precious paper be pasted on the wine jar, and it is the right thing to copy the poem and frame it on it, and what is this style?" ”

"I don't know, I guess it's his nonsense again, and I also advised him not to waste it, but His Highness said that we can use more paper when the time comes." Aster shook her head.

"Also, now Your Highness, there are a lot of ideas."

The two looked at each other and smiled, one pasted colored paper, and the other copied it.

At noon, they would post all the Zuiqingzhou Shang, and let Li San send Zuiqingzhou to Qin's house, and at this time Xiao Ming also woke up.

He wasn't very drunk, but he took a nap and eased his drink.

After asking about Zuiqingzhou, and learning that all of them were sent to Qin's house, he put his mind at ease, and Li San could leave for Chang'an tomorrow.

In the afternoon, he discussed with Aster Pothos again and asked Li San to purchase some things from Chang'an.

Vegetable oil Xiao Ming is listed in the first place, these days he occasionally eats meat oil, sometimes because of the shortage of materials and when there is a break, now he really can't stand it, he can still fry vegetables when he comes back from buying vegetable oil.

Then there are some bacon, maltose, pastries and other snacks, here is not more modern than modern, in winter, the green vegetables are not eaten at all, at this time radish has not been introduced to the country of Chongqing.

Cabbage is a native of the country, this midwinter, Qingzhou is also sold cabbage, in Qingzhou East Market and West Market can be bought.

Thinking of a home-cooked dish of cabbage and pork stewed vermicelli in modern winter, Xiao Ming's saliva was like the flooding of the Yellow River, but when he thought of vermicelli, he suddenly wilted again, and the sweet potatoes made of vermicelli seemed to be foreign, and there was no one in Dayu.

"It's a place where supplies are scarce." Xiao Ming flicked his sleeves at the last time, and simply didn't think about what to procure, anyway, there were only a few.

But for him, this is also an opportunity, potatoes, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, peppers and other things that are common on the modern table are not available in the Yu Kingdom, if he can introduce these things and plant them in the fiefdom.

It's just that with the high yield of potatoes and sweet potatoes, does he still have to worry that the people in his fiefdom will not be able to eat?

Thinking of this, Xiao Ming thought of Zhang Liang, he left him behind to build a ship, and he wanted to build a big ship.

The current Dayu Kingdom is like a frog locked in a well, complacent and arrogant, ignorant of the outside world at this time, if the historical process of the West has not been interrupted, then now is the glorious Age of Discovery.

The country he loved in the past was lost in the era of sea power, and he couldn't let this happen.

Of course, he also understands that the upper-class magnates of the Great Yu Kingdom, who are immersed in the dream of the Heavenly Empire, will not agree with him, but he does not need anyone's approval, he has his own fiefdom, and he can use his own power to be this pioneer.

Leaving Aster and Pothos to continue to discuss the matter of procurement excitedly, he went up to the third floor of the main hall alone.

Here, he could take in the full view of Qingzhou City, and picked up a piece of paper again, on which he drew the most famous ocean-going sailing ship of the Age of Discovery, the Galen ship.

This ship is a three-track sailing ship that lasts for almost hundreds of years, and was remodeled several times until the appearance of the steel giant ship that became obsolete from history.

The Black Pearl of the Pirates of the Caribbean is the appearance of the Galen ship.

Of course, Xiao Ming also mastered the structure of the treasure ship and the fortune ship, but the treasure ship was too huge compared to the Galen ship, and it was not suitable for the later transformation of the warship.

This kind of Galen ship, which has been rampant for centuries, has a narrow hull, low board, crosssails, and seaworthiness has obvious advantages among all types of sailing ships at that time.

And the most important point is that it is suitable for naval warfare, and the Galen ships with guns on the left and right sides are also a model for later battleships.

Now Xiao Ming's drawing is of course not the Galen ship at the beginning, but the improved model in the later period, which has achieved optimization in terms of seaworthiness, construction speed, and material saving.

He also left gun muzzles on the sides of the ship, which could be converted into gunboats at any time in the future.

But the purpose of his current construction of the Galen ship was certainly not for naval battles, but for potatoes.

Compared with the steel assembly line, the structure of this Galen ship is much more complicated, and Xiao Ming only painted one-twentieth of it in one afternoon.

Because he slept in the morning, he didn't feel sleepy at night, and he didn't have time to wait, and it snowed anyway, so he painted all night, and the next morning he finished part of it again.

At this time, Li San came over to ask him for peace and talked about going to Chang'an.

"When you go to Chang'an this time, you must be cautious in your words and deeds, and you can't cause trouble in vain, understand?" Xiao Ming reminded sternly.

Li San's task was to ask for silver, and he didn't want to deviate.

"Yes, Your Highness." Li San was startled and quickly nodded.

With Li San, Xiao Ming deliberately went to the dock again, and he still paid more attention to this time.

"Your Highness, this time I will go to Chang'an with Li San, Your Highness can rest assured." Qin Mu stood on the merchant ship and said to Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming nodded, Qin Chuanyun was still a little slippery, this Qin Mu followed, he was a little relieved, "Then this time I will ask Brother Qin." ”

Qin Mu nodded, ordered the boatman to row, and said goodbye to Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming also clasped his fists and looked at the gray merchant ship slowly leaving.
