Unexpectedly, Fei Qian and Pang Tong explained what political marriage was, and were actually laughed at by Pang Tong...
Pang Tong said that the marriage model between Liu and Cai was the correct marriage model for the gentry in the Han Dynasty. If they were all like Sima Xiangru, who deceived people and money, then the gentry would have no face...
After Pang Tong said this, Fei Qian suddenly remembered that there was such a talent among the ancestors of the Sima family - yes, it is said that the tavern full of petty bourgeoisie atmosphere opened by Sima Xiangru was the only one open at that time.
Within a few days, as soon as Zhuo Wenjun's father's money arrived, he immediately shut down the business and posted a note "internal decoration", and it seemed that he had never opened it again...
Being criticized like this by Pang Tong, Fei Qian thought about it and felt that it might make sense, so he put aside the matter of the Cai family daughter. After all, it seemed that the Cai family daughter also had some tricks. In the later stages of history, she actually subdued Liu Biao quite a lot.
appropriate……
No matter what, just don't bring this kind of thing to yourself anyway.
Back under Lu Mountain, Pang Tong remembered Fei Qian's promise to make a more refined weighing instrument, so he chased Fei Qian and kept reminding him in various ways, which made Fei Qian helpless and had to do it again.
He went to the city to find a bronze craftsman and assembled a simple pallet balance for Pang Tong.
Fei Qian learned the lesson this time and made things by disassembling them. He found several craftsmen for the pallets, crossbars, brackets, and weights, and finally took the parts home for assembly.
The most critical thing in assembling a pallet balance is to find the balance point, but this is not difficult for Fei Qian. It is generally accurate. Anyway, it is definitely not as accurate as later generations.
Although Fei Qian's simple balance only accurate the smallest unit of measurement to 0.5 baht, it was a big step forward compared to the weighing instruments currently used in the Han Dynasty.
Pang Tongxin was very happy to get the tray balance and couldn't put it down. After playing with it for a long time, he hugged it happily and ran away without knowing where. He probably gave it to some friend as a treasure tribute.
Fei Qian didn't bother to pay attention to it. Anyway, the Pang family was the boss of Jingxiang, and Pang Tong was Pang Degong's subordinate. It was estimated that no blind guy would dare to offend Pang Tong, so he didn't worry at all and was happy to be quiet. After all, there was Pang Tong.
Deb assigned a lot of homework to do...
But I never expected that after half a day, I saw Pang Tong come back with empty hands and a wrinkled face, just like this.
Fei Qian was holding a scroll and reading it. He glanced at it and felt something was wrong, so he asked: "What's wrong? Where is the scale I just gave you? Did you lose it accidentally?"
Pang Tong just shook his head and didn't say anything, but when Fei Qian asked him anxiously, he covered his face and said dullly: "...I was robbed..."
Hehe, this is quite new. Who has the courage to rob the servant of Mr. Pang De of the Pang family?
Fei Qian became even more interested and wanted to find out more about it.
At first Pang Tong refused to tell him, but later he got really tired of being asked, so he said to Fei Qian: "Okay, I'll tell you, I'll tell you... but you must not tell anyone else..."
Fei Qian naturally nodded and asked Pang Tong to speak quickly.
It turned out that after Pang Tong was fooled by Fei Qian, he couldn't calculate it with the tools he had, so he thought of the Huang family. Anyway, the Pang family and the Huang family were very familiar with each other, so he went to the Huang family and borrowed a set of various methods.
I just got a new balance made by Fei Qian today. Pang Tong, who has not yet shed his teenage habits, couldn’t wait to take the new balance to Huang’s house. On the one hand, he wanted to return the borrowed tools, and on the other hand, he also wanted to show off.
Show off, but didn’t expect...
Fei Qian was listening with interest when he suddenly realized that Pang Tong had stopped talking, so he urged: "What happened next?"
"Alas..." Pang Tong sighed and said hesitantly, "But Mr. Huang happened to be away, so... the girl from the Huang family saw the scale and insisted on borrowing it... Of course I refused, and I didn't expect that stinky girl.
Because he was stronger than me... he was robbed..."
"Girl from the Huang family? Could it be Huang Yueying?" Fei Qianqian thought of Huang Yueying among the famous girls from the Huang family in Jingxiang.
"Exactly!" Pang Tong was still a little aggrieved when he said it, "A gentleman talks but doesn't do anything. How could he rob someone just by relying on his strength..."
Fei Qian gasped, unable to bear it anymore, and staggered with laughter: "Ah ha ha ha... you were actually robbed... or by a girl... ah ha ha ha... That is not a gentleman, she is a woman
, of course you can do it... No, let me laugh for a while..."
Pang Tong's already dark face turned even darker. He jumped on the spot twice and pointed at Fei Qian, "You...you..." Finally, he waved his sleeves, rushed back to the room, and slammed the door.
Pay no attention to Fei Qian, who was smiling outside the door and leaning on the wall...
****************
At this time, in the Huang Family Hermitage, the girl who robbed Pang Tong, Huang Yueying, was studying the loot.
At this time, Huang Yueying had dismantled Fei Qian's balance into pieces. She looked at each one carefully while muttering in a low voice while holding a pen on the paper beside it.
Write something.
The Huang family is good at making instruments, and Huang Chengyan is a master of instruments. As Huang Chengyan's daughter, she has been exposed to these things since she was a child. Naturally, she is also very interested in these related things. So today, when Pang Tong came over, he took his first look.
got this balance.
The scale has appeared as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but it was very rough and crude. It was just a wooden stick with a hole drilled in it and two hooks hung on both sides for measurement.
Although the balance made by Fei Qian was simpler, it was based on the structure and model of modern balances. Therefore, in the Han Dynasty, when this thing first appeared in the eyes of Huang Yueying, who was fond of making instruments, it was not to mention how big it was.
Attractiveness, new thinking mode, new measurement method...
Therefore, it turned out that Huang Yueying asked Pang Tong to borrow it for research and study, but Pang Tong refused again, so Huang Yueying was so angry that she acted boldly and snatched it away. Anyway, Huang Pang
The two families are extremely familiar with each other, and such petty quarrels among the juniors are nothing at all...
As for whether Pang Tong's little mind would be harmed by this, Huang Yueying said that was not within her scope of consideration. Now she just wants to study this interesting balance thoroughly...
A burst of hearty laughter came from outside the house. Huang Chengyan, the head of the Huang family, came back. Apparently he learned about his daughter's robbery of Pang Tong. He laughed all the way in and joked: "What kind of strange thing is it?
Is it worth snatching my baby away?"
Huang Yueying snorted, assembled the scale three times, five divided by two, put it in front of Huang Chengyan, and said, "Father, see for yourself whether it's worth grabbing!"
"Yo!" Huang Chengyan's eyes were immediately attracted. He circled the scale twice and muttered, "Well, it's interesting, it's interesting..."
