Sure enough, in the next few days, the migrant workers working in the fields rarely saw the Marquis who was doing nothing every day.
After the crooked-necked willow tree had been empty for several days, an elderly farmer came over to see Xiaodong and asked if the marquis had left.
When he got a negative answer from Xiaodong, he left with peace of mind and said as he walked: "Hey, now we can feel relieved..."
Watching the old farmer go back step by step, Xiaodong's eyes were a little moist! Just as he was about to run over and tell Xiao Han how loved he was here, unexpectedly a gust of wind carried the farmer's words: "Since Mr. Hou hasn't left, we
This meal benefit is guaranteed, and my grandson is still waiting at home to eat meat..."
In one sentence, Xiaodong choked and rolled his eyes on the spot!
These heartless people thought they were missing Mr. Hou, but they were afraid that they would not be able to eat well and not get paid...
Xiao Han is almost turning a deaf ear to what is going on outside now, because Ren Qing and Sun Simiao are supervising him almost 24 hours a day! Last time he had diarrhea and squatted in the toilet for a long time, Sun Simiao dared to go into the toilet to take a look! It was as if he was afraid of Xiao
Han Hui would crawl into the toilet and escape, hey, I can't live this day...
Don’t think about it anymore. If you think about it too much, you’ll just cry! Just work with peace of mind, finish the work one day early and worry about it.
Because there are ready-made molds, Ren Qing's telescope is relatively easy to make. Just follow the example of the Pirates of the Caribbean movie and make a telescopic telescope.
Although Xiao Han knows that the barrel body can be shortened by using the refraction principle of the mirror, such troublesome things should be left to smart people in the future. We can't do everything by ourselves.
He drew a picture and gave it to Ren Qing, and soon, a three-section copper pipe was delivered. Next, he chose two pieces of top-quality crystal and asked the craftsman to grind them, and seal the edges with cork.
Time is in a hurry, and the crystals Ren Qing and Li Shimin asked for have not been delivered yet, so now they can only borrow Sun Simiao's. Fortunately, Sun Daochang has a kind heart, and Xiao Han would have to reach out to him to ask for interest.
The telescope only needs to produce the first sample, and Ren Qing will take care of the rest.
The most difficult thing was the microscope, but after Xiao Han's day and night research, he finally made it.
The finished microscope looks weird, and is made entirely of brass! The bottom condenser plate is made of a mirror that was urgently sent from Chang'an Babaili. Even so, the imaging effect is still not satisfactory, but at least you can see the floating objects in the water.
biology,
The microscope that took a lot of effort to build is now Sun Simiao's treasure! Outsiders are not allowed to see it. For this reason, Sun Simiao specially found someone to build a wooden box with a slide underneath.
Pull it out when in use, cover it with silk cloth when not in use, push it into the box and lock it, for fear that it will be damaged by someone's tampering!
I’ve seen people who turn against others, but I’ve never seen people who turn against people like this. As soon as things are done, they become ‘certain people’, and now they can’t even get in!
"Isn't it just to break a crystal piece? As for guarding against me as much as against thieves? I didn't even ask for royalties from you!" After receiving a big rejection at Sun Simiao's door, Xiao Han walked back angrily.
Ever since he accidentally dropped the specimen and smashed it to pieces when he was looking at the microscope, he was classified as an unpopular person by Lao Sun and was strictly prohibited from getting close to the microscope.
There is a plume of smoke coming from afar on the road, but don't worry, it's a messenger bringing materials.
Since the formed telescope needed to be made of copper, Ren Qing simply invited several more coppersmiths here to facilitate his batch production of telescopes.
He had seen iron smelting but never copper smelting. When he saw the fast horse riding straight towards the black smoke-emitting workshop, Xiao Han rolled his eyes and followed him to take a look.
The workshop is not big, and it is built in the leeward position at the edge, which is also Xiao Han's strong request. It is the bacon that is being smoked all day long, not him...
Entering the workshop, Xiao Han waved to the craftsmen who came to greet him to continue working, and Xiao Han started to watch the process of smelting copper with his hands behind his back.
The steps of blowing wind and making fire seemed to be exactly the same as smelting iron. It was not until the coppersmiths threw the copper coins into the crucible that Xiao Han felt a little pain in his heart...
China has always been a country short of copper. Especially when copper is endowed with many additional functions, it becomes increasingly scarce.
Copper is needed to make money, copper is needed for worship rituals, copper is needed to build a Buddhist temple, and copper is indispensable even for making a washbasin! Fortunately, bronze swords are no longer needed, otherwise it would be difficult to get all these coppers.
Something easy.
Piles of copper coins slowly melted in the crucible, the surrounding temperature increased rapidly, and heat waves surged in the air one after another. Xiao Han had to retreat to the door before he could breathe.
Under the high temperature, a shirtless man took a long iron ladle and scooped out the impurities in the copper water little by little. These were the lead and tin added when the coins were minted. They were useless waste and could only be discarded.
After the copper water is boiled, several coppersmiths pour the copper water into a rectangular grinding tool. When it solidifies but is not completely hardened, roll it up with a long iron rod until it is smooth.
Roll it back and forth on the stone slab, and finally pull out the iron rod. At this time, the copper piece has turned into a copper pipe.
This production method was very fast, and it didn't take long before a pile of copper pipes appeared in front of Xiao Han. Xiao Han touched his chin and looked at these copper pipes, and suddenly thought of what would happen if he used them to make gun barrels?
Thinking that he had an AK in his left hand and a rocket launcher in his right hand, facing a group of sword-wielding martial arts masters, he shouted: Who is dissatisfied?! No one among the masters dared to take a step forward. Xiao Han, who was baptized by martial arts dramas since childhood, his eyes seemed to
It has turned into a star shape.
"Hahahaha..." He stood there laughing unconsciously. Several coppersmiths nearby looked at the hysterical Xiao Han in horror. They had never experienced such an experience and now they didn't know what to do.
Fortunately, Xiaodong and Lengzi followed the sound and came over. Looking at Xiao Han's appearance, they couldn't bear to look at him, so they quickly carried him away from the left and right. It was so embarrassing when the Marquis giggled...
Xiao Han left the workshop as if running away. At this time, Xiao Han also came to his senses. Thinking of the embarrassing scene just now, he couldn't help but cover his face. He dragged Xiaodong to the ditch and washed him with cold water for several times.
He turned his face and returned to normal.
After taking a few deep breaths, he lay on his back on the grass. Watching the white clouds drifting by in the sky, Xiao Han's mood became clearer.
"Xiaodong, how about we go hunting in the Qinling Mountains?"
Xiaodong's head shook violently: "No! Brother Ren said, you'd better stay here now! It's very dangerous outside!"
"What's so dangerous? If you can choke to death if you drink water, how can you stop drinking water?" Xiao Han was unhappy with Ren Qing's restriction of his personal freedom.
