Chapter 62

 Chapter 62 You can’t eat this

The poor Guanzhong dialect is a bit uncomfortable to listen to.

Seeing that the other party was giving up, Zhang Yang said again: "I'll give you five dollars, and I'll take everything in the bag."

"Guests! Too few."

"It would be nice to pay for something no one wants."

Seeing Zhang Yang's aggressive posture, the Westerner gave up and handed over a cloth bag next to him.

Zhang Yang lost five copper coins, opened the bag and looked at the condition of spinach seeds. Spinach is one of the few vegetables that can be grown in autumn, and it is not picky about the soil.

The quantity is not large, probably around a hundred.

Seeing that Zhang Yang was gone, the man from the Western Region squatted on the roadside again, watching the pedestrians coming and going.

After collecting the spinach seeds, Zhang Yang bought some mutton and eggs at the market.

In front of the salt merchant's shop, I bought a bucket of salt. A bucket of three kilograms of coarse salt cost two thousand dollars.

This salt is so expensive that it makes my teeth hurt.

And there are a lot of impurities in this salt.

If you buy fine salt, the price will be higher.

When Zhang Yang returned home, he had to boil the coarse salt to remove the impurities in the salt, so that he could eat it with confidence.

Who knows what's in these impurities.

Carrying a parcel of things and the profit from the store, I returned home.

When Li Yue saw Zhang Yang coming back, she said with a happy smile on her face, "Come and eat."

Put the contents of the package away.

Zhang Yang took the porridge brought by Li Yue.

The porridge was very thick, it seems that too little water was added.

After taking a sip, there is a strong mushy taste.

Li Yue held her own bowl and took a sip, frowning at the porridge in the bowl.

Zhang Yang drank the porridge in the bowl in one breath.

After Li Yue saw that Zhang Yang had finished drinking, he said with a sad face: "The porridge I cooked does not taste good, and you still finished it."

Zhang Yang said: "I can barely swallow it this time. There is progress."

After the words fell, Li Yue thought of something and looked at Zhang Yang sharply, "You mean you mean I couldn't even swallow the shit I made before?"

Zhang Yang put the mutton and eggs in order and said: "Failure is the mother of success. It would be better if you fail a few more times."

Li Yue took another mouthful of porridge and held it in her mouth. The taste was very strong, so she swallowed it hard.

Her little face looked so bitter, how could he endure it?

Zhang Yang said: "You have to finish the porridge you made, and don't waste food."

After looking at Zhang Yang for a while, Li Yue took a deep breath, closed her eyes and finished the porridge in the bowl.

Zhang Yang took Li Yue's small shovel and said: "You are just used to eating the delicacies I cook, so the taste has changed. The food outside may not be that delicious. You have already done a good job."

"Yeah?"

"Um."

Zhang Yang nodded and soaked the spinach seeds in cold water and put them in a cool place, feeling the current temperature, the wind was a bit cold.

Li Yue said in despair: "Don't comfort me, I know I'm not doing well, but I will try my best."

The little girl had determination in her eyes.

It seems that she is at loggerheads with her low talent.

The temperature is pretty good, it should be fine at this temperature.

These seeds have been lying around for a while, and I don’t know how they will germinate.

If you can grow a crop, it will be a bloody profit.

Spinach is very cold-tolerant and can germinate even at minus ten degrees Celsius as long as the soil is fertile enough.

If you plant them in autumn, you will have spinach to eat in winter.

In order for Li Yue to better understand the principle of the earth's rotation and revolution, Zhang Yang planned to make a model based on wood.

Li Yue was helping on the side, her eyes looking at the seeds soaking in the basin from time to time.

Zhang Yang said: "Don't look at it, you can't eat that thing."

Li Yue stared at him closely and whispered, "I don't want to eat it."

A swingable wooden frame was made, and the three pillars could be rotated separately. Zhang Yang fixed three not-so-round wooden balls on the pillars.

Although these three balls are bumpy, they still look like balls.

Zhang Yang pointed to the ball in the middle and said: "This is where we live. This is called the earth."

Li Yue said: "Are we living on such an ugly ball?"

Curiosity is a major motivation for acquiring knowledge. Forget about arguing with her, Zhang Yang said patiently: "This is just a model. The tools are limited and we can only make it like this for the time being. We can improve it later."

Li Yue nodded.

Zhang Yang turned the bamboo to simulate revolution and rotation and said: "Because the earth rotates, there are day and night, and because it orbits the sun, it receives different sunlight, so there are four seasons."

Li Yue interrupted: "Where is the god?"

Zhang Yang said: "There are no gods in this world."

Li Yue said: "So everything mentioned in the classics is a lie, right?"

"That's right."

After thinking for a while, Li Yue sat on the rocking chair, holding her chin with one hand and frowning, "If word gets out, you will be criticized by thousands of people."

Zhang Yang looked confused, "I will indeed."

After telling Li Yue some knowledge about gravity, Zhang Yang said: "Let's stop here first and digest it well."

Li Yue nodded heavily.

In order to grow spinach, Zhang Yang commandeered Li Yue's small shovel.

I dug another piece of land next to my small vegetable garden, which is used to grow spinach.

Li Yue was also busy at home. She took down the three balls from the shelf, threw them aside, and then hung the clothes on the shelf.

After doing this, she admired it for a while, and then struggled to carry the not-so-high wooden shelf into her room.

It has been less than three hours since the model was completed, and this thing has become her clothes hanger.

It’s great to celebrate that the Tang Dynasty has a clothes rack.

In the yard, the large garden belongs to Li Yue, and the small vegetable patch belongs to Zhang Yang.

There is no harm to both sides.

Li Yue came out of the room and stared at the shovel in his hand, fearing that he would dig up the garden to plant vegetables.

Li Tai is very shy today.

Li Chengqian was particularly unhappy when he saw his arrogance.

The elegant Changsun Queen held the soap in her hand, smelling it from time to time, and observing it in the sun from time to time.

She is Li Shimin's wife.

Li Shimin is the Khan of Heaven.

She is the current queen, the most noble woman in the Tang Dynasty.

"Qingque, are you really the one who made this soap?"

Facing his mother's question, Li Tai nodded without blushing or heartbeat.

Li Chengqian stood aside and said, "If you don't study hard, why don't you just think about this kind of thing all day long?"

Prince Li Chengqian's words are like carrying a gun and a stick.

Li Tai snorted disdainfully, jealous! This is jealousy!

Empress Changsun said again: "Is this thing for bathing?"

Li Tai said: "You can use it to wash your face and hands. There will be a lingering fragrance after use."

The fragrance of chrysanthemum is really strong.

Empress Changsun put the soap aside and said, "You still have to study more on weekdays. The masters at the Imperial College are saying that you won't go to lectures again."

Li Tai lowered his head and said: "My son, I understand. I will go to the Imperial College to monitor classes in the near future."

However, Li Tai knew how to give things to his mother at a young age, and Empress Changsun was still very happy.
