Liu Chang could no longer continue making looms in Jiaofang Hall.
Because now he is no longer alone.
Liu Bang sent the eunuch named Duan Shun to his side. Liu Chang didn't like this guy at first, but after several conversations, the two became familiar with him. This guy had the same interests and hobbies as Liu Chang, and the two
He liked these machines very much, and he actually understood some of the mechanical principles Liu Chang told him.
During the conversation with him, Liu Chang just learned that the palace had its own manufacturing department.
The largest manufacturing department is the Shaofu. The Shaofu is one of the Nine Qings and is responsible for the royal finances and royal supplies. Under the name of the Shaofu, there is a Shang Fanling. Shang Fanling is responsible for forging weapons and manufacturing utensils needed for the palace.
Shang Fanngling was held by eunuchs, and there were eunuchs and some excellent craftsmen in the department. Liu Chang didn't even know that there was such a department in the palace. If he knew a little bit about history, he would know that in the near future,
In the future, there will be a very famous Shang Fanling named Cai Lun.
"It's such a pity. If the young master is not a member of the royal family, he can be promoted to nobility by two levels just by relying on this object."
Duan Shun shook his head and said.
Liu Chang didn't care. He was a young master. When he grew up, he would be a king and could not be promoted any further. If he was promoted to a king... well, he would be promoted to the underworld.
Liu Chang is currently making textile looms in Shang Fang Mansion. Here, he does not have to do it himself. There are more than 20 skilled craftsmen here, all of whom are extremely good old craftsmen. These are what Liu Bang found from all over the country.
The best craftsman, Liu Chang's craftsmanship was completely inadequate in front of them.
On the first day he came here, an elderly craftsman looked at the simple mortise and tenon joints, shook his head helplessly, and grimaced.
Probably because of Liu Chang's identity, when Liu Chang asked him how his craftsmanship was, he just said, "It's a great idea."
They made another one, still following Liu Chang's idea, but the loom they made was two times longer than the one made by Liu Chang. When Liu Chang made it, he thought about how to save wood.
, therefore, many parts are almost close together, but these craftsmen are pursuing efficiency and stability, so it is a bit larger.
Liu Chang began to fall into a situation of doing nothing. He just watched the craftsmen every day. The idea of improving the textile machine was very simple. The craftsmen already knew the principle at the first glance when they took apart the semi-finished machine and did not give Liu Chang any idea.
Any opportunity to show off and slap someone in the face was taken care of with a dull head.
Liu Chang's only pastime was chatting with these craftsmen.
Liu Chang didn't like chatting with those eunuchs. It wasn't that he looked down on these people. It was just that these people had stayed in the palace for too long and talked in the same way. In order not to leave any clues, he could say as little as possible.
Don't say much, and never speak if you can't.
But these simple craftsmen were different. They were still a little afraid of Liu Chang at first, but when they found that the emperor's young master was almost the same as their own boy who needed to be beaten, they let go and occasionally used the leftovers.
Mu Lao made some small toys for Liu Chang and chatted with him about home affairs with a smile.
"Six of the four children in the family died in infancy, and these four are the only ones left... The eldest is sixteen years old, and it's time for marriage."
No matter what time it is, it seems to be the biggest wish of parents for their children to start a family. However, the difference is that in this era, if a child exceeds a certain age and does not start a family, he will be fined. It cannot be said to be a fine, but a fine.
Pay additional tax.
This system was formulated by Bao Qin. The Han Dynasty pushed back the age of marriage by one year in Bao Qin's system to show that he and Bao Qin were completely different. You can see that, forget it, you will understand even if I don't tell you.
If you didn't copy it, you just didn't copy it. It means you're tyrannizing the Qin Dynasty.
These craftsmen admired Liu Bang very much. They believed that Liu Bang must have some great power. Although their lives were not very good, they were still very satisfied. According to them, in the previous dynasty, they helped the emperor's family.
They were not paid for making utensils, but now they are given a certain amount of compensation. This is the greatness of Liu Bang in their eyes.
If you say this, Liu Bang's greatness seems a bit small. Farmers in ancient China are easily satisfied. A little favor from the ruler can make them grateful.
The common people have done countless good things to the emperor, and they can even be grateful for hundreds of years, referring to a certain fourth brother who doesn't like to talk.
"With Your Majesty's gift, life is enough, but since I can't go out here, I miss my family a little... I haven't seen my family for four years, and I always ask people to help me write letters."
Liu Chang listened to what they said attentively, and sometimes expressed his own opinions, but he never had the chance to interfere with the textile machine.
Of course, Han Xin’s courses here still have to continue.
Han Xin had already been defeated by Liu Changzheng, and Han Xin's flowers and plants in the front yard had also been destroyed by Liu Chang. At this moment, towards Liu Chang, he had automatically switched to Liu Bang's state, and was no longer testing on the edge of taking action, but
The real action has already begun.
Of course, before taking action, Han Xin wrote a memorial to Liu Bang. In it, he talked about the problem of teachers educating disciples, and used Confucius and others as examples. He talked about it in thousands of words. And Liu Bang
The reply to him was very simple, just one word, "fight".
Then, Han Xin's domestic slaves could often see Han Xin chasing the Han prince in the courtyard with his shoes.
"You built a new spinning wheel?"
Han Xin squinted his eyes and looked at Liu Chang suspiciously.
"Master, what are you looking at? I have really built it. In two days at the latest, my father will officially announce it... That machine is so powerful. You will be shocked when you see it.
.”
No matter how Liu Chang explained it, Han Xin just didn't believe it.
Liu Chang had already completed half of his basic course, and Han Xin began to simulate a battle with him, usually listing famous battles in history with him, and occasionally starting from actual situations.
"A person who is good at attacking must first be able to defend. If you are appointed as Lang Zhongling, how will you deploy your defense?"
Liu Chang thought seriously and replied: "I will deploy two-thirds of the troops at the east gate, near Wutai and Gouyi Hall, because there is a very open space outside the east gate, and there will be fewer soldiers at the north gate.
Some, because Changle Palace can act as a buffer, and the enemy will not attack the palace from here..."
"You are looking down on Wang Ling's deployment..."
"Who is Wang Ling?"
"Ling Lang."
"It turns out that Lang Zhongling's name is Wang Ling. He has no abilities. There are always such a large number of soldiers setting up defenses, and they all gather at the south gate. They don't know how to rotate..."
"Okay, let me ask you again, if there is no food in your camp and it is surrounded by enemies on three sides..."
While they were teaching, Gu suddenly walked in and said angrily: "A guest is here. Marquis Wuyang asks to see him."
Han Xin raised his head, thought for a moment, and then said: "Let him come in."
Just when Liu Chang was thinking about who Wuyang Hou was, a fierce man who was a bit stronger than Gu walked into the house. The fierce man stood there, making people scared. He was really like an iron tower. Although he was tall
, he looked very irritable, but there was a fake smile on his face, and his aura suddenly dropped a bit.
"My minister Fan Kuai pays homage to your Majesty."
"Um."
Han Xin was relatively indifferent to him, but Fan Kuai didn't think it was a big deal and knelt aside respectfully.
"Are you Fan Kuai??"
Liu Chang's eyes widened and he looked at the fierce man in front of him.
"Seventh Young Master, I am Fan Kuai."
Fan Kuai didn't look fierce at all. He didn't have the aura that convinced Xiang Yu when he ate raw pork in the textbook. Liu Chang stretched out his hand and touched his arm. Fan Kuai's arm was thicker and stiffer than Liu Chang's thigh. Fan Kuai smiled.
Laugh and let Chang Liu take advantage of it.
Han Xin, on the other hand, had a businesslike attitude, with a cold face and said nothing.
"Did you really eat raw pork at the Hongmen Banquet?"
"Eat."
"How is the taste?"
"forget."
"Then why don't you try it again? I can treat you to food."
Seeing the two fools in front of him chatting like this, Han Xin, holding back his anger, interrupted their conversation and said, "Marquis Wuyang came to visit suddenly, but what's the important matter?"
