Chapter 14 The Nine-Floor Mohist Research Institute
Fang Yuan just walked into the mansion.
Then two girls, Yingying, who were twenty-eight years old, came over.
The two of them are dressed simply, one red and one green, and their styles are very different from what ordinary people wear.
The upper body is partially worn to reveal the belly, and the lower body is partially worn to reveal the long legs.
Their beautiful legs are warm and white, slender and pretty, and their bellies are full, without a trace of excess fat.
"Master, you are back."
The two girls, one on the left and one on the right, have voices as crisp as silver bells and sweet smiles.
"Go and boil water to entertain the distinguished guests."
Fang Yuan nodded slightly and said calmly.
The two girls hummed and left obediently, their backs looking charming.
"Master Fang County, aren't the two women just Han Chinese?"
Du Ruhui came to Fang Yuan's side in a few steps.
Looking at the two girls' backs as they left, I couldn't take my eyes away.
The clothing of women in the Tang Dynasty was relatively revealing compared to women in previous dynasties, but they had never been seen so seductively.
The belly is half exposed, and the long legs are exposed. In addition, the two women are of good looks, which really makes Du Ruhui take a few more glances.
Li Shimin, who was walking a little slower, couldn't take his eyes away. He had already thought about dressing the palace maids like this when he returned to the palace.
But what's more, I'm worried about Fang Yuan. I'm worried that officials like Fang Yuan will not only not put the common people first, but will also rob civilian girls.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin thought that on the day of the bidding, Fang Yuan even called the brothel oiran to come for a massage. Such behavior made him regret his bet with Fang Yuan.
"Guanjia Du has a sharp eye and knows pearls."
"They are women from the Western Regions who are in trouble. They claim to be some kind of royal family, but they are just trying to increase their social status."
Fang Yuan chuckled.
Walk towards the backyard.
Hongxu and Qinggao met among the refugees four years ago.
At that time, we had just moved into Fang Mansion. There were few people in the mansion and it was deserted, so we selected a few people from the refugees to move in.
The two sisters came forward and seemed to be shrewd, so Fang Yuan recruited them and stayed there until now.
"Women from the Western Regions are really different."
Du Ruhui nodded, as if that was indeed the case.
He had also seen women from the Western Region in the palace, but they were not as good-looking as Fang Yuan and the other two.
The three of them walked into the backyard and walked for a while. During this period, there were two guards guarding the entrance of the passage.
Seeing the Fang Mansion being so closely guarded, Li Shimin and Du Ruhui were greatly surprised. They couldn't understand why a small mansion had to be guarded by so many people.
Finally, the three of them came to the entrance of a large courtyard.
The guards at the entrance of this courtyard are even tighter, with the number of people reduced to four.
There are five large characters on the courtyard: Mohist Research Institute.
"The Mohist Research Institute is actually here?"
Li Shimin asked with a strange expression.
The Mohist Research Institute that allowed Wuling County to develop in a short period of time was actually located in Fang Mansion?
I thought it was so high-end, but I didn't expect it to be at home. The layout instantly felt a lot lower.
"Yes, it's right here."
Fang Yuan didn't know what Li Shimin was thinking, so he led the two people in.
As soon as they entered, Li Shimin and Du Ruhui discovered the difference here.
It is like a tower or a stargazing tower. It is huge. It covers an area of several acres and is as high as nine floors.
Because Fang Mansion occupies a huge area and the designs inside Fang Mansion have their own uniqueness, it is impossible to find this Mohist Research Institute both inside and outside Fang Mansion.
"It turns out that there is a universe within."
Li Shimin's complexion changed slightly.
The number of nine poles has been associated with emperors since ancient times.
If used by anyone other than the emperor, it may bring disaster to oneself.
Fang Yuan, the Mohist institute, was suspected of being disrespectful, which made Li Shimin dissatisfied.
"Fangxian Zun, don't use the nine numbers if you can. Why are you so ungrateful?"
Du Ruhui also thought of this.
At the same time, I also noticed the change in Li Shimin's face.
In fact, when he calculated the ninth floor of the attic, his expression changed slightly and he looked at Li Shimin.
"Hahaha...misunderstanding, indeed a misunderstanding."
"There was something wrong with the project during the construction. There is a first floor above the ninth floor. It is smaller than these and can't be seen."
Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly.
He didn't think of this, and thought that the two of them were representatives of the imperial merchants, so he wanted to explain by the way.
Then Fang Yuan walked into the pavilion.
After hearing this, Li Shimin's expression returned to normal, and he followed Fang Yuan into the pavilion.
"There are a total of eighteen research rooms here, and each one studies something different."
Fang Yuan said calmly.
Then open the first door.
Everything in the room was displayed in front of the three people.
The room as a whole is white, and people coming and going are also wearing white clothes.
They worked separately, that is, except for a few people who looked over when the door opened, everyone else was working, and they did not salute Fang Yuan when he arrived.
The space is large, with desks, tea drinking facilities, and some separate rooms.
"Eighteen research laboratories?"
Li Shimin murmured, looking at everything in front of him.
After hearing eighteen, he instantly remembered his own literature museum.
There are also eighteen in my own literature hall, but these eighteen are all human beings, all world-famous bachelors.
For example, Du Ruhui next to him is one of the bachelors of the Literature Museum, and he is still ranked first.
"This is... ice cube??"
Du Ruhui noticed at first glance that there were ice cubes in the sink in the distance.
They are floating on the water, and most of them have melted. It must have been for some time.
Li Shimin quickly followed up, approached the sink, and was surprised to pick up some broken ice cubes.
Cold!
It hurts!
It’s really ice!
So as the boss selling iced watermelon said, the ice is produced by the Mohist Research Institute?
"Fang Yuan, can the Mo Institute create ice out of thin air?"
Li Shimin took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
This was really too shocking for him.
The temperature is cold in winter, so water turns into ice.
But the weather is hot in summer, so how could there be abnormal ice?
Du Ruhui on the side also looked at Fang Yuan, his eyes full of curiosity and shock.
"Boss Li, you can't create ice out of thin air."
"But ice is made of water, so we just need to use some tricks."
Fang Yuan chuckled.
Then, in the eyes of Li Shimin and Du Ruhui, Fang Yuan filled a ladle with some water, walked to the side where the saltpeter was stored, and put the amount into the ladle.
"Zi..."
A burst of smoke came out.
Li Shimin and Du Ruhui were both startled and took a step back.
However, what shocked both of them was that the water in the scoop turned into ice!!!
"This, this, is so amazing?!"
Li Shimin and Li Shimin exclaimed, neither of them could believe what they saw.
The two of them took the ladle from Fang Yuan's hand and touched the ice inside. They felt cold and painful, which made them believe that it was really ice.
Water turned into ice!!!
Miracle, miracle, absolute miracle!!!
After confirming that it was indeed Queen Bing, both of them looked at Fang Yuan with wide gong-like eyes, full of curiosity.
"This is called saltpeter, and you can buy it in many pharmacies."
"Saltpeter will absorb a lot of heat when dissolved in water, and the water will become cold enough to turn into ice."
Fang Yuan said calmly.
The guys from the Mo family were also shocked by such a simple operation.
Later, the Mohist Research Institute was gradually established, and various new things appeared, and Wuling County was born today.
"Is it that simple?"
Li Shimin looked at each other and said uncertainly.
"You'll know after you try it."
Fang Yuan spread his hands to let the two of them know each other.
The monarch and his ministers looked at each other and decided to give it a try.
However, due to the amount of saltpeter, it took the two of them three attempts to successfully create ice.
Despite this, the two of them were still extremely excited and shocked.
The Mohist Research Institute completely aroused their interest.
This is the first floor, what about the second, third, and ninth floors that follow?
