"Go away, I don't have a disciple like you. Accepting you as a disciple will only insult my young master's reputation!" Du He cursed.
But Hou Yi laughed like a fool: "Teacher, just accept me. Now that I have severed the father-son relationship with my father, I have nowhere to go. If the teacher doesn't accept me, I will really
I don’t know where to go!”
Du He knelt down and asked, "Do you really want to study science?"
"I have even dreamed about it. I heard that Senior Brother Yuan Qingfeng and Senior Brother Lu Hao have made a wooden barrel and filled it with a lot of things. After using two copper wires to lead it out, it can release lightning-like electric light... Although I have no idea about it...
I'm not interested in this, but I want to study cement! Please give me a chance, teacher!" Hou Yi said with bright eyes.
Du He discovered that this guy's eyes would only light up when he mentioned he was interested. He was usually listless, almost like a fool.
Du He stood up: "In that case, I will accept you as an unscrupulous disciple. My master now has..." He counted with his fingers, "How many disciples do I have now? Qingfeng is smart and capable.
He can sit on the bench and has a keen intuition for scientific research. Lu Hao is a simple and honest man. He may not make much achievements in research, but he has already learned Lu Bu's martial arts, the sword skills of ghosts and gods, and the righteous archery skills.
Miss Cheng's swordsmanship may make her a master in the future, but His Highness the King of Shu is talented and has outstanding achievements. Looking at it, you are the only one with mediocre qualifications and stupidity. I hope you will work hard and work hard in the future, and don't lose it.
It’s good to be a teacher!”
"Teacher, don't worry, the students will not be embarrassed!" Hou Yi kowtowed violently, his face beaming with joy.
The first time in life is always impressive!
Du He accepted a disciple for the first time and was inevitably excited.
But the second time, the third time... when it was Hou Yi's turn to pay homage to the disciple, he was already calm and calm.
Hou Yi, on the other hand, burst out laughing.
Du He taught him some basic principles of cement and let him do his own research. As for the results of the research, that was not what Du He cared about.
…
"Get rich, County Lord, get rich!"
Early in the morning, Ma Zhou hurried into Du He's yard and said happily.
Du He was brushing his teeth, raised his head and asked: "Old Ma, what can make you so excited?"
Ma Zhou has always been a calm person, but now he seemed as excited as a child. That meant something important had happened.
Ma Zhou said with a smile: "Congratulations to the county magistrate, congratulations to the county magistrate. Now pork has been promoted. The Hu County pig farm has opened ten pork shops in Chang'an, and they have been sold out for several days in a row. All counties in the Gyeonggi area are selling out.
We are very happy to have our pork shop. The county government has used his own efforts to promote pork to the whole world, so that many people who could not afford meat can eat meat. This move is beneficial to the country and the people.
It will definitely be recorded in the annals of history in the future and leave its name in history!"
Du He asked curiously: "Can you make money by paying five cents per pound of pork?"
"You can make money, but not much!" Ma Zhou replied.
Du He thought for a while and said: "Starting from tomorrow, we will start selling gelatinized pigs and white pigs. Grated pork costs ten cents per catty, and white pigs cost ten cents per catty..."
Ma Zhou's eyes widened: "County man, if you raise the price, will anyone still buy it?"
"The eyes of the people are sharp! I trust my judgment!"
"yes!"
Ma Zhou went to prepare suspiciously.
…
Early the next morning.
There was a long queue at the entrance of the largest pork shop in Hu County.
The shop assistants are busy.
At this time, people discovered something unusual.
The shop that originally had only three windows now has two more windows.
In front of these two newly added windows, there are also price signs hanging: high-quality pork, ten cents per catty, and sacred pork, fifty cents per catty.
Ten cents?
Fifty cents?
This is a price increase!
Many people were angry at that time.
You know that Du He has no good intentions. After promoting pork, he then raised the price. How can this be unreasonable?
An old man angrily walked to the window of Ten Wenqian Pork and asked: "It's so good, why do you have to raise the price? Isn't this a trap for everyone?"
A chubby shopkeeper appeared and said with a smile: "My father-in-law, you are wrong. We have not raised the price. The pork next to it still costs five cents per catty, but the price of ten cents per catty is
The newly released pigs from the pig farm are all high-quality pork!”
"What bullshit fine pork? It's just a liar!"
"Yes, liar!"
"What's the difference between this high-quality pork and ordinary pork? Why does it cost ten cents a pound?"
Everyone was filled with indignation.
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Don't worry, everyone, you will know if it is high-quality pork if you come up and smell it."
Um?
With suspicion in mind, everyone stepped forward to the piece of pork and smelled it carefully.
Suddenly, many people showed shocked expressions.
This pork looks no different from the pork sold in the past, but when you get closer, you can smell the aroma of meat.
In the past, when you get close to pork, you will smell a strange smell. It is precisely because of this strange smell that for thousands of years, fewer and fewer people have eaten pork. This pork must be eaten according to the method taught by the Food Research Institute.
Do this to get rid of the strange smell.
But now this high-quality pork has no strange smell at all.
"Why is this?"
"Amazing!"
Everyone praised him one after another.
The shopkeeper said with a smile: "Everyone, I am not lying to you, and the pig farm will not lie to you. This is high-quality pork."
Everyone was convinced, and someone asked again: "Then what kind of magical pork is it? Why can it be sold for fifty cents a pound?"
The shopkeeper explained: "You don't know, this divine pork is white pork. Have you ever seen a white pig?"
"Never!"
"I've only heard that there are white pigs in pig farms, but I've never seen one!"
"There are no white pigs in the world, I'm afraid it's just a lie!"
Many people think this is a trick played by pig farmers because no one has ever seen what a white pig looks like.
The shopkeeper laughed and said: "Don't worry, everyone, this white pig is exactly the pork that Mr. Wang Situ eats today. On that day, Mr. Wang was suffering from diarrhea and there was no cure. Fortunately, the county official took action and gave it to Mr. Wang.
A bowl of white pork made Mr. Wang healed. If you don’t believe it, it is clearly recorded on the pork monument... Of course, the county official said that the white pig Mr. Wang ate was the only sacred pig on the Huxian farm.
As for the other white pigs, although they have no curative effect, they can also make people feel refreshed and healthy, so fifty coins is not expensive!"
Snap.
The shopkeeper clapped his hands.
A few waiters came from the backyard, noisily carrying a large white pig that had been dissected, and placed it on the chopping board with a bang.
