It was already dimming, and dozens of people were already queuing at the gate of Xianyang City. These dozens of people are all distant relatives of the court officials.
Yesterday, many courtiers got the news, so they selected the smart ones among their relatives overnight and sent them to Shang Jun's Villa to learn the magic.
Immortal magic is really too important. The courtiers did not want to leave it to stupid servants, so they chose to let their clan members learn it.
After completing their studies, courtiers can arrange for them to make fairy wine and steamed buns, and then sell them everywhere.
Of course, this kind of activity cannot be done in the name of courtiers. We are all noble nobles and cannot do this kind of thing. It is best to let these distant tribesmen take care of their affairs. The money earned in the end needs to be handed over to the courtiers and distributed according to clan rules.
When the time came, the gates of Xianyang City opened, and these courtiers and distant relatives rushed to rush out.
In less than a quarter of an hour, these people had arrived at the gate of Shangjun Courtyard.
The craftsman stood there yawning and said slowly: "Anyone who comes in must pay one hundred thousand in advance."
The distant relatives were prepared and offered Qin Banliang one after another. There were a few who were particularly flattering and said with a smile: "Master Huai, the ticket price has not changed since he took over Shangjun Courtyard. It shows that he is a child without bullying, which is admirable."
The craftsman didn't care. After collecting the money, he put them in.
A child with a runny nose came out and asked, "Are you here to learn magic?"
The courtiers and distant relatives all nodded, and the child said, "Come with me."
After a while, they were taken to a large courtyard. Aoi is waiting there.
The child said to Cano: "The people who learn the magic of immortality are here."
Cang Fu hummed, pointed to the copper kettle dripper next to him, and said: "What I teach is immortality, so the price is relatively expensive, 10,000 yuan per hour. If it exceeds one hour, it will be counted as one hour."
"If you have any questions that you don't understand, you can ask for advice in private. Ten thousand dollars per quarter of an hour."
Distant relatives all said: "It's not expensive, it's not expensive. Immortal magic is a priceless treasure. Ten thousand dollars an hour is too cheap."
Cano nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, let's start now. Ahem..."
After he said start, he started coughing. He coughed for a while, gave himself a sip of water, and then continued coughing.
After struggling for a full quarter of an hour, Cano finally explained the content of today's study: "Today, I will teach you how to brew fairy wine."
The distant relatives have been impatient for a long time, and they are a little worried about money while waiting. Now I heard that I was going to learn how to make wine, so everyone sat upright and looked like they were all listening.
Cang Fu added: "Before you learn to brew fairy wine, you must first understand the wine. There are three major legends about the origin of wine. One is that the apes made wine, the other is that Yi Di made wine, and the other is that Du Kang made wine. No matter which theory , my Chinese wine has a long history..."
Aangfu talked about the wine culture for half an hour, but he didn't get to the point yet. The distant relatives are a little desperate. If this continues, the money they bring may not be enough.
Some people have already started to back off, thinking: "How about I come back in half an hour?"
At this time, Cano said: "Okay, after talking about mortal wine, let's talk about fairy wine."
The distant relatives of the courtiers suddenly became energetic, and they all listened with their ears pricked up.
Cang Fu said: "The so-called immortal wine, as the name suggests, is the wine of immortals. When you first taste this immortal wine, you only feel it is extremely spicy. But once you get used to it, you feel it is extremely mellow. General Li Xin, for example, cannot put it down."
Next, Cano introduced the characteristics of the half-hour ambrosia. Then he memorized some famous aphorisms, such as: although the fairy wine is good, you should not drink too much. You can drink without riding a horse, and you can ride a horse without drinking. A small drink is good for pleasure, but excessive drinking is harmful to the body. What kind of man drinks fairy wine and becomes a great person...
The distant relatives of the courtiers were about to cry. At this time, Cano finally smiled and said: "Okay, it seems that everyone knows about the fairy wine. Now let's talk about how to make the fairy wine."
The distant relatives suddenly became energetic and listened attentively.
As a result, at this time, a child not far away took out a gong, banged it a few times, and shouted loudly: "The time has come."
Only then did the distant relatives realize that an hour had passed before they knew it.
Cang Fu coughed twice and said, "I'll take a rest for a while, you all can do what you want."
After Cano left, the distant relatives of the courtiers gathered together, with a somewhat tangled look on their faces.
Some people said: "Cang Fu talks too slowly. If we continue to learn like this, it will take less than ten days and a half. How can we finish learning the magic?"
Another said: "We just want to learn magic, why should we be taught the origin of wine? Even if this wine is fished out of the river, what does it have to do with us?"
Everyone complained for a while, but no one said anything back. After all, Aoi has reached the critical point. The next class will probably explain how to make ambrosia.
A quarter of an hour later, Cano came back again. This time he brought a large stack of things and distributed them to everyone.
After everyone got this thing, they were a little confused: "What is this? I have never heard of it, I have never seen it. Is it cloth? It doesn't look like it. Is it silk? It doesn't look like it either."
Cano coughed and said: "This thing is called fairy paper. The method of making wine is on this fairy paper. Next, I will start to explain."
In fact, there is only one picture on the fairy paper, which is about the equipment for distilling fairy wine.
But the attention of the distant relatives of the courtiers was now on the fairy paper itself.
Someone couldn't help but stood up and said, "Excuse me, what is this fairy paper? Why have we never heard of it?"
Cang Fu smiled slightly and said: "Immortal paper, as the name suggests, is the paper of the immortal world. Immortals read and write on it."
The distant relatives were all shocked: "You are reading and writing on this? Not on the bamboo slips?"
Cang Fu said calmly: "The bamboo slips are heavy and expensive, how to make them? Immortals read millions of words at every turn, just holding the immortal paper in their hands, working tirelessly."
Distant relatives all fumbled with the fairy paper and couldn't put it down.
Someone asked again: "I wonder how much this fairy paper is worth?"
Cano said: "Master Banished Immortal once saw paper making in the fairy world, so he has been working hard to make this thing in recent days."
"In our Shangjun Courtyard, all the craftsmen worked day and night, forgetting to eat and sleep. We have produced more than 30 kinds of paper. After repeated failures, we finally succeeded. This fairy paper is not easy to come by."
"Recently, Lord Banished Immortal has applied for a patent in the patent office. The price within this year has been determined."
When the distant relatives heard this, their hearts beat: "What do you mean? It's so difficult. Is the price going to be so high again?"
Finally, Aangfu raised a finger and said: "It's fairy paper. Calculated, it's one foot square and costs one hundred yuan."
Distant relatives were stunned. They asked carefully: "Is it one foot square, not one foot square? Not one inch square?"
Aangfu repeated it firmly: "It's one foot square."
The distant relatives were all surprised.
One foot square, only one hundred dollars? This is much cheaper than using bamboo slips. Moreover, paper is very light and easy to carry. In addition to writing, you can also draw pictures.
The distant relatives were very excited and said one after another: "Master Huai, you are really a great kind man."
They praised Huaiguzi fiercely, but in their hearts they were thinking: "Huaiguzi, do you have a conscience when you find out? Could it be that this old guy, Cang Fu, is old and confused, and has set the wrong price?"
Many people have thought of this section. They all said: "I wonder if we can buy this fairy paper?"
Aangfu said calmly: "Of course it's okay, I wonder how much you want?"
The eyes of those distant relatives shone brightly and they all shouted: "How much do you have?"
Aangfu looked at them all eager to try, and was a little puzzled. He thought to himself: "This fairy paper is made of straw, and its cost is one yuan for a cart. Selling a square foot for one hundred yuan is already a bit expensive." Sorry. What? The price is still too cheap?"
Just as Aangfu was thinking of this, he saw all his distant relatives standing up and surrounding him and saying, "Let's go buy fairy paper right now. Money and goods will be clear, and the children and old men will not be deceived."
Cano coughed and said, "However, I still want to teach you how to brew fairy wine."
The distant relatives were stunned for a moment, and then they remembered that they were here to learn the magic of immortality today.
Cano raised his voice and said: "Now, let's explain the brewing of this fairy wine."
As soon as he finished speaking, the child with a snotty nose started beating the gong again: "The time has come."
Another hour passed.
Ao Fu didn't say anything nonsense, packed up his things and left. As for the distant relatives of the court officials, they all went to the craftsmen to buy paper with huge sums of money.
…………
At noon, Chunyu Yi was driving a carriage and hurriedly left Shangjun Courtyard and headed for Xianyang City.
He didn't even bother to eat lunch. After buying a cart of fairy paper, he left here as if running away.
News came that Li Shui had the intention to increase the price of fairy paper. Therefore, in order to prevent Li Shui from going back on his word, the distant relatives of the court officials took the fairy paper and left quickly.
It's not safe to leave Shangjun Courtyard. Li Shui, a shameless person, is likely to chase people back. Therefore, the distant relatives of the courtiers rushed to Xianyang City desperately. Only when they returned to the palaces of the courtiers could they be truly safe.
A quarter of an hour later, Chunyu Yi returned to Chunyu Yue's house, panting.
As soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "I'm so happy, I'm so happy. Uncle Clan, I'm so happy."
Chunyu Yue ran out excitedly and asked, "How is it? What magical skills have you learned? Is it the method of making wine or the secret of steaming steamed buns?"
Chunyu Yi was stunned for a moment and couldn't answer. I spent hundreds of thousands of dollars this morning, but it seems I didn't learn anything.
But it doesn't matter, I finally brought the fairy paper back and made a big profit.
Chunyu Yi took out a piece of paper from the car and explained a few words to Chunyu Yue happily. Chunyu Yue immediately realized the horror of this fairy paper.
He fumbled with the fairy paper and burst into tears: "This thing will benefit the country and the people, it is precious. This thing is high quality and low price, and it will definitely replace the bamboo slips. From now on, everyone can afford to read and learn. Words. The words of saints can be spread throughout the world. This thing will bring saints to rule the world."
When Chunyu Yue got excited, he couldn't help but put his face on the fairy paper and burst into tears.
…………
In Shangjun Courtyard, Li Xin finished using the toilet and was wiping his butt with paper. After rubbing it to the refreshing place, he smiled widely and couldn't help but burst out in joy.
Pulling up his pants, he ran to Li Shui's room excitedly and said, "Brother Huai, I really admire you. Using paper to clean is really convenient and clean. You don't know, I used bamboo chips before... …”
Li Shui put down the dumplings and said with a sad face: "Brother Li, you are eating." Baidu read the latest chapter of "I was a great stickman in the Qin Dynasty" for free for the first time.
