"Hey! Han Li, this Mo Lingwei is the professor of your academy~?"
South of Chang'an City, Anlefang, Lin's backyard.
Today happened to be a Saturday in the Yanhuang Academy calendar, and Tiedan came over to help Lin Hao with his homework.
After Han Lizheng went to Hedong Road, Tiedan could not live alone in Hanjiazhuang, so he now lives in Li Mansion, Chang'an. Although his elder sister Han Yuxi reprimanded him for the monthly exam results, in the spirit of a gentleman's words, a horse cannot be chased. In accordance with the principle, he still came to Lin's house to fulfill his promise.
Lin Hao took advantage of the break to squat in the latrine to read today's "Datang Daily". He was almost shocked when he saw it. After wiping his buttocks in threes and threes, he limped out of the latrine. Then he walked up to Tiedan, stared at the newspaper, and exclaimed in disbelief.
Tiedan frowned and said with some displeasure: "This is a professor from our academy. Mr. Lin, please don't call him by his first name!"
Respecting teachers and teachings is a rule that every Yanhuang student must abide by!
"Ahem, sorry, sorry!"
Lin Hao coughed twice, touched his nose awkwardly, and then said: "I mean, why are there still female professors in Yanhuang Academy~?"
The look on Tiedan's face relaxed, and he replied: "My master said that Yanhuang Academy is a place to teach and educate people, develop people's wisdom, and promote engineering. Here, meritocracy is emphasized. As long as you have talent, learning, and ability, , no matter he (she) is male or female, old or young, he or she can be reused!
Professor Mo learned on his own, and spent several months in total, going back and forth to the workshop to conduct hundreds of experiments, and finally created an astronomical telescope, an artifact that can break through the limits of ordinary people's visual distance, allowing ordinary people to observe the stars in the sky! With such talents and achievements, my master said she deserves the position of professor~! "
Lin Hao couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised: "This Professor Mo is really a hero among women. It's hard to imagine that the astronomical telescope in your academy was actually made by her!"
Tiedan smiled calmly and said: "Yanhuang Academy is a real place where dragons and tigers are hidden. There are so many capable gentlemen, and there are so many capable students. When you are admitted to the academy in the future, you will be able to truly I feel it!”
Lin Hao said expectantly: "Don't worry, I will definitely pass the exam next year! But your master is really a courageous person. He actually dares to appoint a woman as a professor in the academy without fear of dissatisfaction from the other scholars! Hehe!"
Tiedan frowned and said: "Yanhuang Academy was founded by my master. He can appoint whoever he wants to be a professor. Isn't it going to interfere with other people's affairs~?"
Lin Hao chuckled and said, "Hey! Maybe..."
………………………
Li Zexuan didn't care what other people said about today's headlines in "Datang Daily". Anyway, as long as the news content was not confidential, other people could talk about whatever they liked!
In the afternoon, he received news that the first batch of bauxite shipped back from Shuozhou by Fubin had arrived at the workshop!
The time was earlier than Li Zexuan and Uncle Fu expected.
Simply having nothing to do, Li Zexuan went to the new Qiquge Workshop to confirm whether what Fubin was digging was bauxite ore.
"Master, look, these are all here~!"
Fu Bo pointed to a pile of gray-white stone-like ore in the front yard of the workshop and said, "See if it's the kind of white clay ore you want!"
Li Zexuan stepped forward and picked up a piece, looked at it carefully for a long time, and finally nodded: "That's right! Uncle Fu! This is the aluminum... clay ore I want!"
After hearing this, Uncle Fu finally felt relieved. He breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I heard from Xiao Bin that the local miners thought he was crazy, because if he was a normal person, how could he give money?" Please hire someone to dig up this seemingly useless stone!"
The bauxite mined by Fu Bin is mainly bauxite. The main component of bauxite is alumina, which is hydrated alumina containing impurities. It is an earthy mineral, usually white or off-white, and looks similar to There is no difference between ordinary gravel blocks, but the texture in your hands is completely different. Because the texture of bauxite is very soft, the hardness is only 1~3, while the hardness of ordinary stone is generally 5~6, which is still a big difference.
It was not until the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China that someone discovered the technology to extract aluminum from bauxite.
"Haha! Not everyone can discover good things! Uncle Fu, just follow the method I told you before and bake a batch of refractory cement first~!"
Li Zexuan said with a smile.
This has been agreed upon and prepared before, so Uncle Fu naturally agreed!
Seeing that there was nothing else to do here, Li Zexuan returned to Chang'an.
Recently, every weekend, he has to go back to his home in Chang'an City.
……………………
In the evening, Pang Feiji found Li Zexuan, clasped his fists and said, "Master Marquis, someone from the palace said that the Holy One has asked you to go to the morning court tomorrow!"
"Morning?"
Li Zexuan was immediately puzzled: "Why are you suddenly asking me to go to the morning court? Are there any major events related to me in the court recently~?"
Pang Feiji scratched his head, wondering: "Master Hou, this... this subordinate doesn't know!"
"Okay, then go down!"
Li Zexuan just asked subconsciously, and did not expect Pang Feiji to answer. After all, with Pang Feiji's connections, it was okay to find out some gossip, but not in the court!
"Subordinates resign!"
After Pang Feiji left, Li Zexuan thought for a long time but couldn't think of a reason, so he had to eat early and rest a little depressed.
Early the next morning, he rode Dabai, accompanied by Pang Feiji and other guards, and headed towards the palace.
After chatting with Cheng Yaojin and others for a while outside the Tai Chi Palace, he found that there was a familiar yet unfamiliar person in the crowd. He walked up to take a look and immediately laughed, "Yo! This is not Cui Doctor? Why did you come to court today?"
Cui Shanyou knew that he was far from Li Zexuan's opponent when it came to hurting others. When he heard this, he "hummed" and said with precious words: "Your Majesty has summoned me, so I have to come!"
Li Zexuan then thought about it, how could there be such a coincidence in the world? Maybe the fact that I was summoned by Li Er today might have something to do with this guy!
Let's not talk about what the old guy was doing behind his back. Just because he didn't sleep in this morning made Li Zexuan very unhappy!
So, with a calm expression on his face, Li Zexuan turned around and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Dr. Cui, I advise you to be kind! Otherwise Cui Shanfu will be a lesson to you!!"
"You~!!"
Cui Shanyou's expression suddenly changed, and he turned around and wanted to scold him, but Li Zexuan had already walked back to the general camp at this time, and he had no time!
"Go to court~! All ministers and ministers go to court~~!"
Just then, a eunuch screamed on the stairs.
All the officials suddenly became quiet, lined up one after another, held the Chao Hut in their arms and climbed up the steps towards the Tai Chi Hall!
