In the rain, the two people walked slowly towards the distance, with a leisurely look on their faces.
On the umbrella above my head, raindrops continued to hit it, making a crunching sound.
As Fusu walked, he said, "Teacher, what does this divine object look like?"
"When I was in court today, I actually wanted to ask."
"But I didn't dare to ask, for fear of causing trouble to the teacher."
Chen Ke seemed much more leisurely than Fu Su. He stepped on the puddles under his feet as he walked.
Perhaps a man, even at the age of sixty, still enjoys the game of treading in puddles.
"Paper?"
"Normally it's white, but now it shouldn't be white when it's made. It should be slightly yellowish or have some other colors."
"But it does not affect use."
"It should be rectangular, or square."
"Thin, thinner than silk."
"The edges are neat, but it shouldn't be possible to make paper with such neat edges now."
Listening to this description, Fusu couldn't help but feel a little envy on his face.
"I really want to see the kind of paper that the teacher saw in his dream."
Chen Ke glanced at Fusu with a half-smile: "Don't you doubt that what I said is false?"
"There is no paper in this world? And there is no such thing as the fairy dreaming as I said?"
Fusu's expression looked more serious: "How can you lie about things about immortals and gods?"
"Besides, with my status as a gentleman, I won't do such a thing."
"Teacher is one of the Nine Qings of Great Qin and has a distinguished status."
"Auspicious things and divine objects can only be the icing on the cake for teachers, but cannot save them."
"In this case, why should the teacher risk the crime of deceiving the emperor by talking about divine things?"
Fusu didn't look at Chen Ke, but looked at the sky in front of him.
"Forging a so-called divine object will do no harm to the teacher but no benefit at all."
"In this case, the teacher will not forge such a thing, so we can only make it real."
When Fusu said this, he smiled and said: "My father and the many ministers in the court generally have the same idea, right?"
"Otherwise, why would you trust the teacher?"
Chen Ke curled his lips and said nothing.
In this era, people basically still blindly trust the theory of immortals and gods.
The legendary Xu Fu has not yet appeared at this time.
Xu Fu also defrauded the First Emperor of a lot of money, and even managed to escape in the end.
At that time, did Xu Fu have anything that could prove that he saw immortals?
In fact, apart from some unfixed natural phenomena, there are no other means.
It relies on people's simple awe of immortals and gods in this era, as well as Xu Fu's mouth that shines like a lotus flower.
Chen Ke yawned, with a tired look on his face.
"lets change a topic."
"Your Majesty is serious, leave this manufacturing department to me."
"I really don't want to do it."
Chen Ke's face was full of helplessness.
He proposed paper manufacturing, and even gave the paper method to the First Emperor. A large part of his purpose was to be lazy.
But now, the divine object has been donated, and I can’t steal it even if I am lazy.
He really lost his wife and lost his troops.
Chen Ke stretched out: "Forget it, never mind."
"Let's go back first and talk about it first. Let me lie down for a while and slowly think about how to establish this manufacturing office."
With that said, Chen Ke walked forward quickly.
Fusu followed Chen Ke, with a slowly helpless look on his face.
After studying with the teacher for nearly a month, he learned nothing else, but he knew the teacher's habits clearly.
After I go back today, I'm afraid I just won't be able to get up.
At least it has to be pushed to tomorrow, and then to the day after tomorrow.
unless......
Fusu turned his head and glanced at Zhangtai Palace behind him.
Unless someone can give this lazy teacher a boost, such as his father.
Thinking of this, there was a slight smile on Fusu's lips.
Then he held an umbrella and slowly kept up with Chen Ke's pace.
........
Zhangtai Palace
After Chen Ke left, Wang Jian slowly walked out from the back of the hall with a smile on his face.
"Your Majesty, this Shaofu Chen is indeed a useful talent."
"Be stupid when you should be stupid, be smart when you should be smart."
"I even saw the shadow of myself in it."
This is a very high evaluation. After all, Wang Jian is the highest-status person in the Qin Dynasty except the First Emperor.
Not even one.
Who else can compare with Wang Jian?
Even if we look at the history of the Qin Dynasty, there are only a few people who can compare with Wang Jian.
Ying Zheng looked at Wang Jian, who was sitting there carelessly and showed no respect for face or etiquette, and held his forehead helplessly.
"Old General Wang, what do you mean by this?"
Wang Jian curled his lips: "Your Majesty has seen me look even more rogue."
"Why bother with small rituals now?"
He yawned: "But what does your Majesty think of this "paper"? "
Ying Zheng smiled slightly and picked up the wine baron in front of him: "What do you think?"
"Isn't it the gift given to me by the immortal to ascend the throne?"
Hearing the playfulness in Ying Zheng's tone, Wang Jian suddenly understood.
He immediately said with a smile: "Your Majesty is right, this thing is the gift given by the immortal to your Majesty for enthroning the throne!"
"This is absolutely unmistakable!"
"In the past, there was Shaofu Chen Ke as evidence, and in the later period, the sacred object "paper" came out."
"Who in the world can still question the orthodoxy of our Great Qin?"
The two looked at each other and smiled, then raised their glasses and drank together.
........
Chen Mansion
Three days passed, and Chen Ke lay at home day after day.
Except that I went out the next day and gave some instructions to establish the Manufacturing Department, the rest have not been found yet.
"Squeak"
Fusu came angrily from outside, with a look of resentment on his face.
"teacher!"
"What time is it now?"
"It has been three days since the imperial meeting. Why are you still here?"
"Now the entire Xianyang City, including my father, is waiting for your divine object to come out!"
"Don't you even know the undercurrent in this?"
Looking at the furious Fusu, Chen Ke just smiled faintly.
"Fusu, don't worry"
"Sit, sit, sit"
"Today I will teach you a lesson: nothing can be rushed."
He pointed to his head and said: "Fang Zi is here, Mold ordered the people from the Shaofu to do it before."
"Now the general framework has been put in place, we just lack the manpower to officially start."
"But the manpower..."
"We have to wait for an east wind."
Dongfeng?
Fusu's face was full of helplessness and suspicion. Was he really waiting for Dongfeng instead of just being lazy?
At this time, there was another burst of hurried footsteps outside.
"Sir, the CRRC order from the palace is here!"
