Chapter 002 The things in the bones
The red sun in the afternoon hangs high above my head.
Tang suddenly looked up at the sky, the sky was blue and cloudless, and two lonely eagles soared by, making crisp and distant chirping.
The boy's memories were bustling and coming in, and he gradually figured out his true situation.
The so-called "Haidai is only Qingzhou" means that Qingzhou is located in the east, Daiyue is connected to the west, and has been a strategic location since ancient times.
Currently, it is the central government of Ziqing vassal states, and it can barely be regarded as a relatively prosperous city in the entire Tang Dynasty.
The current Ziqing Town is no longer as good as before.
Only in charge of Zibo, Qing, Qi, Hai, and climbing to the five prefectures is basically the modern and modern central and eastern Shandong region, with low strength among the world's vassal states.
In the twilight dynasty, there were eunuchs chasing politics, fighting between friends and cliques, and separatist vassals outside. The eunuchs were arrogant and deceiving the lord, and even decided the destruction of the regime and the life and death of the emperor. The vassals held their own troops and conquered each other from time to time, and the court had no ability to govern.
In fact, the rise and fall of the world has no money to do with him for the time being, and he is more concerned about his survival issues now.
For example, I just had a bowl of porridge and didn’t know how to solve the next meal.
He scratched his head abruptly, his head was as big as a fight.
He has watched a lot of time travel dramas in the past, and men and women returned to ancient times to make trouble: purifying coarse salt, skillful frosting, making glass, advanced pulleys, watch machinery, lime cement, and other things.
There are also technological improvements in various industrial or semi-industrial technologies - gunpowder, textile industry, metal smelting, water conservancy lathes, great steam engines...
Although he is not an engineering student, he is not unable to do something like tiny inventions such as coarse salt purification and then make a fortune. But a very important issue is time.
Who gives him time?
Before he could create an invention and then turn the great patent achievements into commercial wealth, he would probably starve to death long ago.
Before he became rich and powerful, he had been slaughtered as a straw chicken.
Therefore, don’t think that if you master the so-called modern scientific knowledge that is more than a thousand years above the times, you can change the world here by wantonly.
That was the novelist's fantasy. Now, let alone making wine and glass, he couldn't even make a slingshot, so where did he find rubber bands?
Of course, perhaps because of the things in his heart, he was not very interested in these things; he felt that what he was best at was to be an official and take control, fight with others and fight with heaven and rise up in the end with wisdom. Since he could do it in his previous life, he would be able to do it in this life as well.
As long as you have power, everything will be natural.
Otherwise, even if you become a business king who is rich enough to rival a country, you will be insignificant ants in front of power holders and aristocratic families.
As he thought about it, he smiled bitterly. He traveled through time to become such a notorious and facing desperate situation. I don’t know if I have to eat dinner, but it has not stopped my surging ambitions.
Why……
He knew very well that the way to "invent wealth" should actually be taken, but now there is a simpler and more direct way to make the first pot of gold.
Tang Ku has never been a dragging person, so he is ready to do it when he thinks about it.
He was rummaging through the boxes and cabinets to find the deeds of the Tang family mansion, and the delicate little girl came again just now.
She was wearing a light green skirt and wrapped in a cloak of the same color. She stood under the screen wall in the inner courtyard to avoid the cold wind, and shouted at the abrupt bedroom: "Come on the cusp, come out!"
Well……
Tang Chu just found the official procedures for his house. He frowned and walked out the door after hearing this.
He stood at the door, looked at the personal maid named Zhu Wei, the eldest daughter of the Zhu family, and shrugged, "Is there anything to ask me for?"
In the morning, Tangxiu was driven out of the Zhu family by Xue Gui, the nephew of the Zhu family, and accidentally fell off the Qingshi Bridge and was rescued by passers-by. Hongxiu came to Tang's house for the first time to find out his life and death. He came back and forth, obviously he had other intentions.
The information that the young man left to him was confused about why the Zhu family suddenly changed his face. Because in the past month, the amount of food and clothing provided by the Zhu family was not even worse, so even if he was ridiculed as a soft-hearted person, even the servants of the Zhu family looked down on him, he didn't care.
Hongxiu spat: "I'm a soft meal, my wife said that the Zhu family is so kind to you. Since you have left the Zhu family, there is no need to continue to maintain this engagement."
A sudden sound, his eyes flashed.
This must be Zhu Wei's original words. With Hongxiu, a maid who cannot read a big word, she cannot say such clear logical words.
Seeing that he had no reaction, Hongxiu couldn't help but scold, "You are so shameless. If you keep stubborn, my cousin is not a vegetarian! When you hit you once, you can't even save your life!"
Hong Xiu's mouth was whirring, and a small hand poked out and made a fierce gesture of hitting people.
He used the "master master" Xue Gui to scare people, which shows that Xue Gui is considered a domineering person in Qingzhou.
Tang Ku's mind was outlined with a serene face, and he couldn't help but curl his lips: "Then... break the engagement."
Hongxiu was happy with a little face. She wanted to threaten a few words, but if she really couldn't, she would guide and persuade her again and again. Until the soft-hearted person agreed to break off the engagement and complete the honorable task assigned by the lady. Unexpectedly, she had not wasted much and responded abruptly.
"You know your identity!"
Hongxiu smiled and raised his finger and pointed at Tang Dan: "Remember, hurry up and sign the marriage notice. This is the instructions of my wife, so I dare not delay it. Do you hear it?"
Tang looked abrupt and expressionless, slowly stretched out his hand.
Hongxiu frowned: "What are you doing?"
"Give me the betrothal gift from the Tang family!"
The boy's memory told Tang Ku that the Tang family gave the Zhu family a lot of betrothal gifts, including two large boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, silk and silk. After these were returned, he could at least be a little landlord and eat and drink for the rest of his life.
"Bah! You'll be dying on the street without the Zhu family. Do you have the face to ask for a betrothal gift?"
Hongxiu let out a whisper, lowered her head and spat, then ignored Tang's abruptly and turned around and ran away with the corner of her skirt.
He smiled abruptly and laughed loudly.
Although the possibility of the betrothal gift being returned is not high, it is not worth it. Why don’t you want it?
As for breaking off the engagement, it doesn't matter at all.
According to Tang's abrupt judgment, the Zhu family actually thought of breaking off the engagement from the beginning, but they were afraid that others would say that the Zhu family took advantage of the troubled young man in the Tang family and barely became a good man for more than a month.
Since we have turned against each other today, there are naturally reasons for the Zhu family to decide to turn against each other.
...
Zhu Mansion.
Zhu Wei was wearing a silk robe embroidered with flowers, with a lazy expression, wrapped in a thick fur cloak, sitting cross-legged on a soft couch in front of the attic.
The flowers and trees around them have just begun to sprout, and there is a slight spring atmosphere.
She was holding a delicate snack in her hand and was about to send it to her mouth. When she heard Hongxiu's report, she stopped in the air with her gesture and couldn't help but smile: "He still has the face to ask for a betrothal gift?"
"Madam, don't pay attention to him. This is so shameless..." Hongxiu pouted.
