"For example, wrap a layer of gold on ordinary pipes, engrave some patterns of birds, beasts, insects and fish, customize a boiler separately, even use special blue and white porcelain, lay a pool for bathing and storing hot water, and give some fancy names , follow the rumors."

"For example, use good-quality fragrant wood to fire the boiler, use spring water from the mountains, use gold-wrapped pipes to transport hot water, and soak in blue and white porcelain soup springs, you can prolong your life every year, and your skin will be delicate... "

"In this way, an ordinary heating item can easily be sold at a price dozens, hundreds, or even a thousand times higher."

Sister Zheng looked at the eloquent Bai Su in front of her, and couldn't help but raise her eyelids.

It has to be said that Bai Su's business routine is really one after another, let alone those wealthy merchants and nobles.

Not to mention those wealthy merchants and nobles, even if she hadn't listened to Bai Su's description of the money-making tricks, she would probably feel very moved.

After all, what many wealthy businessmen and nobles pursue is not how practical things are, but what is special, and it is better to be higher than others.

For example, if the nutrition of eating one quail egg was comparable to two eggs, they would rather spend a hundred times the price to compete for one quail egg than eat three more eggs.

Bai Su figured out the thoughts of these people clearly, and could even tell the color of the clothes.

Chapter 280 The Political Sister Wearing a Dragon Robe

Sister Zheng was amazed for a while, and her phoenix eyes looked at Bai Su with great interest: "What a glib tongue, it is obvious that ordinary things are worth a thousand gold immediately after you say that. Should it be said that he was born in Guigu?"

"Back then, Zhang Yi relied on one mouth to forcefully turn six hundred miles into six miles from the hands of Chu State. Compared with him, you are not much better than him."

Bai Su said with a smile on his face: "I am a soldier who is proficient in human nature. With just three words, I can get someone to spend 18 yuan for me..."

Sister Zheng couldn't help but rolled her eyes: "Hmph, I don't know how many little girls you have cheated with your mouth. How could I accept your tricks."

She originally wanted to tease Bai Su, but when she mentioned this, she couldn't help feeling a little sad in her heart.

After all, she is much older than Bai Su, and when her youth is fleeting in the future, Bai Su will be upright and youthful.

Sister Zheng looked at Bai Su, who was not yet Huaxin, and her phoenix eyes could not help but feel sad: "With you here, in the future, Great Xia will surely bring peace to the country and people, and shock the world. It's just... I'm afraid the future scenery will be just to see." It's not here."

There was a touch of sadness on her graceful and luxurious pretty face, the black hairpin was coiled up high, and a slender strand of black hair hung down from her temples, making her whole person look a little depressed.

After all, the most painful thing in life is not that there are no loved ones, but that the time is too short, which makes people feel very sad.

I was born before I was born, and I am already old when I was born. I wish I could not be born at the same time, and be good to you every day.

Bai Su looked at the slightly sad and domineering sister Zheng, and couldn't help laughing: "Your Majesty obviously looks like a young girl, so how can you be old? If Your Majesty puts on casual clothes and walks with the humble minister On the street, people who don't know may think they are a pair of brother and sister after seeing it."

Of course, he said this to comfort Miss Zheng.

Although Sister Zheng's skin is as white as snow, tender and smooth, she feels like a girl in a boudoir, and although it is a bit exaggerated to describe siblings, Sister Zheng really can't tell her age.

However, there was no trace of the passage of time on her body, if it wasn't for the plump, tall, protruding, protruding figure of a beautiful young woman, she would stand with Hu Tan and Fu Su.

It really doesn't look like a mother and daughter, but a pair of sisters.

Sister Zheng's phoenix eyes couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then she came back to her senses, a little bit dumbfounded and said: "I'm not as young as you said, yet I made up some words to lie to me."

Bai Su couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, you just want me. I never tell lies during the day. If Fu Su and Your Majesty sit side by side, if I don't look carefully, I'm afraid I won't be able to tell the difference. Compared with you, it is much inferior."

After hearing Bai Su's words, Sister Zheng couldn't help being taken aback.

Her phoenix eyes gave Bai Su a strange look: "You have never seen Fu Su's body, how do you know that I am stronger than her?"

Bai Su's heart skipped a beat, wishing he could slap himself just now, why did he say so much when he had nothing to do, and accidentally slipped his mouth.

If Sister Zheng knew that when she was marrying Hu Tan, she accidentally entered the wrong bridal chamber and harmed her eldest daughter, wouldn't Sister Zheng want to chop off his crotch head.

Bai Su pretended to be calm, coughed lightly and said, "I heard from Hu Tan once, she said that my mother's figure is much better than that of my sister, and she is white and delicate, more comfortable to the touch than fine silk... ..."

Sister Zheng's fair and pretty face suddenly flushed bright red, and she said a little annoyed: "This damn girl, why do you say everything outside, when she comes back, let's see how I punish her."

Bai Su looked at Sister Zheng's embarrassment, and silently mourned for Hu Tan in his heart.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to let you take the blame. I had to do this because I had to do it. When you come back, I will definitely make you some delicious food and make up for it.

It took a long time for Sister Zheng to slow down, her fair hands raised the blue hair between her brows, she turned her head to look at Bai Su: "Okay, since you have already made a plan, then I will leave this matter to you."

"The temples in the palace are almost repaired now. You can get a set for the temples. Of course, you don't need those fancy things. Get some really useful and convenient ones."

Bai Su nodded, and said: "I will definitely design it for His Majesty personally. By the way... Your Majesty built the temple, is it to prevent the courtiers from seeing the abnormality of the body?"

A trace of surprise flashed in Zheng Jie's phoenix eyes, and she said immediately: "Did you see it?"

Bai Su said: "After all, I made the hot air balloon with my own hands along with a group of Mohist disciples. Your Majesty once went to the sky with me to see it, and I know that there are no gods in this world."

"Now, using the name of auspiciousness as an excuse, I said that I will spend a period of time in the temple, seeking immortals and practicing Taoism for a year. Obviously, I don't want the courtiers to find out that I am pregnant."

"Your Majesty, why did you do this..."

Sister Zheng looked at Bai Su's worried eyes, shook her head slightly and said, "I don't care about the eyes of the world, even if I bear the infamy, but... I really don't know how to deal with Qi'er." Yes, her disappointed eyes."

As her youngest daughter, Hu Tan has admired her since she was a child.

If there is anything interesting or delicious, the first thing that comes to mind is her as a mother. Sister Zheng also loved Hu Bin very much since she was a child.

But now, as Bai Su's mother-in-law, she is robbing her own daughter for a man, and she is pregnant, which makes Xiao Qi'er think of her.

Thinking of Hu Yan looking at himself with disbelief.

Sister Zheng couldn't help but clenched her slender jade hands tightly. Her strong guilt and guilty conscience made her phoenix eyes look complicated.

Seeing Sister Zheng's appearance, Bai Su couldn't help but said, "But it's nothing wrong to keep it a secret."

Sister Zheng glared at Bai Su in embarrassment: "It wasn't you, a damned sycophant, if it weren't for you, how could I be in such a situation now."

Bai Su was suddenly embarrassed, and couldn't help but look away guiltily.

"Forget it, as the saying goes, if you gain, you will lose. I got a horse that travels thousands of miles a day, so naturally I have to be prepared to feed it..."

Sister Zheng stood up while talking, and walked towards the screen.

Bai Su couldn't help asking, "Where are you going, Your Majesty?"

Sister Zheng paused, looked at Bai Su with her phoenix eyes, and said, "Don't you want to see me in the dragon robe?"

After that, he walked towards the screen.

A look of surprise appeared on Bai Su's face. At first he just wanted to tease Sister Zheng, saying that he wanted to see how she looked in uniform, but she actually agreed.

This... this is really an unexpected surprise.

He was holding the teacup and drinking tea continuously, after an unknown amount of time, a soft sound came from behind.

Looking up, under the sunlight, Miss Zheng's figure became more and more alluring.

The beauty in front of her was wearing a graceful and luxurious black dragon robe, which was exquisite and graceful. The dragon patterns embroidered with gold thread on the sleeves shimmered under the sunlight, like a beautiful woman. The gorgeous and unpredictable empress.

Sister Zheng looked at Bai Su who was staring blankly in front of her, her vermilion lips could not help but curl up slightly: "You idiot, what are you looking at?"

Chapter 280 An Ordinary Village Girl

"Naturally, I'm looking at the beauties. The winking eyes are shyly closed, and the red lips are gradually smiling. The wind blows the grape belt, the sun shines on the pomegranate skirt..."

Bai Su came back to his senses after a long time, and said with a smile.

There was a smile on Sister Zheng's beautiful face, and a light shone in her phoenix eyes.

She walked straight to Bai Su's side, and they sat side by side.

Sunlight poured in through the gaps in the doors and windows, and Zheng Jie's black hair exuded a faint luster, as if her body was covered with a layer of veil, like a Luoshen walking out of calligraphy and painting.

Bai Su stroked Sister Zheng's white jade hands, looked at her in a dragon robe, and couldn't help but smirked: "There is no civil and military man in this Manchu Dynasty. Seeing him at such a close distance, His Majesty looks like this."

The sister Zheng's phoenix eyes couldn't help but roll him a blank look: "Looking at the world, no one is afraid to face me, and they dare not raise their heads. Even Qin Wuyang and Jing Ke back then were not as courageous as you, a courtier."

"In that case, the minister has accomplished what Jing Ke failed to do back then."

"whats the matter?"

When Sister Zheng heard this, a hint of doubt appeared on her face, and she asked.

"Of course it's the Assassination of the First Emperor."

Bai Su smirked, and a poem about Jing Ke's assassination of the First Emperor involuntarily appeared in his mind.

Jing Ke stabs the first emperor, carrying his jade legs on his shoulders, his head lightly lifts his jade thighs in, and the fragrant sweat soaks the ivory bed...

"You damn sycophant..." The elder sister Zheng, who understood Bai Su's meaning, had a flash of embarrassment in her eyes.

Before she could speak, Bai Su chuckled, held Sister Zheng's head in his hands, and gently kissed her red lips, tasting the faint rouge, while his big hand took advantage of the trend to touch her.

Sister Zheng kissed Bai Su, her white hands pushed Bai Su's chest, but her five fingers gradually lost their strength, they tightly grasped the clothes on the chest, and then loosened their grip, repeating the cycle.

Her face gradually became flushed, her breath became short of breath, and she was a little weak to resist Bai Su's attack.

After a long time, the lips of the two slowly parted.

Sister Zheng was panting heavily, Xiafei's cheeks were full of flirtatious eyes, and there was a touch of charm on that elegant and luxurious pretty face, which was extremely lethal.

She gave Bai Su a weird look, and couldn't help but ask, "Why do you touch my every time you kiss..."

Although he didn't finish the sentence, but seeing her clutching her chest and staring at herself, the meaning was already obvious.

Facing Sister Zheng's intense gaze, Bai Su couldn't help but scratched his cheek, coughed lightly and said, "Ahem, who doesn't hold a bowl when eating?"

Sister Zheng was taken aback for a moment, and then she couldn't laugh or cry.

Every time Bai Su answered, it was completely beyond her expectation, this damned sycophant.

However, there was no trace of dislike in her heart.

Her white jade hands raised the blue hair between her brows, and after glancing at Bai Su with her phoenix eyes, she slowly bent down.

......

......

At this time, as the day of the imperial examination is getting closer.

The city of Xianyang became lively, and scholars from all over the world could be seen everywhere to take part in the imperial examination.

Many people came in advance, and even a month or two in advance.

After all, for many scholars who travel far away, it takes more than half a month just to drive along the road. In case of heavy rain and other problems along the way, the delay will be even more.

If you accidentally miss the imperial examination and want to take it again, you will have to wait another three years.

There are several three years in life, and in many cases, once you miss it, it will be a lifetime.

However, since Bai Su formulated the plan to build several vertical and horizontal brick official roads in the Central Plains, the transportation between various places has become much more convenient.

The original journey of half a month now only takes five or six days to arrive. Logically speaking, there is no need for these candidates to arrive so early.

However, in order to delay the imperial examination, many scholars rushed here ahead of time, firstly to prevent accidents on the road, and secondly, to gain insight.

After all, during the imperial examination period, scholars who passed the rural examination can settle in post stations in various places in Xianyang through the voucher, and all board and lodging expenses will be reimbursed by the government.

Even, if you need to go out in a hurry, you can also apply for a carriage from the post station.

This can be regarded as one of the benefits given by the imperial court to these future talents.

Therefore, there is an interesting saying among the people that the scholars during the imperial examination period are golden bumps, and they are always greeted with a kind face wherever they go.

But once the imperial examination is over, they will be reduced from golden lumps to three evils in an instant, and they will be despised by others.

Therefore, many scholars felt that Xianyang early on was the best way to obtain fame and fame. If they failed the exam, they would walk around and gain knowledge, which is not a loss.

"This... is this Xianyang? It's so prosperous."

A young girl dressed in coarse linen, with a bag on her back, stared blankly at the busy street in front of her, a little in disbelief.

The woman next to her couldn't help sighing: "I remember that Xianyang ten years ago was still in a state of depression, but I didn't expect it to change so much now. Even Daliang, the most prosperous capital of Wei State, didn't have such a big change. The sight."

On the street, you can see a variety of shops everywhere, including spices from the Western Regions, leather from the grasslands, and all kinds of exquisite porcelain, tea, and silk from the Central Plains.

Countless foreigners with foreign faces speak the Guanzhong dialect proficiently and sell their own things.

This bustling scene stunned them who lived in a mountain village with no news.

"Hey, all this is due to our Daliang creation."

A scholar who came early came out of the post station, looked at the stunned scholars who looked like old hats in front of him, and said with a smile.

The woman was stunned: "Da Liangzao, could it be that you mean Bai Su...Master Bai?"

The scholar asked curiously, "Oh, you know Daliang made?"

The woman nodded: "I always like to read books, but my family is poor and I really can't afford books. But later, thanks to Master Bai, I invented papermaking and printing, which allowed me to read many books at a low price. Many precious books."

"I kept this kindness in my heart and engraved your name in my heart. I didn't expect to hear your name again, so I couldn't help but ask."
