C283 It's True
Xiao Yun laughed and said, "Your Majesty, you also know that the money of the peasants is not from the wind, and things are not so easy to make. It is really very, very difficult..."
"Alright!"
His majesty rolled his eyes and did not want to hear Xiao Yun delay.
He thought about it carefully and felt the warmth from his body. He could not help but say, "Then... Then let's have another one. "
"Okay!"
He didn't even need to go home to get it. He directly took out another one from the goods and placed it in front of His Majesty. However, this one was clearly smaller than His Majesty's one.
His Majesty was stunned for a moment and immediately understood what Xiao Yun meant.
That's right. One piece was enough for His Majesty. He couldn't bear to spend money on himself for this kind of thing. The one he bought was naturally a gift for someone else.
Xiao Yun stretched his body, then returned to the pile of goods.
He assembled the iron sheets and the blocks of the cast iron.
The hardest thing about iron was not the shape or the carving.
There were two things that were the hardest to do: melting. Except for Xiao Yun, it seemed like no one else could do it.
Two was welding!
It was really difficult to stick the two pieces of iron together and seamlessly.
In any case, it was a technology that this world did not possess. Even the most skilled artisans here would not be able to do this.
However, Xiao Yun was still very familiar with it.
In his previous life, he had learned a very ancient welding method.
This method could be passed down to future generations because of the relationship between antiques and also because this kind of welding was really beautiful!
Copper welding.
The copper water passed through the gap, and the thousand kilograms continued.
First, the copper had to be melted into a solution, which was very easy to do in this world.
Xiao Yun had already processed the parts that needed to be welded. In fact, the main thing he was doing now was to assemble the chimney.
As for the top of the chimney, there was no need to welding it. As long as it was seamlessly fitted, the joints would be plugged with something that could withstand the heat and not let it leak out.
The most important thing to install the chimney was that it had to be unobstructed. Instead, it had to be that the opening of the chimney was high enough, so that the heat would flow in the chimney. The air pressure will automatically produce an upward airflow, like a suction force. He would move all the smoke and dust out of the room.
This was actually quite difficult.
After all, in the surroundings of this ancient building, the chimney has to be fixed, and this building is made of wood. If the chimney is too close to the building, or if it is stuck, it will easily cause a fire.
If this building complex were to go on fire, then... it would be a disaster!
Therefore, to ensure a certain distance, one had to ensure that it was strong enough.
The distance between the buildings in the palace was very large, and the lack of greenery caused the wind to be very strong. If the chimney was directly blown down, it would similarly be a risk.
As for directly passing through the roof and getting out of the house, Xiao Yun did not plan to do this.
The rack in the study was at least 3 meters tall, and it was very difficult to raise the chimney to such a high height. Furthermore... it also required a lot of materials.
Xiao Yun did not have the light black and white iron sheet in his hands. This cylinder, one part was forged, the other part was grinded after casting. It was heavy and difficult to support, and the cost was also very high.
After a long time of work, the chimney was finally finished in the evening.
His Majesty had been watching from the side. He did not feel bored or tired at all.
When Xiao Yun was working, his movements were smooth, as if there was a rhythm inside, light and quick, pleasing to the eye.
And this thing was novel enough.
This made His Majesty appreciate it on one side and curious on the other, so he didn't seem tired at all.
After busying himself, he let the palace maid bring some firewood. In the end, the palace maid brought over charcoal fire, which was still somewhat fearful.
"The charcoal fire is even better, it burns faster."
Although it could not display the performance of the furnace, Xiao Yun still lit the charcoal fire. He closed the furnace door and then taught the palace maids how to clear the ashes. How much it was stored, the daily precautions, could not be too high temperature or anything. There is also the method to clear the ashes for the chimney.
At this moment, the temperature of the furnace gradually rose, and the room was clearly warmer.
Xiao Yun blinked his eyes and felt a little hungry, so he asked the palace maid to bring some meat and spices.
Water splashed onto the furnace lid and with a sizzling sound, it turned into white smoke and disappeared in an instant. The furnace lid also became clean.
A piece of meat, together with a bit of oil, made a tempting squeaking sound on the lid.
After turning over two noodles and adding some spices and salt, Xiao Yun directly ate it.
That fragrance was very strong, making His Majesty also feel hungry. He immediately rushed over and snatched the piece of meat from Xiao Yun's hands, eating it in big mouthfuls.
While eating, he pointed at the extra meat and said, "Continue to cook!"
Xiao Yun's eyes twitched.
Helpless, he could only serve as a steel-board shopkeeper once. He held a small knife and kept flipping and stir-frying on it.
Xiao Yun had his own unique spice. This time, he gave it to Leng Yueling and let her bring it home to eat.
This time, he also did not need to bring it home.
He directly called Leng Yueling into the study. The special spice poured on the meat and the taste immediately rose several levels.
Leng Yueling carefully stood by the side and looked at His Majesty and Xiao Yun sitting around the stove, eating without any image. She only felt that it was strange but did not dare to say anything.
His Majesty turned to look at Leng Yueling and then let out a long sigh.
After eating a mouthful of meat and drinking a mouthful of wine, he said, "Thinking about it carefully, Zhen has owed a lot of people these years."
Xiao Yun curled his lips and said, "How can the Leng family reward us? Old Master Leng is already in the Great Pillar Country. Who in the Qin Country military doesn't look at his expression and actions? If the younger generation were to give credit to him, I'm afraid he would not be able to get rid of him. There is no one who can keep him in check."
His Majesty gave Xiao Yun a fierce glare and scolded, "Stinking brat, you actually dare to speak the truth!"
Then he also became happy and ate even more happily.
He suddenly realized that eating meat and drinking wine like this was really refreshing!
Xiao Yun shook his head and suddenly said, "It's about time to let Nine come over. Her house won't keep warm at night."
His Majesty nodded.
Very quickly, the Ninth Princess was sent over.
The few of them carefully lifted her up, not daring to move a single inch, and directly carried the bed board.
Xiao Yun calculated the distance, and got someone to place her beside the stove, directly sitting on the ground, and getting close to her.
He reached out and touched her pulse, then probed her breathing, and finally pressed his hand on her forehead, carefully experiencing it.
After a long time, he let out a long sigh and said, "As expected, it's starting to burn."
His Majesty immediately became nervous.
Xiao Yun picked up the Nine Cycles of Peace Palace from her pillow and opened the jar. He poured out a pill the size of a pinky and opened it up bit by bit. He kneaded it into tiny pills and put them into her mouth. Her palm suddenly pressed down on her neck twice.
With a gulp, the Ninth Princess finished swallowing the pills and put them into her stomach.
Xiao Yun nervously looked at the bamboo tube on her throat, afraid that the shaking would cause the wound to split open.
Fortunately, what he was worried about did not happen.
Only then did he let out a sigh of relief and bitterly smiled, "Nine's body is really not bad. She is well rested."
Only then did His Majesty also heave a sigh of relief. He looked at the Ninth Princess and then at the bottle of medicine.
He could not help but ask, "Why do you keep calling her Nine?"
Xiao Yun touched his nose and said, "It might be a little offensive to say it out loud, but in the eyes of the peasants, she is just an ordinary five-year-old child and not some princess..."
Speaking up to this point, he turned his head and asked, "Your Majesty, do you know? Such a big child, or a child even younger than Nine. How many people die every year? This could be considered premature. The children of Qin Country were very bitter. The sadness of childhood was usually removed by four out of ten. This was what the peasants wanted to do. It is better to reduce the number of children..."
His Majesty was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his eyes twitched.
He took a sip of wine, exhaled the scent of alcohol, and laughed lightly.
He sighed leisurely and said, "Have I ever told you that the name of Saint Grade is worthy of its name?"
Xiao Yun shook his head.
His Majesty said, "Now I have said it."
