Daily life in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 27 Arrangement and Practice

Day two.

Before dawn, before Mo Jun woke up, there were already four beautiful maids outside the room, waiting outside the door with washbasins, towels and new clothes.

When Mo Jun woke up, he didn't even have to move a finger, he finished washing and dressing under the service of four maids.

to be frank.

More than 20 years in the last life, Mo Jun has long been used to doing things by himself, with ample food and clothing.For a while, I was really not used to this decadent aristocratic life.

But in order to integrate himself into this world as soon as possible, he had to force himself to accept the reality.

The only thing Mo Jun has been criticizing so far is the food from the Warring States period.

There are two main types of utensils used for cooking in the current era, bronze tripods and clay pots.The cooking method is also very simple, nothing more than steaming, boiling and roasting.

Some top chefs have mastered some different cooking skills, but that obviously has nothing to do with ordinary people.

Mo Jun is now a petty nobleman.

Although several servants in the family have also mastered some cooking techniques, they are obviously far from the so-called master chef.

"It seems that there is still a long way to go to enjoy the extravagant and extravagant life!"

After finishing the monotonous breakfast in a few mouthfuls, Mo Jun secretly sighed in his heart.

"Later, I will buy a few lambs, porcupines, and some chickens, ducks, geese, and poultry to raise in the zoo, and then I will buy a cattle to send to the farm. By the way, I will buy some grain seeds and put them at home. I have other uses. In addition, find someone to build a few iron pots..."

"Yes, little one wrote it down."

Regarding the orders of my new master, the servants were actually a little puzzled. After all, the other things they bought were normal, but the two things, 'pig cub' and 'iron pot', were indeed a bit incomprehensible .

After all, pig pigs are also pigs.Although there is no such thing as cheap meat at present, pork pig meat is born with a kind of fishy smell that is difficult to get rid of. It may be considered precious to ordinary people who can't afford meat, but most nobles with a little wealth are Do not eat this thing.

Then there is the iron pot. The so-called man can't eat five tripods in life, but he should cook with five tripods when he dies.

Many customs of the Spring and Autumn Period were passed down during the Warring States Period, and nobles often honored cooking food with bronze tripods.There are indeed some wealthy people on the market who will make iron pots for use, after all, clay pots are fragile.

But the real nobles usually use bronze utensils to cook food, which is a symbol of nobility.

But although they were puzzled, these servants would not question Mr. Mo's decision. As servants, the only thing they had to do was to obey the master's orders and do things well.

After the servant wrote it down, he turned around and was about to retreat.

But at this moment, Mo Jun suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, from today onwards, all the servants in the family will have an extra breakfast every day. Everything you need will be taken directly from the doctor's yearly gift. If it’s not enough, use those silk cloths instead.”

According to the measurement unit of later generations, one stone of corn weighs about sixty catties.

In other words.

Even Mo Jun, a "doctor" with a fifth-class title in the Qin State, can add up to [-] catties of corn for a year's salary.

Calculated on average, they can only consume no more than [-] catties of corn per day.

Although it seems a lot, a large part of these corns are used to buy daily necessities, including meat, vegetables, pots and pans...etc.

In this way, 250 shi of corn is actually not much.

If these annual offerings were only used to provide for ordinary officials and their families, it would be more than enough.But if you add the servants and servants in the family, it is probably a bit reluctant.

Therefore, in order to save food, most officials and aristocrats, the most common method is to reduce the rations of servants.

However, when it came to Mo Jun, it was the complete opposite.

Mo Jun thinks he is not a purely good person, because it is difficult for a good person to survive in this world.

But no matter what, since you want others to do things for you, let’s not say how good the conditions are, at least the food must be full!
"My little servant, thank you master!"

After a short period of surprise and shock, the servant came back to his senses, then hurriedly knelt down on the ground, weeping with gratitude.

Mr. Mo's move is indeed suspected of buying people's hearts, but a gentleman always talks about his deeds regardless of his heart.

······
After simply arranging the trivial matters at home, Mo Jun's life in Xianyang gradually calmed down.

Although Mo Jun is now a "doctor" of the fifth-class nobleman, in places like Xianyang, especially Dongcheng and Zhongcheng, if you throw a brick from the sky, it is estimated that seven nobles with noble titles can be thrown out of ten people.

Even if it is rare to be promoted to five levels in a row, it is indeed relatively rare in Qin State, but this cannot conceal the fact that Mo Jun is only a "doctor" now.

What's more, his reward was deliberately reduced by Ying Zheng.

So when Mo Jun came to Xianyang, he didn't attract anyone's attention at all.

This kind of life has been going on for three days.

In the past three days, Mr. Mo has mainly done two things.

One is to return to one's old business. Compared with penicillin before, in fact, taking the road of agriculture is the road that Mo Jun originally planned for himself.

But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes.

What's more, wanting to change Qin's existing agriculture and animal husbandry is not a one-time achievement.

Even if Mr. Mo now has plug-in assistance, coupled with the rich knowledge stored in his mind, at least it takes "years" as a unit before he can receive something.

The second is to practice.

Because of the lack of enough "murderous intent", Mo Jun is unable to advance the progress of "Song of No Battle".

But now he still has two martial arts in his hand, "Impermanence Sword Art" and "Thousand Miles Divine Walking Art", which he has not practiced.

"Impermanence Sword Art" is divided into three layers, namely:
Shaped swordsmanship.

potential swordsmanship.

Excalibur.

Shaped swordsmanship is more important than moves. Every move and style recorded in it is honed in countless killings and is the basis of the entire swordsmanship.

Potential swordsmanship can integrate "power and power" into sword moves, and cooperate with "Song of No War", which is enough to exert amazing power.It is also the core of "Impermanence Sword Art".

Excalibur is the ultimate lore sword. This sword transcends the level of "potential" and has already involved spiritual attacks.

There is no distinction between high and low in the three levels of swordsmanship, because the three are complementary to each other.

As long as the previous level of swordsmanship reaches a certain standard, you can practice the next level.But this is not to say that after practicing Shijian, there is no need to practice Xingjian from now on.

There is no end to the training of martial arts, and only by constantly climbing up can it be possible to reach the peak.

The same principle applies to the practice of "Thousand Miles of Divine Walking Technique".

Divine Walking Technique is also a kind of light work, but light work generally focuses on agility and dodge, agility and lightness.

The divine movement technique tends to burst at an instant speed, and direct long-distance raids.

Relying on the assistance of [Adventurer's Soul] and a large number of [Red Small Crystals], Mo Jun has made rapid progress in the cultivation of these two martial arts.

until three days later.

The visit of several old friends broke Mo Jun's peaceful life.
