Ancient Fortune Records

From June to August, Shen Li finally deeply felt how painful the life of officials in the Imperial City of Kyoto is.It's really hot!Shen Li has just arrived, although he is a fifth-rank official, but Fu Shi may have some opinions on the inner ice well that delivers ice to the Qing officials in the Shanglin Department under the Shinong Temple, and the ice sent to Shen Li is not enough every time .

In the capital of Dazhao, there are two ice wells, the East Ice Well and the West Ice Well in the Forbidden Garden.Nei Bingjing Fushi is just a rank nine official, so it can be seen that someone above wants to embarrass Shen Li, but for the sake of the emperor, he dare not go too far, so he can only disgust Shen Li from these details.

They expected that Shen Li would not sue them because of the lack of ice, so they dared to blatantly withhold Shen Li's ice.

The little eunuch who delivered the ice still felt very guilty when facing Shen Li, even though Shen Li received much less ice than the others, Shen Li never vented his anger on him.This relieved the low-level eunuchs of the Shanglin Department. They didn't want to embarrass a 16-year-old boy like this, but everyone has their own embarrassment.

The weather in August is unbearably hot.The little eunuch who delivered the ice this time looked like he was only 12 years old, and his strength was also weak.The bucket of "ice" was bumped and tumbled.Shen Li frowned, the little eunuch was too scared to breathe.He was very guilty, because he was the youngest among the eunuchs who sent ice, and the one who was most easily bullied, so the work that offended people and the work that was easy to be beaten was directly assigned to him by the department.The bucket of ice looks full from the outside, but the bottom is full of pebbles, and the top is a shallow layer of ice.He has little strength and is slow to deliver the ice. The ice is almost melting before he can get there. No wonder Mr. Shen is angry.

Shen Li frowned and said: "Why don't you use a small cart? Wouldn't it save energy to bring it here with a cart?" It's not good for a child to use such strength.

The little eunuch quickly knelt on the ground, "My lord, don't be angry, of course the cart in our office won't be able to take the turn of the servant... Next time, the servant must deliver it faster, so that the adult can use the ice sooner." He was shivering, his thin body and withered yellow hair made him look even younger.

Shen Li is not used to people kneeling back and forth in the palace, but this is a palace after all, if a little eunuch like this is caught in the wrong place, he will die a miserable death, so if he wants to kneel, he can only watch He kneels down.

Shen Li finally handed a veil to the child, "Stop kneeling, get up. I don't want the ice here. Are the pebbles here clean?"

The child hurriedly said: "It's clean! My lord, the little one was afraid that the adults would smell the fishy smell of the pebbles, so I brushed them three times with a brush and scalded them with boiling water before I dared to put the pebbles in as they said. !"

Shen Li smiled, "Then you wait for me."

Such a small amount of ice is really a drop in the bucket to lower the indoor temperature, but fortunately the ice in the ice well is clean, as are the buckets and pebbles. He brought his own milkshake and tomato today, and made an iced tomato milkshake for this The little eunuch who has never tasted any sweetness will share a little.

The tomato is peeled and then mixed evenly with the milkshake, looking a little red.The milkshake has put some sugar in advance, the sour taste of the tomato, the sweetness and milky taste of the milkshake, and they are successfully neutralized together. After adding crushed ice, the taste is a little crunchy and rustling. This tomato milkshake It's a drink that tastes great and tastes great.

Shen Li handed the cool, red tomato milkshake to the little eunuch.

"Taste it, to cool off the heat." Drink it quickly, if you don't drink it, your highness will come down, and you will have nothing.

The little eunuch had been busy for a long time, and his body was drenched with sweat. The weather was so hot that he seemed to be completely evaporated.The water in his room was drunk by the big eunuch in the same bed.He didn't even have time to boil water today, and he knew he shouldn't drink this cold drink that was so sweet at first glance.

But Mr. Shen wiped his sweat and poured milk for him, which reminded him that before he entered the palace, he had an older brother in his family.That elder brother is very kind to him. Every time he works outside, he brings him delicious food and buys him new clothes during the Chinese New Year.

He still had his parents at that time, but the good times didn't last long. His parents got sick and passed away one after another, and he lived with his elder brother.My brother was carrying things at the pier, and his leg was broken by a gangster. If he didn't seek medical attention, he might die.

His family has no money, and the little money his brother saves is not enough to find a good doctor.

So he sold himself to the palace. He didn't expect that he said he wanted to make money to buy clothes for his brother, but he actually made it in this way.

As for the consistent money, the eunuch who bought him at that time was kind and gave him a lot more.Doctor Yang in the town knew his family, took the money, and promised to treat his brother's illness, so he entered the palace without any worries.

The gate of the palace was as deep as the sea, and he had been in the palace for three years, but he couldn't find a way to contact his brother.But it doesn't matter, if his brother is still alive, just wait for him to be released at the age of 30.He can still see his brother.

He took a sip of the cool, sweet tomato milkshake, but for some reason, his heart felt inexplicably sour.The sweeter the mouth, the more sour the eyes.But you can't cry in the palace, the eunuchs think it's bad luck.

This iced cold drink was really delicious, and he finished it cherishingly.She wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and then pinched both the cup and the handkerchief in her hands at a loss.

Mr. Shen is really a good person, he can't keep Mr. Shen in the dark!

"My lord! I was going to fetch ice that day, and I heard that someone was going to punish you deliberately! It was the Fan family! It was said that a young man was demoted to Lingnan, and the Neibingzhang Fushi of the Shanglin Office was a relative of the Fan family, in order to please the Fan family. , that's what happened to you!"

Shen Li patted his head, "Okay, when you bring the ice in the future, be smart, don't put pebbles, it's the same if you put some grass under it, anyway, I don't plan to use this ice anymore. Don't worry about other things. , I know it in my heart."

He can use saltpeter to make ice, the ice doesn't matter, it's just ice, wouldn't he know how to do it?

To his surprise, the price of saltpeter in the capital is not expensive, and it may be more economical than building a deep cellar to store ice in winter.

The palace uses a huge amount of ice, and the cost is also high.All of them are transported by special areas, which cost manpower and material resources, and put them in the royal deep cellars and ice wells.Therefore, the ice fee in the palace is extremely high, if the emperor is willing to buy his ice...

Shen Li felt that maybe he could try the business of the palace.However, it is of course unrealistic to discuss business with the emperor rashly.

Shizi doesn't care about Bing's business, besides, Shizi is busy with affairs recently, so he can't take care of these.

Shen Li felt that his father was not suitable for the ice business, because his mother still needed his father's care, and Shen Yan was still young and his strength was limited.After much deliberation, he still only thought of one person who could help him, and that was Eunuch Pang, who was the first to deal with Shen Li.

Eunuch Pang is now in the palace, and he is living like a fish in water. The connection between them has always been there.In addition to the ice-making business, the Eucommia tree business was also led by eunuch Pang the year before last, opening up the market in the capital.

In this way, on the surface, it seems to be Shizi's business, but it is actually his business.He will not treat his son badly, and will give dividends every year.The prince also let him talk about the tiger's skin, Shen Li is very grateful.The reason why bicycles and tricycles sell so well in the capital is because Shi Zi escorted them behind.

In addition, the eldest princess sold the rubber produced by her own eucommia tree to Eunuch Pang, which greatly saved the travel expenses. It can be said that the bicycles, tricycles, and medicinal materials made of eucommia in the capital can form a self-contained system, and there is no need to buy them from other sources. The place enters the raw material.

It's easy to talk about business matters, but he has to deal with those people in the palace who think they will cause trouble to him.Otherwise, some people will think that he is easy to bully, like a fly, circling around him endlessly.

Wen Bohe has been busy with meeting the envoys of Chen Guo recently.Although His Majesty has many princes, whenever something like this happens, the emperor will bring out Wen Bohe.

Emperor Xuan sat casually on a bed and sighed: "If King An hadn't given birth to a good son, I don't even know who to turn to."

"Your Majesty is just joking. Your Majesty's princes and courtiers are all talented people. How could Your Majesty not know who to turn to?" the supervisor said cautiously.

Emperor Xuan snorted coldly, "Chen Guo, the wolf is ambitious, and stares at Dazhao. But they dare not attack rashly, so they have to choose to send envoys to come to my court to find out the truth."

"Be careful..."

Wen Bohe took the lead, but he didn't think now was the most suitable time.Dazhao has recuperated all these years, and he finally got a respite. He has to wait another ten years before he has the strength to defeat the opponent.

Unless there is a winning weapon.However, the winning weapon is not so easy to get.The horses of Chen Guo are stronger than Jokha, and Tubo also has trade with Chen Guo.

Wen Bohe approached Shen Li and asked, "You made an appointment with Tubo to exchange iron-smelting technology. How did it go?"

Shen Li took out the blueprint: "They gave this one. But I think it can be improved. It is no problem to produce two hundred catties of iron in one furnace! Also, our iron is based on the previous practice. After making it, it will be a little brittle, but the new iron smelting technology can only remove impurities and make more durable ironware!"

"Then I'll use your method first to produce a batch of weapons, otherwise Chen Guo will stare at us, and we will be hurt."

Shen Li said clearly: "If you need my help, just ask. I can't do anything else, but I'm a bit good at bluffing people."

Wen Bohe immediately said: "That's really great, I'm going to ask the officials to leave now, these days, you can work hard with me!"

Shen Li has nothing else to do, just wait for the ice to be made, connect with the palace, take over the ice making affairs of the palace, and rectify the current ice service in the palace.

Wen Bohe went to the Ministry of Officials to find Shen Li. He saw that the ice Shen Li used was made by himself. After discussing the matter, he sneered and beat the staff of the seventh-rank official surnamed Fan who was in charge of ice affairs three times. Ten boards.

After all, he is still an inspector, and he can barely manage the affairs of the palace.

The little official dared not speak out, seeing that the subordinate officials who were usually bullied by him were elated.

Wen Bohe said angrily: "You are being bullied, why didn't you tell me? Are you going to have a life with me?"

Shen Li waved his hand and said: "Brother Wen, please be safe and don't be impatient. After a while, these people will all have to go home. Why should you be angry for someone like him? Besides, I haven't suffered any grievances..."

Wen Bohe sneered when he heard the words: "I think that the Ministry of Officials is not suitable for you. Why don't you go to my palace to be a senior official? The official rank is not high, but no one dares to underestimate you." This is dissatisfaction with Han Yun Meaning.

Only Wen Bohe knew how angry he was when he saw Shen Li being secretly bullied.

Tian Zhong, who was going to discuss matters with Shen Li outside the gate of the Qing Officials, said, "..." Hey, Brother Han, if you plan to release Shen Li, Shen Tong will really be snatched away!

The author has something to say: It may be too early for Shen Li to leave the capital.

Infrastructure must be built, but you have to wait for a great achievement, and then take your time.
