The Master of the Kingdom

Recently, Qingzhou has been overwhelmed by myths and legends.

For Su Yi, Qingzhou has been overwhelmed by rumors recently.

Su Tianshi suddenly leaped into the sky and got up with golden light, his eyes lightly closed, and he pointed to Balabala. All deified legends start with this sentence pattern.

In folklore, Master Su seems to have the power of moving mountains and reclaiming the sea, so that the people of Qingzhou Prefecture, like the people of Beijing when Su Yi just showed "magic powers", began to secretly bow to Cishi Palace. .

Fortunately, I had already experienced it once in Beijing, and Mu Yan was familiar with this kind of thing. After a few prohibitions and explanations, there were no people who bowed down, but Su Yi's reputation has also improved.

An immortal who doesn't care or even likes the people's worship and worship is different from all monks, and even the hidden people have to sigh with emotion. Although Master Su is in the world and doing many things that are beneficial to the people of the world, for Master Su, he is still outside the world. What he did was only he was willing, just for the idea in his heart. He did these things, and even paid a great price, not for fame or profit or even accepting the gratitude and respect of others. He just chose to do it simply, from his own heart, and choose to do so.

Compared with Su Yi, those who are in seclusion have fallen behind.

Recluse, it can be said that it is not fame and fortune, but it also means to escape. The so-called small hidden in the wild, but so.

Xiaoyin hides in the wild, the middle hides in the city, and the big hides in the dynasty. Those who live in seclusion in the mountains and old forests can only rely on the external environment to achieve their expectations of not being disturbed by the outside world. However, since they borrow the external environment, it shows that they can only achieve inner peace by relying on the peace of the external environment. This kind of peace is obviously not real peace, but just self-deception.

Hidden in the city, people with a real strong mind will not be disturbed by the environment. They live the same lives as the world. From the outside, they are no different from ordinary people. They wander in the busy market. They are not pretending to be noble, but their hearts are calm and they have a sense of returning to the basics.

As for the people of Dayin, they enter the dynasty as officials, maintain their inner ideals, act well, but do nothing in their hearts. This means that what they do may be affected by the common people and have a far-reaching impact. But they are not interested in fame and wealth, but just follow their inner will. They are indifferent to all praise or slander, no matter how others think of them, the people of Da Yin are as leisurely and contented as ever.

Isn't Su Tianshi the true hermit of the great hidden principle?

In the eyes of outsiders, Master Su Tian is well-known and respected by the whole country. But as far as Master Su Tian is concerned, there is no change in words and deeds from beginning to end. He lives in his own Tianshi Mansion and wants to relax on a whim, and it doesn't matter if he lives in the governor's mansion as a guest clerk. He can show off in front of others, discuss the truth with others, and overwhelm the crowd; he can also thank guests behind closed doors and feel comfortable at home alone.

When the name of Su Tianshi came from the capital, Qingzhou was only in awe of the name of Su Tianshi for a powerful person. Although he heard a lot of rumors, but did not see it with his own eyes, there was always a hint of disapproval in his heart. meaning.

And now, Master Su Tian hasn't really appeared in front of the people of Qingzhou, and he doesn't have to give up his reputation compared to being in the capital.

With a few folklore and the emotions of a few celebrities, the fire that ignited Su Yi's reputation in the capital was instantly out of control.

In this regard, Su Yi just wanted to say, what? What are you talking about?

Da Yin is hidden in the direction or something, does it have anything to do with him?

"But your actual behavior is indeed the case." Mu Yan said, "So it can't be regarded as wrong."

Su Yi frowned: "Really? I didn't find it."

Mu Yan sighed: "It is because you are ignorant of this that you can better reflect your true heart, right?"

In this regard, Su Yi could only haha. Original mind? What is the heart? An immortal heart of rice worms?

Anyway, I just don't want to make progress, I'm super afraid of trouble, and I don't want to communicate too much with people. In the past, it was in exchange for the rice worm to live as a last resort, and he had to behave well in front of the elders and big bosses. Now he has the confidence, he is a little willful, and he can live as he pleases.

What fame and fortune, what kind of scenery, in front of the house, are all headaches in socializing.

"Okay, don't mention this." Su Yi said, "I'm finally going to start drying salt. I hope the weather is good recently."

The biggest influencing factor of this sun-dried salt is the environment. But even so, the output is much larger than if you set up a small pot to boil salt.

"More than that." Mu Yan said, "The glass is made, do you want to check it out?"

Su Yi did not interfere with the glass and shipbuilding matters. He gave the drawing, talked about how to manage the craftsman, and then focused all of his attention on drying the salt.

Su Yi didn't care about everything that could be done by others, including the cultivation of corn and fruit trees, which was also handed over to the officials of Sinongqing. Only the salt drying involved too many advanced things for this dynasty, so Su Yi had to preside over it himself.

However, it was too advanced and incomprehensible, so so many myths and legends were derived.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Mu Yan said that glass has been manufactured. Although Su Yi is used to seeing glass products, he still has some interest. He wants to see what level of glass manufacturing is now compared to the craftsmanship of later generations.

After Su Yi came to the glass workshop, he saw the newly manufactured glass. To be honest, he was not very satisfied.

The color of this glass is a bit turbid, the color is mottled, and there are large and small bubbles inside, and it can only be used to make small utensils. In the eyes of modern people, these appliances are estimated to have a natural beauty. But from the technical point of view, the technology is rudimentary.

Mu Yan was originally amazed by the crystal-like utensils fired out, but seeing Su Yi frowned, he swallowed the words of praise.

Seeing Su Yi quickly summoning the craftsmen to inquire about the process of making glass carefully, and then let them demonstrate on the spot, and teach them step by step, Mu Yan thought, fortunately, he didn't say what he said, otherwise it would appear that he was too insightful. NS.

Su Yi was obviously very dissatisfied with this batch of things. He made it bluntly and crudely, but he regarded it as a treasure. Isn't it ignorant?

However, Mu Yan had a deeper confidence that these things could be sold for a lot of money. As Su Yi said, information and technology are not equal. In my own eyes, shoddy things may be fine products in the eyes of others.

Just like the glassware that Su Yi couldn’t look down on, it seemed to Mu Yan that it was amazing. For those overseas who had never seen or rarely seen the items produced by China, the crude and shoddy porcelain he looked down upon might be Is it also a treasure that you are willing to exchange for a lot of treasures?

Loading the defective products of the official kilns and selling them overseas in exchange for a large amount of gold and silver to fill the national treasury seems to be a step that is not a risky move.

Thanks to Su Yi's personal improvement, the glass products that came out are much better than before. More importantly, these craftsmen have figured out how to improve the quality of the glass based on Su Yi's guidance.

According to traditional craftsmanship, these defective products should be smashed. However, Mu Yan was influenced by Su Yi and wanted to maximize his profit, so he was taken away from the glass products and prepared to sell them directly.

When Mu Yan came to Qingzhou as a governor, he not only bought the Zhuangzi’s house, but also bought everything. Not to mention that people in this era did not actually discriminate against merchants. Even in the later period of feudalism, officials would collude with merchants, because gold and silver are too useful, and that little salary is really not enough.

Although land is the foundation, necessary business is a reliable source of gold and silver. Although they will not expand their business, they must have it in order to ensure the continuous inflow of gold and silver.

Although Mu Yan opened a shop, no one would be embarrassed by his deterrence. But the business has long been carved up by the rich and powerful people entrenched in the area. The business of Mu Yan's shop is just plain, starving.

After all, the shops at this time, only those that can sell.

Mu Yan was originally going to wait for the salt to come out and seize the market by selling salt. Now maybe he can try selling glass.

Su Yi looked weird and watched Mu Yan let people count the first batch of glass products manufactured, not even letting go of broken glass shards.

Forget about the shoddy glassware, it's just a rare thing to sell. But those fragments are also collected, isn't it a bit...too bad?

Mu Yan smiled silently.

Then Su Yi saw the exquisite craftsmanship of ancient craftsmen.

Those broken glass shards were polished into various gems and embedded in gold and silver, and the grade was greatly improved in an instant.

Because the current gem polishing process is just like that, and pure gems are even rarer. The "jewels" polished by those glass shards are a bit brighter than real gems.

This reminded Su Yi of something, "Rhinestone."

Everyone knows what the so-called rhinestone is, so there is no need to say more. Su Yi hesitated, and finally defeated the already weak moral concept in his heart, and finally embarked on the road of no return to selling fakes, and enthusiastically told the craftsman about the relevant theories of rhinestone cutting.

Swarovski was the first to discover that glass, like other gemstones, can show excellent brilliance by concentrating the light on the facets, and then derived the "diamond cutting" technology. The more facets, the more brilliant the gemstone. In the end all gems will be processed in this way.

The maximum number of facets that can be cut is naturally different due to the hardness of the stone and the skill of the craftsman. After the face is cut, the brilliance of the gem is also closely related to the texture of the gem itself.

However, just like ordinary people seeing the mixed rhinestones and real diamonds at first glance, they must not be able to distinguish the two. The glass fragments that failed to be processed are more brilliant than traditional gemstones after being cut.

Today's gems are mostly made into a spherical or drop shape, and even in other shapes, they have a smooth surface. This is the traditional Chinese aesthetic. From a traditional point of view, it is indeed that the smoother the light, the more the light.

So when Su Yi said about cutting, the craftsman still hesitated. But hesitated to hesitate, he would definitely do it, and after doing so, he once again deeply admired Su Yi.

Su Tianshi has vast magical powers and is omnipotent. This view is once again deeply imprinted in the hearts of craftsmen.

Mu Yan was also joking, even Su Yi is a master of jewelry making, what can Su Yi not know?

Su Yi snorted coldly: "Others don't know, can you still know? I will tell you only if I have seen it."

Mu Yan sighed: "Some of the worlds you see are shattered, and some are more prosperous than they are now."

Su Yi said: "That is nature. From heaven to earth, it is omnipotent, and even this earth cannot restrain mankind's footsteps."

Su Yi looked proud, with one hand behind him and the other pointing at the starry sky, saying: "Now, your journey is the sea. In the future, our journey is the sea of ​​stars."

Mu Yan followed Su Yi's fingers and looked up at the starry sky. The starry sky has always been called the realm of gods. Legend has it that there are gods inhabiting every star. In the future, as a human being, is it possible to set foot on the stars?

"I don't believe it, it's just unimaginable." Mu Yan also stretched out his hand, facing the crescent moon, and said, "Is there a fairy on the moon? Is there a fairy palace?"

Su Yi said: "No."

Mu Yan said: "If human beings boarded the moon and other stars and found that the gods do not exist, would they still believe in the gods?"

Su Yi tilted his head and thought, and said, "Yes. Because the more you know, the more the unknown. Some people want to explore the unknown, and some fear the unknown, and attribute the unknown to ghosts and gods. The fear of the unknown is human beings. Instinct. Many people can’t beat their own instincts, so religion or something will always exist."

"Compared with exploring the unknown on your own, or even making unimaginable hardships, isn't it easier to believe that a grand consciousness affects everything?" Su Yi sighed, "Isn't it easier to beg for gifts from others than to work **** my own? "

"Not necessarily for nothing, but also for higher ideals such as fairness and justice." Su Yi remembered the Buddhism that had spread to the Central Plains and the trade after the customs of the Central Plains were changed.

Do not cultivate this life and cultivate the afterlife.

Although this life does not necessarily repay the rebirth of good and evil in this life, doing evil in this life for good will always be fulfilled in the next life.

Not only Buddhism, most primitive religions and folk beliefs in China are always inseparable from karma.

Karma is not necessarily true, but everyone is more willing to believe that it is true.

Because the retribution of good and evil is only in terms of human beings, it is often too difficult. For example, if a tyrant is aggressive and aggressive, it takes many, many lives to overthrow a tyrant, and not everyone dares to rise up. The people are more willing to beg God to come and smash the tyrant to death.

Su Yi smiled to Mu Yan and said, "So Heqing, there are so many incomprehensible things and injustices in the world, what are you going to do?"

"Exhaust what you can." Mu Yan said, "Anyway, I don't always pray for others to let me enlighten myself."

Su Yi laughed: "That's true."

Mu Yan said, "You are really a bit superior today."

Su Yi said: "If I know what I know, I might really be a superior person in the world. Because I stand taller than you and see farther than you. I am not as tall as you, but I stand on the shoulders of giants. ."

After thousands of years of accumulation, the traverser still has an advantage. Although there is no difference between a single-round individual and a local inhabitant in terms of personal abilities, it will do whatever it takes. But in terms of vision and knowledge, there is indeed a world of difference.

Mu Yan said: "I have the heart to talk to you again. Speaking of which, didn't you say that it is possible for me to see the real moon?"

Su Yi said: "After the glass process is improved, there is a real chance."

Su Yi suddenly gave a high-five and said, "Oh, I thought about it."

Mu Yan asked, "What did you think of?"

Su Yi said: "Are you saying that I still have to show up to meet those wealthy celebrities? I'm still thinking about how to shock them. I can ask them to watch the moon. I don't think it's more shocking than this."

It was expected that Mu Yan could not help being dumbfounded. For the ancients, Su Yi's words were too shocking.

Although Mu Yan knew that Su Yi could do it, he still couldn't help but feel excited.

After a long while, Mu Yan shook his head and said: "If this matter reaches the middle of Beijing, surely those old guys will run to your majesty to cry every day."

It was agreed that Yiqin would make friends, but Su Yi came to Qingzhou and stopped.

After arriving in Qingzhou, Su Yi showed the great ability of "making the earth out of thin air". He invited everyone to listen to the piano, and now he also invites people to see the real moon. How can the family in the capital be tolerated by such a delicacy that the local buns in Qingzhou are cheap?

Even if it is a wealthy family, the grades are different. Although the clan originated from the local area, it is well known that only the wealthy clan who have a firm foothold in the capital dare to call themselves "the clan."

Beijing is the place where the families gather. Except for a few families, such as the Confucian family, the rest will go to the capital once they have the ability. Although entrenched as a local emperor is also very free, but without entering the center of the imperial court, there is no way to get rid of the word "earth".

The magic of Su Tianshi is not as good as the Qingzhou wealthy family. The Jingzhong family must be very depressed.

Although it was to prevent Master Su from going to northern Xinjiang, they made the worst plan to let Master Su leave the capital, and they feared and respected Su Yi, and would not do anything to imprison Su Yi's freedom, but the depression in their hearts was indispensable.

"Oh, if they like it, I'll just send the design to your majesty." Su Yi said, "as long as they are not stupid to look at the sun. That will burn the eyes."

"Isn't the moon also light?" Mu Yan curiously asked, "Why the light of the moon doesn't burn the eyes."

"Because the moon is reflected sunlight, it does not emit light." Su Yi explained to Mu Yan the relationship between the moon, the earth and the sun, and by the way, the astronomical phenomenon of the Tiangu eclipse moon and the Tiangu eclipse sun. Scientific truth.

Mu Yan was amazed. Tengu eclipse moon and tengu eclipse day are both extremely ominous in this era. Every time it appears, it will cause the government and the opposition to shake up and down, and the king will definitely go up to the altar to pray. Regardless of whether it is wrong, he will sin against himself.

In the end, this is just...explainable?

"It's not just this, the comet is also." Su Yi said, "In the world, every time a comet comes to the world, there must be a catastrophe in the world. In fact, it is just the orbit of the comet. The comet is named after a person and becomes Halley's comet. Every seventy-six one year, it will come to the vicinity of the earth and be observed by humans. So any catastrophe is fake, and it will definitely appear in more than seventy years."

Mu Yan took a deep breath and said, "If you say this, I have much less respect for the world."

Su Yi said: "So I am not saying that the more you understand, the less things you feared before. But human beings will not stop being in awe because of this. The more you know, the more mysteries you don’t know, humans It will only be more in awe."

"For example, when mankind has not set foot in the entire China, people outside the Central Plains are in awe. After the Central Plains are known to others, people abroad are in awe. When the entire earth is controlled by people, the sky full of stars is in awe. Now. The solar system, the galaxy, the universe, what's beyond the universe?" Su Yi sighed, "Unfortunately I am stuck here, but I can't see it anymore."

When he left, modern technology was still developing rapidly. Our UOB spacecraft has been launched many times, and the moon landing plan is proceeding steadily.

During his lifetime, China can also land on the moon, Mars, or other planets. The detection machines of the earth countries will surely be able to send back more data on other planets and planets outside the solar system.

The earth can no longer satisfy human beings' exploration, and the journey of mankind has been extended to the sea of ​​stars.

Unfortunately, he couldn't see it anymore.

No matter how carefree in this era, Su Yi still misses the original era uncontrollably. Not only is his initial memory of that era and his relatives in that era, but more importantly, he recognizes that era.

That era was more open-minded, and that era had more supplies, and that era had greater possibilities and more mysteries, which made people deeply fascinated.

What can you do in this era? Even though he has so many achievements, he is respected as a heavenly master by everyone, and he has created many myths and legends. But as far as Su Yi himself is concerned, these are very superficial knowledge, and they are all common things in his time.

If he is greedy for fame and fortune, it would be good to use these things that most people in modern times know to fudge the glory and wealth. But he is really not interested in fame and wealth. He is a technical nerd, he is only interested in technology.

Maybe his experiments are not very productive, but he just likes to explore and research, like every scientific experiment to be shaped in his hands to verify every theory.

However, now he can only do some of the most superficial experiments, not so much technical, as nostalgic.

He can't study, he can only repeat.

For the technical house, in ancient times, there is really nothing attractive.

"What's more..." Su Yi whispered to herself, "Even the emperor and wealthy family in this world can't live better than the well-off homes of later generations."

TV, computer, electric light, air conditioner, refrigerator, electric water heater, etc... How can the convenience of modern life be imagined by the ancients?
