Chapter Nineteen Wei Zhen

Immortal cultivation is said to be both mysterious and mysterious. Of course, it is indeed mysterious and mysterious.

But Xuanzhi and Xuanzhong are closely related to everything in this world.

Cultivation also has principles that belong to the system itself and are consistent with the movement of heaven and earth. Only when you understand the principles can you know how to practice.

And this truth comes from heaven and earth.

Whether it is a heretic or a side sect, since it exists, it has its reason. And by analogy, it will naturally promote Zhao Yu's cultivation.

Of course, this is not the key point.

Zhao Yu understands the principles of cultivation, and a little analogy is not that important. What really matters about some of his current actions is not the results, but the process.

This is the process of human development.

What he does will first have an impact on people, whether it is Wang Po at home, Xiaochun Xiaoqiu, Cao Mengde, Dian Wei, Baili Shi, Zhang Wang, Wang Tian, ​​or even everyone in this Zhuangzi. They are all affected by his behavior.

Cao Mengde awakened his heroic heart in advance, and Dian Wei may have lost a few years of trembling in his life. Without Zhao Yu, Wang Po may have been ruined long ago, and whether Xiaochun Xiaoqiu can survive is also a question mark. The three people from Baili Division may die or find another master. There is no trace of smile on the sallow faces of the tenants in Zhuangzi, the craftsmen and young men recruited.

Human behavior affects people, and through these people, affects humanity.

Human beings are part of humanity, the foundation, and absolutely indispensable. Humanity in the narrow sense refers to the principles in the development process of people and their behaviors and thoughts.

In the illusion of Tian Yanjing, Zhao Yu placed himself in the position of an immortal. In the eyes of an immortal, humanity is more than just human principles. In the eyes of immortals, humanity is the truth for all living beings. But now, he is a human being, so his humanity is human truth.

You have to sit in a human seat to think and experience. Instead of thinking and experiencing from the perspective of an ant or a dog.

Starting from behavior, the seven emotions and six desires affect people, and then affect the entire human society, causing drastic changes in human nature. And this process is the process of experiencing humanity and completing it.

Humanity is part of the universe, and changes in humanity will have an impact on the universe. In history, to influence and change humanity, time and space will be turbulent.

So Zhao Yu has become more aware of all this.

Because he is not an immortal yet, but exists as a human being. In the process of his actions, he combines his own principles with the principles of humanity, and his actions are impressive.

He tries to avoid using magic, but doesn't insist on it when the need arises.

For example, when manufacturing these machines, some tiny parts are difficult to create with current productivity and technology, so mana comes in handy.

Mana is the most microcosmic and macroscopic existence. Mana is boundless and can open up the world. You can also start from the fundamentals of matter and turn a stone into iron. Of course, Zhao Yu is still not able to turn stone into gold, let alone create a new world. But it can create any delicate parts through the subtle control of mana.

However, he doesn't use this ability often. Even after using it, I will consider how to use the current productivity to make it possible for ordinary craftsmen to manufacture it.

The framework of Zhaojiazhuang has taken shape, but it is just a framework. Zhao Yu led the craftsmen to build the earth kiln in order to perfect Zhuangzi.

What is the purpose of building a clay kiln?

Burn cement.

Like glass and soap, cement is often an indispensable item in novels when traveling to the ancient world. Because the technology for firing cement is not very demanding. As long as you understand the technology, low productivity is not a problem.

Zhaojiazhuang is Zhao Yu's laboratory, a test field for super crops, a steel forging workshop, and a test site for various machinery manufacturing. Whenever he has an idea, he will realize it here.

Therefore, Zhao Yu plans to make this place more reasonable and solid.

Cement is the first step.

But when the cement kiln was built, Zhao Yu was blinded.

No money.

Three hundred thousand dollars is not too much, but certainly not too little. But it was used up in less than a month, which shows that Zhao Yu's footsteps are indeed a bit big.

"No money?"

When Dian Wei said that he had lost all his money, Zhao Yu jumped up and slapped Dian Wei on the head: "Couldn't you have told me a few days earlier?!"

Dian Wei looked aggrieved—you didn’t say anything.

It is indeed too reluctant to let a warrior like him take care of such trivial matters. Even though Dian Wei has learned a lot of mathematical calculations, he is essentially a rough man.

"There is a Wei family's shop in Puyang." Zhao Yu knew that being angry with such a rough man was simply asking for trouble, so he said directly: "Go to the Wei family's shop immediately and ask Wei Zhen to send one million dollars."

"That's right." Zhao Yu said again: "I want a large amount of limestone, iron ore, gypsum... In this case, you ask the people in Wei's shop to send a message, asking Wei Zhen to come over, and I will tell him personally. "

"oh."

When Wei Zhen stood in front of Zhao Yu, it was already six days later.

The Xia people's efforts to expand their living space had actually stalled during the Han Dynasty. What's the reason? In addition to the gradual formation of ideological confinement, the biggest reason lies in transportation. For example, now, if something happens in Jiaozhou, a year may have passed by the time Luoyang, Chang'an knows the news.

The inconvenience of transportation and communication made it more difficult to rule the larger the dynasty's territory.

Therefore, the rulers of the past dynasties could only stop at the scope that they could rule. They often fought against the surrounding barbarians and seized large tracts of land, which were eventually discarded. It's not that they are stupid, it's that they have no choice. Traffic and communication barriers play an important role in this.

Of course, that's not what I'm talking about here.

But transportation and communication are indeed a big problem.

Wei Zhen went to Jizhou before and had business dealings with the Zhen family of Zhongshan Wuji in Yecheng, which was actually not far from Puyang and faced each other across the river. But four days had passed when the news reached Wei Zhen's ears through the Wei family store in Puyang.

By the time he rushed to Puyang without stopping, it was already the sixth day.

Wei Zhen knows Zhao Yu and is very clear about his position in Cao Mengde's mind. He even knows that the two products he is currently selling are both made by Mr. Zhao - Wei Zhen has worshiped Cao Mengde as his master, otherwise With Wei Zi’s legacy alone, Cao Mengde would not hand over economic power to him so easily.

Cao Mengde has specifically stated that as long as Mr. Zhao needs something, he will do his best to satisfy it.

So he didn't dare to neglect at all.

Following Dian Wei, Wei Zhen walked all the way through Zhaojiazhuang, scanning some novel places with his eyes, and occasionally asked Dian Wei. Finally, he met Zhao Yu under the earthen kiln in the backyard of Zhao Yu's house adjacent to the river bank.

Zhao Yu was wearing a short coat with his sleeves rolled up, and he was no different from a craftsman or farmer. There was a lot of dust on the clothes, but the skin on the face was very clean, giving people a very strange feeling.

Zhao Yu has practiced so far. Although he has just stepped onto the threshold of the immortal path, his strength is so round and subtle that even a speck of dust, let alone a feather, cannot fall on him. The skin will react naturally, vibrate vigorously, and no dust can get on it.

Even clothes can actually be kept free of dust, as long as Zhao Yu vibrates with strength.

But it’s not necessary, right?

He's not mysophobic.

Although I have no money, I still have to do the work that needs to be done.

The artisan tenants had no requirements, as long as they had enough to eat. I had stocked up on some food before, but it was enough for the time being. So nothing stops in Zhuangzi.

After several days of hard work and several previous failures, this time, decent cement was finally fired.

In fact, without any foundation, making any product requires a lot of experiments. But Zhao Yu can cheat here. With his sensitive soul and subtle magic power, he figured out the best formula for cement in just a few experiments.

He had read many books and knew the rough recipe of cement. But in fact, even in modern society, ordinary information, whether it is glass or cement, only states what materials are needed, but there is absolutely no specific ratio.

This requires experimentation.

The cement came out of the kiln and the craftsmen were testing it. Zhao Yu was watching and Wei Zhen arrived.

"I've met Mr. Zhao!"

Zhao Yu saw it and recognized it.

When Cao Mengde called Wei Zhen to Zhongmou, he met Zhao Yu.

"Just come." Zhao Yu pulled him to the side without saying a word: "First prepare one million dollars for me and deliver it immediately. Secondly, take this."

As he spoke, Zhao Yu turned out a piece of silk in his hand.

Zhao Yu did not explain: "These are all the things I need. I gave the approximate proportion of how much I need. Just help me collect it. For things like iron ore and limestone, it is best to open the mine yourself. How to make it cost-effective? You He is a good player, no need for me to say more.”

Zhao Yu crackled for a while, and Wei Zhen was stunned for a while.

"This silk cloth is too troublesome. Next time you come, I can make paper."

After saying that, he put the silk cloth into Wei Zhen's hand and Zhao Yu ignored him.

Although Wei Zhen was young, he was very tactful and mature. He also knew Zhao Yu's status and did not dare to get angry. He caught up and said, "Mr. Zhao, I still have something to say."

Zhao Yu turned around: "Say quickly, I'm busy."

Wei Zhen said: "When I came here, I saw the waterwheel in the farmland in the village. I asked Brother Dianwei about it. I think it should be a very good thing. If it is sold, it will definitely make a huge profit..."

When Zhao Yu heard this, he laughed: "You are really discerning."

Then he said: "But you can't ask me about this, you have to ask Brother Meng De."

Wei Zhen was stunned, as if he thought of something, his expression moved slightly, and he said: "I know, Mr. Zhao. I will prepare what you want soon, and one million dollars can be delivered at any time."

"Okay, I'm very busy, so I won't entertain you. Let's talk about it next time." Zhao Yu said, "I'll ask Dian Wei to bring the money back with you."

Just like that, Wei Zhen and Dian Wei were sent away.
