Chapter 83

Su Chen finally understood that the sense of ritual engraved in the bones of Chinese people would never change.

In ancient times, the sense of ritual is all kinds of worship, to prove the sincerity, to start various activities.In modern times, a sense of ritual is a spiritual need. With a sense of ritual, you will be more energetic in what you do next.

But he had only come to Daqin not long ago, and he didn't know much about divination, so he found an excuse of "not being familiar with Xianyang City" and asked Fusu to help him find a fortuneteller.It seems that in the future, when a paper mill is built or started, it will be necessary to find a fortune teller.

Fu Su went to find a fortune teller, and Su Chen suddenly thought of something, what would he do if the fortune teller did not start construction until one year or three years later?Can I find another fortune teller for divination?Will you be scolded?

Fortunately, Su Chen thought too much, and the fortune teller predicted that the ground would be broken tomorrow.Isn't it really the result of the fact that he just paid a piece of gold for the fortune teller that it suits him so well?
Did you say that our ancient ancestors were all honest?

Su Chen felt that she was cheated, not only financially, but more importantly, spiritually.

However, the ancestors in this period were easily bewitched by strange powers and gods, so if this fortune-teller was so easy to be bribed, wouldn't it be just right for them to use it?Whatever outcome he wanted to divination, he could divination any outcome.

He doesn't have to worry about the start of the paper mill.

At this moment, Su Li came to look for him.

Su Li just came back from the outside, facing the scorching sun, his face was blackened.

He bowed to Su Chen and Fu Su and said, "Sir, the address of the paper mill has been found. When can you go and have a look?"

Su Chen thought about it, anyway, the fortune teller hasn't left yet, why don't we take a look at the land together, and if he's satisfied, let the fortune teller tell the time of the construction, so that he can find someone later.

So he said to Su Li, "Let's go today. You go down to rest first, and then go back in an hour."

Su Li was stunned for a moment and said, "Sir, I'm not tired. You can run back and forth one more time."

Su Chen: This is a beautiful misunderstanding.I just don't want to go out in the bright sun.In fact, the ancestors of the Qin Dynasty were still very honest.

He said to Su Li: "You go down first, I haven't finished dealing with the matter here. It will probably take an hour."

Su Li knew that he had misunderstood, and his dark face turned a little red.

Su Chen: Oh, it turns out that ancient people were also embarrassed.

Su Li said "hey", took three steps back and left.

Su Chen said to the fortune teller, "Master, why don't you look at the ground with us? I would also like to ask the master to help me predict the future again."

After saying this, he signaled to the attendant next to him, and the attendant immediately took out a piece of gold and handed it to the fortune teller.

Fortune Teller: Another piece?I didn’t want to come at first, but I was embarrassed not to come when someone pushed me in front of Fusu. I didn’t expect that I would be lucky!Earned two pieces of gold at once!

Although I wish I could go home immediately and show my wife the gold, due to my status as a master, I still have to be as profound as I should be.

He held the gold in his hand calmly, and smiled slightly: "At your command."

Duan looked like a worldly expert, and even the well-informed Su Chen had to admit that he had been deceived at this moment.

An hour later, the sun was setting to the west, and the air was still warm, but at least there was no direct sunlight. Su Chen went out with a big bamboo tube filled with smoothie juice.

There were no sun umbrellas at this time, and Su Chen couldn't break the rules, so he could only go out during the day and "at night".

The group arrived at their destination in a carriage.It was indeed on the edge of the moat and downstream of the moat. The water source would not be affected during papermaking. Su Chen was very satisfied with this.As for whether the upstream water will affect papermaking, Su Chen is not worried at all.Today's domestic water is basically pollution-free, and it will not be affected even if you want to.

And there are not many people who really use the river water.

Moreover, the area was larger than what Su Chen wanted, and the ground was flat, which saved him a lot of work.I just don't know whether the foundation is stable or not. Fortunately, Fusu said that the foreman can find someone to find out.In this era, although Su Chen is a science student, he has no tools, and he can't figure out many things. He can only rely on the locals to use their own methods.

Su Chen was very satisfied with the place Su Li found, and the fortune teller immediately started working after seeing it.The result of divination is that the place is good, and the construction start time is only a few days away.

Su Chen nodded, yes, the money was not wasted.

It seemed that with the speech of the fortune-teller, Fusu's spirits rose a lot, and even Suli's black face had a happy smile, which was very different from the previous silent image.

Fu Su happily took over the job of finding a foreman, and stole all of Su Li's work.Su Chen was naturally happy. It was easier and better quality for the prince to find a foreman than for a minister like him.

After the divination was over, there was nothing to do. Su Chen returned with a group of people. Su Li stayed behind to communicate with the people about the boundary, and buried a few corners with stones for marking.

Back at Su’s house, as night fell, Fusu was still in high spirits, and even specially found Ying Yinman, and shared today’s good news with Ying Yinman: I found the food court and the site for the paper mill, and the fortune teller also said that Both pieces of land are Feng Shui treasures.

Naturally, Ying Yinman was also happy for her husband, what could Su Chen do seeing the two brothers and sisters so happy?Let's celebrate deliciously.Fortunately, the system is feeding prawns today, and there are quite a few of them.

He ordered garlic, ginger, lemons, tofu, lentils, etc. to be brought out of the cellar.These are fed to him by the system, and the rest.They are all placed in a freezer made of real ice cubes, which is very fresh.

Today he is going to cook potato stewed pork ribs, spicy tofu, lemon shrimp, fried three delicacies, and tomato and egg soup in a clay pot.

When he ordered someone to get something from the cellar, Fusu and Ying Yinman looked at each other and smiled, with a hint of cunning in their eyes.After such a long time, they knew that Su Chen was a person who wanted to "celebrate" when he was a little happy. This "celebration" was to eat and drink delicious food.

Recently, I am tired of eating the cold noodle, simmered noodles, fried potatoes with sliced ​​meat, etc. made by the attendants. I am looking forward to a good day and a good meal!

In the past, if Su Chen cooked these dishes by himself, it would take about an hour and a half, but now there are attendants who immediately blanch the ribs, and at the same time there are attendants who scrape the potato skins, wash the vegetables, and cut the tofu, so Su Chen only needs to sit On the side, just go to the shrimp line with two attendants.

In the past, Su Chen didn't like to ask his attendants to come over to help, but he always responded to his call, and several people wanted to rush to do a job, which delayed their own work, so they had to work overtime at night.Su Chen thought they were trying to curry favor with him because of his status as a slave owner, and felt guilty in his heart.
