Live as the emperor

Chapter 272

"Difficult." Although he is the person who knows the most about steel and is the most skilled person in the military prison, Ah Fu still has no way to be confident when facing this small iron pot.

It is not difficult to make a piece of iron. The problem is that you have to have a curvature.

It is unbelievable that the difficulty of making an iron pot has surpassed the technical peak of the most powerful iron maker in the country.

But this is the truth, sometimes you may think it will be easy, but where you can't see it, you can't imagine how many difficulties are waiting to be solved.

However, is Chen Guang a person who is afraid of difficulties?Of course not. As a great socialist youth, Chen Guang has always remembered one sentence, that is: when there is difficulty, he must go, and when there is no difficulty, he must go.

What is this little difficulty in front of me?Compared with being able to eat fried vegetables every day in the future, what is that?Isn't it just a small iron pot?In the worst case, let's continue to overcome difficulties, come on, hurt each other.

"Why don't we try it first, how do we know it won't work if we haven't tried it?" Chen Guang said.After all, it doesn't sound good to say it if you give up before you start trying.

Chen Guang's suggestion was an order, and Ah Fu would naturally not object to it. Although he really couldn't figure out why the Crown Prince insisted on using pig iron to cast a pot, this did not prevent him from thinking about Chen Guang. Obedience to the request.

This is the boss's boss's boss's boss, does he dare not to obey?

Ah Fu said: "Only the Military Weapons Supervision has pig iron. If you want to try it, you can go there." Ah Fu said.

Chen Guang said with a smile: "Then what are you waiting for, it's not too late, let's go there now."

Ah Fu was surprised why Chen Guang was so interested, but he still got up.Looking at the black tea that he had not yet drank, he felt very sorry.

Chen Guang smiled slightly, clapped his palms, and someone brought up a big box immediately.

Ah Fu didn't know why and asked: "This is..."

Chen Guang said with a smile: "Haha, some time ago, they brought over some tea leaves. I was thinking, this tea leaves can't be eaten as a meal, and a pot of tea can only give so much. If they send too much tea, why don't you still have it?" Is it okay to let me eat old tea? So I will give these to you to take back, which can be regarded as helping me digest."

"Ah?" Hearing this, Ah Fu was shocked.The tea leaves are all packed in small cans. It is said that a can of the size of a finger can last for half a month, which is enough to show that the tea leaves are actually consumed at a very slow rate. Two hundred fingers are more than enough.

What a heavy gift this is. The legendary good black tea, even if it costs ten taels of silver, may not be able to buy one tael.And the one in front of him is what His Highness the Crown Prince usually drinks, so how precious is that?

Thinking of this, Ah Fu felt that his whole body was limp, and his legs had no strength. Although there was a little bit of joy in his heart, but more of it was panic. Such a big gift was really unbearable.Kneeling down on the ground with a plop, he said, "I can't do it, I can't do it, His Royal Highness can't do it."

Seeing him like this, Chen Guang smiled slightly and said lightly, "Oh? Why can't this be done?"

"This..." Chen Guang asked rhetorically, Ah Fu didn't know how to answer, suspected of bribery?Are you kidding, there are people in this world who have heard of subordinates bribing their superiors, have you ever heard of a prince bribing a young man?

Ah Fu has always felt that he is a small guy in the whole system. He is a craftsman, not even an official. In the field of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, he just sounds a little higher than a businessman-this is still in the After the level became clearer and clearer, the status of businessmen is not so low now, they can still wear silk and satin, they can still get fame and fame, and they can still live in big houses.Calculated in this way, Ah Fu really feels that he is an inconspicuous little character, so can His Royal Highness come to bribe me?If the prince hadn't sent someone to look for him, he would probably want to see the prince and the emperor in his life, it would be a dream.

Chen Guang smiled and patted his shoulder and said: "Okay, okay, just accept what I gave you. I know this thing is very expensive outside, but here, it's just a leaf." .”

"Then... that little one, it's better to be respectful than to obey." Since Chen Guang had said so, Ah Fu could only accept it.

Indeed, from the outside, tea, especially black tea, is a very precious thing, but here at Chen Guang, it is just processed leaves, and you can have as much as you want.

And Chen Guang didn't do this on a whim. He noticed just now that Ah Fu's gaze was always on the cup of tea, as if standing here as a prince was not as attractive as a cup of black tea.

Of course, Chen Guang will not be angry because of this. As the controller of tea, it is his method to sell tea through Fuxiangji all over the country and limit the supply. However, according to the feedback from all over the country, the supply of tea is always in short supply. He naturally knew what status tea would have in this country.The biggest reason why it is so popular is that tea can echo with a series of scenes such as tranquility and peace that people pursued at that time, and became the most suitable carrier and foil for their ideals.Buddhism and Taoism have regarded tea as very important until now, and it is for this reason.

Therefore, dignitaries and nobles flock to it, and literati and scholars strive for it. Businessmen who want to show off that they are part of the mainstream will naturally not miss this opportunity to show their identity.And the only people who have no chance to interact with black tea are probably handicraftsmen or ordinary farmers like Ah Fu.

Well, it boils down to one word, poor.Rich people drink tea, and poor people watch others drink tea, that's all.

Ah Fu may now own the most tea leaves among the poor, and it is also top-quality black tea.If he sells it, he may be able to exchange it for wealth that he may not even dare to imagine in several lifetimes in a matter of seconds.

But will he do it?

The box was very heavy, and it seemed that it was not just tea, but Ah Fu didn't know, he had never touched such a precious thing, he held it carefully, and went to the Military Weapons Supervision with Chen Guang.

Later, the news spread like wildfire that Ah Fu had received a large box of top-quality black tea as a gift from His Highness the Crown Prince, and many things happened subsequently, which I will not list for now.
