Fang Yang walked back. Li Er gave him a look, and Li Congming immediately followed Fang Yang.
Cheng Dali followed him and left.
Cheng Wu picked up an egg, placed it in his palm, and squeezed it hard.
"Eh? Why can't it explode?"
" It's very simple," Li Er said calmly." Don't hold it so tightly. It'll explode."”
Li Er felt pain in his heart.
Damn, in the first year of being the emperor, a monk used this trick to fool me.
Li Shimin still didn't know why he couldn't break it as he tightened his grip.
However, Li Er, who didn't understand the principle, had already cracked the way to squeeze the egg. He didn't have to hold it so tightly, and it could easily explode.
Li Er looked at Fang Yang, who had entered, and was very suspicious.
Could it be that this guy knows that I'm Li Shi Min and knows about what happened back then?
Are you deliberately using this trick to provoke me?
Or was this a common trick used by people in the martial arts world, and many people knew about it?
The theory was simple, but it was not so easy to understand for the people of this era.
To put it simply, the raw eggshell was a complete whole. If the force was applied evenly, the eggshell would share the force equally.
Unless one had the strength of more than a hundred pounds with one hand, one could forget about crushing an egg while holding it tightly.
After entering the backyard, Fang Yang poured two cups of tea.
Cheng Dali reached out to get it." Thank you, teacher, for giving me water. How did you know I was thirsty?"”
Fang Yang slapped Cheng Dali's hand.""This is not for you."
Cheng Wu went to get some tea.”
Fang Yang slapped Cheng Wu's hand.""It's not for you either."
Fang Yang sat on the armchair he had made."Rules cannot be broken."
"To become my disciple, you need to serve tea.”
"First kowtow three times, then serve me some tea.”
In the Tang Dynasty, even the commoners did not need to kneel when they saw the emperor.
Unless it was a sacrifice to the ancestral temple, the kneeling ceremony was not popular.
It was reasonable for him to bow down to his master.
But kowtowing…
Congming looked at Li Er.
Li Er: " Why are you looking at me? Why aren't you kowtowing and offering tea?"”
Li Congming hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed. Then, he stood up and brought the tea to Fang Yang.
Fang Yang took a sip." Mm, not bad, not bad. I'll give you a gift."”
Fang Yang handed over a scroll and opened it.
Congming opened it and read,"
"Ancient scholars must have teachers. A teacher is a teacher who can teach and dispel doubts. If a man is not born wise, how can he not be confused? If you are confused and do not follow your teacher, you will be confused and will not be able to understand it in the end…"
"Confucius said: When three people walk together, one of them must be my teacher. Therefore, the disciple does not have to be inferior to the teacher, and the teacher does not have to be better than the disciple. There is a certain order in learning the Tao, and there is a certain specialization in the art, that's all…"
Li Congming exclaimed as he read, Good article!”
"Of course it's a good article."
Li Congming pointed at the last part of the essay,"There's a huge gap after 'Li Zi, year…' It seems like it hasn't been finished yet.”
"How old are you this year? How are you doing with the Four Books and Five Classics?" Do you know riding archery?"
" I'm 15 this year," Li Congming nodded." I've completed the Four Books, Five Classics and Six Arts."”
Fang Yang took the calligraphy, spread it out on the table, and continued to write.
"Li Zi Da, fifteen years old, likes ancient prose, and is proficient in the six arts. I praised him for his ability to practice the ancient way and wrote "Teacher's Theory" to him.”
" Teacher Xie," Li Congming hurriedly cupped his hands." I will remember Teacher Xie's warning for the rest of my life. I will study it every day."”
Cheng Dali: " Teacher, a bowl of water should be treated fairly. Where are our gifts?"”
Fang Yang opened a box.”
Cheng Dali looked at the black and shiny thing in the box suspiciously.""What is this?"
"I had nothing to do a few days ago, so I used my unique technique to refine a piece of refined steel. I'll give it to you."”
Some time ago, Fang Yang really wanted to eat stir-fried vegetables, so he used the later generation's steel-making method to make steel on a small scale.
And it was a stainless steel alloy.
However, he remembered that iron pots couldn't be made of steel, so he used the crucible method again.
The refined steel was left there useless.
It was a good gift.
Fang Yang: " Don't look down on the small size of this piece of steel. If it's used to forge a spearhead, it'll be as easy as piercing through paper to break through iron and leather armor.”
Cheng Dali's eyes lit up.
Cheng Wu said,"Father will find the best craftsman to refine this piece of steel into a spearhead."”
Cheng Wu and Li Er didn't quite believe that this was the saying that steel was refined hundreds of times.
This grandpa was too ugly.
Even a hundred times of refining steel required one to go back and forth a hundred times.
A hundred catties of iron was finally refined into ten catties of fine steel.
After thousands of years of tempering, it was still very square. How could it be so ugly?
Of course, they did not know that Fang Yang had poured the molten steel onto the sand…
Then, after washing it, it would look like this.
However, Cheng Dali firmly believed that this was Immortal Steel!
Fang Yang: " Haha, since you're already my disciples, I'll teach you the first lesson.”
Li Congming, Cheng Dali: ”
Fang Yang: " The first lesson is to work and practice what you preach. Don't think that your family is a wealthy merchant and that many things can be done by servants.”
"What kind of study is it if you don't know anything about the five grains and six livestock? Come, work for me.”
Fang Yang brought them to a small house.
Li Er took a deep breath.
Cheng Wu's eyes lit up.”
Fang Yang chuckled." The last time I drank with Li Er, Du Kang disgusted me. I've been fermenting the food since I came back. It's almost ready today, so I can steam the wine."”
"Steamed wine?" Li Er was surprised. I thought you were joking."
Fang Yang: " What are you joking about? We've already agreed. Six thousand strings of money and half of the shares. In the future, when we make wine, we'll split the profits fifty-fifty.”
"Let's see how the wine is first."”
