Chapter 83: Senior Brother Becomes an Official

Chapter 83 Senior Brother Being an Official

"I don't know! I have never dabbled in it! Weapons are no longer my Director Qin Mo!" Without thinking, Zhang Qian shook his head into a rattle. "And when I was delivering alcohol, I once attached a handwritten instruction to prohibit getting close to the open fire. Is Dr. Liu illiterate? Or did the Si lose the instructions in the paper?!"

I deny the three consecutive days and can't admit anything I say. I know that alcohol steam has the performance of explosion! I will quickly add another item in the workshop, strictly prohibiting anyone from closing the window to refine alcohol. Otherwise...

Turning his head and taking a quick look at Guo Nu and Ren Cong. Zhang Qian's back was covered in cold sweat.

That day, I had a good time going to the workshop to see it, and the window was opened in time.

Thanks to the fact that these two boys are very lucky, they did not let the alcohol steam concentration in the house reach the explosion point. Otherwise, the first laboratory accident in the Tang Dynasty would have broken out in the Zhang family. The one who is lying half dead on the sickbed will not be the doctor surnamed Liu!

"It's better to not admit it by Zhao, so as not to make a fuss about the explosion again!" Zhang Jiuling was skeptical about Zhang Qian's statement, but he reminded him very tactfully, even if he knew it would be better to deny it.

Sheep, dog, chicken and duck are not worth much money. The doctor surnamed Liu was careless and was half-blowed to death, and he could not blame others. However, the location of the Imperial Medical Office is close to the inner palace. If he is accused by someone who is interested in trying to be unfavorable to the royal family, not to mention that Zhang Qian had no foundation in the Tang Dynasty, even if he was born in the five surnames, he would have to be forced to move!

"Thank you, the official! My senior brother is at home. I have never mentioned that alcohol has such great power after a fire!" The drum is not necessary to be a heavy hammer. In terms of self-protection and clearing suspicion, Guo Nu and Ren Cong are both more experienced than Zhang Qian, the senior brother, who is the eldest senior brother, and bow to thank him decisively.

"Well, it's good that you brothers don't know!" Seeing that Guo Nu and Ren Cong were revealed at one point, Zhang Jiuling felt very pleased. After thinking about it, he continued to reveal: "What I said before was not to comfort Yong Zhao. The emperor really attaches great importance to alcohol and specially gave this item a name, gunpowder! The name of the Military Gunpowder Bureau comes from this!"

"What? Gunpowder?" Zhang Qian's mouth opened his head in an instant, and almost opened his chin bone and took off his body.

The scientific name of alcohol is "gunpowder". What is the synthetic compound of steak, nitrogen, carbon molar ratio? Also, there is the gunpowder from Sun Simiao. As his direct descendant, shouldn't Sun Anzu immediately stand up to defend the naming rights of his ancestors for gunpowder? (Note: Sun Simiao's gunpowder is called the sulphur method of the Dan Jing, and it is not named after gunpowder.)

"Of course it's gunpowder. You can get angry and use medicine to clean up the golden cult to avoid infection!" Unable to understand why Zhang Qian's reaction was so weird, Zhang Jiuling frowned and asked, "Do you have any objections to the name of Zhao? Although Your Majesty is the emperor, he is very admonishing. If you have any objections to the name of this..."

"No, no, really not!" Zhang Qian waved his hand without hesitation, and another three-game denied.

Just gunpowder, gunpowder. The ancient Arabs called black gunpowder "Chinese Snow". Black and white were reversed, and it did not affect the gunpowder becoming a killing weapon step by step. As for the future, you really need to take out this big killing weapon, just add a black word in front. White gunpowder and black gunpowder, one liquid and one solid powder, can be clearly distinguished.

"Since the emperor has given him a name in person, the Gunpowder Bureau has also been marked by His Majesty. After you take office, no one dares to deliberately bully his life!" Knowing that Zhang Qian might not tell the truth, Zhang Jiuling did not understand the truth. He smiled and continued to give patient advice. "But when you first took office, you should try to be low-key and try to learn to be with Guangchen. To be honest, if Brother Yu passed the Jinshi, if he knew how to be a human being, his career would not be so bumpy." (Note: Zhang Jiuling was a Jinshi in the second year of Chang'an (702). He was only twenty-five years old and had a high start, but he was not successful for a long time since then.)

"Thank you, Brother Zishou, I will definitely keep it in mind!" Zhang Qian is just a postgraduate entrance examination dog in the 21st century. What he lacks the most is social experience. He heard Zhang Jiuling speak seriously and stood up gratitude and bowed.

"The military weapon supervisors do not participate in the government affairs, so you don't need to go to court except on the New Year (the first day of the Lunar New Year) and the winter solstice. As usual, you will have to go to court for ten days. Even if you are not on the day of rest, you will not have to take the duty in the military weapon supervisor at all times. However, you need to be cautious in the first few months and you are not allowed to take leave easily. Even if you have something to ask for leave, don't leave Chang'an City. In order not to ask for gunpowder suddenly, you will be asked to chase the court..." Worried that Zhang Qian had suffered the losses he had suffered after entering the officialdom because of his lack of experience, Zhang Jiuling patiently added. (Note: Chasing the court, the emperor temporarily arranged an official to answer his questions, or participated in a discussion on something, and would send someone to inform him when he would participate, which is called Chasing the court.)

He did this obviously because he wanted to repay his favor. Because if Zhang Qian had not provided alcohol and alcohol disinfection to the court through He Zhizhang, Bi Gou and Zhang Shuo, his name would have been forgotten by Emperor Li Xian of the Tang Dynasty, and would not have been suddenly activated. Let me tell Zhang to test the effect of alcohol disinfection.

The effect of alcohol disinfection on Jin Chuang infection was several times better than what Zhang Qian said in public. The careless Doctor Liu accidentally revealed another magical use of alcohol. This made him talk to Zhang, and at the same time, he was in the Dixin.

His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who was ashamed of marrying the princess and marrying the Tubo, promoted him to the Ministry of Personnel to take charge of the examination, and directly placed Zhang Shuo as the Minister of War, in order to show the ministers that anyone who could contribute to the strong military and powerful Tang Dynasty would be stingy with all those who could only fight against each other or act as an official and articled person would sooner or later be expelled from the court.

Compared to the time when he was just in the Jinshi five years ago, Zhang Jiuling's heart is no longer young. He already knows that no matter how high his ideals and ambitions are, he must first step on his feet. Therefore, whether it is from the perspective of gratitude or the perspective of winning newcomers to become his future help, he is willing to treat Zhang Qian with kindness. He also believes that Zhang Qian will not let down his kindness in the future, and can even bring him enough rewards!

Although Zhang Qian had serious lack of workplace experience, his intelligence was no worse than that of the Imperial College students in the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, he would not have become a "postgraduate entrance examination dog" in the philosophy department under extremely difficult conditions.

He keenly noticed Zhang Jiuling's guidance, and immediately chose to listen carefully. When he didn't understand very well or needed to know in detail, he would decisively ask the other party for advice. As a result, one of the two parties taught patiently and the other learned seriously, and they cooperated well.

This lesson was over at sunset, and Zhang Jiuling refused the dinner and wanted to go home before the city gate closed. Zhang Qian originally wanted to ask the previous question whether he needed to imitate the ancients, and gave a three-word and three-word prayer, and then went to the post with a hesitant attitude. As a result, he thought that if this B could be pretended to be a B, why would Zhang Jiuling be so anxious to teach his experience of being an official? So he simply strangled this ridiculous idea to death in the bud.

So, when Zhang Jiuling left, he not only brought a carriage containing chrysanthemum white and whiskers, but also brought the names of two "talents" recommended by Zhang Qian to the country. Some people in the court were interested in becoming officials. Since they were the list brought back by the Ministry of Personnel, the court was anxious to see the achievements of the Gunpowder Bureau. The "professional title" problem of Guo Nu and Ren Cong was naturally the "green light" along the way.

So, before the last day of September, Zhang Qian, the chief clerk of the military weapon supervisor of the Tang Dynasty, and Zhang Qian, and two ninth-rank supervisors, took office with a "passionate desire to serve the country". As for the Liushen Hualu workshop and the winemaking and refining pot in the village, they were all left to the butler Ren Quan. Anyway, the latter had worked under Ren Qiong for many years, and was quite experienced in how to be a successful "white glove". As long as Zhang Qian, the backer, was not defeated, he would never mess up the business in his hands.

Because he received guidance from an expert Zhang Jiuling in advance and mastered his unique skills, the three brothers Zhang Qian, Guo Nu and Ren Cong worked smoothly in the military weapon supervision. From the fourth-rank supervisor to the ninth-rank supervisor, they all felt that although the three new colleagues were young, they were extremely open-minded in their work and work. They never caused any trouble to everyone, and they always brought refreshing surprises to everyone.

Specifically, there are examples to prove it.

For example, Yang Jiancheng, who was in charge of the Armor Bureau, recently greeted his colleagues in the morning and suddenly pulled Zhang Qian aside. Before he could speak, his face was burned into a red cloth: "This, Zhang Zhubu, I heard that there is a well on your farm with different water quality. It is used to dispose of medicine, which has the miraculous effect of expelling evil spirits and strengthening the body and nourishing the body..."

"Rumor, rumors, the people below said it deliberately to subsidize their household income. In fact, it was to sell some groceries that could not be used on the table. Seeing that they were also dedicated to the good of the farm, the officials did not stop them." Zhang Qian immediately understood it. Before the other party finished speaking, he smiled and handed over a brocade box carefully bandaged with silk. "The people below secretly tinkered with this kind of groceries. You are well-informed, so you might as well take a few bottles to taste. In fact, the effect is just like that, it is just a rumor!"

"Oh, how can you be so embarrassed!" Yang Jiancheng refused again and again, so he had to stuff the brocade box into his pocket in his sleeve. "To be honest, Zhang Zhubu said, my man is from Hedong. Before I became an official, I had suffered a lot, so the hero was inevitably short of breath!"

"Yang Shucheng must not say that. Fang Xuanling left a good story for this!" Zhang Qian listened to the words and interrupted with a smile again, "The official gave you a wooden sign. If you have any needs in the future, Yang Shucheng asked his sister-in-law to take his maid to the Liushen shop in Xishikou to pick it. It is all the latest tricks, so she will be satisfied." (Note: The most famous allusion for fear of your wife comes from Fang Xuanling.)

As he spoke, he quickly handed over another exquisite wooden sign that burned the letters of the Daqin. When Yang Shucheng saw it, his eyes suddenly turned into crescent moons, "How can you be so embarrassed, how can you be so embarrassed..."

"If you don't accept it, you'll see you. My gunpowder department has just opened. Isn't your help to make the alchemy pot as soon as possible? That thing will cost hundreds of kilograms of pure copper. If you didn't say anything, who would dare to help me, an unknown junior?!"

"Well, then Yang is not polite. I'm watching the pill pot for you, and I guarantee that it is all made of pure copper without any miscellaneous materials. Before the eighth day of the lunar month, I'll guarantee that you can light the first fire!" Yang Shucheng smiled and put away the wooden sign and took in a big bag.

"Then it's time for Mr. Yang!" Zhang Qian smiled and bowed to the other party, returned to his room, took out two other brocade boxes from the bamboo basket under the table, and walked into the "office" of a young prison with a smile. "Thank you for your hard work at the Zuo Shaojian! This is a little specialty in the Xiazhuang. I heard that Ling Ai was about to get married, and I didn't prepare anything, so I took some specialty to add makeup to Ling Ai!"

"Oh, Liushen Hualu, how can you be so embarrassed!" Zuo Cheng, the young military weapon supervisor who is known for his cold face and selflessness, quickly stood up and bowed with a smile, "I didn't want to disturb my colleagues about my children's private affairs. It's all because of Yang Shucheng's big mouth, which has spread to everyone!"

"Even if Yang Shucheng doesn't say it, we should add some dowry to Ling Ai." Zhang Qian smiled and took over the conversation, and then put down a wooden sign with the letters of Daqin. "This thing is made by people from all over the village. It is specially designed for the ladies in Chang'an City to buy Liushen Hualu. With this thing, you can go to the Liushen store in Xishikou, and give priority to trying the latest fragrance Hualu."

"I know, VIP card, Zhang Zhubu, you are really too polite! Don't worry, someone has sent you to order the raw wine for you, one pound a month, you can ask me if you want to take one pound away!"

"In this case, I would like to thank Mr. Zuo!"

With a smile, Zhang Qian went back to his "office" and took out the third brocade box containing "Liu Shen Hua Lu" to find the next target that must be corroded.

...

"Brothers, work harder! The chief clerk said that he would put the stove together and let the alcohol come out of the stove. At the end of the month, each person would give him a bottle of Six-Shenhua Dew and two kilograms of chrysanthemums white!" At the same time, Guo Nu waved his arms and cheered for the craftsmen and servants.

"If you don't want to drink white chrysanthemums, if you don't want to, come and register. Go back and sell it for you to exchange it for money! Fifty dollars a bottle, you will be fine!" On the other end of the workshop, Ren Cong, the newly appointed ninth-rank supervisor, carried a brush and tempted with a smile.

"Thank you, thank you, the supervisor!" The craftsmen and the servants, their eyes shining and were full of energy. At a speed of at least twice as fast as usual, they built up the blue bricks they had just arrived and slowly built into a huge stove. The second update is here to send it to you, please collect it, and recommend it. Thank you everyone. The drinker.
