After being shut up in the mansion for seven days, I read a lot of books and learned more about the current world. Different from the history of the previous life, the Sui Dynasty in this life was not replaced by the Tang Dynasty, but lasted for several years. A hundred years later, he was replaced by the current Daqian. It is now the fifteenth year of Daqian and Hanchang. Today, Emperor Qianwen is working hard to restore the glory of the strong Han Dynasty.
Shen Ao didn't care about the current emperor's ambitions. What he was thinking about now was how to live his life next. Although he could receive living allowance every month due to his status as the Duke of the country, his aunt, Concubine Zhao, and his uncle, Marquis Zhongcheng. He would also give some regular money every month to help himself, but after all, it was what he got from others and did not belong to him, which made him not strong enough when he spoke. Shen Ao, who knew that it was difficult for a rich man to be a man without money, had to rely on his own hands. Get a happy life.
Reading is good. You can see and learn a lot from it. For example, if he knows what is missing in the world, he should do something. But before doing this, we still want to try what is in his mind. bestiality.
It should be the benefit of traveling through time, but compared to those in the book who travel through time with either systems or golden fingers, the bestiality skills brought by Shen Ao are somewhat unsatisfactory.
Bestiality: After learning it, you can communicate with all animals in the world and understand their words, and they can also understand yours.
"Hey, this makes me associate with beasts." Shen Ao sighed, with an angry look on his face. But think about it, after all, it is a skill, and based on the idea that what you learn is your own, in the past seven days, he He takes time to study every day. With his talent, he is still far away from being a master. Even communicating with a "behemoth" like Lao Niu is very laborious, so he can only choose some smaller animals for experiments first.
I had been in Duke Zhongguo's mansion before and had no purpose of experimenting. Now I came to the street and finally saw a domestic dog on the roadside, so I decided to give it a try. With the glimmer of understanding that came into my mind after studying, Shen His proud eyes fell on a big black dog on the roadside.
There was no need to speak, just communication between thoughts. The moment his eyes met the eyes of the big black dog, he actually understood the other person's thoughts at that moment from those eyes.
"Oh shit."
Precisely because he understood it, Shen Ao couldn't help but curse in his heart. This big black dog actually dared to look down on himself in his heart, thinking that he was far inferior to the other person. In addition to being more handsome, he didn't even have basic freedoms. None, so he could only be locked in the cattle shed, looking pitifully at everything around him.
Shen Ao was not imprisoned, he was disgusted by the muddy road below and didn't want to go down. At that moment, he used his mind to explain this idea to the big black dog. The big black dog who was listening was stunned for a few breaths. Then the other party fell to the ground with a clang, covered in black mud.
It seems to be saying, what's wrong with this black mud? It can wash away the dirt on the body. Look, aren't I just using these things to clean myself?
Come on, come down and wash with me. Look, how fun it is.
The performance of the big black dog fell into Shen Ao's eyes, and it really disgusted him. He finally understood a truth, it is really difficult for humans and animals to get along. At least he couldn't be like the big black dog. Roll around. Otherwise, you will definitely be regarded as a psychotic existence.
He tilted his head and stopped looking at the big black dog. Shen Ao decided not to use bestiality when it was not necessary. There was no point in talking to them rationally.
Returning to his mind, Shen Ao began to think about how to behave when he saw his cousin when he went to Zhao's workshop later.
The bullock cart was still walking slowly on the street. Neither Shi Lei, who was driving the cart, nor Shen Ao, who was riding in the cart, noticed that behind them, among the pedestrians on the road, there were two idle men following them all the way. The tracking skills are good, Shi'er will stop and Shi'er will take a few steps slowly, and there is no abnormality at all.
Zhao's Workshop.
It is one of the properties of Concubine Zhao's natal family in the imperial palace. Concubine Zhao, who gave birth to the sixth prince and the fifth princess to the current emperor, was originally named Zhao Yingying and was the biological sister of Shen Ao's mother, Zhao Yanyan.
Leveraging on Concubine Zhao's influence, Zhao's workshop is also one of the famous workshops in Daliang City. The ceramics it produces occupy a certain market share. But this time, Shen Ao came not to make ceramics. What he wants to make is soap.
Speaking of this, there is another joke. "Shishuo Xinyu" said that in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Wang Dun had just become the prince-in-law. It was convenient to go to the toilet. When he came back, the attendants brought toiletries. A small hand-washing kit made of gold. The basin was filled with clean water, and a glass bowl contained bath beans. Wang Dun had never seen it before, so he poured the bath beans into the wash basin, drank and ate them, and said that the bath beans were dry rice. This angered a whole room of attendants. They couldn't hold it in, so they all covered their mouths and snickered.
Bath beans are considered to be used by aristocratic families, but ordinary people cannot afford them. What do they use? Generally, each place has its own special decontamination products. For example, some places use tea bran, some use soap, and some In some places, saponin powder is used, and in some mountainous areas, soapberry, a natural polyphylla plant, is used.
After all, Shen Ao is also the Duke of the Kingdom. Although he is only fifteen years old and is called a small character in front of him, his identity as the Duke of the Kingdom is genuine. He usually uses bath beans. But that thing is not easy to use. He said that it was also expensive. Seeing that he couldn't even use the bath beans, he thought about whether he could make the soap in advance so that it would be convenient for him to use. The most important thing was that he could take this opportunity to make a lot of money. Last one.
As one of the most successful businessmen in the past, Shen Ao knew very well the power of capital. Soap would be his first step in establishing the Daqian Dynasty.
The ox cart was still very slow, not much faster than walking, which made Shen Ao want to use bestiality to communicate with it to see if Mr. Niu could speed up. But thinking about communicating with a big black dog, he was confused. I was a little dizzy, but I still shook my head. If Mr. Niu really listened to me, I don't want to pull the cart anymore, it's too tiring. If there's a general strike, wouldn't it be like shooting myself in the foot?
Forget it, just slow down, the better is safety. Looking at his little arms and legs, Shen Ao decided that he should exercise properly if he had the chance. Just like he had been in the army for three years, after studying However, he trained with the soldiers many times. Although he didn't have much time to participate in it, he still knew the basic routines. Thinking that once you have money, you need a good body to enjoy it, so he became more determined to exercise.
No matter how slow it was, the bullock cart was still moving, and it finally arrived at Zhao's workshop nearly an hour later. Cousin Zhao Yuanji had already received the news and was waiting at the entrance of the workshop with a few people. Watching Shen Ao's arrival.
