Chapter 21 Cement

In the study, Qin Hao sat on the chair sent by Yun Ye. Not long after, the housekeeper came with Yuan Tiangang in Taoist robes.

"I've met the lord sir on the trail." Yuan Tiangang smiled and bowed.

Qin Hao signaled to the butler that he could go down. After closing the door, he said calmly: "Master Yuan, please take a seat."

Yuan Tiangang was a little uncomfortable sitting on the chair at first, but after sitting for a while, he felt much more comfortable than sitting cross-legged.

"We haven't seen each other for a few months. I wonder how your master's cultivation of the Nei Jing Tu is going?"

Qin Hao said calmly: "There are so many mundane things these days, and the progress of Qi is a little slow."

Yuan Tiangang shook his head when he heard this: "No, no, the progress of the true energy is slow. It's because the Lord doesn't know how to do it. Taoist inner alchemy often needs to be assisted by elixirs. Otherwise, it can only rely on the essence and blood of one's own body to refine it."

It is really difficult to achieve success if you are angry."

"Oh? So, Taoist Yuan has a pill in his hand that can improve one's cultivation?" Qin Hao secretly cursed this old cow for having a dark heart. The so-called pills in Taoism can directly make people's soul ascend, and the metal content exceeds the standard.

That was commonplace. These people were apparently metaphysicians, but in fact they were ancient chemists. The elixir they refined could include the entire periodic table of elements. How could such an elixir be given to him?

Yuan Tiangang didn't notice the coldness in Qin Hao's eyes and continued to talk to himself.

"Yes, the old Taoist has five Qiankun Yiqi Pills and one Nine-turn Hunyuan Pill in his hand. He is willing to dedicate them to the Lord to help him find the way to immortality as soon as possible."

Qin Hao stared at Yuan Tiangang with a half-smile: "Such a precious elixir, Taoist Yuan just gave it to me for free?"

Yuan Tiangang rubbed his hands in embarrassment: "It would be great if Sir Alex could do a small favor for me."

"oh?"

Seeing that Qin Hao didn't seem too interested, Yuan Tiangang immediately took out two white jade bottles from his arms and handed them to Qin Hao.

Qin Hao took it, opened one of the bottles and smelled it, not to mention the fragrance of medicinal herbs.

Yuan Tiangang took the opportunity to introduce: "Sire, this Qiankun Yiqi Pill is made from seven or forty-nine kinds of precious medicinal materials. This pill has extremely strict requirements on medicinal materials. Regular medicinal materials such as ginseng, Polygonum multiflorum, and Ganoderma lucidum are at least

It has been more than fifty years, and the method of refining this elixir has long been lost, and this bottle was also passed down by the ancestors."

Qin Hao poured out an elixir from the jade bottle and twisted it in his hand, but he had no intention of taking it directly. He would not dare to eat it until he understood the ingredients of this elixir. You must know that many emperors have taken the so-called elixir since ancient times.

The elixir was poisoned to death by heavy metals.

There are many tomb-robbing novels in later generations, which are amazingly written, but there is a paradox in them. If there is really a way to live forever in the world, how can it be in an ancient tomb?

"Is the elixir really lost?" Qin Hao put the elixir back into the white jade bottle and put it aside calmly.

Yuan Tiangang's expression suddenly changed, and he asked tentatively: "Is Your Majesty interested in this elixir?"

"Since Taoist Yuan is in trouble, let's forget it." Qin Hao said, waving his hand and placing the two white jade bottles on the corner of the desk, indicating that Yuan Tiangang could take them away.

Upon seeing this, Yuan Tiangang stood up quickly and bowed deeply to Qin Hao: "Since Sir, you want it, I might be able to find it if I go back and look for it."

"Oh? Can you really find it?" Qin Hao glanced at Yuan Tiangang jokingly.

"It should be possible, it should be possible." Yuan Tiangang wiped the sweat on his forehead awkwardly.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do for you?" Qin Hao didn't intend to continue playing riddles with Yuan Tiangang.

Yuan Tiangang came closer, bowed and whispered: "I heard that the Duke and Yunxian County are going to set up a college. Yuan is not talented. He knows some Yi Jing Bagua and the art of predicting people..."

This was somewhat beyond Qin Hao's expectation: "You want to teach in the college?"

"That's true." Yuan Tiangang replied seriously.

Qin Hao thought that a magician was going to be a teacher in a major science school. Qin Hao thought it was funny when he thought about it. However, when he thought about it, the Eight Trigrams of the Book of Changes were not completely useless, and Kanyu was indeed a subject. Putting aside

Those mysterious disguises, to put it bluntly, aren't they just the ancient version of geography?

"It's not impossible..."

Before Yuan Tiangang could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Qin Hao say seriously again.

"Teacher, please teach me and solve your doubts. If you want to be a teacher in the college, you must first write a lesson plan. Yun County Male and I approved it, and then give an open class. If more than half of the teachers and students in the school approve, then you can

Can take office."

In fact, this is also a rule set by Qin Hao and Yun Ye, in order to prevent those rotten scholars from getting into the teaching team.

They can tolerate students in the college continuing to study Confucianism, because Confucianism itself is a philosophy, and it is also a very profound philosophy, but they cannot tolerate those corrupt Confucians holding high the banner of Confucianism, excluding dissidents, suppressing other schools of thought, and closing the minds of students.

"This..." Yuan Tiangang was dumbfounded. How did he know what a lesson plan was?

"Since Taoist Yuan feels embarrassed, let's forget it."

"Sir, please wait. The teaching plan and prescription will be delivered soon. Yuan will resign."

After saying that, Yuan Tiangang left without looking back. He had to go back to gather the people in the audience to discuss how to write a lesson plan.

Not to mention, Yuan Tiangang's action is still worthy of praise. The prescription and lesson plans were delivered the next day.

As for the elixir, Qin Hao took a look at it. It should be real. What surprised him was that the elixir was not adulterated with heavy metals such as cinnabar, lead and mercury. They were all refined from medicinal materials. As for the efficacy of the elixir,

Whether it is as miraculous as Yuan Tiangang said is still unknown.

But as for the lesson plan, Qin Hao can only use one word to describe it: a complete mess.

"The lesson plan is the outline of your class. I don't care whether you want to teach students how to fortune tell or deceive them. At least you have to have a method to teach them, instead of talking about yin and yang and the five elements, and the unity of nature and man!"

In Qin Hao's view, even if it is deception, it can actually be regarded as a psychology. As for Yin Yang, Five Elements, and the unity of nature and man, it is completely idealism.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Ah?" Yuan Tiangang was dumbfounded. He did not expect that Qin Hao would actually say such a thing. Cheating and abduction can also be taught in class.

?

This completely overturned Yuan Tiangang's understanding of the academy. He had some doubts about whether he would be kicked off the stage if he really talked about this in a public class.

"If you really feel that you have nothing to say, then talk about Kanyu and teach students how to survey geography and how to calculate directions." Qin Hao reminded.

Yuan Tiangang's eyes lit up: "Thank you Sir for your advice."

Finally, Yuan Tiangang went back and stayed for three more days, and finally submitted a lesson plan that was barely qualified. When he learned that the lesson plan was passed, the old Taoist priest was so excited that he almost shed tears.

After sending Yuan Tiangang away, Qin Hao took his lesson plan and rushed to Yun Ye's fiefdom in Chang'an County.

The snow had almost melted along the way, and Chiyue could finally run freely. This winter had suffocated her.

The Yun Mansion's house was obviously renovated by Yun Ye, and it looked like a villa of later generations.

When I arrived at the door of Yun Mansion, I sent a greeting card. Not long after, an old lady came to the door with her whole family of women and children to greet her.

"I have met the man from Qin County."

"I pay my respects to the man from Qin County."

Qin Hao quickly helped the old woman up: "The old woman is hurting me. Yun Ye is my junior brother. In front of you, I am a junior. How can I bear such a great gift?"

The old woman grabbed Qin Hao's hand with tears in her eyes: "I can bear it, I can bear it, Ye'er told me. He has been thanks to the care of his master and senior brother in these years, especially since he joined the world. If it weren't for senior brother

Protect me, he has been snatched away by a wild wolf a long time ago. If Ye'er had had his faults, my Yun family would not be where we are today."

As she talked, the old woman burst into tears, and Yun Ye's "relatives" all had red eyes. Just when Qin Hao didn't know how to comfort her, Yun Ye finally came out.

The two comforted her for a while before helping the old woman back home.

After the old woman calmed down her mood, she regained her former wisdom. She realized that Qin Hao came to see her grandson for something, so she asked Yun Ye to take Qin Hao to the study to talk, and the few people who had been pestering Yun Ye were

The two sisters were all kicked out.

"There are people guarding the outside of this study, making it so secretive?" Qin Hao joked.

Yun Ye said helplessly: "Grandma made the decision. She was afraid that my writings and drawings would be leaked out and benefit others."

"It seems that you have accepted these relatives." Qin Hao sat down on Yun Ye's seat without ceremony.

Yun Ye smiled bitterly, with a look of helplessness on his face: "I can't go back anyway. With my family here, it seems I won't be so lonely."

"Besides, you are right. Maybe my time traveling to the Tang Dynasty is part of my destiny. Historically, I traveled back from modern times to save the Yun family."

Qin Hao shook his head: "I just said casually, what have you experienced recently, why are you so fatalistic?"

"Oh, forget it, Li Anlan seems to hate me more and more now." Yun Ye lamented with a bitter face.

"Why did you provoke her again?" Qin Hao asked curiously.

"Last time, she misunderstood me as a prostitute. I wanted to make something delicious to coax her, so I gave her a beggar's chicken. But she gave it to the maid next to me, and then took the chicken.

I was chasing me away with a broom, but Li Gang saw me accidentally and gave her a slap in the face."

"Who is Li Gang?"

"He is the teacher of the Pope and the Princess."

Qin Hao held it in for a long time, then patted Yun Ye's shoulder sympathetically and said two words: "My condolences."

"Why do I feel like you're a little gloating?" Yun Ye rolled his eyes.

"Well, it turns out that your feeling is right."

Yun Ye:..........

After the small talk, Qin Hao told Yuan Tiangang that he was going to become a teacher in the college. Yun Ye was obviously a little resistant.

Qin Hao handed him the lesson plan written by Yuan Tiangang.

Yun Ye read it once and had no objection. Anyone who can reach the top in any industry must have unique insights into this industry. Even Yun Ye, who studied geography in later generations, after reading Yuan Tiangang's "Kanyu"

After explaining it, I couldn't help but be very impressed.

"It seems that the wisdom of the ancients cannot be underestimated."

With Yun Ye's approval, Yuan Tiangang's matter was considered a success. As for the two pill prescriptions and two bottles of pills, Qin Hao naturally deserved it.

"By the way, senior brother, should we get the cement out in advance?" Yun Ye suddenly mentioned.

"Are you planning to shorten the project time as much as possible?"

"My parents are the ones who gave birth to me, and my senior brothers are the ones who know me."

Yun Ye said seriously: "I have already had the design drawings of the college drawn. The scale is too large. If it is built according to the techniques of the Tang Dynasty, it will not only be time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also costly. However, if a cement structure is adopted, the construction period can at least be shortened.

By half, the cost can be reduced by more than half.”

"Well, this is a good idea. Anyway, the permafrost has not yet fully recovered, so we can burn the lime kiln first. But are there any lime mines nearby?"

"Yes, there is a lime mine right in my fief."

"You're lucky, kid."

"hey-hey."

Yun Ye then proudly said to Qin Hao: "By the way, senior brother, the first batch of students have already been settled. Cheng Chumo, Qin Huaiyu, Li Huairen, and many other second sons of noble families will all be our students in the future."

Qin Hao's heart moved: "I asked Yuan Tiangang why he took the initiative to become this teacher. This old boy seems to have received the news in advance."

"It seems that next time I have to get some compensation from the old Taoist priest Yuan Tiangang."

Taking losses has never been Qin Hao's style. Next time he sees Yuan Tiangang, he will peel off his skin no matter what.

"I'm afraid it's hard to discipline these noble disciples together, right?" Qin Hao frowned.

Yun Ye chuckled: "Don't worry, Niu Jinda agreed to come to our college to take charge of his son in order to let his son enter our college. With him here, even if Li Chengqian comes, he has to be obedient."

Niu Jinda is famous for his scornful eyes. In the army, anyone who violates military laws will not be spared. As soon as the noble disciples heard that he had returned to Chang'an City, they passed by Niu Jinda's house one by one.

, they didn’t dare to make loud noises, it can be said that they have a bad reputation.

Unknowingly, it was already dark outside, and Mrs. Yun insisted on keeping Qin Hao for dinner.

Qin Hao couldn't resist and had no choice but to agree to stay.

At the dinner table, Mrs. Yun kept putting dishes for Qin Hao, and Yun Ye's younger sisters also peeked at him with curious eyes.

"Well, I heard from Ye'er that you are also a poor child. You lost your parents when you were young and were adopted by your master. If you don't dislike it, this will be your second home from now on."

After eating and drinking, Mrs. Yun held Qin Hao's hand and said with tears in her eyes as she sent Qin Hao out.

"Junior brother and I grew up together. Relatives are better than relatives. Junior brother's relatives are my relatives. I will visit the old lady often in the future, just because I'm afraid you might find me annoying."

"How could it be possible? I wish you could come here every day." Mrs. Yun was amused and smiled happily.

Riding all the way back to the fiefdom, it was already night and every household on the village had lights on. Qin Hao suddenly felt a sense of identity with this place.

In the following period, Qin Hao and Yun Ye jointly funded the construction of a cement workshop.

Li Shimin also became interested after receiving the secret report from Baiqisi.

"What is the purpose of this thing?" Li Shimin looked at the dusty cement in front of him and was puzzled.

"From what the men from Qin County and Yun County said, it seems that they are used to build a college."

"Can this soft thing be used to build a college?"
