The Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system, and although it also emphasized agriculture and suppressed business, and despised craftsmen, the key depends on the specific situation.

For example, at this moment, although Wang Mang brought Liu Ao to play with the craftsmen's craftsmanship, Wang Mang stood firm morally, and more importantly, the thing Liu Ao was playing with was paper!

What is paper?

Paper is the carrier of knowledge!

Although the mainstream writing tool is still bamboo slips, from the moment paper was invented, its mission has been to replace bamboo slips and become a more convenient and simple writing tool.

Therefore, by taking Liu Ao to experience the fun of a papermaking craftsman, Wang Mang will not only avoid being criticized by others, but will also be praised by others!

After all, you can’t even look up at the things Liu Ao did when he left the palace in the past. They were either fighting cocks or riding horses, or drinking, singing and dancing.

Liu Ao has never done anything with such depth and style.

Now, following Wang Mang out of the palace, he has actually changed. He no longer goes to cockfights, horseback riding, drinking, singing and dancing. This is a huge change for the wise people in both the government and the public!

Watching Liu Ao's serious expression in using the gauze to pick up pulp fibers, Wang Mang's mouth showed a smile. Sure enough, this kind of leisurely experiential labor is so attractive!

After Liu Ao carefully fished out the paper fibers in the gauze until they were white and even, his face showed a look of excitement.

Liu Ao said excitedly: "Nai Gong can also make paper!"

Wang Mang immediately bowed and said, "Brother is gifted by nature. In my brother's eyes, such a small skill is nothing more than a trivial skill. You can tell the whole story at a glance!"

Liu Ao said: "Come here and help Naigong take out this paper film. Naigong wants to get another one!"

Wang Mang and the craftsmen on the side immediately came over to help Liu Ao carefully free the paper membrane from the gauze. Then Liu Ao became more playful and copied several more pieces of paper membrane before he gave up.

After completing this process, Liu Ao began to experience the next process.

Liu Ao stacked the paper films he picked up together, and then, with the guidance and help of Wang Mang, placed the paper films on a flat board, and then carefully pressed the paper films with a wooden board. In the end, Liu Ao actually took the initiative

He reached out to help lift the stone that needed to be pressed on the wooden board and pressed it on.

Wang Mang and others immediately increased their efforts to lift the stone, so that when Liu Ao finally moved it, he didn't feel much strength.

After this step was completed, Liu Ao was surprised and said: "Nai Gong's energy is so strong!"

Liu Ao is completely ignoring the facts and talking nonsense. He is just talking nonsense with his eyes open!

Can he really use his strength when moving this stone? It wasn't Wang Mang and the others who used all their strength to let Liu Ao experience the feeling of lifting the stone with ease!

However, since Liu Ao boasted so much, Wang Mang must have followed the praise. Wang Mang said: "Brother is born with supernatural power, it is better to admire him."

Liu Ao grinned and said, "Mengde, you need to practice more. Otherwise, how can you be a great general?"

Wang Mang laughed at himself and said that he would practice harder.

But at the same time, Wang Mang was also complaining about Liu Ao in his heart, what kind of strength can a straw bag who lives and drinks every day have? You still want me to exercise more? If you really exercise, even a big man can't stand it!

After he finished complaining, Wang Mang was stunned for a moment, "big man?" There seems to be something wrong with this word.

When Wang Mang was distracted by the big man, Liu Ao spoke again, "What else is fun next?"

Wang Mang immediately came to his senses and said, "Brother, please follow me."

Wang Mang took Liu Ao and continued walking deeper into the manor. When they reached the depths of the manor, Liu Ao saw a house with a strange shape.

This house is very abrupt, built in a place filled with white smoke, and covered with a layer of rice mats. At this moment, some of the rice mats on the slope of the house are rolled up high, while others are hanging down naturally.

, it looks strange!

Liu Ao asked: "What's the point here?"

Wang Mang said: "Brother, you will know when you enter it and take a look!"

Liu Ao came to this peculiar house out of curiosity, and then what Liu Ao saw was a crisp green!

Liu Ao was surprised: "How to do this?"

Wang Mang smiled at the side and said: "Brother, don't be surprised. This is a hot spring place. When Cao Cao was reading a lot of books in Tianlu Pavilion, he discovered that during the Spring and Autumn Period, some people used the heat of the hot springs to grow vegetables out of season. Therefore, Cao Cao was there

After many attempts, a special greenhouse was built here to collect heat and try growing vegetables."

"After experiments, it turns out that the hot spring land can go against the seasons, take over the creation of heaven and earth, and produce things that can only be found in spring and summer."

Liu Ao was so amazed that he said: "This is auspicious!"

Wang Mang was stunned when he heard Liu Ao say it was auspicious. He had never thought about it, but he didn't expect Liu Ao to say it was auspicious when he arrived!

It seems that ancient auspiciousness was not only fake, but also very immature!

Liu Ao looked at the green vegetables next to the hot spring, his eyes shining brightly. He never expected that Wang Mang would give him such a big surprise!

If such an object is brought back to the palace, it will definitely be treated as auspicious.

Moreover, the emperor, even if he is an incompetent and ignorant emperor, still has the dream of a wise emperor, and the best way for an emperor to flaunt himself as a wise emperor is undoubtedly to rely on so-called auspiciousness to prove his wisdom!

In Liu Ao's eyes, these vegetables that are out of season are like proof of wisdom given to him by God. He feels that he must regard them as auspiciousness no matter what, and make a big deal, otherwise he will be sorry to God.

Give me a chance!

Liu Ao said excitedly: "Meng De, you are really my lucky star! Such auspiciousness has appeared in this world, and you have made the greatest contribution! When I return to the palace, I will definitely reward you heavily!"

Wang Mang couldn't explain it clearly now.

If I still insist on explaining that this is not auspicious, I will definitely be disliked by Liu Ao.

Therefore, Wang Mang could only say obediently: "What brother said is true! If this is not auspicious, how can I achieve it in one try? This must be God's recognition of brother!"

At this time, Wang Mang can only tell lies without conscience, otherwise this test will be really difficult.

Although it is not honorable to flatter one's superiors, the current environment of the Han Dynasty is such that they like this kind of mysterious theory of strange powers and chaotic gods.

Therefore, even if Wang Mang really presented these vegetables as a gift, no one would say anything.

At the same time, Wang Mang couldn't help but look back at this extremely simple greenhouse.

This greenhouse is extremely crudely built, and the roof has nothing but a frame and a straw mat! All heat energy is supplied by the heat provided by the hot spring.

Wang Mang relied on digging several ditches in this greenhouse to guide the hot water in the hot springs to flow through the vegetable fields. This time, he provided sufficient heat for these vegetables, allowing them to grow in this cold winter.

.

As for the function of this greenhouse, it is to surround the four walls to block the cold wind outside, and the straw mats on the roof can be manually lowered to cover the wind and snow when the wind and snow come outside, so that the vegetables inside are not protected from the wind and snow.

The suffering of cold wind, rain and snow.

Finally, Wang Mang also looked at Liu Ao and said, "Brother, if you don't mind, you can use the vegetables here to make dishes in the afternoon."

Liu Ao hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively: "This is an auspicious thing, can it really be eaten?"

Wang Mang said firmly: "My brother's status is unparalleled in the world, so this thing is auspicious. No one in the world can taste it better than my brother. So I think that my brother can use this thing as a dish!"

Liu Ao grinned with joy: "Meng De's words are very suitable to my liking! You can use this as a meal at Yunshi (Shenshi, about 15:00 to 17:00 in the afternoon)!"

Even though Liu Ao had identified these vegetables as auspicious in his heart, his hedonistic heart was still unstoppable, and he couldn't help but covet these green vegetables, thinking about improving his food.

As a result, some of the vegetables were picked out and made into delicacies in the afternoon, which were served on Liu Ao's dining table!

As for the remaining vegetables, Liu Ao was going to pack them back, present them to the Queen Mother, and then announce their auspicious and advanced properties!
