Chapter 42 Differences

Please recommend!

I went out of the hall with Zhao De. After a while, a cart of four horses came quickly. When Wang Li came, he rushed over in a raincoat and rode a horse in the raincoat. When he returned, he had a cart, but it was much better to have it.

The weather in summer is changing. Perhaps it has been raining heavily since last night, until around eleven o'clock, and the rain in the sky has ended.

At this time, the dark clouds in the sky disappeared, and gold was faintly revealed. Even a rainbow bridge could be seen flying north and south in the distance. This magical phenomenon of nature attracted the residents of Handan to see the rainbow light brought out by the gods' trip. They were all amazed and watched, and people asked to worship from time to time.

The officials and officials who had not yet arrived at home looked at the Hongqiao and thought that it was the auspiciousness of the heavenly zodiac caused by the king's killing of Zhao Mu. Some doctors couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that God wanted to bless Zhao State. First, the king became a wise king overnight, and now he has auspiciousness.

In this era, all kinds of mysterious forces such as natural disasters and auspiciousness have an infinite influence on human society. Because of this, King Zhao said that Zou Yan’s five virtues were nonsense, but they would also be used when needed. The five virtues were quite popular in later generations.

The downpour of rain washed away a hint of summer and made the air in the atmosphere much fresher. However, in this era, except for the main sections of the palace, the roads in other places were covered with mud and stone roads. When there was heavy rain, the roads became difficult to move.

Thanks to the fact that the construction of Handan City was considered for drainage, there were open channels and several major underground waterways, and it continued to improve many years later. It was rare that there was no waterlogging in later cities, which also gave Wang Li a greater understanding and understanding of this era.

With a car, Wang Li quickly returned to his mansion, said goodbye to Zhao De, and then went to the mansion. Yesterday, he made an appointment with the young masters to attend class at 8 o'clock. Because of the urgent matter today, he made some arrangements when he came out. At this time, he didn't know what the young masters were doing now.

After returning to the mansion, Wang Li headed straight to the inner courtyard.

In a large room in the inner courtyard of Wang Li’s mansion, more than 20 young men were having fun at this time. There were wood of various shapes in the room. Throughout the morning, they were constantly assembling under the guidance of the craftsmen in Wang Li’s mansion.

At this time, stools and tables were assembled by them, and carpenters nailed wooden wedges to complete the entire structure. At this time, they had already begun to enjoy the benefits of these brand new furniture.

"It turns out that the teacher's class is the most interesting. These things that the teacher calls chairs are really comfortable."

Chu Junyan was lying on a recliner, with a long blanket that was properly cut and sewn on a chair. He felt comfortable lying on this blanket that he had never felt before. He had been sitting on a long-term bed, and at most he had sat on a low couch. How could he enjoy this recliner that people from later generations wanted to come out to enjoy? He felt extremely comfortable.

"These chairs are also good. In the past, I always knelt on the ground. Although there were straw mats and blankets, my legs were numb after kneeling for a long time, sour and astringent. It was still comfortable to sit on this chair. It was so easy. If I didn't have to kneel down in the future, I would just sit on this chair."

Gongzipan was also talking about it. In addition to tables and chairs, there were some other utensils here, but it was much more complicated than tables and chairs. They couldn't fit well, so they had to rely on carpenters to make them out.

Looking at the strange wooden tools in the room, they didn't know what they were, but they just thought it was very exquisite. They originally thought it was toys, but the teacher put so much effort into making some toys for them to play with.

At this moment, the door opened, and a few young men near the door called the teacher to come. Everyone's eyes gathered. They saw that Wang Li was still wearing a straw hat and a straw raincoat, and his clothes were covered with mud and water.

When he walked into the room, Wang Li looked around his eyes and saw that when he left the big house, there were still many woods here, and by this time they had turned into various tables and chairs.

There are quite a few craftsmen in this mansion, and their craftsmanship is really good. The tools are simpler than those of colleagues thousands of years later, and the things he made according to the drawings he gave were no worse than those of carpenters in later generations.

When Wang Li came to this mansion that day, the most important blacksmiths in the mansion were all transferred away. The most powerful carpenters were only four, which was to repair the mansion, or make some equipment for their own use or sell them.

However, as soon as Mrs. Ya moved here, she brought all the slaves in her mansion, which was another supplement. Now Wang Li has gathered more than a dozen carpenters here, and his skills have been passed down from generation to generation. The most powerful people will even make some relatively simple siege equipment.

Now, let them make tables and chairs according to the three-dimensional structure full picture he drew with pencils on white paper and the detailed structure diagram when he was not assembled. It was a bit useless. More than a dozen people worked together and made so many in one morning.

In addition to these tables and chairs, there were also piles of other things that were strangely shaped and unknown for their use. "Teacher." When he saw Wang Li come in, the princes bowed to him one by one. Now they have truly recognized Wang Li.

"How did you study this morning?" Wang Li looked at the big room, naturally lined up with students, and asked them with satisfaction.

Gongzipan touched his head, looked at the carpenters around him making corresponding wooden strips, and then the tables and chairs they made were made by them and smiled silly: "What did the teacher ask us to learn? We were very happy all morning."

Mrs. Ni has not married Wang Li yet, and the title of Gongzi Pan and Wang Li is still calling the teacher at this time.

"Haha, I'm very happy to have fun. Teacher, what are you asking us to learn?" The young masters responded in harmony.

Wang Li nodded slightly and pointed to the tables and chairs next to him: "What do you think of these tables and chairs?"

"Very good, very comfortable. I heard that these were taught by the teacher. Does the teacher still know carpenters?" Chu Junyan stood up, there was a recliner here, and he was the one who enjoyed the most.

"As a alchemist, the teacher observes and studies various principles between heaven and earth. I don't know how to use this carpenter, but I can design exquisite utensils. Look at these chairs, why does he look like this? It makes sense. Just talk about this recliner, Shaojun, do you think there is any other chair that will be more comfortable than this chair?"

"Why is this chair more comfortable than other chairs?"

Wang Li asked the group of young men, but how they knew: "I understand. What the teacher wants to teach us today is the reason behind why this chair is more comfortable than other chairs. Teacher, tell us quickly."

"Bang!" Young Master Pan punched the man in the head: "Don't talk nonsense, just listen to the teacher."

"Haha." Wang Li shook his head: "He was right. This chair has a more comfortable reason than other chairs, but this is not what I want to teach you. I will ask you a question now. Who can answer the first one today? If you answer correctly, I will definitely teach him swordsmanship and medicine in six days."

"Really? Then ask, teacher." "Yes, teacher, please ask."

Listening to the fact that as long as the first one answers the question correctly, they can learn swordsmanship in six days. They were all so excited. After Chu Junyan came here today, he kept talking about his glorious record yesterday. He lost more than 20 palace guards in a row. They felt itchy when they heard it.

"In this world, monkeys are very similar to humans, both with hands, eyes, ears, mouths and mouths. There are also communities among them, but what is the biggest difference between humans and monkeys? Who can answer me?"

"The biggest difference between a man and a monkey?" The young men thought randomly, and someone immediately shouted: "Teacher, I know that monkeys have hair all over their bodies and tails, and we don't have one."

"Yes, yes, yes, the monkey has hair and a tail, but we don't have one." The other young masters were immediately annoyed when they heard his answer. You answered too quickly, and we also know these things.

At this moment, Wang Li echoed directly in the room with a "wrong" sound. "Who else wants to answer?"

"Isn't it? What is that?" The young master who just answered the question correctly was as if he had been poured with cold water. His heart was gone. He thought he had answered it correctly.

The other young men were happy when they heard it. If he answered wrong, they would have a chance. But what is the biggest difference between humans and monkeys? Even the obvious difference between hair and tail is not the biggest difference. What is that?

For a moment, the whole house fell into silence. Gongzipan had heard someone answering the question before, thinking that he had answered the question correctly and lost hope. Unexpectedly, such a big difference was wrong. At this time, he began to think hard, but like others, he could not think of a greater difference between monkeys and humans.

Suddenly, his inspiration flashed. "The teacher always makes sense in doing things and does not do meaningless things, so the questions asked by the teacher are very likely to be related to what they played this morning."

He looked at the various tables and stools in the room and was blessed to his heart: "Teacher, I understand."

In an instant, the people in the room, including those craftsmen who were still working, focused their attention on Gongzipan, and they also wanted to know what the biggest difference between a person and a monkey was.

Wang Li nodded and said, "Then you answer."

"Okay, I think the biggest difference between a man and a monkey is that monkeys can't build houses, monkeys can't build tables and chairs, monkeys can't build weapons, monkeys can't cook, monkeys can't farm, all of us can do, so monkeys are wild animals, but we are similar to them, but they are humans, teacher, are you right?"

The young master answered, and the young masters were stunned. Is this the biggest difference?

"The answer is good." Wang Li smiled and said, "This is what I want to tell you today."

He pointed to the stools and tables and said, "We humans are extremely fragile in the whole world, and there are more beasts stronger than us, but now, our entire humans are the strongest existence in this world."

"We don't have the sharp minions of beasts, but we can make weapons. We don't have the powerful beasts. But we can create traps. We will practice targeted ways to catch wild animals. When the rain and wind blow, we will build houses. If the raw food is not delicious, we will make a fire and cook."

"Why can a person be so weak but so powerful? It is by our ability to observe the principles between heaven and earth, use the principles between heaven and earth, and then use it to change oneself and the ability of heaven and earth."

"Our plows can plow the land, we dig ditches, drain water and irrigation, we make cars and horses, so that we can travel to and from all countries without walking. Look at this ability, which monkey has, not only monkeys do not have, but no other beasts do. This is the reason why we humans are humans, not beasts."

"This is what I want to teach you today. Tell me, do you understand? Do you understand what I want to teach you today?"

After Wang Li's words, all the young masters fell into deep thought. They never thought that there was such a truth in the life in front of them.
