Chapter 191 Shan Xiongxin’s Late-Night Mentor! 【Ask for Monthly Ticket】
"This chocolate cake tastes good. I have to save it for my master."
Mu Guiying dug out a piece with a plastic spoon and tasted it. She quickly closed the lid and put it away, planning to take it back to her empress to taste.
Well, apart from being annoying with her words, this crazy girl is still very filial.
She tasted several other cakes and sealed them all:
"They are all Master's favorite flavors. I'd rather eat bread. What do you call this kind of bread that is divided into two halves and filled with butter? It's so delicious. I can't get enough of it every time."
Diao Chan ate the lipstick velvet cake and said quietly:
"It's called... a caterpillar."
Mu Guiying quickly put down the bread in her hand and asked with disbelief:
"This doesn't look like a caterpillar. Why do you give it such a name? No, I have to find Master quickly to clear this memory of mine."
After saying that, she hurriedly cleared the food and drink on the table, stuffed Li Yu's letter into her arms, and hurried away without even bothering to eat dinner.
Are you so afraid of caterpillars? Is this a BUG deliberately set by the empress, or is God playing tricks on me?
But it would be nice to be able to clean up my memory, but it's a pity that it can't be used in the real world. Otherwise, I would ask my empress to delete all the embarrassing memories of me, leaving only the scene of the graceful jade tree facing the wind.
Diao Chan took two more bites of cake and asked about campus life:
"Sir, if I go to school, do I have to learn from scratch how to get along with teachers, classmates, and roommates?"
Li Yu picked up a cup of Four Seasons Fruit Tea and took a sip:
"This shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"
Diao Chan puffed up her cheeks:
"It's really not difficult, but I just want to be a lazy little girl next to my husband and don't want to use my brain... Moreover, dealing with these relationships is very troublesome and affects my studies. Is this what the Internet calls useless socializing?"
Li Yu recalled his college life and found that it was indeed full of useless social interactions.
For example, student union activities, messy associations, various sign-ins, etc. Most of the time is spent dealing with different people, and there is not much time for learning knowledge.
This may be the meaning of university, to enter a small society in advance, and only after graduation can you adapt to the big society.
Of course, there are people who devote themselves to studying the books of saints and sages. They are basically academic masters and masters. They don't have to worry about anything and just study every day. After graduation, they will continue to take the postgraduate entrance examination and then the doctoral examination.
Thinking of this, Li Yu said to the little girl:
"College not only provides all kinds of knowledge, but it is also a preview of getting familiar with society in advance. You can hang out for four years, study for four years, or even stay in the dormitory and play games for four years... The key lies in your choice. You don't like those useless social interactions. , just don’t participate.”
"So it can still be like this...those activities and so on, can you refuse?"
Li Yu put down the fruit tea and said seriously to Diao Chan:
"Remember Xiaochan, no matter who makes a request to you in this world, including me, as long as you don't like it, you can refuse it. You don't have to consider other factors. If you don't like it, just refuse it. The more decisive the better."
"Thank you, sir."
The little girl thanked her seriously. From the Three Kingdoms to now, others have been teaching her to be obedient. Only Li Yu told her that she could refuse if she didn't like it.
I wonder if my husband would be angry if I asked to refuse school... Diao Chan took two more bites of the cake and was just about to tease Li Yu when Mu Guiying came back:
"Haha, we finally got the coal mine. Come on, come on, let me project the screen to the TV to show you the coal mine in Mukezhai. We have completely banned charcoal and will only burn coal from now on..."
"Hey, didn't you just say this?"
Li Yu and Diao Chan looked at each other. Is this bandit really unable to remember? Isn’t the empress too powerful?
Mu Guiying saw the two people's reactions and asked tentatively:
"I was here just now?"
Diao Chan nodded and pointed to the half piece of tiramisu on the table:
"This is what you have left."
Upon hearing this, Mu Guiying picked up the rest of the tiramisu and ate it all, and said with some surprise:
"Wow, it's delicious. This is delicious. Do you have any more?"
Your Majesty actually deleted your memory of those cakes?
After Mu Guiying finished tiramisu, she picked up the caterpillar bread again and said with a smile:
"This sandwiched butter bun is delicious. I can't get enough of it every time. Fairy Little Cicada, you won't eat it, right? Then I'm not welcome!"
Diao Chan blinked:
"Why don't you ask the name of this bread?"
"I don't know. I feel like something bad will happen if I ask. Isn't my name a bad one? Sandwich butter bun, how cute."
After saying that, Mu Guiying took a big bite and ate it happily.
Good guy, the empress not only deleted her memory, she even added countermeasures.
My old mother is amazing!
After finishing the bread, Mu Guiying took out her mobile phone and showed Li Yu the newly acquired coal mine.
Of course, the coal mines still claimed to belong to the Song Dynasty, and the coal diggers inside were all prisoners or corvées.
Mu Guiying planned to select some capable people from these people for his own use, and use food to increase their work enthusiasm.
After watching the video, Li Yu said to Mu Guiying:
"You can try making coke. Pay attention to controlling the temperature. With coke, steelmaking will no longer be difficult... Are there any iron ores near you?"
"Yes, but the quality is not very good. We are going to collect some scrap iron to try first."
Bad quality?
How about getting something from the real world?
Li Yu scratched his head and thought that he could open a scrap collection station, so that the raw materials for the incendiary bottles would be solved and there would be a place to deal with scrap iron and so on.
It can not only help deal with garbage in the real world, but also solve the resource problem in Muke Village in the early stage.
More importantly, no one pays attention to the scrap station, let alone checking the whereabouts of various scraps. It is a good industry to hide the secrets of B&Bs.
How about setting up a scrapyard at the foot of the mountain?
There is a large open space between the scenic spot and Shitou Village. Wang Shengli would definitely not refuse to rent it to open a scrap collection station.
Moreover, with the scrap station, the elderly people in the village who like to pick up garbage also have an additional channel to exchange money.
Well, I'll hold a meeting in a few days to listen to everyone's opinions.
If she really wants to open a scrapyard, she must first buy a truck and teach Mu Guiying to drive it. Then she can load the truck with scrap metal and drive it away without having to dump it.
In addition, you have to ask professionals whether the scrap iron can be used to make steel. If not, then find a way to buy some iron blocks and transport them back.
It seems that they can be purchased from small steel plants, which is very convenient.
"Now the four brick kilns in the village are in operation. Each kiln can burn tens of thousands of bricks. They all say that the brick molds you bought are easy to use."
After the Mukezhai Brick Kiln was put into production, Li Yu bought a batch of tools for making bricks. At that time, he just wanted to get some molds for everyone, so that the workers would not have to fiddle with them piece by piece with their hands.
If you are not limited by electricity, you can actually buy a modern brick kiln equipment to continuously produce clay bricks.
Unfortunately, this equipment not only consumes electricity, but also requires high quality of operators, so Mukezhai will not be able to use it in a short time.
"Don't just burn the bricks, but also the tiles. Aren't we here to give you a quick operation process for building a house? Each house has three small tile-roofed houses with a small yard and unified doors. The more regular it is, the better it will be. Save land.”
Mu Guiying took her mobile phone and quickly recorded Li Yu's words:
"That's how we repaired it. The interior and exterior walls were painted white and the houses were laid with bricks. One kiln of bricks can probably build two houses...According to the current construction progress, all the houses will definitely be repaired before winter."
That's good, at least the people in the village won't get cold this year.
Seeing that it was almost time, the three of them went downstairs to the restaurant to eat.
Today’s dinner is relatively simple: stewed beef shank. The beef shank that Zhao Dahu had troubled was used. It was stewed during lunch and has not been taken out of the pot until now.
Mu Guiying was not afraid of being burned. She took a big bite of a piece of beef and shouted:
"It's delicious. I just like the feeling of eating meat."
Shan Xiong responded and said:
"The taste is really good, but it's a bit wasteful."
He held the wine glass and clinked it with Zhao Dahu, drank it happily, and then had a big mouthful of beef, it was so satisfying!
Li Yu cooked a bowl of hollow noodles, poured a ladle of the original beef soup on it, placed a few slices of beef, and gave it to the little Diao Chan who was waiting to eat the beef noodles:
"If you like spicy food, you can add some chili oil. It should taste good."
"That's for sure. After all, Li Xianchang cooked the noodles himself, and the taste is definitely extraordinary."
The little girl stuck out her tongue naughtily, poured some chili oil into the bowl, added some vinegar, stirred it, picked up the noodles, took a sip, and gave a thumbs up:
"It's really delicious. I feel like this is the right way to open beef noodles. The beef I had in the city last time was cut too thin, and it wasn't as satisfying as the large slices of beef."
Li Yu took a piece of beef knee and took a big bite:
"Tomorrow we will have cold skin for lunch. For those who don't like it cold, I can stir-fry some of it and make it into stir-fried cold skin."
As soon as he heard that there was Liangpier, Mu Guiying immediately counted the time with his fingers, took out his phone and set an alarm, intending to come here in time to avoid missing out on the delicious food.
Well, if there are too many, bring some more to Master. She will definitely not know what Liangpier is, which means you can only eat it if you touch my light.
After the meal, Shan Xiongxin went to the backyard to feed the horse, add water, and walked around the observation deck before returning to the warehouse, ready to continue watching videos and learning modern knowledge.
But as soon as he lay down on the bed, he caught a glimpse of the jujube jujube lying next to him. Taking advantage of the strength of the wine, he got up and carried the eight-foot-long jujube to the center of the warehouse. Holding it with both hands, he performed a family tradition of jujube.
When he was sweating slightly from practicing, Shan Xiongxin leaned on his long arm and murmured to himself:
"It's a pity that all the skills are of no use. Can Shan only live in Master Li until he grows old?"
He is actually very satisfied with life in modern society, but compared with the past, there is less stimulation of gratification and grudges. In modern society, let alone killing people with long spears, you will not encounter them even in fights.
The boring old Dan had no choice but to practice martial arts in the warehouse in front of the fluorescent lights inside.
After taking a breath, he continued to practice with his long arm in hand. While he was busy, a burst of applause suddenly sounded in the warehouse:
"Old Dan, your martial arts looks good, but why is your performance so poor in the book?"
Shan Xiongxin turned around and found that Lu Bu was wearing a scribe's robe and looking at him with a smile but not a smile.
He put away his long spear, recalled the memory of fighting with others, and said with a wry smile:
"Is it possible that a certain skill is inferior to others?"
As the ceiling of the Three Kingdoms' combat power, Lu Bu is still very authoritative in this regard. He said:
"I think you had too few opportunities to fight against masters, and no one gave you any advice, so you took action rashly and couldn't control the rhythm."
In the original work of "The Legend of the Rising Tang Dynasty", Qin Qiong led the Wagangzhai army to fight against Zuo Tiancheng, the commander-in-chief of Sishui Pass. The five tiger generals Xie Yingdeng, Wang Bodang, You Junda, Wang Junke, and Shan Xiongxin were all defeated, but in the end they were defeated. .
Wang Junke, who had the best record, only lasted more than 20 rounds.
When Shan Xiongxin came on the stage, if the fight was one move at a time, it would definitely not be a problem to last for one or twenty rounds. However, he wanted to find another way to compete with Zuo Tiancheng for strength. In the end, he only lasted two rounds and his hands were torn apart.
Xie Yingdeng and the others have already tested Zuo Tiancheng's ability both offensively and defensively, and are powerful. If they try harder at this time, they won't be aiming at others' guns.
When Lu Bu read this before, he thought Shan Xiongxin was an idiot.
But judging from the routines he just practiced, he performed well, and some of his moves even had merit.
This shows that Lao Dan has strength, but he has not shown it. In other words, he lacks fighting skills and does not know when to use what move.
As one of the top military commanders of the Three Kingdoms, Lu Bu was a real skilled man. Seeing that Shan Xiongxin was a little disappointed, he took the initiative to ask:
"Old Dan, how about I give you some tricks?"
Shan Xiongxin opened his mouth. It was natural to be happy to be fed by the number one war god of the Three Kingdoms, but would this delay Wen Hou too much?
He bowed his hands and said hesitantly:
"Marquis Wen has so many things to do, if he wastes his time on Shan..."
"What are you talking about? We are a family. How can we say it is a waste to increase the strength of our family? Go and take off your shirt. I will go back and find a weapon to play with you."
After saying that, Lu Bu returned to the world of the Three Kingdoms.
In the world of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, although Shan Xiongxin was aloof, he had little say. Especially among the Forty-Six Friends, no one ever considered his feelings.
However, Lu Bu, whom he had just met for a few days, was always considerate of him, which moved Lao Dan deeply.
No wonder everyone in the B&B was so harmonious. It turned out that everyone really regarded each other as family... In order to live up to Lu Bu's guidance, he took off his clothes without saying a word, leaving only a pair of pants.
As soon as he tightened his belt, Lu Bu came back with a long spear whose red tassel was almost gone:
"I wanted to use a halberd, but I thought you couldn't bear the weight, so I asked for Wei Xu's spear... This brat doesn't care about weapons at all. A good spear will be buried like the one unearthed in the Qin Dynasty."
Lu Bu has been exposed to modern society more often, and Lu Bu is also proficient in various modern vocabulary.
For example, the word "mitai" has become a buzzword in Bingzhou Army recently.
Seeing Shan Xiongxin shirtless, Lu Bu grabbed his spear and made a gesture:
"Brother Shan, come and attack. I think we can find some flaws."
Shan Xiongxin knew that this opportunity was rare, so he gathered his thoughts, held the 18-foot-long Zaoyang tree in both hands, suddenly rushed towards Lu Bu, and began to attack!
"Hey!"
There was a sound of metal collision, and Lu Bu easily blocked Shan Xiongxin's attack. Then the tip of his gun shook and went straight to Lao Dan's throat.
But when Shan Xiongxin blocked, the spear changed direction and hit his calf, causing him to suddenly fall to the ground.
"Old Dan, haven't you ever fought with anyone? Come again!"
In this way, the two of them started sparring in the warehouse until after ten o'clock. Li Yu and Wu Song were patrolling the B&B with flashlights. When they heard something moving in the warehouse, they opened the door and came in, interrupting their sparring.
"Brother, do you have anything to eat?"
After more than two hours of sparring, Shan Xiongxin's combat awareness has obviously improved a lot. Lu Bu is also shirtless, and has become more serious than just strolling around in the courtyard.
Shan Xiongxin put away his long spear, raised his hands and saluted Lu Bu:
"Thank you Marquis Wen for your advice, Shan will keep it in mind!"
Lu Bu wiped his sweat with his clothes:
"I have told you so many times that there is no need to thank my family... Erlang is not busy giving tricks to Brother Shan and Erlang. The heroes who come out of our B&B, no matter how strong they are, must have top-notch fighting consciousness."
Wu Song quickly agreed:
"Little brother, I obey!"
Li Yu didn't expect that this guy would take some time out of his busy schedule to practice martial arts with Shan Xiongxin for several hours:
"I stewed a beef leg today, and there's still a lot left in the pot. I'll heat it up for you... Let's go, eat and drink enough, take a bath, and sleep better."
When they arrived at the restaurant, Li Yu heated up the beef shank, cut some braised meat and brought it out for them to eat, then mixed two small cold dishes and filled a plate with fried peanuts.
Wu Song opened the bottle of Luzhou and filled the wine glasses for several people.
Li Yu didn't want to drink at first, but the atmosphere was so intense that he had to grab two cans of beer to accompany him.
After taking a few sips, she remembered that Diao Chan was still in the study waiting to correct her homework, so she quickly sent her a message and asked the little girl to go back to her room to rest first, and we would discuss the homework tomorrow.
"Old Dan, your strength is no worse than anyone else's. Don't belittle yourself. Practice more. Once the moves become your subconscious reaction, you will be good at it."
Shan Xiongxin was about to say thank you when he thought of Lu Bu's previous words, nodded and said:
"Shan will practice more."
When the beef leg was served, Lu Bu asked Wu Song about his driving lessons:
"Is it difficult to learn?"
"It's not difficult. It's much easier than I imagined. When I get my driver's license, I will buy a car and take everyone out for a ride."
Lu Bu held up a piece of beef leg and took a bite:
"Then I'll wait for you, brother. Come on, boss, and quickly integrate into this society."
The group of people ate and drank until late at night. Lu Bu returned drunkenly carrying Wei Xu's spear. Shan Xiongxin took a bath, recalled the experience of fighting Lu Bu, practiced for a while, and then went back to the iron room to sleep.
In the early morning, when Li Yu was running, Shan Xiongxin also followed him. In order to strengthen his body, he specially put on the cavalry armor that weighed thirty or forty kilograms.
After returning from running, Shan Xiongxin went to the gym again and did some stretching, squats and other movements under Li Yu's guidance. Then he washed his face, greeted everyone, and started eating breakfast.
Seeing that Zhao Dahu was there, Shan Xiongxin sat over with a bowl:
"Brother Dahu, can you help me build a set of weights? I want to wear them for running and strengthen my body... If I can make it, money is not an issue."
Zhao Dahu took a big bite of the fried dough stick:
"There is no need to use weights to strengthen your body. I have a better way. Just follow me and make iron. I guarantee you will be stronger than an ox!"
