Chapter 280
At this moment, Ying Zheng was furious to the extreme!
But soon, he realized a problem: can things scraped from the latrine lead to longevity?
He was shocked!
He couldn't help but swallow hard!
But the next second, he couldn't help but shake his head!
Who said the saltpeter used in immortal pills must be for eating?
That's right!
Saltpeter can be used to make gunpowder; maybe it's used to start a fire?
Or maybe it's used elsewhere?
Ying Zheng thought in his heart, but at this moment, he didn't dare to be sure, so he looked at Dai Xin and continued to ask:
"Without saltpeter, can't you make pills?"
"Hmm?"
At these words, Dai Xin was stunned; he didn't understand how Ying Zheng connected saltpeter with immortal pills.
But he was a person from later generations, so he quickly understood!
In that instant, he smiled directly and told Ying Zheng: "No!"
"What did you say?"
Ying Zheng was furious!
Dai Xin said: "Those so-called longevity pills are all deceiving you; there is no such thing as longevity pills in this world!"
"And you! You are destined not to have longevity!"
"Likewise, the future of this Great Qin belongs to the Emperor!"
"What?"
"You are bold!"
Ying Zheng was furious and drew his sword, about to stab Dai Xin!
However... Dai Xin ran away immediately, smiled at Ying Zheng from afar, and then ran far away!
"You... you..."
Looking at the departing Dai Xin, Ying Zheng was furious!
But likewise, he also understood that his plan to win over Dai Xin had failed!
This Dai Xin could never betray Ying Su!
"I don't believe that if Dai Xin refuses to betray that rebellious son, others won't betray him either!"
Ying Zheng was furious and then went to the paper factory!
Paper!
This is a divine object!
It is no exaggeration to say that the reason Ying Su was able to maintain the normal operation of the country after usurping the throne, and even raise so many troops, relied almost entirely on paper!
This thing fascinated Ying Zheng.
And the moment he entered the paper factory, he couldn't help but swallow hard!
Because... there was too much paper here.
And there were many types, including linen paper, grass paper, and Xuan paper!
Among them, he had seen linen paper and grass paper, but... Xuan paper was not circulating outside at all!
How was this thing made?
He was very shocked, looked at a piece of Xuan paper again and again, and finally looked at Cai Lun!
Cai Lun didn't hide anything and told Ying Zheng the production method of grass paper and Xuan paper!
And told him the differences between the three types of paper.
And after learning the manufacturing process of these three types of paper, Ying Zheng was shocked again and nodded in praise to Cai Lun: "Amazing!"
However, what shocked him most was the so-called printing room!
He couldn't have imagined that a book as thick as the Analects could be printed in less than a quarter of an hour!
He couldn't have imagined that this kind of movable type printing could be so convenient!
He was shocked and couldn't help but sigh that this thing was truly an artifact for earning money!
However, whether it was papermaking or printing, none had as much impact on Ying Zheng as porcelain!
Before this, he had long seen porcelain and had always praised its beauty.
However... when he saw someone actually using this thing to eat, and even make tea, he was stunned!
"A waste of heaven's gifts! A waste of heaven's gifts!"
"This thing sells for five hundred coins outside, and you use it to eat and drink water?"
Ying Zheng was quite angry!
However... the person just glanced at him, showing a look of looking at a country bumpkin!
This made Ying Zheng even more angry!
However... when he saw everyone here using porcelain to eat and even drink water, he was stunned and immediately ordered Zhao Gao to bring the manager here!
He wanted to ask the manager here how he could let everyone here use such a divine object to eat and drink water!
Ying Zheng was furious beyond measure!
Soon, Tang Ying came over!
First he bowed to Ying Zheng, and when faced with Ying Zheng's questioning, he began to answer!
And when Ying Zheng learned that the cost of these things was not expensive!
One coin could make three coarse porcelain bowls, Ying Zheng was shocked and swallowed hard!
He didn't expect this thing to be so cheap.
"Then why is it sold so expensively outside?"
Ying Zheng asked angrily, but as soon as he asked this, he shook his head!
Of course it was Ying Su trying to make money!
To maintain the operation of a country and support so many troops, where didn't he need money?
And porcelain was naturally a good thing for making money!
He sighed!
And before he could say his guess, Tang Ying shook his head!
"Porcelain is divided into coarse porcelain and fine porcelain, and also into painted porcelain and white porcelain. The more exquisite the porcelain, the higher the cost and the more complex the craftsmanship, so naturally, the more expensive it is!"
He gave a simple introduction, and Ying Zheng nodded while listening!
"Then in that case, the rebellious son isn't cheating those people outside?"
"This..."
Tang Ying smiled without saying a word!
Ying Zheng didn't care about him, but stared at every piece of porcelain here, and finally, couldn't put it down!
When he left, he originally wanted to take a few good-looking pieces of porcelain as decorations, but Tang Ying had already prepared them!
He directly had people bring out two large boxes and an iron pot!
"This is..."
Ying Zheng looked at Tang Ying in confusion!
Tang Ying said: "These things were all given to you by the Emperor. He said that it is not good to often use copper utensils to eat and drink water. In the future, it is best to use porcelain for eating and drinking water, and try to use iron pots for cooking, not copper!"
After he finished speaking, he pointed to another large box and opened it: "This was also given to you by the Emperor!"
"Likewise, there is a set of tea sets in here, which the Emperor specially ordered me to refine for you. It is a full set of purple clay, which has more flavor than copper pots and wine cups!"
"After you go back, you can try it!"
He said, and these words directly stunned Ying Zheng!
"This... this rebellious son, actually gave me these things?"
He was surprised, and at this moment, looking at the things in front of him, he felt a bit moved!
But... this emotion lasted less than two seconds before it turned into fury!
"Humph! My imperial throne was snatched away by him; what does it matter if he gives me a few things?"
He thought this in his heart, and cursed angrily:
