Chapter 22
After the group of people gathered, they began to rush back in a hurry.
At this time, the sun was already very west, and there were only two hours before the setting. If you could not rush home before dark, the beasts in the mountains would be a serious threat.
Fortunately, when I went back, I brought a lot less things. Only a few hundred kilograms of lean meat were left, and hundreds of kilograms of lean meat were sold. At this time, there were more than two stones of grain and some small things, so everyone was much more relaxed. Therefore, there was not much talk along the way, and they carried food in turn and rushed forward. After more than an hour, they walked almost two-thirds of the road, only six or seven miles away from the village. Therefore, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and slowly slowed down.
When Chen Xu arrived here, he was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, his legs were as if he was filled with lead, and he felt sweaty all over when he took a step. At the same time, he also expressed his serious protest and contempt for the habit of only eating two meals a day.
The tradition of ordinary people eating only two meals a day was very old, and it continued until the Ming and Qing dynasties. It was mainly the habit of ancient people working at sunrise and resting at sunset. Breakfast time was arranged at around 9 am, which was called morning food. After eating, they started to work. Before the sun set in the afternoon, they ate dinner at about four or five o'clock, which was called feeding, also known as Shen food, which means the meal that they ate in the afternoon. After dinner, they packed up and took a shower. The weather was almost dark, and then they went to bed. Because there were no lights, no TVs, and no entertainment facilities and projects such as bars and nightclubs. Therefore, in addition to being able to rest, couples were entertained on the bed, and single dogs could only entertain themselves.
"Brother Xu, you just asked the master to make a big iron pot for you, why don't you ask him to make a copper pot for you? It's simple and convenient..." Niu Dashi walked beside him and asked while gnawing on a sour wild fruit.
"The copper pot is poisonous, so don't cook it in the future!" Chen Xu replied weakly.
"What? Is the copper pot poisonous?" Not only Niu Dashi was surprised that the wild fruit almost fell off, but the other villagers were also puzzled and began to ask why.
Why can't bronze pots be used to cook?
Even if this problem is placed more than two thousand years later until the end of the twentieth century, many people may still not understand it.
But in the 21st century, when Western medicine began to flourish, the concept of metal poisoning was gradually accepted.
The main components of bronze alloys are copper and tin, but they also contain lead, aluminum, beryllium, manganese, chromium, phosphorus and other elements. Many of them, including copper, are poisonous metals. Foods made from cooking utensils that consume bronze for a long time will gradually become poisoned by metals, especially copper and lead.
Before the Qin and Han dynasties, the richer the people would use bronze utensils, such as cauldrons, cauldrons, cauldrons, cauldrons, cauldrons, lords, and lords. Only princes, nobles and wealthy families could use pottery pots.
Chen Xu even suspected that the reason why ancient people didn’t live long was not only because of food shortages, low levels of war and medical treatment, but also because of the chronic heavy metal poisoning caused by the extensive use of bronze ware to steam and store food.
Anyway, Chen Xu didn't explain to a group of rural bullies what metal poisoning is, and he couldn't explain it clearly. If you say that copper is poisonous, they would ask why iron is not poisonous.
But Chen Xu's recent series of performances have also given the villagers a little respect and fear.
"Xiao Xu said that it is poisonous, so it is poisonous. Don't use it for everyone in the future!" Uncle Ma made the final decision and forced everyone's questions.
"We can't afford to use it even if we want to use it!" A villager said with a smile, "I can't even afford a pottery basin in my family. I heard that only the men in the city can use it!"
"Hehe, I hope all the bullshit masters will be poisoned to death!" Niu Dashi said with green foam all over his mouth.
Jealousy is a naked mentality of hating the rich!
Chen Xu looked at Niu Dashi with disdain. He had a great gap with this poor family, who was ugly and timid and very hateful to the rich. If it is possible in the future, he should try his best to change his brother-in-law. For example, Xiang Yu is a good candidate. He is not only brave but also never leaves his own woman. He also brought Yu Ji before his death, but he hasn't met him yet.
I don’t know how beautiful that Yu Ji is, which makes a generation of heroes, Xi Chu, unable to let go of her until she dies, and even has to die with her.
Yu Ji, based on her age, she should...is almost the same now...
Chen Xu calculated in his mind for a long time but could not figure out whether Yu Ji was born.
Because historical books only record that Yu Ji was a beautiful woman with a splendid birth date and horoscope, because of her unparalleled appearance and elegant dance, she was favored by Xiang Yu. When the King of Western Chu was surrounded by enemies and had nowhere to escape, Yu Meiren still refused to leave Xiang Yu, and finally died in order not to drag Xiang Yu down and committed suicide. This is the story of the famous King of Farewell My Concubine in history.
As the saying goes, a gentleman does not win over what he loves, but perhaps Yu Ji has not been born yet, and he doesn't know Xiang Yu at all.
Xiang Yu is only about ten years old now. Well, he is more compatible with his sister. At least he is more than a hundred times better than the guy who is walking beside him who is silly and chewing the whole frog with a mouth full of chewing green bubbles and cooking the whole frog and is already fourteen years old. He is full of his mind and is trying hard to ruin his sister and keep making babies.
Therefore, as soon as Chen Xu thought of marrying his sister to Xiang Yu, he felt that he could no longer hold back his coffin board in later generations after more than two thousand years of time and space, and he had to jump up and drink a glass of wedding wine to be quiet.
If the sister married Xiang Yu, how should the next battle between Chu and Han be defeated?
Can you help your brother-in-law win Liu Bang and finally establish a strong Chu Empire?
And... Will Xiang Yu, a guy who doesn't like reading and develops his limbs, get to know Yu Meiren and abuse or even abandon his sister, and then even make himself crack?
This is very likely. Men are all animals that rely on their lower body to think, especially when they are young. When they wake up every morning, their thoughts will be simple and direct.
If this happens, would you cut off the possibility of Xiang Yu and Yu Ji's relationship? Find the woman named Yu Ji in advance? Well, you may not be born yet, but you must prevent problems before it happens. Moreover, the military strategy says: Those who do not plan for the moment do not plan for the rest of their lives. For the sake of the happiness of their sister and the long-term stability of their future family, find Yu Ji in advance and... take it for yourself...
Chen Xu was very confused. Is it too careless to take this approach for himself?
Others may not be born yet, or they may be only one or two years old or even a few months old.
Along the way, Chen Xu's head was like a computer with a virus. The operating system began to be confused, and his ideas were endless.
Then he had not thought it clearly and realized that as several villagers shouted excitedly, after turning a corner, he had already seen a small river at the foot of the mountain and more than ten thatched huts scattered among the green trees.
