Therefore, this can only be regarded as a ceremonial procedure and will be continued later.

After taking the call, Long Changqi asked to resign. Su Xun politely expressed condolences and Long Changqi agreed and went to the dressing area to wait.

Afterwards, Su Xun led Su You to the ancestral hall. Su Xun stood in front of the incense table in the ancestral hall and said goodbye, "Su Jiazi You, I have finished my crown today. I dare you to see me."

Su You stepped forward and stood between the two steps and bowed again.

After worshiping the ancestors, it is time to worship the parents. If the parents are not around, pray to the gods.

The altars of Su You's parents are placed in the hall facing south, with the uncles and brothers in the east sequence, the uncles facing south, and the brothers facing west; the women in the west sequence, the aunts and uncles facing south, and the sisters-in-law facing east.

Su You faced north and bowed to his parents, and Su Xun helped them up.

Then, on behalf of Su You's parents, he took Su You to his eighth master's room to worship him.

Hachiko was wearing new clothes and was accompanied by Su Xiaomei and Shi Wei.

The two girls watched through the window, then chirped and reported the progress to Hachigong.

Shi Wei said what Brother Xiaoyou is doing now and what Chief Long Shan is doing. Su Xiaomei explained which step this is and what other steps are left.

Su You came in, knelt down in front of Hachi Gong, and kowtowed three times respectfully, "Eight Gong, Su You is a stubborn person. Over the past nine years, he has been nurtured lovingly by Hachi Gong and has become a man. There is no greater kindness in the world than this. Today Su You has grown up.

From now on, it's up to Wei'er and I to take care of you."

Hachiko helped Su You up and trembled his lips as he tried to speak, "You kid, what are you talking about? Go quickly... go and finish the ceremony first. Huh?"

Su You nodded, "Hachigong, please sit down for a moment and I will be with you in a moment."

Hachiko waved his hand, "Go quickly, go quickly, don't keep the guests waiting."

Su You returned to the east-west sequence and bowed to relatives and friends in each row, and all relatives and friends responded.

The ceremony is coming to an end, and the next step is the concierge.

Su Xun held the wine and saluted Long Changqi and Tang Yan.

Then he offered deer skins, coins, and silk as a reward and thanked him.

After that, Su You went to see Mr. Yuxiang and his father's friends and paid homage to Cheng Wenying, Shi Dongxiu, Shi Fu, Shi Kuan, Zhang Shu and others.

When everyone bowed, another explanation was inevitable.

Su You respectfully agreed, and then bowed again, but this time Lao Cheng and Lao Shi did not need to bow again.

At this time, Su You's crowning ceremony was finally over. It was rare for everyone to arrive so well, so what followed was a banquet.

Hachiko was taken out and sat at the head of the banquet, surrounded by a circle of literati, and sat on the wax again.

Fortunately, the literati had many comments about the dishes on the table and the fine wines during the banquet, so Hachiko could also introduce the dishes and talk about wine, and finally we had something to talk about.

Su You was led by Su Shi and went to each table to toast in turn.

What made Su You depressed was that no one at the wine table recognized him as an adult. Yongchun Dew could not be Yongchun Dew. Children could only drink glutinous rice wine instead of wine.

After the crowning ceremony, Su You played seriously and relaxed with the children of Tutu Temple for a few days, and then began to inspect the many industries in Meishan.

What makes him most happy is that the things he invented are now used in all aspects by Meishan Workshop. No one is a fool.

For example, wine shops use brass thin pipes and faucets.

For example, silk dyes are extracted with alcohol.

For example, for books, a punching machine with a spring is used.

For example, on porcelain, I started to try using colored glaze to draw patterns.

The Meishan-type sailboat has large transport capacity, fast speed, solid structure and simple operation, and has been highly praised by the family.

On the Jiangtan Pier, four more keels were set up. This time they were larger, with five masts and four foresails, for a total of nine sails.

All parameters are officially adopted Meishan weights and measures, the length reaches 38 meters, the normal operation of the boat is 12 people, and the load is 500 tons!

Su You did not intervene in all of this. He only gave a reminder, and someone else would explore the rest and apply it to production.

Su You looked at the keel of the big ship and was frightened. "Brother-in-law, take it easy. Kuimen is a dangerous place in the world. It would be more appropriate to build such a big ship below Kuimen..."

Cheng Wenying smiled and said, "That section does not rely on a big sail. It only uses a foresail and a fiber rope. You can walk slowly over it. After passing Kuimen, you can go straight down to Jiangling and Liangzhe... There are silk, deerskin, grain, and thieves there."

Cheap!"

After saying that, he raised his feet and said, "Look, moccasins are popular now!"

Damn, Su You was stunned. These were actually a pair of leather shoes similar to later generations' lazy shoes, and they were made of nubuck leather.

"What sole?" Su You didn't care about the uppers. After being shocked, Su You just wanted to know how Meishan craftsmen solved the problem of the soles.

However, he was disappointed again. It was not rubber, but leather, but the leather used for the soles was very thick. Su You could tell at a glance, "You made it with my press!"

Cheng Wenying chuckled and said, "Expressing oil alone is a waste. Use glue and leather, press and glue multiple layers, and then use thread to reinforce it. You can make it as thick as you want. Such soles are very popular. Banniang came up with it. Isn't it amazing?"

"

Su You pouted, "Shoes with non-waterproof soles are just rogues."

Cheng Wenying defended his granddaughter-in-law, "Who said they are not waterproof? The leather used to press the soles is soaked with tung paint, and after being pressed, it is very dense. There are also paint seals on the edges of the shoes. As long as they are not soaked in water from morning to night.

, if you deal with some small ditches and puddles, there won’t be any problem.”

Su You was happy this time, "Give me a few pairs! I can even take them to Chengdu as gifts!"

…

Before February arrived, Su You returned to Chengdu.

After packing his luggage and walking with the steps of an adult scholar, Su You walked into the state capital with his head held high.

The clerks, attendants, and Guan Gou along the way saw this and they all clicked their tongues and put on their futou. The two magpie tails on the back of the head were bit by bit. The young man's demeanor was different...

Zhang Fangping was crossing his legs and looking curiously at the deerskin shoes on his feet. He even reached out to pick at the seams. When he saw Su You coming over with this pie, he couldn't help but smile and said, "How can your aunt find such a good thing for you?"

Little Futou.”

Su You looked at the leather boots on Zhang Fangping's feet and said, "Chamois, these are the top quality from Meishan. Where did you get them? They are better than the ones I brought you...Wait a minute...Give me that gift."

, are you also causing trouble behind?"

Zhang Fangping ignored this and patted his boots lovingly, "Humans, it is easy to become inert. Once you get convenience once, you will inevitably think about this convenience again. Don't you think so?"

Su You was very confused, "What do you mean?"

Zhang Fangping sighed, "I may have to return to the court this year. Most likely it will be the Third Secretary."

Su You cupped his hands and said, "Congratulations to Mr. Ming... It seems that "On Finance" has been taken seriously?"

Zhang Fangping stood up and walked back and forth to try on the shoes. "I am a Jinshi scholar. Even if the third minister is over, I really have no confidence in whether this financial theory can be spread."

After saying that, he stood still and said, "It's always a natural deficiency..."

Su You still didn't understand, "What does this... have to do with my crowning ceremony?"

Zhang Fangping smiled and said, "Maybe I'm overthinking it. I think you might be able to do it."

Su You rolled his eyes and said, "You can't do it, how can I?"

Zhang Fangping said, "Now that there are four roads plus Erlin Dali, the finance of this small circle has begun to circulate. If no external force disrupts it, the flow of water will become more and more abundant. Driven by this general trend, great governance in the southwest can already be expected."

.”

After saying this, he stopped and said, "Do you dare to say that without any guidance, it just happened naturally?"

Su You said, "I am Jiang Qing of Meishan..."

Zhang Fangping tilted his head and looked at him with a half-smile.

Su You suddenly felt a little frustrated, "Okay, maybe, maybe... it has something to do with me."

Zhang Fangping laughed loudly, "This is why I don't recommend you to Ouyang, the old stickman. You and I, Lao Zhang, are in the same boat."

"Therefore, from today on, you must study hard. If you are not sure, you would rather not take the exam. If you want to take the exam, you must be sure of it."

"Remember, you must not go to the capital from Yizhou Yunsi for the sake of convenience, and make sure that your resume is flawless at the feet of the emperor!"

"You have ten more years than everyone else. If you grasp it, it won't be too late to be admitted to the Jinshi in fifteen years. But you must be absolutely sure, you must succeed in one fell swoop, and you must get a high rank!"

"It will be easy to handle once you pass this level. With your weird science and engineering skills, you can reach my position or even a better position even if you make some political achievements here and there, even if you have higher qualifications!"

"Do you understand? This is why I asked you to perform the crowning ceremony. From today on, keep the world in your heart! You are an adult!"
