The next day, next to Kunming Pond in Shanglin Garden.

Dozens of ox carts, pulling hundreds of stone heads, squatting and unloading them on the shore of the lake.

Hundreds of officials from the Shaofu Qing Career Office, Sikong Office, the Crown Office, the East and West Weaving Orders, and Dongyuan, squatted on the shore of the lake to clean the tubers that had just arrived here.

For them, this matter is very simple, just wash the tubers.

On the shore of the lake, several large cauldrons were raised as Zhang Yue's instructions, and the firewood burned, boiling the water in the large cauldrons to a boil.

To be honest, these cauldrons are extremely efficient in cooking food.

But now, there is no iron pot yet.

Or it can be said that the world is not as luxurious as to be able to use an iron pot!

Ironware is prone to rust. For the people, if they buy an iron pot at home, it is equivalent to losing money every day.

The tripods are different, these bronzes will not rust.

And it's very high-end.

Didn’t I see that Master Yan said, “A real man should eat five cauldrons in his life, and he should also cook five cauldrons in his life”?

but……

Zhang Yue was a little excited when he saw this situation.

Because he found an idea iron pot that can quickly increase the scale of the Han Dynasty's industrial scale!

If we can cast a pig iron pot that is equivalent to the technical level of the Ming and Qing Dynasties today, then...

How big will this market size be?

I'm afraid it will be bigger than imagined!

Whether it is China or the Four Barbarians, who doesn’t need a pot?

This kind of product is a necessity, just like tea and salt.

In other words, as long as the Han Dynasty can lit the technology tree for making iron pots, it can dump iron pots into the world in large quantities.

This in turn can prompt Shaofu to expand the scale of iron smelting and cast iron.

However, we need to think of a way to solve the problem that pig iron pots are prone to rust.

Don't think about stainless steel.

But how did the iron pot after Song Dynasty prevent rust?

Zhang Yue scratched his head and found that this technique seemed impossible to be obtained through backtracking.

because……

Not to mention the new century, even in the 1980s, pig iron pots have begun to withdraw from the market.

Zhang Yue saw it when he was a child, but he didn't know how it was made.

"It seems that we have to pass the experiment..." Zhang Yue thought to himself: "Maybe, this is also an opportunity to build a professional laboratory in Xinfeng..."

Thinking of these things in my mind, my eyes were aiming around Kunming Lake.

The preparation technology of taro vermicelli and konjac flour is not too difficult.

He also wrote all the basic steps on the silk book and handed them over to the people below.

If he hadn't thought about coming to Kunming Lake to take a look, he would probably have been too lazy to come.

Of course, there is another reason...

Zhang Yue extended his sight from the rippling Kunming Pond to the distance.

On the other side of Kunming Lake is the most famous tiger circle in the Han Dynasty.

There are national first-class protected animals such as South China tigers and South China leopards that have become extinct in the wild in later generations.

For the Han nobles, the tiger circle is simply the best entertainment venue in Guanzhong.

There is nothing more to compare. While drinking wine, watching the tigers and leopards fighting in the Colosseum, or even humans and beasts fighting, can relieve nerves and relieve stress.

Even emperors of all dynasties liked to watch this kind of sports.

Therefore, in the history of the Han Dynasty, many stories and allusions happened in the tiger circle.

For example, the confrontation between Emperor Taizong and Zhang Shizhi happened there.

During the reign of the late emperor, Yuan Gusheng was thrown into the beast circle by Empress Dowager Dou to fight with the wild boar, which also happened there.

In later generations, the tiger circle almost took the life of a Han emperor, Emperor Cheng almost died under the claws of a wild bear. If the Concubine Jie, who was with him at that time, stood up and stood in front of Emperor Cheng.

As far as Zhang Yue knows, at this time, King Liu Xu of Guangling was taking his ministers, nobles and some Confucian scholars to play the game of tearing tigers and leopards there.

Among them, there is Li Yu, who is the representative of the prince's position.

Since receiving Han Shuang’s reminder yesterday, Zhang Yue has been thinking about it and finding an opportunity to test Li Yu.

And now this opportunity is good!

but……

"Why haven't Li Yu come yet?" Zhang Yue held his chin and fell into deep thought.

He thought from the perspective of others that if he was Li Yu, he wanted to deal with someone.

Then you will definitely find opportunities to contact and try.

"Does Li Yu not interested in me?" Zhang Yue was puzzled: "Or he was so arrogant that he didn't take me seriously?"

……………………

Of course, Li Yu dared not not take Zhang Yue seriously.

At this moment, he sat upright in a corner of the tiger circle, watching the battle in the field, a warrior with only one wooden shield and a short sword, confronting a hungry tiger that looked extremely fierce.

Not far away from him, King Liu Xu of Guangling held a sword and shouted: "Good! Zong Xiong! I give you 800 stones a year, so I am not asking you to be a coward!"

"A real man should not be afraid of tigers and leopards. A real hero will hold a tiger and kill a bear!"

This king has been like this since he was sixteen years old.

He was born with divine power, and could even give birth to a tiger and leopard, and kill a big bear weighing thousands of pounds with his fists.

It can be said to be the most brave among all the scholars today!

He himself compared himself to Xiang Yu, thinking that except for him, the rest of the world were all trash.

only……

"It's just a brave man..." Li Yu sneered in his heart and looked at Liu Xu's figure: "It's just right for me..."

Even in Li Yu's design, the best way is to let this king take the initiative to cause trouble for Zhang Zizhong and repeat the story of King Li of Huainan killing Piyang Hou.

But, it's not easy to operate.

After all, Liu Xu is a little stupid.

But there are still smart people among his Grand Tutor and ministers.

At this time, the warrior off the field had already stepped forward with a knife and carefully approached the tiger that was roaring with his head down.

Liu Xu was so excited that he danced with all his hands and feet. He raised the wine bottle and poured it into his mouth.

The ministers around Liu Xu clapped and began to cheer.

Li Yu quietly picked up the wine bottle and walked behind Liu Xu.

In the field, people and tigers began to fight together.

That warrior looked like a long-trained warrior who was skilled in fighting tigers.

But unfortunately, his opponent was an adult male tiger, more than 1 meter long, weighing at least 500 kilograms (about 130 kilograms), with thick and short limbs and strong, and he was a natural hunter and the top of the food chain.

Just a staggered warrior made a fatal mistake. He might have been disturbed by Liu Xu and wanted to kill him with one blow and win the reward.

As a result, his attack failed.

This made him expose his back to the tiger's attack range.

Then……

Making mistakes in front of a hungry tiger is no different from death.

Everything came to an abrupt end.

The warrior was pounced under the tiger, and blood immediately gushed all over the ground.

"Bad!" Liu Xu saw it and cursed viciously: "Bad!"

He said that he was about to take off his crown and planned to go on stage by himself to demonstrate to others what the 'real warrior' is.

"You must not!" The two ministers beside him immediately stopped him: "How can the son of the king's daughter take risks?"

At the same time, the soldiers on both sides of the tiger circle also began to move forward with shields and halberds, drive away the tiger and clean up the mess.

They are very skilled in doing this.

If a person wins, he is naturally a hero.

If the beast wins, it will be driven away immediately. Of course, as the winner, you will be rewarded with a boar or an elk.

But Liu Xu couldn't hold back when he looked at the scene. He threw down the crown hard and said, "Do you think I can't beat that tiger?"

He raised his head and looked around with contempt.

Since adulthood, countless beasts have died under his fists or swords.

He even set a record of breaking a tiger's sky spirit cap with one punch.

In his opinion, unless Xiang Yu is resurrected, who will compete with the world?

As soon as he said this, the ministers on both sides were embarrassed.

If it were in Guangling Kingdom, no one could stop this extremely competitive king.

However, this is Chang'an.

Once the emperor knew that King Guangling would go down to the tiger circle and fight the tiger again.

When Long Yan was furious, they would at least lose their official position. If they were serious, they might be executed directly.

"King..." A minister quickly grabbed Liu Xu's trouser legs and begged: "The king is Shanglinyuan here, if the emperor knows..."

When Liu Xu heard this, his face finally calmed down.

Thinking of his father, he was also a little afraid.

Five years ago, when he returned to Beijing, he did not restrain himself, and went down the tiger circle to fight with the bear, and suffered a little injury.

Then his father called him to scold him and locked him in the violence room, making him think about his mistakes.

even……

If it weren't for the fact that the prince had been begging at that time, and the King of Yan had also taken out Li Ji to plead with him, maybe he, King Guangling, would have to be covered with a bed to become the King of Jiaozhi.

But……

The irritability factor in his nature was about to move. He stared at the hungry tiger who was being driven away by the soldiers and was about to leave. He felt like he was about to burn.

A tiger, in front of him, can the person who killed him still leave?

He can't stand this!

He asked, "Who can take the life of that beast for me?"

No one on the left spoke.

The power of the tiger is obvious to everyone.

Zong Xiong was already a good player among everyone, but he had already died and ended up in a bloody and bloody ending.

No one can guarantee that he will end like that.

When Liu Xu saw this, he was furious and roared, "What's the use of raising you and others?"

He kicked the warriors in front of him hard, but he didn't dare to exert too much force. If someone died, the censor would find out that he would probably lose his skin and might even be fined several counties.

"King..." At this moment, Li Yu smiled and went up to worship, "I know there is a man who is the bravest of Guanzhong and the number one warrior in Chang'an, and may be able to cheer up the king..."

When Liu Xu heard the four words "First Warrior", he immediately jumped up: "Who?"

In his perception, everyone who dares to compete with him for the title of No. 1 Warrior will die!
Chapter completed!
