Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 108 The Robbed Pang Tong

   Unexpectedly, Fei Qian and Pang Tong explained what political marriage is, and Pang Tong actually laughed at it...

  Pang Tong said that the marriage model of Liu and Cai is the correct marriage model of the gentry in the Han Dynasty. If they are all like Sima Xiangru who cheats people and money, then the gentry don’t want to lose face...

After what Pang Tong said, Fei Qian suddenly remembered that there was such a talent in the ancestors of the Sima family—yes, it is said that the tavern full of petty bourgeoisie opened by Sima Xiangru at that time was only open for business. A few days later, as soon as the money from Zhuo Wenjun's father arrived, he immediately shut down and posted a note saying "interior decoration", as if it had never been opened again...

After being sprayed by Pang Tong, Fei Qian thought it might be reasonable, so he put aside the matter of the Cai family daughter. After all, it seems that this Cai family daughter also has some means. In the later period of history, Liu Biao was quite subdued. appropriate…

  Never mind him, anyway, just don't take this kind of thing on your own head.

Back under the deer mountain, Pang Tong remembered that Fei Qian had promised to make a more delicate weighing instrument, so he chased after Fei Qian's **** and kept reminding him in various ways, so that Fei Qian had no choice but to do it again. I went to the city to find a bronze craftsman, and assembled a simple pallet balance for Pang Tong.

  Fei Qian learned how to behave this time. The things were disassembled and made. The trays, crossbars, brackets, and weights were found by several craftsmen, and finally the parts were taken home for assembly.

  The most important thing to assemble a pallet balance is to find the balance point, but this is not difficult for Feiqian, generally accurate is enough, anyway, it must not be as accurate as later generations.

  Although it is said that Feiqian’s simple balance is only accurate to the smallest measurement unit of 0.5 baht, it has taken a big step forward compared with the weighing instruments currently used in the Han Dynasty.

  Pang Tongxin was very happy to get the tray balance, and he couldn’t put it down. After playing with it for a long time, he held it happily and didn’t know where he went. He probably gave it to some friends to offer treasures.

Fei Qian didn't bother to bother, anyway, the Pang family is Jingxiang's local snake, and Pang Tong is Pang Degong's henchman. It is estimated that no one who is not open-eyed would dare to provoke Pang Tong, so he didn't worry at all, and he was happy and quiet, after all, there was Pang Tong. Degong assigned a lot of homework to do...

  But I never expected it, and after a long time, I saw Pang Tong come back with empty hands, wrinkled face, just like this depressed.

  Fei Qian was holding a scroll of letters and reading it. He glanced at it and felt that something was wrong, so he asked, "What's wrong? Where's the balance I just gave you? Did you accidentally lose it?"

  Pang Tong just shook his head and didn't say anything at first, but was anxious to be questioned by Fei Qian, so he covered his face just now, and said sullenly: "...was robbed..."

  Yo, this is something new, who has the guts to rob Pang’s son, Lord Pang De?

  Fei Qian became even more interested, so he wanted to get to the bottom of it.

  Pang Tong didn’t talk about it at first, but later he was really annoyed by the question, Fang said to Fei Qian: “Okay, I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you… But you must never tell anyone else…”

   Fei Qian naturally nodded, telling Pang Tong to speak quickly.

It turned out that after Pang Tong was cheated by Fei Qian on the problem of a drop of water, he could not calculate with his existing tools, so he thought of the Huang family. Anyway, the Pang family and the Huang family were very familiar with each other, so he found the Huang family and borrowed a set. I just got the new balance made by Fei Qian today. Pang Tong, who was still a teenager, couldn’t wait to take the new balance to Huang’s house. On the one hand, he wanted to return the borrowed tools, and on the other hand, he wanted to show off. Show off, but did not expect...

  Fei Qian listened with interest, and suddenly realized that Pang Tong had stopped talking, so he urged: "Then what happened next?"

"Alas..." Pang Tong sighed, and said hesitantly, "It turns out that Mr. Huang just happened to be away, so... the balance was seen by the girl of the Huang family, and she insisted on borrowing it... Of course I refused. I didn't expect that stinky girl to rely on her strength Older than me... was robbed..."

   "The girl from the Huang family? Could it be Huang Yueying?" Among the famous girls from the Huang family in Jingxiang that Fei Qian could think of was Huang Yueying.

   "Exactly!" Pang Tong was still a little aggrieved when he said it, "A gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands, how can he **** it with his strength..."

Fei Qian snorted, couldn't help it anymore, and laughed unsteadily: "Ah ha ha ha... you were robbed... or a girl... ah ha ha ha... that's not a gentleman, she is a woman, of course you can Hands-on... no, let me laugh for a while..."

Pang Tong's already dark face turned even darker, he jumped on the spot twice, pointed at Fei Qian, "You...you..." Finally, he flicked his sleeves, rushed back to the room, slammed the door shut, and ignored him. Fei Qian, who was leaning on the wall with a smile outside the door...

  **************

  At this time, in the Huangjia Yinyuan, the girl who robbed Pang Tong, that is, Huang Yueying, was studying the spoils.

Huang Yueying had already dismantled Feiqian's balance into pieces and turned them into parts. She took a close look at them one by one, muttering in a low voice and writing on the paper beside her. write something.

The Huang family is good at making tools, and Huang Chengyan is a master of equipment. As Huang Chengyan's daughter, she has been fascinated by it. She has dealt with these things since she was a child, so she is naturally very interested in these related things, so when Pang Tong came here today, he was the first to focus on it. this balance.

  The balance appeared as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period, but it was very rough and crude. It was a wooden stick with a hole in it, and two hooks hung on both sides to measure it.

Although the balance made by Fei Qian is also simpler, it refers to the structure and mode of modern balances after all. Therefore, in the Han Dynasty, when this thing first appeared in the eyes of Huang Yueying, who loves making utensils, don't mention how big it is. Attractiveness, a new way of thinking, a new way of measurement...

Therefore, Huang Yueying originally wanted to ask Pang Tong to borrow it for research and research, but Pang Tong pretended to refuse, so Huang Yueying was furious, and the evil came out of her guts, so she directly robbed it, anyway, Huang Pang The two families are very familiar with each other, and this level of petty fighting between the juniors is nothing at all...

   As for whether Pang Tong’s little heart would be harmed by it, Huang Yueying said that it was not within her scope of consideration, and now she just wanted to thoroughly study this interesting balance...

There was a burst of hearty laughter from outside the house. Huang Chengyan, the head of the Huang family, came back. He obviously learned about his daughter's robbery of Pang Tong. Is it worth fighting for my baby?"

  Huang Yueying snorted, put the balance back together again, put it in front of Huang Chengyan, and said, "Whether it's worth grabbing or not, father, please see for yourself!"

   "Yo!" Huang Chengyan's eyes were attracted immediately, he circled the balance twice, muttering, "Well, it's interesting, it's interesting..."

Balances and scales, one is equal arms, one is unequal arms, one is multiple weights, and the other is single weighing mound, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, these are two completely different modes of thinking... Author Bacteria Qiu Recommendation ticket for collection... Some book friends mentioned the matter of women's boudoir names. I would also like to add here. Before the Southern and Northern Dynasties, women were still respected, and the contempt for women began in the Song Dynasty. This happens to be seen from the female names. From the history books, there are many female names left in the Han Dynasty. There are 24 of them in the Western Han Dynasty, including Lu Zhi. Some women even have not only names but also characters. Lu Zhi has characters. , Zhang Yan has a character, Cao Pi is the second Queen Guo, the character queen, domineering...

The Western Jin Dynasty and the Eastern Jin Dynasty recorded the names of 24 women in just a short period of time. There were more during the Sixteen Kingdoms period, but in the Tang Dynasty, there were only 5 left in the history books...the Northern Song Dynasty in 167 years had none...the Southern Song Dynasty only had two in 149 years , Li Fengniang, Xie Daoqing... For more than 200 years in the Ming Dynasty, there were only 3 Ma Xiuying, Hu Shanxiang, and Guo Ai... So the matter of boudoir names, women's names were only deliberately obscured when ethics prevailed. Before the Tang Dynasty, women were still relatively free... Note that official history...
