Daily Life In Qin Dynasty

The second day.

It was still dark, and before Mo Jun woke up, there were already four beautiful maids outside the room, waiting outside the door early with washbasins, towels and new clothes.

When Mo Jun woke up, he finished washing and dressing under the service of four maids without even moving a finger.

to be honest.

In his last life, which lasted for more than 20 years, Mr. Mo was already accustomed to doing things by himself and having enough food and clothing. For a while, I was really not used to this decadent aristocratic life.

But in order to integrate himself into this world as soon as possible, he had to force himself to accept the reality.

The only thing that Mr. Mo still criticizes is the food from the Warring States Period.

The mainstream utensils used for cooking in the current era are bronze tripods and clay pots. The cooking methods are also very simple, including steaming, boiling and baking.

Some top chefs have mastered some different cooking techniques, but those obviously have nothing to do with ordinary people.

Mr. Mo is now a little nobleman.

Although several servants in the family have mastered some skills in cooking and lighting fires, they are obviously still far from being called master chefs.

"It seems that there is still a long way to go before we can enjoy the extravagant and extravagant life!"

After finishing the monotonous breakfast in a few bites, Mo Jun sighed secretly in his heart.

"I'm going to buy some sheep, pigs, and some chickens, ducks, and geese later to keep in the zoo, and then I'm going to buy a working cow and send it to the farm. I'm going to buy some grain seeds to put at home. I have other uses." Also find someone to make a few iron pots..."

"Yes, I took note of it."

In fact, several of the slaves were a little confused about their new master's instructions. After all, the other things they bought were normal, but the two items "Pig Cub" and "Iron Pot" were really confusing. .

After all, dolphins are pigs. Although there is no such thing as cheap meat at the moment, dolphin pig meat is born with a fishy smell that is difficult to get rid of. It may be valuable to ordinary people who cannot afford meat, but most noble people with some wealth are. Don't eat this stuff.

Then there is the iron pot. As the saying goes, if a man is alive and cannot eat five pots of food, he will be cooked with five pots of pot even if he dies.

The Warring States period inherited many customs from the Spring and Autumn Period, and nobles often took pride in using bronze tripods to cook food. Nowadays, some wealthy people on the market do make iron pots for use. After all, clay pots are fragile.

But true aristocrats generally use bronze vessels to cook food, which is a symbol of nobility.

However, although they were doubtful, these servants would not question Lord Mo's decision. As slaves, the only thing they had to do was to obey their master's instructions and get things done.

After the servant noted it down, he turned around and left.

But at this moment, Mo Jun suddenly remembered something and said: "By the way, starting from today, all the servants in the house will have breakfast every day. All the needs will be drawn directly from this doctor's annual salary. If it’s not enough, use those silk cloths instead.”

The doctor's annual salary was two hundred and fifty kilo of corn. According to the measurement unit of later generations, one kilo of corn weighed about sixty kilograms.

That is to say.

Even Lord Mo, a 'doctor' with a fifth-class title in the Qin Kingdom, had a combined annual salary of fifteen thousand kilograms of corn.

Calculated on average, you can only consume no more than fifty kilograms of corn per day.

Although it seems like a lot, a large part of this corn is used to buy daily necessities, including meat, vegetables, pots and pans, etc.

In this conversion, two hundred and fifty stones of corn is actually not much.

If these annual gifts are only used to provide for ordinary officials and their families, it will naturally be more than enough. But if you add the servants and maids at home, it might be a bit forced.

Therefore, in order to save food, the most common method used by most officials and nobles is to reduce the rations of their slaves.

However, when it came to Mr. Mo, it was completely the opposite.

Mr. Mo considers himself not a purely good person, because it is difficult for good people to survive in this world.

But after all, since you want others to do things for you, no matter how good the conditions are, at least the food should be enough for them!

"I'm a servant at home, thank you master!"

After a brief period of surprise and shock, the slave came to his senses, and then hurriedly knelt down on the ground, crying with gratitude.

Mr. Mo's move is indeed suspected of trying to win people's hearts, but a gentleman does not care about his heart.

······

After simply arranging the chores at home, Mo Jun's life in Xianyang gradually calmed down.

Although Mr. Mo is now the "doctor" of the fifth rank, in a place like Xianyang, especially in the East City and Zhongcheng, if a brick is thrown from the sky, it is estimated that seven nobles with a title will be smashed out of ten people.

Even though things like being promoted to five levels in a row are indeed relatively rare in the Qin State, this cannot hide the fact that Lord Mo is just a "doctor" now.

What's more, the impact of his reward was intentionally reduced by Ying Zheng.

So when Mo Jun came to Xianyang, he didn't attract anyone's attention at all.

This life lasted for three days.

In the past three days, Lord Mo has done two things.

One is to return to his old profession. Compared with the previous penicillin, taking the agricultural path is actually the path Mo Jun originally planned for himself.

But plans can't keep up with changes.

What's more, if you want to change Qin's existing agriculture and animal husbandry, it will not be a temporary success.

Even if Mo Jun now has plug-in assistance and a wealth of knowledge stored in his mind, it will take at least "years" as a unit to achieve anything.

The second is to practice Qigong.

Because he lacks enough "murderous spirit", Mr. Mo is now unable to promote the progress of "Song of No War".

But he still has two martial arts in his hands, "Impermanent Swordsmanship" and "Thousand Miles of Divine Movement" that he has not yet practiced.

"Impermanent Swordsmanship" is divided into three levels, namely:

Shape swordsmanship.

Swordsmanship.

Excalibur.

Form swordsmanship is more important than moves and skills. Every move and style recorded in it is honed through countless killings and is the foundation of the entire swordsmanship.

Shi Swordsmanship can integrate "power" into sword moves, and when combined with "Song of No War", it is enough to exert amazing power. It is also the core of "Impermanent Sword Art".

Divine Sword Technique is the ultimate killing sword. This sword transcends the level of "power" and already involves attacks on the spiritual level.

There is essentially no difference between the three levels of swordsmanship, because the three are complementary to each other.

As long as the sword skills of the previous level reach a certain standard, you can practice the next level. But this does not mean that after practicing Kou Shi swordsmanship, you no longer need to practice Form swordsmanship.

There is no end to the training of martial arts. Only by constantly climbing up can you reach the peak.

The same principle applies to the practice of "Thousand Miles of Divine Movement".

Divine Movement is also a type of Qinggong, but Qinggong generally focuses on agile dodge, agility and lightness.

The Divine Movement technique tends to be bursts of instantaneous speed and direct long-distance attacks.

Relying on the assistance of [Adventurer's Soul] and a large number of [Red Small Crystal Blocks], Mr. Mo has made rapid progress in the practice of these two martial arts.

Until three days later.

The visit of several old friends broke Mo Jun's peaceful life.
