Chapter 401: The Lost Treasure

"Yunhou is too worried, I don't hold a grudge against them, I'm just annoyed, annoyed that I know it, but I don't have the ability to change these things. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

Mo Qian drank a glass of wine, and his eyes gradually became a little angry, "I went to the Ministry of Industry to borrow some drawings before, all of which are the main farming tools of our Daqi, and they said that these are the top in the world, and this can also make Daqi proud." ”

"And what do you think?" Yun Hou's tone was flat, but it had a deep meaning.

"Obsolete products, it's long overdue!" Mo Qian knew Yun Hou's temperament, and he was not the kind of villain who was slandered behind his back, so he spoke happily.

"Ahem......" The sweet and sour chops in Yun Hou's mouth were almost biting their tongues before they finished eating, and Chu Xun and Le Yi next to them were drinking wine, not swallowing, but choking themselves.

"How do you think so? As far as Ben Hou knows, the Ministry of Industry not only includes the world's agricultural tool drawings, but also farming methods to improve and promote, and also rewards the people for innovating agricultural tools, how can it be as unbearable as you say? ”

Mo Qian took out a book from his arms and handed it to Yun Hou, "Yun Hou, please see, this is the agricultural tool atlas of the Ministry of Industry, and there is one thing in it that is very interesting. ”

"Springing the vertebral arch?"

"That's right, also known as the hanging bow, the structure is very simple, a curved slingshot, a grinding disc, a cotton hammer, a yarn strip, all rely on human hands to hit the bowstring with a flower hammer, the cotton is soft, it is the most important tool for us to play cotton, the disadvantage is low efficiency, large labor input, and each person can play eight catties at most per day."

"What's wrong with that?" After all, Yunhou is not a professional farmer, so he doesn't know about this, but Leyi quickly reacted.

"My lord, do you mean that it is now registered with the Ministry of Works, or is it a vertebral arch? But there have already been more advanced floats, right? ”

"Yes, the float has already appeared, when working, the livestock are used to drive the machinery to put the cotton in the box to play, and the beauty can play one hundred and thirty catties a day, which is sixteen times the original, and it is more labor-saving." “

More than one hundred and thirty pounds...... "This time it was not only Lin Guanlan and Chu Xun, but even Yunhou also widened his eyes, "This is really a big deal." ”

This technique is documented in many texts. It's just a pity that our Ministry of Industry has not recorded it at all, and it still uses things from hundreds of years ago, which is really disappointing. Mo Qian continued.

"Bastard, what do these guys from the Ministry of Industry do for food?" Yun Hou took the case and was extremely angry, "Ben Hou wants to go to His Majesty's front to participate in them." ”

"Yunhou, please listen to me first."

Mo Qian took out a piece of paper from the painting and unfolded it, it was similar to a waterwheel, "High drum car, this kind of drum car can be used in the turbulent river, the water is very low and the bank is very high, it is impossible for other cylinder cars to raise the water so high, and it is best to use this kind of cylinder car to be able to deliver water to some people who are far away from the big rivers in the deep mountains."

This kind of thing was already common when I was in Ningyuan, but when I came to the capital, the people in the Ministry of Industry didn't even have a record, let alone promote it to the people? ”

"Ben Hou really didn't know that my Daqi officials were incompetent to this point, and I heard before that they paid their own money to encourage the people to innovate." Yun Hou sighed quietly.

Mo Qian smiled, "What Yun Hou said about encouraging the people to innovate refers to inventing a new thing, and the maximum reward is fifty taels of silver?" If you could invent something new, would you be worried that you wouldn't get fifty taels of silver?

Besides, what common people would bother to bother for the fifty taels of silver, even if there is innovation, it is a big deal to keep it as a family heirloom.

Of course, this is not all the fault of the government, to a large extent, it is related to the self-cherishing of the broom, that is, it is often said that you keep a hand! Which craftsman doesn't have a little bit of his own careful thinking, even if he is a master and apprentice, he is still afraid of starving his master!

Therefore, when teaching, it will not be taught completely, so that one person will leave a little, the more this skill will be lost, and there are many, many things, all of which have disappeared.

But this is not the case with colleges, which can teach students all the knowledge, which is why I am so persistent in running an academy. ”

Chu Xun and Le Yi opened their eyes but couldn't speak, while Yun Hou and Lin Guanlan lowered their heads and looked a little dull, not knowing what they were thinking. "Is there a lot of such things?" After a long time, Yun Hou asked softly.

Mo Qian nodded heavily, "Many, too much, we Daqi don't know how many treasures we have lost in more than a thousand years, only the prosperity of Confucianism but not the strength of Gewu, just like a soul that has lost its flesh and bones is screaming." ”

Yun Hou silently folded the drawing and put it in his arms, as if he was holding some treasure, "Ben Hou has no long things, but the silver taels are sufficient, if you need it......"

"Hey." Mo Qian smiled, "Yunhou, do you think the kid is a person who is short of money?" ”

"If it weren't for you borrowing money to help Miss Fei Yan redeem herself, no." Lin Guanlan said silently.

Mo Qian touched his nose a little embarrassed, speaking of which, in addition to not worrying about food and clothing, he didn't seem to have much to do with being rich, and he was about to be poor enough to rob corrupt officials when he first came to the capital.

Unexpectedly, Yun Hou nodded, "What the virtuous nephew said is not wrong, if he wants money, then there is naturally no shortage, but nothing else, that is, as soon as the formula of the gunpowder is handed over, he can casually exchange it for glory and wealth in other countries." ”

"Then what are you missing, I will find a way to grab it for you!" Lin Guanlan said.

"People, talents, talents who can teach students knowledge, talents who can apply what they have learned." Mo Qian said categorically.

"This is simple, I will write to Your Majesty tomorrow and send the students of the Guozijian to you to use!" Yunhou breathed a sigh of relief, thinking what a big request, the most important thing in this capital is to eat idle food.

"What do I want them to do, do you read it to me every day? Don't say that I don't want these people, even if the doctor from Guozijian comes, I may kick them out. ”

For those corrupt Confucians who are full of moral articles, Mo Qian sneered at them and really started a war, and it was these people who surrendered the fastest.
