The branches are dewed, the weather in the south is full of moisture, and flocks of partridges chirp in the maple forests along the Qinhuai River, and the water waves are agitated, suppressing the voices of passing people. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Fang Tianhua's schedule in Jiangning County was about to end, but when he was about to step on the big ship heading for the Central Plains, he heard a kind of news that shocked him.

"What? You repeat? ”

When he got on the boat, his body paused, and he almost fell backwards, and if it weren't for a few servants supporting him, the consequences would be unimaginable.

What can make this Caoyun envoy so shocked is that Jiangning County, which An'an is divided into six counties in the south of the Yangtze River, has actually gathered 5,000 catties of rice.

Unexpected, absolutely unexpected, this is completely impossible, listening to the entourage, it is something that has not been completed in the past few days.

Almost suddenly, five thousand catties were enough, and the reason was the introduction of a new machine, Sun Qi provided the drawings, Feng Chuan was responsible for promoting, and finally the harvest was completed in a few days.

"Where did those strange manufacturing drawings come from?"

Fang Tianhua's face was solemn, if Sun Qi had collected enough grain, the next step would be to send it to the Central Plains granary.

The clear mist of the Qinhuai River wet Fang Tianhua's face, so that his eyes were confused, and even the future was confused. He really felt a sense of oppression, a sense of oppression that suddenly rose.

I am afraid that I will not be able to keep the title of the first Caoyun in the south of the Yangtze River.

Who is this Sun Qi sacred, he has such a heavenly ability, the scholars of the imperial court, and the members of the Lu Ban Association may not be able to build that kind of harvester.

Fang Tianhua thought secretly in his heart, thanks to not falling out with Sun Qi at the beginning, otherwise he would have offended a super capable character. He was afraid in his heart, staring at the river bank in the distance, but the beautiful scenery was not beautiful, but a little frightening.

"I don't know, in short, this Sun Qi is not only the closed disciple of the appeasement of Lord Lu Ji, but also the person in charge of the Wenzheng Academy, in short, the energy is very large, listen to the investigation of our county's insiders in Jiangning County, Jiangning County in a month, the silver treasury is about five figures.

"Five figures? This is true, you must know that the annual tax revenue of our Wu County is only thousands of taels! ”

The scenery in the distance was even more confused, and his eyes were so dizzy that he almost fainted.

However, what shocked Fang Tianhua the most was that Sun Qi was not only a disciple of the pacification envoy, then that kind of fast-harvesting machine must be the pacification envoy who had inherited from the three famous craftsmen.

Or the leader of the college? This is simply comparable to the county guard of a county, in terms of social fame, Sun Qi is not inferior to the county guard at all, and there is even a tendency to surpass.

"I wonder if he is a talent from my Luban Society?"

Fang Tianhua suddenly asked.

"No, he doesn't have any position!"

That fine work shook his head, which really disappointed Fang Tianhua.

It's not Lu Banhui, and it's so capable, so it's going to be wooed, but it can't be wooed, thinking of this, Fang Tianhua's eyes burst out with a vicious light.

"It's not my Luban meeting, if you can't pull it, there will only be a dead end."

This Sun Qi is obviously more hawkish, since this is the case....

The corners of Fang Tianhua's mouth let out a trace of treachery, his eyes were full of light again, the road in front of him was brighter, the mist dissipated again, and the scenery became beautiful again.

"Let's go, the official still has to arrange some things, so even if Sun Qi collects all the grain and grass, how to transport it to the Central Plains rice warehouse is still a problem, haha, this time maybe it's lucky!"

On the banks of the Qinhuai River, there were a few terrified laughter of birds.

After packing 5,000 catties of grain and grass, the migrant workers transported the bags of rice piled up into a hill to the wharf, because the large transport ship supervised by the land machine was almost completed.

The rice will be sent to the big ships.

"The speed of the division is not bad, the workload of that month, I will press it into ten days, and in another ten days, the body of the ship will be completed, do you want to go and see it?"

Lu Ji put his arm on Sun Qi's shoulder, without the seriousness of his ancestors at all, but this was a hook between colleagues.

Sun Qi followed Lu Ji to the pool in the backyard, only to hear the sound of striking iron, the sound of sawdust falling became louder and louder, and he almost broke through the clouds, and he couldn't even suppress the clouds.

What catches your eye is a modern and charming ironwood behemoth, like a gray island placed in the middle of a pool, and the surrounding scenery is simply paled by this behemoth.

This kind of transport ship, the use of eight sides is exquisite, war can be used to transport soldiers and horses, agriculture can be used for transportation, the structure is strong, not easy to be destroyed by rust, the reason is because Sun Qi specially painted a layer of paint on the bottom of the ship, we all know that the paint is waterproof, this is still the Nippon paint that has never been used in ancient times.

Sun Qi felt it when he got on the boat, although the pool restricted the movement of the ship, but when he went up to the deck, not to mention, there was indeed a condescending pleasure, and there was also an illusion of returning to modern times.

The wind in my ears is blowing my hair, really, I haven't felt this feeling quietly in my previous life, and the pace of social life is rarely so slow.

The sentry tower on the top of the sail can also overlook the Qinhuai River in the distance, sparkling, looking at the past from the position where Sun Qi is, like a flashing little snake.

This ship, in addition to having no missiles, no radar, no mooring system, and other things that should be there, such as the bottom warehouse, lifebuoys, etc., are basically there, and in addition, according to Sun Qi's suggestion, a special place was vacated at the bottom of the ship.

That's right, that place was used to install a steam engine.

"This place, waiting for the steam engine to be installed, then we won't have to use manpower to paddle."

The age of steam, that is an era of anticipation, the drawings of steam locomotives and steamships will be unlocked in the near future.

At present, there are a total of three dragon ships that are about to be completed and delivered to the Cao Yun Division, and Sun Qi calculated a little, which can probably load tens of thousands of catties of rice and hold thousands of liters of water.

The 5,000 catties of rice are not transported to the Central Plains rice warehouse like a child's play, to say that this transport ship with such a large draft is put on the Qinhuai River in the previous life, it is estimated that it has long been stranded, but at this time, the time is different, and the water volume of the Qinhuai River is definitely enough for the huge draft.

As a result, within five days, a transport ship was delivered, and Feng Chuan specially rushed from the office to congratulate Sun Qi, but of course Sun Qi would not take the credit for himself.

"This is all the credit of the master, don't praise Xiaosheng!"

From the backyard pool to the dock on the bank of the Qinhuai River, connected by a waterway several feet wide, the huge transport ship moved to the front of the dock.

Of course, the migrant workers who were carrying the rice bags on the wharf stopped their movements, and this behemoth from the river caught their eye.
