"We have developed a prototype of this seeding device, but the operation speed of this seeding device is not fast, compared with manpower, although it is twice as fast as manpower, but it does not meet our expectations."

"I believe that Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince will most likely be dissatisfied after seeing the efficiency of this equipment, and we still plan to continue to study it for a while."

"Now that the farming and sowing season has passed, this sowing equipment is not in a hurry to be promoted."

"By the way, His Royal Highness the Prince, the textile equipment has been promoted, and the people praise the textile equipment, do you know?"

Chen Mu's attention was still on the drawing in front of him, and when he suddenly heard this sentence, he was stunned, and then came back to his senses.

He smiled and nodded, and said yes.

After the textile equipment was promoted, the price of cloth in the city dropped a lot, and those people also had surplus silver to buy more cloth and make clothes for themselves.

Most of the people in the capital are well-off, and many people feel that if this textile equipment is extended to other counties, most of those poor people will have the opportunity to buy more cloth to make clothes.

"After determining the production efficiency of this textile equipment, we can promote this equipment to the northern states and counties, where the people need more cloth to make thick clothes and talk about winter."

Li Mao sighed, said this, Chen Mu also nodded in response, and discussed the matter of farming equipment with Li Mao and the others.

Chen Mu saw that it was not early, so he prepared to leave.

After saying goodbye to Li Mao and the others, Chen Mu was about to step out of the door of the research mansion, when he suddenly smelled a scorching smell coming from the air.

Chen Mu was stunned, turned his head and glanced at the backyard of the research mansion, now the sky was completely dark, the last rays of sunset afterglow were drowned out by the horizon, and there were only a few lights around.

Chen Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, looked carefully for a moment, and saw that there seemed to be billowing smoke coming out of the direction of the backyard.

Because the sky had completely darkened, the smoke was hidden by the shadows of the trees and the night, and it was not noticed at the first time!

And because there was only smoke coming out, but no fire was emitting, although the adults in the research office also smelled a scorching smell, they didn't realize that it was a fire in the backyard.

Chen Mu's pupils shrank suddenly, he raised his hand and pointed to the backyard of the research mansion, and then shouted at the guards standing beside him.

Seeing this, many guards also changed their complexions, jumped forward, and ran in the direction of the backyard.

At the same time, the adults in the backyard seemed to sense that something was wrong, and a burst of shouts erupted.

"It's on fire! Why did it suddenly catch fire? Come on! Come and help put out the fire! ”

As soon as this voice sounded, the adults who were talking to Chen Mu in the front yard immediately rushed towards the direction of the back yard.

Chen Mu remembered that these people were all scholars, and they were not as neat as his subordinates, so he asked people to stop them.

These people are very ingenious, and they are rare talents, and if these people are injured by the fire, it will not be worth the loss!

Chen Mu immediately sent someone to evacuate the adults who were staying in the backyard, he walked quickly in the direction of the backyard, and when he reached the front of the fire, Chen Mu heard an adult shouting in a panic.

"Oh no, our drawings are in that attic, and now that this fire has suddenly ignited, I'm afraid our drawings will be destroyed."

"That's all our hard work, what should we do next?"

The adult's voice burst into tears, Chen Mu turned his head and glanced in the direction of the adult, frowning.

"This attic is a three-story attic, and the fire started on the first and second floors, where are your drawings placed?"

Suddenly hearing this voice behind him, the adult was stunned, turned his head and glanced in the direction behind him, the fire flickered, and life was noisy.

The adult didn't recognize Chen Mu's identity at the first time, he only spoke.

"On the top floor, right on the top floor! But as you said, there is a fire on this and the second floor, and we can't go into this fire to take out the drawings, what can we do? ”

"I still have a lot of ideas for that drawing written on paper, and it's housed in that three-story attic!"

"Don't panic."

Chen Mu waved his hand when he heard the adult say this, and he turned his head to glance at the guards standing behind him.

Those guards were all royal guards, and they were very skilled and skillful.

After receiving Chen Mu's signal, they immediately rushed towards the direction of the fire, their figures flashed rapidly, but with a light tiptoe, their figures swept into the three-story attic like flying swallows.

When the adults who were standing in front of the fire at a loss saw the skills of those guards, they immediately applauded one after another, and a little hope appeared in everyone's eyes.

A moment later, the guards rushed out of the attic with drawings and books.

They landed neatly beside Chen Mu and handed the drawings and books to the adults gathered in front of the fire.

The adults took the drawings and nodded their heads repeatedly.

OK!

Fortunately, the drawings were not destroyed!

After making sure to take out all the drawings and books in the attic, Chen Mu retracted his thoughts and looked in the direction of the attic where the fire was burning.

It is really strange that the other houses around this attic did not catch fire, only the attic with the drawings where it was placed caught fire, which makes people have to think about it.

"Is there a bamboo lamp in this attic, or something else that can easily catch fire?"

Hearing Chen Mu's question, several adults who had recognized Chen Mu's identity and studied the government shook their heads silently, they knelt down in a hurry and thanked Chen Mu, and Chen Mu waved his hand indifferently.

He turned his head and glanced at Li Mao again, Li Mao walked to Chen Mu's side, glanced in the direction of the attic, and then spoke.

"This attic is made of wood, and the books and important drawings that we use to build plans and drawings on a daily basis are housed in this attic, and several adults are very careful."

"On weekdays, we will also find someone to clean up this attic, and it is impossible for the attic to catch fire at all, there is not even a single spark in this attic, and there are no lamps in several houses around this attic."

Hearing Li Mao say this, Chen Mu nodded thoughtfully and agreed.

If this is the case, it means that the attic fire is most likely man-made.

Chen Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, and first waved his hand at the guards behind him, asking people to search around the research mansion as soon as possible to see if they could find anyone with suspicious behaviors.

Then he glanced at the adults kneeling in front of him.

"Who left this attic last, I suspect that this attic suddenly burned down, and someone maliciously set it on fire."

Several adults looked at each other in surprise when they heard Chen Mu say this, and one of them pondered for a moment and said.

"If I'm not mistaken, it's Lord Sun and Lord Xu......"

Lord Sun is Sun Jiu.
