"A machine that produces unlimited food?" The craftsman surnamed Zeng was a little confused, and asked with a little hesitation, "You mean the tools for cultivating the land?" Can it increase the yield per acre of field?"

Although the round blade set drill used in digging salt wells is also the main folk product of the Xiajiang Workshop, he never imagined that the two girls who seemed to be from extraordinary backgrounds would actually be associated with those farmers who sowed seeds and planted seedlings, carried water and watered the ground, and faced the loess with their backs to the sky.

No matter what dynasty or era, officials, nobles and cultivators are all high-ranking existences, with an unimaginable distance from ordinary farmers, and many times they only feel that the latter is a green leaf that decorates and sets off their abilities, and never substitutes for their situation.

With the other party's age and cultivation talent, shouldn't they focus on the path of cultivation, want to improve themselves, compete with young talents from various counties and counties, trample their peers under their feet, and become known to the world in one fell swoop?

It's just a matter of studying the alchemy technique a few times, why is it still related to cultivating the land? Looking at the flawless plain white hands, quite a young age, they may not have even seen the real farming completely a few times, and why did they make a big breakthrough in this regard?

"Why do we need farmland to produce food? Haven't you ever seen the means of cooking without making a fire? Still clinging to the old ways of thinking?"

It could be seen that the craftsman surnamed Zeng was suspicious and contemptuous, and sensed his inner thoughts, but Zhao Qing smiled slightly and did not explain his research results on agricultural plants.

She just stretched out her hand upward, and stroked her fingers lightly a few times towards the sky, as if playing in the water by the stream, and inexplicably reminiscent of the harmonious scene of grooming the docile cows and sheep.

In the blink of an eye, the air around him seemed to be summoned by some kind of mystery, and began to swell gently and slowly converge. Suddenly, a gust of wind arose, whistling from all directions, swirling and converging, forming a huge whirlpool in the air.

The moonlight sprinkled down, covering this magical scene with a layer of silvery brilliance. Zhao Qing's palm seemed to have become a link connecting heaven and earth at this time, extending hundreds of millions of slightly glowing crystal lines, spreading to a radius of hundreds of zhang.

These crystal threads shimmered in the night sky, flickering incessantly, as if forming a huge funnel shape, absorbing all the essence of heaven and earth.

As the wind intensified, a hazy mist began to appear across the sky. The mist gradually became thicker, and finally turned into white snow and fell flutteringly. These snowflakes are flying in the air, and they seem to be swirling and dancing with tassels in the sky, which is breathtakingly beautiful.

At the same time, the ground began to change. The flat mud floor, which had been compacted, bulged in a circular shape, turned into a low tank basin with a diameter of several feet.

The surface of this basin is as smooth as a mirror like jade porcelain, and the tassels and snow that are rolled up in the sky and gathered into a large handful of soft lumps are uniformly contained inside, piled up into a small mountain, exuding a faint fragrance.

These things that seem to appear out of thin air and look like snow powder are naturally not really foggy and snowy, but the food that Zhao Qing said, more precisely, the high-purity starch synthesized by her Xuangong magic method using the surrounding water and carbon dioxide as raw materials.

The so-called production of food, in fact, is the photosynthesis and other steps of plants, which completely belong to the category of chemical reactions, and has been studied a lot, simulating the catalytic process with a variety of true qi changes, and then integrating them into one, that is the "water vaporization technique" she created.

In the previous world, in order to ensure that all the people in the world would never suffer from famine, Zhao Qing developed several secret methods for food, such as the "Refining Xia Qi Technique" that allows people to practice photosynthesis, and the "Yin and Yang Yeast Mill" that allows people to break down cellulose into sugar.

Among them, the "Water Vaporization Technique" was too difficult for her to perform easily, but considering that with her cultivation at the time, it took a lot of time to supply a large amount of food, so it was temporarily abandoned.

It wasn't until Zhao Qing saw the possibility of using runes to simulate this complex spell and fully automatic grain production in the rune that it was revealed again here.

"Those who have cultivated to the highest level can skip eating grains, suck wind and drink dew, and completely use the essence of heaven and earth to maintain their needs for survival. Since the essence of heaven and earth

It can provide people with nutrients and energy, so isn't it also a direction to produce food with heaven and earth as cultivation and vitality as fertilizer?"

Pointing to the tens of thousands of catties of starch that had been generated in the jar basin, Zhao Qing said lightly: "In this way, the speed of grain production is thousands of times faster than that of ordinary farming, and with my own strength, I can be worth tens of millions of farmers cultivating at the same time, which is enough to supply nearly one-third of the food consumption of the Great Chu Dynasty."

Hearing this, the craftsman surnamed Zeng couldn't help but widen his eyes, revealing a complex look of disbelief and as if he had seen Xintiandi, and immediately calculated the approximate number according to the grain production rate of the pots and basins on the side, and then was surprised to find that this statement was not exaggerated in the slightest.

If these snow-white powders are really one of the grains, then it is really possible for the other party to be worth the simultaneous labor of tens of millions of farmers, or even a lot more, but if you count the duration and rest and recuperation, there is not much difference.

The number of tens of millions of farmers is the result of excluding the old and young children, and if it is calculated according to the entire peasant class, it will at least double, and the number is even more terrifying.

"The grain is given by the Son of Heaven, and the farmer sow it with great pain, that he may reap the grain in the autumn and satisfy the hunger of all the people...... How can there be such a trick?"

Suspecting that this is an illusion trick, it is likely to be the powder of frozen snow, the craftsman surnamed Zeng leaned over, and was about to reach out to grab a handful of starch and taste it, but suddenly thought that this thing might be poisonous, and quickly stopped at the edge of his mouth.

It was at this time that Zhao Qing took out the folding automatic pot again, and with a slight shake, he absorbed the powder in his hand and mixed it with some water, turned it into starch paste, steamed and cooled it a few times, and made a large pot of cold powder.

Before the craftsman surnamed Zeng found an apprentice to try two bites, when he saw Chu Liuyun outside in the house, he rushed out, and he didn't want to take a big sip in the air, saying that in addition to the taste being too light, it was indeed real food.

With his insight and judgment, he was able to control a large range of Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi so exquisitely, and the other party must have entered the realm of moving mountains in the Seven Realms, and he had his own arrogance in his heart, and there was no need to make any moves against these small characters of his own and make senseless deceptions.

"It's amazing...... This is definitely one of the greatest supernatural powers of all time, and it will surely go down in history, and its influence will not be erased for thousands of years."

Chu Liuyun was lying on the edge of the giant vat, looking at the snow-white powder inside, he couldn't help but be stunned: "Although there are still some difficulties to overcome, if it is really applied to the talisman, it may completely change the future of this world...... The reincarnation of the Youdi and the rebirth of the Witch Ancestor may not be able to catch up."

He couldn't help but think of the powerful cultivators he had seen who used their natal true fire to boil salt and refine brine, although these people were just doing it, but the speed of salt production was also thousands of times faster than that of ordinary people, and now it seemed that it might be possible to improve and develop a special salt-making talisman device?

However, unlike the heaven and earth essence gasification grain, there should be many people who have thought of boiling salt with real fire, and to this day, this method has still not been put into practical application, and there are obviously some difficulties that need to be overcome...... Perhaps, the "Infinite Food Machine" will also face such a problem.

In other words, although the opposite side is a real Seven Realms Grandmaster, and is extremely proficient in spells, he may not have much attainment in rune magic weapons, if he can intercept her ideas and ideas, and snatch them to the holy hands of top workshops such as "Tiangong Pavilion", maybe he will have the opportunity to research the results one step ahead?

Just as Chu Liuyun was thinking a lot of things in his heart, whether to violate morality and compete for fame through the ages, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Zhao Qing and glanced at him lightly, and suddenly all his delusions disappeared, his heart was pure, and he gave birth to infinite admiration like worshipping gods and Buddhas:

"The two of them want to refine the 'Infinite Grain Production Divine Machine' so that all the people of the world can be freed from hard work, which is really a great wish of the most virtuous and virtuous! Although I, Chu, am not talented, I am willing to dedicate one or two to this, and give away all the money and refining materials in the workshop for free!"

"Old Chu, are you crazy?" The craftsman surnamed Zeng tightly grabbed Chu Liuyun's figure that wanted to bow down to Zhao Qing, and lowered his voice: "What nonsense are you talking about? Without these savings to turn around, we will soon not even be able to start working, and we will quickly lose the whole industry!"

"Do you know what fame is greater than wealth? As long as 'none

"The limited production grain god machine" has brought us half of the credit, and people all over the world will remember the name of "Xiajiang Workshop" in the future. When the time comes, you can make a lot of money just by selling those 'paste' souvenirs......" Chu Liuyun explained.

"So sure it can really be developed? It still doesn't feel very reliable. In addition, it is impossible for a single variety of grain to spread to the point of an entire dynasty without the necessary vegetables......

"Do I understand or do you understand? Isn't my brother more knowledgeable than yours? If you have researched this kind of supernatural power, will you not keep a few hands? Do you really think that's all you see? Too naïve! I don't know how to die when I go to war."

"Curses? What about the friendship between brothers and sisters?"

"Friendship is the decision I made by fully trusting my brother."

……

Without continuing to pay attention to the argument between the two craftsmen, Zhao Qing stopped the art of producing grain, his eyes swept over Xia Mi, who was also amazed, and he thought about it in his heart, and deduced the next impact of this move.

In her planning, the rate of the first generation of grain production god machines is naturally impossible to reach a level comparable to that of her full strength, and each one can produce tens of thousands of stones of grain per day, which is quite good, but it is not yet known to what level its cost can be pressed.

In this case, the value of the "food production machine" lies mainly in the role of military strategy, which can significantly reduce the army's demand for logistical food delivery, and greatly increase its mobility and long-distance travel distance.

Food has always been a vital thing for the military and practitioners.

The vast majority of cultivators cannot get rid of the need for food, and the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi they consume in their bodies cannot completely replace all the substances provided in food, especially the operation of the five organs of the human body has become regular since birth, and it cannot be disturbed just like the rules of the movement of the sun, moon and stars.

If the five internal organs are unbalanced and the five qi are out of balance, there will be a big problem with the qi and blood in the practitioner's body.

In a sense, in the process of cultivation, the more vigorous the vitality of the five organs, the higher the demand for food.

Practitioners can go days without eating, but they can often eat the food of several or even dozens of people in a single meal.

Ordinary sergeants, as well as some cultivators who are not highly cultivated, and in a normal army, food and grass are even more basic. If you don't have a full meal, your combat power will be greatly reduced.

Especially in many battles, whether there is enough food has the most impact on morale and morale.

Therefore, the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first.

Although the amount of grain produced by the cultivated fields of the major dynasties is not bad, it is still an extremely huge burden in terms of grain and grass consumption to support the army of millions with tens of millions of peasants and maintain so many high-intensity trained full-time soldiers.

Therefore, every large-scale mobilization war usually has to be stockpiled months or even years in advance, and if it does not last for a few months, it will be difficult to maintain logistics and continue to supply enough food within the enemy's territory.

Like the marching black bee pills used by the You Dynasty to conquer the world in the past, the barley powder carried by the cavalry of the Jin Dynasty, and the shark jelly produced overseas, these are small in size and can provide enough calories and long-term satiety with only a little food, and have always been regarded as the best in military rations.

Since the rise of the Bashan Sword Field, there has been a saying in Chu that "the king of Chu has a thin waist, and the women of Chu are anorexic".

Wang Hao has a thin waist, and the bottom is imitated, and over time, in the entire Dachu, women are thin, and the thin waist is beautiful. The women of Dachu are all dieting, and even the literati and men are aesthetically pleasing, with slenderness as beauty.

Few people know that this is actually a strategy of using the method of "good at the top, and good at the bottom" to "save the rations of the whole dynasty to strengthen the army", while the Chu army selects sergeants, but it is to measure the height and waist circumference, and one inch of strength will increase one cent.

The Great Chu Dynasty's demand for food is actually far greater than ordinary people imagine, or the vision of Emperor Chu and others is quite far-reaching.

In Zhao Qing's opinion, to expand her influence in this world and let the countless craftsmen of the Chu Dynasty become her helpers, it is naturally not just through martial arts

The violent means of force can also make a huge contribution to technology, and truly "convince people with virtue".

Legend has it that Jesus conjured five loaves and two fish for 5,000 people, which has been regarded as one of the miracles and caused a sensation, and with her level, the distribution of millions of stone grains for free is not a big deal.

In addition to quickly becoming a pivotal figure in the Great Chu Dynasty as a "guest qing" and further cooperating with major workshops, she actually has another very important purpose, that is, to consult the Chu Palace's scripture and history library to get more information about this world.

After all, the history of the Chu Dynasty is much longer than that of the Qin Dynasty and most sects, and the countless ancient books collected over the past hundreds of years are of great value.

In the dragon world, you can also try to adopt a similar method, with absolute technological superiority and grand development prospects, to attract the scientists of the Kassel Equipment Department and various research institutes to switch to their side, and at the same time have a lot of elite wisdom, they can also obtain some secret information of the secret party.

The first generation of grain-producing machines was mainly for the military, and the improved version of the second generation belonged to the scope of civilian use, with the goal of surpassing the staple grain output of a dynasty and even all peasants in the whole world.

In this case, because the upper strata occupy an absolute superiority in force, the peasants have no past value of farming, and may liberate the productive forces and gain more freedom, but they may also be completely reduced to slaves who will never come out under the oppression of the rank ~.

From peasants who had a significant influence on the dynasty to inconsequential people who were not as efficient as machines, and were gradually plundered by the gates as slaves and miners, and servants and concubines of the nobles, that was the extremely bad result.

In order to compete for the world with violent soldiers, there may also be a phenomenon of the imperial court encouraging civil fertility and the crazy expansion of the population, which also belongs to the decline in the status of civilians.

These are the risks and hidden dangers that Zhao Qing has taken into account, and they are the direction of development that she must take care of, and various means are needed to balance them and ensure peaceful development with the strongest force - but compared to the benefits that can be brought by the "Grain Production Divine Machine", it can also be regarded as the price that should be paid.

In this process, the "counter~moving" enemies provoked, and the various conspiracies and tricks they set up, naturally belonged to the test of strength.

It just so happened that defeating all kinds of evil masters and verifying the results of her cultivation was one of the things she was looking forward to the most.
