Chapter 51: The Emperor's Grandson
"Your Majesty, the little prince Ying has developed a water-powered spinning wheel, which is far more efficient than manpower!"
Shi Lu looked excited.
The Great Qin Empire has two major foundations, one is military merit, and the other is the cultivation and weaving system. The former maintained the strong combat effectiveness of the Qin Dynasty, and the latter was the guarantee that the Qin Dynasty army could maintain strong combat power!
The emergence of the water-powered spinning wheel has increased the spinning efficiency by more than 100 times, which is equivalent to a shot in the arm for today's Daqin.
Hydro spinning wheel?
Far better than manpower?
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, and refocused their eyes on Zhong Zhao Ying in disbelief. Although the First Emperor's face forcibly maintained his composure, his clenched fists still betrayed his mood at this time.
Zhao Ying didn't care about the reactions of the others, and walked quickly to Shi Lu.
"Shi Shaofu, is it really done?"
"It's done!"
Shi Lu nodded heavily.
"Xia Guan personally inspected, in less than a quarter of an hour, a full fifty-six spindles can be spun, even so, it is still because the craftsman is not skilled, preliminary estimates, after proficiency, the time of fifty-six spindles can be compressed to half an hour!"
Hiss β
Everyone couldn't help but gasp.
β¦β¦
Two quarters of an hour later.
The First Emperor took a group of ministers, looked at the water-powered spinning wheel built on the bank of the water in amazement, and watched in amazement as the water wheel in the water was under the impact of the river, methodically with several small water wheels to rotate rapidly, and the dense yarn spindles, driven by the water wheels, quickly drove the yarn spindles to rotate.
The spindle is rapidly raised at a speed visible to the naked eye and becomes a standard spindle.
It took less than a quarter of an hour, as Shi Lu said.
It's a miracle!
This brave and amazingly powerful young man still has talent in this area!
β¦β¦
Looking at the water-powered spinning wheel in front of him, the First Emperor suddenly felt a move in his heart.
"What you told me a few days ago is that it can solve the problem of stone grinding and labor, isn't it similar to this?"
"Father is wise!"
Zhao Ying smiled and gave the First Emperor a sycophant who didn't want money.
"I was about to tell the eldest father that the hydraulic power was even milled, and the grange not far away, did the eldest father want to go over and have a look?"
If I don't ask about my feelings, you kid is still holding back and won't tell me yes, right?
"Stinky boy, why don't you hurry up and lead the way-"
The First Emperor kicked him angrily.
Zhao Ying stumbled a few steps exaggeratedly, then limped, pretending to come up again and grabbed the arm of the First Emperor, and the corner of the First Emperor's mouth couldn't help but show a smile.
Follow Zhao Ying and walk forward unhurriedly.
It's like a pair of ordinary grandchildren walking leisurely in the fields.
Looking at the scene in front of them, everyone's eyes couldn't help but flash, and they followed very tacitly. The power of heaven is unpredictable, and no one dares to speculate on the mind of the First Emperor.
Zhao Gao and Li Si subconsciously glanced back at Hu Hai, who was pretending to be calm, and quietly withdrew their gaze.
It's not Xianyang Palace, it's not Zhangtai Palace, or Ganquan Palace, this is in full view, the first emperor unabashedly shows his love for the little prince Ying, who dares to say that it is an unintentional move?
Everyone couldn't help but happily re-examine their performance during this period of time, especially the swing between the eldest son Fusu and the eighteenth son Hu Hai, and even those who had already taken a foot towards Hu Hai, many people secretly took their feet back.
For these, the First Emperor seemed to be unknown, and Zhao Ying didn't think much about it.
Rub - cough cough, when you are a grandson, what happened to honor your father?
Unalterable principle!
With the foreshadowing of the water-powered spinning wheel, and then looking at the water-powered continuous grinding, a group of people became much calmer. While curiously observing the stone mill, he carefully inquired about some details of the stone mill.
"Little boy, I really don't know where you got such ingenuity, it's amazing-"
Feng Qujian sighed in admiration while touching the stone mill.
Zhao Ying smiled and waved his hand.
"What's not amazing about this, you see it's very simple, in fact, there are no major changes, I just added a water wheel on the basis of the original stone mill - mainly a reminder from the eldest father......"
When the First Emperor heard this, he couldn't help but be happy, and scolded with a smile.
"Stinky boy, do I still need your little credit?"
Zhao Yingle said hehehe.
"The eldest father has the credit of the three emperors, the five emperors of Degao, naturally I don't need this little credit, but this credit is originally yours, if you don't dislike the ordinary stone grinding time-consuming and laborious, I won't think about these lazy methods, we are the ancestors and grandchildren ...... together."
The First Emperor smiled and waved his hand.
"My rewards and punishments are clear, it should be yours, it is yours, this time I have made a great contribution, I will naturally be rewarded!"
Speaking of this, the First Emperor looked at the water wheel that was spinning and suddenly thought thoughtfully.
"You call this thing a hydraulic continuous mill, and that one just now called a hydraulic spinning wheel?"
Zhao Ying didn't know what the First Emperor meant, and nodded a little puzzled.
The First Emperor waved his hand, authentically.
"The names are too ordinary, according to me, this stone mill is called Huangsun Mill, and the spinning wheel in front of it is called Huangsun Carββ"
Zhao Ying: ......
Father, I can't hide it, the level of your name is also sparse.
"Your Majesty is wise, good name! The little boy worked hard for the people of the world, and worked hard to study the great spinning wheel of the emperor and grandson for the benefit of all the people. β
Without waiting for Zhao Ying to complain, the old general next to him, Meng Wu, couldn't help but light up his eyes, and stepped forward and echoed loudly.
Zhao Ying: ......
Ah, this-
General, we must have a drink when we have time!
All:......
Everyone is a clear-eyed person, who doesn't understand that Mengwu, an old thing, is taking the opportunity to gain prestige for the emperor's eldest grandson and eldest son, but what else can he do?
can only echo one after another.
"Your Majesty, good name!"
The First Emperor nodded lightly and raised his hand to summon Shaofu Shi Lu.
"Immediately ordered all counties in the world to vigorously promote these two tools wherever there is water, so that the people of the world can enjoy the benefits of these two tools......"
"The craftsmen who participated in this tool transformation will be promoted to two levels, and the reward will be 10,000-"
β¦β¦
Shi Lu left in a hurry.
With this chariot, he is now confident that he will be able to raise enough cloth to make winter winter clothes before the New Year. The emperor's eldest grandson Ying, really solved his urgent need.
The hunt was over, and the First Emperor waved his hand to disperse the civil and military ministers who were accompanying him.
Only the old generals Wang Jian and Meng Wu, who are no longer in the court, and Zhao Gao, the commander of the CRRC Prefecture, were left.
Zhao Ying supported the first emperor and walked slowly in the grange, the old generals Wang Jian and Meng Wu accompanied each other left and right, and Zhao Gao followed step by step.
The eyelids are drooping and the gaze is deep.
