Chapter 360: That's the Grave of the Old Aristocrats, That's the Backbone of the Small Peasant Economy!
Ying Zheng sighed lightly in his heart.
It's not because of you!
But Ying Zheng was reluctant to tell Ying Chengcheng about these things.
In Ying Zheng's view, it only took a few months to create a treasure for Daqin to develop a great cultural fortune, and Ying Cheng must have been very tired and exhausted in the past few months.
Why do you want to tell Ying Cheng Chan about these bad things, weaken the satisfaction in Ying Cheng Chan's heart, and even make Ying Cheng Chan feel guilty?
More importantly, Ying Chengcheng is not good at government affairs and does not know anything about how to balance the forces of the DPRK and China.
What's the use of telling Ying Chengcheng these things?
Let Ying Cheng Toss in front.
In this court, there are widows who clean up the mess for him!
Suppressing the worries in his heart, Ying Zheng said seriously: "Since the king of Chu ascended the throne, the situation in the world is chaotic, and there are many affairs that need to be dealt with. โ
"Now the spring ploughing is close at hand, this is the top priority of my Daqin every year, and my brother must return to the palace as soon as possible to deal with government affairs."
Ying Zheng's voice became a little softer, and he said with a smile: "Brother Nai has really been busy these days. โ
"When this time is over, Brother Nai will accompany you on a safari, okay?"
Ying Zheng used a child-like tone and said something similar to 'next time'.
But Ying Chengcheng didn't buy it at all, but said in a deep voice: "It is precisely because spring ploughing is close at hand that my brother hurriedly called my brother to Chang'an Township." โ
"The craftsmanship that my brother has researched will definitely be able to help Brother Wang and Daqin!"
Ying Zheng smiled and bowed his head: "The Chang'an paper studied by Brother Wang is indeed a lot of brothers. โ
"In previous years, the statistics of spring ploughing from all over Daqin could fill a side hall."
"Now that I have Brother Wang's Chang'an paper, I can't think of a wooden box that can be put away."
"This is all the work of the king's brother!"
Ying Chengcheng shook his head: "The craftsman that my brother said is not hemp paper or forehead, that is, Chang'an paper." โ
When he said this name, Ying Chengcheng couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
But Ying Chengcheng could also see that Ying Zheng was busy, and it was nonsense to continue to argue with Ying Zheng about the name of this hemp paper, so he could only respond first.
Ying Zheng was surprised and asked: "It's not Chang'an paper?!" โ
"In addition to Chang'an paper, Brother Wang also studied other crafts?!"
How long has it been since Ying Chengcheng said that he wanted to study the craftsman!
It's only three or four months!
In Yingzheng's mind, in such a short period of time, he should not even be able to study a decent object.
As a result, Ying Chengcheng not only researched Chang'an paper, which is enough to break the monopoly of knowledge and change the political ecology, but also gained something else.
It's outrageous!
Ying Chengyun nodded: "My brother has already said that Chang'an paper has not yet been studied." โ
"If it weren't for the fact that the water vapor here is too big to cover it up at all, instead of waiting for Brother Wang to ask, if my brother takes the initiative to explain, then my brother will definitely not present Chang'an paper now."
"Brother Wang called Brother Wang to come to Chang'an Township, just to invite Brother Wang to look at another thing."
All the courtiers stopped getting on the bus, and even Yingzheng was not in a hurry to leave.
Co-authoring Chang'an paper is just a coincidental offering?
It so happened that the things offered were so beneficial to the world, so how could it be common for Ying Chengcheng to take the initiative to call Ying Zheng to come to Chang'an Township to check the things!
Ying Zheng asked curiously: "Brother Wang wants to invite a brother to watch, what is it?" โ
Ying Chengcheng pointed out his right hand: "Brother Wang, and all my colleagues, please come here!" โ
Under the leadership of Ying Chengcheng, Ying Zheng and his ministers left the Lichi District and walked to the open space on the side of the workshop group.
Ten ploughing cattle and ten family soldiers have already been waiting here, and when they saw Yingzheng and others, the hexagram husband and other family soldiers all arched their hands and shouted: "Meet the king, meet all the officials!" โ
After Ying Zheng returned the salute, he looked at the object beside the soldiers: "This is what Brother Wang invited Brother Nai to look at today?" โ
Ying Cheng smiled and bowed his head: "Not bad! โ
Looking at the objects on the side of the soldiers, Ying Zheng had only one thought in his heart......
Grotesque!
Looks like a plaything!
Ying Zheng's brain was spinning rapidly, but he couldn't figure out what this object was used for.
Unwilling to have the dilemma of recognizing paper as cloth, Ying Zheng no longer guessed, and simply asked directly: "What is this?" โ
Ying Cheng said with a smile: "Plow! โ
Ying Zheng: ???
Looking at the object that was only half a person tall and the longest wooden beam was not as long as a ploughing ox, three question marks slowly appeared above Ying Zheng's head, and he asked uncertainly: "This is a plow for farming?" โ
Although the widow is the king of Qin, he is distinguished and extraordinary, but the widow is not a faint king!
How can a widow not know the plough that is related to the people's livelihood!
A serious plough is at least several times the size of this thing!
Just this gadget, you say it's a plow?
The cow has to shake his head when he sees it!
Ying Chengcheng nodded solemnly: "Not bad." โ
"This is the plough!"
Hearing Ying Cheng's definitive answer, the corners of the courtiers' mouths twitched slightly.
Chang'anjun, everyone is very busy, can we stop making trouble!
Seeing that the ministers were speechless, Ying Chengcheng smiled and asked, "Don't believe it?" โ
The ministers wanted to nod.
But when he looked at his eyes and squinted slightly, he was scanning the ministers of Yingzheng, and all the courtiers chose to follow their hearts.
Li Si smiled even more: "Chang'anjun made this thing, there must be a reason for Chang'anjun!" โ
God knows how much expression management power Li Si spent to make such a smile!
Ying Chengcheng beckoned to the distance, and Zhang Xun pulled two ploughing oxen over.
On the bodies of the two ploughing oxen, they also carried a long, thick wooden stick, under which a plough was hung.
Seeing this plough, the ministers couldn't help but nod secretly.
That's right!
That's what it's called a plough!
When the plough placed next to the hexagram husband and others is compared with this plough, it is pure child labor who comes out to work before graduating from kindergarten!
Looking at the ploughing ox and plough pulled by Zhang Xun, Ying Zheng explained gently and seriously: "Since hundreds of years ago, iron tools have flourished, and ox ploughing has prevailed. โ
"Nowadays, wherever there is the ability to use oxen to plough, most of the land is carried by two ploughing oxen, and the plough is hung under the bar, just like that."
"One person leads the oxen, one sits on a pole and controls the depth of the ploughshare with his feet, and one follows to sow the seeds."
"Brother Wang, don't underestimate this thing."
"Cultivating and cultivating acres in this way is several times faster than manpower, and it can be ploughed deeper, and the harvest of crops can be counted better!"
"Brother Wang has the intention to improve this thing, and this intention is excellent."
"But it took hundreds of years for the peasants and talents of all walks of life to get this creation, how can it be so easy to improve?"
"If you don't put your mind on Chang'an paper, Chang'an paper is also a thing that benefits the world, and it is worth Brother Wang's effort!"
Ying Zheng's words were euphemistic, but the meaning was very clear.
Every country and school of thought attaches great importance to farming.
Daqin even rewarded the farmers who improved their farming techniques, and was even willing to give them the title of duke!
Millions of people all over the world use or study ploughs.
If there is still room for improvement, then this plough has already been improved, and can it be rotated to win a cockroach that is neither a farmer nor a craftsman?
Ying Chengcheng has never touched the plow a few times!
It is too difficult to improve the plough, and it is not the field that Brother Wang is good at, so Brother Wang should study the Chang'an paper with peace of mind!
Ying Chengcheng said sincerely: "My brother has never underestimated this thing!" โ
"My brother is indeed not as familiar with ploughing as a farmer."
"But my brother also has ingenuity!"
Today's methods of cultivating the land are indeed very crude and rudimentary.
But Ying Chengcheng didn't have any contempt at all.
It is the superficial combination of the iron plough and the ploughing oxen that makes it possible for a single family to cultivate and cultivate the land that once required a lot of manpower.
This not only greatly increased the grain production of various countries, but also dug up the graves of the nobles of the old era!
Heavy wooden poles and huge shelves stand on the backs of the ploughing oxen, supporting the backbone of the small-scale peasant economy!
However, Ying Cheng Chan is not satisfied with this.
The two-oxen-three-man farming method could not support the superstructure of feudal autocracy!
Ying Cheng said in a deep voice: "Brother thinks that the benefit of the plow does not lie in the size of the body, but in the conduction of force. โ
"Now the cultivation needs to be done by two ploughing oxen, is this because the power of one ploughing ox cannot break through the ground?"
"Not really!"
"Two ploughing oxen in parallel just to lift the plough, my brother thought it was a huge waste of animal power and manpower."
"So my brother followed the way of force and made some improvements to the plow."
"Hexagram!"
The hexagram man threw up his hand: "Only! โ
In the midst of shouting, the diviner put the plough on the body of the ploughing ox.
With a slight whip of the whip, the ploughing ox let out a perfunctory moo, and walked forward with four hooves.
"Moo~~~"
Looking at the relaxed appearance of the ploughing cow, you can know that it must not have used all its strength.
But Ying Zheng and the courtiers breathed in unison: "The ground, the plough is open!" โ
In the incomprehensible gaze of the Great Qin monarchs, the plough that was as small as a toy in their eyes was pulled by the ploughing ox, and then it actually left a deep dent in the field!
Ying Zheng's eyes widened unconsciously, and he picked up his shirt with both hands and walked towards the hexagram husband.
Then, start trotting!
Finally, the wild run of the meteor in stride!
Not caring about the dirty, Ying Zheng directly put his right hand into the ploughed fรก, and whispered: "One and a half feet!" โ
"This ploughshare is a foot and a half deep into the ground!"
Han Cang had also followed Ying Zheng to the back of the plow.
The whole person was lying on the ground, Han Cang's cheeks were pressed against the cold soil, his eyes looked at the ploughshare, and he exclaimed: "Your Majesty, this thing can not only penetrate into the soil one and a half feet deep, but also push the ploughed soil to the sides. โ
"That's it, Tsukayama!"
"You don't need the farmer to remove the loose soil, you can throw the seeds into the mound, kick the soil with your feet, and you can cover the soil with seeds!"
Immediately after Han Cang, Li Si, Wang Juan and other ministers also ran behind the plow.
As the three princes and nine kings of Great Qin, they didn't care about face at the moment, one by one they were lying on their stomachs or kneeling, staring at the plough with their eyes, and their exclamations continued one after another:
"This is an abandoned field, and deep ploughing can make the soil so soft?!"
"It's just one cow and one person, how can you complete the thing of two cows and three people!"
"This plough is small, but the plough is not inferior to the current plough! No! It's better than ploughing now! โ
The plough in front of him was completely beyond the imagination of the Great Qin monarchs and ministers.
Why do you get better results with fewer resources?
This doesn't make sense!
The Great Qin monarchs and ministers were shocked by this plough, but the hexagram man couldn't even hold the tip of the plow.
Oh my God!
The king kneels behind me!
The three princes and nine kings of Great Qin knelt behind me in unison!
Today next year will be my death day!
The hexagram man looked at Ying Cheng, and the whole person was about to collapse.
Lord, you only said that you would let the lowly handle this plough and demonstrate it for the king, but you didn't say that the king would kneel down for the lowly!
