Scholars unparalleled

The people are already in an uproar at this moment.

This thing was too shocking for them? Didn't see any movement from the other party? The rice started to be beaten.

This is equivalent to a fairy method!

The point is that this thing was actually researched by the research institute set up by the Holy One, which made the common people respect the Holy One a lot.

The Holy One really deserves to be the Son of Heaven, otherwise, how could such a thing be built?

Especially this thing, it's so miraculous!

"Long live the Holy Spirit! Long live Xing Han!"

The people shouted again and again, this thing really cheered the people up.

This made them feel that the Xinghan Empire is still making rapid progress, and it made them particularly proud.

Since the founding of the Xinghan Empire to the present, everything is still changing, and it has not stopped until now.

At this moment, Lu Chensheng is still in the palace.

The guard quickly came to report, "My lord, the rice threshing machine has received a good response from the people. The common people have a high degree of acceptance of this thing, and they are not treated as a monster by this thing."

Recommended, the app I am using recently, the Mimi Reading APP supports both Android and Apple phones!

Lu Chensheng nodded upon hearing this.

One of the reasons for letting the officials to experiment with the people is that they are worried that the people will think wrongly.

After all, most of the common people have not learned any knowledge, and it is inevitable that they may think badly about this kind of thing.

At this time, using this thing to beat rice will naturally make the common people feel more at ease and kind.

Also, I really like this steam engine.

"Let the people below start building these things quickly. The aristocratic families from all over the world like this thing very much, and they all come to me to ask for these things."

Lu Chensheng rubbed his forehead and said something.

Lu Chensheng didn't want to keep these secrets, and the aristocratic family knew about them very quickly.

After knowing the magical effect of this thing, it can greatly increase your own income. Who doesn't like this thing?

In particular, many families know how to make this cement. With this thing, the output of cement will increase a lot.

In this way, this cement is enough for them to squander. Isn't the money flowing in?

They are not worried at all that the market will be saturated. There are too many places in the Xinghan Empire that need cement, and there is also the Beifan Kingdom.

No, it can't be called Beifan Kingdom anymore, it should be called Xinghan Empire, which has been completely annexed by Xinghan Empire.

Now the imperial court is thinking about building a road to this place, so that it can be more convenient to control.

In this way, don't we need cement again?

In addition, the Beifan Kingdom was basically burned down. If it is to be rebuilt, it is naturally better to use cement.

Even if the demand in these places is full, isn't there still overseas barbarians?

Those barbarians are very jealous of these cements, but now the Xinghan Empire is in short supply, so naturally there is not much to sell to them.

But when the output increases, it will naturally be sold to them.

Because of the demand and the fact that their own output is not up to standard, the aristocratic families are naturally in a hurry.

7 ninety chapters annual output

The weather gradually began to cool down again, and the autumn harvest began in various parts of Xinghan.

A lot has happened in the Xinghan Empire this year.

First, the Beifan Kingdom invaded, and the country was directly wiped out soon after.

This matter is quite big, and several countries around Xinghan are trembling, fearing that it will be his turn when the time comes.

After all, before the Beifan Kingdom was destroyed, the tribes of Zanda were already at the forefront, and now another Beifan Kingdom came.

These two countries have been destroyed one after another, and it has been less than half a year, right?

Anyone can see that the Xinghan Empire is quite irritable now, and if you look at me, I will send troops to destroy the country.

Among them, all the countries in the Western Regions breathed a sigh of relief.

Since they began to surrender, they agreed to the conditions of the Xinghan Empire. Now most of them have moved and branched into various cities that the Xinghan Empire placed for them.

In this way, they were separated, but not too far apart.

In normal times, there is no difference from the Han people here.

But their clothes, language, etc. have all begun to develop in the direction of the Han people.

In the end, though, there's nothing wrong with that.

At least it is much better than the Beifan Kingdom. Look at the Beifan Kingdom today. After hearing the news later, after the Han army entered, the Beifan Kingdom has basically been wiped out.

Although there are reasons for Beifan Kingdom's massacre of Han people in it, the revenge after this still makes their hearts chill.

Except for these small countries that are afraid of the Xinghan Empire, the Grand Duchy of Kiev is extremely indifferent.

The two countries are neighboring countries, but there has been no communication. Although there were some frictions before, they did not turn into a big war.

He has never paid much attention to this Xinghan Empire.

Their Grand Duchy of Kiev is so powerful, how could they be afraid of this newly rising Han dynasty?

In addition to these things, there is also the fact that foreign countries from overseas came to the court, and they heard that they paid millions of silver for the offering. This made many scholars feel very proud after hearing about this.

Foreign countries from overseas have all come to pay tribute. Doesn't this show the strength of their empire?

There is another big event, that is, before the autumn harvest this year, the imperial court came up with a new thing.

This thing can quickly lay rice and turn it into rice.

With this thing, the common people will be able to relax a lot without having to pound rice so hard.

There are not many such machines now, but by next year, I believe that every city will have at least ten of them.

And the people in the village can also chip in to buy one.

It is not a bad thing for the village to have one.

After all, there are so many fields planted in the village, and it takes more than a month to pound rice. If there is more food, it may not be enough for a month.

Moreover, according to the price given by the court, this machine is not too expensive.

For this machine, it has also spread to all parts of Xinghan.

Many people have heard of such a machine but have never seen it in detail.

However, this miraculous machine has been spread all over the world, making the people reverence in their hearts, and they have more and more trust in this imperial court.

Since the establishment of the Xinghan Empire, it has been doing many practical things for the people.

In the eyes of the people, this is true and very good.

Now their lives are gradually improving.

This year, the number of married daughters also began to climb.

When the empire was just established, the imperial court ordered that women under twenty should not be allowed to marry.

After being stuck for so many years, the number of marriages this year has been rising steadily. In a city, you can see more than ten marriages on an auspicious day.

And just like the decree issued by the imperial court, most of the women who married after [-] did not encounter any danger when they gave birth.

This made the common people trust the imperial court more and more.

In Xinghan City, after the rice threshing machine came out, three places were set up in the city to put the rice threshing machine.

Rice can be milled in these three places, and the common people come here with rice, and two hundred catties of rice can be milled for only one copper coin.

This can be said to be a very cost-effective discount.

It would take at least a few days to beat the two hundred catties of rice by myself.

And in the past few days, they found something to do by themselves, and it cost more than one copper coin.

There is a lot of work nowadays, digging canals is done every day, and there are several copper coins in a day.

These three rice milling places are full of visitors, and the machines have been roaring without stopping.

And some careful people did some calculations, and found that the machine was always on, and besides the coal for burning, the coal needed basically only cost three copper coins.

And this machine can earn more than 20 copper coins in one day!

If you do the math, you can earn more than 100 copper coins in a month!

Some merchants directly discovered the benefits of this, but it is a pity that there are not many of this machine at present, and most of them are reserved by some aristocratic families.

These merchants, if they have no connections, they can only wait.

At that time, if you buy a few units and put them in some places, you can make a lot of money.

Some of them operate rice shops, and it is very cost-effective to get such a machine.

In the palace, Lu Chensheng looked at the memorial, while the ministers were helping with government affairs.

Except for some important matters, which required Lu Chensheng to look over, many other matters were left to the ministers to solve by themselves.

"Has the grain harvest this year still not improved?"

Lu Chensheng asked.

It's the autumn harvest now. Although it's too early to inquire at this moment, it is actually possible to calculate this year's autumn harvest based on some circumstances.

For example, some droughts and the calculation of the empty grain situation.

"This year's grain output may not increase much, and may even decrease a lot."

Hubu Shangshu heard the words and quickly got up to respond.

"According to the reports submitted by various places, Yunmeng City should have the largest grain output. This year, Liu Xiangnan, the prefect there, submitted a report saying that a lot of rice was damaged by freezing.

There is also Yunyun City, there was a flood this year, and a lot of crops were flooded, and the four cities outside the Great Wall, Jiyun City, this year's food production is not very good..."

There were originally three cities outside the Great Wall, but now including Xinghan City, there are four cities. After solving the Zanda clan, the reclaimed fields have expanded a lot.

Chapter 791 Competition

"Beyond the Great Wall, I remember that the water power is not very good? It won't be the drought that caused the crop failure, right?"

Lu Chensheng waved his hand to stop, with a bit of confusion on his face.

In terms of water power, the cities around Xinghan are the best.

It has been done a long time ago, and now, countless vegetation has been planted on the supposedly desolate fields. Because of the existence of the canal, the vegetation grows extremely dense.

"It's because the winter outside the Great Wall is too cold, and the time is relatively long. This year's spring plowing has actually missed the timing of spring plowing, resulting in a short harvest of grain this year."

Li Daifu replied immediately.

It was already cold outside the Great Wall, and with the current weather, the two great rivers of the Xinghan Empire were frozen over.

The canal outside Xinghan City also froze along with it. At the beginning of the year, the ships could not move, and the goods were pulled by horse-drawn carts during that period.

The merchants complained endlessly, and only after they had a ship to pull goods did they know how useful the ship was.

During the period when there were no ships, they used horse-drawn carts to transport goods, which led to an increase in costs, and even the prices in Star Seoul rose a lot.

The canal was frozen for a long time, and it was not until almost April that it began to thaw.

"At the beginning of this year, why didn't I hear the news, and the water in the city didn't seem to freeze."

Lu Chensheng frowned. Could it be that these ministers concealed the news?

"The waterways in the city haven't been frozen, that's because the water source is continuous, it's all from the underground river, and in the city of Xinghan, it's in the valley, and every household is burning stoves at this time, and the temperature is converging, making the city quite It is warm and does not freeze.

But there is no such good temperature outside the city, and it freezes directly outside the city. "

The ministers have investigated this matter, and they didn't understand it at first, but the students from the college helped investigate and gave such an explanation.

After Lu Chensheng finished listening, he felt a little helpless.

Since the beginning of the Little Ice River, it is not good that the canal has been frozen for such a long time. It will affect the economy too much.
