Datang: My apprentice is Princess Changle

Chapter 104 Fans
Chapter 1 The Fan
There were still about ten days before August [-]rd, and after pushing the matter to Gao Shilian and the management of Datang Shangchao, Qin Yang returned to his normal life again.

Although he is the Secretary of the Household Department, the officials of the Household Department have long established their own system in doing things. Qin Yang usually only has big ideas, and there is almost nothing he needs to worry about.

Because of his various operations after he came to Datang, the tax revenue of Chang'an City was higher than in previous years. When the officials of the household department saw him, it was like seeing a god, admiring and loving him.

When Qin Yang returned from the Ministry of Industry, he was even celebrated by the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Only then did Qin Yang realize that they were afraid that he would just stay in the Ministry of Industry.

Gao Shilian's initiative to visit the door attracted the attention of these sensitive officials.

"Qin Guogong, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households should have a tacit cooperation recently, right?" After meeting Qin Yang, he drank the tea brought in by the clerk and recalled the baptism of eyes that he had encountered after entering the door today. Gao Shilian was a little puzzled.

Qin Yang replied helplessly: "Maybe it's because the weather is too hot, so everyone is a little restless."

"Qin Guogong, speaking of the hot weather, well, do you have any other inventions to help the Ministry of Industry?"

Gao Shilian said with a sad face, "Recently, many people have come to the little old man to ask the Ministry of Industry to help solve the heat."

"I asked the workshop to make a batch of fans before, but I don't know if it's the return of moisture or something, but the fans are all flawed."

"Now it's too late to buy good wood to make it temporarily."

"Is there anything that can be done well and can amaze everyone? If the fan is not good, if you can take out a rare thing that can relieve the heat, it can also save lives."

Qin Yang was helpless: "What do you think of me? A god-man who can conjure anything?"

This was a self-deprecating sentence, but after finishing speaking, Gao Shilian nodded his head.

Qin Yang's brain hurt again.

"I really can't help Mr. Gao with this matter..."

Just as he was talking, there was a ding sound in his mind.

[It is detected that the host is facing a choice. 】

[Option [-]: Reject Gao Shilian's request, reward: a thousand gold. 】

[Option [-]: Promote fans on the eve of the Oktoberfest, reward: a drawing of fans. 】

"Choose two!"

Qin Yang has long felt that there are too few varieties of things in Datang Shangchao, and there is a lack of household appliances.

In this era, there is no way to use electricity, and the fan drawings that the system can provide must be usable without electricity.

And it must be beyond this era!

He was communicating with the system, and Gao Shilian sighed in disappointment.

"It's the little old man who made things difficult for Duke Qin."

"Wait." Seeing that he was about to leave, Qin Yang suddenly said.

"I can help you, but craftsmen, you come and do it. Within three days, I will guide the craftsmen to make fans. I will use technology as a stake in the fan workshop. I want [-]% of the net profit."

"Success!" Although he didn't know what a fan was, Gao Shilian knew that if he missed this opportunity, he would regret it.

Three days later, in a courtyard of the Ministry of Industry.

A group of officials surrounded a thing as tall as a person, watching the craftsmen fiddling with it.

As the craftsman pulled a rope, the fan on the top of the thing, which was shrouded in a cover, immediately started to spin rapidly.

Amidst the heat, a cool breeze blew in front of me.

"It's so cool!" The person closest to him sighed comfortably.

It was at this moment that Qin Yang walked in with Gao Shilian.

"My lord! It's done!"

"Master Gao, this fan is done!"

An atmosphere of joy filled the small courtyard, and everyone happily said to the two of them.

Gao Shilian had seen the blueprints and semi-finished products a long time ago, but it was the first time he saw the finished products turning.

When he walked over, the fan had slowly stopped.

I pulled the rope myself, and the fan that had slowed down began to spin rapidly again.

Pull it, and you can almost turn twenty numbers.

If this thing can be popularized, not only will the person in charge of fanning be liberated, and they will no longer have to fan it all the time, but the wind that blows out is also a cool wind, which is far more refreshing than the wind from a fan.

Qin Yang looked at it, somewhat dissatisfied.

These ancient people had never seen an electric fan, so they didn't know how cool it is to run an electric fan. If there is an air conditioner, it would be so cool to lie in an air-conditioned room and eat ice cream.

"There is a long way to go, and I still need to work harder to succeed."

Thinking that after I came to Datang, it was only a short period of time that I brought such a big change to Datang.

In time, it may not be impossible to connect Datang to electricity, and let the common people use refrigerators and air conditioners.

"Qin Guogong, this first fan needs to be seen by the emperor first."

At this time, Gao Shilian reminded in a low voice.

Although Qin Yang had no respect for the imperial power, but after coming here for a long time, he gradually understood the people of this era.

He nodded indifferently: "OK."

The first fan born in Datang was immediately carried to the front carefully.

When the fan moved to Li Shimin, Li Shimin was also a little curious when he saw the tall thing covered with a cloth and did not know the true face of Mount Lu.

"What is this?"

Recently, I only heard that Qin Yang and Gao Shilian seem to be doing something together, but Li Shimin really doesn't know about fans.

Qin Yang didn't bother to say anything, so he looked at Gao Shilian.

Gao Shilian could only cup his hands and say, "Your Majesty, this thing is a fan."

"fan?"

"Look." He pulled, and the cloth covering the fan was torn off.

"Just pull this string once, and the fan will spin twenty times by itself."

As he spoke, he pulled lightly.

A gust of wind came head-on with the slowly turning fan.

"This is the fan!"

Li Shimin felt it for a while, and immediately very cheekily asked to make ten more immediately, and he wanted to use this thing to reward the officials.

Recently, there have been six happy events, even though there are not many rewards each time, Li Shimin feels deeply pained.

On the contrary, it is a fan, which only needs to be carefully assembled, and one can be made with wood and some parts.

The cost is low, and it looks very high-end, so it is perfect for rewarding courtiers.

He just used Qin Yang's stuff to reward others, and when it was Qin Yang's turn, he couldn't use it anymore.

Li Shimin gritted his teeth and asked someone to reward Qin Yang with a set of crystal cups he had collected.

Qin Yang happily accepted it.

This thing is different from a glass cup. Even in his time, the crystal cup was so exquisitely made that it was still very valuable.

"Guanyin maidservant, look, this is a fan!" Turning his head, Li Shimin presented a treasure to his beloved wife.

Empress Changsun felt the wind blowing over and was also amazed.

"Qin Guogong has so many ingenious ideas, it is really amazing. How did he come up with such an exquisite object?"

This is also the reason why other people can't figure it out.

But most people don't need to think about these things. They just need to know that the things sold by Datang Shangchao must be good, and that's enough.

"Princess Chai, have you heard? Tang Shangchao is about to launch a new product! I heard that it was invented by Qin Guogong again! I don't know what it will be, but it will be new clothes!"

"Hmph! It's just something opportunistic. I want you to go, but I won't go!" Princess Cheshire, who was wearing a short white cheongsam, snorted coldly.

The noble girls looked at each other, they didn't know who had offended this little ancestor again.
