Daqin: At the beginning, he revealed that he was a traverser, and Ying Zheng was paralyzed

Chen Qing drew a '△' shape on the blackboard smeared with ash on the bottom of the pot.

"The plowshares used in the Great Qin Dynasty were simple in shape, basically in the shape of a pointed cone. The middle is arched to turn the soil to the sides."

"The plowshare I want to build looks like this."

He roughly drew a 'herringbone' shape on the blackboard, and added: "The bottom is sharp and protruding, which is convenient for breaking through the hard soil. The wall can be made thinner, and it doesn't need to be as thick as a pig iron farm tool."

"Steel is tough and won't break easily when it hits a rock."

"The common people have suffered a lot from this in the past."

Chen Qing shook his head helplessly.

Fusu immediately understood what he meant, and asked, "Sir, Daqin has always encouraged farming. Those who have no means can go to the government to borrow farm tools, even if they are damaged, they don't need to pay for it."

"Your Highness..."

Chen Qing said earnestly: "Regulations are dead, but people are alive."

"Even if you are the first emperor, if you say that you don't need compensation, is it true that you don't need compensation?"

"Perhaps it can be done in Xianyang, or in remote counties?"

"After the farm tools were damaged, the people were already guilty and timid. They were frightened by the officials in the yamen with harsh words. Why don't you pay some money and think about it?"

Fusu was speechless, and lowered her head sadly.

Tian Zhou and the others had complex expressions, and secretly sighed: This prince has never experienced the hardships of the people, so how can he know the many worries of the people in Guizhou.

Meng Gan held his head high and held his chest high, pretending to be listening carefully, but really lost his mind.

He neither likes farming nor has much interest in making tools.

This trip is just to serve as Fusu's accompanying bodyguard, and to get acquainted in front of the master.

"Meng Gan, tell me."

"What does this plowshare look like?"

Chen Qing saw that there was a man sitting upright under the stage, with a very upright attitude.

Seeing that he was still his disciple again, he was immediately relieved.

"Mongan!"

"promise!"

When Meng Gan heard Chen Qing's stern shout, he realized that he was calling him.

He stood up abruptly, a little nervous for some reason.

"Master, I ask you, what does this plowshare look like?"

Chen Qinghu was frowning, he didn't know that the other party didn't listen to the lecture just now.

"Like Like……"

Mengan stared at the 'herringbone' on the blackboard, racking his brains.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Chen Qing's face became more and more gloomy.

"Master, it looks like a straw."

Meng Gan gritted his teeth and truthfully expressed his thoughts.

"what?!"

Chen Qing was furious, roaring and shouting.

"it……"

Meng Gan gestured with his hands, "It really looks like a bag."

Ding Deng Deng.

Chen Qing rushed over, picked up the ruler and slapped him across the face: "I think it looks like your brain!"

"Master, don't hit, don't hit."

Meng Gan, who was rough and fleshy, was also drawn so hard that he grinned.

He quickly put up his arms to block in front of him: "It's like a brain, it's like a brain."

Fusu smiled wryly and shook his head: "Sir, what you mean is that the material has changed, and the shape of the plowshare can also be changed. Make it lighter, but it can withstand greater force without breaking."

Chen Qing breathed a sigh of relief, his complexion finally looked better.

"exactly."

"The plowshare can be made wider and thinner. The cultivated land can dig out more soil without much effort."

He glanced at Mengan and shook his head depressingly.

The first emperor was really embarrassing!

Fusu has been with him for so long, like a white lotus that emerges from the mud and is not stained by any bad problems.

On the contrary, it's only been a few days for Meng Gan's product!

I didn't take anything else to heart, I just remembered that I took him to drink flower wine, and I only had milky Xuezi in my mind.

"Dead wood cannot be carved."

Chen Qing reprimanded lightly, returned to the podium, and drew the general appearance of Qu Yuanli.

"Brother Tian, ​​do you understand?"

He put down the loess block and asked with a serious face.

"The villain...you can roughly see its shape, but many details...you don't seem to describe it clearly."

Tian Zhou pointed to the few patterns on the blackboard and said thoughtfully.

"Because I don't know either."

Chen Qing said frankly.

???

Tian Zhou's eyes widened.

"What do you look at? This official is not omniscient and omnipotent, nor is he from a farming family. Is it normal not to know?"

Chen Qing didn't change his face, and said with confidence.

Tian Zhou hesitated: "Then..."

"That's roughly what it looks like."

"In the past, the wooden plow was directly mounted on the cow with two shaft arms. Not to mention the stupid and rough, it was inconvenient to turn around."

"Shorten this long handle, turn it into a curved shape, and pull it with a rope. It is so much lighter, and it is also convenient to change direction on the edge of the field."

"You fill in the details below."

"I'll give you three days to trial-manufacture and choose which one is the most compact and labor-saving. Is it okay?"

Chen Qing confidently threw the blame on Tian Zhou.

"The villain will do his best."

Tian Zhou bowed in response.

Chen Qing nodded calmly.

Qin Mo's carpentry skills are at the pinnacle, as long as he knows the principle, it is easier to make a Quyuanli than to eat.

Does this still require my own effort to think about it?

"There is one more thing, we should pay special attention to it when planting this spring."

"Mungan..."

Chen Qing glanced sideways.

"Master, this disciple really doesn't understand farming, please forgive me!"

Meng Gan bitterly said haha.

Chen Qing shook his head slightly, "You brought back a large amount of crop seeds from the Western Regions, including a whole bucket of sesame seeds, which will come in handy this time."

"Good job."

He praised happily.

Chapter 291

After Chen Qing traveled to Daqin, what he cared about the most about food was that there was no oil or water in the food.

The meat oil has a strong taste, and when it cools, it will condense into a thick white ointment, which makes people lose their appetite.

From the pre-Qin to the Yuan Dynasty, sesame was the most important oil crop.

Rapeseed is currently only a vegetable, and it needs to be continuously cultivated and domesticated until it adapts to the southern climatic conditions before it becomes widely popular in the Yangtze River Basin.

"There are also coriander, grapes, cucumbers, alfalfa, aloe vera...they are all in abundance."

"You have a heart."

Chen Qing's eyes showed approval.

Although Meng Gan has a rough and reckless personality, he also has advantages that others cannot compare with.

Thick-skinned and dark-hearted, he handles affairs properly.

The seeds Qin Zhongjun brought were either expensive seasonings like pepper, or novel fruits and vegetables like pomegranates and carrots.

He didn't bring any of the most useful sesame seeds, alfalfa, and grape branches that were inconvenient to carry.

Meng Gan is going to do his best.

When Chen Qing was cultivating aloe vera in the greenhouse, he accidentally found a dark brown stain in the middle of the leaves.

At first, I thought it was sick, so I picked it a few times with my nails, but it fell off.

After calling Meng Gan over to ask, he realized that the aloe vera originally grew in the palace of King Shache.

He saw the thick leaves, and the palace attendant said that aloe vera can be used as medicine, so he dug it out immediately.

The stains on the leaves should be the blood splashed during the fight, and it became like this after drying.

Chen Qing was speechless at the time.

It's all about tearing down other people's furniture, and you even planed the plants in the garden?

Really dig three feet!

"Brother Tian, ​​can Qin Mo still spare some people to give lectures?"

"You don't need much advanced knowledge, just teach Mengtong how to read and write."

Chen Qing asked expectantly.

"This……"

Tian Zhou shook his head in embarrassment: "After Master took over as Minister of the Ministry of Industry, a large number of brothers and sisters went to help. I have to answer questions for new disciples at night, and I really can't get away from it."

Chen Qing sighed: "Is that so..."

Fu Su took the initiative to ask for a job: "If it's just about reading and writing, ordinary civil servants can take on the job. The manpower can find a way, I don't know what the master wants to do?"

"Your Highness, what I want is not Mr. Morality who teaches Zhihu Zheye."

"In addition to teaching children to read and write, it can also teach them some arithmetic and the principles of physics."

"If we let civil officials come to teach, I'm afraid that the teaching will be ruined."

Chen Qing shook his head and rejected the other party directly.

Most of those close to Fusu were disciples of Confucianism.

What he wanted was a science student who was capable of doing practical things, not a literati gentleman who shook his head all day long and followed the principles of Confucius and Mencius as his standard.

"Forget it, let's think of another way."

Chen Qing waved his hand: "We must seize the time for plow tool innovation, and I will come to inspect it in person in three days."
