Li Xing thought for a moment and replied, "It's okay."

Isn’t it necessary to use stone mortars and water hammers to remove the shells?
What's so hard about it?
Although Li Xing has never done it himself, he probably still knows about it.

and many more.

Li Xing was fiddling with the gun for a moment, then quickly looked away from the gun and looked up at Chu Ze, his eyes gradually becoming darker.

If he remembers correctly, what this person is best at is the invention and manufacture of various types of equipment, right?

He suddenly asked this now...

"Do you have a better way? What is it? Tell me quickly!" Li Xing looked at Chu Ze with burning eyes.

Checked it out.

Chu Ze smiled triumphantly.

Judging from Li Xing's love for guns, this person must be very interested in what he created.

As for why it started with agriculture, it was because of the identity of the other party.

As the prince and the future prince, Li Xing should be interested in things that can develop national power.

Unless he doesn't pay attention to agricultural development.

Even if he doesn't pay attention to agriculture, industry, weapons, ore veins, there is always something he is interested in, right?

Unexpectedly, it was a good start and Li Xing's attention was instantly attracted.

Chu Ze raised his chin proudly and said, "Of course."

"Want to hear it?" Chu Ze teased Li Xing proudly.

Li Xing nodded immediately: "Say it quickly!"

Chu Ze didn't say anything immediately, but took out a pen and paper first, then walked to Li Xing and sat down, drawing and talking to him: "Today's rice shelling basically uses tools such as stone hammers and water hammers. Although mules and horses were used instead of manpower, it was still a bit slow after all.”

"Otherwise what's the use?"

Apart from the cattle, horses and people, there was only water.

In their country, water is used to drive it, but it still requires manpower or livestock to drive it.

What else can be used besides these?
Chu Ze's men are flying, and his pen is shaking like a storm.

After finishing the painting, Chu Ze put down the pen, dried the ink, picked it up, and showed it to Li Xing: "Of course it's also human power, but with this method, in the past, one person could pound a rose stone rice a day, so with this It can pound one and a half stones, or even two stones. The rice that used to take a day to grind can only be pounded in half a day, and the remaining half day can be used to do other things. Wouldn't it save a lot of time?"

Li Xing nodded.

He understood what Chu Ze meant, but the things Chu Ze painted...

"What is this?" Li Xing took it and looked up and down, left and right, but couldn't see what it was.

This mess looked like a ball of numbness. Li Xing seriously suspected that Chu Ze was deceiving him.

The confusion on Li Xing's face was so obvious that Chu Ze was embarrassed for a moment.

He forgot that only Yingtian's masters could understand his Ideological paintings.

Li Xing has not experienced "learning" and cannot understand it.

"Ahem, this is called a gear. Use these axes to drive the gear, make the machine move, and then drive the stone pound in front to make it automatically rise and fall to shell the rice." After Chu Ze explained, he looked at Li Xing, Ask, "Do you understand?"

Li Xing shook his head honestly.

What Chu Ze said was so abstract that he couldn't even imagine it.

And his paintings are simply from heaven.

He was even thinking now, if Kang Cheng had won the bet between Kang Cheng and Chu Ze, would they really understand the picture Chu Ze drew?

If you can’t understand it, isn’t it in vain?
Li Xing looked at Chu Ze's serious expression, was silent for a moment, and said sincerely: "How about you make it and let me see it."

Just listening to what Chu Ze said was like listening to a book from heaven.

Chu Ze: "Okay."

Isn't it just a model? It's a joke.Chu Ze agreed without hesitation.

He asked Zhao Si to get him some wood, then asked for a knife, and started carving one by one.

Li Xing sat opposite and glanced at him from time to time.

After looking at it, he looked away without any interest and continued to study the gun in his hand.

Simply carving a few gears is not a big problem.

The big problem is the meshing of the gears.

This requires very high precision.

Fortunately, Chu Ze is just making a model. As long as it can move, other problems can be ignored.

Even so, it took Chu Ze several days to complete the model.

At this time, they also arrived in Quanzhou.

Because he was pressed for time, Chu Ze did not stay in Quanzhou for long. He only gave Zhu Biao's letter to the prefect of Quanzhou, greeted him, and immediately asked him to arrange a ship to go to Ryukyu.

On the boat, Chu Ze... Chu Ze didn't expect to get seasick.

When I got off the boat, I fainted like a dog.

Li Xing and Zhao Si, who were pretending to be concubines, supported him from left to right, as if they were supporting a dead dog. Chu Ze was so faint that his brain was almost fermented. He vomited on the boat until the sky was dark, and he couldn't wait to walk at this time. Just drift away with your eyes closed.

With the loud sound of gongs and drums in his ears, Chu Ze felt that his brain was going to explode.

He frowned and opened his eyes, and saw a group of people dressed in local style, singing and dancing around him.

"I'm here to welcome you." Li Xing leaned into Chu Ze's ear and spoke quickly under the cover of his veil.

Chu Ze's body was limp and he leaned weakly on Chu Ze.

Hearing Li Xing's words, he reluctantly cheered up and stood up.

He spat on his bloodless face, raised a forced smile, and waved softly to these Ryukyu people.

Behind the performance team, a middle-aged man wearing Ryukyu official uniform was looking at Chu Ze with squinted eyes.

After arriving, he asked Kang Cheng.

Kang Cheng said that Chu Ze was very cunning and told him to be careful.

But looking at the man in front of him, he clearly looked like his energy had been sucked out by the vixen.

cunning?

He really didn't see it.

Shen Mian's drinking and debauchery were pretty good.

He moved his gaze to the side and looked at the woman next to Chu Ze with disdain.

Although the other party is wearing a veil, people can't see his true appearance.

But those eyes as bright as stars are enough to enchant you.Pointing at the strange yet familiar figure, he suddenly wanted to see what the face hidden behind the veil looked like.

The singing and dancing stopped.

This person immediately suppressed all his emotions such as contempt and disdain.

With a smile on his face, he greeted Chu Ze enthusiastically: "I am the official of Ryukyu, Wanqishen. I learned that Mr. Chu has arrived in Ryukyu today, and on the order of our king, I came here to greet you."

Daxingling is an official position established by Ryukyu specifically to welcome foreign envoys.

Although he is usually only responsible for reception, his status is not low, and he is considered one of the important officials in the court.

It is more than enough to welcome Chu Ze.

Chu Ze put on a smile and cheered up to chat with the other party.

"Sir Wanqi, I'm sorry. Today, under the orders of His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, I came to Ryukyu to establish friendship between the two countries, and for the mines. By the way, where are those people who came before Ming Dynasty? Why? Didn't you see them?" Chu Ze raised his eyes and looked around. (End of chapter)
