Chapter 49

"Why are these juniors so critical!" Liu Bei was very angry.

Zhang Fei didn't answer, but silently wrote down in his heart: So this white bear is called a panda!
"Such a statement can't be called a lie." Kong Ming happened to do a little research:
"There is a saying in the "Hanshu" of everyone in the class that cutting down trees and killing them is sometimes prohibited, and floods and droughts may not be caused by this;"

"When the soil and trees on one side are cut down, the torrential rain will carry mud into the river, and this will last longer, or this is what the younger generations call soil erosion."

Liu Bei was speechless. Since Ban Gu said it, there is really no way to criticize it.

"And now, smelting one catty of iron requires seven catties of charcoal, and one catty of charcoal requires at least three times the output of wood."

Huang Yueying recently took charge of the Craftsmanship Department and also had a conversation with the blacksmith, and roughly listed the data:
"Ten-year-old paulownia trees can yield three hundred catties of charcoal, but if they are all smelted, they can only smelt dozens of catties of iron."

This is the first time Liu Bei has come into contact with these data, so he couldn't help but feel a little shocking:

"And what is that coal?"

The four were speechless, only Huang Yueying said: "Or the coal that was dug out of the ground was once called Shi Nirvana."

Kong Ming felt a little admiration in his heart: You are indeed my wife!

"Then what about the online shop and porcelain firing that this younger generation mentioned?"

This time Huang Yueying could only try her best to answer: "Since they are put together, then this firing of porcelain may be born out of pottery."

As for the online store?Mi Zhu could guess that this store should be the same as it is now, but what does the word "net" mean in front?
Mi Zhu, Huang Yueying, Kong Ming are all like this, let alone the three generals Guan Zhang Huang.

"Let's leave now." Liu Bei waved his hand, "Kong Ming stays here, I'll talk about it later."

After leaving the hall, Zhang Fei remembered what his elder brother said, and immediately turned into the back hall.

Looking left and right through the moon gate, Zhang Fei didn't see a maidservant, so he could only shout loudly:

"Sister-in-law, my old Zhang is here to pick up Feng'er and go to the barracks!"

After a while, Mrs. Gan was accompanied by someone and said curiously:
"Three generals, but what big mistake did Feng'er make?"

Mrs. Gan still remembered that Liu Bei didn't know why she didn't look good towards Feng'er and A Dou in the past few months.

From time to time, I tossed and said nothing, and occasionally looked at the backs of the two children and sighed.

After asking, she had a hard-to-speak look on her face, which made Mrs. Gan very curious.

Facing Mrs. Gan, Zhang Fei was more careful, took a step back and said softly:

"Sister-in-law, it's nothing, but Feng'er has always wanted to lead the army to fight? It just so happens that there is no war recently, so bring Feng'er into the barracks to get acquainted in advance."

Mrs. Gan nodded: "It's fine if there's nothing to do...Feng'er is in the martial arts arena to the south, you can go find him."

Zhang Fei clasped his fists and left, hesitating for a moment before saying: "Sister-in-law Wanwang takes good care of her body, but if she feels unwell, she must go straight to seek medical doctor Zhang! Big Brother is now relying on his sister-in-law in the backyard!"

Mrs. Gan nodded demurely: "Yide is on his own."

Zhang Fei went directly to the martial arts arena without saying a word, and plundered Liu Feng to the barracks like a chicken.

In the high-profile side hall in Gong'an County, the servants noticed that the lights in it were not extinguished until the dawn of the day.

"It must be that Liu Jingzhou and the military adviser have arrived and slept together on the same bed!"

Niu Er, who was in charge of sweeping the house, made a strong promise, but the reaction of the people around him was flat: Please, what kind of news is this?

Jiang Wan's business location has been changed to the side hall, and he has officially become Zhuge Liang's secretary.

The next day when he was on duty, he knocked on the door for a long time before seeing Zhuge Liang, who was yawning, opened the door for himself.

"A military adviser didn't sleep yesterday?" Jiang Wan was curious, such a military adviser was rare.

Kong Ming scratched his head and said casually, "I had a long talk with the lord last night."

Only then did Jiang Wan notice that there was another figure lying on the mat inside, sleeping soundly.

"Gong Yan, you came just in time, copy this notice." Kong Ming picked from the pile of official papers on the table, and took out a piece of paper.

Jiang Wan took it carefully, and read it out softly: "On the twenty-fourth day of the first lunar month, I ordered the establishment of the 'Learning and Inspection Department', to read the words of the auspicious light curtain, and to detect what I didn't realize..."

On the other side, Kong Ming tidied up his hair and explained to Jiang Wan casually while straightening his desk:
"My lord and I discussed it, and felt that the words of the light curtain were only judged by me and a few people on the spot, so there were inevitably mistakes and omissions, so I simply selected a reliable person to be responsible for carefully investigating the words of the light curtain."

"Sort out the useful ones, and send the information in categories to where it is needed."

"For example, the iron filling method seen in the light curtain yesterday has been compiled into a book. Later, Gong Yan will send it to the iron smelting department of the Ministry of Craftsmanship, and find a senior craftsman to clarify its meaning to see if there is any progress."

"But if the model of the eight-ox crossbow is sorted out, it is a military forbidden item. You need to inform the lord and me about such things. I will find reliable craftsmen and soldiers to restore them and try them out."

Kong Ming didn’t say anything about the two-page method of rice farming that was leaked in the title “Heavenly Creation of Things”, but Jiang Wan’s actions from the military division clearly indicated that he wanted to go to the old farmer to verify the method in person.

Jiang Wan sighed from the bottom of his heart, his leisurely study time was indeed gone forever.

The entire four counties of Jingzhou were busy from top to bottom, even Liu Bei, who slept soundly in the office side hall until noon, was no exception.

After greeting Jiang Wan, Liu Bei went to the backyard to wash his face, and walked slowly outside the county mansion.

Of course, it was necessary to have some tenderness with Mrs. Gan, and told Mrs. Gan to go to Dr. Zhang for an examination tomorrow.

It's not yet the season for farming, but there are already many small pieces of farmland reclaimed outside Gong'an County.

Liu Bei recognized that those were all Jianghuai people who had crossed Tianzhu Mountain and followed Lei Xu to vote.

Although the weather is cold, you have to eat, right?It is not yet possible to grow rice, but at least we can grow some beans or vegetables first to get through the days ahead.

Seeing that they were already using Qu Li, Liu Bei smiled and walked past without disturbing.

Opposite to these scattered reclaimed fields is the paper mill next to the Hudu River in the south.

Liu Bei squinted and saw the rather eye-catching big round car by the river.

It's really big, this round car is three times the size of a common overturned car.

But it is different from the hand-cranked water dumping cart, this round cart can squeak and turn only by hydraulic washing. If you look carefully, you can see that there is a large bucket at the end of each keel of the cart.

These buckets draw water from the river, and when they hit wooden poles set on the bank, they overturn automatically when they are turned, and the water in them is also poured out into the pool of the paper mill.

When Liu Bei came here last time, there was only one overturned car, but now a low-rise building has been erected, and a group of people are carrying things to and fro, very busy.

Curiously grabbing a helper who didn't seem to be busy, Liu Bei asked:

"Is this paper mill's round cart still usable?"

The gang was about to push away impatiently, when they saw that it was Liu Bei, they quickly lowered their hands and answered in a respectful voice:
"Madam Huang's cart is so useful! Not only can it fetch water from the river, but it can also turn it without manpower. Madam Huang has also built an ingenious mechanism. This round cart can beat tree pulp and pull a mill!"

After the helper explained, Liu Bei understood that a group of craftsmen were helpless when making the round car, and they were obediently taught by Mrs. Huang, so now they call this round car Mrs. Huang's car in private.

"It's a pity that Zuo Bo paper has not been made yet." The helper said this with regret: "Ms. Huang said that it may be a problem with the ratio of tree pulp, and several big paper craftsmen have been trying to make it."

After some chatting, Liu Bei was also satisfied and left. In the end, even if he was reluctant, Liu Bei had to face the problems that needed to be solved:

Chanling, Mrs. Sun.

 Because it is still in the new book period, so I have the audacity to pursue it, after all, this is more important now.

  And the new book period can only be double-updated, and the author is writing a book for the first time. It is difficult to have both quality and quantity. A little more written every day will be used as a deposit for the shelf, because I will definitely not be able to blow it up that day, so I can only save it in advance. This will make everyone feel refreshed.

  Thank you again to all the food and clothing parents, thank you!
  Thank you [Feng Yu Wu Fei] for the reward of 166 gold and five baht!
