Back To The Beginning Of Ming To Do Charity - Chapter 179

“Your Majesty!” The craftsmen knelt on the ground excitedly, their foreheads against the ground.

Lin Yuan, dressed in regular clothes, stood by the lake and said to the people around him: “Let’s try it out.”

A ship was parked next to it. This ship was small and unremarkable, but the biggest difference of this ship was that it had no oars.

It’s a boat on foot.

Lin Yuan just told the craftsmen to stay away. It took these crafts two years to build the ship. Fortunately, Lin Yuan had materials to toss them, otherwise it would be a loss-making business.

Even Song Shizhao didn’t understand why he kept spending money on these things.

Lin Yuan said: “The things they make may not achieve much in ten or even a hundred years, and it won’t let us get too much benefit.”

“But in the long run, what if one succeeded?”

“If one succeeds, then earth-shaking changes will occur.” Lin Yuan said at this time, the eyes were shining. “The first person who saw a horse thought that the horse could be ridden? Who made the saddle? No saddle At that time, the cavalry could not fight on the horse at all! With the saddle, everything is different. Could this change happen overnight?”

Song Shizhao understood. Since then, he has almost tried his best to get the money out and move it to the Craftsman Bureau.

The boat went into the water very quickly, and two crew members could take the boat, and there was a boat with oars next to it. Comparing the two, naturally the boat on the foot was faster, and both parties used their full strength. , Drew a back and forth.

Although the craftsmen expected this result, when they really saw it, everyone looked excited.

They made this ship!

They didn’t know how much time and materials they spent in order to make the gears rotate perfectly, and how many days and nights they didn’t sleep well, but the moment they saw the results, they felt that all the previous efforts were not in vain!

Even if they are just craftsmen, they can see the benefits of such a boat!

Lin Yuan is also very satisfied. In the absence of motivation, it is a very big improvement to be able to maximize manpower.

As for the steam engine—the boiler is also being built by specialized craftsmen, but after all, the theory is vague, and they have been tossing for a few years without making any progress.

Compared with the steam engine, Lin Yuan was very satisfied with the results of the gear boat.

Gears existed as early as BC, as did gear boats, but they never worked so well. The craftsmen used circular gears, which increased the life of the gears and reduced the wear.

The formation of the navy is imminent, and whoever has the right to speak at sea can occupy the world’s most wealth.

Daming’s silk, cotton cloth, tea spices, etc. can all open the door of other countries with maritime trade.

Now that there are so many people in Daming, it is difficult to pull up poverty-stricken areas by relying on domestic demand alone.

“Very good.” Lin Yuan said with a smile, “Let’s start building. You have to build a giant ship that you have never seen before, that can resist huge waves at sea. No ship must be able to hold at least two hundred people and have a fort. The place.”

“There are places to rest and eat, and to store weapons.”

The craftsmen did not dare to breathe.

“Caomin takes the order!”

Lin Yuan also said: “Everyone who participates in shipbuilding will get a reward.”

Everyone rewarded five taels of gold and a brocade.

Fifty taels of gold is enough for these craftsmen to eat and drink in the future. If they are lavish, they can spend ten years.

Since the bounty increased, artisans have made endless inventions.

There are many strange things in it, even You Ming has never seen it.

Although he has to affirm the efforts of these craftsmen, most of them are whimsical. For example, some craftsmen think that they can make flying machines, but they are actually tied to their arms with super-large artificial wings made of feathers. If he didn’t get up, he felt that it was because birds had tails, but people didn’t, so they made tails again.

Lin Yuan did not stop, mainly because he was worried that people would stop trying.

But after he got his tail, he still didn’t fly, so the man put paws on himself again.

Lin Yuan even felt that the man might completely make himself a bird in the end. I heard that he started to learn how to be a bird recently. He said that he wanted to eat insects like a bird. If he didn’t talk, he would just call and maybe he could fly. .

This is only one of them, and the others are even more absurd.

Probably because there are too many positive examples in the court. After all, there are many craftsmen who have successfully invented things, not only have money, but also gained status, so people who do not study well feel that they have found the ladder, especially some A dude who is not doing business.

These dudes don’t like to read the Four Books and Five Classics, they like to read “crooked books”.

Many skills have been lost, and they started to tinker on their own.

There are actually two people who fiddled with them. The family originally opened their eyes and closed their eyes to them. They felt that they would be grateful as long as they didn’t make trouble for the family. Anyway, there is no shortage of money to raise a dude. It’s better than spending time outside.

One of them, Xie, is called Xie San from outside. He is the third son. He neither assumes responsibility like the eldest son, nor does he need to forge ahead like the second son. He has a good baby. In this life, he can live without worrying about food and clothing without much hard work. .

Xie San’s favorite reading is all kinds of strange books. He saw trebuchets in the books and wondered if he could shrink the trebuchets so that they could not be used to attack cities, but to beat people.

Then Xie San started.

He first found a carpenter, and asked the carpenter to study with himself to find the principle.

Then use charcoal to draw the drawings and try again and again.

In the end, he really got it out. It was made of wood with some small parts inside.

You can push the small wooden ball out, this thing is a bit heavy, but men and women can hold it.

Only children will not work.

After the small wooden ball is pushed out, hitting a person will cause painful pain, but it will not cause any damage to the body.

Xie San also named the thing. He said that the big one was called the trebuchet, and his small one was called the Overlord.

No one else understood the connection between the two names.

Conscious that he was terribly powerful, Xie San took his overlord weapon to beat people everywhere.

They were hitting dudes who had a good relationship with him, and several of them broke off with him for this reason.

When his father and mother heard the news, they still came to the house, and they knew that their son had made a new thing.

Father Xie was about to kill the rebellious son. Mother Xie stopped her and said: “Master! Don’t fight! Our son is not doing bad things!”

Father Xie looked savage: “It’s not a bad thing?! Then you tell me what is bad? Will the court still give him a pennant! Our Xie family has such a good reputation, so this rebellious son is ruined! Many loving mothers Defeat! Look at what you spoiled!”

Mother Xie cried: “What is it! He is not only my son, but also your son! Now the emperor has set up a craftsmanship bureau? Just let those craftsmen make new things. Isn’t this something our son made a new thing? Maybe Being appreciated by the emperor, can you really get a pennant?”

Father Xie’s eyes widened: “Just let him mess around! Listen to what you say! A craftsman is a low-handed man! Let my son be a craftsman? Shame!”

“Mother!” Xie San suddenly widened his eyes and said, “You are right! I should go to the emperor! The emperor will definitely understand me!”

After saying this, Xie San ran away. Xie’s mother hugged her husband’s waist and watched her son run out.

Although Xie San is a dude, he still has a few friends. After listening to his request, his friend introduced him to Zhao Lin. Zhao Lin is now the chief of the Craftsman Bureau. After all, he is a serious candidate. Everyone thinks He is certainly reluctant, but the fact is that he did a very good job in the Craftsman’s Bureau, and I heard that he was appreciated by the emperor.

So Xie San went to find Zhao Lin. He went directly to Zhao’s house and waited at the door for Zhao Lin to return. After the early dynasty, Zhao Lin would still work in the palace and would not go home until the time for the government was up.

Zhao Lin also didn’t expect Xie Sanhui to come to him, wondering: “Why do you think of looking for me?”

Xie San hadn’t shown his overlord to Zhao Lin for a long time, and said seriously: “My father thinks I shame him, saying that I did a craftsman’s work.”

Xie San: “But I don’t think I’m a craftsman, and I don’t rely on this to eat, I think it’s fun.”

“I think if the emperor can see me in his eyes and compliment me, then my father can’t scold me anymore, maybe I can still be my ancestor!” Xie San thought beautifully, “Master Zhao, you care With regard to the Artisan Bureau, can you help me mention it with Sheng Shang?”

Zhao Lin couldn’t laugh or cry: “Then what’s the use of your stuff?”

Xie San demonstrated to Zhao Lin.

Zhao Lin couldn’t understand it. This thing hurts at most, and it can’t be used on the battlefield. It can’t kill people. What is it for?

But he still promised to help Xie San mention it, even if it was to give the Xie family a face.

So when he met Lin Yuan, Zhao Lin still mentioned this matter.

Lin Yuan: “Can hurt people?”

Zhao Lin: “It’s okay, but it’s just painful, and there is no skin trauma…”

Then Zhao Lin saw His Majesty’s expression with great interest: “You let him enter the palace and let him bring in his… Overlord weapon. I want to see it myself.”

Zhao Lin still looked dazed when he brought Xie San into the palace.

So you can enter the palace? Xie San, what kind of **** luck is this kid?

And the emperor seemed interested.

… Maybe he should read more books and make something that his Majesty is interested in?

What should I do?

Xie San entered the palace for the first time. It was as magnificent and magnificent as the palace he imagined. Every inch of floor tiles seemed noble and elegant, and extraordinary.

He followed Zhao Lin and asked in a low voice, “Master Zhao, did the emperor say to ask me for anything?”

“Did you tell the emperor, how powerful is my Overlord Tool?”

Zhao Lin’s face was expressionless, thinking to himself, your overlord weapon’s name is quite loud, but it’s actually a king’s weapon.
