Daqin Fusu: It is difficult to start the battle

Chapter 8 Women will only affect the speed at which I review memorials!

Half a month passed in a flash, during this period, Fusu lived alone in the government affairs hall of Xianyang Palace, under the command of the eunuch Ling Han Rang, there was not even a female fly around him.

As a result, Fusu suddenly turned into a workaholic.

Women will only affect the speed at which I review memorials! … Brother Zheng’s 120 catties a day is nothing. If I can’t finish 150 catties a day, I won’t sleep! ... Fusu held a rabbit hair brush specially sent by Meng Tian, ​​and wrote the beautiful small seal script on the bamboo slips without any emotion:
Can!
In addition, he was also very concerned about the speed of the construction of the Mausoleum of the First Emperor. Under his instructions, the expired memorials that were piled up in the Xianyang Palace like a hill and were waiting to be burned were all thrown into the Mausoleum of the First Emperor.

The original "Lushi Chunqiu" compiled by Lu Buwei, as well as many books and regulations of Xianyang Palace, were all under his order, and a copy was re-engraved by the knife and pen officials drawn from the entire Inner History area, and it was also thrown into the Mausoleum of the First Emperor.

Historians of later generations, there is only so much I can do for you for the time being! ... Fusu thought silently of the astonished look of the archaeologists who excavated the imperial tomb in later generations, and mixed a bundle of bamboo slips engraved with simplified Chinese characters into it.

"Your Highness, it's done!" Li Cheng, the servant, ran into the government affairs hall in a hurry, panting heavily.

"Prepare the car." Fusu put down the bamboo slips.

"Here!" CRRC Mansion Commander Yang Xi turned and left.

A moment later, Fusu's four-horse chariot drove into the Lanchi Palace under the guard of hundreds of iron eagle warriors.

"Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life!" General Zhang Han bowed to salute. Behind him was a waterwheel about four meters high.

Despite the detailed drawings drawn by Fusu, several waterwheels were scrapped in succession before finally the only finished product was built next to Lanchi.

"Try it." Fusu ordered.

"Here!" Zhang Han waved his hand, "Start!"

Zuo Xiaoling Gong Shigui immediately commanded a group of riders belonging to General Zuo Zhonglang to open the sluice upstream of the waterwheel.

In an instant, the water rushed to the paddle, and the paddle shaft began to rotate slowly, making a creaking sound.

The surface of the paddle shaft covered with a layer of bronze is slowly rotated by the blades, and the gear at the end is tangent to the transmission wheel, driving a long transmission rod.

The invisible energy is quickly transmitted from the top of the transmission rod to the tail, then down from the gears at the tail, and finally to the top of the double-wheeled stone mill steadily.

The gear at the top of the stone mill made a loud noise, and then began to rotate slowly.

Two wheel-shaped stone mills face each other on the millstone.

In an instant, the sound of gurgling, gurgling, made everyone present widen their eyes.

"Let's let one let, let one let!"

Li Cheng, who hastily begged for a barrel of wheat from Shang Shi Ling, walked through the ranks of Tie Ying Ruishi, and handed the barrel to the waiting officer Zuo Xiao Ling for transportation.

Soon, the wheat grains turned into slightly yellowed wheat flour.

"Your Highness is truly a man of God!" Gong Shugui put down the wheat flour and bowed to the ground.

As a descendant of Luban, Gong Shugui naturally understood what the scene in front of him represented.

Although this small waterwheel is only used to crush wheat grains, if it is enlarged several times and placed in a place where the water flow is more turbulent, it will definitely be able to drive a larger millstone.

At that time, those ores that took a lot of manpower to smash in the past can be easily ground.

Not only that, how much manpower will be saved in watering the fields by connecting the waterwheel to the ditch?

In Guanzhong, the most indispensable thing is water, but the most lacking thing is also water!

Once a severe drought comes, the farmland near the river will be fine, but what about the farmland far away from the canal and the river?

The merits of the waterwheel invented by His Royal Highness can be compared with the Zhengguo Canal built by Zheng Guo, the chief of the capital!

When Gong Shugui was so excited that he was shaking all over.

Fusu didn't think too much about it.

Noodles or Roujiamo for dinner, that is a question! … These days not only can’t eat well, but also have no nightlife, it’s too miserable! ... Fusu couldn't help but shed bitter tears for herself.

"Let the people from Shang Shicheng come to see me, Gu!" Fu Su said to the Zhongchang attendant (the crown prince's official, not a eunuch) who was following him: "Gu must teach them how to cook a qualified meal!"

"Your Highness, no!" Li Cheng persuaded
Fusu crushed Li Cheng's courage to continue speaking with his eyes.

Being an emperor is really the best job in the world! ...Both parents died, and even the grandmother had long thought about Fusu's happiness.

……

construction site.

A group of ragged prisoners looked at the foreman who stood on the small dirt bag and shouted to them.

"According to the order of the crown prince, starting from today, the Efang Palace will not be built..."

Amidst the puzzled and joyful expressions of the prisoners, the foreman continued, "But don't get too excited. Although you are no longer working here, it doesn't mean you can go home."

"According to the new order, all those over the age of [-] will be moved to Guiyi..."

"I don't know where the government wants me to go and what to do?" A tall and thin prisoner with lettering on his face walked out of the crowd.

"Is this it?" The foreman looked at the person with some fear, but when he thought of the soldiers sent by the prince behind him, he suddenly became courageous:

"You are a prisoner, why ask this?"

Amid the sneer of the prisoner who engraved on his face, the foreman went on to say:

"His Royal Highness is benevolent. Anyone who has worked in Guiyi for five years will be exempted from prison status and re-registered. Those who are willing to stay will be paid daily wages!"

"This, is this true?" The prisoners suddenly boiled over. They thought they would die on the construction site, but what the foreman said made them feel like they were in a dream.

"Then, what about those under the age of fifteen?" asked a boy who was born on the construction site.

"Look at that!" The foreman pointed to a young man with a sword hanging from his waist and a downcast face in the distance:

"You go to report to him. That is a new official appointed by the crown prince. What is his name? By the way, Habayashi Lang Han Xin, it is said that it comes from the meaning of Lin Zhisheng, who is the wing of the country."

"Hey, I don't understand anyway, you just need to know that after you get to him, you will be soldiers!"

……

Xianyang Palace.

Putting in front of Fusu was a cup of clear water, a bowl of noodles soaked in fresh mutton soup, with fungus and day lily added, a plate of lamb brought from Beidi County that had been stewed for an hour, and A small dish is mixed with chive sauce, chopped green onion, dogwood, and seasoned with fine salt after pouring hot mutton oil.

A minimalist version of stewed noodles, with meat in hand, although there is no chili, but cornel is used instead... Sorry, beautiful sheep... Fusu picked up the fat-covered sheep tail.

When the fat bloomed in his mouth, Fusu had only one thought: as expected of the very famous Ningxia Tan sheep.

Fresh and tender without smell, soft and not rotten, coupled with the milky aroma and lubrication provided by sheep oil, it is tender and delicious with endless aftertaste...

In a moment, only the bare skeleton of the beautiful goat was left. After drinking the last mouthful of mutton soup, Fusu wiped his hands profusely, and a powerful voice sounded.

"Bring up the 50 catties of bamboo slips left today!"
